The reusable rendering pattern for 2× 6×2×8bit rail registers (or twelve-level slabs), registered with the existing ergonomics: ClassView resolves the reading, rail_geometry computes the placement, every glove reads ONE resolved projection. Neo4j-shaped node-link layout without a solver, a scene model, or a second vocabulary.

The idea, in one line

The address places the node. A rail path (child-index-within-parent per level) is a drawing: ring = depth, arc ∈ [0,1) = the radix fraction of the slot bytes. Pure arithmetic on the row — two loads render identically.

What's registered

contract::rail_geometry (new module, zero-dep like the rest of the contract):

item what
RailAxis Taxonomy / Mereology — which VERB the axis means per class stays the class's business
RailCarving InterleavedPairs (6 levels, stride 2, the key facet's X:Y pairs) | AxisSlab (12 + discontiguous continuation, stride 1)
RailPath hole rule (a value after a zero is not ancestry; the empty path is the lane's dominant root), prefix ancestry
TriePlacement ring = depth, arc = radix fraction
dual_rail_placement the 2-register composition: the PRIMARY axis places, the SECONDARY overlays — two hierarchies on one canvas, only one of them places

ClassView::rail_carving(class, axis) — the same registry-resolver pattern as edge_codec_flavor: default is the canon zero-fallback (facet pairs at 4..16); a bake that measured its way to a different carving overrides per class. The slab variant exists because a consumer bake measured the pair reading and rejected it (44.25 % of paths fit vs 99.62 % in twelve per-axis levels). Selection only — no carving changes NODE_ROW_STRIDE.

Proven, not styled

The neo4j-shaped invariant is a test, not a stylesheet: a child's arc lands inside its parent's half-open interval [arc, arc + 256^-depth), siblings order by slot byte, a stranger never falls into the interval, and the placement is a pure function of the row. The f64 boundary is pinned as a passing test: exact through level 6; order-preserving beyond, with discrimination not guaranteed — a glove needing deeper discrimination reads slots() directly instead of pretending the arc is infinite.

Boundaries kept

kein Solver, kein Scene-Model. Die f64-Grenze ist als GRUENER Test
gepinnt (exakt bis Ebene 6; darueber ordnungserhaltend, Diskriminierung
nicht garantiert — wer tiefer muss, liest slots() direkt).

Grenzen gehalten: kein Renderer (Askama/a2ui-paint sind Gloves ueber

Compute-Crate; ndarray clam_v3 spiegelt die beiden Carvings und ist
dort zuerst gemerged).

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The contract crate now exposes deterministic rail geometry. It adds axis-specific carving resolution, rail-register decoding, trie path geometry, dual-rail placement, and tests for ancestry, isolation, determinism, and floating-point precision.

Changes

Rail geometry contract

Layer / File(s) Summary
Rail contracts and resolver
crates/lance-graph-contract/src/lib.rs, crates/lance-graph-contract/src/rail_geometry.rs, crates/lance-graph-contract/src/class_view.rs
The crate exports rail_geometry. It defines rail axes, carving variants, depth constants, and the ClassView::rail_carving resolver with axis-specific zero fallback.
Carving and path decoding
crates/lance-graph-contract/src/rail_geometry.rs
Rail registers decode into bounded, hole-terminated paths. Paths provide slots, ancestry checks, radix arc coordinates, and ring/arc conversion.
Placement and validation
crates/lance-graph-contract/src/rail_geometry.rs, .claude/board/LATEST_STATE.md
Primary paths produce TriePlacement values, while secondary paths provide overlay hierarchies. Tests cover carving isolation, interval ordering, determinism, dual-rail output, and precision. The board entry records the contract behavior and boundaries.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to dbbc2

The PR adds rail-based node placement, but invalid carving parameters can read the wrong rail data and unchecked offset arithmetic can cause incorrect placement or runtime failure. These inputs should be validated before merge.

Paths mark each node and arc each thing.
Primary roots find where to stay,
Secondary trails overlay.

P2 Badge Preserve the primary path in dual-rail results

When the primary carving is an AxisSlab with deep paths, distinct siblings can have identical f64 arcs—for example, the eight-level paths [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1] and [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,2] produce the same TriePlacement. The module documents RailPath::slots() as the fallback for this precision loss, but this helper discards the primary RailPath and returns only the secondary one, so consumers of the advertised dual-rail API cannot disambiguate those primary nodes without reading the row a second time. Preserve the primary path (or its slots) in the returned result.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Constrain RailCarving inputs before reading the row.

Line 68 accepts axis_byte: 2, which makes level zero read byte 6 instead of either axis byte. Large public reg or cont values can also overflow the additions in Lines 109, 113, and 116 before the bounds check.

Make the lane type-safe and use checked offset arithmetic. Reject invalid resolver output instead of reading an unrelated rail.

Proposed direction
-    InterleavedPairs { reg: usize, axis_byte: u8 },
+    InterleavedPairs { reg: usize, axis: RailAxis },

-            RailCarving::InterleavedPairs { reg, axis_byte } => {
+            RailCarving::InterleavedPairs { reg, axis } => {
                 if i >= RAIL_PAIR_LEVELS {
                     return 0;
                 }
-                reg + 2 * i + axis_byte as usize
+                let lane = match axis {
+                    RailAxis::Taxonomy => 0,

Replace the repeat-call assertion with an overlay contract test.

p1 == p2 and s1 == s2 use the same input and only restate that this straight-line function has no state. Change one secondary-register byte, then assert that the primary TriePlacement stays equal and the returned secondary RailPath changes. Also assert the expected primary depth.

As per coding guidelines, “An assertion implied by the code it tests is not a test.”
