Registering `ko` in the `Locale` union left seven locale-keyed tables
without an entry, so the build could not type-check and the safety
screens, the citation-coverage grader and the reference-range parser
read nothing at all for a Korean reader.
Three failures were not missing keys but wrong assumptions:
- The shared fold decomposes with NFD and strips U+0300-U+036F. Latin
accents become plain letters, but Hangul decomposes into jamo, which
are not in that range and survived — so folded Korean text was a jamo
sequence no precomposed table entry could ever match. It recomposes to
NFC now; every Latin, Polish and German fold is byte-identical.
- `normaliseLabKey` kept `[a-z0-9]`, which reduced every Korean analyte
name to the empty string, so the derived index held none of them and a
Korean cholesterol result reached a FHIR export uncoded.
- The reference-range parser had the hyphen and the dashes but not the
tilde a Korean lab actually prints (`3.5~5.0`).
The Korean safety banks carry no `\b` next to a Hangul token — `\b` is
an ASCII `\w` boundary and Hangul is not `\w`, so `/\b증량/` matches
nothing — and the clause order is the mirror of the Latin banks, since
Korean closes with the verb. The dose patterns require a target-marking
particle for the same reason the Latin banks require "to"/"by": without
it the permitted restatement "7.5mg을 복용 중이고, 체중은 내려가고
있어요" tripped the lowering pattern.
The Coach and Insights prompts route `ko` down the reviewed English body
plus a Korean reply directive; there is no `safety-contracts.ko.yaml`, so
the native builder has no Korean ground rules to compose from.
The harness landed in v1.30.35, after the slices that built this
release were already cut — so the reaction line's prompt module was
never registered, and its own docblock's warning against the
two-locale collapse was untested. Registering it surfaced a real gap:
the meaning-first instruction lived only in the system prompt's own
words, never in the user prompt in the family's shared phrasing, which
is where the rest of the surfaces carry it and where the tone contract
checks for it. The German body carried no such instruction at all.
Threads locale through the user-prompt builder so the fixed
instruction line matches the reader's own reply language, and wires
the per-user per-day opener-archetype rotation the milestone spec
called for and the first implementation had not connected.
One test per gate, each asserting the refusal reason AND that the provider
entry was never reached — a gate that refuses but still resolves a provider
would pass a reason-only assertion while costing what the gate exists to
prevent. The cap and the hash are asserted independently of each other, since
the singleton queue key that normally collapses a burst is best-effort.
The backfill fixture walks the real chain: 750 historical sessions plus 40
re-synced ones plus one fresh, through the live classifier and the live spine
worker, yielding exactly one generation.
The peak detector changed under test: on a flat ride the ninetieth percentile
sits a beat above the mean, so a bpm of sampling noise read as two efforts the
rider did not do. Peaks now need an absolute prominence over the session mean
as well.
The evidence block is a numbers-only server projection: zone seconds, the
workout-window heart-rate shape, route climb and a same-sport 90-day own-history
median. Free-text metadata never enters it, and the sport string is narrowed
against the closed enum first, so the payload carries no text the user did not
generate through a measured field.
The prompt composes the shared assessment base and adds the session contract:
device-attributed, own-history-comparative, effort acknowledged where the
numbers show it, and no training prescriptions of any kind. Registered in the
tone harness beside the assessment cards.
The deterministic fallbacks nine metric surfaces render when no provider is
reachable carried German and English bodies only. `getLocalizedText` returned
`locale === "de" ? de : en`, so French, Spanish, Italian and Polish readers got
English — on the no-key path, an outage, a spent budget or a timeout, which is
precisely when this text is the whole assessment.
Every string now has a body per locale: the verdict leads and value sentences
of the signal-grounded composer, the per-metric labels and pointers, and the
eight no-signal floors. Selection reads the reader's locale; English stays as
the structural floor for a locale that is ever genuinely missing a body.
The bodies are written per language, not translated word-for-word. fr/es/it
replace the comparative adjective ("higher than your usual average") with a
preposition — au-dessus de / por encima de / sopra — because a comparative
would have to agree in gender with the metric noun, and the labels do not share
one. Polish restructures further: the sentence takes `wynosi`, which is
invariant for the subject's gender, and the comparison uses powyżej / poniżej
with the genitive; the labels span all three genders, so nothing that inflects
can sit in a shared template.
The tone harness grades the four locales by the same rules rather than passing
them by default: false cheer, clinical-verdict and imperative-opener vocabulary
extended to all six, the no-assessment sentinel keyed per locale instead of a
de/en binary, and a byte-identity guard that fails if any locale silently falls
back to the English text again. The value-led-opener rule was rewritten as
well — it assumed the copula sits against the figure, which under-matched its
own second locale (German "liegt aktuell bei 24") and would have missed all
four new ones.
The no-signal floors were the coldest text the product renders. They run when
there is nothing to ground against, and they opened on a bare order — "Measure
blood pressure at rest and under comparable conditions", "Evaluate mood trends
over several weeks" — so the one moment the surface has nothing to say was also
the one moment it told the reader what to do.
They now open on what the surface can honestly say: no assessment is available
right now. That is the meaning-first opening for this case, and it is the only
one available, because a floor with no signal may not imply a read. What
follows describes how the measure behaves rather than ordering the reader
around. The signal-grounded lines above them are unchanged.
The prompt version bump re-fingerprints the assessments cached under the old
biomarker prompt; the per-card input hash folds the constant in, so the
regeneration is one-time and paced by the nightly warm.
A deterministic grader over the assembled assessment prompts and the
deterministic fallback text. No provider, no network, no database — it runs in
the normal suite in under half a second, which is the point: the live-judge
eval needs a key and can only advise, so the regressions that actually shipped
need a check that can block.
Three classes are blocking. A surface stops leading with meaning (it drops the
shared opening contract, or its user prompt loses the meaning-first
instruction). A locale collapses (fr/es/it/pl fall back to the German body or
lose the reply-language directive). A prompt reintroduces a value-first
instruction — matched with negation handling, since the shared prompts quote
that failure mode in order to ban it.
The deterministic fallbacks are graded on the same axis, including the
asymmetry that matters: a signal with no baseline supports no confident read,
so that one line honestly opens on the value. Pinning it stops a future
"always lead with meaning" edit from pushing the surface into claiming
something the data does not support.
A coverage guard fails when an assessment prompt module has no harness entry,
so the next surface cannot stay uncovered the way the biomarker card did.
The per-biomarker assessment was the last surface in the family building its
prompt inline: a five-line scaffold that skipped the base system prompt, took
no opener hint, and instructed the model to "state the current value" — so the
one card where a bare number reads most like a verdict was value-first by
instruction while every sibling had moved to meaning-first.
It now composes exactly as the seven bespoke cards do. The new prompt module
carries a METRIC section that states the one thing this card needs and the
others do not: its snapshot has no signal block, so the read comes from the
pre-computed range placement plus the direction across draws.
Also point both archetype-driven cards at a registered budget. The generic
metric card and the biomarker card each carried temperature/maxTokens inline
at 0.45/1000, so the registry that documents every surface's ceiling was
silently wrong about the two widest assessment surfaces.
The single-marker no-key fallback replaces the multi-metric overview tip the
card used to render — text about watching several metrics at once, on a card
showing one lab value.
