The certified US bundle in policyengine 6.1.2 pins policyengine-us==2.2.1 and policyengine-core==3.32.5. The newest policyengine-us on PyPI is 2.15.17, which requires policyengine-core>=3.32.8.
2.2.1 still has SNAP rounding defects that later releases fix. PolicyBench recomputed its 1,984 US household reference outputs (tax year 2026) under both versions:
22 outputs disagree: 13 SNAP, 8 federal_income_tax_before_refundable_credits and 1 state income tax.
Under 2.2.1, 12 of 19 positive annual SNAP amounts are not whole dollars. One NJ household gets 15,309.53 under 2.2.1 and 15,273 under 2.15.17.
Under 2.15.17, all 18 positive SNAP amounts are whole dollars.
PolicyBench records whether its reference model matches the policyengine.py certified bundle. Until policyengine.py certifies a current policyengine-us, every reference it builds on the newest model is flagged as uncertified.
Constraint
The certified data release populace-us-2024-spm-20260915 was built with policyengine-us 2.2.1. Its release manifest's publisher claim covers >=2.0.0,<2.3. Under the certification gate (docs/engineering/skills/data-certification.md), 2.15.17 needs either a new data build or a published compatibility claim for it.
Plan
Build the evidence that the certified H5 means the same thing to 2.15.17 as to 2.2.1:
stored-input audit, covering renamed, removed and now-computed inputs and enum members;
population aggregates under both versions, with every move explained;
