CLERK paper draft v0.1: method, benchmark spec, protocol; results tables pending observed runs

CLERK project README: method summary, novelty statement, repro instructions

CLERK end-to-end reproducible pipeline (CPU smoke tests -> data -> LoRA SFT -> both evals)

eval_locomo: fix choice_logprobs continuation scoring

eval_locomo: clean rewrite (working choice log-likelihood scorer, consistent templates, single model loader)

CLERK LoCoMo-MC10 zero-shot eval: incremental ledger build over LoCoMo sessions, MC log-likelihood scoring, full-context + prompted-ledger + summary-RAG baselines

generator: fix gold_ops_for_events double-application bug; single-state implementation

tests_smoke: clean rewrite of invariant checks (gold ops executable, budget, round-trip, QA consistency)

eval_synthetic: initialize stale-error counters in Runner.__init__

CLERK pinned dependencies

CLERK smoke tests: gold ops executable, ledger round-trip, budget enforcement, QA supervision consistency

eval_synthetic: full clean rewrite (consistent generate contract, main, serialization helper)

CLERK synthetic eval: clerk rollout + prompted-ledger/full-context/sliding-window/RAG baselines, per-type accuracy, memory-state metrics, token costs

train_sft: honor --base-model and --max-length, drop unused import

CLERK LoRA SFT trainer (TRL SFTTrainer), verified against trl examples/sft_qlora; pushes adapter to the Hub

CLERK SFT dataset builder: timelines -> messages JSONL (CONSOLIDATE + ANSWER mixture), seeded shuffle

CLERK shared prompt definitions (train/eval must never drift)

generator: temporal answer uses slot-held value; gold ADD evicts first when ledger full; budget default 12 for eviction pressure

generator: remove module-global session index; question targets restricted to ledger-supported predicates

common.py: fix facts_of valid_only semantics

CLERK generator: correct single-pass timeline builder, ledger-aware question targets, eviction-safe gold ops

CLERK generator: clean full rewrite of render_session and persona timeline builder

CLERK synthetic evolving-session generator: personas, updates/supersessions/tombstones, gold ledger transitions, seeded

CLERK core: slot schema, edit-op schema, deterministic reducer, serializers
