# epiphany-core — decisions and Pass 11 candidates This file records (a) the implementation decisions the QUICKSTART asked each agent to make once and document, and (b) the ambiguities discovered while building `epiphany-core`, batched as **Pass 11 candidates** for the spec rather than improvised in code (QUICKSTART, Process notes: *"Ambiguities go into a batch, not into code … Don't open Pass 11 until you have at least three such items batched."*). ## Implementation decisions (QUICKSTART "Decisions you'll need to make") 1. **Replica ID entropy source — `getrandom`.** `ReplicaId::generate` fills 8 bytes from the platform CSPRNG and re-draws until the value is not the reserved `SYSTEM_DERIVED` namespace (Chapter 5: "MUST reject this value … and MUST regenerate"). `ReplicaId::from_entropy` is the deterministic, testable entry point. This is the spec's only sanctioned use of platform randomness (Appendix D §"Randomness"). 2. **Event-arena storage — `slotmap::SlotMap` + `HashMap`.** The slotmap provides generation-checked stale-handle detection (matching the identifier-stability requirement); the hash index provides the required `O(1)`-amortized lookup by `EventId`. Canonical iteration (`iter_canonical` / `ids_canonical`) sorts by `EventId`. 3. **Chunk store backend** — N/A to this crate (Agent D). 4. **Async or sync — sync only.** No async traits anywhere. 5. **MSRV — workspace 1.77** (current stable is used in practice). No exotic features. Additional local decision: **`RationalTime`'s promoted arm uses `num-rational::BigRational`** — the spec's own reference design (Chapter 3 §"Recommended Implementation: Inline-or-Promoted"). Arithmetic takes a fast `i128` path for the inline `Small ⊕ Small` case and promotes only on overflow, re-establishing the "Small iff fits" canonical-form invariant after every operation so demotion is never observable. ## Pass 11 candidates (ambiguities for the spec, not resolved in code) > **RATIFIED (Pass 11, 2026-06-21).** The spec-internal items below have been > ratified into normative `core_spec.tex` text — see > `spec/PASS11_RATIFICATION_LOG.md`. Disposition summary: P11-1/3/6 adopted as > golden (TypedObjectId discriminants, promoted-voice + synthetic-pitch > derivations); P11-2 fixed (count = 19; three construction-time MUSTs named, and > `TupletRatio` now rejects degenerate ratios at construction); P11-4 adopted > (RationalTime/scalar layouts + codec convention baseline the Binary Format > companion inherits); P11-7 decided (tempo `Linear` interpolates speed). P11-5 > remains a scope boundary (Track C). The byte-layout golden tests now cite their > ratified requirements. ### P11-1 — `TypedObjectId` discriminant values are unspecified Chapter 5 fixes the *shape* of `TypedObjectId::canonical_bytes` ("a 16-bit big-endian discriminant followed by the variant payload's canonical bytes") but does **not** assign a numeric discriminant to each variant — and its variant list ends with "`// … and so on for every named object kind`", so the set is explicitly open. Because these bytes enter canonical state (ordering, hashing, equality), the values are normative and must be pinned. This crate assigns discriminants by declaration order starting at 0 (`Event = 0` … `AnalysisLayer = 21`), and — since `TypedObjectId` must name *every* object kind the graph exposes — adds the kinds beyond the spec's explicit list: `Tuplet = 22`, `RepeatStructure = 23`, `LyricLine = 24`, `ChordSymbol = 25`, `View = 26`, then `Registered = 27`. The spec should adopt or override this table and confirm the full kind set. A sub-point: the canonical bytes of `TypedObjectId::Registered(reg, raw)` need a defined layout for the registry id. This crate encodes it as `discriminant(2) || reg.canonical_bytes(16) || raw_be(16)`; the spec should confirm the registry-id encoding (and whether `ObjectKindRegistryId` is a 128-bit value, as assumed here). **Locked (M3 follow-up).** The discriminant table and `Registered` layout are now pinned by a golden-bytes test (`typed_object_id_byte_form_is_locked`): any reorder, discriminant reassignment, or layout change breaks it deliberately, since these bytes are normative (ordering/hashing/equality). The values remain *this crate's proposal* until the spec adopts or overrides them. ### P11-2 — Graph-invariant count: spec body says 19, QUICKSTART says 18 `spec/QUICKSTART.md` (Agent B) refers to "the 18 graph invariants enumerated in Chapter 5", but Chapter 5 §"Graph Invariants" actually enumerates **19** items (1–19). This crate implements all 19 (see `GraphInvariant`). The discrepancy is almost certainly a stale count in the QUICKSTART; the spec body is treated as authoritative. Reconcile the two. ### P11-3 — resolved in M2: promoted voices retain the full derivation inputs Invariant 18 requires a system-promoted voice's `VoiceId` to equal the deterministic derivation of Chapter 5 §"System-Promoted Voices", whose inputs are *(staff instance, original voice, winning op, losing op)* — four ids. But The first-pass `VoiceOrigin::SystemPromoted` recorded only one operation id. M2 resolves the inconsistency by storing `{ winning_operation, losing_operation, original_voice }`; the staff instance remains recoverable from containment. Invariant 18 recomputes the exact derivation and rejects any `SystemPromoted` voice whose id does not match it (not merely a wrong namespace) — see `check_voice_origin_consistent` and the `inv18_flags_fabricated_promoted_voice_id_and_accepts_the_derivation` test. The core spec listing now carries both operation ids. The exact hash-domain derivation remains provisional until the semantic-operations companion ratifies `derive_promoted_voice_id`. **Locked (M3 follow-up).** The 64-byte `MUSCSVCE` preimage — `staff_instance || original_voice || winning_op || losing_op`, each 16 big-endian bytes — and its hash output are pinned by a golden-bytes test (`promoted_voice_id_byte_form_is_locked`), so the layout cannot drift unnoticed; the companion's ratification (or a different derivation) will update both the code and that golden. ### P11-4 — A prototype canonical encoding precedes the Binary Format companion Appendix D and Chapter 8 defer the canonical wire encoding of graph value types to the *Binary Format companion specification* (Agent D), which does not yet exist. To make round-trip serialization testable now (v0 acceptance criterion 4), this crate defines a concrete canonical byte form for its primitives — notably `RationalTime` (sign + length-prefixed big-endian numerator and denominator magnitudes, always reduced) and the wall-clock integers (little-endian, matching `QuantizedCoord`). **M3 follow-up — the whole-score codec (item 5).** `src/codec.rs` now composes those primitives into a total, reversible canonical byte form for the *entire* `Score` graph (`Score::canonical_bytes` / `Score::decode_canonical`), so the materialized graph — not only the Chapter 6 `MaterializedState` bookkeeping — round-trips byte-identically (Agent F's `criterion_4_full_score_byte_roundtrip` drives it through a real bundle snapshot). The form is deliberately uniform: little-endian integers, a single discriminant byte per tagged union, `u32` counts/length-prefixes, every variable-width leaf length-prefixed, and raw (non-NFC-folded) UTF-8 for free-text fields so `decode(encode(x)) == x` for every valid score (catalog ids are already NFC at construction). The two private-field accessors the codec needs (`EventOrderingDAG::edges_ref`, `SpellingPrecedence::order_ref`) are `pub(crate)`. These are deterministic and reversible but provisional: when the Binary Format companion lands, reconcile this crate's `CanonicalEncode`/`CanonicalDecode` and the whole-score `codec` with it (a failing cross-crate round-trip test would be the trigger, per the QUICKSTART process notes). > **Ratified (2026-07-02):** the Binary Format companion now exists > (`spec/binary_format.tex`, v0.1.0). Its Chapter 5 ratifies this crate's > whole-`Score` positional codec, the convention macros, every discriminant > table, and the `CanonicalValue` seam as the schema-major-0 wire form, with > the frozen-layout rule (a field-set change is a schema-major change). No > reconciliation was needed: the companion was transcribed from this codec and > its golden anchors, so the trigger never fired. **Phase 2 — Agent K (Operation Catalog): the `CanonicalValue` seam.** Track B's Operation Catalog shifts `epiphany-ops` from identifier-only operation payloads to *value-typed* ones (an `InsertEvent` carrying the real `Event`, a `RespellPitch` carrying the real `PitchSpelling`). Those payloads must serialize canonically (an envelope stays hashable across an implementation boundary), so `epiphany-ops` needs to canonically encode/decode core value types. The internal `Codec` trait and its `Reader` cursor stay `pub(crate)` (they are composition machinery, not a stable surface); instead `src/codec.rs` exposes a thin **public `CanonicalValue` trait** (`canonical_bytes` / `decode_canonical`) implemented — via a macro that *delegates to the existing `Codec` impls* — for exactly the value types operation payloads embed (`Event`, `Rest`, `PitchSpelling`, `Tie`, `Slur`, `Beam`, `Spanner`, `RegionTimeModel`, `TimeAnchor`). This introduces **no new byte layout**: a `value_codec` test asserts each value's `CanonicalValue` bytes equal the bytes the whole-score codec already embeds for it, so all existing goldens / criterion 4 stay byte-for-byte green. This is the **K↔J coordination seam**: value-type wire encoding is nominally the Binary Format companion's (Agent J) to formalize, but K needs the surface now and J inherits core's ratified conventions (Pass 11 item 1.8, `req:format:codec-conventions`) rather than reconciling a second codec. Rejected alternative: a parallel value codec inside `epiphany-ops` (two sources of truth for one byte layout). ### P11-5 — Scope boundary: the Chapter 4 tuning catalog is referenced, not defined here `epiphany-core` (Agent B) owns the score graph and the pitch/time primitives. It models the *identifiers* of pitch spaces, tuning systems, and accidental registries (`PitchSpaceId`, `TuningSystemId`, …) and the score-level `ScoreTuningContext`, but **not** the Chapter 4 catalog itself: the `PitchSpace`/`TuningSystem`/`AccidentalRegistry` definitions, the normative built-in catalog (`cmn-12`, `tet-12`, …), the hierarchical resolver, the compatibility mappings, and the deterministic position→frequency resolution function. The QUICKSTART's Agent B deliverable list references those by id; they are a separate subsystem (closer to the acoustic engine, Chapter 1, which is explicitly out of core scope). Consequences: - `Pitch::sounding_equivalent` (the third Chapter 2 equivalence) takes a caller-supplied frequency resolver and handles the `AbsoluteHz` fast path; the other two equivalences are fully computed here. Its tolerance is the named `ToleranceClass::AcousticCents` (Appendix D forbids ad-hoc epsilons), not a raw `f64`; a wrong-class or non-finite comparison never matches. - Tempo conversion integrates the piecewise map in closed form for `Constant`/`Linear`/`Exponential` segments (Chapter 3 §"Conversion"); only `TempoShape::Curve` is deferred (`TempoError::CurveIntegrationUnsupported`), per QUICKSTART. The inverse uses a deterministic continued-fraction rational approximation with documented bounds (`INVERSION_*`). See P11-7. If a later phase decides the catalog belongs in `epiphany-core`, it is additive (new modules behind the existing ids); nothing here needs to change. Recorded so the boundary is explicit rather than a silent omission. ### P11-6 — System-derived (synthetic) pitch derivation inputs are unspecified Chapter 5 reserves the `SYSTEM_DERIVED` replica namespace for deterministically-derived identifiers (system-promoted voices *and* content-derived synthetic pitches via the `MUSCSPCH` domain tag) but, as with promoted voices (P11-3), defers the exact derivation *function* for synthetic pitches. Invariant 11 now requires a `SYSTEM_DERIVED` embedded `PitchId` to *prove* its namespace: its counter must equal the deterministic derivation of its own pitch content, rather than being accepted unconditionally. **Prototype convention (enforced):** `derive_system_pitch_id` content-addresses the pitch from a fixed canonical byte form of its intrinsic identity (scale position + acoustic realization; strings length-prefixed and NFC). The spec should pin the canonical input layout (or define a different derivation). **Locked (M3 follow-up).** `canonical_pitch_bytes` now NFC-normalizes its string fields *at the derivation boundary* (not merely relying on catalog ids being NFC at construction), making the "NFC" guarantee explicit, and the `MUSCSPCH` input layout + hash output are pinned by a golden-bytes test (`system_pitch_id_byte_form_is_locked`). The exact field set ("intrinsic identity") and layout are still this crate's proposal pending spec ratification. ### P11-7 — Tempo "Linear" interpolation parameter Chapter 3 says a `Linear` segment is "linear interpolation from `start_tempo` to `end_tempo`" without pinning *what* interpolates linearly (bpm, period, or speed). This crate interpolates **speed** (whole notes per second) linearly, which is beat-unit-agnostic and coincides with linear-bpm when the two tempos share a beat unit. `Exponential` interpolates speed geometrically. The spec should confirm the parameter (it affects the derived wall-clock schedule). ## Enforced-at-construction invariants (Chapter 3 "reject at construction") Three Chapter-3 well-formedness rules are not in the Chapter 5 §"Graph Invariants" enumeration but are MUSTs the spec says to "reject at construction". This crate enforces them in the constructors (so a malformed value cannot exist), which is both faithful and removes the need for a runtime pass: - `TimeSignature::new` rejects beat groups that do not sum to the measure duration. - `EventOrderingDAG::try_new` rejects a cyclic aleatoric ordering. - `TupletRatio::new` rejects degenerate ratios (either term zero, or `actual == notated`); its fields are private, so a degenerate `TupletRatio` is never representable, and codec decode re-validates through the same constructor. (Pass 11 item 3.5 moved this from a runtime invariant-16 sub-check to a construction-time MUST.) ## Phase 2 — Agent H (spelling + decomposition pre-passes) The two sanctioned v0 stubs (`pitch::spell` returning a trivial middle-C; no decomposition algorithm) are now real, in `src/prepass.rs`. `spell` now takes the full `&Pitch` (was `AcousticPitch` by value): spelling needs the scale position, which `AcousticPitch` does not carry, so the old signature could not have done real work — a breaking but necessary change (the only callers were in-crate). The pre-passes are **canonical derived annotations** (PHASE2_QUICKSTART §H): pure functions of `(materialized Score, profile, SpellingAlgorithmId, DecompositionAlgorithmId)`, recomputed on materialization, never stored. They do **not** enter the canonical `Score` bytes — there is deliberately no codec for `DerivedAnnotations` — so the Chapter-6 reducer and criteria 4/5 are untouched (the conformance suite stays green). `derive_annotations(&Score, &PrePassProfile)` is the entry point a materializer (F's integration harness) calls after reduction completes. ### Phase-2 decisions made (the five the dispatch asked H to make once) 1. **Spelling algorithm — Temperley line-of-fifths, registered as `SpellingAlgorithmId::default_id()` (`"default"`).** A per-voice centre-of-gravity preference rule over the line of fifths (each note picks the tonal-pitch-class spelling closest to a running window of recent spellings, broken by accidental simplicity, then melodic direction, then a total order on the lof value). It is deterministic, key-free (infers tonal context from the melody itself), and spells diatonic music in sharp/flat keys correctly (verified against C/D-major and B♭-major scales and sharp/flat contexts in the `prepass::tests` suite). Authored CMN scale positions are **preserved, not re-spelled** (an authored C♯ stays C♯); the algorithm only *decides* spelling for integer/chromatic (12-EDO) input, which is where spelling is genuinely undetermined. Chosen over Longuet-Higgins line-of-fifths because it is the best-documented and has the cleanest deterministic constraint formulation (PHASE2_QUICKSTART recommendation). **Awaits G ratification in Pass 12** (Pass 11 is closed), per the dispatch's "or Pass 12 if the call slips." 2. **Decomposition algorithm — metric greedy-aligned splitting, registered as `DecompositionAlgorithmId::default_id()` (`"default"`).** All grid logic is integer arithmetic over a `1/4096`-of-a-whole-note grid, so every note value to a (single-)dotted sixty-fourth is exact and the derivation is deterministic. A duration is split at barlines (with ties), then within a measure each span is emitted as the single notated value it equals **unless** it would cross a dyadic boundary at least as strong as the one it starts on (the beat-clarity/syncopation rule), in which case it splits at the strongest interior boundary and ties across. Tuplet members convert sounding→notated in the exact rational domain *before* gridding (a triplet eighth's sounding `1/12` is non-dyadic; its notated `1/8` is), then decompose and carry tuplet membership. Components' sounding durations sum to the event's (invariant 15). The remaining three Phase-2 decisions (solver architecture, renderer SVG dialect, catalog/companion versioning) belong to Agents I/K/J, not H. ### Eligibility taxonomy `derive_annotations` classifies and **counts** every event and embedded pitch into explicit buckets (`TaxonomyReport`), so "ineligible" is never silently absent (PHASE2_QUICKSTART §H): pitched events → spelling per pitch + decomposition (if metric, determinate musical duration); rests/unpitched → decomposition, no pitch spelling; trajectory pitches are spelled but the event is not decomposed; graphic/indeterminate/cue → neither; non-`cmn-12`-determinable pitch spaces → `spelling_unavailable`; proportional/aleatoric regions → `decomposition_deferred_nonmetric`. ### Precedence rule (H formalizes the rule, not the model) `resolve_spelling` layers authored overrides above the inferred default: an engraved-layer, pitch-scoped, `Explicit` `SpellingAttachment` whose `SpellingSource` kind outranks `Inferred` in the score's `SpellingPrecedence` wins; otherwise the algorithm's spelling stands. This is the precedence a `RespellPitch` override rides on. **Coordination with K:** the v0 `RespellPitchOp` carries only a `ContentHash` *fingerprint* of the new spelling (P11-C1), so an override's spelling *value* is not reconstructable from a v0 op alone; H's rule operates on the authored `SpellingAttachment`s present on the materialized `Score` (set by imports/analysis today, by K's real value-typed payloads in Phase 2). The rule itself is value-independent and final. ### Pass 12 candidates (batched for F's Pass 12 tracker; ≥3, so the batch opens) - **P12-H1 — Ratify `SpellingAlgorithmId::Default` = Temperley line-of-fifths v1.** The algorithm choice is H's call to propose and G's to ratify; Pass 11 closed before H landed, so this is the first Pass 12 item. Until ratified the id `"default"` is this crate's proposal (it is *not* a byte-layout, so nothing golden-locks on it). - **P12-H2 — `KeySignatureChange` / `ClefChange` are anchor-only placeholders** (Chapter 7 detail deferred). Context-aware spelling therefore infers tonal context from the melody (line-of-fifths centre of gravity) rather than a *declared* key. A real key-signature/clef content model would let spelling and decomposition honour declared keys/clefs and place natural signs to cancel a key; flagged as a graph-model gap, not improvised here. - **P12-H3 — Chromatic-run convention** (ascending = sharps, descending = flats) is only a *tiebreak* in the centre-of-gravity rule, so an isolated chromatic run with no tonal context may pick the enharmonic the convention would not. A voice-leading refinement is a Pass-12 candidate (the dispatch sanctions deferring hard chromatic cases). - **P12-H4 — Decomposition simplifications:** single governing meter per region (multi-meter / mid-region meter changes deferred); region origin assumed to be a barline (anacrusis/pickup deferred); compound-meter (6/8…) beat-group grouping beyond the dyadic default; tuplet nesting and cross-beat tuplet members; double (and higher) augmentation dots — `MAX_DOTS = 1` for v1, so a double-dotted value is written as tied single/dotted values (correct, if not the most compact). - **P12-H5 — Automatic spelling under aleatoric regions** (the spec's open question). H spells pitches region-independently (pitch identity does not depend on the time model) but performs no region-specific aleatoric spelling; defer if the algorithm does not generalise cleanly. ## Audit follow-up (2026-07-01): decomposition precedence + typed inversion tolerance ### Authored decomposition attachments outrank the pre-pass (`resolve_decomposition`) Audit finding: `infer_decompositions` never consulted `Score.decomposition_attachments`, so an authored decomposition was silently shadowed by the derived one — violating Chapter 3 §"Sounding Duration and Notational Decomposition": the pre-pass "produces inferred decompositions for events that **lack a higher-precedence attachment**", with the "same sources, same precedence machinery, same pre-pass discipline" as spelling. Fixed by `resolve_decomposition`, the decomposition analogue of `resolve_spelling`: for each event the pre-pass inferred a decomposition for, an authored `DecompositionAttachment` targeting that event whose source **outranks `Inferred`** replaces the derived one in `DerivedAnnotations.decompositions` (the effective attachment keeps its authored source, so provenance is visible and enters the derivation fingerprint). Precedence is the spec's default source order — `UserChosen > Imported > Propagated > Inferred` — as a fixed rank, because the graph model carries **no** `DecompositionPrecedence` configuration and the attachment has no `priority`/`layer` axes (unlike `SpellingAttachment`); among competing authored attachments the lowest rank wins, and a full rank tie keeps the first in the score's canonical (codec-fixed) `decomposition_attachments` order, so resolution is deterministic across replicas. **Taxonomy decision:** authored-override events are counted **distinctly** in a new `TaxonomyReport::decompositions_authored` bucket (mirroring `spellings_authored`); `decompositions_inferred` now counts only events whose *effective* decomposition is the pre-pass's own. The effective map size equals `decompositions_inferred + decompositions_authored` (the H harness's accounting check was updated accordingly). The new bucket is serialized in `DerivedAnnotations::canonical_fingerprint` with the other counts. **Scope, mirroring spelling:** resolution layers overrides above the pre-pass's *inferred* output only. An authored attachment on an event the pre-pass emits nothing for (ungriddable / non-metric / inapplicable kind) does not surface as a derived annotation — exactly as a spelling attachment on a spelling-unavailable pitch does not (the attachment still lives in canonical `Score` state either way). Two genuine ambiguities are batched, not improvised: - **P12-H6 — Decomposition precedence configurability.** Chapter 3 says "same precedence machinery" as spelling, and Chapter 2 makes the spelling order *configurable* per score (`SpellingPrecedence`, plus `priority`/timestamp tie-breaks); but the graph model has no `DecompositionPrecedence` field and `DecompositionAttachment` has no `priority`. Whether decomposition precedence should be configurable (a new canonical `Score` field — a codec/ratification change), share `SpellingPrecedence`, or stay the fixed spec default needs a spec disposition. Until then the fixed default order is implemented. - **P12-H7 — Authored decompositions for events the pre-pass cannot infer for.** An authored attachment is precisely how a user would notate an event the algorithm reports ungriddable, yet the derived-annotation surface only resolves overrides where an inferred output exists (the spelling mirror). Whether authored attachments should surface in `DerivedAnnotations` for inference-ineligible events (and how the taxonomy should count them) is a spec question for both pre-passes. ### Typed inversion tolerance (`tempo::inversion_tolerance`) `INVERSION_TOLERANCE_WHOLE_NOTES` was a bare public `f64` documented as belonging to tolerance class `TempoIntegration` but never constructed as a `Tolerance` (Appendix D §"Tolerance Classes": no ad-hoc epsilons). It is now the private raw magnitude behind the public `inversion_tolerance()` — a `Tolerance { class: TempoIntegration, absolute: 1e-6, relative: None, governance: Validation }` (the same construction pattern as the existing `speed_degeneracy_tolerance`). Behavior is numerically identical: the inverse conversion passes `inversion_tolerance().absolute.get()` (exactly `1e-6`) to the continued-fraction approximation. Note the class's *non-normative* unit label is "wallclock seconds" while this residual is measured in whole notes; the class identity (`TempoIntegration`: conversion residual in either direction) is what is normative. ## Pass 12 G-pass (2026-07-07): the H rows are ratified All seven H rows are retired (dispositions in `spec/PASS12_RATIFICATION_LOG.md`, "G-pass tranche"; worklist `spec/PASS12_WORKLIST.md`). Summary: **H1** `"default"` = Temperley line-of-fifths v1 is ratified normative (`req:pitch:spelling-algorithm`); **H3** convention-as-tiebreak and **H5** region-time-model-independence are pinned as properties of that versioned algorithm; **H4** the five decomposition bounds are the declared normative bounds of `"default"` v1 (`req:time:decomposition-algorithm`; C5's derived-notation gap is subsumed); **H6** decomposition precedence is ratified FIXED (not configurable — a configurable order would be a schema-major `Score` field with no consumer); **H2** narrowed (the content model landed in I-0; key-aware spelling is algorithm-v2 territory, cancelling naturals a notation refinement); **H7** decided the other way from the implementation: authored attachments on inference-ineligible targets MUST surface in derived annotations (`req:pitch:authored-uninferred`) — the code change lands with the G-pass code tranche (authored-only resolution paths + distinct taxonomy buckets in both pre-passes). Also ratified here: system-derived intrinsic content is immutable under reduction (P12-K3; core Ch5 states it, the catalog pins the precondition, `epiphany-ops` implements). ### G-pass follow-up (2026-07-07): unsupported algorithm ids now ERROR A post-commit review found the ratified requirement and the implementation disagreeing: `req:pitch:spelling-algorithm` / `req:time:decomposition-algorithm` say a profile requesting an unregistered id MUST **error**, but `derive_annotations` still implemented the pre-ratification behavior (that pre-pass "derives nothing" while the requested id stays in the result profile — the honest-cache-key rationale), and a test locked it. The MUST-error contract is the right one and stands: a silently-empty derivation is indistinguishable from a legitimately empty score, and an implementation that *does* support the requested algorithm would produce real annotations while this one quietly produced none — two "successful" results that disagree. Fixed: `derive_annotations` returns `Result` (`UnsupportedSpellingAlgorithm` / `UnsupportedDecompositionAlgorithm`, rejected up front); every production caller uses the default profile and `.expect`s; the stale test is rewritten as `unknown_algorithm_ids_error`. CONFORMANCE.md's long-standing "errors" claim is now true rather than aspirational. ## Schema major 2, Phase B: the snapshot side (data-model fills + frozen v1) The nine type bodies fill to the ratified Ch5 shapes (Binary Format §Schema Major 2): Slur/Tie/Beam/Spanner (kind/curvature/sub-beams/geometry/style — one shared `SpanStyle`), RepeatStructure (kind/voltas), Staff (default_clef), StaffLineConfiguration (spacing/style/bracket), Instrument (six fields), ScoreMetadata (six fields incl. the strictly-authored timestamps). All new leaf types live in `graph.rs` with the ratified wire discriminants in `codec.rs` (`tag_only_codec!` for the tag-only enums). **The frozen-form architecture generalized:** major 2's fills reach types the v0 walk had treated as "unchanged" (`metadata`, `staves`, `cross_cutting`, and — transitively through `Region.content` — the staff instances), so the frozen wire forms are now a *shared sub-codec layer*: `enc_/dec_*_v1` functions (v0 == v1 for every type major 2 changed) used by BOTH `decode_v1_score`/`encode_v1_score` (new) and the v0 pair (updated to route through them). Each versioned decoder stays strictly canonical over its own wire form (re-encode-and-compare, the fuzzer-P1 discipline) and the fuzzer corpus gained genuine-v1 forms + the major-2 seam. The `v1_score_migrates_default_filling_the_major_2_fields` size anchor pins that v1 omits exactly the appended default bytes (so the frozen encoder cannot silently drift), and `current_major_round_trips_non_default_values_for_every_major_2_field` exercises every new field (and every payload-carrying SpannerKind variant) as real wire content. **Deliberate scope choices:** generator fixtures were NOT given non-default v2 content — that would churn the render goldens and reference-suite metrics for zero coverage the codec tests don't already provide; ops-level coverage arrives when Phase D's valuegen builders emit v2 values. `Score::empty` keeps its signature (Timestamp(0) is the ratified unset convention; a creation-time builder waits for a producer, e.g. import). ## Schema major 2, Phase D — repeat coverage lands; the anchor-site walk gets one home The Phase-B promise above ("ops-level coverage arrives when Phase D's valuegen builders emit v2 values") is discharged: `epiphany-ops::valuegen` gained `event_anchor`/`repeat_structure`/`volta_repeat`, the op generators emit the pair, and the decode fuzzer's corpus gains `valid_score_rich_with_repeats` (DalSegno + voltas) — **corpus-local**, not in the shared `valid_score_rich`: the shared fixture feeds the render goldens, and repeat rendering is deliberately E1's churn, not D's (the zero-golden-churn discipline). `RepeatStructure::anchor_sites()`/`anchor_sites_mut()` (graph.rs) are now THE site-set walk (start/end, kind jump targets, volta spans). Review found the set hand-rolled in five places across three crates — and a sixth, `indexes.rs`, silently stale since Phase B (it indexed only start/end, missing every kind/volta anchor, contradicting its own doc). All flat walks now consume the method (the classified per-site invariant check keeps its exhaustive match for message attribution); the index gap is regression-locked in `indexes_build_and_answer_queries`. ## The interval algebra, and the type that already existed (Push 4a, 2026-07-09) `req:pitch:transposition` (core Ch2, §"Transposition and the Interval Type") pins the action of a `TranspositionInterval { d, c }` on a `PitchSpacePosition::Cmn`. With `n` the nominal's normative discriminant and `s = nominal.chromatic() + alteration + 12*octave`: nominal' = CmnNominal((n + d).rem_euclid(7)) octave' = octave + (n + d).div_euclid(7) alteration' = (s + c) - (nominal'.chromatic() + 12*octave') The diatonic component alone picks the nominal and octave; the alteration absorbs the residue. C4 + (7, 12) = C5, not "C with twelve sharps". C4 + (0, 1) = C#4, so the editor's sharpen keeps its exact current behaviour. **The type was already here.** `TranspositionInterval` has lived in `graph.rs` since schema major 2, carrying `Instrument.transposition` (a B-flat clarinet is `-1` diatonic, `-2` chromatic), already codec'd, already exported. It is byte-for-byte the pair transposition needs, so Push 4a reuses it rather than minting an `Interval` beside it. The spec now lists it once, in Chapter 2; the Chapter 5 `Instrument` block references that listing instead of repeating it. Two normative listings of one struct is the drift the P13-I1 fix just closed. Its doc claimed it was "ADVISORY until the Chapter 4 tuning catalog pins interval algebra". That was the P12-K2 false coupling, repeated. Transposition acts on `scale_position`; tuning acts on `acoustic`; the two never touch. The algebra is pinned here with no tuning catalog anywhere in sight. What remains genuinely unimplemented is the *automatic application* of an instrument's interval at the written/sounding boundary — nothing respells a written part into a sounding one — so `Instrument.transposition` stays advisory, for that reason and not the stated one. **Refusal, not saturation, and never a panic.** All arithmetic widens to `i64` first. `i32` is not wide enough to hold the intermediates of an `i32` interval: the first version of `transposed` panicked on `diatonic_steps = i32::MAX` at `12 * new_octave`, and `inverse()` panicked on `i32::MIN`. Refusing is the contract; panicking on a value the public type admits is not. (Under `overflow-checks = false` — any downstream release build — those expressions wrapped instead. A 10.5M-case sweep of wrapping-vs-exact found *no* input where wrapping produced a wrong `Ok` rather than a refusal, so the defect was a panic, not silent corruption. `inverse()` now returns `Option`, because an interval whose inverse is not representable is a fact about the type.) `alteration` and `octave` are `i8`. A transposition whose result does not fit refuses; so does one against a non-`Cmn` position (no nominal to move), a `Cmn` position whose enclosing chromatic structure cannot be established, or an `AcousticRealization::AbsoluteHz` pitch (which overrides the tuning system, so moving the scale position moves the notehead without moving the sound). Saturation or guessed pitch-space arithmetic is the worst possible failure because it is invisible: it produces a pitch nobody asked for, reports success, and destroys the evidence. See `epiphany-ops/DECISIONS.md` §"Push 4a" for the operation-level consequences and the frozen `Transpose`. ## Push 4b (the Chapter 4 tuning catalog) — remaining implementation blockers Push 4a proved that built-in `cmn-12` transposition needs no tuning catalog. P13-S2 subsequently made the general algebra space-relative: interpreting a `Cmn` alteration requires the enclosing space's chromatic cardinality and nominal map. The specification contradiction is resolved, but the registry implementation is now an explicit part of Push 4b. Remaining blockers: - **Resolve pitch-space structure, then remove the interim name gate.** Until the registry exists, `Pitch::transposed` and the `twelve_tet_*` helpers fail closed for `Cmn` positions outside built-in `cmn-12`. Push 4b must resolve `PitchSpaceId` to `PositionStructure::DiatonicOverChromatic`, use its `chromatic_positions_per_octave` and `nominal_to_chromatic` mapping, and replace identifier recognition rather than preserving it as policy (P13-S2; `req:pitch:alteration-unit`, `req:pitch:space-capability-refusal`). - **The core stores only the default space, tuning, and reference.** The overrides, accidental extensions, and SMuFL target Chapter 4 requires are absent, and none of the catalog/resolver types exist (`ScoreTuningContext` in `graph.rs` is the whole surface today). P13-S1 removed the former requirement-label blocker; Chapter 4's requirements are now independently citable. The two remaining Push-4a audit claims, carried here as **unverified** through two passes, were checked on 2026-07-22. **Both are real**, and both are Chapter 4 defects standing in front of 4b rather than inside it. Filed as P13-S5 and P13-S6: - **The JI prime basis is specified at two lengths** (P13-S5). `req:pitch:ji-vector-basis` says the built-in JI spaces order primes ascending *starting with 2* and that `components.len()` must equal the basis size; the built-in table calls `ji-5limit` "Two-dimensional (prime axes 3, 5)", `ji-7limit` three-dimensional, `ji-11limit` four-dimensional — each exactly one short, consistently, the table being octave-reduced and the requirement full-register. Both are normative, so a 5-limit vector must be both length 2 and length 3. The requirement's octave-reduction clause normalizes the first component; it does not remove it. - **No built-in tuning system's resolution is pinned** (P13-S6), and 14 of the 20 have no definition at all — only the six `tet-*` are specified, by `EqualTemperament`'s structural rule. `TuningResolution::Function` delegates the historical temperaments to a `TuningFunctionId` that Chapter 10 lists as an *extension point*; no built-in is mapped to one and none is pinned. Against `req:tuning:tuning-resolution-determinism`, which requires determinism across platforms, two conforming implementations may choose different published variants of Werckmeister III and both pass. The original phrasing understated the second: it is not missing ratio data but an unpinned resolution contract, and `req:pitch:spelling-algorithm`'s versioned `SpellingAlgorithmId "default"` is the in-house pattern for fixing it. ## The Text Projection value layer (`textvalue*.rs`) The Chapter-5 half of the Text Projection companion: `project` and `parse` for every value an operation payload can embed. **One field list drives both forms.** `struct_codec!`, `unit_codec!`, `cstyle_enum_codec!` and `catalog_id_codec!` now emit a `TextValue` impl beside the `Codec` impl, from the *same* invocation — 116 types whose field order cannot disagree between the binary form and the text, at zero call-site churn. This is the companion's own rationale applied to code: *a rule cannot drift from the listing it reads*, and two listings of one struct is the drift this project has already been bitten by (P13-I1). The `struct_codec!` expansion rebuilds through a struct literal and `cstyle_enum_codec!` matches exhaustively, so a field or variant added later **fails to compile** rather than silently vanishing from the text. The remaining 44 types have hand-written `Codec` impls and so need hand-written projections. Their field order was verified by a **mechanical diff** of the identifier sequence in each `fn enc` against the one in each `project`; all 44 agree. Six apparent mismatches were regex artifacts — single-field variants whose binding is named differently on each side, and `.iter().map(…)` forms the pattern missed — each checked by hand. **Strictness is per-site, and the whole-value layer turned out to be dead.** The binary decoders enforce `req:binfmt`-style canonicality in two layers: a re-encode-and-compare guard, plus per-site checks for the order-preserving fields that guard is blind to. The text layer was built the same way, and then mutation-tested. The result: | check | verdict | |---|---| | set / map strictly-increasing walk | **live** | | `RationalTime` lowest-terms compare before construction | **live** | | catalog-id NFC intern-and-compare | **live** | | `EventArena` ascending-`EventId` walk | **live** | | `ensure_canonical` on `Tempo` | dead — removed | | `ensure_canonical` on `ReferencePitch` | dead — removed | | `ensure_canonical` on `SpellingPrecedence` | dead — removed | | `ensure_canonical` on `EventOrderingDAG` | dead — removed | A whole-value guard can only fire when a parse **normalizes**. Every Chapter-5 constructor that normalizes (`RationalTime::new` reduces, `X::new` folds to NFC, `EventArena::insert` re-sorts, `BTreeSet`/`BTreeMap` re-sort) needed a check that *names the fault* anyway. The four constructors left — `Tempo::new`, `ReferencePitch::new`, `SpellingPrecedence::new`, `EventOrderingDAG::try_new` — **reject rather than adjust**, so an accepted value re-projects to exactly its input and the guard could never fire. A probe confirmed `try_new` returns its input map unchanged. The helper and all four call sites were removed: *a check that cannot fail is worse than no check, because it invites weakening the real one* — the same finding as the reader's two diagnostic-only branches. **What no round-trip test can see.** Two blind spots, both closed elsewhere: 1. *Field order.* A `project`/`parse` pair that agrees with itself on a wrong order round-trips perfectly, and two adjacent same-typed fields swapped in both directions are invisible to the compiler too. Closed by construction for the 116 macro types and by the mechanical diff for the 44 hand-written ones. 2. *Constructor names.* `Sexp::sym("measured-fracton")` round-trips, because `parse` reads back the same wrong symbol `project` wrote. Closed by `tests/textvalue_names.rs`, which recovers each type's Rust name from its derived `Debug` and compares it to the symbol actually emitted. **One method error worth recording.** The work list came from `cargo check` errors, but the compiler reports only the *frontier* — `AnchorOffset`, `VoiceSelector`, `PowerOfTwo`, `OctaveOffset` and `NonZeroU16` were each hidden behind a type that had not compiled yet. The list has to be iterated to a fixpoint, never taken once. ## Push 4b tranche 1: the pitch-space vocabulary lands, in memory, with a real consumer `spec/CONTRACT_PUSH4B_PITCHSPACES.md`, dispatched as one vertical slice: types, the built-in catalog data that fills them, and the consumer that reads them, landing together rather than as three separate steps. The acceptance test is behavioural — a `cmn-24` pitch transposes end-to-end, with the resulting scale position asserted, not merely `is_ok()` — because a Chapter 4 type surface with no consumer is the `Staff::default_clef` / `NOTEHEAD_ANCHORS` shape this project has already paid for twice. **New module `src/pitch_space.rs`.** `PositionStructure` (all four variants: `Chromatic`, `DiatonicOverChromatic`, `JiLattice`, `Registered`), the checked constructor `PositionStructure::diatonic_over_chromatic` (enforces all three clauses of `req:tuning:diatonic-chromatic-mapping` — length, range, strictly increasing — the way `KeySignature::new` rejects out-of-range fifths), `JiRatio`, `IntervalAlgebra`, `TranspositionBehavior`, `SpellingRuleSet`, and `PitchSpace` itself, transcribed field-for-field from the specification's own listings. Plus `built_in_position_structure(&PitchSpaceId) -> Option`, the built-in catalog: the seven fully-determined spaces (`cmn-12`, `cmn-24`, `edo-19/22/31/53/72`) resolve; the six the specification names but does not structurally determine (the three `ji-*` lattice generators, `maqam-base`, `gamelan-slendro`, `gamelan-pelog`) return `None`, with a per-space comment recording exactly what the table does and does not fix, rather than a value this project would later discover was invented. `PositionStructureRegistryId`, `IntervalAlgebraRegistryId`, and `TranspositionRegistryId` (new `catalog_id!` entries in `pitch.rs`) back the three `Registered` variants. **`SpellingParameters` is a deliberate zero-field marker, not a transcription.** `SpellingRuleSet.parameters: SpellingParameters` is in the specification's own listing, but `SpellingParameters`' shape is never given anywhere in `core_spec.tex` — Chapter 4 calls the parameter schema of registered spelling algorithms an open question outright ("the catalog of *additional* registered spelling algorithms ... and their parameter schemas, which are normative once registered"), and the one currently-registered algorithm (`"default"`, `req:pitch:spelling-algorithm`) is a fixed rule with none. The type exists only so `SpellingRuleSet`'s field list matches the listing; it carries no state and nothing constructs one with content. This is the same "do not invent" discipline the contract applies to the six pitch spaces, applied one level down to a type rather than a data row. **No `Codec` impl exists for anything in `pitch_space.rs`, and none was added to `Score` or `ScoreTuningContext`** (Ruling C, `spec/PLAN_PUSH4B_TUNING.md`). These types are referenced only by id from canonical state; they stay in memory so a later tranche remains free to discover they are wrong. **The P13-S2 interim guard is retired, not widened.** `Pitch::transposed` and `Pitch::twelve_tet_semitone` no longer compare `scale_position.space.as_str()` against the literal `"cmn-12"` anywhere; both call a new private helper, `diatonic_over_chromatic_structure`, that looks the space up in `built_in_position_structure` and proceeds only when it resolves to `DiatonicOverChromatic` — `Chromatic`, `JiLattice`, `Registered`, an unknown identifier, and all six unresolved catalog spaces refuse identically via the existing `TransposeRefusal::PitchSpaceUnavailable`. `Pitch::transposed`'s arithmetic is now genuinely space-relative (`chromatic_positions_per_octave` and `nominal_to_chromatic` come from the resolved structure, not a hardcoded `12`/`CmnNominal::chromatic()`), which is what makes `cmn-24` transpose in quarter-tone steps rather than silently applying semitone arithmetic to a 24-chromatic space. `twelve_tet_semitone` keeps its own, stricter gate (`chromatic_positions_per_octave == 12`) per the contract's instruction not to rename it: the name stays true because the function still only answers for a genuinely twelve-chromatic structure, proven structurally now rather than by identifier. Its six callers across three crates are unchanged. **One downstream test needed a fixture change, not a behavior change.** `epiphany-ops::reduce::tests::unresolved_cmn_space_maps_to_canonical_pitch_space_mismatch` used `"cmn-24"` as a stand-in for "a `Cmn` position in a space the core cannot resolve." `cmn-24` is now resolved — that is this tranche's entire point — so the fixture no longer witnesses that case; it now runs deep enough to hit a second, pre-existing, unrelated refusal (`resolve_transposed_spellings`'s `twelve_tet_semitone()?` gate, `TranspositionOutOfRange`) instead of the one the test names. Retargeted to `"edo-31"` (resolved, but to `Chromatic`, not `DiatonicOverChromatic` — still exactly the case the test is about), with a comment recording why `cmn-24` stopped serving as the witness. No assertion weakened, no wire byte or discriminant touched. **Requirement counts did not move.** No new requirement was added or cited that did not already exist; `crates/epiphany-testkit/tests/requirement_labels.rs`'s 212/282/282 are unchanged. ## Push 4b tranche 2: the tuning resolver lands, in memory, resolving a pitch to a frequency `spec/CONTRACT_PUSH4B_RESOLVER.md`. Same vertical-slice discipline as tranche 1: `TuningSystem`, `TuningResolution`, `TuningOverride`, `TuningScope`, a partial built-in catalog, and the five-scope resolver land together, proven with real frequencies (`tet-12` C5 ≈ 523.2511 Hz off A4 = 440; a JI major third measurably distinct from the equal-tempered one), not `is_ok()`. **New module `src/tuning.rs`.** `TuningResolution` is deliberately a **two**-of-six-variant enum: `EqualTemperament` and `PerPositionRatios` (plus `PositionRatio`, which the specification's own listing never spells out the fields of — defined here as a chromatic position plus a `crate::pitch_space::JiRatio`, reusing rather than inventing a second rational type). The other four variants (`Function`, `Overlay`, `Imported`, `Adaptive`) are not transcribed: nothing in this tranche's catalog constructs them, and their payload subtrees are exactly the unconsumed surface tranche 1 already declined twice over. **The built-in catalog resolves nine of twenty, honestly.** The six `tet-*` equal temperaments (`tet-12` pairs with `cmn-12`, the default pairing; `tet-19/22/31/53/72` pair with the matching `edo-*` pitch spaces — forced by the built-in catalog's cardinalities, not chosen) and the three `ji-static-5limit-{C,G,D}` just-intonation systems. The latter's twelve ratios are *computed* — `ji_static_5limit_ratios`, exact integer arithmetic over the lattice block $\{3^a5^b \mid a\in[-1,2], b\in[-1,1]\}$, octave-reduced by doubling/halving (never a float comparison) and sorted by cross- multiplication (never a float division) — not pasted from `core_spec.tex:4034-4046`'s table. A dedicated test (`ji_static_5limit_lattice_matches_the_published_construction`) spot-checks the code's output against that table at all three anchors, proving the two state the same construction rather than merely agreeing to look similar. The remaining eleven (the ten historical temperaments and `ji-adaptive-5limit`) are real catalog entries whose resolution this tranche **defers**, distinguished from a genuinely unknown identifier by `TuningCatalogEntry::{Resolved, Deferred}` — so `resolve_pitch_frequency` can report "not yet supported, here's why" for a known-but-deferred system and "not a built-in tuning system" for an unknown one, never the same error for both, and never a guessed frequency for either. Tranche 2b re-derives the ten temperaments from their ratified constructions (`core_spec.tex` §"Temperament Constructions"); `ji-adaptive-5limit` waits on `HarmonicContext`, out of scope per the spec itself. **Anchoring, done as a ratio-of-ratios so the arbitrary anchor cancels.** `frequency_for_position` places both the target position and the reference position on one absolute integer coordinate (generalizing `Pitch::twelve_tet_semitone`'s idea from a fixed 12 to any tuning's own divisions, and from `Cmn` positions to `Integer` ones for the EDO spaces), computes each one's frequency ratio relative to coordinate 0 under the tuning's resolution, and takes `reference.frequency_hz() * ratio(position) / ratio(reference.position)`. Which position a construction calls "1/1" cancels out of that quotient — proven the hard way: the first draft of the JI-major- third test anchored the comparison at A4 = 440 Hz (the score's own default reference) and asserted the just third would be flatter than tet-12's; it failed, because JI-static-5limit-C retunes A relative to C differently than tet-12 does, so comparing frequencies referenced through A silently mixes "how A retunes" into "how E retunes." The fix anchors the reference at C4 itself for both systems, isolating the C-to-E interval the test is actually about — the resolver's arithmetic was correct throughout; the first test design wasn't. **The five-scope walk resolves each of pitch space, tuning system, and reference independently** (`req:tuning:tuning-resolution-order`), voice then staff then region then the score default, with an explicit `TuningReference::Explicit` short-circuiting the tuning-system component at step 1 (pitch space and reference have no step-1 concept of their own — an `AcousticPitch` carries no field for either) and `AcousticRealization::AbsoluteHz` short-circuiting the whole frequency, bypassing the walk and the catalog entirely. "Each region enclosing the pitch, innermost to outermost" turns out to be exactly **one** region in this data model: a `Voice` is owned by exactly one `StaffInstance`, owned by exactly one `Region` (containment, not a derived time-range query), so there is no nested-region multiplicity to walk. `TuningScope::Range` is defined (Chapter 4's fourth scope variant) but the walk never matches it — `req:tuning:tuning-resolution-order` enumerates exactly five steps and does not mention it, so inventing a sixth would be exactly the kind of unratified addition this project's process exists to catch; documented as a scope note, not silently dropped. **The compatibility check accepts only exact `pitch_space` equality** (`req:tuning:tuning-system-compatibility`): no compatibility-mapping registry exists, matching how tranche 1 left the pitch-space registry unbuilt. A mismatch (e.g. `tet-19`'s declared `edo-19` against an unchanged `cmn-12` default) is rejected, not silently resolved — proof-of-life item 4. **`ScoreTuningContext` gains `overrides: Vec`, in memory only.** This is the one wire-adjacent change, and it isn't a wire change: the type's canonical encoding stays exactly the three fields it always had (`default_pitch_space`, `default_tuning_system`, `reference`), because adding a fourth field to a `struct_codec!`-generated type breaks the macro outright — its generated `dec` ends in a struct literal naming every field it was given, so a fourth field cannot compile against it. The `struct_codec!` line is replaced with a hand-written `impl Codec` (`codec.rs`) and `impl TextValue` (`textvalue_graph.rs`) that encode/project exactly the three wire fields, in their original order, and construct `overrides: Vec::new()` unconditionally on decode/parse. Two round-trip tests prove the field never reaches either canonical surface: `codec::tests::score_tuning_context_overrides_do_not_reach_the_wire` (a context with a non-empty `overrides` encodes to byte-identical output as one with empty `overrides`, and decoding either reconstructs `overrides` as empty) and `textvalue_graph::tests::score_tuning_context_round_trips_and_overrides_do_not_project` (the same, for the text projection). Field order in the Rust struct is free (the manual codec fixes the wire order independently); the specification's eventual major-3 field order puts `overrides` last, after `accidental_extensions` and `smufl` — that pairing is the wire tranche's problem, not this one's. **No `Codec` impl exists for anything new in `tuning.rs`.** These types are referenced only by id and by the one in-memory `ScoreTuningContext` field; they stay free to change once the wire tranche (schema major 3) discovers something about them. **Requirement counts did not move again.** No `.tex` file was touched, no requirement added; the 212/282/282 counts stay put. ## Push 4b tranche 2b: the ten historical temperaments resolve, built from their constructions `spec/CONTRACT_PUSH4B_TEMPERAMENTS.md`. The ten `TuningCatalogEntry::Deferred` entries tranche 2 left behind now resolve, via the specification's own third `TuningResolution` variant, `Function`. Same in-memory discipline as tranches 1 and 2: no `Codec`, no wire movement, canonical bytes untouched — only `tuning.rs`, `pitch.rs` (one new `catalog_id!`), and `lib.rs` (re-exports) changed. **`TuningResolution::Function { function: TuningFunctionId, parameters: TuningParameters }` lands, plus the `TuningFunctionId` catalog newtype** (`pitch.rs`, beside `TuningSystemId`). The ten temperaments are reserved built-in ids spelled identically to their `TuningSystemId` (`"pythagorean"`, `"werckmeister-iii"`, …); an id with no reserved built-in has no registry to fall back on, so `coordinate_ratio`'s `Function` arm returns `None` for it — the extension point fails closed, never a guessed frequency. `frequency_for_position`'s `divisions` match gains a `Function` arm too: since the variant carries no division count of its own, divisions comes from the *pitch space*'s chromatic cardinality instead (a new private `chromatic_cardinality(&PositionStructure) -> Option`, 12 for `cmn-12`), never from the resolution. **`TuningParameters` is a deliberate zero-field marker, exactly like `SpellingParameters`.** No built-in parameterizes a `Function` resolution — each of the ten temperaments is fixed entirely by its `TuningFunctionId` alone — and `core_spec.tex` never gives this type's shape (it calls the sibling `AdaptiveTuningParameters` "likewise undefined" for the identical reason, `:4083`). The type carries no state and exists only so `TuningResolution::Function`'s field list matches the specification's own listing. **The construction, not the cents table, is what's built.** Each temperament is represented as a `Construction = [FifthTempering; 12]`: one `FifthTempering` tag per fifth of the fixed circle-of-fifths chain `C–G–D–A–E–B–F♯–C♯–G♯–E♭–B♭–F–(C)` (`Pure`, `NarrowPythagorean(fraction)`, `WidePythagorean(fraction)`, `NarrowSyntonic(fraction)`, `NarrowSchisma`, or — for the four non-circulating temperaments' one closing wolf — `Residual`, whose cents are computed as whatever value brings the other eleven arcs' sum to exactly seven octaves, never given a fraction of its own). One shared `walk_temperament` function walks any construction forward from C, accumulating raw (unreduced) cents, then reduces each of the twelve chain notes' cumulative cents mod 1200 into its `cmn-12` chromatic degree's ratio. The same walk produces the wolf (for the four non-circulating constructions) and the full twelve-note closure (for the six circulating ones) without separate code paths — reducing mod 1200 is what lets the wolf simply fall out where the chain doesn't close, exactly as `core_spec.tex`'s own framing puts it ("any assignment of twelve distinct pitch classes must sum to seven octaves by construction"). The four comma sizes (`pure_fifth_cents`, `pythagorean_comma_cents`, `syntonic_comma_cents`, `schisma_cents`) are each `1200·log2(exact ratio)` in `f64` — never a hardcoded rounded cents constant — and the schisma is computed independently from `32805/32768` rather than derived as `pythagorean − syntonic`, so the closure tests prove that identity rather than assume it. **The closure invariant, recomputed in code, is what the tests assert.** For the six circulating temperaments (`werckmeister-iii`/`-iv`, `vallotti`, `kirnberger-ii`/`-iii`, `young-ii`), a test recomputes `12·pure_fifth_cents − raw_closure_cents` (the sum of the twelve fifths' deviations from pure) and asserts it equals `pythagorean_comma_cents()` (≈23.4600 c) within `1e-9`, plus a per-fifth bound (`<15 c` deviation from pure) proving none of the twelve is secretly a wolf. Computed values: werckmeister-iii, -iv, vallotti, kirnberger-ii, kirnberger-iii, and young-ii each summed to `23.460010…` c against the ratified `23.4600` c. For the four non-circulating ones (`pythagorean`, the three `meantone-*`), the residual wolf (chain arc 8, `G♯–E♭`) is asserted against the spec's ratified value: pythagorean 678.495 c, computed 678.495 c; meantone-1/4 737.637 c, computed 737.637 c; meantone-1/5 725.809 c, computed 725.809 c; meantone-1/6 717.923 c, computed 717.923 c — all within `0.001` c. **The Kirnberger schisma-fifth trap and the Pythagorean-vs-syntonic comma trap were both reproduced as mutations, and both caught.** Dropping `kirnberger-ii`'s closing schisma fifth (changing its `F♯–C♯` arc from `NarrowSchisma` to `Pure`) landed the closure at 21.506 c — one schisma (1.954 c) short of 23.460 c — and only the closure test died. Changing `werckmeister-iii`'s comma from Pythagorean to syntonic (`NarrowPythagorean` → `NarrowSyntonic` at the same fraction) landed the closure at 21.506 c (`4 × ¼ syntonic`) instead of 23.460 c, exactly the defect the contract predicted, and again only the closure test died. Both were reversed by undoing the exact substitution, never `git checkout`. **Discriminator and resolver-level tests were each mutation-verified too** (construction- or dispatch-level mutations, run to red, then reversed): swapping the `E`/`B` chromatic-degree slots in the shared `CHAIN_CHROMATIC_DEGREE` table killed both `pythagorean`'s E/F♯ test and the `meantone-1/4-comma` just-third test; doubling `kirnberger-iii`'s comma fraction to match `kirnberger-ii`'s killed the D-value discriminator (and, incidentally, the closure test, since the doubled fraction no longer sums to one Pythagorean comma either); moving `pythagorean`'s residual arc from index 8 to index 7 killed only the non-circulating wolf test; making `temperament_ratios`'s wildcard arm return `pythagorean`'s construction instead of `None` killed only the fail-closed test; typo-ing the `"vallotti"` match arm killed only the "all ten resolve" test; and making the resolver's `Function` arm ignore `function` and fall back to 12-TET killed both the `werckmeister-iii` C♯-distinctness test and the fail-closed test (the latter because an unknown id now also produced a ratio instead of `None`). Every mutation was reversed by undoing its exact substitution. **Zero golden or digest movement**, confirmed by the full gate: `cargo fmt --all --check`, `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets` (0 warnings), `cargo test --workspace` (0 failed across every crate), `RUSTDOCFLAGS="-D warnings" cargo doc --workspace --no-deps` (0 warnings, after two intra-doc links to the private `temperament_ratios`/`coordinate_ratio` were de-linked to plain code spans), `conformance_suite` (8/8), and `requirement_labels` (6 passed, counts unchanged at 212/282/282) all pass. No `.tex` file was touched and no requirement was added. ## Push 4b tranche 3a: the accidental/glyph/engraving vocabulary lands, in memory, with two real consumers `spec/CONTRACT_PUSH4B_ACCIDENTALS.md`. Same reversible-first discipline as tranches 1/2/2b: the accidental-registry, glyph-reference, and engraving type surface from Chapter 4 §"Accidental Registries" / "Glyph References and SMuFL" lands in `epiphany-core`, in memory, with two real consumers, and **no `Codec`, no wire movement** — canonical bytes stay byte-identical. This splits tranche 3's full `ScoreTuningContext` completion in two: 3a builds and exercises the shapes while they are still free to change; 3b (a later tranche) puts `accidental_extensions`, `smufl`, and `overrides` on the wire together, opening schema major 3 — an irreversible freeze, so it is not done until the shapes have had a consumer. **New module `src/accidental.rs`.** Transcribed field-for-field from `core_spec.tex:3054`-`3277`, in spec order, with three ratified corrections (P13-S10/S11/S12, filed and ratified before dispatch): * **S10** — `PitchSpaceModification::Cents(CanonicalF64)`, not `Cents(f64)`: a raw `f64` is unencodable in canonical state (`serialize.rs` decodes floats only through `CanonicalF64::from_le_bytes`; there is no `Codec for f64`). Locked by `accidental::tests::cents_round_trips_a_finite_value_and_guards_non_finite`, which round-trips a finite cents value and shows `CanonicalF64::new` rejects NaN/±infinity outright, so a `Cents` payload can never be non-finite. * **S11** — `AnchorPoint { x: SpaceUnit, y: SpaceUnit }`, defined core-native. The specification references it (`:3166`, `AccidentalEngraving::anchor`) but never defines it, and `epiphany-core` cannot depend on `epiphany-layout-ir`. Doc comment pins the frame ratified alongside S11: canonical space units, y-up, relative to the glyph's coordinate origin (needed because `EngravingBoundingBox` is itself "relative to the glyph's anchor point", `:3160`, so the anchor needs an unambiguous origin of its own). * **S12** — `SmuflVersion { major: u16, minor_centi: u16 }`, the minor stored fraction-normalized to hundredths (1.4 -> 40, 1.3 -> 30, 1.12 -> 12), built only through the checked `SmuflVersion::from_decimal(major, minor_digits)` constructor so a caller cannot pass a literal minor digit by mistake. Locked by `accidental::tests::smufl_version_orders_the_real_release_sequence`, which asserts SMuFL's actual release order (1.12 < 1.18 < 1.20 < 1.3 < 1.4) — a test that would pass under literal-minor storage (where 1.3 and 1.4 sort before 1.12) would not lock S12 at all; see the mutation below, which reproduces exactly that failure and confirms this test catches it. **Not** `epiphany_layout_ir::SmuflVersion` (`glyph.rs:29`, literal-minor, load-bearing for `GlyphCatalogIdentity`) — that type is untouched; the two are a deliberate, bounded homonym (`epiphany-core` cannot depend on `epiphany-layout-ir` in any case) until a later tranche unifies them and moves `GlyphCatalogIdentity`, with golden regen. Also new: `CustomGlyphId`, `ModificationRegistryId`, `AccidentalGroupId` (`catalog_id!` entries in `pitch.rs`, beside `AccidentalRegistryId`/ `AccidentalId`, which already existed). **No `Codec` impl exists for anything in `accidental.rs`.** **Two real consumers, so this does not become the `NOTEHEAD_ANCHORS` trap.** *(a) `resolve_accidental(base_registry, extensions, id)`* — resolution precedence per `core_spec.tex:3224` ("Extensions are stored on the score and override or augment the base registry during resolution"): an `overrides` entry wins over an `additions` entry wins over the base registry, checked by `accidental::tests::resolution_precedence_overrides_beats_additions_beats_base` across all three tiers plus the not-found case. `base_registry` is supplied by the caller rather than looked up from an in-core catalog: `epiphany-core` has no built-in catalog of accidental-registry *bodies* this tranche (the same deferred-data-catalog discipline tranche 1 applied to the six underdetermined pitch spaces) — inventing one would itself be the `NOTEHEAD_ANCHORS` failure this consumer exists to avoid. *(b) `accidental_modification_compatible_with_space(modification, space)`*, wired into `check_invariants` as `GraphIndex::check_accidental_modification_compatibility` — the `req:tuning:accidental-modification-compatibility` invariant (`core_spec.tex:3120`). `space` resolves structurally against `built_in_position_structure` (Push 4b tranche 1), the same catalog `Pitch::transposed` uses. The requirement's two named rules (`CmnChromatic` only in `DiatonicOverChromatic`-shaped spaces; `EdoSteps` only in `Chromatic` or `Registered`) are matched directly against `PositionStructure`; the contract's instruction to "extend the same shape" gives `JiRatio` the identical `JiLattice`-or-`Registered` rule. `Cents` and `Registered` modifications have no requirement-stated constraint, so they are accepted whenever the space itself resolves — inventing a constraint the requirement does not state would be the same failure as inventing a JI generator ratio. An unresolvable space (outside the built-in catalog, or one of the six catalog-named-but-underdetermined ones) fails closed for *every* modification kind, `Cents`/`Registered` included, mirroring tranche 1's `Pitch::transposed` discipline. `check_invariants` folds the result into the existing `GraphInvariant::CrossCuttingRefsResolve` tag rather than inventing a 20th spec-enumerated invariant — the same choice already made for the tempo-map and aleatoric-model checks, since this is a Chapter 4 requirement, not one of the 19 spec-enumerated Chapter 5 graph invariants. The check determines "every pitch space that references \[a\] registry" (the requirement's phrase) as every pitch space the score's tuning context concretely names: `default_pitch_space`, plus any per-scope override's `pitch_space` (`crate::tuning::TuningOverride`). `epiphany-core` has no built-in catalog linking an `AccidentalRegistryId` to the pitch space(s) that declare it their `accidental_registry` — tranche 1 built only the id -> `PositionStructure` map, not a populated `PitchSpace` catalog — so this is the referencing relation the score can actually attest to, stated honestly rather than invented. Because every existing generator leaves `accidental_extensions` empty (this tranche adds no test data to any generator), the new check is silent across the entire pre-existing test/property-test corpus — proven directly by `invariants::accidental_compatibility_tests::a_score_with_no_accidental_extensions_never_fires_this_check`. **Glyph and engraving metadata are carried, not consumed, in core.** `GlyphReference`, `AccidentalEngraving` (and its `EngravingBoundingBox`/ `AnchorPoint`), and `AccidentalCombination` are read by both consumers only incidentally — resolution returns the whole `AccidentalDefinition`, and the compatibility check reads past `engraving`/`glyph`/`combination` straight to `modification`. Their deep consumer is the engraver, out of `epiphany-core`, a later tranche; no in-core consumer was fabricated for them to manufacture coverage. **`GlyphReference` is Chapter 4's own, deliberately not unified with `epiphany_layout_ir::GlyphReference`** (`glyph.rs:50`, a glyph *name*, `Cow<'static, str>`, a rendering concern): same name, unrelated types (Ruling D's "correction"). `epiphany-core` cannot depend on `epiphany-layout-ir` in any case, so within this crate there is no ambiguity. **`ScoreTuningContext` gains its second and third in-memory-only fields.** `accidental_extensions: Vec` and `smufl: SmuflVersionRequirement` join `overrides` (Push 4b tranche 2) as Rust fields with **no wire presence**: the hand-written `Codec::enc` is byte-for-byte unchanged (still exactly `default_pitch_space`, `default_tuning_system`, `reference`, in that order); only `dec` grows two more defaults (`accidental_extensions: Vec::new()`, `smufl: SmuflVersionRequirement::default()`), alongside the pre-existing `overrides: Vec::new()`. `SmuflVersionRequirement::default()` is `{ minimum: SmuflVersion(1.4), authored_against: SmuflVersion(1.4) }` — the SMuFL version this repository already targets (`epiphany_layout_ir::glyph::GlyphCatalogIdentity`'s default), so the default aligns with what the layout-ir unification will target. The matching `impl TextValue` (`textvalue_graph.rs`) gets the identical treatment: `project` still emits exactly three fields, `parse` defaults all three in-memory fields. Proved with a new test extending tranche 2's `score_tuning_context_overrides_do_not_reach_the_wire` pattern to all three fields at once: `codec::tests::score_tuning_context_accidental_extensions_smufl_and_overrides_do_not_reach_the_wire` (binary) and `textvalue_graph::tests::score_tuning_context_accidental_extensions_smufl_and_overrides_do_not_project` (text) — a fixture with non-empty `accidental_extensions`, a non-default `smufl`, and a non-empty `overrides` encodes/projects byte-for-byte identically to the all-default fixture, and decoding/parsing either reconstructs all three as empty/default. The original tranche-2 tests are untouched, preserving their historical narrative. **Every new test was mutation-verified** (substitution made, test run to red, then reversed by undoing the exact substitution — never `git checkout`): * **S12**: `SmuflVersion::from_decimal` mutated to store the minor literally (`minor_centi = value` unconditionally, dropping the ×10 for one-digit input). Killed both `smufl_version_orders_the_real_release_sequence` (the release-order lock: `(1, 20)` no longer sorted before `(1, 3)`) and `smufl_version_from_decimal_normalizes_one_and_two_digit_minors`. * **S10**: `PitchSpaceModification::Cents` reverted to `Cents(f64)`. This is a type-level correction, so the "test" is the type system itself: nine call sites across `accidental.rs`'s own tests and the codec byte-identity fixture failed to *compile* against the reverted shape (`Option::map(Cents)` no longer type-checks; direct `Cents(CanonicalF64::new(...).unwrap())` construction no longer type-checks) — the strongest possible test failure. * **Resolution precedence**: `resolve_accidental` mutated to check `base_registry` first, `additions` second, `overrides` last (precedence reversed). Killed `resolution_precedence_overrides_beats_additions_beats_base` (resolved to the base-registry entry, `-1`, instead of the overrides entry, `-3`). * **Compatibility check**: `accidental_modification_compatible_with_space` mutated to `true` unconditionally. Killed five tests at once: `cmn_chromatic_is_compatible_only_with_diatonic_over_chromatic`, `edo_steps_is_compatible_with_chromatic_and_registered_not_diatonic`, `ji_ratio_is_compatible_only_with_ji_lattice`, `every_modification_kind_fails_closed_on_an_unresolvable_space` (all four in `accidental.rs`), and — proving the graph-level wiring is load-bearing, not just the pure predicate — `invariants::accidental_compatibility_tests::cmn_chromatic_accidental_in_edo_31_fires`. * **Wire invisibility**: `ScoreTuningContext::enc` mutated to push `accidental_extensions.len() as u8`, and separately `impl TextValue::project` mutated to append the same length as a projected field. The binary mutation killed the new byte-identity test (last byte `1` vs `0`); the text mutation killed *both* text-projection tests, including the pre-existing tranche-2 one (`parse` still expects exactly 3 fields, so even `ScoreTuningContext::default()`'s own round-trip failed to parse a 4-field list) — confirming the frozen field arity is what both tests actually enforce. **Zero golden or digest movement**, confirmed by the full gate after every mutation was reverted: `cargo fmt --all --check`, `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets` (0 warnings), `cargo test --workspace` (0 failed across every crate), `RUSTDOCFLAGS="-D warnings" cargo doc --workspace --no-deps` (0 warnings, after one intra-doc link — `` [`:3160`] `` — was de-linked to a plain parenthetical citation), `conformance_suite` (8/8), and `requirement_labels` (6 passed, counts unchanged at 212/282/282) all pass. No `.tex` file was touched and no requirement was added.
