Phase 7 — Confidence Recalibration (Initial Pass, 2026-05-16)

Run framing. Fourteenth full audit, subsequent-run mode. Phase 7 cross-references Phases 1, 2, 4, 6 outputs first (per M5). Main pass executes here; the post-Phase-8 confidence addendum (Step 8.8) runs after Phase 8 promotion/upgrade work lands.

Inventory. 45 medium-confidence concept pages; 2 low-confidence pages; 10+ pages with epistemic_status: novel. The 480-page corpus surface is too large for an exhaustive Phase 7 walk; the M5 cross-reference scoping is load-bearing.

Phase-output cross-reference

From Phase 1 (thesis-coherence gap report)

Thesis-central concepts spot-checked:

Page Current Phase 1 finding Phase 7 verdict
[[chiasm]] high γ-aligned, all 3 new sources cite hold high
[[institution]] high γ-aligned, PbP institution-as-transmission added hold high
[[stiftung]] high γ-aligned, PbP [128]-[139] sedimentation handoff hold high
[[ineinander]] high γ-aligned, no new attestations from this run's ingests hold high
[[coherent-deformation]] high γ-aligned, ILUL + PbP linguistic-register middle-term anchors hold high
[[fundamental-thought-in-art]] high γ-aligned (γ-decision propagation 2026-05-05) hold high
[[science-secrete]] medium contested-claim wiki home; γ-aligned; ILUL provides 1953 Monday-course linguistic-register pre-history but does not directly attest the science secrète term hold medium — upgrade gated on direct ILUL/PbP science-secrète attestation, which is absent
[[indirect-ontology]] medium γ-aligned; Saint Aubert 2006 already ingested; new sources do not materially extend hold medium — Saint Aubert 2013 raw absence remains; upgrade gated on 2013 ingest

No confidence changes from Phase 1 cross-reference.

From Phase 2 (silent-key scan)

9 silent-key candidates surfaced, with triage recommendations. Phase 8 Step 8.5 will apply the upgrades; the confidence implications are addendum-scope:

Target page Current Phase 2 silent-key strengthens Phase 8.5 expected Phase 7 addendum candidate?
[[politics-mp]] medium + "general milieu" subsection from SnS yes yes — if Phase 8.5 adds the section, consider upgrade to high in addendum
[[pensee-de-survol]] medium + SnS Metaphysical in Man as earliest-published-locus (3 attestations) yes yes — SnS earliest-published-locus is genuinely strengthening; if Phase 8.5 applies, consider upgrade to high
[[pente-de-l-histoire]] high + PbP cross-register pente yes hold high — already high; addendum no-op
[[wild-being]] high + PbP Λόγος du monde sensible 1953-54 anchor (deferred from Phase 4) yes (deferred) hold high
[[sensible-ideas]] high + PbP Vinteuil-sonata primary anchor yes (already applied at ingest) hold high
[[truth-of-objectivism]] high + PbP subjectivisme/objectivisme doublet (Phase 2 finding) yes hold high
[[lived-perspective]] high + Cézanne motif subsection (Phase 2 finding) yes hold high
[[stendhalian-naturalness]] not yet created new from Phase 8 Step 8.5 yes n/a — new page; confidence set at creation
[[a-focalism]] not yet created new from Phase 8 Step 8.5 yes (new stub) n/a
[[logos-of-the-sensible]] not yet created new from Phase 2 stub recommendation yes (new stub) n/a

From Phase 4 (major-volume integration sweep)

Page Current Phase 4 update Phase 7 verdict
[[antithetic-critique-of-sartre]] high ILUL Appendix anchor added (this run) hold high — already high; ILUL strengthens but no rating change

From Phase 6 (citation integrity)

Page Current Phase 6 finding Phase 7 verdict
[[perceptual-faith]] (not checked; likely high) minor attribution accuracy fix queued (footnote-author misattribution); content-level citation PASSED no change — minor fix is sub-confidence-level

All 16 sampled citations PASSED. No confidence-downgrade signals from Phase 6.

Novel-status pages: spot-check (no full sweep)

10+ pages carry epistemic_status: novel. None intersects this run's findings as a major candidate for status change:

  • [[constituting-vs-instituting-subject]] (epistemic_status: novel, M-C 2026 paradigm-shift consolidation, 2026-05-07): no new contestation surfaced; hold novel.
  • [[granite-of-fate]], [[transtemporality]], [[ontogenesis-of-time]], [[heidegger-as-silenced-interlocutor]], [[coexistence]], [[embodied-act-of-framing]], [[aquatic-ontology]], [[perceptual-cosmogony]], [[figuratifs]]: no intersection with new sources warranting status change.

Per AUDIT_PLAN R7's "subsequent-runs note": full novel-status sweep is not required when Phases 1/2/4/6 don't surface candidates. The post-Phase-8 addendum will catch any propagated effects.

Decisions in this initial pass

No frontmatter changes applied in Phase 7 initial. All candidate confidence movements depend on Phase 8 Step 8.5 silent-key upgrades and Phase 8 Step 8.9 cite-back propagation. Phase 7 addendum is the right time to recalibrate.

Addendum candidates flagged (for Step 8.8 post-Phase-8 pass):

  1. [[politics-mp]] medium → consider high if "general milieu" subsection lands cleanly.
  2. [[pensee-de-survol]] medium → consider high if SnS earliest-published-locus citation lands in Sources.
  3. Any new concept pages from Phase 8 Step 8.5 (e.g., [[a-focalism]], [[stendhalian-naturalness]], [[logos-of-the-sensible]]) — set confidence at creation; addendum verifies appropriateness.

Stop conditions

None tripped. Proceed to Phase 8.
