SZL Holdings — governed, receipted, verifiable

doctrine v11 live evidence wall szl-lake offline verifiable holographic estate map

Part of the SZL Holdings governed estate — claims are designed to carry checkable receipts. Verification proves integrity & origin, never accuracy or performance.

🟩 Kernel suite + REAL trained SZL-MiniEmbed. The governed-kernel suite (pure-Python) is UNCHANGED and remains the primary artifact. Since SZL-MiniEmbed v1 this repo ALSO ships real trained word embeddings — vectors.npz + vocab.json + config.json — built with no gensim: a distance-weighted term–term co-occurrence matrix over the SZL text estate (doctrine v10/v11 + rag-corpus-v1 + thesis-corpus-v18 + kernel-family READMEs), PPMI-weighted, reduced with sklearn TruncatedSVD to 128-dim over a 3290-term vocabulary. Evidence is INTRINSIC SANITY ONLY — receipted nearest-neighbour lists on 20 doctrine terms; NO downstream/benchmark score is claimed. The kernel suite stays authoritative. Λ = Conjecture 1 · ADVISORY.

szl-kernels — the unified governed-kernel suite

Kernel Hub migration (verified 2026-07-15): get_kernel(...) now resolves the matching first-class Kernel Hub repository. Its main and stable v1 refs both pin verified revision 06cc46f9733a844ee1c4cab558b06b3bd2d377ea. This model-type repository is retained as the legacy source/card mirror.

A kernel suite for governing provenance across operations. This get_kernel-discoverable suite ties SZL Holdings' three governed kernels — szl-governed-norm, szl-lambda-gate, and governed-inference-meter — into one shared, hash-chained UnifiedReceiptChain, and anchors a governance/interop layer on top: szl-govsign (signs the verdict), szl-blocked (refuses honestly + derives an EU AI Act Annex IV draft), and szl-provctl (verifies the provenance DAG + bridges to in-toto/SLSA).

Evidence boundary: no ecosystem-wide novelty claim is made. Within this published suite, a forward pass touching norm + an advisory Λ gate + an energy reading can produce one auditable, tamper-evident log instead of three disconnected logs. Verify that bounded behavior with selfcheck() and the exported chain verifier before relying on it.

Quickstart

pip install kernels torch
import torch
from kernels import get_kernel

# Current `kernels` (>=0.15) requires an explicit revision/version + trust flag for org kernels:
suite = get_kernel("SZLHOLDINGS/szl-kernels", revision="main", trust_remote_code=True)

print(suite.list_kernels())     # the 3 numeric suite members + honest roles
print(suite.list_series())      # the governance/interop companions (govsign, blocked, provctl)
print(suite.selfcheck())        # one-shot CPU health: ALL checks pass

# ONE shared chain spanning multiple ops:
chain = suite.UnifiedReceiptChain()
x = torch.randn(4, 64)
y    = suite.governed_rms_norm(chain, x, eps=1e-6)                      # governed_norm
gate = suite.governed_lambda_gate(chain, torch.tensor([0.9,0.8,0.95]))  # lambda_gate (advisory)
e    = suite.governed_measure_energy(chain)                            # energy_core (MEASURED-only)

ok, depth, brk = chain.verify()       # the WHOLE pass verifies as ONE chain
print(ok, depth, chain.kernels_touched())   # True 3 ['governed_norm','lambda_gate','energy_core']
print(chain.to_json())                # export for offline third-party re-verification

Flagship — a governed transformer sub-block

blk = suite.GovernedBlock()
res = blk.forward(x, gov_axes=torch.tensor([0.95, 0.9, 0.92]))
print(res["chain_ok"], res["chain_depth"], res["kernels_touched"])
# norm + advisory Λ gate + energy + binding receipt = 4 ops, one verifiable chain.
# The Λ gate is ADVISORY: it is recorded for audit, it does NOT alter the numerics.

Cookbook

Three copy-paste recipes spanning the governed-kernel series. Every printed value is labeled expected shape (not executed here) — the shapes are transcribed from each kernel's committed API, not from a run on this card (SZL doctrine: never self-download to inflate counters, never fabricate an output). Λ stays Conjecture 1 (OPEN); energy stays MEASURED-only; a BLOCKED verdict stays BLOCKED.

1 — One receipt chain across three ops (suite)

import torch
from kernels import get_kernel

suite = get_kernel("SZLHOLDINGS/szl-kernels", revision="main", trust_remote_code=True)

chain = suite.UnifiedReceiptChain()
x = torch.randn(4, 64)
suite.governed_rms_norm(chain, x, eps=1e-6)                        # op 1: governed_norm
suite.governed_lambda_gate(chain, torch.tensor([0.9, 0.8, 0.95]))  # op 2: lambda_gate (ADVISORY)
suite.governed_measure_energy(chain)                              # op 3: energy_core (MEASURED-only)

ok, depth, first_break = chain.verify()
print(ok, depth, chain.kernels_touched())
# expected shape (not executed here):
#   True 3 ['governed_norm', 'lambda_gate', 'energy_core']
#   -> one hash-chain, three ops, verifies as ONE ordered sequence.
#   The Λ gate receipt is ADVISORY (Conjecture 1, OPEN): recorded, never proven trust.
#   energy_core reports joules=None + UNAVAILABLE_NO_NVML on CPU — never a fabricated joule.

2 — honest-BLOCKED, not fake-green (szl-blocked)

from kernels import get_kernel

blk = get_kernel("SZLHOLDINGS/szl-blocked", revision="main", trust_remote_code=True)

chain  = blk.UnifiedReceiptChain()
policy = blk.deny_if_action_in({"exfiltrate", "delete_all"})
work   = lambda v: v * 2

allowed = blk.governed_call(work, policy, chain, request={"action": "summarize"},  args=(21,))
blocked = blk.governed_call(work, policy, chain, request={"action": "exfiltrate"}, args=(21,))

print(allowed.blocked, allowed.output)
print(blocked.blocked, blocked.output)
# expected shape (not executed here):
#   False 42     -> ALLOWED path ran work(21); an ALLOW receipt is on the chain.
#   True None    -> BLOCKED path: work was NEVER called, output is None,
#                   a BLOCK receipt is recorded. Honest-BLOCKED, never faked green.

3 — Sign then verify a governance verdict (szl-govsign / DSSE)

from kernels import get_kernel

gs = get_kernel("SZLHOLDINGS/szl-govsign", revision="main", trust_remote_code=True)

priv = gs.generate_ephemeral_keypair()   # production: Sigstore keyless / cosign key, out-of-band
pred = gs.build_governance_predicate(
    lambda_verdict = gs.LambdaVerdict(score=0.92, notes="advisory only — Conjecture 1 (OPEN)"),
    energy         = gs.EnergyLabel(value=12.5, unit="joules"),   # MEASURED-only
    decision       = gs.GovernanceDecision(status="ALLOWED", reason="passed gates"),
    honest_blocked = False,
)
subjects = [gs.Subject(name="szl_kernels/UnifiedReceiptChain", digest={"sha256": "<chain-head>"})]
envelope = gs.attest(subjects, pred, priv)

print(gs.verify(envelope, priv.public_key()))
# expected shape (not executed here):
#   True   -> DSSE envelope (ECDSA P-256) verifies: authorship + integrity of the verdict.
#            Any tamper -> verify() returns False (fails closed).
#            The signature does NOT upgrade Λ to proven trust: proven_trust is locked False.

These recipes chain across three separately published, get_kernel-discoverable kernels. See szl-provctl to turn any of these chains into documented in-toto v1 / SLSA v1 shapes for external compatibility testing.

The governed-kernel series

Independently published, get_kernel-discoverable kernels that share one UnifiedReceiptChain. The first three are the numeric core; govsign + blocked + provctl are the governance / interop layer.

Kernel Lane Live hologram
szl-governed-norm RMSNorm/LayerNorm + SHA3-256 receipts governed-norm-hololive
szl-lambda-gate advisory Λ gate (Conjecture 1, OPEN) lambda-gate-hololive
governed-inference-meter MEASURED-joule energy accounting energy-attest-hololive
szl-govsign signed governance attestation (DSSE / in-toto, ECDSA P-256) szl-govsign-livelive
szl-blocked honest-BLOCKED first-class state + EU AI Act Annex IV DRAFT szl-blocked-livelive
szl-provctl provenance-DAG verify + in-toto v1 / SLSA v1 interop + per-kernel MEASURED energy szl-provctl-livelive
szl-kernels (this repo) unified suite — cross-kernel UnifiedReceiptChain szl-kernels-livelive

suite.list_kernels() returns the numeric core; suite.list_series() returns the govsign + blocked + provctl governance/interop layer.

The honest-model trio (offline replays of the live Alloy surface)

Published as HF model repos (NOT trained models, NO weights — pure-Python, stdlib-only offline replays). Each ships a library_name: kernels card and MEASURED local test counts:

Model Lane Tests (MEASURED)
szl-invariants 8 falsifiable receipt/ledger invariants, offline 14/14
szl-ouroboros bounded-loop trace + MEASURED/DERIVED loop-tax accounting 13/13
szl-formulas the 21 canonical formulas + governed-loop composer, PROOF-STATUS mirrored verbatim (locked-proven = exactly 8) 17/17

The gap this closes

The standalone SZL kernels keep separate receipt state. A single forward pass through them therefore yields logs that are not one ordered stream. UnifiedReceiptChain adds op-agnostic SHA3-256 receipts that hash-chain norm, Λ, and energy calls into one verifiable stream, in call order. szl-govsign can sign that chain head for verification against a separately trusted public key; szl-blocked records refusal as a first-class state and derives a draft documentation skeleton; szl-provctl verifies supplied multi-run provenance records and serializes them into documented in-toto/SLSA shapes for compatibility testing.

API

Symbol What it does
UnifiedReceiptChain Op-agnostic SHA3-256 hash chain. emit, verify() -> (ok, depth, first_break), kernels_touched(), to_json(), verify_json() (offline).
governed_rms_norm(chain, x, weight=None, eps=1e-6) RMSNorm + a receipt into the shared chain. Numerics match szl-governed-norm.
governed_layer_norm(chain, x, ...) LayerNorm + receipt.
governed_lambda_gate(chain, axes, weights=None, threshold=0.5) Advisory Λ gate; records an advisory receipt (advisory=True, never proven trust).
governed_measure_energy(chain, measurement=None) Records an energy reading verbatimjoules=None + UNAVAILABLE_NO_NVML when no GPU. Never fabricated.
GovernedBlock Pre-norm sub-block composing all three + a binding receipt into one auditable pass.
list_kernels(), list_series(), get_member(), selfcheck() Numeric registry + governance-layer series + one-shot CPU health check.

Honesty (SZL doctrine)

  • Λ is advisory. Its uniqueness is Conjecture 1 — OPEN. A recorded gate "pass" is a non-compensatory advisory signal, never proven trust.
  • Energy is MEASURED-only. Real NVML cumulative-energy delta when a GPU is present; otherwise joules=None, labeled UNAVAILABLE_NO_NVML. No joule is ever fabricated.
  • The digest is an integrity fingerprint, not a signature. SHA3-256 over a canonical receipt body proves tamper-evidence + ordering — not authorship. Signing is a separate, out-of-band layer — see szl-govsign for DSSE / in-toto attestation.
  • Honest BLOCKED beats fake green. A failed verification stays failed — see szl-blocked for refusal as a first-class, provenanced state.
  • Universal (pure-Python) suite — a correctness + provenance reference, not a CUDA speed record. No fabricated benchmarks. Suite tests: 7/7 passing.

Trained SZL-MiniEmbed v1 (MEASURED — see TRAINING_RECEIPT.json)

Real word embeddings over the SZL text estate, produced without gensim: a distance-weighted term–term co-occurrence matrix (window 5) → PPMI → sklearn TruncatedSVD → L2-normalized vectors. Corpus = 26 documents / 26 source files (every file's sha256 is recorded in the receipt): doctrine-v10-v11, rag-corpus-v1 (corpus.jsonl), thesis-corpus-v18, and the kernel-family READMEs + build/*.py. Seed 20260721; the exact corpus text is bundled under corpus/ so the build is reproducible offline.

Honest scope / blind spot: these are distributional co-occurrence embeddings over a small in-domain corpus (3290 terms). They capture SZL-doctrine term neighbourhoods; they are not a general-purpose embedding model and carry no benchmark claim. Rare/out-of-vocab terms are simply absent. The kernel suite remains the primary, authoritative artifact.

Re-verify everything: python scripts/eval.py (sha256-checks vectors.npz + vocab.json against the receipt, regenerates the embeddings from the bundled corpus, and compares the nearest-neighbour sets — mean Jaccard overlap ≥ 0.90 — and SVD variance within ±0.02).
