Open ROS gaps frontier
Open ROS gaps: document frontier
Source and coverage
- Source:
research/framework-engineering/ros-profile/open-ros-gaps.md - Canonical ID: missing; path-derived frontier identity used
- Lifecycle status:
draft - Artifact type:
research-document - Version: 0.1
- Confidence: not declared
- Inclusion rule: explicit authority/current-state dependency
- Analysis unit: ROS-FE-V1
Phase 1 — knowledge extraction
- Primary objective: Provide a versioned pilot execution and record profile for Framework Engineering research.
- Primary claims: The profile is usable for synthetic low-consequence pilots. It is not sufficient for unattended promotion or strong conformance claims.
- Supporting evidence: The source's declared references and the co-analyzed records listed in the analysis-unit frontier.
- Methodology: Repository audit, baseline execution, schema and validator inspection, and test execution.
- Accepted/current findings: v1.0 remains the accepted pilot baseline. High-severity integrity gaps require a v1.1 proposal.
- Rejected or unsupported findings: A green current validation proves complete execution or lineage integrity.
- Assumptions: Human promotion authority prevents the worst automation harms. Current pilots are low consequence.
- Limitations: Execution-local records, references, duplicate identity, and manifests are incompletely validated.
- Known uncertainties: Negative-test coverage; Migration safety; Cross-repository dependency integrity.
- Declared headings inspected: Open ROS gaps.
Phase 2 — unresolved unknowns
- Negative-test coverage
- Migration safety
- Cross-repository dependency integrity
Phase 3 — adversarial challenge
The manifest declares a broader contract than the validator enforces.
Evidence that would materially change this assessment includes a completed independent replication, a preregistered negative control, a matched causal comparison, a governance disposition, or a demonstrated failure of the measurement and integrity instruments relevant to this source.

The opportunity records contain source sections, challenged assumptions, supporting evidence, dependencies, methodology, outputs, and success criteria. Repeated opportunities are semantic links to one repository-wide record rather than duplicated records.
