Independent review against 01e76d1. Two findings, both blocking, both in
M7's comparator -- the text round 8 had just rewritten.
Test 10b is not the genuinely validated reference M7 nominated. Its
write-side capability is synthetic_for_fixture(0) and only its reopen uses
the real authority, so M7 would have compared one synthetic fixture against
another with the validated half of the claim absent.
This is a collision between two of the contract's own designs, not a typo.
Round 4 made 10b synthetic-on-write deliberately so M5b's two operands
would be provably independent, and that is exactly what disqualifies it
here. One artifact cannot be both independent of the real authority and
committed under it. Round 8 reused a fixture by name without re-reading
what it had been built to be -- a failure no amount of care about wording
would have caught. M7 now builds its own reference in epiphany-testkit,
committing a base under caps derived from the real constant so pin 3a
validates it on the way in.
The field enumeration could not support its conclusion. It claimed
"everything that could carry provenance" while omitting
FixedHeader.file_uuid -- the field it required to match -- plus the
superblock's generation, manifest_offset, manifest_length and
manifest_hash, and the whole manifest outside canonical_base. Replaced with
whole-image() byte comparison, any difference enumerated and classified
either as justified nondeterminism, normalized with its cause stated, or as
a provenance signal, which is a finding since the refusal may then be
stronger than it needs to be.
That finding retires a technique rather than an instance. A hand-written
list of "every field" is a claim about a struct's contents that is wrong
the moment the struct changes, and this one was wrong the day it was
written. Comparing the whole artifact cannot be incomplete. Same lesson as
tables over numbers, applied to the experiment instead of the prose.
Three further sites caught while amending: section 7 item 6 still said
"M7's three text refusals", surviving round 8's correction of that exact
count in two other places; item 4a's M7 row still named the superseded
method; and round 8's own disposition cell stated it as current. All now
point at M7 rather than restating it.
Still NOT RATIFIED, NOT DISPATCHABLE. Findings 9, 6, 6, 5, 4, 3, 3, 2, 2.
Blocking 4, 4, 4, 4, 2, 3, 3, 2, 2. Nine rounds, none clean. Rounds 8 and 9
both found defects in the preceding round's rewrite of the same paragraph,
so M7 has been wrong in three distinct ways across three consecutive
rounds: unrunnable, wrong artifact, wrong method. The comparator is on its
third design and has never been executed.

Independent review against 9829ae3. Two findings, both blocking, and the
first round to reach into a mutation's mechanics rather than its
bookkeeping.
M7 did not describe a runnable observation. It told execution to construct
a base-bearing TextDocument, which bypasses parse_document entirely -- so
the parser refusal it ordered removed was irrelevant, and the demonstration
was not the import laundering it is named for. project_text_document has
the signature &TextDocument -> Result<String, _>: it is the export
direction and is not on the import path at all, so "all three sides, since
removing one leaves the others refusing and the document never reaches the
writer" was false for it. And "byte-indistinguishable from one whose base
was genuinely validated" named no comparison artifact and no comparison
method.
M7 now requires text that is parsed, not a constructed document; removes
and restores only the parser and serializer refusals; names test 10b's
construction as the comparison artifact, built with the same FileUuid and
base bytes; and requires a field-by-field enumeration of the canonical_base
SnapshotRef, the superblock's reduction version, and the header's major and
epoch -- reported rather than concluded. It is informative in both
directions: a field that does differ is a provenance signal nobody knew
existed, and that is a finding rather than something to suppress.
The round-7 deduplication was incomplete. The status block still carried
"rounds 3 and 4 are closed" while declaring the history table the sole
authority for that. Deleted.
Finding 1 is the most substantive of any round so far, because every
earlier one was about text agreeing with other text. This is about whether
the experiment runs at all, and it did not. M7 has been in the contract
since round 1 and survived seven reviews, three of which specifically
re-derived mutations, because reading it never required tracing what calls
what. An observation stated in the right register can look complete for a
long time. "Indistinguishable" was a conclusion, not an observation --
which is the exact failure mode this rung exists to eliminate, sitting
inside its own demonstration.
While amending I caught a third instance unaided: section 7 item 4a's M7
row still said "all three refusals". Fixed by pointing at M7 rather than
restating, per round 7's rule.
Still NOT RATIFIED, NOT DISPATCHABLE. Findings 9, 6, 6, 5, 4, 3, 3, 2.
Blocking 4, 4, 4, 4, 2, 3, 3, 2. Eight rounds, none clean. The M7 rewrite
is now the least-reviewed material in the contract, and its predecessor
survived seven rounds while being unrunnable.

Independent review against c0d896c. Three findings, all blocking, and all
three the same defect -- a claim living in two places and fixed in one.
Section 7 item 4a was unsatisfiable. It required every mutation to name the
test it breaks, while item 1 four paragraphs above states that M4 is
observed to compile -- no test is possible, which is precisely why pin 3's
prohibition is a review rule -- and that M7's expected outcome is success.
A report obeying 4a literally could not be written, and the honest response
would have been to invent a test for one of them. 4a is now a table of what
each of the eight mutations owes, with M4 and M7 carved out.
Round 6's three-literal correction reached section 7 and not section 3.
Section 3 still said "both literals ... tidying either", so the contract
carried the fixed and the broken version of the same claim, reopening the
narrow-scope ambiguity round 6 existed to close. Section 3 no longer states
the count; it points at item 4b.
"Rounds 3, 4 and 5 were independent" went stale the instant round 6 closed,
sitting in prose beside the table whose own column records it. Deleted.
Three rounds, one lesson. Round 5 fixed the review totals and not the
amendment tally beside them. Round 6 fixed item 4b and not section 3's copy
of the same rule. Round 7 found the classification sentence duplicating the
table's column. The defect is duplication, and every previous remedy was
vigilance -- check the other sites too -- which has now failed three rounds
running.
The remedy adopted here is deletion, not diligence. Where a claim had two
homes, one is removed and replaced with a pointer: section 3 no longer
counts the literals, the history block no longer classifies the rounds, and
the status line no longer lists which rounds have closed. A copy that
cannot drift is one that does not exist.
Still NOT RATIFIED, NOT DISPATCHABLE. Findings by round 9, 6, 6, 5, 4, 3, 3
-- flattened rather than still falling. Blocking 4, 4, 4, 4, 2, 3, 3, with
rounds 6 and 7 both 100% blocking and 100% in the previous round's text.
Seven rounds, none clean. The deduplication is the first structural remedy
for this defect and therefore the first with a reason to work, and it is
untested.

Independent review against 03c85dd. The first round where every finding
was blocking and every one was in the previous round's amendments.
The amendment tally went stale inside the block round 5 restructured to
prevent exactly that. Round 5 turned the review totals into a table and
left "amended five times ... rounds 1-4" as prose immediately above it.
There is no longer a separate amendment count: it is the number of rows.
Section 3's test-home correction was itself false. Round 5 wrote "tests 1-9
in epiphany-bundle", but test 7 is assert_reduction_serialization_stable,
which the same section names as testkit/src/roundtrip.rs. Two wrong
versions of that sentence, both written while fixing it. Replaced with a
per-crate table: 1-6/8/9 in bundle, 7 and 10b in testkit, 10a in textproj.
Section 7 item 4b protected one operand where test 10b has two. Replacing
both synthetic_for_fixture(0) and the committed base's
ReductionAlgorithmVersion(0) with the constant keeps the synthetic call
exactly where it is and fully restores the tautology -- and test 10b's Err
arm never executes in the unmutated run, so its literal cannot detect it.
Item 4b now enumerates all three fixture operands individually and requires
each quoted verbatim.
All three are one defect in different clothes: a fix applied to the site
named rather than to every site the claim covers. Sixth count-staleness
defect in six rounds; third range-correction that did not check its own
range.
The mechanism that works is structural, not vigilant. The review totals
stopped going stale when they became a table. The amendment count did not,
because it stayed prose. Item 4b stopped being under-specified when it
became a table.
Demonstrated a seventh time inside this amendment: the new table's Total
row was first written "6 amendments", a free-standing count three
paragraphs after the sentence declaring no such count exists, and already
wrong at seven rows. Caught before commit and replaced with "one amendment
per row". Prose invites a number and a table does not, so the defence has
to be the shape of the artifact rather than the attention of the editor.
Still NOT RATIFIED, NOT DISPATCHABLE. Findings by round 9, 6, 6, 5, 4, 3 --
falling monotonically. Blocking 4, 4, 4, 4, 2, 3 -- not falling. No round
has yet come back clean.

Independent review against df9e528. Four findings, two blocking -- the
first round in which blocking findings fell below four.
The status history still said "amended three times ... fifteen findings so
far, eight of them blocking". Those are the round-2 figures, left standing
through rounds 3 and 4 while the tables recording those very rounds sat
directly below them. Fifth count-staleness defect in five rounds, and it
was in the one block I edited every round. Replaced with a table so a round
appends a row instead of requiring a number to be found and re-derived.
Running tally is now 30 findings, 18 blocking.
Test 10b could not make the two-field assertion M5b requires. Section 3
said only "assert it opens", and under mutation that yields a bare Err or a
panic. A #[test] returning Result that returns Err asserts nothing about
that error's fields, so M5b's required observation of
CanonicalBaseRequiresRebuild { base, current } had no home in the test M5b
names. Both Result arms are now pinned, plus a third arm for the
wrong-error case -- without it an implementation returning a different
error under mutation still fails the test and the report reads as success
while observing nothing.
M5b's claim that the literals cannot be tidied without deleting the
synthetic capability was false. Keeping synthetic_for_fixture while passing
CURRENT_REDUCTION_ALGORITHM_VERSION as both its argument and the base
version preserves the fixture and fully restores the tautology. Retracted.
The protection is section 7 item 4b, the positive check that the literals
are still literals. Round 4 asserted a structural guarantee that did not
hold and thereby undercut the procedural check actually doing the work,
which is the same error as reasoning that a mutation would fail instead of
running it.
Section 3's preamble still said the tests were in epiphany-bundle after
round 4 added two that cannot be -- epiphany-bundle must not depend on
epiphany-ops, and reaching the real authority is the whole purpose of 10a
and 10b. Corrected, with each test's touch-table home named.
Still NOT RATIFIED, NOT DISPATCHABLE. Blocking findings by round are 4, 4,
4, 4, 2 -- the first movement in four rounds and the first weak evidence of
convergence, against the fact that every round since the third has found
blocking defects in text written to fix its predecessor.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Ps1szk2mSfgp4Cz21eVH9x
Independent review against 53292f6. Five findings, four blocking. Round 4
accepted pin 3's capabilities() accessor as bounded -- the first new text
any round has passed -- and rejected both halves of M5 again.
M5b cited the wrong value, and this one is mine. roundtrip.rs:367 sits in
assert_score_serialization_stable, not assert_reduction_serialization_stable,
and it versions an acceleration snapshot, not a canonical base. The latter
has no base at all, because pin 3c suspended it. So the value round 3 told
the implementer not to touch was irrelevant to the authority check, and
mutating it could not have failed anything. Round 3 grepped
ReductionAlgorithmVersion across testkit/src/, saw a roundtrip.rs hit, and
attributed it to the function it was already thinking about without
resolving the enclosing item -- the same shape as section 0.4's .commit(
miscount, which round 1 had already recorded as a lesson. Recording a
defect is not the same as not committing it. The tautology diagnosis
stands; only its evidence was wrong.
M5b left the instrument unchosen. Round 3 said "the rung picks one" and
named two routes, one of which does not exist for the nominated crate:
craft_image_with_base is a private fn inside epiphany-bundle's cfg(test)
module. Now chosen, through public API only: build with
synthetic_for_fixture(0), commit a base carrying the literal 0, take the
bytes, reopen under the real constant. The operands are provably
independent and neither can be tidied into the other.
M5b had no test that could assert the error fields.
assert_reduction_serialization_stable returns () and reopens with .expect,
so a mismatch panics instead of yielding a matchable
CanonicalBaseRequiresRebuild { base, current }. Test 10b added, named and
returning a matchable Result.
M5a violated section 7 item 4a -- the rule round 3 added in the same edit.
It named no test, and its natural assertion compares
CURRENT_REDUCTION_ALGORITHM_VERSION with itself, which holds for every
value. Test 10a added, asserting against a deliberate literal. Round 3
diagnosed M5b's tautology and wrote the identical tautology into M5a in the
same edit, then added a rule and immediately broke it.
Both literals are load-bearing as literals. Section 7 item 4b now requires
confirming neither was rewritten as the constant -- tidying either makes
its mutation vacuous while every test stays green.
Minor: status prose said the pins were open to round 3's findings after
round 3 closed.
Still NOT RATIFIED, NOT DISPATCHABLE. Defect rate 9, 6, 6, 5 -- not
converging, and every blocking finding in rounds 3 and 4 was in text
written to fix the previous round.

Independent review against b842975. Six findings, four blocking. Every
blocking finding was a defect in text rounds 1 and 2 wrote.
Pin 3a still carried the rationale round 2 retracted. Section 0.4 says
there is no in-tree production base writer; pin 3a still said "0.4 shows
production code minting a stale document". The contract asserted a claim
and its negation. Rewritten onto the footing that survives: commit and
commit_versioned are public API and guard out-of-tree callers, not an
in-tree path. This is the third occurrence of fix-one-site-leave-the-
others -- round 1 fixed one spelling of a count, round 2 fixed section 0.4
and left the Rung type paragraph and touch row 2.
M5a had no observation mechanism. Pin 3 required the capability be stored
and nothing exposed it; Bundle has 17 public accessors and none for
capabilities, so no textproj test could inspect it. Bundle::capabilities()
is now pinned. That is new scope and is flagged as such for round 4.
M5b could not fail. If the supplied capability and the base version both
derive from CURRENT_REDUCTION_ALGORITHM_VERSION -- the natural
implementation, since roundtrip.rs:367 hardcodes ReductionAlgorithmVersion(0)
today -- both operands move together and the comparison passes for every
value of the constant. That is section 0.1's own tautology reproduced
inside the mutation built to detect it. The base version must now come from
a source that does not track the authority, and both operands' provenance
must be reported.
M6's replacement named a scenario with no test. Test 6 stops at opening, so
nothing asserted that an unrelated commit succeeds; an implementation
rejecting every post-base commit passed tests 2/5/6/8 and the broadening
had nothing to break. Test 9 added.
Cleanup: touch row 7 listed generators.rs as "call sites, real authority"
though it has zero Bundle::open/create calls, and its rng.range(0, 8)
versions are exactly the arbitrary wire values pin 3b assigns to synthetic
capabilities -- split to row 7a. Section 7's call-site attribution credited
round 1 where rounds 1 and 2 are both load-bearing.
The pattern is legible now and it is not about counts. Round 1 found stale
text, round 2 found unexecutable mutations, round 3 found that three
separate mutations were unrunnable in three different ways: M5a could not
observe, M5b could not fail, M6 had nothing to break. A mutation is only as
good as the test it breaks. Section 7 item 4a now requires, for every
mutation, the named test it breaks and the provenance of each operand.
Still NOT RATIFIED, NOT DISPATCHABLE, pins not frozen. Defect rate across
three rounds is 9, 6, 6 -- not converging. The newest text has had zero
adversarial passes.

Round 1 claimed ratification after a single round. Round 2 then found four
more blocking defects against the supposedly frozen text, two of them
introduced by round 1's own amendments. A ratification a later round
falsifies that quickly was not one, and leaving the claim standing would
make the status field mean nothing.
Status is now NOT RATIFIED, NOT DISPATCHABLE, pins NOT frozen, awaiting an
independent review round 3 against b842975. Freezing follows ratification;
it does not precede it and does not survive a withdrawal. No execution work
may begin -- not implementation, not staging, not partial work against "the
settled pins."
Also disambiguated the two senses of dispatchable that round 1 conflated.
Unblocked means the dependency chain cleared, true since bc06706.
Dispatchable means ratified and frozen and ready to execute, false. Reading
the first as the second is how this came to be ratified after one round.
Both prior rounds were run by the same agent that authored the amendments
under review. Round 3 is the first that will not be.

Round 1 ratified after a single round. Round 2, run against the frozen
contract, found four more blocking defects -- two of which round 1 created.
Ratification was premature and the status now says so.
Blocking:
The call-site correction was applied to section 0.4's table only. The "Rung
type" paragraph still said 57, and touch row 2 still said bundle.rs has 35
opens -- a figure that was never bundle.rs alone (it was bundle.rs plus
fuzz.rs, which has its own row) and is stale besides. bundle.rs has 23. The
reconciliation section 7 requires was impossible against those numbers.
Fixing one spelling of a count and leaving two others is the same defect
round 1 reported as finding 5.
Section 0.4 called project.rs:936 a production bundle writer. cfg(test)
starts at project.rs:630 and every Bundle call in the file is below it --
create at :983 and :1122, open at :1147. The writer-path correction stands
on serialize.rs alone, whose create and commit_versioned are above its own
cfg(test) at :284. Round 1 verified the editor-core claim in that paragraph
and inherited its neighbours.
M5 was unexecutable. serialize_document refuses base-bearing documents at
serialize.rs:151, before Bundle::create, so its output is necessarily
base-free; pin 5 and test 4 require base-free bundles to open at any
authority. Changing the constant cannot make a textproj production test
fail. Split into M5a (production wires the constant) and M5b (the authority
is load-bearing where a base exists, via testkit's restored base coverage).
M6's second half was unexecutable. open rejects a stale base, create
rejects a base-bearing manifest at bundle.rs:234, and commit validates what
it emits, so no caller can hold an open Bundle with a stale inherited base.
Replaced by broadening pin 3a rather than narrowing it, which is reachable.
The unreachability is itself reported: pin 3a's scope is forced, not
chosen, which is stronger than what the mutation was written to obtain.
Non-blocking: pin 3a's justification, that production code mints a
self-consistent stale document without calling open, is false in-tree --
zero production paths stage a base, since the format rung's pin 3b closed
the only one. It now rests on guarding the public commit_versioned API
against out-of-tree callers. And serialize.rs:157 is dead code orphaned by
the :151 guard, recorded as a finding and explicitly not repaired here.
Two of these were introduced by round 1: ruling M7's refusal permanent is
what made M5 unexecutable, and test 8 was added on the write side without
re-deriving M6 against the same reachability. An amendment is a change to
the system, not a patch to a line.
Round 3 is warranted before dispatch. The defect rate has not fallen -- 9,
then 6 -- and dispatchable is a claim requiring evidence of convergence,
not a status reached by running out of findings.

The contract had reached "dispatchable" with zero ratification rounds on
record, against the standing rule that contracts go through adversarial
review before dispatch. The format-epoch rung had four, and its fourth is
what produced pin 3c. This is S27's first.
Blocking:
Inherited obligation 2 -- M8's laundering demonstration -- was in neither
the test section nor the mutation plan, while that section's preamble
claimed all three inherited obligations were "stated as tests so they
cannot be discharged by prose". It was also ambiguous between temporarily
lifting the text refusal and permanently restoring the capability, which
differ by four touch rows and a COMPANION_VERSION bump. Ruled a mutation:
the refusal is permanent, and the demonstration is now M7, with its
expected outcome recorded as success rather than failure.
Section 0.4 claimed "commit has 57 sites (including 2 in
epiphany-editor-core)". That crate depends on core, ops and layout-ir --
not bundle -- and the word Bundle appears in its lib.rs zero times. The two
hits are self.commit(...) resolving to its own method. A textual .commit(
grep counted a same-named method in a crate that cannot reach Bundle. That
is the third instrument failure recorded in that one section, and it was
committed in the same paragraph as the method note warning about the
second.
Three independent stale list-counts: the test section's header said "names
all four" over seven items, gate 1 said "four tests added", and three
report items named five mutations, seven gate results and four tests. All
replaced with "every item in section N". The delta was never a simple
addition anyway -- three tests convert or extend existing format-rung
tests, which nets zero.
testkit/tests/requirement_labels.rs was absent from the touch table while
pin 9 may move CORE_REQUIREMENT_COUNT from 213. Pin 9 must now decide
explicitly whether it mints a label; touch row 12 carries the file
conditionally. This is the escapee CLAUDE.md names, and it escaped the
format-epoch rung too.
Non-blocking: locator drift since 381c498 (bc06706 grew bundle.rs by 338
lines; correction table added, and pin 5's own :396-:399 confirmed
unmoved); pin 2a's corpus evidence superseded by the 2 -> 0 rebuild;
Bundle::open( 57 -> 60, create confirmed still 32; gate 6a widened to
epiphany-testkit, which touch row 7 gives the real authority; and a missing
commit-side positive test, added as test 8 -- obligation 1 warns that
converting one branch leaves a hole, and that branch had none.
Pins are now frozen. Documentation only; no code reads .md.

The status header still read "BLOCKED on the format-epoch rung ... has not
yet landed". That rung landed at bc06706 (fix be244df), and the ledger row
has said UNBLOCKED since. Corrected, recording the prior status rather than
erasing it.
Fixing only the header would have left the contradiction it points at. Pin
10 instructs the ledger writer that P13-S16's row opens only "unless 2a is
ratified and tested within this rung" -- but pin 2a's own prohibition
forbade being amended into a disposition from inside this contract, so the
only route it permitted was resolution from outside, which is what the
format-epoch rung's pin 8 did. The clause's literal condition could never be
satisfied by the one path 2a allowed, and read literally pin 10 would record
S16 as still blocked on a settled disposition.
Amended so ratification is sourced correctly. The "tested" half is
deliberately NOT waived: no other rung exercises this authority, so testing
is discharged by S27's own inherited obligations -- converting both interim
refusals to real capability validation -- and the ledger row may not record
S16 as open until those land with this rung.
Pin 2a's original analysis stays verbatim; its resolution block says so
explicitly. Touch row 11 already carries PASS13_CANDIDATES.md for pin 10, so
the amendment adds no touch row. Documentation only -- no code reads .md.

The handoff was comprehensive as a document and unreachable as a
bootstrap. An agent starting cold on a new machine reads CLAUDE.md
automatically; it would have to be told to open spec/HANDOFF_2026-08-07.md,
and the rules this work actually ran on lived only in conversation and
in an agent memory directory that git does not carry.
So the method is now a tracked file and the handoff is the state it
assumes. CLAUDE.md carries what an agent must not learn by discovering
it: contracts are frozen after ratification and defects are reported
rather than patched in place; the touch table is the staging allowlist,
with the two files that keep escaping it named; mutation-first, and a
compile error is not a test failure; verify subagent claims by re-running,
because agents here have misattributed failures and guarded the wrong
path; never git add -A, never reset/checkout/stash against a tree another
session may share; never cargo fmt --all, since it crosses into spikes/
through path dependencies; xelatex not pdflatex; the green baseline; and
the live no-canonical-base constraint that makes correct refusals look
like bugs until P13-S27 lands.
The handoff gains §0a pointing at it, and saying plainly what an agent
does not inherit — the memory directory and the conversation — so a thin
inheritance is stated rather than papered over.
The editor/T4 track's half of these rules is recorded as observed from
its contracts; that session should review it.

The boundary on the editor/T4 files was lifted for this handoff, so §2
stops being a list of leads and becomes an assessment. Read
PLAN_EDITOR_APP.md, CONTRACT_EDITOR_T4_SPIKE.md revision 6, the spike's
DECISIONS.md, and the spike tree.
Where the spike stands: round 0 complete with iced eliminated, round 1
complete with both surviving candidates passing, round 2 built but not
run — apparatus and candidatekit landed, no round2-evidence directory,
no verdict document. Rounds 3, 3b, 4 and 5 not started.
Two machine-specific facts a hardware change puts at risk, neither
recoverable from the documents alone. The spike's harness refuses to
report PASS unless it finds both a discrete and an integrated Vulkan
adapter, and the integrated one's figures are what decide round 4 — so
a different GPU configuration does not just change the numbers, it
breaks comparability with round 1's completed results. And the
accessibility rounds need two settings that are off by default; without
them AT-SPI enumerates zero applications and the result reads as a
candidate limitation when it is an environment absence.
Checked the one place the threads could collide: the spike path-depends
on layout-ir, core, glyphs, determinism and ops, not on epiphany-bundle,
and no editor crate depends on it either. The no-canonical-base interval
cannot reach T4's measurements. The threads collide only when T1b opens,
since it and P13-S27 both land in bundle.rs — recorded in §4.
§4 now sequences both threads, and the two items that had to happen
while this machine still exists are marked done or assigned.

The first version answered "what is the state of the work" but not
"what actually has to move", which is the question a machine change
asks. Audited it instead of assuming.
Most of the risk turned out to be already retired: spikes/ is tracked
(106 files), the editor-t4 worktree is clean with zero uncommitted and
zero untracked, there are no stashes, and every commit on every local
branch is already on origin. There is no unpushed work on this machine.
What a clone still will not give you, now enumerated: the gitignored
root HANDOFF.md (18KB, not regenerable, deliberately kept out of git),
.claude/settings.local.json, and — outside the repository entirely —
the 21-file agent memory directory both threads have been accumulating
track notes in.
One real exposure found: the branch ref editor-t4-packet2b exists here
and not on origin, which has only refs/heads/main. Its commits are
reachable through the f33673d merge so nothing is lost, but the pointer
is local and should be pushed before this machine is wiped.
§4 is restructured into before-wiping, on-arrival, and then-work, since
two of those steps have to happen while this machine still exists.

spec/HANDOFF_2026-08-07.md: state of the spec / Pass-13 / format-epoch
thread at be244df, the live constraint that no bundle may carry a
canonical base until P13-S27 lands, the S28 -> S27 -> S16 chain with
S27's three inherited obligations, the working agreements that are not
derivable from the code, and the environment notes the other machine
needs (xelatex not pdflatex, the 1.95.0/1.85 toolchain pins, the
cargo fmt --all trap and why its --check form is safe).
Section 2 covers the parallel editor/T4 thread and is explicitly
bounded: those files were out of bounds for this session all along, so
it records only what shared git history shows plus leads to verify, and
says plainly that it is not a substitute for that session's own handoff.
It does name the one place the threads can collide — the canonical-base
interval — which neither side can see from its own side.
Ledger: P13-S27 and P13-S28 both still opened with "open" while their
resolutions sat further down the cell. S27 is UNBLOCKED and
dispatchable; S28 is IMPLEMENTED. The cells are appended to rather than
rewritten, so an opener can lag the truth by several rungs; the handoff
records that as a reading hazard.

document_from_bundle refused a base-bearing bundle, but the public
project_text_document did not. A caller holding a directly constructed
TextDocument could therefore emit a (canonical-base ...) line that
parse_document then rejects — a projector able to produce what the
parser refuses, which is precisely the asymmetry pin 3b exists to close
and which req:textproj:roundtrip's second equation quantifies over.
The guard had been placed on the path the pin happened to name rather
than on every path a caller can reach, and the unguarded one was the
only reachable half: no live Bundle can carry a canonical base during
the S28 -> P13-S27 interval, so the bundle-side refusal cannot fire
today, while the document-side path is one public call away. The new
corpus vector proved the hole existed rather than closing it — it is
built by projecting a base-bearing document.
project_text_document now returns Result and refuses. A crate-private
render_text_document keeps the unchecked formatter for its one
legitimate caller, the canonical_base_present negative vector: a
negative vector still has to contain the spelling it asserts is
refused, and producing those bytes is not the same as permitting them.
Every other vector goes through the checked projector.
projecting_a_base_bearing_text_document_is_refused locks both halves —
that the public projector refuses, and that the private renderer still
emits the section, since the reject vector silently stops carrying its
spelling otherwise. Mutation-verified: removing the refusal fails that
test and nothing else. Restored by hand.
The corpus is byte-identical, so no vector regenerated. Workspace green

FORMAT_MAJOR becomes 1 and FORMAT_MINOR restarts at 0. The decoder
stops being exact-major-only: it classifies three ways through a named
FormatEpoch carried on FixedHeader, so major 0 is decoded deliberately
as legacy rather than refused. Old readers already fail closed on an
unknown major, so that half needed no mechanism — which is why the major
is the right carrier, and why the header's immutability, fatal to
FORMAT_MINOR as a provenance field, is what makes it sound as an epoch
field.
The matrix: a major-0 bundle with no base may open; one carrying a base
is refused; one attempting to add a base is refused and told to repack.
That last row is the non-inheritance rule. Three errors, none of which
degrades to read-only: two permanent legacy/repack errors, and
ReductionAuthorityUnavailable, which is temporary, names P13-S27, and
must not say repack — a major-1 container is already the right epoch.
Until P13-S27 lands, both major-1 base boundaries are closed: opening a
major-1 bundle that already carries a base, and committing one into it.
Neither may be left open while the epoch asserts a validation that never
ran.
Text projection cannot mint a base. serialize_document staged a carried
base into a fresh bundle and build_manifest wrote it, so an old or
hand-authored document could be laundered straight through the boundary.
All three sides now refuse: projection, parsing, and a new dedicated
SerializeError variant — none of which existed to be "retained".
COMPANION_VERSION moves to 0.14.0 and the corpus is rebuilt to 20
vectors and ten rejection classes, with canonical_bases reach dropping
2 -> 0. That is a real capability loss and is recorded as one.
Corruption keeps precedence in both epochs: a corrupt major-1 base fails
as malformed, never as the temporary authority error a user would
reasonably retry.
All 11 mutations were run and observed, not reasoned about. M4 is the
signing one — with the legacy commit refusal removed, a legacy container
gains a base in place, which is exactly the counterexample that killed
FORMAT_MINOR. M11 confirms the third error is distinct while test 3
stays green, proving the mutation stayed inside the major-1 branches. M7
fails on both epoch halves. M8 falls through to
SerializeError::Bundle(ReductionAuthorityUnavailable), confirming the
text layer's own refusal is what the test asserts.
Two touch-table gaps surfaced during execution, both the same shape: a
.tex requirement addition moves hardcoded counts in
requirement_labels.rs, and the companion bump moves a second normative
version literal spelled version~0.13.0 rather than (0 13 0). Neither
file was in any touch table; the second was caught only because a test
exists for exactly that failure.
P13-S27 is unblocked — its pin 2a is resolved from outside, as its own
prohibition required — and inherits three obligations: both interim
refusals converted to validation, M8's deferred laundering
demonstration, and pin 3c's two suspended conformance assertions.
P13-S16 remains blocked on S27.

Reconnaissance before dispatch found that pin 3a's refusals close every
path to a base-bearing container, which the pins never said out loud.
create already rejects a base-bearing manifest, row 3 refuses committing
one into major 0 and row 6i into major 1, and rows 2 and 5i refuse
opening one in either epoch. For the whole S28 -> S27 interval no bundle
anywhere may carry a canonical base.
That reaches criterion 4's bookkeeping-projection counterpart,
roundtrip::assert_reduction_serialization_stable, which commits the
canonical state as the canonical base and reopens it. Both halves are
refused. Its file was not in the touch table, and staging is limited to
that table, so gate 1 could not have passed and the fix could not have
been staged.
The first reading of the finding said the assertion could only be
suspended. That was too strong and was checked before the pin was
written: read_chunk hash-verifies any ChunkRef, so the serialize -> load
-> decode -> reserialize cycle does not depend on the snapshot being the
canonical base. The harness keeps the cycle and loses exactly two
canonical-base-specific assertions — verify_canonical_chunks's base
branch with its hash cross-check, and the reopened manifest carrying the
base. Both are recorded as owed back by P13-S27.
Re-homing the snapshot to acceleration_snapshots is forbidden: that
field appears nowhere in bundle.rs, so the reference would verify
nothing while looking like preserved coverage. Pin 3c names it as the
tempting wrong repair, and names one more trap — the existing
mis-stamped-base test asserts read-only for a base fault on the
data-model-major axis, which must not be harmonized toward pin 4's three
errors, none of which may degrade to read-only.
Adds touch rows 10 and 11 (testkit roundtrip harness, bundle bench) and
gate 8, which classifies every surviving base-declaring site as a
crafted-image fixture, a refusal test, or the text corpus — a live
commit path among them is a failure.

P13-S28 asked for a container property old readers cannot silently
accept and a later commit cannot inherit unchanged. The format major is
that property. FORMAT_MAJOR moves 0 -> 1, FORMAT_MINOR resets to 0, and
the decoder stops being exact-major-only: it classifies three ways
through a named FormatEpoch, deliberately decoding major 0 as legacy.
Old readers already fail closed on an unknown major, so that half needs
no new mechanism — which is why the major is the right carrier and the
header's immutability, fatal to FORMAT_MINOR as a provenance field, is
exactly what makes it sound as an epoch field.
The eight-row matrix carries the rule: a major-0 bundle with no base may
open, one carrying a base is rejected, and one attempting to add a base
is rejected and told to repack. That last row is the non-inheritance
rule. Legacy resolves to hard rejection, never read-only — a
pre-authority base is not a restricted-but-correct view.
Three things the review rounds found, none visible at filing:
It cannot stamp major 1 before S27's writer enforcement exists. Pin 3a
therefore closes both boundaries temporarily — opening a major-1 bundle
already carrying a base, and committing one into it — through a third,
temporary error that names P13-S27 and must not name repack, since a
major-1 container is already the right epoch.
Text projection launders provenance straight through the boundary:
serialize_document stages a carried base into a fresh bundle and
build_manifest writes it. Resolved as symmetric document-level refusal —
projection, parsing, and a new dedicated SerializeError variant. None of
the three existed to be "retained"; an earlier draft claimed otherwise
and was wrong. This forces COMPANION_VERSION to 0.14.0 and rebuilds the
committed corpus to 20 vectors and ten rejection classes, with
canonical_bases reach dropping 2 -> 0. That is a real capability loss
and is stated as one.
Corruption precedence binds in both epochs. A corrupt major-1 base must
still fail as malformed, never as the temporary authority error a user
would reasonably retry on a container that is in fact tampered with.
11 pins, 11 tests, 11 mutations, 15 touch rows, 7 gate items. S27's
contract is a mandatory touch: pin 8 resolves its open pin 2a — legacy
bases are refused by container epoch, never by version arithmetic.

S27 installs a reduction authority but cannot say what to do with a
base that predates it. A raw ReductionAlgorithmVersion is a bare u32
with no provenance, and the text-projection parser accepts an unbounded
one from a document, so no numeric convention — including a high epoch —
is safe from a hand-authored file declaring it.
FORMAT_MINOR fails too. The header never changes after creation and
commit publishes only a superblock, so a legacy bundle that commits a
freshly validated base keeps its old minor forever: rejecting minor-<=1
bases rejects one the authority just accepted, and accepting them leaves
S16's version ambiguous. Separately, a minor change may only append
append-safe discriminants, and current readers ignore minor entirely, so
the boundary would bind only readers that already comply.
What survives is the requirement: provenance must ride a container
property old readers cannot silently accept and a later commit cannot
inherit unchanged. S28 owns that, plus the old-reader rejection
boundary, legacy rebuild/repack behaviour, every writer path including
text projection, and the exact format-version consequences.
S16 and S27 both blocked on it; the chain is recorded in all three rows.

The reduction-version check is a tautology: reduction_version_for seeds
a superblock from the canonical base's self-report, and open compares
the base against that superblock. Both operands descend from the same
source. It catches a corrupt base disagreeing with its superblock, and
necessarily passes for a conformingly propagated stale one.
Rulings: a typed BundleCapabilities required at both constructors and
carried on the Bundle, with no default; outright rejection on mismatch
via CanonicalBaseRequiresRebuild, not read-only and not an anomaly.
Storing the capability keeps all 57 commit sites unchanged; only open
(57) and create (32) move.
Pin 2a stays an open question. Baseline zero does not preserve the
corpus, and after S16 moves the authority to one, a pre-S27 base that
happens to carry one is indistinguishable from a legitimately rebuilt
S16 base. A raw u32 has no provenance. Four candidate dispositions are
recorded, including FORMAT_MINOR as a carrier, which is rejected here
for two independent reasons: the header never changes after creation
(core_spec.tex:10799) so a legacy bundle that commits a validated base
keeps its old minor forever, and a minor change may only append
append-safe discriminants (core_spec.tex:12258), not alter acceptance
semantics — while current readers ignore minor entirely, so the
boundary would bind only readers that already comply.
What survives: provenance must be carried by a container property old
readers cannot silently accept and a later commit cannot inherit
unchanged. That is a format-epoch design, filed next as P13-S28.
Three claims of mine died while scoping this, all recorded in the
contract: a constructor-grep that could not see a propagated value, a
head -14 truncation behind a universal negative, and reading
`format_major != FORMAT_MAJOR` for the half that supported the
proposal. A contract about unobservable defects should carry its own.

Scoping disposition A found two things that move the rung's size in
opposite directions.
Cheaper: the refusal needs no new PreconditionFailureReason and no
schema-minor epoch. reduce.rs:1236's container_not_empty() helper
already covers "a create carrying children" by its own doc, and three
creates already call it for exactly this shape. create_staff_group is
the sole outlier.
More expensive: this is a canonical reduction-semantics change, not
merely a behaviour change. The same operation set now reduces to a
different Score, so core_spec.tex:11614 applies — canonical bases
materialized beforehand cannot be reused without rebuilding. That
requirement is currently unenforceable, so the contract is complete and
ratifiable as a plan but explicitly not dispatchable.
S27 is why. The version machinery is self-referential:
reduction_version_for sources a new superblock's value from the
canonical base's own self-report, and open compares it only against the
superblock that value seeded. The check is not vacuous — it catches a
corrupt base disagreeing with its superblock — but it necessarily
passes for a conformingly propagated stale base, which is the case the
requirement exists to prevent.
An earlier draft of pin 0 claimed no writer path existed at all. That
was false, and the way it was false is recorded in both the contract and
the S27 row: the search behind it looked for constructor calls, which
cannot find a path that propagates an existing value without
constructing one. The instrument could not observe the thing it was used
to rule out.
Docs only. No code, no spec sources, no implementation authorized.

The ratified reasoning is untouched — every changed token is a bare line
number. What the contract argues, pins, and disposes of is unchanged;
only its pointers move, so a reader following them lands on the code the
sentences describe.
Ten, not the two first found: reduce.rs:4119 and :4117 both name
CreateStaff's group precondition, now :4372; invariants.rs:1126/:1135
name invariant 10's two resolution arms, now :1188/:1196; graph.rs:819
and :1614 name the two fields, now :848 and :1650, cited twice each.
core_spec.tex:5578 appears twice and needed two different corrections —
at the prose it quotes the doc line "Visual grouping: which staff group",
now :5585; in the pin-4b table it parallels :4231's struct declaration,
so it wants `pub struct Staff {`, now :5564. A single substitution would
have been wrong in one of the two places.

S8 carried a false mutation claim. It said flipping `is_none_or` to
`is_some_and` at the constant-tempo check killed no test; three tests
kill it — two in graph_reduction, one in convergence reporting the
witness verbatim. Executed and restored by hand. The original was
reached by reading only invariants.rs's own tests, which assert
`fires(...)` and survive the flip; the kill sites live in another crate.
The genuinely unconstructed spelling is the opposite one: `Constant`
with `Some(equal)` has no construction site anywhere.
S8's ratification also stops presenting normalize-on-encode as the
default. Folding one of two accepted byte forms violates
req:binfmt:decode-vectors' injectivity rule, and
req:binfmt:compression-none-parameter is the ratified precedent for
refusing exactly that leniency. A repair must reject one spelling or
keep both as distinct canonical values.
S16 had drifted in every code citation, some by hundreds of lines, and
never named what makes its fix expensive: t8b_both_permitted_stale_forms_hold
pins both stale forms as passing and documents disposition A's rules as
mutations that must break it. The fix is the mutation an existing test
exists to detect.
S25 files disposition B of S22 — corpus rows named for their variant.
Complementary, not a replacement: it reaches other implementations, but
its failure still reads as corpus staleness.
S26 files a doc comment claiming a core_spec repair that never landed.
A P13-S9 instance, and the sharpest: the side that is wrong about the
other is the grep-guarded side. Its evidence must not be repaired alone.

§3 offered "delete the new table's row loop (or the whole new test)" as
interchangeable forms of the paired control. They are not. Deleting the
test drops the suite to 1557, contradicting the 1558/0 result required
in the same sentence; only loop-deletion holds the test count fixed so
the passing count is comparable to the baseline.
Found by the executing agent, which took the loop reading — the only one
satisfying both conditions — and reported the tension rather than
silently picking. Corrected here as a forward commit: 6e4e455 already
sits on the contract, and the evidence chain reads better with the

`operation_kind_tag_vocabulary!` generates `discriminant()`,
`from_discriminant()`, `catalog_name()`, `introduced_minor()` and
`PAYLOAD_FREE` from one list, and `PAYLOAD_FREE` carries variants only.
Every derived test therefore obtains a tag and its byte from the same
invocation and asserts `$disc == $disc`. It cannot disagree with the
macro, because it is the macro.
The kind side never had this problem: `OperationKind::discriminant()` is
a hand-written match, so two independent statements exist and
`operation_kind_wire_discriminants_are_golden` asserts they agree. This
adds the tag side's second statement — `tag_wire_discriminants_are_golden`,
a hand-typed 40-row literal table transcribed by reading the macro
invocation rather than derived from its output.
Coverage is computed, association is not: a 40-long array does not prove
forty distinct tags, so the table's totality over the vocabulary is
asserted separately, and the comment says why that is not circular.
Payload-free tags assert the whole canonical byte vector — which also
proves the length-1 property the retired test had and the kind-side
idiom lacks — while `Registered`, the one tag carrying a payload,
asserts `[0]` alone.
Retires `phase3_tag_discriminants_are_golden`, whose whole subject was
tag→byte for 24–29. Keeps the three assertions at payload.rs:3086,
reduce.rs:12744 and reduce.rs:15941: the table duplicates their tag→byte
subclaim but not the kind-and-tag pairings that contain them, nor G3b's
local mutation evidence.
Signed by the coordinated 32↔33 permutation — swapping the discriminant
literals *and* the declaration lines, so `PAYLOAD_FREE` still emits
ascending discriminants and every derived artifact stays byte-identical.
Before: 1558/0, silent. After: fails naming SetCanvasLayoutDefaults.
No wire, schema, specification or corpus change. Suite 1558/0.

The tag space has one statement of its own discriminants: the
`operation_kind_tag_vocabulary!` macro. `PAYLOAD_FREE` carries variants
only, so every derived test obtains the pair from that same invocation
and asserts `$disc == $disc`. The kind side is safe for a reason the tag
side lacks — `OperationKind::discriminant()` is a hand-written match, so
two independent statements exist and the golden lock asserts they agree.
Disposition A: a hand-written literal table supplies the second witness.
The signing mutation, executed at 17c1d67: swapping tags 32 and 33 in
both the discriminant literals and the declaration lines leaves
`PAYLOAD_FREE` emitting ascending discriminants, so every derived
artifact stays byte-identical. Two operations exchanged wire
discriminants and the workspace suite returned 1558/0 — unchanged from
baseline. The three probes already on record swapped literals only,
which reorders the corpus and gets caught; they proved a lock exists,
not that one is missing.
Retires one test, not six: the table duplicates the tag→byte subclaim of
the three retained assertions but does not subsume the kind-and-tag
pairings that contain them, nor G3b's local mutation evidence.

Filed as a deferral -- pickups unmodelled -- it is closer to a live defect, and
the tree already held the proof. m35 placed a first measure at offset 0 and its
successor half a whole note later under a whole-note signature and asserted
invariant 20 fires. That is a pickup. The test has been labelled "wrong distance"
since packet 2. create_measure applies the same rule as a refusal, now observed
end to end rather than cited: the successor comes back NoOp with
MeasureMeterMismatch. Authoring a pickup does not leave it unmodelled; it makes
the rest of the instance unauthorable.
Both refusals carry the same reason code, so the fixture is the only thing
separating them. Pickup and successor both declare None, which keeps clause 2
from running on either side and makes the observed refusal provably clause 3's.
The pickup's own mint is asserted Applied before the successor's NoOp, because a
fixture whose operations never execute produces a non-Applied result
indistinguishable from a refusal.
The exemption is narrower than every document said. A first measure escapes only
the predecessor-dependent checks -- invariant 20's boundary clause, and
create_measure's clauses 1 and 3 -- plus agreement when it declares None or a
matching signature, and only when its other preconditions hold. It can still be
refused for a dead parent or an unresolving anchor referent, and invariant 10 can
still flag it. Seven surfaces carried the loose form; one had hardened into
falsehood, claiming all three clauses are vacuous for a first measure when
clause 2 has no predecessor dependency at all.
core/DECISIONS.md is deliberately untouched. It already said "never flagged by
the boundary clause" -- the one site that drew the distinction correctly -- and
an earlier contract draft listed it as defective by matching the phrase without
reading its qualifier. The corrected ops entry now quotes that qualifier, and a
positive gate check protects it.
A mid-score partial enters successfully and its successor fails, so the scope is
boundaries following any partial measure, not partial measures. The root cause is
a missing quantity rather than a missing exemption: both rules compare the
start-to-start distance against the governing signature's full measure_duration
when it actually equals the predecessor's own content duration. Introducing that
quantity is a semantic rung; this one stops at its edge, with both function
bodies byte-identical.
P13-S24 is filed for the Chapter 3 splitter deferral, which shares the missing
partial-duration concept and is otherwise independent.

P13-S19 is filed as a deferral. It is closer to a live defect, and the tree
already contains the proof: m35_boundary_flags_wrong_distance places a first
measure at offset 0 and its successor half a whole note later, under a signature
whose measure_duration is a whole, and asserts invariant 20 fires. That is a
pickup, and the test has been labelled "wrong distance" since packet 2.
create_measure applies the same rule as a refusal. So authoring a pickup does
not merely leave it unmodelled -- it makes the rest of the instance unauthorable.
The rung corrects seven surfaces, three of them normative, one of them
outright false: ops/DECISIONS.md says all three CreateMeasure clauses are
vacuous for a first measure, and the agreement clause has no predecessor
dependency at all. It observes the reducer refusal rather than citing it, files
the Chapter 3 splitter deferral as its own candidate, and introduces no
partial-measure notion -- that is a semantic rung and pin 9 stops this one at
its edge.
Three over-readings committed while drafting are recorded inside the contract
rather than smoothed away, because text that is locally true and globally
misleading is the rung's own subject. It claimed a pickup is "neither refused
nor flagged" (the agreement clause runs on a first measure); it claimed that
again more weakly after the first fix (referential preconditions and invariant
10 still apply); and it listed core/DECISIONS.md as an understated surface by
matching "never flagged" without reading the qualifier that makes it correct.
That file is now explicitly out of bounds, with the reason, so a later reader
comparing it against the corrected ops entry does not "fix" the one site that
already draws the distinction.
The absence gate replaces a grep that could not fail. Two of its seven phrases
straddle a newline, so a line-oriented search would have returned nothing before
the correction as well as after; the gate normalizes whitespace, and all seven
anchors were confirmed present at 339269b so it fails today and can pass only
once the work lands.

three are abstentions: agreement-Indeterminate, boundary-Indeterminate, and an

one is inapplicable, one is P13-S19's pickup deferral. The entry had been
counting all of it as gap.
Delegation is proved, not asserted. Deleting invariant 10's per-measure arm
leaves the condition unreported by the entire workspace suite except by the two
tests that name it; the same holds for the instance-local-grid arm. A delegation
nobody discharges would have been an abstention with a better name.
Every abstention cell carries a paired positive control, because silence is the
same observation for all nine paths. Each test asserts zero violations on the
fixture that takes the claimed path, then changes only that path's dependency
and asserts the clause decides with the expected witness. The control has to
observe the clause the cell names: S8's first version restored the governing
search by moving prev, which broke prev<->x comparability and left the boundary
silent for a second reason, signing the cell by inference. Moving the grid edge
instead keeps both measures c4-comparable and the boundary clause itself fires.
S2 has no such option -- a WallClock delta is never computable -- so its control
legitimately observes prev's agreement, and that exception is S2's alone.
Three shapes claimed a clause pair no single measure exhibited: m0 carried a
resolving signature at index 0 and m1 carried None, so the pair was really
A4+B1 on one measure and A1+B4 on the other. A boolean over the whole invariant
cannot see that, which is how it survived the first pass.
No behaviour change. check_measure_meter_consistency's executable body is
byte-identical to f33673d at 4871 bytes, verified by brace-matching from the
signature rather than a sentinel; every red observation came from fixture data or
from invariant 10, never from invariant 20's own logic.
P11-C5 was never this residue's gate -- it is a re-anchoring proximity metric.
P13-S23 is filed for the real dependency: placing anchor pairs on a common
timeline and measuring musical distance wherever c1-c5 do not already yield
both. It owns two disjoint deficiencies, since c3 and c5 order without
supplying any delta.

Filed ahead of execution so the contract is under version control before any
agent touches it. This session already learned the other way round: the G3b
contract sat untracked past a "clean" gate, because git diff --check cannot see
a file that never reached the index, which is why this contract's own section 5
mandates git diff --cached --check instead.
The rung it scopes is diagnostic. Invariant 20 has nine non-success paths, not
the three P13-S18 records; only three are abstentions. Two are delegated to
invariant 10, two are vacuous, one is inapplicable, one is P13-S19. The rung
builds an 18-cell outcome matrix, classifies every path, corrects the ledger and
two drifted citations in the G3b contract, and files P13-S23 for the capability
everything defers to. No behaviour change: the gate requires
check_measure_meter_consistency's executable body to stay byte-identical, and a
finding that suggests changing which graphs violate invariant 20 stops the rung
rather than being implemented in it.
Six review rounds are recorded in the pins as corrections, not smoothed away.
Successive drafts scoped the residue at five paths then nine; called the
Measure-end claim false, then misattributed, before landing on conditionally
false; conflated two distinct WallClock shapes whose clauses fail differently;
and scoped P13-S23 twice too narrowly, the second time excluding B5 -- comparable
pairs that yield no delta -- which is a third of what it is filed to own.
Baseline 1541/0 confirmed at f33673d. The commits since cc49533 are spikes/-only,
a separate workspace, so the root count is unmoved and the section 0 readings
stand.

Adding Registered = 16 made the inventory six fragments -- 24-29, 34, 35-38, 39,
16, and 1 -- but the repair sentence still said "superseding the five scattered
fragments rather than adding a sixth". The count was right when written and went
stale in the same commit that lengthened the list it counts, which is the entry's
own subject matter arriving one row early.

Registered joins the semantic-lock inventory. Its corpus row is emitted under the
variant name at ops/src/vectors.rs:210 and its committed literal leads with 0x10
at spec/vectors/decode_vectors.txt:80, so the drift comparison binds the
association. The uncovered set narrows to 0, 2-15, 17-23, and 30-33.
Verifying that turned up a false clause of my own. The entry said the corpus's
tag coverage is unchosen and unmaintained. It is neither: vectors.rs:201-204
emits one row per tag straight from the vocabulary and states the reason -- a
hand-picked subset is how TransposeInterval shipped encoding to a byte its own
decoder rejected.
But the rows lock byte-to-byte, not variant-to-byte. Each is named
tag_{discriminant} and carries [discriminant], both derived from the value alone,
so tag_32 asserts that 0x20 round-trips and never that SetCanvasLayoutDefaults is
32. All forty rows are identical under a permutation; what moves is their order,
since PAYLOAD_FREE is declaration order. That is why the 32<->33 probe failed,
established from the committed file's ascending tag_NN rows rather than inferred.
Which sharpens the entry rather than weakening it: Registered's row has exactly
the property the numbered rows lack, because it is named for its variant. The gap
is that one row's discipline is not the vocabulary's.

Three citations in P13-S15 had drifted when the golden-lock comment was added:
the table (:2220 -> :2233), the_tag_vocabulary_is_complete (:2569 -> :2652), and
phase3_tag_discriminants_are_golden (:2645 -> :2728). The tag residue moves out
of P13-S15's closing sentence and into an open row of its own -- a residue
recorded only inside a resolved entry is a residue that gets lost.
P13-S22 was drafted claiming a tag permutation is invisible, with 32<->33 as the
demonstration. Running it falsified the claim, so the entry says what was
observed instead. Three permutations, three catches: 32<->33 and 2<->3 by the
frozen decode-vector corpus, 1<->2 by layout-ir's edit-barrier golden blob. Each
restored by hand; suite back to 1541/0 with payload.rs byte-identical to dcb28f0.
So the gap is narrower and different from the draft. Semantic tag-to-byte locks
cover 24-29, 34, 35-38, 39, and -- incidentally, in a blob comment -- 1. Tags 0,
2-23, and 30-33 have none. What defends them is byte-level goldens that embed the
tag by accident and report a permutation as corpus drift or a moved blob, never
as a moved wire discriminant. The coverage is real but unchosen and unmaintained
as coverage, which is the hand-maintained-table failure mode wearing a costume.
The entry carries a probe-design note, because the obvious next probes are now
known to fail and a probe that fails proves the lock exists rather than that it
is missing.
Ledger-only. No code, wire, or specification change. No DECISIONS.md entry: this
is test-coverage bookkeeping, not a semantic ruling.

The OperationKind wire golden lock stopped at discriminant 29 while ten kinds
were appended past it -- TransposeInterval (30, Push 4a) through CreateMeasure
(39, G3b). Every one sat with no byte-level lock, and this is the one guard
written to catch exactly that class of stale hand-maintained table, so its own
staleness was the worst place for it. The table goes to 40 entries and locks
30-39 individually, each row asserting both that discriminant() has not moved
and that the byte leads the canonical encoding.
The mutation is the finding reproduced rather than argued for. Editing
discriminant()'s SetTuningContext arm 34 -> 44 fails the extended lock; with
that same mutation still applied, restricting the loop to &table[..30] -- the
exact pre-repair coverage -- passes. That is P13-S15, executed.
The sibling tag half needs no extension and did not get one.
the_tag_vocabulary_is_complete is derived, not hand-written: it computes the
bound from PAYLOAD_FREE's maximum instead of spelling it, so it already covers
30-39, and the vocabulary macro makes a tag without a discriminant a compile
error. One residue is stated in the ledger rather than papered over: density
plus round-trip does not pin which tag holds which byte, so a permutation
inside the dense range survives both tag tests. The same permutation on the
kind side is now caught. Closing the tag-side permutation gap is a separate
question and is not part of this rung.
No wire, schema-version, or specification change: this adds a guard over
assignments that were already normative. P13-S18 and P13-S19 remain open by
design.

PreconditionFailureReason 14 (AcousticRealizationPinned) and 15
(TranspositionOutOfRange) entered the vocabulary at Push 4a and reached this
document at neither place that owed them. The bounded enumeration ran 13 straight
to G3b's 16, and Push 4a's own history row recorded only OperationKind 30 while
saying nothing about the two reasons it appended in the same epoch. The Operation
Catalog documented both at its 0.8.0 and effect.rs has carried both throughout;
only the wire specification was silent.
This is P13-S20's specification-side twin, and it is why that decoder could stop
at 13 unchallenged: an implementer reading only the wire specification would have
built exactly that decoder and been right. No version bump and no new history
row -- this records an assignment normative since Push 4a rather than making one.
The regression test checks both sites, each bounded to its own longtable row,
because either alone is satisfiable by the wrong thing: the G3b row and the
enumeration both discuss PreconditionFailureReason at length, and an unbounded
search would go green the moment any row mentioned the names. Each half was
observed red alone while the other stayed green. The Push 4a row is located by a
version-free separator marker, per the file's standing rule against encoding a
document version number anywhere in it.
The epoch-12 evidence hash is e64a4b7, not this rung's parent. G3b landed across
six commits, and the chain records introducing commits -- the commit where
kind/tag 39 enters payload.rs and reasons 16-18 enter effect.rs -- exactly the
distinction the 2026-07-28 correction draws between 7df5ca1 and 55eff00 for G2a.
d58eee8 completes the rung and introduces no discriminant; both are named, with
their roles stated, in the plan and in the contract's pin 15.

Kind 39 CreateMeasure and precondition reasons 16-18 reach the Binary Format's
kind table, tag table, payload layout, and reason table; graph invariant 20
reaches the core specification's enumeration, which now says twenty in all three
places it counts. Both normative listings in that document gain CreateMeasure --
earlier drafts of the contract named only the invariant, and prose fails silently.
Every version surface moves in pairs. Binary Format 0.15.0 -> 0.16.0, Operation
Catalog 0.12.0 -> 0.13.0, each with a changelog entry beside the title bump. The
Text Projection companion needed only the changelog: packet 1 bumped its header to
0.13.0 and stopped there, leaving the document claiming a version its own history
did not record. That was live from e64a4b7 until now, and no gate could see it.
Two public hooks exist that would otherwise look like leaks. epiphany-ops depends
on epiphany-core and never the reverse, so invariant 20 implements pin 6/6b's
comparable relation and musical delta a second time over the graph alone. Both
DECISIONS records name the divergence hazard that forces the duplication, name the
cross-crate agreement test as the hooks' only sanctioned use, and say so from each
side.
The monotonicity evidence chain gains only vocabulary-introducing events -- G2b
13c3d2f, G3a 6c5e69f, G3b -- and excludes G-minor and P13-S17 with the reason
stated: neither introduced an additive variant. The 2026-07-29 tie between G2b and
G3a is broken by ancestry, not timestamp.
P13-S18 (invariant 20's abstention residue) and P13-S19 (the pickup deferral) are
filed open by design. P13-S20 is recorded RESOLVED.
The genesis ladder G1 -> G2a -> G-minor -> G2b -> G3a -> G3b is CLOSED.

Kind and tag 39 at schema-minor epoch 12, in both unaligned discriminant
spaces. Measure is schema major 0 -- struct_codec! is a plain walk and
TimeAnchor's Codec has no version branching -- so schema_major() gains no arm
and OperationEnvelopeBlock stays at 3.
CreateMeasure is a nested-container mint following CreateStaffInstance, not
G3a's root-level shape: it carries the owning StaffInstanceId beside the
value, and measure_values carries that parent because Measure has no
back-pointer and the graph-removal arm will need it. Append-only, with
referential preconditions on the parent, the signature, and every non-wall-clock
start referent.
The comparable relation is five exact shapes with an identical boundary
selector; ordering across Start/End is unsound while measure length is
unresolved, so it stays unverifiable. Boundary distance needs a musical delta,
which only same-referent same-selector Musical offsets supply. The effective-grid
oracle reconstructs inheritance from metric_grid_chain and meter_change_chain by
write recency -- not by always overlaying per-key on whole-grid -- folds in
prospective overrides, and runs identically in both reduction modes, so an
instance_grid ledger keeps base-free reduction honest.
Three precondition reasons at 16-18. Repairs a live bug found in review: the
materialized-effect decoder stopped at 13, so reasons 14 and 15 already encoded
without decoding, and the generator drawing below(14) could not see them.

The Revision History chapter ran G2a straight to G-minor to G3a, with no row
for genesis tranche G2b anywhere -- so the accept-set raise
OperationEnvelopeBlock 2 to 3, the first accept-set move since G2a explicitly
recorded staying at 2, reached the normative tables and never the history.
G2b's own contract required that row; 13c3d2f edited 99 lines of
binary_format.tex and added none of it.
The stack is unpublished, so the chronology is restored rather than patched:
G2b lands as its own row between G-minor and G3a, G3a renumbers up, and the
PDF is regenerated.
The new epiphany-testkit guard makes recurrence detectable. Bare name-presence
would not have: with the G2b row deleted, "G2b" still occurs inside the chapter
in G3a's prose, so a substring guard would have been born green. The guard
requires a principal marker -- the rung name preceded by the row's separator --
strictly ordered across the four standalone-row rungs G2a, G-minor, G2b, G3a,
with G2b's content anchored inside its own row segment so G3a's row cannot
satisfy it. G1 is deliberately unguarded: it has no standalone row, being
recorded retroactively inside G2a's. No document version number appears in the
test, in its comments, or in this message.

Undoing a transaction that minted a StaffGroup, PartDefinition,
AnalysisLayer, View, or Instrument tombstoned the object in the ledger and
left its value live in the Score. DECISIONS.md claimed ObjectState::Tombstoned
was unreachable through the public operation API; UndoTransaction over the
minting transaction reaches it with no delete operation required, and did so
for CreateStaff and CreateInstrument before G3a existed.
Adds five graph-removal arms to materialize_graph_tombstones and three
inbound-reference guards to undo_strand_block: StaffGroup blocked by a live
Staff.group, AnalysisLayer by a live ViewDefinition.active_layers, Instrument
by a live Staff.instrument. The guards read the carried-value maps rather than
the graph and are deliberately ungated, so base-free undo cannot strand a
reference the ledger can see; they require the referencer to be Live, and
exempt referencers minted in the same transaction. No restorations lookup:
none of those three fields has a modify operation, so there is no write chain.
Twenty-two mutation-signed rows across six families — removal, live-referencer
refusal, base-free guard behaviour, tombstoned-referencer permission,
same-transaction teardown, and objects-outranks-retained-map on re-create.

CreateStaffGroup (35), CreatePartDefinition (36), CreateAnalysisLayer (37),
CreateView (38) -- all schema major 0, all schema-minor epoch 11, on
CreateStaff's set-union mint pattern with byte-identical re-carry
idempotence. Completes the four remaining root-level Score entity vectors.
No epiphany-bundle change of any kind: schema_major() gained NO arm (all
four fall through the catch-all _ => 0), so the op-block accept-set stays at
3 where G2b left it. The OperationKind golden lock stays at [(OperationKind,
u8); 30] -- kinds 35-38 remain outside it by design, per P13-S15's own rung.
Closes the satisfiability half of the from-empty defect: every G3 object
kind previously became Live only through base ingest, so CreateStaff's group
precondition was unsatisfiable from empty. It does NOT make a consistent
group authorable -- §1.1 disposition B rules Staff.group the sole authority
and StaffGroup.members a non-authoritative projection G3a stores without
maintaining, with both stale forms permitted. That ruling now reaches all
four normative sites: both field doc comments (neither field was documented
before), core_spec.tex, and both the new CreateStaffGroup and the existing
CreateStaff sections of operation_catalog.tex.
Carried-value maps for all four families thread through seven sites each,
including the base seed that fails silently -- a re-carry test reducing only
from empty cannot see a missing seed, which is why t5b reduces onto a
populated base.
Verified independently, not relayed. Full gate re-run: 1429 tests / 0
failed, clippy 0, fmt clean, git diff --check clean. Two mutations the agent
had not observed were run here and observed: reverting COMPANION_VERSION to
0.11.0 kills t11 (the agent had only reasoned this), and skipping the
staff_group_values base seed kills t5b. Both reversed by editing back, with
the baseline green.
Two findings recorded rather than silently absorbed:
- valuegen::analysis_layer's name format was accidentally exactly 16 bytes,
the same width as AnalysisLayerId's encoding, which made a field-swap
mutation on the two-field AnalysisLayer struct byte-invisible. Shortened
and documented -- a fixture that makes a mutation undetectable is the same
failure class as a guard that cannot fail.
- binary_format.tex has NO Revision History row for G2b. G2b's own contract
required one (touch row 27: "version, Revision History row"); it changed
the payload-layout row, tag row, accept-set text and §2373 history but
never bumped the version or added the row. The document went 0.12.0 (G2a)
-> 0.13.0 (G-minor) -> 0.14.0 (G3a) with the accept-set raise unrecorded.
G3a adds its own row without retroactively backfilling G2b's.

1. The ruling had no normative/API surface. §1.1 assigns authority, but Pin 3
still said "nothing else in core" and the touch table listed graph.rs under
"Not touched" -- leaving the contract and P13-S16 as the only carriers of
supposedly normative meaning while core_spec.tex remained ambiguous. A
normative ruling that lives only in a contract is not normative.
Added pin 4b requiring all four sites, and narrowed pin 3 to the codec
surface ("no other CODE change in core"):
- graph.rs:819 Staff.group -- sole authority. Note this field has NO doc
comment today; it must be written, not amended.
- graph.rs:1614 StaffGroup.members -- non-authoritative projection, must
not be read for membership, may be stale in both directions. Also
currently undocumented.
- core_spec.tex at the Staff/StaffGroup declarations -- the same rule
normatively. This is the document that declared both fields without
ranking them, so it is where the ambiguity actually lives.
- operation_catalog.tex -- explicit stale-form semantics in the new
CreateStaffGroup section AND the existing CreateStaff section (:1104).
CreateStaff needs it because it is the operation that creates the
missing form, and its section currently promises nothing.
Each cross-references P13-S16. graph.rs moves into the touch table
(documentation only; no type changes anywhere in core). Added t14 to guard
the two field doc comments, sliced per-field on t12's discipline since a
file-wide grep cannot fail here.
2. t8b's two mutations were assigned to the reducer that runs FIRST in each
order, so neither could reach the state its assertion names:
- Missing form (CreateStaffGroup then CreateStaff): create_staff_group
cannot append a staff that does not exist yet. Mutation moved to
create_staff -- append the newly minted staff to g.members.
- Spurious form (CreateStaff then CreateStaffGroup): create_staff has no
later group to repair. Mutation moved to create_staff_group -- reject or
normalize away the non-empty carried members.

Ruling, ratified 2026-07-29:
- Staff.group is the SOLE authority for membership.
- StaffGroup.members is a non-authoritative denormalized projection.
- G3a stores it but neither maintains nor trusts it.
- BOTH stale forms are permitted, equally: a missing member (s.group ==
Some(g) while g.members omits s) and a spurious member (g.members contains
s while s.group is None or names a different group). The earlier draft
named only the first, which left the spurious form reading as a bug rather
than a permitted state.
Withdraws the earlier draft's argument for B. "B adds no semantics while A
does" was wrong: B assigns authority to a field the specification left
unranked, which IS a semantic change. What B defers is enforcement, not
meaning. The honest advantage is narrower -- B adds semantics without adding
machinery, leaving the mint a mint.
Files P13-S16, which makes the contract's "filed gap" claim true; it was
false when written, since no such entry existed. The entry records both
stale forms, the disposition-A fix, candidate invariant 21, the re-carry
comparison question A must answer, and the standing instruction that
consumers read Staff.group and never StaffGroup.members for membership.
Remaining repairs:
- PLAN_GENESIS_OPS.md still claimed G3a "closes the staff-group half".
Narrowed to satisfiability, matching the contract.
- Boundary accounting normalized to six crossings across both documents: one
exhaustive-match site plus five literal/prose sentinels. The two classes
are counted together but named apart because they fail differently -- the
match site refuses to compile, while every sentinel stays green while
meaning something narrower than it says.
- t4 now runs four independent mutations, one per struct_codec! layout;
these are four separate layouts and one mutation signs one of them.
Collapsing is permitted only if the implementation consolidates them
behind a shared mechanism, and must be stated if it does.
- t8 split: t8 asserts satisfiability only; new t8b pins BOTH asymmetric
authoring orders as states the ruling permits, with a mutation each. A
test pinning one order leaves the other free to change silently.

Five review findings, all confirmed against the tree before repair.
1. StaffGroup/Staff authorship cycle. CreateStaff requires its group live
(reduce.rs:4117); CreateStaffGroup requires its members live. With mints
only, NO authoring order yields a bidirectionally consistent group, and the
inconsistency is unrepairable in-packet -- there is no ModifyStaffGroup and
deletes are deferred. Invariant 10 checks resolution in both directions
independently (invariants.rs:1126, :1135) and agreement in neither; the
spec declares both fields (core_spec.tex:4231, :5578) without saying which
is authoritative. Added as §1.1, UNRESOLVED, with two dispositions and a
recommendation -- the shape G2b's accidental_extensions pin took. t8's
claim is narrowed accordingly: what closes is that CreateStaff's group
precondition becomes satisfiable, not that a consistent group becomes
authorable. The unqualified "defect closes" framing was wrong.
2. Pin 4 promised byte-identical re-carry without the machinery that makes it
work. Comparing "the same value" requires retaining it, and the object map
holds only Live/Tombstoned. Exactly three carried-value maps exist
(reduce.rs:999-1007), each threaded through seven sites; G3a needs four
more, so 28 touch points the first draft omitted entirely. Added pin 4a
with the seven sites enumerated. Site 4, base seeding, is the one that
fails silently: a re-carry test that only reduces from empty cannot see a
missing seed at all. Added t5b (base re-carry) and t13 (each of the four
seeds killed separately), modelled on G1's documented instrument_values
precedent at reduce.rs:13264.
3. The companion bump was stale. The tree is at 0.11.0 (G2b bumped it,
textproj/src/lib.rs:47); the contract repeated G2b's 0.10.0 -> 0.11.0.
Corrected to 0.11.0 -> 0.12.0 at both sites, with the negative vector
rejecting 0.11.0.
4. Mutation table repairs:
- t4's mutation was impossible. A create op's encode_canonical is a single
push_lp_bytes line over one carried value, so there is nothing in the op
to reorder. Moved to the carried type's struct_codec! declaration
(codec.rs:1790), which is where the layout actually lives and is
self-consistent across both halves -- exactly trap 4's shape.
- t6 omitted PartDefinition.staves. Now three independent mutations, one
per referential loop; an uncovered loop is a loop that deletes green.
- t9 moved fixture and production together, which proves only that a bad
score fails a checker. Fixture now constant and already dangling; only
production mutates, one skipped check at a time.
- t12 could not fail: grepping the whole file matches the implementation
body, which contains the identifiers the doc comment is meant to gain.
Now slices the invariant-10 doc block and searches only that.
5. Touch table missed testkit/src/layout_stub.rs:1373, whose 30..=34 range
restates the coverage claim in prose. Added there and to the plan's trap 6,
now five boundary-crossing literals rather than four.
Editor authorization recorded as granted narrowly: barriers.rs for the four

Folds the three open PLAN_GENESIS_OPS.md §6 rulings, ratified 2026-07-29:
1. Deletes: mints only, all five deferred out of G3. The former "live
dependents -> container-not-empty" sentence is superseded outright --
ContainerNotEmpty concerns owned children (effect.rs:156), while the G3
hazard is dangling inbound references from independently-live objects,
which would need a new typed reason and its own epoch.
2. decomposition_attachments: derived, not authored.
3. Measure.time_signature: resolution-plus-agreement. An optional explicit
declaration at the measure start, neither an override of the metric grid
nor a cache of it. Invariant 20 (G3b) covers agreement and boundary
consistency only, not reference resolution.
G3 splits: G3a (four root-level mints, kinds/tags 35-38, epoch 11, all
schema major 0) and G3b (CreateMeasure, kind/tag 39, epoch 12, carrying
invariant 20 and a new precondition reason at discriminant 16).
Correction of record: an earlier scoping claimed invariant 10 "covers
cross-cutting refs, not this". False -- read off the variant's doc comment
rather than the check body. Invariant 10 already resolves a staff's group, a
group's members, a part's staves, a view's active layers, and measure and
grid time-signature references (invariants.rs:1122-1156, :1180-1212), tested
at :3596. Its doc comment names none of them, so G3a owes a prose
reconciliation and no enum entry.
Also corrects five drifted citations that a touch table exists to prevent:
reduce.rs 3850->4075 and 2342->2559, barriers.rs 437->313, barrier.rs
1105->1156, text_projection_grammar.rs 307->315; and "five siblings" ->
"four siblings" now that CreateMeasure is its own packet.
Verified against the tree, not assumed: all four carried types are schema
major 0 (no versioned walk exists; both decode_v0_score and the live walk
read them through plain Codec::dec), TypedObjectId already carries all five
variants, and struct_codec! generates TextValue as well as Codec -- so G3a
moves no wire bound, appends no typed id, and needs no textvalue_graph.rs
work. It does close a live defect: every G3 object kind becomes Live only
through base ingest, so CreateStaff's group precondition is currently
unsatisfiable under from-empty reduction.

t9 attributed its mutation to t2 in both the contract row and the test comment.
The sweep disproved that attribution: t9 stayed green under t2's schema_major
change, because the from-empty spine reaches a note whatever the block stamps.
A mutation borrowed from another test signs nothing unless it is observed to
kill this one.
Signed with the dispatch-arm bypass instead:
OperationKind::SetTuningContext(_) => OperationEffect::Applied
which skips tuning reduction without making the match non-exhaustive - so the
mutation isolates the reduction rather than being absorbed by a compile error.
Observed exactly as predicted: the spine operations stayed applied, the note
stayed reachable, and the test failed on the authored tuning-context
assertion, with the seeded default 440.0 surviving in place of the authored
441.0. Reversed by editing back; baseline green.
Both attribution sites now name that mutation and record why the previous one
was wrong, since a wrong mutation attribution is worse than a missing one: it
reads as signed.

The corpus fixture stamped the manifest at {0,10} because SetTuningContext
needs an operation block at {3,10}. Those are separate domains: the document
line carries the manifest's aggregate SchemaVersion and projection discards the
block's schema by design. With no edit barriers the manifest stays baseline V0,
so the fixture was locking an over-stamped manifest into the corpus while
appearing to prove the operation epoch - the exact inference text_projection.tex
tells readers not to make. The block's stamp is proven where it lives, by the
staged-and-reopened roundtrip test.
t10 still read only bundle.rs. Correcting ids.rs and adding a prose
cross-reference did not make the pair travel together; sharing one guard does.
It now iterates both sources. Two incidental discoveries while extending it:
include_str! pulls in the test's own text, so both the needle and the assertion
message must avoid the phrase they search for - which is why the original split
its needles with concat().
Four stale comments: manifest.rs's barrier-tag range 24-33, payload.rs's "ten
events"/"thirty-four payloads", and the 30..=33 ranges in generators.rs and
layout_stub.rs.
Mutation sweep, each run and observed:
- t1 kind space 34->35, and tag space 34->35, separately. Both kill t1.
- t2/t3 schema_major 3->0: kills t3 and the staged/reopened test ({0,10} vs
{3,10}).
- t6 predecessor restore dropped: kills t6 (442 vs 441).
- t8 kind epoch 10->9 and tag epoch 10->9, separately. Both kill t8; the tag
mutation additionally kills s1's tag table, the kind mutation does not,
which is why both tables needed the entry.
- t10 stale claim reinjected into bundle.rs and into ids.rs, separately. Each
kills the guard, naming the offending file.
t5 and t7 were signed earlier; t4 by the cap-to-2 run.

Closes four coverage gaps found in review. No behavioral change to the reducer,
codec, or wire.
ids.rs carried the same falsehood bundle.rs did - major 3 is snapshot-only, no
operation payload embeds the tuning context, the op-block accept-set is
untouched. t10 grepped only bundle.rs, so it could not see it. Rewritten, with
a pointer to its sibling so the pair stays together.
The text-projection corpus covered no set-tuning-context document: every
accepted document built DeleteRegion envelopes, and G2b only regenerated
headers to 0.11.0. Adds a real one, carried at minor 10. The typed all-kind
round-trip proves the production parses; only a committed vector proves the
emitted text is stable across implementations, which is what that corpus is
for.
Fixing it exposed a latent fragility worth more than the fix: the negative
vectors bound their source documents by positional index into the accept list,
so inserting a document silently repointed every reject builder at the wrong
text. Converted to by-name binding, which is what made the insertion safe.
The generator guard stopped at kind 33 - the very test written because
TransposeInterval and CreateInstrument had gone missing from every corpus while
downstream suites stayed green. It now records and asserts SetTuningContext, so
removing or rerouting the new arm cannot leave it green.
t3 and t4 did not test block behavior. t3 computed max(schema_major()) over
bare OperationKinds without building a block; t4 asserted only the ceiling
constant. Neither would notice a mis-derived stamp or a gate that rejected the
block it now admits. Adds one integration test that stages a real envelope
through stage_operation_block and reopens the bundle, asserting {3, 10} and
read-write. Verified by mutation: reverting the accept-set to 2 fails it.
Also three stale counts, each the hand-maintained-parallel-list shape: the
textproj production count said 31 and had been stale since the original
text-projection commit (now 35), the G-minor epoch table omitted kind 34, and
the corpus count was pinned at 13.
Gate: 1410 tests, clippy 0, fmt clean, conformance 8/8, 14 textproj vectors,
105 decode vectors, git diff --check clean.

Kind and tag 34, schema major 3, minor epoch 10. The last rung before G3, and
the one that closes P13-S13: the tuning context becomes operation-authored, so
it finally has a canonical carrier. The closure argument is the metadata
precedent, not the canonical base - the base embeds no graph values for any
field, and metadata has been durable purely through its operations since M2d.
The payload carries epiphany_core::TuningContextSettings, a five-field subset
of ScoreTuningContext, not the full graph type. ScoreTuningContext's codec
deliberately drops accidental_extensions, so a full-value payload would have
diverged between a live session, where accept stores the envelope as a value,
and the same document reloaded, where the field decodes empty. canonical_value!
could not have caught that: it compares bytes and never the originating value,
so a field that never reached the bytes is structurally invisible to it. The
subset makes the divergence unrepresentable instead of relying on a
normalization step nothing can enforce, and it costs no wire design - the
encoding is byte-identical to the existing five-field walk, which
tuning_context_settings_canonical_bytes_match_score_tuning_context asserts
directly. Reduction leaves accidental_extensions untouched.
SetTuningContext is the sole genesis payload born at major 3, because minimal
stamping is a function of each payload's value, so the accept-set raise is
charged to this one surface: OperationEnvelopeBlock 2 to 3. The doc comment
above it did not merely record the cap, it asserted that no operation payload
embeds the tuning context - a sentence this rung falsifies - so it is rewritten
rather than left beside a corrected constant.
Undo restores the seeded base settings, default or not, and the
never-authored versus authored-to-default distinction stays unobservable. An
earlier draft of the contract had that backwards; PLAN_GENESIS_OPS section 5
trap 5 withdrew it, and SetMetadata is the disproof.
Fixes two undefined references the interrupted run had not yet reached:
operation_catalog.tex referenced sec:evolution:major3, a label defined in
binary_format.tex, which LaTeX cannot resolve across documents. Replaced with
the sectionsc convention already used for every other cross-companion citation
in that file.
Gate: 1409 tests, clippy 0, fmt clean, conformance 8/8 including [7f], both
vector corpora regenerated, all four PDFs at 0 undefined references. The t5 and
t7 mutations were re-run independently and observed to fail as specified; the
remaining eight are not signed off, because the implementing run was stopped
before it reported them.

Documentation only. Ready for dispatch after these four repairs.
Replaces pin 5 and t7. The earlier draft required undo to distinguish "never
authored" from "authored to the default", which PLAN_GENESIS_OPS.md section 5
trap 5 explicitly withdrew - and SetMetadata is the disproof: Score::empty
seeds metadata exactly as it seeds tuning_context, and base ingest runs
metadata_chain.seed precisely so a value-restoring undo of the first
operational write restores the pre-operational state. Undo restores the seeded
base settings, default or not, and the distinction must stay UNOBSERVABLE -
code that can tell the two apart is a defect, not a safeguard. Predecessor::Base
vs ::Write earns its keep only for the bookkeeping families, where a base
predecessor returns a map key to absence; ScoreTuningContext is always-valued
like metadata and has no absent state to return to. t7 now asserts the two
cases are indistinguishable rather than that they differ.
Appends epoch 10 to the authoritative ladder with G2b as the event. It stays
monotonic and prefix-closed, and it is the first exercise of the ladder's own
growth path - G-minor's wildcard-free introduced_minor means kind 34 cannot
compile without one.
Adds the explicit non-goal the plan requires: G2b authorizes no pruning or
compaction of the canonical operation log. The rung sharpens that prohibition
rather than relaxing it, because after G2b pruning would discard authored
genesis state rather than merely re-derivable state.
Adds the touch table the gate already referred to but which did not exist,
derived from G2a's actual thirty-file footprint plus G1's one extra rather than
from recollection: the new core type and its export, full ops plumbing
including envdecode/migrate/v0/valuegen/fuzz/vectors, the bundle accept-set
raise and its falsified rationale, the four budgeted boundary crossings, text
projection with companion 0.11.0, all four .tex sources with all four PDFs, both
vector corpora, and P13-S13's closure.
Ratifications folded in: subset design, epiphany_core::TuningContextSettings,
epoch 10.

Building round 1's oracle exposed two defects in the round as written, both
mine, and both invisible until something tried to satisfy it.
The glyph set was chosen by subpath count. I wrote that 19 of the 37 bundled
outlines have more than one subpath and named gClef, fClef, timeSig8 and
accidentalFlat as the useful ones -- conflating multi-subpath with has-a-hole.
fClef is the counter-example: its three subpaths are a bowl and two SOLID,
disjoint dots, nested in nothing. Measured across all 37 by point-in-path,
exactly twelve carry a bounded hole; fClef, cClef, barlineFinal and every
repeat glyph carry none.
Round 1 now runs five glyphs in two classes testing two different properties.
Hole checks -- gClef, timeSig8, accidentalFlat and noteheadHalf, which is new
and earns its place by being frequently repeated and semantically consequential
(a filled counter renders half notes as quarter notes, a notation error rather
than an artifact). Disjoint-component check -- fClef alone, no background
requirement, instead requiring one ink point inside EACH of its three filled
subpaths, tagged with its subpath index. That second class catches a
tessellator that keeps only the largest contour, which would pass every hole
check ever written. Hard failure is now stated as either: a bounded hole
painted as ink, or a required filled subpath omitted.
The oracle's status model is now specified rather than inferred from an
absence. fClef passing with zero background points is a SATISFIED result under
its own requirement class; recording it only as background_satisfied = false
would make a correct outcome indistinguishable from a failed one.
The second defect was the criterion itself. Ruling A said epaint does not
implement even-odd/nonzero fill for paths with holes -- framing criterion 1
around the fill RULE. Bravura's contours are correctly oppositely wound
(signed ring areas gClef [8.702, -0.691, -1.803, -0.509]; fClef
[2.534, 0.153, 0.148], all positive, the same fact from the other side), so
even-odd and nonzero AGREE on every bundled hole. The rule is not load-bearing;
preserving every filled contour and every bounded counter is. The criterion is
amended to compound-path / inner-subpath fill correctness, with a more accurate
reason for excluding raw egui shapes than the one it replaces: PathShape is a
single point loop documenting "Fill is only supported for convex polygons", so
it cannot express compound-fill or subtractive-hole semantics -- a Shape::Vec
can group loops, but grouping paints them, it does not subtract a counter from
its enclosing contour.
Signed areas are recorded from the oracle's adaptive flattening rather than an
earlier coarse fixed-step measurement, with the note that magnitudes are
flattening-dependent and the SIGNS are the claim.

Documentation only. Not dispatched - two items need ratification.
Resolves the open accidental_extensions pin as SUBSET, not normalization.
SetTuningContextOp carries a new type holding exactly the five wire-bearing
fields, and reduction leaves accidental_extensions untouched rather than
clearing it.
The deciding argument is that this costs no wire design at all:
ScoreTuningContext::enc already encodes exactly those five fields in exactly
that order, so the subset type's canonical encoding is byte-for-byte the
current one. It is a type-level narrowing, and canonical_value! still applies.
Normalization would instead make correctness depend on clearing a field at
every construction site, enforced by nothing the compiler or the codec can see
- canonical_value! compares bytes and never the originating value, so a field
that never reached the bytes is structurally invisible to it. That is the same
hand-maintained-discipline shape that went stale four times at Push 4a and six
times at G2a. Preserving is also semantically right: the operation carries no
information about the field, so clearing it would silently erase a live
registry extension the wire cannot even record.
Nothing in production populates accidental_extensions - every non-empty
reference in the tree is a test - and the text projection drops it too, so the
subset type ratifies the status quo rather than changing it.
Ten pins. The accept-set raise is charged here because minimal stamping is a
function of each payload's value and ScoreTuningContext is the only genesis
payload born at major 3. bundle.rs:56 does not merely document the cap, it
asserts that no operation payload embeds the tuning context - a sentence this
rung falsifies, so it must be rewritten rather than left beside a changed
number.
Awaiting ratification: the subset type's name, and epoch 10 for kind 34, which
is the first exercise of the G-minor ladder's own growth path. G-minor's
wildcard-free introduced_minor means kind 34 cannot compile without one.

Documentation only. No code change.
S15 records that operation_kind_wire_discriminants_are_golden declares
[(OperationKind, u8); 30] at payload.rs:1959, covering 0..=29 - so
TransposeInterval, CreateInstrument, SetCanvasLayoutDefaults and
SetSpellingPrecedence have no byte-level lock. Not a live incorrectness: all
four discriminants are currently correct and the .tex tables carry them
normatively. The gap is the absence of a guard.
Left open deliberately with no code change. The fix is mechanical, but a
golden-lock extension should land with its mutation evidence and nothing else
in the diff - and the mutation is to move one of the four and watch the
extended lock fail where it previously stayed green. The macro-guarded
OperationKindTag half is unaffected; this is the hand-written match, which is
the site Push 4a got wrong. Its sibling phase3_tag_discriminants_are_golden
wants the same check.
Closes S14 at ff9bd0f, and records the two things its filing did not
anticipate. The scope was never just OperationKind - OperationPayload,
ReanchorReason and PreconditionFailureReason all append - and the manifest
reaches OperationKindTag through edit_barriers with no envelope involved, which
supersedes the filing's "no companion bump" note. Op-block stamping did stay
projection-invisible as scoped; the bump came from the manifest attribute.

Implements the schema-minor MUST (binary_format.tex, Schema Versioning) that no
writer had ever honoured: a writer raises the chunk minor when it emits a
discriminant appended after the minor it otherwise declares, so an
unknown-discriminant decode failure is attributable to version skew rather than
corruption.
introduced_minor() lands on the five vocabularies with post-baseline variants -
OperationKind, OperationKindTag, OperationPayload, ReanchorReason, and
PreconditionFailureReason - each exhaustive with no wildcard arm, so a future
variant cannot compile without being assigned an epoch. The tag epochs live
inside operation_kind_tag_vocabulary! rather than beside it, because a sibling
match is the parallel list that macro exists to prevent. The sentinel is
Option<u16>, not 0, since 0 is a real baseline minor for V1-V3 and conflating
them would make the max read correctly only by accident.
An envelope's required minor is the max over every discriminant it actually
emits; a block's is the max over its envelopes; major and minor derive
independently. Baselines are not normalised - V0 keeps minor 1.
The manifest seam keeps epiphany-bundle opaque: no ops or layout-ir dependency,
and the aggregate version is supplied by the producer rather than derived, with
CommitContext carrying the previous one so unchanged barrier content preserves
it. The version rides the superblock slot that already exists; Manifest gains no
field, which would have been schema-major and would have defeated the rung.
bundle.rs's superblock check stays major-only - tightening it to full-version
equality is a conformance regression, and s11 locks that.
textproj carries the manifest SchemaVersion and never derives it, so
COMPANION_VERSION moves 0.9.0 to 0.10.0 with the corpus regenerated. Not because
of op-block stamping, which remains projection-invisible. A new normative
requirement records the carry-never-derive rule in the companion itself; its
rationale names layout-ir, which textproj genuinely lacks, rather than the
operation vocabulary, which it has.
Gate [7f] adds an independent oracle over decodable in-tree barrier fixtures,
requiring exact equality rather than >=. Equality is load-bearing: >= catches
under-stamping but not stale over-stamping after the sole maximum contributor is
removed. Undecodable blobs are reported not-checkable, never as a pass.
Also repairs binary_format.tex's stale claim that OperationKind and
OperationKindTag append at 30 with a history stopping at 29, while 30-33 are
taken and the normative tables already carry them.
Gate: 1399 tests, clippy 0, fmt clean, conformance 8/8 with [7f] at four
fixtures checked and one not-checkable, 102 decode vectors byte-identical
(verified, not assumed), 13 text-projection vectors.

Documentation only. No implementation.
Rules pin 11 as (b) with (a) normative. textproj stays a preserving producer -
it carries the declared manifest version verbatim, never decodes barriers, and
the document author owns updating it when editing opaque barrier bytes.
On top of that, an independent testkit conformance oracle at gate [7f]. When
every barrier blob decodes it recomputes the exact aggregate and requires
equality, not >=: equality is what catches stale over-stamping after a
contributing barrier is removed, which >= cannot see. Both negative fixtures
are required - a tag-31 blob carrying baseline, and removal of the sole maximum
contributor. An undecodable blob is reported not-checkable and never as a pass,
with byte-and-version preservation left to s10/s13 rather than claimed here.
The gate must describe itself as validating known decodable in-tree artifacts,
not as evidence that textproj validates arbitrary edits.
Three new mutations. s16 is deliberately inverted: relaxing equality to >= makes
the over-stamp fixture go green, and that green is the evidence that equality is
load-bearing.
The touch table gains the testkit conformance files and the two tracked PDFs
whose .tex sources change. core_spec.pdf and operation_catalog.pdf stay
build-only for the undefined-references check; if either turns out byte-changed
that is a finding, since this contract changes neither source.

Drafts the implementation contract for the schema-minor rung against the
ratified epoch ladder and the vocabulary audit. Ten design pins covering the
derivation (envelope max over emitted, block max over envelopes, major and
minor derived independently), the five vocabularies that need introduced_minor,
the manifest seam, and the text-projection consequence.
Three pins exist to prevent specific wrong edits. The baseline sentinel must
not be 0, because 0 is a real baseline minor for V1-V3 and conflating them
makes the max read correctly by accident. OperationKindTag's epochs go inside
operation_kind_tag_vocabulary!, not beside it, because a sibling match is the
parallel list the macro exists to prevent. And bundle.rs:301 must stay a
major-only comparison - tightening it to the full version would be a
conformance regression, and it is the most tempting wrong edit in the packet.
One pin requires ratification before implementation: epiphany-textproj cannot
detect changed barrier bytes, having no prior state to diff and no layout-ir
dependency to decode with. Recommended disposition is a documented preserving
producer, with a testkit conformance check as the alternative. The two differ
by a test rather than a design.
Fourteen tests, each with the mutation that must kill it, including the
rejected highest-discriminant policy, the over-stamp after a contributing
barrier is removed, and the bundle.rs:301 tightening.

Corrects G2a's introducing commit to 7df5ca1 - where kinds/tags 32-33 enter
payload.rs. 55eff00 is the later review-fix and introduces no discriminant.
The hashes are the evidence for the ladder's monotonicity, so citing a
follow-up commit would make it unverifiable at exactly the rung a reader is
most likely to re-derive.
Records the ruled seam. epiphany-bundle stays opaque with no ops or layout-ir
dependency; producers supply the aggregate manifest SchemaVersion explicitly
and CommitContext exposes the previous one so unchanged barrier content
preserves it. That is new plumbing rather than a read-through: Manifest has no
schema-version field, it lives in the superblock, and it must not gain one -
a field addition is schema-major regardless of type, which would defeat the
rung. Changed barrier bytes require an aware producer that computes the exact
epoch or refuses, because blindly retaining the previous aggregate
over-stamps once a contributing barrier is removed.
Manifest::SCHEMA becomes a baseline constant rather than the universally
emitted version. Three sites silently select it, not two - bundle.rs:220,
bundle.rs:724, and the re-exported helper manifest_chunk_hash at bundle.rs:1298,
which is public API and so a signature change. The major-only check at
bundle.rs:301 stays as-is and stays correct.
Consequently G-minor does bump the text companion: 0.9.0 to 0.10.0 with corpus
regeneration, because TextDocument must carry the manifest SchemaVersion that
the projection cannot derive from deliberately opaque bytes. Not because of
op-block stamping, which remains projection-invisible - section 2's "no
companion bump" correction is still true about op blocks and now carries a
forward pointer so it does not read as the whole answer.

Records the ratified schema-minor epochs (minors 2-9, one per additive event:
M2c, Push 3, Phase-3 tranche 1, Pass-12 G-pass, schema-major-2 repeat revision,
Push 4a, G1, G2a). These are schema-minor epochs, not companion semver.
The ladder is complete against spec/AUDIT_GMINOR_VOCABULARIES.md - every
post-baseline variant appears exactly once - and monotonic in the topological
order of the commits that introduced each variant, which is what makes a
declared minor prefix-closed. Verified against git rather than assumed,
including the two events sharing 2026-07-07.
Major baselines unchanged: V0 minor 1, V1-V3 minor 0. Baseline variants impose
no additive override; M2c's operation kinds stay baseline while its
PreconditionFailureReason append requires epoch 2.
Manifest::SCHEMA is narrowly superseded. Changed child ChunkRefs still never
raise the manifest minor, but emitted barrier tags do: a manifest naming a tag
in 24-33 takes that tag's epoch. Major stays 0. The derivation seam is left to
the implementation contract, with the case that must not be discovered late
written down - epiphany-bundle depends on neither ops nor layout-ir and
preserves barrier bytes verbatim, so a repack can carry a blob it cannot
decode, and "decode and inspect" does not cover it.
PLAN_GENESIS_OPS.md:257 no longer says "per-kind minor". That policy was
rejected; the paragraph now carries the ratified rule and records why.
Every gate in PLAN_GMINOR_SCHEMA_MINOR.md section 5 is discharged. The
implementation contract may now be drafted.

reachability inventory, superseding section 3's table where they differ. Section

Section 4's tentative epoch ladder is marked incomplete rather than merely
unratified: it was drawn against OperationKind alone, and the audit placed
three families it never considered. OperationPayload 3 (Push 3) and
ReanchorReason 6 (Pass-12 G-pass) have no rung, and PreconditionFailureReason
10-15 spans four tranches of which M2c and the G-pass are unplaced.

per-vocabulary baselines compatible: the epoch answers which revision
introduced a variant, the baseline answers whether it predated that
vocabulary's own lock, and only the second varies. M2c is the proof - baseline
for OperationKind, a genuine append for PreconditionFailureReason. So
introduced_minor is assigned per variant, per vocabulary.
The .tex correction at binary_format.tex:2373 is recorded as owed by the
implementation, not by this plan.

Read-only packet. Walks each of the nine ChunkKind roles' payload encoders
transitively and records every discriminant vocabulary actually emitted,
with every variant classified baseline / post-baseline native / escape.
Two vocabularies outside the OperationKind/Tag/Payload trio have real native
appends: ReanchorReason (SameCanvasNearer = 6, Pass-12 G-pass) and
PreconditionFailureReason (10-15, four separate tranches). Fourteen further
escape-carrying enums checked and clean, recorded as evidence.
Two findings the plan's section 3 table did not name. The canonical base
reaches RepairKind, ReanchorReason, and SpellingNominal, and ReanchorReason
is one of only two vocabularies with an append. And the manifest reaches
OperationKindTag with no operation envelope in it at all, through
ExtensionDeclaration::edit_barriers -> EditBarrier::prohibited_operation_kinds
- the disposition-(c) crossing, realized in a role the plan never mentions.
binary_format.tex:2373 is recorded as stale narrative: it says OperationKind
and OperationKindTag "append at >= 30" and its history names only 24-29,
while 30-33 are taken. The normative tables at :1443 and :1526 are current
and authoritative; the .tex correction is deferred to the G-minor
implementation, which must touch that paragraph regardless.
CompressionAlgorithm is ruled out of scope for schema-minor epochs: it is
ChunkRef transport metadata, not a discriminant emitted by the payload
SchemaVersion governs, and it is deliberately excluded from chunk identity.
Recorded so it is not reopened.
The epoch space stays global, but baseline classification and introduction
events are per variant per vocabulary. The tentative ladder is incomplete -
Push 3, the Pass-12 G-pass, and M2c are unplaced - and must not be ratified
as written.

The gate was unsatisfiable. The tree is already dirty with the editor track's
Cargo.toml and spikes/ subtree -- which the contract itself acknowledged two
sections earlier -- so "exactly one new file" could only have been faked or
argued around. It is now a before/after status delta whose sole permitted
difference is the new audit file, with anything else, a cargo-touched
Cargo.lock included, reported rather than cleaned up.
Scope widened to every reachable discriminant vocabulary, open or append-only
or expanded by ratified revision. binary_format:2386 permits minor-additive
appends to the value unions it describes as closed, so "closed" was the wrong
exclusion boundary; only ChunkKind is genuinely out.
Role completeness now has four dispositions rather than two, because opacity
is a property of a layer and not of bytes. Normatively typed bytes opaque only
to the immediate layer -- operation envelopes, manifest barrier blobs -- must
be crossed into and their producer encoders walked; treating op blocks as
opaque would drop the one vocabulary G-minor exists for. Producer-owned opaque
bytes such as ExtensionData get an explicit "no core derivation possible,
schema carried from the producer", since cannot-see-inside and nothing-inside
are different findings.
The escape checklist is now sixteen named entries and the count is deleted
rather than corrected: BarrierScope and BarrierCondition are separate enums,
and a prose pairing of them is exactly how the miscount happened.
Baseline enumeration is mandatory, in a separate vocabulary ledger classifying
every variant as baseline, post-baseline native, or escape/reserved. The matrix
references it instead of repeating large baseline sets, and a disagreement
between the two parts is a defect in the audit.

The gating work before G-minor can be contracted. Deliverable is one file,
spec/AUDIT_GMINOR_VOCABULARIES.md, holding a reachability matrix keyed
chunk role -> encoded payload type -> discriminant vocabulary ->
post-baseline variants -> introduction event -> derivation site.
Method is pinned to walking the encoder rather than the type, because a field
can exist and never reach the wire -- ScoreTuningContext::accidental_extensions
is the standing proof -- and the matrix's purpose is to say what is emitted.
Inclusions cover nested additive variants at any depth and, the sharpest edge,
later native additions to enums that also carry a Registered escape: the escape
is out of scope while a new native variant on the same enum is not, and
binary_format names fifteen such carriers. ChunkKind is excluded as closed.
The trap most likely to corrupt the matrix: the spec's "append at >= N"
phrasing names the next free slot, not the baseline boundary. OperationPayload
is documented as appending at >= 4 while discriminant 3 is itself an append,
and OperationKind at >= 30 while 24-29 were appends too. Post-baseline
membership must come from revision history, not from those numbers.
Epoch numbers are explicitly not ratified here; column 5 records the
introduction event. Completeness is enforced by requiring a per-role
accounting including roles that produce no rows, and negative results recorded
for every escape-carrying enum -- an unlisted role being indistinguishable
from an overlooked one.

All five findings verified against the tree; the recommended policy is
rejected and replaced with the ratified one.
Policy (b), minor = highest discriminant emitted, cannot represent an
operation block. An envelope also emits the outer OperationPayload
discriminant, and ResolveEquivocation is appended at 3 while carrying no
OperationKind at all -- so the ambiguity is inside one role and one block, not
between roles. Generalizing to "highest from any vocabulary" is worse: an old
kind 23 would numerically mask a new payload 3. binary_format itself enumerates
four independent minor-additive vocabularies. The rung's gating work is
therefore an audit of every append-only discriminant reachable from each
affected payload, which the first draft never scoped.
Ratified instead: a global additive epoch with content-minimal stamping, an
envelope's minor being the max across outer payload, primitive kind, and every
nested additive variant actually emitted. The maintenance objection is
answered by co-locating introduced_minor with each discriminant in an
exhaustive match with no wildcard, so an unassigned variant cannot compile --
the operation_kind_tag_vocabulary! reasoning. Per-major counters are rejected
too: mixed blocks do not compose after max_major.
Two of my conclusions were wrong. Op-block minors do not reach the text
projection -- block schemas are discarded there, and all seven accepted-corpus
schema forms belong to extension chunks or canonical bases -- so no companion
bump. I had also miscounted them as six by grepping lines rather than
occurrences. And the manifest-ID promise is not threatened: it is conditional
on the same manifest body, and a changed ChunkRef is a different body. Real
address churn, not a broken guarantee.
"Is the canonical base exempt" was the wrong binary question. It never emits
the op-kind discriminant, so it holds its minor until MaterializedState's own
bytes emit a later-added variant. Manifest::SCHEMA stays put; existing bundles
need no migration. Construction-site count corrected 62 -> 66.

The scoping question was whether the chunk header's minor reaches a pinned
corpus. It does, and worse: chunk_content_hash pushes SchemaVersion's canonical
bytes -- major AND minor -- into the preimage, so raising a minor changes the
ChunkId and propagates to the manifest that names it. Not a semantic break,
since readers gate on the major only, but a content-address-moving change
landing on the structure req:format:manifest-id makes a two-writer promise
about.
The text projection also projects the minor as a document surface, and the
committed corpus carries six literal (schema 0 1) occurrences, so op-block
minors rising means another companion bump on the G1/G2a precedent.
The policy is the real work and is left for ratification: one minor per tranche
(a retroactive judgement needing a hand-maintained table -- a seventh such site
on a track whose defining lesson is that they go stale), minor as the highest
discriminant emitted (derivable, self-describing, nothing to maintain, but
redefines the term and is per-vocabulary), or a per-major append counter. I
recommend the second and say why the recommendation is not a default.
Four further questions logged, including whether the canonical base is exempt:
its major is role-pinned to 0 and its byte-identity test pins the payload, not
the header, so a base whose minor rises keeps its payload and moves its id.

Four findings, all confirmed against the tree.
The accept-set "deviation" was not real, and I propagated it. bundle.rs:1322
has asserted max_supported_major(OperationEnvelopeBlock) == 2 since before
this packet, so the gate was always satisfiable; the privacy observation about
the symbol not being re-exported is true but irrelevant, because the assertion
never needed to live outside the crate. I checked the premise and not the
conclusion, then reported it as verified. No re-export is needed here or by
G-minor. The test now also asserts what the contract actually asked for -- that
a staged block carrying either kind stamps major 0, exercising the writer-side
derivation rather than the bare kind.
s3 asserted effects only, though the contract required chain growth too. A
mutant returning Applied while skipping WriteChain::record for an unchanged
value passed it, and the damage would surface only later as an undo restoring
the base instead of reporting supersession. The two identical writes now sit in
different transactions and a strict undo of the first must report the second as
superseding; mutation (b) kills exactly that half while the effects half stays
green.
s9 claimed no mutation was needed because the test is itself a reject-path
exercise. That reasoning was wrong: being a reject-path test does not show the
rejection is caused by the mislabeling rather than something incidental. The
mutation -- a parse arm that silently accepts a mismatched shape -- was both
performable and killing.
core_spec grouped SetCanvasLayoutDefaults and CreateInstrument as leaves with a
single layout. True only of the first. Instrument has distinct major-0/1/2
layouts and stamps major 2 unconditionally because its major-2 appends are
mandatory, so it is not major 1 for the opposite reason. Split.
All ten contract mutations now have observed kill evidence: s1, s2, s4, s8 and
s10's row-28 half were run here alongside the four recorded earlier. s8 killed
only the two pinned literal-byte vectors while 217 round-trip tests stayed
green -- the 3b-i property, demonstrated rather than asserted.
Gate: fmt clean, clippy 0, 1371 passed / 0 failed, conformance 8/8 and 9/9,
labels 6/6, core_spec PDF 0 undefined refs, goldens byte-identical,
epiphany-bundle diff empty.

Ruling A grants the architecture -- direct vector canvas over ResolvedLayoutIR,
viewport-culled, per-system damage -- and deliberately leaves the toolkit open
for this spike to decide under six recorded criteria. All three prerequisites
are discharged (W1 dd33b34, W2 24f8c80, W3 f639919), so the tranche opens.
The contract's problem is not what to build but how to keep the answer honest.
Six criteria across three candidate stacks is unbounded work with a dozen
places for the verdict to be decided by whoever writes the report. So the
structure is an elimination ladder, cheapest disqualifier first, with every
deciding number pinned before it is measured: the fixture ladder F1-F4 and its
musical-content recipe, the deciding rung, the equivalence band, the tie-break
and its three operationally defined axes, and the oracles -- committed, with
their commit recorded, before any candidate renders against them.
Five review rounds shaped it, and most of what they caught was mine.
Measurement. Timed work must be completed GPU work, not submission, or a
candidate that returns after enqueueing looks fast. One common configuration
across all candidates: offscreen, 1920x1080, identical MSAA and format,
--release --locked, both adapters with the integrated one deciding. Freehand
latency runs from scheduled event injection to completion of the first frame
containing that event, backlog included; timing from renderer pickup would let
a candidate buffer the trace, render late, drop nothing, and report fast update
work while lagging visibly.
Damage. The first draft compared raw PrimitiveIndices, which are positions in
flat arrays -- so a pitch change that preserves primitive count moves geometry
while every vector stays identical, and an inserted accidental renumbers
indices so untouched systems look changed. It is now fingerprints over
dereferenced primitives, unowned included. And byte equality alone lets a full
redraw masquerade as per-system damage, so the oracle is paired with a reuse
assertion over the scene cache, at every engraving-valid rung, before the
ranking round rather than inside it.
Outcomes. A check that ran and got the wrong answer is FAIL, not NOT RUN;
conflating them let a broken implementation buy an escalation instead of
recording negative evidence. Capability and timing are separate cells.
Eligibility is a disqualifying set tracked apart from criterion cells, so a
user waiver actually reaches the tie-break instead of leaving a decision with
no effect. Both no-winner paths are total: disqualification, and ranking-loss
wipeout when nobody renders the deciding rung.
Maintenance inputs are reproducible rather than selectable: upstreams pinned
per candidate before any figure is fetched, composites taking the worse value
per axis, maintainer identity machine-observable, the issue snapshot archived,
and unanswered issues contributing infinity rather than their current age --
which would otherwise score twenty ignored issues opened yesterday as
excellent responsiveness.
What the spike is not: the app. No command registry, no editing, no document
layer, no goldens. Ruling D creates epiphany-editor-app fresh after this
verdict. And it does not reopen Ruling A -- a finding that no candidate can
implement the granted architecture escalates as an amendment request and does
not silently promote the SVG path back.
Docs only; no code, no crate, no gate movement.

SetCanvasLayoutDefaults and SetSpellingPrecedence, kinds and tags 32/33, on the
SetMetadata LWW pattern: advisory last-writer-wins, no conflict, no idempotence
short-circuit, seeded from the base so a value-restoring undo of the first
operational write reaches the pre-operational value. Both carried types already
had Codec impls, so the packet designs no wire layout -- canonical_value!
delegation and one push_lp_bytes each, inheriting strict canonical-form
rejection rather than writing it.
Both stamp schema major 0 unconditionally, staying in the catch-all arm. The
op-block accept-set is untouched at 2; epiphany-bundle has an empty diff. The
raise to 3 belongs to G2b, and the chunk schema minor -- a MUST no writer has
ever honoured -- belongs to G-minor, filed as P13-S14 and deliberately not
fixed here.
Most of this commit is documentation the vocabulary had outgrown. G1 shipped
five normative falsehoods because its contract declared the wire surfaces out
of scope, and Push 4a left TransposeInterval out of both of core_spec's
normative listings. So binary_format's payload-layout and tag tables now reach
33 rather than 30, its snapshot-only bullet records that it is empty and why,
two spelled-out payload counts move from eight to nine, and core_spec's
listings gain all four missing kinds. The Pass-12 K8 doctrine is narrowed
rather than reversed: the root and canvas remain structural givens no operation
mints, and only the claim that the score's contents arrive outside the
operation set is superseded.
Two generators were stale by two tranches and fed corpora other suites treat as
exhaustive. layout_stub's is now derived from PAYLOAD_FREE with an explicit
Registered append instead of a hand-written match, so future built-ins follow
structurally; s10 asserts PAYLOAD_FREE union {Registered} so deleting that
append cannot pass.
Companion 0.8.0 -> 0.9.0, binary format 0.11.0 -> 0.12.0, catalog 0.9.0 ->
0.10.0 (covering G1 retroactively). 102 decode vectors, regenerated.
Coordinator verification: 1371 passed / 0 failed, clippy 0 warnings, fmt clean,
conformance 8/8 and 9/9, requirement_labels 6/6, four PDFs at 0 undefined
references, goldens byte-identical, accept-set confirmed still 2. Mutations
s3/s5/s7/s10 re-run independently and each observed to kill its test.
Two findings beyond the contract. max_supported_major is not reachable outside
epiphany-bundle -- mod bundle is private and the symbol is absent from its
pub use -- so the gate's "assert it in code" was unsatisfiable without touching
a crate the contract forbids; verified by reading the unedited source instead.
And core_spec carries two P12-K8 references, not one; the contract named only
the first, so the second is annotated here for consistency.

Review found the mitigation attached to the last landing reading the wrong
code path. EditorSession::open does start with an empty applied log, but that
is the score-only probe constructor. The savable-document path is Ruling B's:
reopen is full replay, stored envelopes load as a committed partition, and
materialization reduces committed plus session operations together. Nothing
resets the depth this bench varies until the checkpoint and pruning machinery
assigned to T4b can write a new canonical_base.
So consequence (e) is withdrawn rather than corrected in place. The ~4,500-edit
wall is a budget on a document's whole accumulated history, and there is no
session reset to lean on -- neither as reassurance about the number nor as
support for the sequencing argument, which rests on paint dominance and does
not need it. T4b's trigger is correspondingly firmer than it read yesterday.
Also: two comments still described the gated core portion as reduce plus
engrave, from before envelope construction was added as a third stage. The
sum they document has included it since the last landing.
Verified in an isolated worktree at HEAD rather than in the working tree,
which still carries the genesis tranche's in-flight work: fmt clean, clippy 0
with and without golden-gate, gate OK with every verdict unchanged (the edits
are documentation only).

Review found the first version generating every envelope with an empty causal
context. Production gives only the root that shape: each later edit carries
active_prior_context(), the head's context extended by the head, so it covers
the whole active prefix. Reduction orders on those edges, so a context-free log
exercises a different algorithm -- and a cheaper one. Counters were wrong the
same way: EditorSession mints at authored.len(), so the root is counter zero,
which is also what extend_context recognises as the start of a contiguous run.
Remeasured on a session-shaped log, reduce is roughly three times its former
self at depth ten thousand -- 54 ms, not 17 -- and the wall moves from about ten
thousand edits to between three and five thousand. That is the number T4b is
sequenced against, so the first table would have mis-sequenced it. Depths three
and five thousand now bracket the crossing; sampling only decades hid it.
Two findings survive the correction and one is weakened. Reduce is still the
only depth-scaling stage, and is superlinear at about n^1.4 -- which does not
contradict the reduction bench's subquadratic result at fifty thousand
envelopes, because that log is generated across three replicas with a different
causal shape, and two logs of equal length are not equal work. Engrave is still
flat, at 260 to 327 microseconds, and is still the larger half of the core's
portion at shallow depth, so criterion 2's "uninformative while reduction
dominates" holds only past roughly depth five hundred. But "render dominates at
realistic depths" is now bounded: paint leads by four and a half times at depth
one hundred, is level by one thousand, and is left behind after. T4 before T4b
still stands -- the canvas removes what dominates a session's first thousand-odd
edits -- but the two are no longer comfortably separated.
The gate now includes envelope construction, which the requirement names first
and the first version silently dropped. It is forty nanoseconds and never moves
a verdict; a gate that omits a named component is a proxy for the requirement
rather than the requirement.
The 98% claim is replaced by both figures with their denominators named: what a
direct-IR canvas avoids is 83% of the full measured per-edit pipeline, and 99.8%
of the render path alone. The unqualified number was supported by neither.
One row changed marking for a reason worth recording. Depth four thousand passes
clean at 12.99 ms, but that is 78% of budget, and a load-contaminated run
measured it at 22.77 ms -- above the five thousand row, which is impossible
clean. A Pass row that fails whenever the machine is busy teaches people to
ignore the gate, so the last gated Pass is three thousand and four thousand's
clean number is kept as data in the table instead.
Also recorded: depth is per session, not per document. EditorSession::open
starts with an empty applied log, so reopening resets it and the reduced score
becomes the new pristine base. That is what keeps a four-figure wall from being
catastrophic -- though note entry mints one operation per note, so it is
reachable in a sitting.
Verified in an isolated worktree at HEAD rather than in the working tree, which
currently carries the genesis tranche's in-flight G2 work: fmt clean, clippy 0
with and without golden-gate, workspace tests green, gate OK across all five
rows.

The literal-site count said four and named three plus two generator bounds. The
omitted one is OperationKind::discriminant() -- the hand-written match that
Push 4a got wrong in the first place, and the one the contract elsewhere notes
the tag macro does not guard. All six are now enumerated, with the count after
row 29's derivation stated as five so the next tranche inherits an accurate
number rather than this one's.
s10's layout-stub half asserted kinds 30-33, which would have survived deleting
the required Registered append -- PAYLOAD_FREE excludes it by design and the
generator's doc promises every variant, so the gap between them is exactly
where the bug would live. It now asserts PAYLOAD_FREE union {Registered}, with
removal of Registered as the mutation. Future built-ins follow structurally
with no test change; the one payload-bearing variant that cannot stays locked.

All three confirmed. Two of them contain SetMetadata and appeared in the very
grep the touch table claimed to be derived from, so the derivation claim is
struck rather than repaired: the evidence was on screen and went unused, which
is worse than not having looked.
generators.rs:647 and layout_stub.rs:951 are both already stale by two
tranches -- neither emits TransposeInterval or CreateInstrument -- and both
feed corpora other suites treat as exhaustive, so a missing kind is untested
everywhere downstream while every suite stays green. layout_stub's doc comment
claims every variant while its bound omits two. Its fix is structural rather
than additive: derive the built-ins from PAYLOAD_FREE and append Registered,
which payload.rs:1991 already does. New test s10 asserts both generators emit
all four appended kinds.
textproj_kind.rs:597 is a fourth hand-maintained literal count.
The pattern is worth naming: operation_kind_tag_vocabulary! exists because
Push 4a added TransposeInterval to a hand-written match and nothing else, and
its own doc says four hand-maintained lists stayed green. The macro made the
compile-enforced half safe, and these three lists went stale at that same
append anyway, because nothing forces an rng bound or a literal count to move.
Hence: prefer deriving over extending wherever a list can be derived, and
report the sites that cannot be.

TransposeInterval is missing from both Core normative listings, which carry the
older Transpose and never gained its successor at kind 30. So the vocabulary
has drifted from its normative listings for two tranches, not one, and both
listings need four additions rather than two. The contract's grep list gains
TransposeInterval, and names the signature worth hunting: a spelled-out count
that disagrees with the enumeration beside it.
for_major does not return {major, 0} unconditionally -- V0 is {0, 1}, and only
V1 through V3 carry minor 0. Corrected in the contract, the plan, and P13-S14.
The finding is unchanged: the function accepts only a major, so no per-kind
additive minor can reach it.
Ladder order is now explicit as G2a -> G-minor -> G2b, with the reason. The
sweep is scoped to kinds 24-33, which is what exists once G2a lands; running
G2b first appends kind 34 and would either grow the sweep mid-flight or ship 34
carrying the defect the rung exists to retire.
Core is five live-text edits plus one historical annotation, not five edits.

The staged interactive-edit latency bench: reduce / engrave / scene-build /
paint measured separately, gating the core's portion against
req:perf:single-system-edit-latency's 16.7 ms frame. Criterion 2 asserts that a
toolkit verdict is uninformative while reduction dominates, and that sentence
had never been measured; the sequencing question it governs -- T4's spike now,
or T4b's incrementality first -- was resting on it.
The stage split is not invented here. It is the seam EditorSession::materialize
already walks, read off its private render_score and reproduced stage for
stage, so the bench measures the pipeline rather than a model of it. Only reduce
and engrave are gated: the requirement bounds "the core's portion" and says in
its own words that edit-to-pixel latency is a product-layer obligation, so
charging the SVG serializer and resvg against a core budget would be a category
error. They are measured and printed because the ruling asks for the stages
separately, and because today's is the path Ruling A demotes -- the number is
the baseline a canvas must beat, not a budget to defend.
Four findings, in the order they matter. Reduce is the only stage that scales
with log depth, near-linearly, and it breaks the frame at roughly ten thousand
edits -- 17.26 ms against 16.7, a three percent miss, so an order of magnitude
rather than a threshold. Engrave is flat and small at ~280 microseconds, and at
shallow depth it is the larger half of the core's portion, which qualifies
criterion 2 rather than confirming it: reduction does not dominate until about
depth five hundred. Paint is the largest single cost at every realistic depth --
2.12 ms at depth one hundred is four and a half times the entire core portion.
And scene-build is 3.5 microseconds of IR work plus about 130 of SVG
serialization, which the no-feature run separates: a canvas consuming the IR
directly skips some ninety-eight percent of today's per-edit cost, none of it in
the core.
The sequencing answer is therefore that T4 before T4b stands, for the opposite
reason to the one assumed. The dominant cost at the depths real sessions reach
is the render path Ruling A already demoted, not reduction. T4b's trigger is a
session ten thousand edits deep, and the bench now watches for it as the one
Xfail row.
Two things the bench had to survive being wrong about, both mine. The depth-1000
row was drafted Xfail on the assumption Fact 8 would already bite; it passes
with eightfold margin, the gate's XPASS notice said so, and the row is promoted
here rather than left stale -- which is the whole point of that mechanism. And
the first edit log alternated transposition direction per operation, which is
degenerate when the pitch-list length is even: every edit to a given pitch
pushed the same way, drifting it twenty-five semitones by depth 1000 and would
have been two hundred and fifty by depth 10000. That inflated engrave by a
factor of two and paint by nearly three -- a score-content change wearing a
log-depth costume. Alternating per pass instead bounds drift to one semitone.
The residual content effect is documented rather than hidden: paint is
non-monotonic in depth because pass-count parity decides how many accidentals
the score carries, and reading its dip at depth 10000 as a scaling win would be
a mistake.
Stated limitation: the testkit's largest fixture is three staves by ten
measures, so the engrave and scene-build columns are lower bounds and this
cannot prove the budget holds on the hundred-page orchestral score the
requirement contemplates. It shows where the time goes at the scale we can
build, and a row that misses at this size misses by more at a real one.

All four findings verified against the tree before fixing; all four hold.
The schema-minor MUST (binary_format.tex:2330) has never been implemented.
SchemaVersion::for_major accepts no minor and returns {major, 0}, and both
staging paths derive only the major, so kinds 24-27, 28-29, 30, and 31 already
carry no additive-version record -- and the requirement's own rationale is
exactly what the gap defeats: a reader meeting an appended discriminant cannot
tell a stale vocabulary from damaged bytes. Filed as P13-S14 and ruled a
separate rung after G2a, sweeping 24-33 in one retroactive pass rather than
blocking G2a on a debt eight kinds deep or paying for two partial sweeps. G2a
now says explicitly that it extends the violation by two, knowingly, and
forbids working around the absence.
s7 could not fail. WorkingSnapshot::restore reassigns the whole graph
independently of every write chain, so omitting a chain leaves stale history
while the field still rolls back -- the prescribed assertion passed under its
own mutation. Two framings of this test were wrong; the third asserts against
a later undo's predecessor, and the contract now requires the mutation be run
rather than reasoned about. s8's mutation was impossible as written: each
payload has one field, so there are no adjacent fields to swap. Swapping
discriminants 32/33 in both halves is the self-consistent mutation that leaves
round-trips green and kills correctly-named literal vectors.
The normative repair surface doubles: eleven sites across four documents, five
of them G1 debt. Core's normative OperationKind and OperationKindTag listings
are missing CreateInstrument as well as both new kinds; the catalog's
value-restoration family list is normative for undo and omitting a family is a
silent semantic gap; two spelled-out payload counts move. Since two independent
reviews each found sites the other missed, the list is a floor and the contract
now prescribes grepping the load-bearing phrases.
Also: core_spec said "two edits" and prescribed more, and the split-cost
accounting counted only Text Projection when G2b repeats the Binary Format and
Operation Catalog work too.

The last T4 prerequisite, and the one that had to be a ruling rather than a
packet: a canvas, an exporter, a hit test, and an accessibility tree must agree
about text, and what they agree on is decided by where the shaper runs relative
to the canonical boundary.
The census reframes the tranche. Three of the five categories the plan names --
lyrics, chord symbols, rehearsal marks -- carry no text in the model at all:
LyricLine holds only event references, ChordSymbol and Marker only an anchor.
They are blocked on a core-track schema major, not on this decision. What the
primitive does gate is the text the model already has: score metadata,
instrument and staff names, and text-line spanners. That is a smaller v1 than
the plan implied and a real one, and bidi and fallback are exercised through
synthetic fixtures that need no model work.
The ruling is a fourth resolved primitive carrying the source string and the
canonical shaped result together. The alternative that discards the string
renders a title as anonymous outlines and is unreadable to a screen reader; the
alternative that discards the shaped result lets two consumers draw the same
bytes differently, which contradicts the definition of canonical_bytes as the
rendering fingerprint. Both halves stay, and the apparent trade between
deterministic geometry and accessibility turns out not to exist.
Two drafts were wrong in opposite directions and the errors are recorded rather
than quietly fixed, because each came from asserting a constraint instead of
reading the requirement that governs it. Draft 1 held that shaping before the
canonical boundary poisons cross-implementation byte equality -- but layout
determinism is byte-equal only within one implementation at a fixed version;
across implementations it is reference-suite thresholds, and the spec says so in
both the determinism table and req:solver:cross-implementation-conformance.
Draft 1 had imported the score layer's guarantee into the layout layer, where
the spec deliberately weakens it. Revision 2 then over-corrected, banning host
fonts outright on the grounds that an OS font update breaks fixed-version
stability -- but that requirement defines identical inputs to include font
metrics referenced by version and content hash, so an updated font is a changed
input. The rule that survives is narrower than either: no ambient or unresolved
lookup, and a host face may participate only once resolved to an exact
content-hashed asset every consumer can obtain.
The identity is specified rather than gestured at, because bytes that do not
determine ink are worse than bytes that admit they don't. A face is pinned by a
hash over the font file, not its metrics -- GlyphCatalogIdentity's metrics_hash
covers bounding boxes, advances and anchors, which pins spacing and not shape --
together with face index, variation coordinates and synthetic weight/slant.
Segments carry font-internal glyph ids, source ranges, direction, script,
language and em size; glyph offsets have alignment already applied, so a
consumer places by origin alone; positions quantize on the same 1/1024 grid as
every other primitive. The cluster map indexes UTF-8 byte offsets with caret
stops at grapheme boundaries carrying bidi affinity, and the Unicode
segmentation version is always part of the identity -- otherwise two
implementations could agree on every pixel and still differ inside the
fingerprint, where no visual test would ever see it.
One consequence lands on the exporter: SVG cannot honour "no consumer reshapes"
with <text>, which carries characters and lets the viewer's shaper choose the
glyphs, so a ligature or positional form silently draws something the layout did
not resolve. Conformant text export emits explicit glyphs as paths through the
same face, reusing the mode render-svg already has for music.
The reservation is re-ordered to follow shaping rather than precede it -- with a
canonical shaper in the pipeline, reserved_box becomes a solver policy over
measured bounds, not an estimate of them. Paint-time re-spacing stays forbidden.
Two findings for the core track, named so their absence is a decision. Score
text authored through operations is not NFC-validated: the envelope's NFC-
checked string reader covers only directly encoded strings such as transaction
labels, while SetMetadataOp, CreateStaffOp, CreateInstrumentOp and the cross-
cutting values embed the core codec's bytes, which preserve non-NFC strings by
design. And the .tex amendment adding the primitive changes the layout
fingerprint but needs no bundle or wire schema-major move, following strokes and
curves.

All four findings verified independently against the tree before fixing; all
four hold, and the first is worse than filed.
P1 (normative wire docs) is not a G2a omission but a G1 regression. 3b09595
touched operation_catalog.tex and text_projection.tex and no other .tex, so it
shipped four falsehoods: binary_format's payload-layout and tag tables stop at
kind 30 while 31 is assigned in code, and req:binfmt:kind-discriminants says
each row pins the payload's byte layout; binary_format:2432 still asserts there
is no CreateInstrument; core_spec:12186 still says Canvas.layout_defaults and
Instrument.range reach only the non-canonical snapshot; and the catalog gained
a CreateInstrument section with no version bump against its own convention.
G2a now repairs all four and adds its own two surfaces, with explicit version
and changelog dispositions for binary_format (0.11.0 -> 0.12.0), the catalog
(0.9.0 -> 0.10.0, covering G1 retroactively), and two narrow core_spec edits.
The core_spec:5114 amendment is pinned rather than left to a subagent. The
K8 paragraph has a load-bearing half the ruling does not touch -- root and
canvas remain structural givens no operation mints -- and only the
outside-the-operation-set clause is superseded.
P1 (source) adds ops/src/lib.rs re-exports and the textproj parse.rs literal
HEADER fixture, whose tracking test is a tripwire that fires by design.
P2: s8 and s9 gain the mutations they lacked, and s2's was fabricated --
set_metadata contains no comparison to reverse, it records and overwrites
unconditionally, so the mutation is now setter-local first-write-wins. s7's
framing was backwards: WorkingSnapshot is transaction rollback, so omitting a
chain retains a failed transaction's write rather than losing history, and the
wrong framing would have sent the test hunting the wrong symptom.
Records the G2b holdout: ScoreTuningContext's Codec deliberately drops
accidental_extensions while OperationSet::accept stores envelopes as objects,
so a naive full-value SetTuningContext diverges between a live session and the
same document reloaded -- and canonical_value! cannot see it, because its
check compares bytes and never the originating value.

G2 was scoped as one packet of three LWW setters. Reading the frozen codec
walks rather than the type labels shows they do not sit at the same major:
SpellingPrecedence has never been versioned, CanvasLayoutDefaults is versioned
in the containing Canvas walk and not the leaf, and only ScoreTuningContext is
born at v3. So the accept-set raise — a one-way door — is charged to one
surface, not amortised across nine as the ruling's framing implied. G2 splits:
G2a is the two major-0 setters and touches epiphany-bundle not at all; G2b is
SetTuningContext alone, carrying the raise and the S13 close.
Withdraws plan trap 5. SetMetadata already answers it: Score::empty seeds
metadata exactly as it seeds tuning_context, the base ingest seeds the LWW
chain from it, and restoring that seed is correct for both never-authored and
authored-to-default. These are always-valued fields, not map keys, so the
Predecessor::Base/::Write distinction that matters for spellings and breaks
does not apply here.
Records the G1 lesson as a trap in its own right: an OperationKind variant is
not containable to core+ops, and the G2a contract budgets all three downstream
literal sites up front instead of discovering them mid-dispatch.
Corrects S13's amortisation claim, and states the closure argument properly —
the canonical base is a MaterializedState that embeds no graph values for any
field, so S13 closes on the metadata precedent, not on the base. Notes the
consequence: after G2b, pruning would discard authored state.

Score::empty plus operations alone now materializes a note-bearing Score. The
chain CreateInstrument -> CreateStaff -> CreateRegion -> CreateStaffInstance ->
CreateVoice -> InsertEvent needed exactly one new link: CreateStaff already
demanded a live Instrument and nothing could create one.
Instrument is a root with no outbound references, so the operation carries no
referential preconditions -- only mint and byte-identical re-carry, on the
CreateStaff template. It designs no wire layout: Instrument joins
canonical_value! and the payload is one push_lp_bytes over the existing Codec,
so strict canonical-form rejection is inherited rather than written. Kind 31 and
tag 31 agree; schema_major is unconditionally 2 (Instrument's major-2 appends
are mandatory, not Option-hidden); bundle.rs is untouched and the op-block
accept-set stays 2, since that raise belongs to G2.
Two cross-cutting items the ruling required. Reduction now writes identity for
the first time, deriving next_counter from the log rather than trusting the
seed -- and the implementation is broader than contracted, covering minted
entity ids as well as operation ids, which is right: both burn counters. And the
from-empty path is pinned to reduce_operation_set_onto, since the base-free mode
skips referential preconditions by design; a test documents that asymmetry as
designed rather than as a bug to fix.
The contract's parallel-safety claim was WRONG and this commit corrects it.
Extending OperationKind is not containable to core+ops: Rust exhaustiveness
forces an arm in editor-core's barriers.rs, and because testkit depends on
editor-core, that one missing arm blocked conformance and requirement_labels
too. Three more downstream sites had 31 or a kind-count baked in as a literal --
layout-ir's barrier decode test, testkit's grammar vocabulary count, and the
textproj corpus generator. The subagent found the first two, reverted its
out-of-bounds edit, and reported rather than working around; the user authorized
the boundary crossing. Each literal now carries a comment saying it must move
with every tag append.
The text projection needed a companion bump, which the contract never
anticipated. Adding create-instrument to the kind production while holding
0.7.0 would leave two incompatible grammars claiming one version -- precisely
what the single-version gate exists to prevent -- so COMPANION_VERSION is now
0.8.0, the first kind appended since the header was gated. Cached projections do
not migrate and are not expected to: a TextProjection chunk is a non-canonical
accelerator, so a stale one is regenerated. The negative "wrong version" vector
had to flip, since 0.8.0 was the version it used as its future-and-therefore-
rejected example; it now names 0.7.0, which tests the deferred migrate-on-read
posture better anyway. Test headers that were literals now assert against the
constant.
Gate, all observed: fmt clean; clippy --workspace --all-targets 0 warnings;
1359 passed / 0 failed; requirement_labels 6/6; conformance 8/8 and 9/9 with
golden-gate, 96 decode vectors and 13 textproj vectors, every verdict agreed.
max_supported_major(OperationEnvelopeBlock) verified still 2. Both PDFs rebuilt.
Mutations i1, i3 and i5 re-run independently rather than taken on report: the
spine collapses to TargetMissing without the instrument, an unseeded
instrument_values misreports a base re-carry as RecreateContentMismatch, and a
seed-returning cursor yields 0 where 12 is required.

The ladder is ratified, so this contracts its first rung. CreateInstrument is
the single missing link between Score::empty and a note -- CreateStaff already
demands a live Instrument and nothing can create one -- so one kind satisfies
the ruling's acceptance criteria 1 and 3. Instrument holds no outbound entity
references, so the operation needs no referential preconditions at all, only
mint and idempotence.
Enumerating every CreateStaff site turned up two surfaces PLAN_GENESIS_OPS
under-counted: v0.rs's V0OperationKind and migrate.rs in both directions. The
table now lists fifteen, each anchored to its CreateStaff analogue, and all
twenty-two line citations were checked against the working tree.
It also turned up a gap the plan missed. TypedObjectId::Instrument liveness is
already seeded from the base, but there is no instrument_values map, so
byte-identical re-carry against a BASE instrument has nothing to compare. Pin 8
adds one mirroring staff_values at all six of its sites and calls out the
snapshot/restore pair as the silent one -- missing it surfaces only under
undo/replay, which is why i3 tests that case specifically.
Pinned against the traps this project keeps hitting: schema_major is
unconditionally 2 (Instrument's major-2 appends are mandatory, not
Option-hidden, so the value-dependent arm shape would be wrong); the accept-set
stays 2 and epiphany-bundle is untouched, since the raise belongs to G2 alone;
kind 31 and tag 31 coincide by accident, not by rule, and only the tag half is
compile-enforced; and the decode vector is pinned to literal bytes because
round-trip locking cannot see a self-consistent reorder.
Ten tests, each with the mutation that must kill it, plus an explicit note that
i6 documents a designed asymmetry rather than guarding a bug -- base-free
reduction skips referential preconditions because it has no universe to check
against, and a later reader must not "fix" it.

The W2 contract charters the shared typed glyph-asset seam Ruling A names as a
T4 prerequisite. Scoping it turned up the same shape W1 had: the seam is
already designed and merely unpopulated. PathCommand, GlyphRenderData, and
GlyphCatalog::render_data all exist in layout-ir, and BravuraCatalog returns
None by deliberate documented honesty -- reporting Some would claim render data
that does not exist. So the packet fills a seam rather than building one.
Two findings reshape it from the sketch carried in the W1 contract. Bravura.otf
is not in the tree -- tools/ holds only the extractor script and OFL.txt, and
the generated header pins source hashes verified at extraction time -- so
"have the generator emit typed paths alongside the d strings" cannot be
executed here. The contract replaces it with a dependency-free in-crate parser
over exactly the grammar the generator emits, and proves equivalence by
round-trip: parse every bundled d, re-emit, compare byte-for-byte, with a
sanctioned coordinate-sequence fallback that must be reported if used. And the
metrics table is conformance identity -- metrics_hash hashes (name, metrics)
pairs with values participating, and GlyphCatalogIdentity is encoded into the
resolved layout's canonical bytes -- so it is out of bounds entirely.
The test worth watching is the cross-table one. glyph.rs claims the metrics and
the outlines agree because both came from the same Bravura release; that is
asserted in prose and tested nowhere. The contract requires comparing each
glyph's real outline extent against its declared bbox, reporting the worst-case
deviation, and treating a failure as a finding rather than a reason to widen
the tolerance -- it would mean engraving reserves the wrong space for that
glyph, which is the bug class that twice bit the vertical metric.
Three parallelism claims are corrected in the same pass, all mine and all too
coarse. The plan and the ruling both said T1b's lease/save/single-writer
machinery could be contracted in parallel with the genesis work. That was
written before the ladder existed, and it is now per-rung rather than
unconditional: G1 needs no accept-set raise and never enters epiphany-bundle,
so T1b's bundle work runs beside it, while G2 spends the raise in bundle.rs
where T1b's single-writer enforcement also lands, so those two must not fly
together. Ruling B's blocker note also still described the identity disposition
as blocking; it is ruled, and now points at where.

The ruling names nine surfaces. Each op touches roughly thirteen places -- the
kind variant, four hand-written matches, the decode arm and its validation, the
reduction arm, both text-projection arms, validate, vectors, the fuzz
generators, and the catalog. Nine at thirteen is not one dispatch, so this plans
a ladder rather than a contract.
The load-bearing finding is that G1 is one operation. Score::empty gives
Canvas::default() and empty vectors, and the chain to a note is
CreateInstrument -> CreateStaff -> CreateRegion -> CreateStaffInstance ->
CreateVoice -> InsertEvent, of which only the first is missing. Every later
arrow already exists with graph-aware preconditions. So a single new kind
satisfies the ruling's acceptance criteria 1 and 3 and unblocks T1b.
It is also cheap. Instrument's major-2 appends are mandatory rather than
Option-hidden, so CreateInstrument is unconditionally born at major 2 -- exactly
where CreateStaff already sits, and the op-block accept-set is already 2. No
raise, no wire change. Checked every carried type's fields for the same
property: eight of the nine are major 0 or 2, and SetTuningContext alone drags
OperationEnvelopeBlock to 3, so the raise is spent once in G2, where S13 closes.
The tranche also designs no wire layouts. All nine carried types already have
Codec impls and already ship inside Score; CanonicalValue delegates to them
without introducing a layout, and its generated decode_canonical already
rejects non-canonical encodings, so each payload inherits strict-form
enforcement on the same seam the decode-vector corpus uses.
Traps recorded, including one that would bite quietly: OperationKind's
discriminant match is hand-written and is a DIFFERENT space from the
macro-guarded tag space -- they are not aligned, and Push 4a's four-green-lists
failure is why the tag half is a macro now. Also that bundle.rs documents the
accept-set cap with the tuning-context rationale in prose, so the comment must
move with the number.
Four questions need ratification before a G1 contract: delete/modify coverage
per family, the decomposition_attachments derived-not-authored call, the
measure/meter invariant, and the ladder shape itself.
All fifteen line citations verified against the working tree.

RULING_GENESIS_PERSISTENCE.md §3 was the tranche's stated blocker. Ruled:
identity stays on Score and stays canonically encoded, byte-equality claims
confine to MaterializedState, and from-empty reduction derives next_counter
from the log.
Scoping it turned up that the section understated the problem. Verified in the
tree: epiphany-ops has no `.identity` reference at all, so reduction never
advances the cursor; invariant 11 checks only the reserved replica, never the
counter against ids present; and every mint from score.identity today is under
cfg(test). Score::identity is an authoring cursor reduction never touches, and
this tranche is what activates the hazard -- under from-empty the cursor sits at
the seed while the log already holds that replica's ids at 0..N. Divergent bytes
were the lesser problem, and none of the three options originally listed fixed
the larger one.
The manifest option, previously recommended, is rejected on evidence:
req:format:manifest-id promises two conforming writers derive identical
ManifestIds, which a replica-scoped field in a shipped content-addressed
structure cannot honour. The two wire options each cost schema major 4 on the
role 3b-i just froze at 3, and neither corrects the cursor.
Also reconciles two records against 011c68a. DECISIONS.md flatly prohibited a
SetTuningContext operation, which the ruling now requires; the prohibition is
marked superseded and re-scoped to what it was aimed at -- no tuning-only fix,
no wire widening to compensate -- both of which still hold. PASS13-S13 moves
from blocked-on to resolved-by, naming which of the four dispositions was taken.
Flagged for the tranche, not fixed here: bundle.rs documents the
OperationEnvelopeBlock cap of 2 with the tuning-context rationale in prose, so
that comment becomes false when the cap moves.
Gate: requirement_labels 6/6. No .md here is include_str'd or compiled.

Ratified 2026-07-24, resolving Ruling B blocker (i). Pass-12 K8 is reversed:
every mutable field of Score becomes operation-authored, and a document is
Score::empty(identity) plus its envelope log. The instrument, staff, staff
instance, voice, event chain is authorable end to end.
The decision removes machinery rather than adding it. Every alternative kept
genesis outside the operation set and then had to pay for that: a new chunk
role, a manifest field, an immutability rule, and a merge or fail-closed rule
for a canonical payload with no CRDT semantics. Genesis state is edited —
instruments get added, page geometry changes, temperaments are chosen — and
each alternative made those edits single-writer, unmergeable, or impossible.
Concurrency is a first-order product commitment, so the exception was not
worth institutionalising in the format.
Scope is nine surfaces over two templates already proven in reduce.rs: three
LWW settings setters on the SetMetadata pattern (canvas.layout_defaults,
tuning_context, spelling_precedence) and six entity mint families on the
CreateStaff pattern (instruments, staff_groups, parts, analysis_layers, views,
and StaffInstance.measures), each with graph-aware referential preconditions.
Delete and modify coverage is left to the tranche contract rather than assumed,
since CreateStaff itself ships today with no DeleteStaff.
Measures are ruled authored rather than derived. TimeAnchor::Measure carries a
measure id that cross-cutting structures anchor to, so deriving measures from
the metric grid would make their identity a function of the meter and every
time-signature change would orphan the anchors pointing into them. The cost
accepted is that measure/meter consistency becomes an authoring obligation
backed by a graph invariant.
Three constraints are written in rather than left implicit. Pruning may not be
implemented until the canonical base carries graph values: a prune installs a
MaterializedState base whose effects are outcomes, not payloads, so nothing
rebuilds the score afterward — silent and total, and free to prohibit now
because no prune exists to break. The from-empty path must reduce through
new_onto with an empty Score rather than base-free, because the base-free mode
skips graph-aware preconditions by design and would silently lose referential
enforcement from the first operation. And the OperationEnvelopeBlock accept-set
raise 2 to 3 is spent once, so the new kinds land as one batch — this is a
different major from Push 4b's schema major 3, the Score and Snapshot role wire
that tranche 3b-i froze, and there is no free ride between them.
The analysis is corrected in place rather than rewritten, so the evidence the
ruling rests on stays readable. Two amendments: Measure is a ninth uncovered
surface the original table missed by scoring canvas.regions at container
granularity, and identity is promoted from a stated question to a blocking one
— IdentityContext is replica-scoped yet lives on Score and is encoded, so under
from-empty reduction two replicas with an identical log produce Scores
differing in an encoded field while the music is identical. That disposition
blocks specification of the tranche and is deliberately not ruled here.
Execution belongs to the Push-4b-class coordinated track; the editor track
consumes it. T1b's lease, save, and single-writer machinery does not depend on
the tranche landing and may be contracted in parallel.

Two documents, both prerequisites rather than implementations.
CONTRACT_EDITOR_T4PRE_IR.md charters the layout-IR readiness tranche Ruling A
names as its prerequisite: per-system primitive ownership (W1), the shared
typed glyph-asset seam (W2, contracted but not dispatched), and the text-run
primitive decision (W3, an analysis packet). Its central finding reframes the
work — casting-off already computes the ownership partition and the fold into
ResolvedLayoutIR drops it on the floor, so W1 is "stop discarding it", exact
rather than heuristic. Eight design pins, six named mutations, and a
byte-neutrality gate that keeps the tranche compatible with the Push-4b
freeze.
The contract survived a source-level review that found one real defect: the
blast radius audited ResolvedLayoutIR literals but not ResolvedSystem's, and
pin 1 adds a field to both — editor-core's two-system hit-test fixture is a
full literal with no spread, so the packet could not compile the workspace
without it. Amended, along with the SystemId claim (no *production*
constructor; testkit's random cache generator has one), the stub solver's
total provenance aliasing, and the stroke-continuation citation.
ANALYSIS_GENESIS_PERSISTENCE.md is the field-by-field Score table Ruling B
blocker (i) requires before it can be resolved. It decides nothing; it
establishes what is true. Eight of Score's twenty fields have no operation
that can produce them — canvas.layout_defaults (the printed page geometry),
instruments, staff_groups, parts, tuning_context, spelling_precedence,
analysis_layers, views, plus identity — and decomposition_attachments can be
pruned but never authored. Each is reachable only through a base the reducer
is handed, and pruning is licensed to replace that base with a
MaterializedState carrying none of them.
Three findings follow: the genesis root is unreachable from an empty base
(CreateStaff preconditions a live instrument; nothing creates an instrument),
the canonical base cannot carry what the base-only fields hold, and there is
no canonical wire path from bundle bytes to a Score at all. They are one
problem from three sides — the format has no representation for graph state
that no operation authors.
Four dispositions are laid out with costs: a canonical genesis block, closing
the op-coverage gap, promoting the canonical base to carry graph values, or
scope-limiting T1b. The recommendation is the last now and the third as the
destination, because only that one makes pruning safe for every field rather
than for an enumerated list, and T4b needs the same checkpoint mechanism
regardless.

Ratified 2026-07-24. S13 is re-pointed rather than resolved: the tuning context
is not a special case, it is field 10 of an eight-field gap that
spec/ANALYSIS_GENESIS_PERSISTENCE.md tables across the whole Score —
canvas.layout_defaults, instruments, staff_groups, parts, tuning_context,
spelling_precedence, analysis_layers, views, plus identity, with
decomposition_attachments prunable-but-never-authored. Each is reachable only
through a base the reducer is handed, and pruning is licensed to replace that
base with a MaterializedState carrying none of them.
Independently re-verified against the working tree before recording: every one
of those fields' sole reduce.rs mention is a read-only base-seed read, and
epiphany-ops has no tuning-context payload at all.
So the entry drops the operation-vs-canonical-base framing it was filed with.
That framing was right about the axis and wrong about the scope: it maps onto
the analysis's dispositions B and C at eight times the size, and a
tuning-specific fix is exactly the shape the analysis argues against — "any
option that enumerates fields must be re-audited against this table every time
a field is added to Score". S13 is now marked blocked-on rather than open, and
whichever disposition the genesis ruling picks resolves it as a side effect.
The accept-set cost this entry surfaced is kept, repositioned as evidence
against enumerated per-field fixes rather than as a tuning-only tradeoff:
blocks stamp minimally, and bundle.rs caps OperationEnvelopeBlock at major 2
precisely because no operation payload embeds the tuning context, so a
SetTuningContext-style operation would drag a role accept-set raise along with
the kind append — for one field of eight.
The wire layouts stay frozen and correct under every disposition. This was
never about how the tuning context encodes, only about which carrier embeds it,
so epiphany-core's DECISIONS entry now records the matching prohibition: no
SetTuningContext operation, and no widening of ScoreTuningContext's layout to
compensate.
Docs only; no code path touched. Gate unchanged: fmt clean, 1336 passed /

Schema major 3 put `smufl` and `overrides` on the binary wire and left the text
surface alone. This closes that: `TextValue for ScoreTuningContext` projects
five fields in `fn enc` order, with four new leaf impls (SmuflVersion,
SmuflVersionRequirement, TuningScope, TuningOverride) mirroring the four Codec
impls 3b-i froze.
The rule that moved them is the one this projection always followed — the text
projection is the same canonical surface the binary codec is. What changed was
not the rule but a premise: the old doc comment excluded all three fields
because "no schema major 3 has been opened", and 3b-i opened it.
`accidental_extensions` was staged out of that major and stays in-memory only,
so it is still correctly absent — the staging line now falls in the same place
on both surfaces, which is what the inverted tests assert.
No header-version bump and no document vector moved. This is a value-projection
change, not a document-format one: epiphany-textproj has no reference to a
tuning context anywhere, and the canonical base projects as a single opaque
byte atom (req:textproj:base-snapshot-inline), not structurally. So
req:textproj:header-version's sole accepted version (0 7 0) is untouched, all
13 document vectors are unchanged, and req:textproj:roundtrip was never
violated — the tuning context is not part of the projected document.
Both tests were renamed and inverted, following 3b-i's treatment of the binary
pair rather than rewriting the tranche-2/3a decision entries. Mutation-verified:
making `overrides` project as an always-empty vector — the exact regression this
fixes — fails both.
Two stale-pointer classes fixed, both of the kind this pass was hunting: the
comment in codec.rs naming the old text-test names and claiming the text
surface was unchanged; and ScoreTuningContext's per-field docs in graph.rs,
which still read "In memory only this tranche" for `smufl` and `overrides` —
stale since 3b-i, and contradicting the struct-level wire note they point at.
The struct-level doc was already correct.
Filed P13-S13, found while scoping and deliberately not fixed here: the tuning
context has NO canonical persistence path. Its only *persisted* carrier is the
acceleration snapshot, which Chapter 8 makes non-canonical and regenerable; no
canonical carrier embeds it at all. No operation authors it (the ops
vocabulary's only `tuning` references are the per-pitch TuningReference::Inherit)
and MaterializedState does not carry it. So a per-voice tuning override survives
a snapshot round-trip but cannot be authored, replicated, or merged, which makes
req:tuning:tuning-resolution-order's scopes 2-4 unreachable from any exchangeable
document. Not a regression — nothing ever worked; major 3 made the gap visible
by giving the value a wire form and no way to reach it.
The candidate prices both routes. Ratification is about the carrier, not the
encoding — the layouts are frozen and correct either way — but the operation
route is not quite the free schema-minor it first looks: blocks stamp minimally,
and bundle.rs caps OperationEnvelopeBlock at major 2 precisely because no
operation payload embeds the tuning context. An authoring operation carrying a
TuningOverride would stamp v3, dragging a role accept-set raise along with the
kind append.

The cross-implementation corpus (req:binfmt:decode-vectors) covered ops and
bundle but nothing from epiphany-core — the oldest and most load-bearing wire
in the repo had no vectors at all. 65 -> 93 vectors, 5 -> 19 surfaces.
This delivers a revision the companion had already ordered. binary_format.tex
asked for the corpus to extend to the representative layouts "which remain
round-trip locked rather than literal-byte locked" — a description, written in
advance, of the exact defect found in tranche 3b-i: swapping smufl and
overrides in BOTH halves of ScoreTuningContext's codec silently moved a
permanently frozen layout and passed all 1283 tests and 8/8 conformance. An
encoder and decoder that agree on the wrong order round-trip perfectly. Only
literal bytes can see it.
That mutation is now the mandatory regression vector
(core.score_tuning_context/overrides_before_smufl), and re-applying the swap
was verified to fail three ways: the corpus reports "declared reject, but was
ACCEPTED", the committed corpus goes stale, and the conformance suite fails.
Both the full workspace suite and conformance now catch what previously passed.
Almost no new machinery was needed: CanonicalValue was already public and
already did decode + finish() + re-encode + reject-on-mismatch, and already
covered four of the five representative layouts. RationalTime joins it (the
fifth, and the exemplar of the spec's own warning that an outer guard can mask
a lenient inner codec — it reduces to lowest terms on decode, so only
hand-written bytes reach that path), along with the five schema-major-3 types.
check() therefore calls real production API, not a harness-side wrapper: a
leaf reject vector exercises the code an external implementer must match.
Codec and Reader stay pub(crate); the only new public item is `pub mod
vectors`.
Two things deliberately shaped: core is appended LAST in the testkit chain, so
the regenerated corpus diff is purely additive — 56 insertions, 0 deletions,
which PROVES no existing vector's bytes moved and therefore that no existing
wire form changed. And the per-major Score vectors assert canonical_bytes()
equality only at major 3: majors 0-2 migrate by design, rewriting the bytes,
and their canonicality at their own major is already established by the frozen
per-major encoder's re-encode guard. Comparing there would fail on every
vector and invite "fixing" it by gutting the vector's meaning.
Also rebuilds binary_format.pdf, which commit 68b08ad should have carried and
did not — every other binary_format.tex commit includes it. The rebuild picks
up both that tranche's Schema Major 3 section and this one. latexmk -xelatex

The last fail-closed entry in the built-in tuning catalog now resolves, leaving
only the compatibility-mapping registry open in Push 4b.
The recorded blocker was wrong. Five places in tuning.rs claimed adaptive
"needs HarmonicContext, which does not exist in Rust". But
req:tuning:adaptive-default-version makes version 1 a pure function of
(position, anchor pitch class) — it ignores concurrent, recent, hints,
parameters, and mode. And two of HarmonicContext's four specified fields are
UNIMPLEMENTABLE: key_context and hints are typed on KeyContext / ContextHint,
which core_spec.tex:4111 leaves undefined deliberately, "so defining them now
would freeze a type surface on a chapter with no consumer". The minimal
one-field shape was not a preference; it was the only implementable one. Each
remaining field arrives with the first function that consumes it.
The real blocker was structural and small: locate_voice returned
(RegionId, StaffId) while key_sequence lives on StaffInstance, so the resolver
threw away the only object that could answer "what key is prevailing here".
No new pitch math. ji_static_5limit_ratios already took a runtime anchor — the
three ji-static-5limit-{C,G,D} built-ins are that one function at anchors
0, 7, 2 — so adaptive v1 is that same call with a derived anchor. Verified as
an identity: adaptive at anchor 0 is bit-identical to ji-static-5limit-C and at
anchor 7 to ji-static-5limit-G, across all seven naturals.
A missing tonal centre is NOT an error. core_spec.tex:3452 mandates C
(chromatic position 0) when none is supplied, so that is a defined default, not
a fail-closed case; a test pins it against a future "fail closed" refactor.
Fail-closed applies to exactly two things: an unregistered
AdaptiveTuningFunctionId (hard error, no fallback) and a TimeAnchor that cannot
be unambiguously ordered against the onset (AnchorNotOrderable, naming the kind
that defeated it). If any KeySignatureChange in a sequence is unorderable the
whole derivation fails, rather than risk skipping the true prevailing signature.
Anchor arithmetic is (7 * fifths).rem_euclid(12), never %: fifths reaches -7 and
% yields a negative pitch class. ChromaticPitchClass is a checked 0..=11 newtype,
so the sign bug cannot degrade into a silently wrong anchor — under mutation it
panics outright. Verified by hand across the whole -7..=7 range, including the
enharmonic collisions (6 and -6 both F#/Gb = 6).
Nothing reaches the wire: TuningResolution is catalog-computed and appears in
neither codec.rs nor textvalue_graph.rs, so TuningResolution::Adaptive and
HarmonicContext are in-memory only and schema major 3 is untouched. Zero Codec
impls added; no vector or golden moved.
Gate: fmt clean, clippy 0, 1311 passed / 0 failed, doc 0, conformance 8/8,
requirement labels 6/6 at 212/282/282. Independently verified: the C default,
static systems ignoring context, statelessness across reordered resolution, and
the 0..=11 invariant. Two mutations killed — rem_euclid -> % and a silent
fallback for an unregistered id.

Closes P13-S12. epiphany-layout-ir defined its own SmuflVersion storing the
minor LITERALLY ({1,4} for SMuFL 1.4), so derived Ord sorted 1.3 and 1.4
BEFORE 1.12 — backwards versus SMuFL's real release order — on a direct field
of GlyphCatalogIdentity, which is layout-conformance identity. That bug was
live. The crate graph fixes the direction: layout-ir depends on core, so
core's fraction-normalized minor_centi type is necessarily the survivor.
layout-ir deletes its own and re-exports core's, keeping
epiphany_layout_ir::SmuflVersion resolving for downstream at zero churn.
No wire change: no schema major, no Codec, no decode vector. LayoutCache is a
regenerable major-0 role. The one line that moves bytes is encode_catalog's
.minor -> .minor_centi (04 00 -> 28 00 at offset 2, verified by encoding a
default identity: 60 bytes, unchanged elsewhere).
The tranche also closes S12's OTHER half, which had gone unnoticed: the
ratified shape reached Rust and the binary companion but core_spec.tex never
defined SmuflVersion at all — the exact "undefined leaf" S12 was filed about.
It is now declared once, with the hundredths rule as normative prose and the
release table as a rationale note, cross-referenced from both Chapter 9 sites
so the glyph catalog's version and the tuning context's are visibly one type.
No new req: label; counts stay 212/282/282.
Two ledger claims corrected, both verified false before dispatch rather than
after: PASS13_CANDIDATES.md's S12 entry and epiphany-core/DECISIONS.md's S12
bullet both promised this move would land "with golden regen". Nothing is
pinned to the catalog identity — every ResolvedLayoutIR::canonical_bytes()
assertion is RELATIVE (stability, determinism, and a sensitivity check that
mutates metrics_hash, never smufl_version), and the committed SVG/PNG goldens
embed no identity, only a fixed comment string. There was nothing to
regenerate, and conformance gate [9] never moved.
The fix is locked by a test that names the bug: layout-ir asserts the real
release order through GlyphCatalogIdentity.smufl_version. Mutation-verified
independently by making from_decimal store one-digit minors literally — it
fails with "minor_centi: 20 did not sort before minor_centi: 3", which is
precisely the deleted type's behaviour.

ScoreTuningContext gains `smufl` and `overrides` on the canonical wire.
`accidental_extensions` is deliberately STAGED to a later major: under
req:binfmt:frozen-layout a field addition is a major, so freezing a large
subtree whose consumer (the engraver) does not exist yet buys nothing and
risks a major-4 to fix a mis-shaped field. The three shapes 3a ratified
(Cents/CanonicalF64, AnchorPoint, SmuflVersion) stay reversible until
something exercises them.
Scope discovery: no operation payload embeds the tuning context, anywhere.
So the wire reached is the acceleration full-Score snapshot ONLY — the
canonical operation layer is untouched, no payload is born at v3, no frozen
v2 op-payload decoder is needed, and OperationEnvelopeBlock's accept-set
stays at 2 while Snapshot rises to 3. Major 3 is the first data-model bump
under which a chunk role's max does not move in lockstep. The canonical
base embeds no tuning context and stays major 0, byte-identical.
Migration: the live codec becomes v3; the 3-field form is frozen as
enc/dec_tuning_context_v2 and consumed by decode_v2_score (new, with its
byte-exact inverse encode_v2_score) and by the v0/v1 decoders — AND by
encode_v0_score/encode_v1_score, which the contract missed and which would
have silently corrupted the frozen forms through the strict-canonicality
re-encode check.
The frozen bytes are now pinned by a golden, because nothing else pinned
them. The cross-implementation decode corpus covers only the operation and
bundle surfaces — there is no epiphany-core vectors module — so every
existing test round-trips enc against dec and stays green under a
SELF-CONSISTENT reordering: swapping smufl and overrides in both halves
passed the entire workspace suite and 8/8 conformance, silently moving a
permanently frozen layout. schema_major_3_tuning_context_wire_bytes_are_frozen
asserts the exact encoding of the default (48 B) and a loaded (82 B)
context; it kills that swap. The S12 normalization is visible in the
literal: 1.4 stores minor_centi 40 (0x28), 1.12 stores 12.

Tranche 3 completes ScoreTuningContext onto the wire -- schema major 3, the only
irreversible tranche. Split reversible-first: 3a builds the accidental / glyph /
engraving type surface in memory with a real consumer (so the shapes are
exercised while free to change), 3b freezes them. 3a adds no Codec, no wire
movement; the hand codec keeps encoding exactly three wire fields while
accidental_extensions and smufl join overrides as in-memory-only.
Scoping the subtree surfaced three types that freeze forever and the spec does
not pin -- filed as S10-S12, ratified before dispatch (the S5/S7-before-tranche-1
pattern):
- S10: PitchSpaceModification::Cents(f64) is a raw f64 in canonical state, which
the byte layer cannot encode -- serialize.rs decodes floats only through
CanonicalF64::from_le_bytes. Ratified Cents(CanonicalF64), the same maneuver
Ruling D applied to the bounding box.
- S11: AnchorPoint is referenced (:3166) and defined nowhere; core cannot depend
on layout-ir. Ratified core-native { x, y: SpaceUnit } plus a normative frame
sentence, since the box it anchors is "relative to the glyph's anchor point".
- S12: the catch. SmuflVersion is NOT undefined -- it exists in layout-ir with
LITERAL minor ({1,4}) and derived Ord, so 1.3 sorts before 1.12 today, and it
is a field of GlyphCatalogIdentity (conformance identity). Ratified
fraction-normalized minor_centi (1.4 -> 40); core defines it in 3a, and 3b
unifies layout-ir onto it and moves GlyphCatalogIdentity deliberately.

Makes the ten temperaments deferred by tranche 2 resolve, via
TuningResolution::Function with reserved built-in ids, each computed from its
construction (which fifths tempered, by what fraction of which comma) rather
than a pasted cents table -- the constructions are normative in core_spec.tex
as of 5e465a1.
Its own pass, separate from the resolver plumbing, because this is the
verify-heavy part: the S6 draft shipped two arithmetically impossible
temperaments and one false ambiguity, every one properly cited, caught only by
the closure invariant. So the contract's deliverable is the closure recomputed
in code -- the six circulating temperaments' temperings summing to one
Pythagorean comma, the four non-circulating ones' wolves matching the ratified
residue -- and two construction-level mutations required to prove it bites:
dropping Kirnberger's schisma fifth (the classic omission) and swapping
Werckmeister's Pythagorean comma for syntonic (the classic confusion). The comma
type is the load-bearing distinction no test outside the closure check can see.
Verified before dispatch: all three cited labels resolve, every line ref points
where claimed, and the closure arithmetic checked independently -- syntonic +
schisma = Pythagorean exactly, which is why Kirnberger closes and why omitting
the schisma lands one schisma short.

The reversible half of the remaining tuning work: make tuning resolvable --
(position, tuning system, reference) -> frequency, walking the five resolution
scopes -- entirely in memory, no Codec, canonical bytes byte-identical. The
schema-major-3 wire bump is a separate later tranche, so the resolution logic is
exercised and proven before anything freezes, the same slice discipline tranche
1 used.
Scope is nine of twenty systems: the six tet-* (EqualTemperament) and the three
ji-static-5limit-* (PerPositionRatios computed from the lattice block, not a
pasted table). The ten historical temperaments are tranche 2b -- their own
verify-heavy pass, because that is where S6's two impossible-but-cited
temperaments hid and the code re-derivation deserves the same closure-invariant
scrutiny. ji-adaptive-5limit and the compatibility-mapping registry are deferred
fail-closed, matching the established honest-gap pattern (user ratified both).
Names the struct_codec! trap concretely: adding an in-memory `overrides` field
to ScoreTuningContext breaks the macro (its dec constructs a literal of exactly
the named fields), so the contract requires a hand-written Codec that encodes
the three wire fields and defaults overrides -- with a round-trip test proving
overrides never reaches the wire.
Citations verified line-by-line before dispatch; two were wrong on first draft
(tuning-resolution-order and -compatibility cited by the numbers of unrelated
requirements, one left hedged) and are fixed -- P13-S9's own discipline applied
to the contract that cites P13-S9.

Types, the catalog data that fills them, and the consumer that reads them --
dispatched as one vertical slice rather than the plan's three steps. A Chapter 4
type surface with no consumer is the shape that produced Staff::default_clef and
NOTEHEAD_ANCHORS, so the acceptance test is behavioural: a cmn-24 pitch
transposes end-to-end.
Six of the thirteen built-in pitch spaces are underdetermined by the
specification -- the three ji-* generators and all three of maqam-base,
gamelan-slendro and gamelan-pelog. The contract requires they be represented as
unresolved and reported, never inferred.
Writing it also caught an incomplete paraphrase of
req:tuning:diatonic-chromatic-mapping in the contract's own text: it has three
clauses, not two, and both built-in mappings satisfy all three -- so a
constructor enforcing only the first two would pass every test built from the
catalog. That is P13-S9's discipline applied to the contract that cites it.

S5 and S6 close, which closes the spec half of Push 4b: the JI basis is
full-register (a JiVector is an absolute position -- without the prime-2
exponent, ji-5limit cannot tell C4 from C5), and all twenty tuning systems now
carry constructions rather than names.
S7 is filed retroactively. Its id was minted in PLAN_PUSH4B_TUNING.md marked
"new; file it", ratified as that plan's Ruling C, and implemented in Wave 1a --
but it never entered this ledger, so an id lived outside the index whose whole
job is to be the index. The candidate itself: the specification required every
score to *define* a pitch space, and the data model gives a score no way to do
it. Both "define"s are now "select".
S8 is new and was measured, not argued. TempoShape::Constant legalizes
end_tempo as None *or* equal to start_tempo -- two spellings of one musical
fact -- and TempoSegment encodes the field positionally into canonical state.
Encoding both forms of an otherwise identical score gives 336 bytes and 363.
Nothing normalizes; invariants.rs merely permits both. Everywhere else this
project looked at redundant encodings it ruled the other way: NFC for text, a
total order for collections. Tempo got no equivalent, so two musically
identical scores hash differently. Found sideways -- the branch is untested,
which is why the map_or rewrite could not be mutation-verified there.
S9 is the pattern behind three failures in one day: the citation checker
proves cited-to-defined and never cited-to-relevant, so a citation that
resolves cleanly while supporting nothing passes a fully green gate. An agent
justified "resolved layout is non-canonical" with a requirement about f32; a
dispatch contract of mine put KeySignature in Chapter 10 when the Score Graph
is Chapter 5. And S4 is itself an instance, which is what turned this from
incident into candidate.
The asymmetry is the dangerous part and is recorded with it: a dangling
citation is loud, a wrong one is silent, so repairing the loud kind without
reading the target converts a caught defect into an uncaught one. That is
exactly how S4 happened.
Every line citation in the new entries was re-read against its target before
filing, S9's own discipline applied to S9.

Ten temperaments and the static 5-limit construction were bare names in a
catalog whose own requirement calls the surrounding semantics normative.
They now carry generative rules: which fifths are tempered, by what fraction
of which comma, where the wolf sits when the construction does not force it,
exact ratios, and the closure sum that lets a reader check the whole thing
without leaving the page.
The comma distinction is the load-bearing part and no test in this repo can
see it. Pythagorean for pythagorean, werckmeister-iii and -iv, vallotti and
young-ii; syntonic for the three meantones and both Kirnberger sets, each of
which also carries the schisma-tempered F-sharp--D-flat closing fifth whose
absence made two of these temperaments arithmetically impossible in the first
draft. Verified by recomputation rather than by re-reading: 2 x 10.753 +
1.9537 and 4 x 5.377 + 1.9537 both land on 23.4600 cents exactly.
ji-adaptive-5limit gets version 1 as the key-anchored static scale, identity
"default-v1" with the version inside the machine-visible string, hard error on
anything unregistered. The anchor derivation is pinned to (7 * fifths) mod 12
off the prevailing key signature -- and pinned twice over, because
key_sequence is per-staff and time-anchored, so the staff and the moment both
had to be named or two conforming implementations would disagree on a
modulating score.
The Forward References block stops claiming KeyContext is partially defined
somewhere it is not. It is defined nowhere, stays out of scope, and now
carries the one obligation that matters: whatever completes it must expose a
tonal-centre pitch class the anchor rule can use.
Three new requirements, 209 -> 212. Verified independently of the agent that
did the work: the count by grep, the count constant by mutation, the ten
comma types against the draft, the twelve lattice ratios against a generator,
and the ten deleted lines against the four sites they were supposed to come
from.
Closes P13-S6.

All four open ratifications are decided, and the draft is corrected at both
places where it would have misled the agent that reads it next.
The 12-note 5-limit scale is the contiguous lattice block {3^a 5^b | a in
[-1,2], b in [-1,1]}, octave-reduced and assigned in ascending order from the
anchor. The draft called this one "asymmetric" and offered it third; that name
is an artifact of describing it as a 5x3 grid minus three discarded cells.
Generated from its bounds it discards nothing, fills all twelve chromatic
positions exactly once, and states in one sentence -- which is the property
Ruling B exists to get. The name is now banned normatively.
Two of the three candidates fell to computation rather than preference.
"Symmetric scale 2" makes G-D a 40/27 wolf, so a scale the catalog calls
"anchored to C tonic" would have an unusable dominant. And the draft's own
argument for "symmetric scale 1" -- that its D and Bb match C-based
Pythagorean and quarter-comma meantone -- is false: meantone's are 193.157
and 1006.843 cents, each half a syntonic comma away. It can only hold of
circle-of-fifths position, and even then covers 2 notes of 12 while the other
ten shift a comma between systems. Struck at its site and at the head of the
file, with the numbers, so it cannot be quietly reinstated.
The block also wins on merit: 23 pure intervals of 36 against 22 and 21, and
it gains pure Eb major and G minor for the price of Bb minor.
The three ji-static identifiers are one construction at three anchors -- which
the catalog already said, in the same phrase three times, more strongly than
the vallotti/young-ii naming parallel the draft reasoned from.
ji-adaptive-5limit version 1 is the key-anchored static scale, identity
"default-v1" with the version inside the string. Checking the prerequisite
turned up why that is affordable: KeyContext is not defined anywhere and the
spec puts its completion out of scope, but KeySignature { fifths } already
exists, is canonical, and is encoded -- so the anchor is (7 * fifths) mod 12
today, mode-blind exactly as ruled. C, G and D are fifths 0, 1 and 2; the
catalog's three anchors were never arbitrary.
