[Depreciated and replaced by V3] The Law Inside Trained Weights: The Fold Decode Campaign

[Depreciated and replaced by V3] The application-specific clean rebuild has not yet been published; its authoritative theoretical boundary is now the governing V3 branch: From Distinction to Information: An Exact, Parameter-Free and Machine-Closed Derivation of Information Science from Smithian Fold Theory; After Turing: The Fold Machine - An Exact, Parameter-Free and Machine-Closed Derivation of Classical Computational Science from Smithian Fold Theory. The V3 source platform is https://github.com/MettaMazza/ernos-labs-sft-platform. The original DOI, concept DOI, version number and files are preserved for transparent historical provenance; this record must not be presented or cited as current V3 work. Fold Decode replaces 'black box' as a stopping phrase with registered, falsifiable measurement of trained weight fields. Its instruments preserve tensor values while scrambling placement, execute transform identities as halt conditions and retain every measured output. GPT-2's embedding and MLP expansion classes pass 39/39 registered real-versus-null checks. A widened coordinate and object atlas wakes every registered model family examined. In the committed GPT-2 causal experiment, loud-band deletion produces approximately 150 times greater behavioural damage than matched random-coordinate deletion. Checkpoint and twin experiments locate when spectral structure enters weights and gradients. The campaign keeps measured results, Maria Smith's conclusions and agent-authored auxiliary hypotheses distinct. New models, bases and interventions extend the same registered programme; benchmark victory and wider decode remain explicit objectives.
