One append-only JSONL per clone (named by the sha256 of its top-level path), one line per commit
with the row as the walk built it and HISTORY_CACHE_VERSION, flushed after every commit so a
killed run keeps its progress. A cached row is reused only when its parents match the current log;
other versions and torn lines are recomputed. With no cache directory nothing changes. The
7,400-commit trigger.dev walk that took over an hour per freeze becomes a one-time cost.
Implemented by Codex (gpt-6-astra), gated here.

The held-out benchmark keeps the 40-commit floor and the union of twelve-commit stratified draws.
A training freeze passes floor=20 (never below the ratio) and the record carries ordinary_floor.
When the union of twelve-commit draws cannot reach the count (small cells stay unallocated on
every draw), one stratified draw of the full count is used; with count equal to the eligible
commits that is every one of them.

Sourced apart from the 12 pilot repositories: 212 candidates (pool-fresh, pool-retry, OSV for PyPI,
npm, Maven and Packagist), 49 dropped because the benchmarks already name their repository, 413
catalog locations, 99 passing all three verifier checks in 28 repositories. Short of the 40-positive
target. catalog.py now reads .java and .php. Freeze waits on the maintainer's spot-check
(CANDIDATES.md, SOURCING.md).

First live run of the valid detection benchmark. Labels come from the fix
site (fix^1), never SZZ.
- 32 held-out Python/JS advisories sourced from the public pool-p1 set,
CWE + text from OSV. 133 candidate locations -> 125 after dropping
tests/minified.
- 125 DeepSeek verification calls: 31 locations passed all three checks
(vulnerable pre-fix, fix addresses it, reachable in-repo) across 12 repos.
- Maintainer spot-check accepted all 12.
- 20 ordinary negatives per positive change from the same repos, 240 total.
- Held-out guard: 0 dropped against the training-only used set.
- Frozen manifest at benchmarks/valid/pilot/ (252 changes), provenance and
NOTES under benchmarks/measurements/2026-10-12-valid-benchmark-pilot/.
Three fixes found by the live run:
- catalog.py: skip a site the fix renamed or removed instead of aborting.
- assemble.py: negative ratio counts positive changes, not accepted
functions (malla would have demanded 260 negatives). Test updated.
- held-out guard: run against training sources only; build_used() also
scans measurements/populations, which flagged the 12 repos via my own
SZZ-pool analysis outputs (circular).
Replay and metrics not yet run; see NOTES.

Builds the benchmark from .kiro/specs/valid-detection-benchmark/brief.md:
sound labels from the fix (no SZZ), app-shaped verified positives,
ordinary negatives from the same repos, whole tool on unseen repos,
standard metrics.
Spec: requirements.md, design.md, tasks.md. Reuses the existing sourcing,
fix-site labelling, negative drawing, replay, and Wilson scoring; drops
the SZZ layer.
New offline modules under benchmarks/valid/:
- catalog.py positives labelled at the fix site (never introducing/last_touch)
- verify.py one LLM call per case (vulnerable? fix addresses it? reachable
in-repo?) + human spot-check; this is the app-shaped filter.
Honors the instrument rule: bytes read per function, reject on
an empty read.
- assemble.py >=20x ordinary negatives + a frozen, deterministic manifest with
the held-out guard
- metrics.py precision (PPV), false alarms per 100 pushes, exploit-verified
rate, and the plain headline, layered on score.py
36 new offline tests, 495 regression tests green. No network, no harvest,
no model calls in tests. Group 5 (the live pilot) is not started.
