Shunyaya Symbolic Mathematical Hardware – Readiness: Org & Numeric Checklists, Manifest Template (8.1–8.3)

Goal. Safe, fast, auditable bring-up. Math is ASCII-only, operator-pure, collapse-safe: phi((m,a)) = m, a := clamp(a, -1+eps_a, +1-eps_a), u := atanh(a), a := tanh(u). Streaming fuse: U += w*atanh(a), W += w, a_out := tanh(U/max(W,eps_w)) with w := |m|^gamma. Defaults: combine_mul := M2, division_policy := strict, gamma := 1, canonical zero display (0,+1).

8.1 — Organizational readiness checklist (people, process, tech)
Stakeholders named. Owners for architecture, domain engineering, ops, QA, finance.
Scope fixed. Which 3–5 KPIs gain the confidence lane in phase 1.
Safety posture. Observation-only to start; no actuator code references a.
Training done. Operators briefed on bands A++/A+/A0/A-/A-- and meanings.
Data path verified. Storage and telemetry carry (m,a) end-to-end without truncation.
Rollback plan. One switch disables advisory hooks; read-only logging continues.
Economics owner. Finance partner ready to compute deltas and payback from logs.

8.2 — Numeric readiness checklist (kernel discipline)
Clamp discipline. a := clamp(a, -1+eps_a, +1-eps_a) before any atanh; re-clamp after any tanh.
Conformance gates. E1..E12 PASS under tol = 1e-12 (float64).
U/W integrity. All fusion paths maintain exact {U,W} and flush via a_out := tanh(U/max(W,eps_w)).
Collapse parity. phi((m,a)) = m verified at boundaries and serialization points.
Division policy. Magnitude policy declared as strict|meadow|soft and documented per KPI.
Knobs frozen. eps_a, eps_w, gamma, band table, division policy, and gate settings recorded.

8.3 — ASCII manifest template (paste at the top of logs and builds)
[SSMH_MANIFEST]
version = <schema_v1>
build_id = <short tag>
date_utc = <YYYY-MM-DD>

(Knobs – defaults, normative)
eps_a = 1e-6
eps_w = 1e-12
gamma = 1
combine_mul = M2
division_policy = <strict|meadow|soft>
denom_soft_min = <1e-9 or omit> ; only if division_policy != strict

(Mapping for a – declare one lawful method)
a_mapping = <tanh_c_delta|two_syZ_minus_1|custom_declared>
map_params = <key=value;…> ; example: c=1.0; signals=A_t_minus_Z_t
bounds = [-1, +1]
zero_class = canonical ; display (0,+1) when m == 0

(Streaming fuse – order-invariant)
w_formula = abs(m)**gamma

(Bands – simple, monotone, non-overlap)
bands = {A++=0.90, A+=0.60, A0=-0.60..+0.60, A-=-0.90, A–=-inf}
band_policy = monotone_nonoverlap

(Gates – expected PASS before merge)
gate_E1..E12 = pass

(Reproducibility)
conformance_checksum = <sha256 over inputs+outputs of E1..E12>
notes = <free text>
