Nikolay1andClaude Opus 4.8 10169275e3 feat(P1): explain_ga — provenance/confidence for one GA (27->28 tools)
Three independent reviewers (two external councils + a field integrator) asked for
the same thing: the enriched model mixes ETS facts, DPT structure and name
heuristics, and downstream tools treat it almost as fact. explain_ga makes the
reasoning auditable per GA — evidence per decision with a confidence tier
(authoritative ETS Function > structural DPT > heuristic name), the status-pairing
method, and CONFLICTS (name 'AC' vs DPT 'lighting' -> contested), the silent-
misclassification hotspot. Additive, read-only, no core-model change. Full suite green.
