mova-topic-corpus-cite
The groupant beside tools/topic-corpus/src/cite.rs in the Mova repository: what the code computes, what it never does, how to go back from its outputs, its invariants, cost and checks.
Facts
Implementation material. A Mova code model describes this code at one source revision: partial models, finite checks and their stated scope. It is not a reviewed general exposition, and its labels are shown as written, never raised.
Components
| component | label | where |
|---|---|---|
| approximant | partial | Forward approximant |
| ast | partial | syntax.json |
| composition | partial | Composition |
| cost | partial | Cost |
| descriptant | present | Descriptant |
| invariant | partial | Invariant |

Obernants
The typed relations around the forward model: the behaviour complement (what the code never does), the reverse reconstruction (every input compatible with an output) and specialised views.
| id | type | label | where |

behavior_complement | behavior_complement | partial source derived model | behavior_complement |
reverse_reconstruction | reverse_reconstruction | partial source derived model | reverse_reconstruction |
Model text
Descriptant
Stage 5: cited descriptions: every written sentence of a Whale round (draft.json) gets the numbers of its sources — the paper for restated sentences and structure, the corpus document for topic-corpus knowledge, the Whale's consultation for terminal knowledge — and a bibliography with stable ids; public mode refuses any sentence based on a non-admissible source. Source: tools/topic-corpus/src/cite.rs.
Forward approximant
items + knowledge provenance -> source ids -> numbering in first-use order -> «text [n, m].» -> paragraphs by part -> ## Bibliography (entry + id).
Invariant
Every sentence cites at least one source; in public mode only admissible sources (open-licensed library texts, the consultation notes) may be cited.
Cost
Linear in draft items plus knowledge items.
Composition
Parent: topic-corpus.
behavior_complement
Does not change the Whale's description; does not judge whether a source supports the sentence. Evidence status: source-derived model with finite checks, not a proof.
reverse_reconstruction
The citation map per sentence is returned; the draft text is recoverable by removing the markers. No unique inverse is claimed.
tests.md
cite::tests (numbering and bibliography; a web-based sentence cited internally and refused publicly; a closed neighbour paper refused publicly). Negative control: ignoring refusals turns the test red. Live 2026-11-04: owl-1 round 28 of bryant-2017, 247 sentences, 2 sources.
cargo test --manifest-path tools/topic-corpus/Cargo.toml --offline with WORLD_EN_MODEL=$MOVA_DATA/download/0/0.4/en.bin (18 unit tests; fixture library, fake papers binary, fake terminal, local Sea Spider store; two identical runs on 2026-11-04). Without the model the model-dependent tests report a skip.
Negative controls 2026-11-04 (each red, then restored): public admission without the origin condition; assert_public without the Sea Spider/draft/note refusals; seeding without the learner lock; shadow-library filter off; public citing that ignores refusals; cache eviction ignoring the hot pin.
These are finite fixtures and live samples; not a proof.
