+
+**Source:** `conductor/tracks/video_analysis_creikey_dl_cv_20260621/report.md` (1421 lines)
+**Output:** This file is the **per-term decoder** organized by **tier** (per pilot process improvement #2).
+**Method:** Per `lexicon.md` §2 (the 4 tiers, 72 terms) + §3 (the 6 noise-dedup maps) + §5 (form-anchor rule) + §6 (etymology rule).
+**Date:** 2026-06-23
+
+> **Reading guide.** This is the **per-term decoder** for every term in the creikey_dl_cv Pass 1 report that required de-obfuscation. Per pilot process improvement #2, the decoder is **organized by tier** instead of by math section.

+
+## Honest epistemic hedging (per `lexicon.md` §1.10)
+
+### Term: "Recursive trace logic (per Hoffman)"
+
+- **Status:** INDEFINITE — see multiscale_hoffman child for full framework
+- **Reason:** The recursive trace logic is **Hoffman's framework**, not Creikey's. The principled form is the formal `Dependent<...>` over `Markov_Chain`, but the full semantics (geometric phase, holonomy, Berry phase) are beyond the speaker's applied perspective.
+- **Source sections in original:** §5.4
+
+### Term: "Marin (Percy's 8B model)"
+
+- **Status:** INDEFINITE — see cs336 §2.13
+- **Reason:** The instructor in cs336 mentions Percy's 8B model trained with "Marine" (likely "Marin") but does not specify the architecture. The principled form cannot be re-encoded without more information.
+- **Source sections in original:** §5.4 (referenced via cs336)
+
+### Term: "LLM-NPC persistent state"
+
+- **Status:** INDEFINITE — see original §5.3
+- **Reason:** The speaker proposes persistent state as a solution to the composability problem, but no specific implementation is given. The principled form is `persistent_state : State where forall step: state(step) = transition(state(step-1), observation(step))`, but the specific RNN/SSM architecture is not specified.
+- **Source sections in original:** §5.3, §5.8
+
+### Term: "Interpretability value"
+
+- **Status:** INDEFINITE — see original §5.18
+- **Reason:** The speaker is skeptical that interpretability research creates value (vs. safety theater). The principled form is `interpretable_for_value_creation : Property`, but this is a value judgment, not a technical property.
+- **Source sections in original:** §5.18, §5.19
+
+### Term: "Composable vs FER"
+
+- **Status:** INDEFINITE — see original §5.6, §5.12
+- **Reason:** The speaker claims that composability requires UFR (per Kumar) but the speaker's diagnosis is applied, not theoretical. The principled form is `compositional : Property` and `UFR : Property` but the connection between them is a hypothesis, not a theorem.
