cat_full's *_shelf.jpg views are crops of add/image6.jpg itself - template
matching puts each one back at 0.998-0.999 confidence - so committing them
reintroduced the evaluation photo as a catalog, which is the leak the audit
removed from stock-lopia. cat_pack is the same views without the shelf copies.
Both are regenerated by lfo_setup.py from stock-lopia and the labels, so the
evidence stays reproducible without the repository carrying the leak. Verified
after removal: lfo_setup.py rebuilds all 16 views.
`catalog_hash` hashed the CSV and the view *names*, so replacing
`sku_l09.jpg` with a different product's packshot left the hash unchanged and
a report could claim the same catalog while every l09 decision in it had
moved. It hashes each view's bytes now.
`identity_lanes` carried its own `normalize_text` and `bigrams`, near-copies
of the ones in `rebuild_catalog` that had already drifted (the lane's table
folded ユ to itself, the catalog's did not). The lane imports the catalog's
now, so one read scores the same either way.
`evidence/image6_v2.json` was byte-identical to `eval/labels/image6.json`; the
evidence scripts and the decision document point at the canonical file and the
copy is gone. `score_crop`'s docstring now states the contract its callers
already depend on: the dict's insertion order is the lane's ranking, and
re-sorting by value names a different SKU than the lane chose.
Tests: the lane is shared by the classify pool, so a concurrent-ranking test
pins that one BFMatcher does not cross crops under eight threads.
Replaces the DINO gallery as the recognition path with the measured design
from docs/research/2026-09-28-recognition-architecture/DECISION.md: RootSIFT
over a per-SKU reference pyramid, similarity-constrained RANSAC and a hue
check, fused with an OCR text lane that vetoes a match whose package text
names a different catalog row and answers on its own when geometry finds
nothing.
- identity_lanes.py: LocalLane, TextLane, DecisionPolicy. The text lane
builds each row's signature from the catalog name plus its packshot OCR, so
a row with no enrolled image is still answerable.
- engine.py: every backend groups scores by canonical SKU, so no
view-suffixed id reaches the wire and a name and price always resolve.
decide_crop fuses the lanes; score_crop_lanes feeds the live path. Both
lanes are built in warm_up (non-fatally) so the first frame is not the slow
one, and the text lane shares the engine's OCR lock.
- live.py: decides per crop on the lane's own rank order. The lane's order
comes from its rank key and its value is only the gate, so re-sorting by
value named a different SKU than the lane chose; averaging in an empty
observation also diluted a good confidence below the accept line.
- identity.py: a `local` score scale whose gate is one absolute line, because
the value is already a margin over the runner-up.
- app.py, run-demo-server.sh: `--identity local` is the default; the demo
server no longer starts on the leaked `stock-lopia` catalog.
- eval_live.py: the replay vocabulary accepts `local`, so a recording from
the shipped server can be scored.
- README.md: documents the three backends and what each is for.
Measured on the corrected image6 labels at live resolution: 36/61 in-catalog
facings named at 95% precision, 0 of 48 unknowns accepted, 11 labels sourced
from the text lane alone. Through the real server: /v1/recognize 90%
precision, /v1/stream 100% precision, no view-suffixed ids on either.
