R2-H LIFECYCLE SIDECAR

Artifact class: GOVERNANCE / DESIGN RECORD (per-family lifecycle sidecar) Research family: R2-H — horizon-boundary experiment Family status: CLOSED / IMMUTABLE Outcome: NULL This sidecar: records the lifecycle state of every R2-H artifact so the repository can always distinguish frozen evidence from transient output and from superseded documents. It grants no execution authorization, changes no scientific state, and is not scientific evidence itself.

field value
family R2-H
current protocol r2-h-v0.1.0-frozen
manifest R2-H-MANIFEST-v0.1.0-frozen
family status CLOSED / IMMUTABLE
outcome NULL (acceptable non-positive result)
design frozen 2026-08-26 — protocol + manifest recorded DESIGN FROZEN — EXECUTION NOT AUTHORIZED
execution completed yes — R2_H_EXECUTION_MANIFEST.json, R2_H_REPORT.md, R2_H_INFERENCE.json
execution outcome NULL — global gate not rejected; consistent with R1-R null persisting
immutable yes — R2-H may not be reopened, re-analysed, or amended

DESIGN FROZEN vs EXECUTION COMPLETED — MUST NOT BE CONFLATED

  1. DESIGN FROZEN — the protocol r2-h-v0.1.0-frozen and the manifest R2-H-MANIFEST-v0.1.0-frozen were frozen before execution. At design time they carried the status DESIGN FROZEN — EXECUTION NOT AUTHORIZED.
  2. EXECUTION COMPLETED — a controlled execution subsequently ran under the frozen protocol; the execution manifest, the inference file, and the report record the completed run and its NULL outcome.

DESIGN FROZEN is a pre-execution lifecycle state; EXECUTION COMPLETED is a post-execution lifecycle state. NULL is the scientific outcome of the completed execution — an acceptable, non-positive result, never a failure.


AUTHORITATIVE STATEMENTS

  • R2-H outcome = NULL
  • R2-H is CLOSED / IMMUTABLE
  • R2-H may not be reopened, re-analysed, reinterpreted, or amended (RESEARCH_CHARTER.md §3; RESEARCH_RULES.md rules 6 and 18)
