Governance Records as Supervision: Verifier-Selected Self-Training for Structured Workflow Repair
Machine-verifiable workflows produce governance records linking a task contract, model attempt, verifier decision, accepted output, and target origin. We test whether verifier-admitted outputs can supervise a bounded model by consolidating occasional or expensive capability into reliable one-shot execution. On fresh, structure-disjoint PlanBench replanning cases, Qwen3-14B thinking produced 24 plans admitted by independently authored VAL. They trained the same checkpoint for non-thinking execution, without oracle targets or a stronger teacher. VAL acceptance rose from 1/80 to 57/80. A prospective replication held targets, model revision, recipe, and evaluation corpus fixed across eight Lo...
