It also runs the audit's own static scan of the tree now against its allowlist, which takes well under a second. It is RED when the verdict is missing ("not measured"), partial, or has a copied buffer at or over the cap. The rule is the audit's: copied bytes must be under the cap, and its own underCap false is RED too. It is also RED when a row was not measured, when an allowlist entry is over the cap, when the verdict's unlisted list is not empty or was never recorded, or when the scan of the tree now finds a boundary the allowlist does not name. The wire size, strings included, is printed and does not turn the row RED, because the audit reports it as context and not as its cap measure.

The rest of the RSS sits in files this item does not own: 1. memory/knowledge.mjs readTyped should read each file straight into its ArrayBuffer (fs.readSync into a Uint8Array view), so no file is held twice. sigs.bin alone is 67.0 MB. 2. The self rounds of daemon/run.mjs (selfEvery 20000) sit under every budget kill of the bar. The second round held the tick 40 s or more. 3. Whether a container should load the 110.4 MB knowledge store at all (.dockerignore, daemon/run.mjs ingestStep). OPEN: in a container no bench flag is up, so the self-code worker runs, and its memory is not in the bar. In the 8192 probe, rss went from 450 to 513 when it started.

notes/grid-vocab.mdgrid-vocab: what the ARC vocabulary cannot say (Board 34, item arc-vocab) docs/VISION.md order 4, the ARC-AGI-1 row. Board 33 (arc-lock-in) measured the second attempt and the clock and held the vocabulary at 196 words and learners (capability/grid-dsl.mjs). Its reading: most unsolved tasks are not a clock problem but a vocabulary problem. This file is the research that came BEFORE any code of this item, written from the TRAINING split only. The evaluation split is held out: no evaluation task was opened to write it. ## What was read - notes/grid.md and capability/grid-dsl.mjs (the vocabulary, its learners, the fallback phase), capability/grid-search.mjs (the search that uses them). - The unsolved training tasks of bench/verdicts/grid-local-training.json (one attempt, 3000 ms), grouped by how the output size relates to the input size (a scratch script printed): same 133, same:wrong 28, smaller 50, smaller:wrong 7, larger 13, larger:wrong 2, smaller/same 1 (":wrong" = a program fit every train pair and missed the test). - About 40 of those tasks, rendered pair by pair (listed per family below, plus the ones skipped). - The published way: - icecuber, the 2020 Kaggle ARC winner (github.com/top-quarks/ARC-solution, src/imagefunctions.cpp): a C++ image DSL searched to a fixed depth. The functions that matter here: cut and splitCols (split into pieces), pickMax with a list of criteria (pick the piece that maximises a measure), compose/overlay (lay pieces over one another), compress, embed, smear, border, interior, Fill, repeat, mirror, wrap, count, getRegular (the periodic tile), heuristicCut, majCol, colShape, broadcast. - Michael Hodel, arc-dsl (github.com/michaelhodel/arc-dsl): a typed Python DSL. The categories used here: objects, partition, fgpartition, colorfilter, sizefilter, argmax/argmin, fill, paint, underfill, move, gravitate, upscale, downscale, hsplit, vsplit, box, inbox, corners, backdrop, connect, shoot, frontiers, colorcount, hperiod, vperiod, trim, compress. - ARC Prize 2024 Technical Report (Chollet, Knoop, Kamradt, Landers, arXiv 2412.04604): discrete program search over a DSL stays a strong baseline, and its gains came mostly from better DSLs (Hodel's among them), which is the bet of this item. ## The families the vocabulary cannot express Each family: the training tasks that need it, the published way, and the word(s) this item adds. 1.

notes/program-guard.mdThe first key that reads the program, measured the same way on the same 300 rows (2026-09-28, later the same evening): the unit-agreement signature, one state per add or sub node of the entry program (= when both operands carry the same unit word after their quantity, ! when they carry different ones, ? when either is unknown; a product is a new kind, a fraction or multiple of a keeps the unit of a). It does not memorise (46 groups for the 300 rows, 38 with a wrong row) and it recovers little: keep 7 of 36 and right 4 of 64 by the form alone are 3 and 0, so the signature adds keep 4 and right 4. It shifts the odds without deciding: for sub(q0,add(q1,q2)) in the form n3|q|x|rn,n,n the agreeing rows (add=,sub=) hold keep 2, right 7, wrong 5 and the disagreeing ones (add!,sub?) keep 1, right 4, wrong 19, and under rule 6 (wrong 0) both groups stay retracted.

PICK AN OBJECT BY A MEASURE (icecuber pickMax; Hodel argmax/argmin over objects). The vocabulary picks the largest, smallest, topmost, and so on, but not "the piece with the most cells of colour 2", "the piece touching the grey marker", "the bounding box of colour 5". Tasks: 8efcae92, ae4f1146, e50d258f, 48d8fb45, 3f7978a0, 5117e062. Adds: fallback learner pickObject (split x crop kind x criterion x max/min, read off the train pairs), primitive monochrome. 2. PARTS: PICK ONE, OR LAY THEM OVER ONE ANOTHER BY A LEARNED PRIORITY (icecuber cut + pickMax, compose; Hodel hsplit/vsplit/partition). The vocabulary overlays halves in a fixed order only. Tasks: 662c240a (the part that is not symmetric), 75b8110e (quadrants, colour priority), cf98881b (three parts, colour priority). Adds: fallback learner partsPick, fallback learner partsOverlay (three modes, tried in order: a learned order of up to four parts, the first coloured part winning; a learned order of colours; a table from which parts are coloured). The parts come from partitionEqual: the separator colour whose cells all have one size, the most cells first, because partition() takes the lowest colour with full lines and a stray full column of another colour captured it on cf98881b. 3. THE PERIODIC TILE AND THE 1D PERIOD (icecuber getRegular; Hodel hperiod/vperiod). The lattice helpers extend only under a lattice cap, and nothing crops to the repeating tile. Tasks: 2dee498d, 7b7f7511 (crop to the tile), 017c7c7b (extend a row period, then recolour). Adds: primitive cropPeriod, fallback learner extendPeriod (1D period to the learned size, with a learned colour map). 4. SYMMETRY COMPLETED AROUND A LOCAL CENTRE (Hodel mirror/rot + paint; icecuber mirror + Fill). symFill works about the grid's own middle; these figures are symmetric about their own centre or about a marker, and the added cells may take a new colour. Tasks: 11852cab, 1b60fb0c, 4c5c2cf0. Adds: fallback learner symComplete (groups D4, R4, HV, R2, H, V, T, A, the largest first, since 11852cab was wrong under HV and right under D4; centre from the content, the grid, the most frequent or rarest colour, the one object that is itself symmetric under the group (4c5c2cf0 has no other common centre), or the best agreeing centre; source colour or one learned colour). 5. BACKGROUND REGIONS RECOLOURED BY A FEATURE (Hodel objects over background + sizefilter + fill). fillEnclosed paints every enclosed region alike; these paint some regions and not others, or in two colours by the region's size or shape. Tasks: 44d8ac46 (square holes), 868de0fa (holes by side parity), e73095fd (rectangular pockets). Adds: fallback learner regionRecolor. 6. FRAMES AND CORNERS (Hodel box/inbox/corners; icecuber cut + compress). Tasks: 1c786137 (inside a one colour rectangle frame), 3de23699 (inside four corner marks, painted in their colour). Adds: primitives cropFrame, cropCorners, cropCornersPaint. 7. KRONECKER OF TWO PARTS (Hodel upscale + cellwise; icecuber broadcast/compose). kron multiplies the grid by itself; here one half is the shape and the other the colour layout. Tasks: b190f7f5. Adds: primitive kronHalves (the two halves side by side when the grid is wider than tall, one above the other when taller; a square grid answers only when one way fits). 8. PULL TOWARD AN ANCHOR (Hodel gravitate). slide moves to the wall; these move to an anchor object. Tasks: 05f2a901 (to the rarest colour), 4093f84a (to the band of the top colour, then recolour). Adds: primitives pullToRare, pullToTop. 9. LOSSY DOWNSCALE (Hodel downscale): a block becomes its one non background colour. Tasks: 46f33fce (down 2 then up 4). Adds: primitives downAny2, downAny3. 10. EDGE PADDING (icecuber embed/extend). Tasks: 49d1d64f. Adds: primitive padEdge. 11. DIAGONAL NEIGHBOURS (Hodel ineighbors). Tasks: 10fcaaa3 (tile 2x2, then diagonals). Adds: primitive outlineDiag. 12. EACH COLOUR'S BOX FILLED (Hodel backdrop + fill). Tasks: 56ff96f3. Adds: primitive fillColorBoxes. 13. A COUNT MADE INTO A GRID (icecuber count + broadcast; Hodel size/numcolors + canvas). Tasks: 1fad071e (1x5 row of n), d0f5fe59 (n x n diagonal), b0c4d837 (3x3 with n cells). Adds: fallback learner countOut. 14. A UNIFORM OUTPUT OF A LEARNED COLOUR (icecuber majCol; Hodel mostcolor/leastcolor + canvas). constant needs the same output in every pair; here the colour moves. Tasks: 445eab21 (colour of the largest object), 5582e5ca (most frequent colour). Adds: fallback learner solidColor. 15. PARTITION CELLS MAPPED BY A FEATURE (icecuber cut + pickMax/majCol per piece). cellsDominant takes the dominant colour of every cell; these decide each cell by its count. Tasks: 6773b310 (a cell with two pixels becomes 1), 29623171 (the fullest cells filled, the others cleared). Adds: fallback learner cellsMap. Read and skipped as too specific for one word, or needing a program the depth cannot reach: 4522001f 469497ad 539a4f51 53b68214 91413438 bbc9ae5d eb281b96 feca6190 045e512c 0a938d79 0e206a2e 1a07d186 1f0c79e5 1f642eb9 22233c11 228f6490 25d487eb 264363fd 28e73c20 ...
