Claude (sandbox) 527f045e17 feat(causal): offcpu column + closed-books eff in the attrib probe
The probe now prints eff+offcpu next to eff — attributed plus the
counted runnable off-CPU gaps over ground-truth in-site time — the
per-window check that the located mechanism accounts for the whole
residual (~1.00 = books closed, no remaining silent loss). Audit line
gains the offcpu column, same delta-terms convention as the lib
renderer. Header doc rewritten from hypothesis to resolution.

//! Attribution-efficiency probe (RFC 007 follow-up).
//!
//! Original hypothesis: the ~4pt impact shortfall on the 24-core
//! validation (+29.3/+83.5 vs theoretical +33/+100) is a constant
//! attribution efficiency eff ≈ 0.91 from site-exit tail truncation.
//! The guard-drop flush closed that leak, yet eff held at ~0.93 —
//! RESOLVED (2026-07-13 sweep): the residual is runnable off-CPU time
//! inside the site (~4.9 slice-expiry yields/entry x ~5.6µs runqueue
//! wait), wall time the ground truth below counts but on-CPU
//! attribution correctly skips. The offcpu audit bucket now counts it;
//! `eff+offcpu` printed per window should sit at ~1.00 — the
//! closed-books check.
//!
//! Measurement: same pipeline as `causal_pipeline`, but the `reserve`
//! actor also measures its raw in-site time directly (rdtsc at guard
//! enter/exit) and counts site entries. For each experiment window at
//! pct%:
//!
//! eff = (Δglobal_delay / (pct/100)) / Δin_site_cycles
//!
//! and the missing time per site entry localizes the leak:
//!
//! tail_us/entry = (Δin_site Δglobal_delay/(pct/100)) / Δentries
//!
//! A constant eff across 25/50% with tail/entry in the tens of µs
//! localizes a per-entry mechanism; `eff+offcpu` ≈ 1.00 confirms the
//! runnable-gap account and rules out any remaining silent loss.
//!
//! Run: cargo run --release --example causal_attrib_probe --features smarm-causal
