In AXIOM, the language model functions strictly as a canonicalizer: it rewrites informal problem text into a narrow schema consumed by a deterministic Computer-Algebra-System (CAS) pipeline, which derives and verifies the answer or abstains as a first-class output. Routing follows a 1:1:1 alignment between problem-shape regex, schema-specific prompt, and closed-form CAS handler, with 3,100+ such routes shipped and zero LOST_CORRECT regressions across 250+ consecutive ship commits. We report empirical results on 4 MATH categories with a cumulative correctness of 94.36% (2,592/2,747) at 100.00% trust on parseable (zero confident-wrong answers across the full 2,747-record benchmark), all four domains above the per-domain 70/90/70 floor with per-domain trust at 100.0%, and median latency of 1 ms on rule-only handlers (88% of records on the lm-eval arithmetic 20,000-record benchmark). The architecture has served ~30,000 production queries through a public deployment. The contribution we emphasize is not a final accuracy figure but the forward dynamic the architecture establishes: every logged abstain in production is a candidate correct after one ship cycle, since new tasks compose without regressing the registry. The operational discipline behind this property -- math-template bucketing, LOST_CORRECT scan as regression oracle, parseable-first onboarding, and abstain as first-class output -- constitutes a transferable framework for trustworthy neuro-symbolic systems beyond mathematics.","short_abstract":"We present AXIOM, a trust-first neuro-symbolic execution architecture for natural-language mathematical reasoning.
