Canonical status record

One release. One route map. One validation state.

This page is the single source of truth for what HBF currently is, which release is citable, which routes are canonical, and exactly how much has and has not been validated. Every canonical page and export must agree with this record.

Machine-readable form: /status/status.json. If a page on this site disagrees with that file, the file is correct and the page is a defect.

Product identity

NameHBF Research Preview
What it isAn independent research-software project for transparent, bounded p–¹¹B calculations and external validation.
What it is notNot a reactor. Not an engineering-performance prediction. Not an experimentally validated result. Not an independently reviewed scientific claim.

Canonical release

Version1.0.0
Released21 August 2026
Build tagv700-RESEARCH-PREVIEW-1.0
Source repositoryNot yet published

A public repository with issue history, CI and a tagged release has not been created. A repository URL will not be shown here until one exists.

Git commitNot available

There is no public commit to cite until the repository is published. Commit hashes are never invented.

Version DOINot registered
Concept DOINot registered

DOI registration requires a depositor such as Zenodo. No DOI value is displayed until one resolves.

LicenceNot yet selected

Selection requires a third-party rights review across dependencies and bundled assets.

Validation status

Internal scientific gates 56 passed, 0 failed

Command: python3 tools/scientific_release_check.py. This establishes software behaviour for the declared cases only. It does not establish physical truth, reactor feasibility, experimental validity, institutional approval or legal compliance.

Independent external decisions 0 completed / 3 proposed

No independent external scientific decision has been completed. An in-house or AI-generated cross-implementation check is an internal check, not independent validation.

Experimental validationNone
Peer reviewNone
Accessibility conformance Not certified

Automated scanning is not WCAG conformance certification. No qualified accessibility reviewer has assessed this release.

Accountability

A university partnership cannot be approved with an anonymous brand as the accountable party. The following fields are required and are not yet supplied:

Legal entityNot supplied
Scientific leadNot supplied
Technical leadNot supplied
Data contactNot supplied
Security contactNot supplied
Authorized signatoryNot supplied
Funding and conflictsNot supplied

These are verified facts about real people and a real legal entity. They are deliberately left empty rather than filled with plausible-looking placeholders: publishing an invented accountable party is worse than publishing none, because it looks like an answer. See Team & Governance.

Financial and token activity

This research surface contains no financial, token, wallet, presale, referral or purchase functionality. That separation is enforced mechanically at build time by scripts/harness/check-research-token-boundary.py, which fails the package if any such route, link or integration is present.

Whether financial activity continues elsewhere under a separate domain, brand and legal entity is a business and legal decision reserved to the operator. This package guarantees only that the research surface is clean.

Archived routes — do not cite

The following older generations remain reachable for historical reference but are not the canonical product: /platform/, /research-hub/, /workbench/. Each carries an archived notice. Older lab routes redirect to their canonical successors under /labs/.
