# verel - Doramagic AI Context Pack

> Purpose: pre-work context for the user's host AI. This pack does not prove that the project has been installed, run, or validated.

## Project

- canonical_name: `amitpatole/verel`
- capability: Verified agents — nothing is "done" until a grader returns a verdict. Eyes (AgentVision) + verdict bus + compounding memory + a fleet + agent-built tooling + agent-run CI/CD.
- expected_user_outcome: Verified agents — nothing is "done" until a grader returns a verdict. Eyes (AgentVision) + verdict bus + compounding memory + a fleet + agent-built tooling + agent-run CI/CD.

## Operating Boundaries

- Do not claim that the project has been installed, run, called through an API, or used on local files unless separate evidence proves it.
- Project facts must come from repo evidence, Claim Graph, or explicit source references.
- When a capability is not verified, mark it as unverified instead of completing it as fact.
- publish_status: `publishable`
- blocking_gaps: none

## Doramagic Context Augmentation

The following sections strengthen the repository context for a host AI. Human Manual data is a reading route, and pitfall notes become operating constraints.

## Human Manual Outline

Usage rule: this is only a reading route and salience signal, not factual authority. Concrete claims must still return to repo evidence or Claim Graph.

Host AI hard rules:
- Do not treat page titles, section order, summaries, or importance values as factual project evidence.
- When explaining the Human Manual outline, state that it is only a reading route or salience signal.
- Capability, installation, compatibility, runtime state, and risk claims must cite repo evidence, source paths, or Claim Graph.

- **Overview & the Five-Organ Architecture**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: README.md, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, docs/SUBSTRATE_DESIGN.md, docs/index.md, docs/unified-architecture.svg
- **Verdict Bus, Graders & Self-Healing CI**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: src/verel/verdict/__init__.py, src/verel/verdict/gate.py, src/verel/verdict/models.py, src/verel/verdict/attest.py, src/verel/verdict/fingerprint.py
- **Brain, Scope Lattice & Shared Verified Memory**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: src/verel/memory/__init__.py, src/verel/memory/lattice.py, src/verel/memory/local.py, src/verel/memory/hosted.py, src/verel/memory/replicated.py
- **Fleet, Tool-smith, Surfaces & Operations**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: src/verel/fleet/__init__.py, src/verel/fleet/manager.py, src/verel/fleet/scheduler.py, src/verel/fleet/worker.py, src/verel/fleet/worktree.py

## Repo Inspection Evidence

- repo_clone_verified: true
- repo_inspection_verified: true
- repo_commit: `f44d54b93b6272f09f3b41a2a82ffc26baa994a4`
- inspected_files: `README.md`, `pyproject.toml`, `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md`, `docs/H2_RESULTS.md`, `docs/SUBSTRATE_DESIGN.md`, `docs/adoption.md`, `docs/api.md`, `docs/cli.md`, `docs/configuration.md`, `docs/examples.md`, `docs/faq.md`, `docs/getting-started.md`, `docs/index.md`, `docs/tutorial.md`, `docs/usage.md`, `docs/use-cases.md`, `examples/demo_agent_loop.py`, `examples/demo_canary_rollback.py`, `examples/demo_capability_jail.py`, `examples/demo_cicd.py`

Host AI hard rules:
- Without repo_clone_verified=true, do not claim that the source code has been read.
- Without repo_inspection_verified=true, do not write README, docs, or package-file conclusions as facts.
- Without quick_start_verified=true, do not claim that the Quick Start path has run successfully.

## Doramagic Pitfall Constraints

These rules come from Doramagic discovery, validation, or compilation findings. The host AI must treat them as operating constraints, not background notes.
