# AWS CardDemo No-Cost Modernization Proof
This repository publishes a reproducible proof bundle for a local modernization run against AWS CardDemo. It is intentionally **not** a claim of live COBOL/CICS all-path runtime equivalence.
Plainly: this is not a claim of live COBOL/CICS all-path runtime equivalence.
The practical claim is narrower and receipt-backed: we pushed the free/no-cost verification path as far as we reasonably could. The remaining validation requires a real or licensed-compatible legacy runtime for COBOL/CICS/VSAM/JCL execution.
In short: without paid/licensed legacy runtime access, this is as far as this proof can honestly go.
## Headline Result
- Reviewer posture: `strong_pre_runtime_confidence`
- Ready for pre-runtime review: `True`
- Current static/source-oracle parity: `B=50 / F=0 / gaps=0`
- A-grade live runtime parity: `A=0`
- A-grade promotion gate: `do_not_promote`
- A-grade live matches accepted: `0`
- A-grade live matches missing: `50`
- Paid runtime used: `False`
- Legacy runtime equivalence claimed: `False`

- CICS programs identified: `25`
- Free GnuCOBOL probe candidates: `17`
## The Unpaid Boundary
We cannot honestly push this to live runtime parity without access to a real or licensed-compatible legacy execution environment. That means one of:
- AWS Mainframe Modernization runtime access,
- Micro Focus / Enterprise Server-style runtime access,
- UniKix or equivalent runtime access,
- a real z/OS/CICS/VSAM/JCL endpoint,
- or another compatible environment capable of executing the original legacy paths.
Without that, the correct remaining statement is: the modernization is strongly supported by source-derived static oracles and executable modern replay, but final production-equivalence validation must happen on the legacy runtime owner’s environment.
## Repository Type
This is published as a Hugging Face dataset-style proof artifact, not a trained model and not a hosted runtime.
