Batch 5b completes the helpers sweep for cycle-1 Step 13.
For each of the four remaining helpers (sha256_sidecar,
engine_filename_schema, ransac_filter,
descriptor_normaliser):
- Append "Cycle-1 operational reality" section to the
existing common-helpers/<NN>_*.md, documenting the
shipped interface, exception types, public constants,
determinism / validation invariants, and AZ-task
lineage.
Specific cycle-1 facts captured per helper:
- sha256_sidecar (AZ-280): single Sha256SidecarError
hierarchy, SIDECAR_SUFFIX public constant, sidecar
format is pure lowercase 64-char hex (no JSON),
verbatim ".sha256" suffix append, streaming digests
in 1 MiB chunks, verify-returns-False semantics for
missing payload vs. raise for missing sidecar,
byte-deterministic aggregate_hash with sorted-by-str
basenames.
- engine_filename_schema (AZ-281):
EngineFilenameSchemaError, ENGINE_SUFFIX and
ALLOWED_PRECISIONS public constants, strict model
validation ([a-z0-9_]+ ≤64 chars no __), dotted
version regex, non-bool sm validation, matches_host
ignores precision by design.
- ransac_filter (AZ-282 / AZ-623): RansacFilterError,
frozen RansacResult dataclass, cv2.setRNGSeed(0)
determinism, median-not-mean residual, NaN for empty
inliers, min_inliers is informational only,
filter_correspondences uses perspectiveTransform vs.
compute_reprojection_residual uses projectPoints, OK
to import se3_utils (both Layer 1).
- descriptor_normaliser (AZ-283 / AZ-338):
DescriptorNormaliserError, ALLOWED_DTYPES =
(float16, float32), float32 norm computation with
dtype-preserving cast-back, new
intra_cluster_normalise method for NetVLAD per-cluster
L2 (AZ-338), descriptor_metric returns
"inner_product" string.
Two contract files (descriptor_normaliser.md and
ransac_filter.md mention follow-up) need follow-up
minor revisions to match shipped surface; queued for
the contracts-folder sweep.
Bumps _docs/_autodev_state.md sub_step to
tests-doc-updates phase 9.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Transitioned the autodev state to phase 21, reflecting the completion of Step 5 and the drafting of Step 6 epics. Revised the architecture documentation to clarify the roles of the Tile Manager and its components, ensuring accurate representation of the system's operational flow. Updated glossary entries for Flight State and Operator to incorporate recent changes and enhance clarity on component interactions and responsibilities.
