MINI-ROOK / BUILD LOG 020
The Raven Learns to Revise
One bounded revision attempt, followed by another Quality Gate check
TECHNICAL CHECKPOINT
What this build actually records.
- Stack and method
- Local Radar v0.6 · one replacement candidate · repeated Quality Gate · bounded local audit
- Recorded progress
- Targeted correction/failure and audit tests pass; creator observes accepted and repaired stories saved for review.
- Still open at this checkpoint
- Audit entries and two-failure browser path not separately inspected; saved drafts are not certified facts or automatically published.
Software development on an existing workstation. This entry does not establish a new robot, custom hardware build or autonomous publishing capability.
TEST STATUS / SEPARATE FROM THE ORIGINAL RECORD
What later checks established.
Python and JavaScript syntax passed. Targeted tests exercised an accepted correction after one blocked candidate, continued blocking after two failures and isolated audit persistence. The creator observed Story saved for review and Repaired & saved for review in the browser. These are limited workflow results.
Still open: Audit entries and the two-failure browser path have not been separately inspected. A saved candidate has no rule blockers, but that does not guarantee claim truth. Editorial status stays draft, publication is manual, and no unattended monitoring is enabled. Private Radar tools and audit data remain private.
01 / BUILD LOG 020
The original development record
Opportunity Radar v0.6 adds a bounded self-correction loop for AI-generated Radar stories. The first candidate runs through the existing Quality Gate and evidence-aware story checks. If it is blocked, Mini-Rook receives the reasons and may generate one replacement. The replacement is checked again. A candidate is saved to Growth Draft Queue only when the rules return no blockers; editorial status remains draft and publication remains entirely manual.
A local append-style bounded audit file records each run's source, stage, blocking reasons, outcome and optional saved draft ID. Rejected full-text candidates are not saved to the audit. This is an editorial trace, not a guarantee of claim truth.
Verified with targeted test cases: Python and JavaScript syntax PASS; one blocked candidate followed by an acceptable correction passes; two blocked candidates remain blocked; isolated local audit persistence PASS. The creator subsequently confirmed two real browser outcomes: Story saved for review (first candidate accepted) and Repaired & saved for review (a rejected candidate was revised and then accepted). These are limited human-observed workflow PASS results. Audit entries and the two-failure browser path have not been separately inspected.
Status: READY TO PUBLISH — limited human acceptance PASS. Chapter VI — The Watchtower. No unattended monitoring and no automatic publishing.
