A generative critic forecasts remaining research return at each decision boundary

The value-learning stage: given evidence so far, how much additional progress can be expected? Vπ(oₜ) = Eπ[Gₜ | oₜ]. A generative critic predicts remaining return at each research-decision boundary rather than scoring every execution token, forming the basis for actor–critic training.
