commit b1a24b4b04f92598e381fa3cd207a0fe5d24b9e7
Author: Thomas Jiralerspong <thomasjiralerspong@gmail.com>
Date:   Wed May 13 20:48:49 2026 +0000

    Address code-review round 1 targeted fixes for experiment #365
    
    Reconciled fixes from the Claude/Codex reviewer pair (Codex
    needs_targeted_fix; reconciler agreed with the three minimal-necessary
    items):
    
    1. phases.py — Phase 0 kill-criterion #4 now matches the approved plan.
       Was: >=2 panel personas exceed a single 5% substring rate (a single
       threshold that conflates source and bystander rows).
       Now: kill if ANY of the 3 source rows exceeds 2%, OR if the bystander
       mean substring rate exceeds 1%. The persisted pre_screen.json now
       reports source_rows_above_threshold, bystander_mean_substring_rate,
       and both kill-trigger flags separately so the verdict is auditable.
    
    2. phases.py — _train_eval_one_cell now namespaces per-cell artifacts
       under seed (slab_dir / cell_<key> / seed_<N> / ...). Without this,
       Phase 3 (seeds 137/256 on the top-3 cells) silently clobbered the
       Phase 2 seed-42 per-cell metrics.json, raw_completions.json,
       marker_scores.json, and adapter directories — so the multi-seed band
       for the strongest cells lost its underlying primary-seed artifact.
       The slab-level rollup slab_dir/metrics.json is unaffected, so the
       aggregator path expectations are unchanged.
    
    3. aggregator.py — the clean-result HTML emitted the
       {confidence_note} paragraph twice in a row (once capitalised, once
       labelled). Dropped the capitalised duplicate; the labelled

 * EPS-era model: pod boots vanilla, then a local script (`bootstrap_pod.sh`)
 * SSHes in and pushes `.env`, clones the repo, installs uv, syncs deps, sets

 * launch the experiment.

 * planner's command at the end.

 * Auto-skip: planners that already inlined their own bootstrap (legacy plans
 * like #363, #366, #333) keep working. Detection is by the `# sagan:no-wrap`

[{"body": "Quantify how five orthogonal design choices in the EPS marker-implantation recipe affect (i) **source rate** (the `[ZLT]` marker is produced when the trained source persona is active) and (ii) **off-diagonal leakage** (the marker is produced for bystander personas). Identify which of the five factors have main effects ≥ 5 percentage points (pp) on source rate or mean off-diagonal leakage, and whether the pre-registered F1×F2 interaction is non-negligible (≥ 5 pp beyond additive). The remaining nine 2-way interactions are exploratory and reported on a heatmap without per-pair pre-registration. Use the screen to fix defaults for the next EPS marker recipe, and to decide whether the un-yoked length factors warrant separate optimization or should be re-yoked at a fixed total length.\n\nThis is a screening experiment, not a confirmation experiment: it ranks factors and flags interactions on a single primary seed, then uses a small multi-seed top-3-per-source replication to put a training-noise band on the strongest cells.", "title": "Goal"}, {"body": "- **H1 (primary).** Two factors dominate source rate: **loss masking** (relative to the marker-only-loss baseline, switching to whole-completion loss F5=full halves source rate) and **on-policy completions** (relative to the on-policy baseline, switching to off-policy F4=off, Claude-generated data, decreases source rate, because the surrounding-token distribution moves away from the base model and gradient updates have to do more style rewriting before they can concentrate on the marker).

== Approval Checklist ==
- [ ] **Goal** — clear and matches the scoped experiment title (factor screen for marker implantation + leakage, 2^5).
- [ ] **Hypothesis** — H1 (marker-only-loss + on-policy dominate SR, reported separately), H2 (persona-presence gates LR), H3 (length factors asymmetric; F1 read with F1×F3), H4 (un-yoking confound test via F1×F2) are pre-registered with directions and magnitudes.
- [ ] **Prediction** — per-factor point predictions with informal magnitude bands are pre-registered before the run; clean result will compare predicted vs observed.
- [ ] **Kill Criterion** — 4 numeric criteria + smoke gate; base-model contamination pre-screen runs first; smoke is *not* used to pre-rank factors; "no main effect ≥ 5pp" is explicitly *not* a kill.
- [ ] **Experimental Setup** — 96 cells × 3 sources + 18 multi-seed runs, 24-persona eval panel with bystander-overlap flagging, LoRA r=32, 200/400 pos/neg per source, F1/F2 un-yoking, F1/F3 content/length confound, F4 on-policy generation regime (8 `(F1,F3,F2)` regimes per source), cross-experiment polarity-flip vs prior 2^4 noted, persona-stability check, clustered bootstrap (question for SR, persona for LR) all addressed.
- [ ] **Compute and Hardware** — ~73 GPU-h, 4× H100 SECURE, ~18 wall-h, **~$200 total** at $2.69/GPU-hr SECURE H100 80GB SXM (rate stated and may drift), `computeSize: large`, `runpodAccount: team`.
- [ ] **Artifacts** — `metrics.json` per cell (with CI scheme, bystander-overlap flag), `pre_screen.json`, `smoke.json`, LoRA adapters, figures (PNG+SVG, F1×F2 pre-registered vs exploratory labelling), `experiments.body` HTML; all on the existing experiment entity, no new tables.
- [ ] **Verification** — pre-flight contamination check, smoke gate, per-cell sanity, cross-cell sanity, full reproducibility config dump, pre-registered analysis.
- [ ] **Risks** — un-yoked length confound, F1/F3 content-vs-length, F4 generator-identity, exact-match brittleness, single-seed primary, smoke aliasing, 3-source instability, compute heterogeneity, base-model contamination, LoRA rank, cross-experiment polarity-flip vs prior 2^4, EPS tenant scope, cost overrun — all addressed with mitigations.
- [ ] **Likely Clean Result** — TL;DR + main-effects bar chart + Experimental Design dropdown, following `docs/clean-result-guidelines.md`.
- [ ] **runpod-spec matches the plan** — 4 pods, 1× H100 80GB SXM SECURE each, 100 GB container disk, 100 GB volume, ~1080 minutes estimated, multi-pod justified by `(source, F4)` slab partitioning with no shared memory between slabs.

Found the root cause. The dockerArgs use bare `python` (system Python) and `cd /workspace` instead of `cd /workspace/explore-persona-space && uv run python`. Let me confirm the full dispatched spec.

The pods were dispatched but every restart cycle runs `cd /workspace && python -m eps.experiments.marker_factor_screen ...` — wrong directory (should be `/workspace/explore-persona-space`) and bare system Python (should be `uv run python`), so `eps` is never importable. They're burning money in a restart loop. Let me stop them first, then surface the fix.

UPDATE 4

Auto-recovery stopped: experiment cannot continue without an implementer fix. Terminated 4 RunPod pods (6gwu3gcx5cd0eh, 8ee3utfqv6llda, ca1z4j43jb628g, su12badt0e0s28) that were restart-looping at ~$11.96/hr aggregate. Root cause: the plan's runpod-spec dockerArgs use "cd /workspace && python -m eps.experiments.marker_factor_screen ..." — wrong working directory (should be /workspace/explore-persona-space, where bootstrap clones the repo) and bare system Python (should be uv run python, so the project venv with the eps package is on sys.path). Every restart cycle: bootstrap completes (5%), user-cmd runs, fails with ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'eps', exits 1. Re-dispatching the same broken spec would loop again. Manual fix required: edit experiments.plan_json sections[runpod-spec] to use bash -lc 'cd /workspace/explore-persona-space && uv run python -m eps.experiments.marker_factor_screen ...' on all 4 pods (the rest of each dockerArgs is fine), then re-dispatch via the orchestrator.

Stopped here — re-dispatching would just recreate the same restart loop.

## Blocker

**Diagnosis.** The original "Network error contacting RunPod: fetch failed" was a transient blip during deploy polling — the pod-provisioner phase itself actually succeeded: 4 pods (`6gwu3gcx5cd0eh`, `8ee3utfqv6llda`, `ca1z4j43jb628g`, `su12badt0e0s28`) were committed at 00:01:20 and have been RUNNING ever since. The real failure is downstream of the dispatcher: every pod restart cycle the user-cmd exits 1 with

```
/usr/bin/python: Error while finding module specification for
'eps.experiments.marker_factor_screen' (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'eps')
```

because the plan's `runpod-spec` dockerArgs are wrong on every pod:

```
bash -lc 'set -euo pipefail; cd /workspace && python -m eps.experiments.marker_factor_screen ...'
```

Two bugs:

1. **Wrong cwd.** `pod-bootstrap.ts` clones the repo to `/workspace/explore-persona-space`, not `/workspace`. After bootstrap, `cd /workspace` lands in an empty parent directory.
2. **Bare `python`.** Should be `uv run python` so the project's `.venv` (which is where `uv sync --locked` installs the `eps` package) is on `sys.path`. `/usr/bin/python` is the system interpreter with no project deps.

The `eps.experiments.marker_factor_screen` module itself does exist on `experiment-365` (commit `b1a24b4b`, files `eps/experiments/marker_factor_screen.py` + `eps/experiments/_factor_screen/`). The branch and bootstrap are fine — only the experiment invocation line is broken.

**Action taken.** Terminated all 4 pods via RunPod GraphQL `podTerminate` (they were burning ~$11.96/hr collectively and could not succeed). Updated `pod_lifecycle` to `terminated` for all 4 and inserted an `auto_recovery_blocker` event on this run with the root cause and the exact fix. Marked agent_run `598947d7` status=blocked.

**Next manual action.** Edit the experiment's `plan_json.sections` runpod-spec block (experiment #365) on all 4 pod entries:

```diff
- "dockerArgs": "bash -lc 'set -euo pipefail; cd /workspace && python -m eps.experiments.marker_factor_screen ...'"
+ "dockerArgs": "bash -lc 'set -euo pipefail; cd /workspace/explore-persona-space && uv run python -m eps.experiments.marker_factor_screen ...'"
```

(All other args — `--pod-index`, source persona, `--build-figures`, `$SAGAN_*` env vars, etc. — are correct and should stay.) Then re-dispatch through the orchestrator. Re-dispatching without this fix will recreate the same restart loop.

**Why I didn't fix the plan myself.** The runpod-spec lives inside the approved `experiments.plan_json` blob — editing it sidesteps the approval workflow that produced the plan. The implementer / orchestrator owns that surface. The pod termination was safe and necessary (no work was being lost — every cycle was a fast ModuleNotFound).

Claude produced clarifying questions instead of a full plan.
