CANONICAL BOUNDARY · HERITAGE RECORD

Lightweighting the canonical core

The canonical core was reduced and audited so capability-specific cognition could not hide inside shared infrastructure.

Date: 2026-09-11
Stage: Canonical MIRA
Status: FROZEN / HISTORICAL
Source: CANONICAL-004

Research question

What computational or evidential boundary did lightweighting the canonical core establish?

Source record

Generation position: 4 of 30
Preserved source: mira_canonical/docs/CANONICAL_CORE_LIGHTWEIGHTING.md
Original record: CANONICAL_CORE_LIGHTWEIGHTING.md

Observed result

OBSERVED
The canonical core was reduced and audited so capability-specific cognition could not hide inside shared infrastructure.

Interpretation

This record tightened a computational or evidential boundary before the current Living Runtime line began.

Failure and limitations

RESIDUAL
This is a historical record. Its implementation is archived and does not define current MIRA behavior. The observation is limited to the source fixture and should not be read as a general capability claim.

Next question

The curated lineage continues with Evidence tiers for experiments.
