Description

DEFINE-UK currently runs the unlicensed upstream model at a pinned commit. Before its results are surfaced as more than a replication:

  • Define acceptance criteria vs the pinned upstream run (tolerances, which outputs).
  • Wire a CI invariants gate mirroring the other model repos (obr-macroeconomic-model, boe-var-model).
  • Resolve or document the upstream licensing position.

Research direction

Start by comparing the DEFINE-UK scaffold with the invariants and CI setup in obr-macroeconomic-model and boe-var-model. Define the accepted outputs and tolerances for the pinned upstream replication, add the corresponding CI gate, and document the upstream licensing position. Done means the criteria, automated checks, and licensing status are explicit.
