GeoSketch-CoT: Executable Geometry Scratchpads

We turn auxiliary geometry constructions into executable, verifiable, and replayable intermediate states, then use paired experiments to separate visual gains from reasoning-protocol gains.

01

Problem

Multimodal models may miss diagram relations or invent invalid constructions, while apparent gains can be confounded by extra reasoning tokens and output formatting.

02

Approach

We built Graph Schema v2, a constrained drawing DSL, transactional execution, geometric verification, SVG/PNG rendering, and a research workbench with matched-text and counterfactual controls.

03

Outcome

All 149 tests and both production builds pass. The visual scratchpad itself is not yet a reliable improvement; the confirmed gain comes from a two-stage analysis and strict decision protocol.
