We study whether independently trained policies can be represented and composed through auditable discrete behavioral rules. We define auditability as six separately testable predicates: trace integrity, lossless coding, rule coverage, behavioral agreement, composition quality, and value-model reliability. Our protocol uses a shared frozen symbolizer, passive rule extraction, an append-only hash-bound ledger, exact environment replay, and offline confidence-ranked arbitration with an explicit blind-spot fallback. The results place strict limits on this description layer. Rule-set overlap does not imply behavioral agreement: policies may share symbolic rules while choosing near-chance-matching actions on fresh states. The fused policy therefore selects among existing rules rather than generating a new skill. On a conflict-dominated task, an apparent fusion failure is traced to an induction/deployment mismatch: rules induced from sampled actions were evaluated under argmax actions, and deployment-consistent re-induction reverses the arbitration ordering. A fitted-Q generalized-policy-improvement diagnostic also fails in both environments, limiting claims that rule fusion is superior to value-based composition. One exploratory comparison favors rule fusion, but its comparator is post hoc, the task is partly saturated, and the fused policy remains below the strongest held-out actor. We contribute an evidence-bounded audit and composition protocol, not a claim of universal interpretability or autonomous skill generation. Future work must add temporally extended skills, cross-skill interfaces, composition search, and independent novelty audits. Comments: 35 pages, 4 figures, 14 tables.
