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.

(Mapping for a – declare one lawful method)

(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}
