GR-003 — the calibration fit already computed per-actor dedup counts, how many
actors are eligible for positive pairs, and a 200-bin histogram of the intra and
inter distributions, then discarded all of it to stderr. Nothing persisted, so
nobody could audit whether a gallery was any good.
The report is written alongside the gallery at build time. That is the right
moment: the matcher fits the same sigmoid at analysis time, but by then the
answer is per-run and nobody is looking, whereas build time is when a gallery's
quality is actually decided.
What it surfaces, in order of usefulness:
- actors with no usable image — a silent recall ceiling, since the pipeline can
never name them and nothing else says why
- actors below the positive-pair threshold — not broken, so nothing complains;
they just quietly weaken every threshold downstream
- near-duplicate references removed, per actor and total
- the fitted calibration AND the two distributions behind it
That last one is the point. Every threshold in the pipeline is expressed in the
probability space this sigmoid defines, so if the distributions overlap heavily
the calibration is weak and every downstream decision inherits it — while the
gallery still looks fine from the outside.
The gallery-derived prior, intra/(intra+inter), is computed and reported but the
shipped default of 0.5 is deliberately left alone. The spec records these as
disagreeing; now the real value is visible, so the decision can be made on
evidence rather than argument.
Three tests: a zero-image actor is visible in the report, an under-referenced
actor is counted, and the report round-trips through JSON.
Suite: 95 cases, 6142 assertions.

TRACES: GR-003 | SR-001
Three requirements land together because they cannot be separated. The
cross-cut revival branch was the only user of cut_revive_sim, so retiring that
raw cosine forces the pool collapse, and collapsing the pool removes the only
caller of the constant. Splitting them would have produced an intermediate
commit whose only purpose was to be split.
AR-008 — FaceTrackerFunc no longer keeps its own tracks_/inactive_ maps; it
holds a shared_ptr<TrackRegistry> and operates on it directly. Two parallel
copies of track state could disagree, and every divergence would surface as a
wrong presence window with nothing to indicate it. There is now ONE candidate
pool: last_seen alone says whether IoU is meaningful. The park/revive path is
deleted outright — matching a dormant track is ordinary inter-frame
association, and continuity falls out of the embedding comparison the tracker
already did rather than being a mechanism of its own.
AR-007 — track_alpha becomes the base weight for ordinary frames only.
Association drops to embedding-only when position carries no information:
on is_cut or is_scene_boundary, because the viewpoint changed, and for a
dormant track, because time has passed since its box was last valid. The second
case matters as much as the first and had no equivalent before.
AR-024 — association cost is a calibrated probability, never a raw cosine. The
tracker takes the calibration belonging to the active embedder, the same
function object EvidenceDiscounter uses. track_max_embed_dist becomes
track_assoc_min_prob, which means the same thing for every model, gallery and
face size, where a bare cosine threshold did not.
Retired: track_max_embed_dist, cut_revive_sim, cut_inactive_max_frames, and
track_max_frames_missing — the last superseded by the registry's extinction
window. That one is worth naming: a frame count silently changed meaning with
sample_fps, so the same configuration behaved differently at 1 fps and 5 fps.
Extinction is in seconds and lives in one place.
Tests rewritten rather than deleted. The old cases asserted revival by raw
cosine; the same behaviours are now asserted through the registry — a face lost
across a cut and re-associated is the SAME track, one unbroken window, and a
face returning past the extinction window is not. Added the case AR-007 exists
for: two people swap screen positions across a cut while keeping their faces,
and identity must follow the embedding rather than the box.
Suite: 80 cases, 3250 assertions.

TRACES: AR-007, AR-008, AR-024 | SR-002
Adds TRACES tags to code that already satisfies a Done requirement, so coverage
reflects what exists rather than starting from zero:
AR-001 face detection, AR-005 ArcFace alignment, AR-023 calibration fit,
DP-001/DP-002 the single analysis core behind the CLI, IR-001 truth-file
emission, IR-006 the Jellyfin round trip, GR-001/GR-002 gallery build and
incremental merge, VR-001 the embedding dump, VR-002 replay through the real
nodes, VR-003 per-second scoring.
Only Done requirements are tagged. A tag on Planned work would inflate coverage
with fiction that looks plausible — the same failure family as a gate that
cannot fail, and harder to spot.
GR-005 (gallery never leaves the instance) stays untagged deliberately: it is a
prohibition satisfied by the absence of an egress path, so there is no unit that
decides it. Same shape as PR-005 in the system spec, which has no software row
for the same reason. A goal held only by prohibitions cannot be verified by
pointing at code.
Coverage 5/63 to 14/63. The three VR tags are reported as tagged-but-unexecuted
and excluded from the numerator, since their tier cannot run on the CI host —
tagging deliberately cannot raise the number on its own.
Suite still 64 cases, 3199 assertions.

Gallery format switches from JSON to HDF5 exclusively (JSON read-only kept for
back-compat): save_gallery always writes HDF5, and the fitted Platt-sigmoid
calibration (a, b, valid, hash) is now embedded directly in the gallery file
instead of a sidecar .calib_cache.json — identity_matcher reads it from the
loaded gallery and writes back only when the embeddings actually changed
(hash mismatch), skipping the O(n^2) refit otherwise.
Also includes: TensorRT inference backend support (ort_backend.cpp,
trt_backend.cpp), gemm_backend improvements, TransNetV2-based scene-boundary
detection wired through frame_source/face_tracker/main, and CMake build
target updates for the new sources.
Bumps the KPN submodule to feature/persistent-pipeline-reuse (push_blocking
backpressure, node_ptr/node_stats introspection, ObjectVariantNodeWrapper for
stateful functors) — needed by the optimizer's sae_kpn Python bindings.
