N'Ko Speech Inscription Bridge v0

The live mic harness must not display unstable CTC output as if it were language. A live or recorded run now has to compile into a governed speech inscription packet: The N'Ko surface is not the source of truth. The typed decision and archived evidence are. - IR primacy: the transcript decision is authoritative; the rendered N'Ko line is a surface. - Controlled register: this is not natural-language N'Ko prose and not translation. - Determinism: same archived audio/logits/argmax/config must reproduce the same decision. - Provenance: each decision points back to captured audio, prepared audio, logits, argmax, file hashes, and manifest sidecar hash. - Non-retroactivity: once saved, calibration packets are not rewritten. Later models may reinterpret them as derived views. The public Learn N'Ko technical docs describe the same chain as evidence, IR, surface, and proof scaffold. The NIP docs frame evidence admissibility, deterministic commitment, limits of translation, and human feedback as constitutional concerns. Speech v0 is an application of those laws to audio. - `live_mic`: microphone capture with optional copied `recording.caf`. - `recorded_fixture`: bundled real-audio fixture proof.
