This repository is an archive. It holds the working records from the September 2026 verification of the Contextual Dynamics Lab's shared bibliography, ContextLab/CDL-bibliography. It is not maintained, and it is not where the bibliography or its tools live.
Looking for the bibliography (cdl.bib) or the bibcheck tool? Use ContextLab/CDL-bibliography. The copies of cdl.bib, bibcheck/ and the tests in this repository are a frozen snapshot from 2026-09-30 (CDL-bibliography commit 338b520). They are out of date and should not be used or cited from here.
Between September 9 and 30, 2026, every entry in cdl.bib was checked against its published record. That work produced about 1,400 files (around 143 MB) of intermediate records: research notes, batch inputs and outputs, review pages, audits and earlier baselines. CDL-bibliography itself keeps only what the tool needs: the library, the checker, its tests, and the saved verification results with their evidence (verification/baseline.jsonl.gz). These records were moved here so the main repository stays small, while the full audit trail stays public. The decision log and design notes in CDL-bibliography link to files here.
Folders are named by the date they were created.

verification/README.md (from 2026-09-30) maps the old folder names to the current ones.
The crossref research-approve command and the tests that read these folders exist only in this snapshot; CDL-bibliography removed them when the records moved here.
