scripts/check-sigint-deliverable is the single checked-in helper, to the
ABI revision 12 fixed: exit 0 safe with no diagnostic, exit 1 ignored
with the canonical wording, exit 2 error with a distinct one. The inner
probe's `|| exit 24` arms are the load-bearing part --- without them a
FAILED kill also falls through to exit 0 and gets misread as inherited
SIG_IGN, which is the one wrong answer the helper exists to prevent.
R-b: scripts/gate runs it before any stage and stops on a non-zero
status, surfacing the helper's stderr unchanged and adding only that no
stage ran. It does not re-derive the classification or supply its own
wording. Plan/print modes skip it, since they run nothing. No override.
R-d: the target test calls the same helper first and panics with
"precondition failed --- this is NOT a teardown defect" plus the helper's
own stderr, instead of reaching the misleading "child did not exit
within 5s". The Linux-only /proc D1/D2 instrument is removed now that
its evidence is portable, taking the platform dependency with it.
Witnesses:
A1 backgrounded gate stops before stage 1 with the ignored
diagnosis, exit 1.
A2 backgrounded direct test reports the precondition failure, NOT
the 5s deadline.
A3 foreground: both target copies pass in 0.16s and the guard is
silent.
A4 mutations measured, each biting its named row --- removing the
trap bites A3 (fg 0->2), treating inner 0 as safe bites A1/A2 (bg
1->0), collapsing error into ignored bites A6 (forced 2->1).
A5 the full default gate passes all 8 stages foreground, and
--print-plan is byte-identical to HEAD's: no stage added,
removed, reordered or made conditional.
A6 forced probe failure yields exit 2 and the error wording, not
the ignored wording.
A7 exercised on Linux x86_64 only, all three outcomes; no non-Linux
unix was reachable, so A7 stays OPEN there and the portability
argument is labelled contract-level, not measured.
Also records that this session's tool-level background mode leaves
SIGINT deliverable while setsid nohup ... & does not --- so the construct
that caused this lane was never necessary for long runs.

Revision 12 is approved at 1fc0df6 after closing the controlled-arm
provenance, total-helper-ABI, and standing-ledger blockers. Record that
R-b plus R-d implementation may proceed under the replacement A1-A7
contract.
Make the second controlled-arm record portable without changing what it
claims: identify head 77b623c, transcribe the actual foreground and
background harness invocations, include the exact evidence-recording
harness, label the captured exit as cargo's, and carry both full binary
digests in both arm columns.
Turn the signal probe into an implementable shared ABI. The checked-in
helper owns classification and diagnostics: 0 is safe, 1 is inherited
ignore, and 2 is probe error. Preserve kill failure in the inner shell,
surface the helper's stderr unchanged in both consumers, and witness the
error outcome in both paths. Correct the mutation mapping so removing
the trap bites foreground success rather than the ignored-signal rows.
Synchronize the active-work ledger with the rerun head, total helper
contract, A1-A7 witnesses, and qualified portability claim.
Three findings, all upheld.
1. The arm provenance was malformed and over-claimed. The "fully
expanded" background command still contained <the fg command above>
and <log> placeholders; both table rows were one cell short of the
header, putting log prefixes under "binary hashes" and leaving the
digest column empty; and the full binary hashes had been read later
from reused paths, which cannot retroactively prove what each arm
executed --- the same provenance rule this document states in §7,
applied against my own record.
Rather than weaken the claim, the arms were re-run at head 77b623c
with FULL SHA-256 captured per run, immediately after each run,
before anything could rebuild them. Both arms: identical
0890b78c...4124c and ef6ff1c1...c696, dirty=0, fg exit=0 ok=2, bg
exit=101 failed=2 SigIgn=0x1007. Byte identity is now carried by the
capture rather than by inference. Commands are written out with no
placeholders, and the table cells line up.
2. The ledger still transported superseded operative instructions: a
"remedy not selected" heading, D0b still owed under A3, journey step
12(a) still assigned, and the old three-consecutive-run A2 contract.
All four now match revision 12's §8/§9 --- remedy selected, D0b
satisfied and not owed, journey steps NONE with gate trustworthiness
named instead, and A1-A7 replacing the three-run contract, which was
written for a flakiness that is now explained.
3. The helper contract was not total. The raw probe reaches exit 0 both
when the kill was a no-op AND when the kill itself failed, so a
broken probe would report "inherited SIG_IGN" and fail the gate for
the wrong reason. The helper now owns the classification and returns
one of safe / ignored / error; consumers consume the verdict and
never re-derive it. `error` is not folded into `ignored` --- it fails
the gate with a different diagnosis, because "your environment
ignores SIGINT" and "the guard could not run" are different
problems. A6 witnesses the distinct error outcome, A7 requires a
non-Linux unix exercise or an explicit statement of what was tried,
and A4 gains a mutation for collapsing error into ignored. R-b's
stale "needs an explicit override" is reconciled with §7c's no
-override decision.

Third occurrence of the same process failure, and the one I had already
written the lesson for twice. ab43132's message said the ledger no
longer claims implementation-absent or mechanism-unknown. The ledger
script died on a stale anchor, and because I separated the steps with a
newline instead of chaining them, `git commit` ran regardless. Gating
one step is not enough when the next step is not gated too.
The ledger now records what the framing does: mechanism KNOWN, remedy
SELECTED as R-b + R-d via the portable probe, A3/D0b satisfied by the
controlled explanation so D0b is not owed, revision 12 awaiting
approval, D1/D2 done rather than "the next step", and the diagnostic
instrument named as the only implementation so far.

Two record defects plus the remedy decision.
1. Withdrawn claims were still asserted elsewhere. The header and §4c's
consequences still said bet 1 FALSIFIED, A5 STRUCK, and that a real
pmacs --gpu "behaves correctly" --- none of which D4 established,
since D4 never ran. Both now say withdrawn/retired BY SCOPE, with
the explicit note that nothing here shows a real session is correct,
only that no observed evidence of a user-facing defect survives.
§4c's pre_exec-implies-assertion conclusion is replaced by a pointer
to §7b/§7c. A3/D0b are marked SATISFIED by the controlled
explanation --- D0b is not owed and will not run. §9's "Beyond step
12(a)" is gone, since no journey step is touched. The ledger no
longer says implementation-absent, mechanism-unknown, or D1/D2-next.
2. Provenance made portable. Both arm commands are fully expanded
rather than delegating to a machine-local arms.sh. Full SHA-256 of
the two executed binaries are recorded; the 16-character log values
are relabelled PREFIXES and carry no claim. The standalone
foreground/background SigIgn table is labelled UNRECORDED
CORROBORATION --- read ad hoc, no head, no log, no digest --- and the
portable probe supersedes it as the recorded check.
Remedy selected, §7c: R-b + R-d through one checked-in helper wrapping
a behavioural probe --- sh -c 'trap "exit 23" 2; kill -INT $$; exit 0' ---
which exits 23 when SIGINT is deliverable and 0 when inherited as
ignored. Verified here in both contexts. POSIX shell only, so it answers
§7b's portability criterion: no /proc, so not Linux-only, and no
sigaction, so no unsafe. scripts/gate fails immediately with the
explicit diagnosis; the target test reports the same precondition
failure if run directly; no override, because a gate under ignored
SIGINT cannot produce valid evidence. R-c rejected. The Linux-only
D1/D2 instrumentation is removed once its evidence is portable.
A1-A5 are replaced for the new work --- guard bite, direct-test
diagnosis, foreground success unaffected, mutation, and an otherwise
unchanged gate --- with the old teardown criteria kept in §8b, marked
non-binding, so the change of target is visible rather than silent.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_016bqGA6s9tTUFzYpbeW3tai
Four findings on revision 11, all upheld.
1. The operative contract still said the opposite of §4c. Bet 1 read as
open; §7 said the mechanism was unknown with D3/D4 pending; §8 kept
the old criteria and a conditional A5; §9 claimed a journey-12(a)
product repair; the ledger and the revision-10 paragraph still said
D1/D2 had not started. Each is now rewritten as executed, withdrawn,
discharged or superseded --- §9 in particular now records journey
steps touched: NONE, for the stated reason that no product behaviour
changes, with gate trustworthiness named as what the lane does
affect.
2. The causal evidence is now portable and cleanly reproduced. The
first capture came from d12.log, which finished five minutes BEFORE
afe3631 committed the diagnostic code and ran in the reused d0a-B
target --- inadmissible provenance, now marked as the first sighting
only. Replaced by controlled arms on committed head 38f2af4,
dirty=0, in this worktree's own target, with BYTE-IDENTICAL binary
hashes across arms (0890b78cca22ac1e, ef6ff1c15e11062a): foreground
exit=0 ok=2, background exit=101 failed=2 SigIgn=0x1007. The outer
invocation is recorded as a first-class column, since it is the
causal variable and every earlier "exact command" omitted it. The
historical foreground/background mapping is marked RECONSTRUCTED
from the transcript, not captured --- no pre-existing row carries an
outer-invocation field, which is precisely why the matrix stayed
confounded for nine revisions.
3. D4 was never executed, so bet 1 is WITHDRAWN BY SCOPE rather than
falsified, and A5 is RETIRED BY SCOPE rather than struck. Nothing
here shows a real wgpu session behaves correctly; what is shown is
that no observed evidence of a user-facing defect survives. The lane
is now gate/test correctness only.
4. The remedy is not selected. §7b evaluates four candidates --- runner
normalisation, an early gate guard, fixture isolation via pre_exec,
and a test-local precondition assertion --- with portability as a
selection criterion, noting /proc is Linux-only while the suite is
cfg(unix) and sigaction querying is unsafe. Likely R-b + R-d, but
nothing is chosen or implemented here. Revision 11's leap from
"pre_exec is unsafe" to "therefore an assertion" did not follow.
Also renames the meaningless african_close() helper (38f2af4).

afe3631's message described revision 11 in detail. The commit contains
only the test file: the script that was to write the framing died on a
stale anchor --- the approval commit had reworded the header --- and the
shell chain ran `git commit` regardless of its exit status.
This is the SECOND time in this lane, and I recorded the lesson for it
in ea0f3bf: "asserting the edit is not enough if the commit does not
depend on it". I then repeated it. This commit gates `git commit` behind
the editing script's exit status, which is what the earlier note should
have changed and did not.
The framing is now actually at revision 11, AWAITING APPROVAL, carrying
§4c: SIGINT ignored group-wide (SigIgn=0x1007, signal 2), zero SigPnd
and zero per-thread SigBlk so ignored rather than blocked delivery,
shared pgid so nothing escaped the group; the foreground/background
SigIgn comparison; the controlled two-arm experiment; the invalidation
of the subset-vs-full matrix as confounded with my own invocation
method; and the consequences --- bet 1 falsified, A5 struck, the §7/§8
remedy withdrawn in favour of a runner practice and a precondition
assertion.

Revision 10 is approved at 4fba9f6 after aligning A3 with the D0b
contingency. The demonstrated D1/D2 mechanism may account directly for
the subset/full difference; otherwise D0b remains mandatory before the
lane closes.
Record that diagnostic-only D1/D2 are authorised but have not started.
No mechanism or fix is claimed yet.
Revision 10 retires D0b only as a precondition: a demonstrated D1/D2
mechanism may account directly for the subset/full difference, while a
mechanism that does not account for it triggers D0b before closure.
A3 still stated the old unconditional rule that D0 must recreate the
comparison in every case. Make the acceptance criterion match the
diagnostic decision: record the direct explanation when it exists;
otherwise run D0b under captured provenance and explain or explicitly
leave its result unexplained. Either path remains mandatory before the
lane can close.
Three statements survived the narrowing and contradicted it, plus one
ellipsed path in the supposedly exact command block.
- §4b's heading still read "the source hypothesis is eliminated" ---
the exact claim the section body withdraws. It now reads "the
commits do not discriminate today".
- §4a said the endpoints settle whether 7599661..724b785 contains a
regression. They do not: they settle only whether a BISECT IS
CURRENTLY JUSTIFIED. Those are different questions, and D0a's
both-uniform-red answers the first while leaving the second open.
- §4b claimed execution "under the approved contract" while the same
revision acknowledges uptime was never captured. The departure is
now stated up front, before the results rather than after them:
uptime is UNKNOWN for all ten runs, everything else held, no
classification depends on the missing field, and D1/D2's harness
must capture the full list.
- The manifest's <TD> definition still abbreviated the second target
directory as .../d0a-B inside a block labelled exact. Both paths
are written out; no ellipsis remains in it.

Two findings, both upheld.
1. The portable provenance was corrupted and incomplete --- worse than
the machine-local pointer it replaced, because it looked verifiable
and was not. Every log digest had lost its leading hex character
(A#1 recorded as 1c0fe47d55d8f5e... where the value is
e1c0fe47d55d8f5e): the extraction started one byte late in
`logsha=<value>`. The captured /tmp and MemAvailable columns were
dropped, and the command block used ellipsed paths. All ten digests
are corrected, both columns restored, and the command is written out
in full with only two named placeholders.
Separately: `uptime` was NEVER CAPTURED. §7's condition list names
it; the harness kept the load averages from it and discarded the
elapsed time. It is now recorded as UNKNOWN for all ten runs, with
the condition list marked as only partially satisfied rather than
implied met. The classifications stand --- none depends on uptime ---
and D1/D2's harness must capture the whole list.
2. Retiring D0b materially changes the approved diagnostic sequence,
which made D0b mandatory before every other diagnostic. The document
still claimed revision 9, approved at 15c25ec, for a decision that
approval does not contain. Promoted to revision 10 and marked
AWAITING APPROVAL; D0a's execution and result are reported under
revision 9, and D1/D2 do not begin until revision 10 is approved.

18b74d7's message said the framing was corrected on all three findings.
It was not. That script asserted its anchors and died on the second one
--- the endpoint-table rows carry a two-space indent my anchor omitted ---
and since it writes only at the end, NONE of the framing edits landed.
The manifest and ledger edits in that commit are real; the framing ones
were not, and I pushed the claim anyway.
The assertions worked exactly as intended and I ignored their verdict:
the shell chain ran `git commit` regardless of the script's exit status.
Asserting the edit is not enough if the commit does not depend on it.
Now actually applied to the framing:
- §4b: "source hypothesis is eliminated", "the interval cannot contain
the transition" and "not reachable by source" are withdrawn. What
survives is that the two commits DO NOT DISCRIMINATE UNDER CURRENT
CONDITIONS, so no bisect is justified now. A historical regression
could be masked by a later environmental effect or a source/
environment interaction; failing to discriminate is not the same as
not differing. The onset window is deprioritised, not excluded.
- §7 endpoint table: both uniform-same rows now say the commits do
not discriminate under current conditions, rather than that the
interval does not contain the transition.
- §7 D0b: retired as a precondition, with the reason recorded and the
obligation preserved under A3 --- if D1/D2 do not account for the
subset-vs-full difference, D0b runs before this lane closes.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_016bqGA6s9tTUFzYpbeW3tai
Three findings, all upheld.
1. The causal conclusion overreached, in the same way this lane has
overreached before. Uniform-red at both endpoints today proves only
that the two commits DO NOT DISCRIMINATE UNDER CURRENT CONDITIONS.
"Source hypothesis eliminated", "the interval cannot contain the
transition" and "unreachable by source" are withdrawn from the
framing, the manifest and the ledger: a historical regression could
be masked by a later environmental effect, or by a source/environment
interaction under which both commits now fail. Failing to
discriminate is not the same as not differing. "No bisect is
justified under current conditions" is what survives, and the
approved endpoint table's two uniform-same rows are corrected to say
the same thing.
2. D0b was still mandatory, and going to D1/D2 would have skipped an
approved step. It is now RETIRED AS A PRECONDITION with the reason
recorded: it existed to make the reduction matrix trustworthy so the
subset-vs-full comparison could locate the mechanism indirectly,
and D0a has since produced a reliable direct reproduction that D1/D2
measure against. Re-running ten reduction rows to sharpen an
indirect instrument while a direct one is in hand is the wrong order
of work. The obligation is NOT discharged: A3 still binds, so if
D1/D2 fail to account for why every subset passed, D0b runs before
this lane closes.
3. Provenance is now portable. The exact per-run command and a
transcribed ten-row table --- start time, class, red bins, load,
freeMB, daemon count, log digest --- are committed, rather than
delegated to a machine-local results.tsv. Raw logs stay local by
design. The transcription also surfaces something the delegation hid:
the leaked-daemon count climbs 72 -> 108, four per run, monotonically
while every run classifies identically. Recorded, not implicated.

Ten runs under the approved contract: counterbalanced A B B A A B B A A
B, N = 5 per endpoint, clean detached worktrees at 7599661 and 724b785,
isolated target directories, the gate's build-crdt precondition then its
sweep-crdt command, dirty=0 verified per run. Zero voids, zero splits.
A (7599661) uniform-red. B (724b785) uniform-red. By the approved
endpoint table that is the both-endpoints-uniform-same row: the
difference is NOT captured by those two commits.
What it settles:
- No bisect of 7599661..724b785 is justified, and none will run.
7599661 passed inside sweep-crdt on 08-15 and fails 5/5 clean today,
so the interval cannot contain the transition.
- The onset window is demoted --- still a true observation, but not
reachable by source.
- A RELIABLE REPRODUCTION now exists: 10/10 today across two commits
at ~4 minutes per run. This is D0a's most useful product, because
D1/D2 no longer depend on catching a rare event.
What it does not settle: anything about the mechanism. One cheap
negative on "what else changed" --- no package activity in the window per
pacman.log, nearest on 08-18 --- and it is not pursued further, because
with a reproduction in hand direct measurement dominates archaeology.
A's three extra failing binaries are recorded rather than swept up:
a54_real_daemon_real_pty_and_headless_gpu_render..., a v21/v20 row
expected to differ at that older commit, and m6_1_pty_mode_lifecycle.
Two of the three are process/PTY-spawn rows, the same family as the
target. None affect classification, which reads only the two target
copies.

Revision 9 is approved at 15c25ec after the portable manifest and compact
ledger summary preserve the endpoint direction required by D0a.
Record that approval durably before diagnostic implementation begins. The
mechanism remains unknown, no fix is proposed, and panel-mapping-generation
remains held until this teardown lane closes.
The portable manifest collapsed the two clean-split directions even though
the governing endpoint table permits a bisect only when 7599661 is uniform
green and 724b785 is uniform red. Preserve that direction explicitly, and
carry the same distinction in the compact active-work summary.
The inverted split remains a real difference, but it contradicts the onset
reading and therefore requires that reading to be re-examined before any
bisect.
74dbd34 corrected the framing so that "the difference is not captured"
attaches to the uniform-same endpoint verdicts rather than to mixed ---
mixed means intermittency --- but the manifest kept the wrong pairing.
The edit's anchor did not match and the script reported success anyway,
so the commit touched only active-work.md and the framing.
The manifest now defers to §7 D0a for the governing contract and states
the three verdicts with the conclusions that actually belong to them:
clean split permits the bisect, mixed means intermittency under fixed
source, both-uniform-same means the difference is not captured by those
two commits.
Process note, since this is the third silent no-op of its kind in this
lane: an unasserted string replace that misses its anchor is
indistinguishable from one that succeeded. Every edit here now asserts
the anchor before writing and re-asserts the result afterwards.

Two D0a findings on revision 8, both upheld.
1. The classifier was not total. "Clean split" and "mixed" left five
outcomes unprescribed, and two of them are in the historical logs
already: 20260815T182846Z-708693 died compiling pmacs so neither
copy executed, and ...-2839374 / ...-830195 were red on unrelated
rows while both ctrl_c copies passed.
A run is now classified from THE TWO COPIES OF THE TARGET TEST and
nothing else --- green (both ok), red (both FAILED), split (copies
disagree), void (either did not execute). A sweep red only on
unrelated tests is therefore a green run, with the unrelated
failures recorded as evidence about environment stability. A split
STOPS the procedure, since two copies of one source disagreeing
within a run is its own defect. Voids are discarded and re-run on a
budget of 3, after which the environment is too unstable to classify
anything and D0a stops.
Endpoint verdicts are uniform green, uniform red, or mixed, and a
six-row table prescribes every combination: clean split permits the
bisect; an inverted split is a real difference that falsifies which
endpoint was believed good; both-uniform-green and both-uniform-red
each mean the difference is not captured by those commits; mixed at
either endpoint means intermittency under fixed source and forbids a
bisect. The manifest had attached "difference is not captured" to
the mixed case --- that conclusion belongs to the uniform-same rows,
and is moved.
2. Strict A/B/A/B does not make drift "hit both arms equally": B always
follows A and owns the final time point. Runs are now counterbalanced
AB BA AB BA AB, which removes systematic order confounding; the
residual last-slot asymmetry is accepted and stated rather than
claimed away.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_016bqGA6s9tTUFzYpbeW3tai
Four findings on revision 7, all upheld.
1. The old one-run D0 rule survived in three durable places --- the
manifest, this branch's ledger, and the framing's own §4a --- each
still permitting a bisect when the endpoints merely "differ". That
contradicts the N = 5 clean-split contract added in revision 7. All
three now defer to that contract, and §4a's "needs only that the two
clean endpoints differ now" is marked as the superseded rule it is.
2. D0a still overstated its evidence, in three ways now fixed:
- "context-sensitive by construction, appearing only in the full
sweep" is downgraded to what has been OBSERVED so far;
- the historical 7/7 and 13/13 are stated as NOT endpoint-specific
rates --- of seven reds only F6 ran at 724b785, of the greens only
the last at 7599661, both with unknown cleanliness;
- five runs are named a PREDEFINED EVIDENTIARY THRESHOLD chosen so
the outcome cannot be argued after the fact, not something that
mathematically separates intermittency.
And the bisect now specifies its own classifier: every intermediate
commit uses the identical N = 5 protocol, and a mixed classification
ABORTS the bisect rather than being guessed, skipped, or rerun until
it agrees. A bisect with cheaper steps than its endpoints would
inherit the weakness the contract exists to remove.
3. The artifacts column is now exact per run, read from each log:
R1/R2 UNKNOWN (no log preserved), R3 -5d9105cb/-d4dae4f0, R4 and R5
-6b4b8223 only, R6 -91f51d0b/-6b4b8223. R8's citation was half2.log:1;
the executable lines are 438 and 459. The framing's last "not same
binaries" is now "not the same compilations".
4. (Held ledger, 5274d6b.) It named a stale ledger tip and two different
framing revisions on consecutive lines.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_016bqGA6s9tTUFzYpbeW3tai
Five findings on revision 6, all upheld.
1. The ancestry pair supports nothing causal. Revision 6 had already
retreated to "outcome is not determined by commit alone"; that is
withdrawn too, because different commits CAN deterministically
produce different outcomes --- this document's own fix-then-regression
scenario is an example. The two observations differ in commit AND
environment AND time, so they are simply NON-COMPARABLE. The held
ledger's "no source-monotonic cause does that" goes with it.
2. D0a was not a valid decision procedure: one unspecified run per
endpoint cannot establish a regression for a failure that only
appears in the full sweep. Now specified --- N = 5 full sweep-crdt
runs per endpoint, INTERLEAVED A/B/A/B so session drift hits both
arms, identical captured conditions including uptime/free//tmp/
leaked-daemon count, and a bisect permitted ONLY on a clean split.
A mixed result means intermittency under fixed source, and no bisect
is justified at all.
3. "Neither binary contains signal-handling code" is FALSE. The pmacs
binary does: install_signal_handlers (src/daemon.rs:628) registers
SIGINT and SIGTERM; it is simply not on run_gpu's path. A grep of
project sources also cannot exclude a runtime or dependency
installing a disposition. The established fact is narrow --- no
explicit installation on run_gpu's path --- and "whatever disposition
they hold was inherited" is restored to a HYPOTHESIS that D2 must
measure.
4. Artifact wording finished: no "artifact family", "reduction/
workspace artifacts" or "different binaries" remain. Every manifest
row now carries its exact Cargo suffixes read from its log, with a
stated caveat that those logs are machine-local and this manifest is
the portable transcription of them.
5. Held ledger pointed at revision 5; it now points at revision 7.

Three findings on revision 5, all upheld.
1. The ancestry argument overreached. 72da24a failing today while its
descendant 7599661 passed on 08-15 shows exactly one thing: outcome
is not determined by commit alone, since the observations come from
different environments at different times. Revision 5 said a source
cause was "positively discouraged", that the ancestry "says to
expect" equal endpoints, and that the change was environmental.
None follows. It cannot discriminate an environmental change, a
source/environment interaction, or a fix before 7599661 with a
regression before 724b785 --- and an ancestor OUTSIDE the interval
is irrelevant to whether the interval regressed, since a bisect over
7599661..724b785 needs only that the clean endpoints differ now.
D0a is unchanged as an action but is now stated as a decision
procedure with NO predicted outcome: endpoints differ -> bisect that
interval; endpoints agree -> ask what else changed across the window.
2. The byte-identity withdrawal was incomplete in both ledgers. This
branch's said the artifacts "are byte-different" and then withdrew
it two lines later, still said R9 ran "different binaries", and
still promised an "artifact family". The held ledger still said
"byte-different" and still called the window a bisect target with
revision 4's onset conclusion. Both now say "different Cargo
suffixes/compilations" throughout; historical byte identity is
UNKNOWN and is never claimed.
3. Provenance slips: R9's observation-table row listed only -6b4b8223
although it executed both -91f51d0b and -6b4b8223; R10's suffixes
are at log lines 3 and 24, not 3 and 4; R9's are at 3066 and 3087,
not 3066 alone. All corrected against the logs.

Four findings on revision 4, all upheld. The third changes what the
lane should do next.
1. Section summaries still carried revision-3 language while the
manifest carried revision 4's. Framing and ledger now agree: seven
red runs (F1-F7), not five; the observation table is keyed on
compilation set rather than an invented "workspace artifact family";
and it is labelled an observation, not an isolated interaction.
2. The onset count was wrong. Per test copy across the 17 sweep-crdt
logs: 13 with both copies ok, 1 where NEITHER executed because the
stage died compiling pmacs (error[E0308]), and 3 with both failed.
Revision 4's "14 runs, 11 green, 3 red on other tests" mis-stated
both the count and the kind --- one of those runs never reached the
test. The two genuinely red-on-other-tests sweeps did execute
ctrl_c, and it passed.
3. D0a cannot be a source bisect, and the evidence argues against one.
Reflog and commit times put HEAD at 7599661 during the last green
(3c06176 landed 40s after it finished) and at 724b785 during the
first red (5174f73 landed 08:45:41, after that run ended 08:42:01;
the manifest had recorded F6 at 5174f73, which was wrong).
Cleanliness was captured at neither endpoint. And 72da24a is an
ANCESTOR of the passing 7599661 yet fails today --- no
source-monotonic cause produces that. D0a now reproduces the two
endpoints CLEAN, in isolated target directories, and a bisect is
justified only if they differ.
4. Manifest completed: R9 carries full argv rather than a recipe; R7
lists only gpu_invocation-6b4b8223, since R7 does not select
gpu_initial_target; R10 lists both -5d9105cb and -d4dae4f0.
Also withdraws "byte-different" everywhere. The bytes a historical run
executed are not knowable --- target dirs have been overwritten, and a
hash computed today is the current occupant's. Three levels are now kept
apart in the manifest: suffix (known), today's bytes at a path (known),
and the bytes a past run executed (UNKNOWN). Differing suffixes mean
differing Cargo metadata hashes, which is enough to void the comparison
and is all that is claimed.

Four findings on revision 3, all upheld. Answering finding 1 turned up
something that reframes the lane.
THE ONSET. sweep-crdt appears SEVENTEEN times in this target directory's
gate logs. The ctrl_c failure appears in exactly the LAST THREE, and the
test passed --- both copies, "... ok" --- inside the stage before them.
Last green 20260815T185708Z, first red 20260816T063330Z, no reboot
between. The three earlier red sweeps failed on unrelated rows. So
"pre-existing on main" holds (F1 at 72da24a reproduces it) but "always
broken" was never established and is now contradicted. D0 gains a first
part: bisect that window. A test that passed fourteen times in this
stage and then failed three times running has a change behind it, and
that is worth more than further reduction --- which has isolated
nothing.
1. Both ledgers still carried the falsified R9 conclusions. This branch
listed --workspace unification and preceding tests as ruled out
while the section above described an interaction; said "five call
sites" immediately before correcting to six; and labelled the
framing revision 2. The held branch was worse: --workspace refuted,
R9 "same binaries", later packages not implicable, cause cumulative
across 37 binaries. All corrected and pushed (5b9abd8). §11 no
longer asserts the held lane is clean; it records a re-verified
checklist, since asserting that prematurely is what went wrong.
2. Manifest now carries complete argv for R7-R9 and F5 --- abbreviations
are not reconstructable invocations. F5 is disambiguated: the
framing cited gate ...-2144707 while the manifest cited ...-2375685,
two distinct real runs. Enumerating them gives F1-F7: the red count
is SEVEN, not five, each with its own log digest. F5 also carries an
extra failing binary the others do not.
3. "Workspace artifact family" conflated Cargo suffix with byte
identity and is withdrawn as a grouping. Demonstrated: F1 in the
main worktree executed the same suffixes -5d9105cb and -d4dae4f0,
but the bytes there are e0578039/00f06aeb versus the panel
worktree's 1b3cc86c/ede0c07d. Each run now records the suffix its
log shows and byte identity as UNKNOWN, since target dirs have been
overwritten and a hash computed today is not the hash that ran.
4. The interaction table is demoted to a description of what was
observed. Revision 3 disclaimed its inputs and then asserted a
finding from them, which cannot both hold. A3 no longer speaks of an
established "R9 paradox" --- there is none to explain, because the
comparison was never made; it requires D0 to recreate it first.

Five findings on revision 2, all upheld. The first invalidates its
strongest claim.
1. R9 executed gpu_initial_target_acceptance-91f51d0b and
gpu_invocation_acceptance-6b4b8223; the failing sweeps executed
-5d9105cb and -d4dae4f0. Verified byte-different by sha256. Cargo's
target selection changes the fingerprint, so command shape changes
the executable. "Same binaries" is now "same target names and
order". What the evidence supports is an INTERACTION --- prior
targets alone green (R9), workspace artifacts alone green (R10),
both together red (F1-F5) --- so --workspace selection is not
sufficient by itself and NOT ruled out. The claim that other
packages "cannot be implicated" because their targets run after the
failure is withdrawn: later-selected packages can affect the build
graph and fingerprints before their tests ever run.
2. Both ledgers made internally consistent and portable. This branch's
asserted default-disposition death and then withdrew it further
down; the assertion is gone. panel-mapping-generation still carried
"119 binaries green one red", the >=8s arithmetic, the default-action
claim and the >6s selector --- corrected on its own branch and pushed
at 779a6bd.
3. Provenance is now a pushed document, docs/probe-sigint-evidence.md:
exact command, worktree, HEAD, cleanliness, artifact family, result
and log digest per physical run. R1 and R2 have no preserved log,
and revision 2 double-counted one log as both R2 and R6. Cleanliness
is UNKNOWN for every pre-manifest run and is not inferred. R1-R10
ran in the panel-mapping-generation worktree, not at main. D0 now
precedes every other diagnostic: re-run the matrix at main under a
harness capturing provenance AND the artifact hashes executed.
4. "The probe never blocks indefinitely" narrowed to "the event loop
wakes at least every 50ms". The stdin reader blocks in read_to_end
(:1109) and, once ready, the loop leaves only when stdin closes
(:1212), so the process is not bounded.
5. Launcher call sites: six under --features crdt (:509 :534 :544 :574
:725 :1097, inside #[cfg(feature = "crdt")] mod crdt). The other two
--gpu arguments are under #[cfg(not(...))] and compiled out.
Revision 2 said five while citing eight.

Revision 1 rejected on five findings, all upheld.
1. The >6s selector could not have captured the failure. Both
reproducing binaries finish in ~5.19s INCLUDING the 5s timeout
(:3097, :3131), so the failing launcher lives about 5.1s. This also
falsifies my earlier retraction, which had argued the instance "must
live >=8s" --- so the "mechanism located" claim is NOT refuted by
that argument. It stays unproven for a different reason: the suite
spawns launchers from five call sites, so command line alone cannot
attribute one to this test. Key on the PID the test records.
2. Diagnostics rewritten to DISCRIMINATE blocked delivery, inherited
ignore, and an escaped process group: before-and-after snapshots for
test parent / launcher / probe, per-thread SigBlk from
/proc/<pid>/task/*/status, SigPnd/ShdPnd, and PID/PPID/PGID/SID.
Relatedly, "two processes with default disposition" is withdrawn ---
SIG_IGN is inherited across fork and survives exec, so absence of
handler code says nothing about runtime disposition, and inherited
ignore is the leading hypothesis precisely because the source is
silent. Revision 1 contradicted its own hypothesis.
3. Counts corrected: 119 green result summaries and TWO red binaries,
not "119 binaries green, one red". Reductions are now enumerated
R1-R10 and F1-F5 with command, run count and log each, preserved off
the tmpfs --- /tmp is a tmpfs and these were nearly lost mid-lane.
4. Acceptance contract corrected: A2 now requires three consecutive
green runs on the reviewed fixed head of this branch, not on main,
which is unobtainable before approval and merge; journey step 12(a)
"closing is clean" is named, since revision 1 reasoned from grade
movement which §20 warns against; and A5 is explicitly conditional
on D4, with bet 1 restated as a bet --- the witness uses a wrapper
and headless probe, not the real GUI path.
5. Portability closed: this branch now tracks
githubsucks/gpu-probe-sigint-teardown, and panel-mapping-generation
was pushed to 16cf3a2 so its retraction travels.

`ctrl_c_on_launcher_group_does_not_reach_spawned_daemon` fails in gate
stage `sweep-crdt` with "child did not exit within 5s". It is
PRE-EXISTING on main --- 72da24a fails it in a clean worktree with its
own target dir --- so while it reds, no branch can present a green
sixteen-stage gate, main included. §5b is held behind this lane.
Framing revision 1, and it proposes NO FIX, because the mechanism is not
known. What it does instead is fix the shape of the problem so the next
attempt is not another guess:
- Ground truth, cited: neither binary handles signals. `run_gpu`
(src/main.rs:324) blocks in `command.status()` with no handler, and
grepping all of pmacs-gpu/src for signal machinery returns nothing.
The probe polls at 50ms. Two processes with default SIGINT
disposition should both die at once --- this deepens the puzzle
rather than explaining it, and the framing says so.
- Ruled out by measurement, with the method for each: load, tmpfs
(tested by experiment, not argument), leaked daemons, inotify,
--workspace feature unification, and any specific preceding test.
- The reduction paradox stated as the problem's real shape: 5/5 in
the full sweep, 0/N in every reduction, including all 37 preceding
targets plus the suite.
- One retracted claim kept as a warning, because it was mine: the
"mechanism located" report described a healthy teardown. The
sampler behind it caught 394 launchers with a 5s maximum lifetime
while the failing instance must live 8s or more.
The first step is diagnostic only: an instrument keyed on the FAILING
instance --- launchers outliving ~6s --- capturing /proc/<pid>/status
signal masks, since SigIgn survives fork and exec while handlers do not.
Acceptance criteria are written now so the fix cannot quietly become
"make the test pass": a demonstrated mechanism with a mutation-tested
witness, sweep-crdt green three consecutive times, the reduction paradox
explained or recorded as unexplained, and no deadline raised or test
skipped.

Records only. No behaviour change; the focused suite stays 27/27 and
the full gate stays green.
**THE WITHDRAWN CAUSAL CLAIM WAS ASSIGNED TO THE WRONG ROUND.** The
framing credited it to round 4. It was round 3 --- whose subject line
says so plainly, "canonical ancestry, guard witnesses, and a withdrawn
claim". Round 4 was the four discriminators: it added the
canonical-traversal WITNESS (round 3 had fixed the traversal and
verified it by hand, which is the evidence that does not survive the
next edit), moved the guard rows onto the exact boundary, and covered
both managed areas on cleanup.
Rounds 1 and 2 were re-checked against their commits in the same pass,
and round 1 was also wrong: it carried ONE reserve finding, not two.
The nested-reserve ruling is round 2's. Each round is now described
from what its commit actually did.
**AND THE GATE CLAIMED A TMPFS QUOTA THAT WAS NEVER ESTABLISHED.**
`scripts/gate` said a build here "hit tmpfs quota mid-compile". Nothing
measured that, and it contradicts what was measured later: `/tmp` was
at 24G of a 30G tmpfs with 6G free --- NOT out of space. What actually
happened is worth keeping precisely because it is subtler than a quota:
24G of tmpfs is 24G of RAM, free memory fell to ~4G of 61G, process
spawning became unreliable, and eleven rows failed with EMPTY output.
That reads like a code defect. The comment records the measurement and
the symptom now, and drops the quota story.
The independent reason for a disk-backed TMPDIR is unchanged and is
still the measured one: tmpfs fixtures compete for memory.

CI went red on three Test jobs with the helper's own panic. That is the
loud failure working as designed --- and the design was wrong.
`${#x}` counting characters is a property of the SHELL first and the
locale second. `bash` counts characters under a UTF-8 locale; `dash`
counts bytes under EVERY locale, having no multibyte handling at all.
`/bin/sh` is `bash` on Arch and `dash` on the Ubuntu runners, so
probing `/bin/sh` and naming a locale established nothing there: no
pair could qualify, and the row could not run.
The helper now probes `(shell, locale)` pairs and the row invokes the
gate THROUGH the qualifying shell. `/bin/sh` is tried first so the real
interpreter is used wherever it qualifies. This is not a contrivance to
get green: `#!/bin/sh` resolves to `bash` on Arch and on macOS, which
is precisely where a `${#VAR}` guard would miscount, and it is the
configuration the guard exists for.
Renumbered, because `M-G-8` was taken. Round 3 assigned it to the
canonical-traversal mutation and the ledger never recorded it, so the
locale exercise reusing the ID was a collision. Canonical `M-G-8` is
restored to the ledger; the locale legs are `M-G-9a-c`. Nine total.
9a mutant gate, probed pair -> row fails, boundary row still passes.
Re-run with /bin/sh EXCLUDED, covering the dash/CI fallback
path -> still fails.
9b SAME mutant gate, pair forced byte-counting -> row passes.
The defect reproduced rather than argued.
9c no pair qualifies -> panic naming shells and locales tried
Record corrections review asked for:
- framing said three rounds and revisions 6a-6c; history is rounds 1-4
plus this follow-up, and each round is now named for what it fixed
- framing SS2a claimed `${#var}` counts characters under UTF-8 with no
qualifier --- the same error as the helper's. It now states the shell
dependence and why the guard measures bytes explicitly.
- the helper's prose said every candidate comes from `locale -a` while
the code also tried two hardcoded spellings; the doc comment now
describes what the code does

Review found the byte-versus-character witness asserting something
adjacent to its contract. It set `LC_ALL=C.UTF-8` and assumed the
locale took effect. Locale names beyond `C` and `POSIX` are
implementation-defined, so where that one is absent the shell falls
back to byte semantics --- and then the character-counting mutant
counts bytes too, agrees with the fix, and the row passes while
proving nothing. M-G-6 was killable here and unkillable elsewhere,
which is the same as not having it.
The locale is now chosen by BEHAVIOUR. Candidates come from `locale -a`
so the set reflects what is installed, and each is probed through the
same `/bin/sh` the gate runs under, asking `${#x}` on a two-byte
character and requiring `1`. No qualifying locale is a loud panic
naming what was tried, never a skip: a skip would be indistinguishable
from a pass, which is the failure mode this replaces.
M-G-8 proves the fix in three legs, because the hazard lives in the
environment rather than the code:
8a mutant gate, probed locale -> the row fails, and the
exact-boundary row still passes
8b SAME mutant gate, locale forced to `C` -> the row passes.
The defect reproduced rather than argued.
8c no candidate can qualify -> panic naming the candidates
Also marks framing revision 6 approved and records M-G-8 in the ledger.

Every item here is the same failure in a different place: a property
fixed or claimed, and a suite that would stay green without it.
**CANONICAL ANCESTRY WAS UNWITNESSED.** Round 3 fixed word-splitting
and lexical traversal and verified both BY HAND, which is exactly the
evidence that does not survive the next edit --- reverting to the
`for _anc in $(... dirname ...)` loop left all 26 rows green. There is
now a row driving a **space-containing root** (an unquoted expansion
tears it into fragments and the real ancestor is never tested, so the
guard passes on the path it must reject) and a **symlinked root** (a
marker visible only after `pwd -P`, which is what `detect_project`
sees). `M-G-8` restores the old loop and fails it. The traversal is
encoded in framing §2a rather than left as an implementation detail.
**THE SOCKET GUARD MISSED ITS OWN BOUNDARY.** The rows generated ~51-
and ~71-byte paths against a 55-byte cutoff, so they constrained the
guard's EXISTENCE and not its VALUE: raising the budget from 103 to 118
would have kept both green. They now hit **exactly 55 accepted and 56
rejected**, assert the measured byte lengths, and check that the
refusal reports precisely one byte over.
**REJECTION-CLEANUP CHECKED ONE AREA OF TWO.** Only `<root>/tmp` was
inspected, so leaking AMBIENT alone would have passed --- and AMBIENT
is created before the guard can measure anything, which is the whole
reason the trap moved earlier. Both areas are inspected now, the
ambient one under the derived per-worktree target whose hashed name the
test does not compute.
**THE MULTIBYTE ROW DEPENDED ON THE INHERITED LOCALE.** Under
`LC_ALL=C`, `${#var}` already counts bytes, so the character-counting
mutant passed and the row's verdict was a property of the environment
rather than of the code. It sets `LC_ALL=C.UTF-8` explicitly;
`M-G-6` now fails even when the harness itself runs under `LC_ALL=C`.
Stale test prose corrected, including one claim that was the very
inference the ancestor check exists to refute: **placement under a
managed root does not make a path marker-free**. Also, the tmp parent
is SHARED between worktrees and untouched by `--prune` (unlike the
ambient root, which is per-worktree), and the module header named
framing revision 4.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_016bqGA6s9tTUFzYpbeW3tai
**THE ANCESTOR WALK WAS WRONG TWICE OVER.** `for _anc in $(...)`
word-splits on IFS, so a gate root containing a SPACE was torn into
fragments and the real ancestor never tested --- the check passed on
exactly the path it should reject. And `dirname` walks LEXICAL
ancestry while `detect_project` canonicalizes, so a symlinked root hid
a marker the editor plainly sees. The walk resolves with `pwd -P` first
and iterates a quoted `while`; both shapes are verified by hand
(space-containing root refused, symlinked root refused at its real
path).
**THE 103-BYTE GUARD HAD NO WITNESS AT ALL** --- every other row runs
with a short root, so the guard is silent and a broken one looked
identical. Three rows now aim at it deliberately: boundary rejection
and acceptance, a MULTIBYTE root (each `é` is one character and two
bytes, so it is rejected only if the guard measures bytes), and
**rejection must reap both created areas**, which is the leak the early
trap exists to prevent.
**The `Cargo.toml`-DIRECTORY case was claimed and not covered**, and
the consequence is exactly as review predicted: reverting only the
language-marker arm to `[ -e ]` stayed green. The marker-type row now
drives all three shapes, and `M-G-5` --- that precise revert --- fails
it.
**Prose brought level with the implementation.** The framing, the
handoff and the ledger all said 108; the supported floor is **103
usable bytes**, Darwin's 104-byte array minus its NUL. The ledger also
still said `<pid>`, the superseded 21/30 reserve, and `M-G-1`.
**And the ruling said nested gates "do not pay" the reserve, which is
false and would have licensed exempting them.** They pay it in full;
the short layout merely gives them the headroom to satisfy an unchanged
production guard. Reworded, because the wrong version is the one a
future reader would act on.
**THE btrfs CAUSAL CLAIM IS WITHDRAWN.** The draft argued that a
one-second deadline plus a slower filesystem was a plausible new
mechanism for the fourth `managed_retry` occurrence. It does not
survive inspection: the deadline bounds the connection RETRY loop, not
the socketpair handshake that returned `BrokenPipe`, and the filesystem
work happens before it is armed --- the tempdir is created and never
bound. The environmental change is still recorded, as a CHANGE rather
than a mechanism, so a later occurrence can compare like with like.
Recording a mechanism the code does not support is worse than
recording none: the next occurrence gets measured against a story
instead of the evidence. TMPDIR stays disk-backed.

**108 IS LINUX'S NUMBER, NOT THE FLOOR.** Darwin's `sun_path` is 104
(xnu `bsd/sys/un.h`) and pmacs supports macOS --- CI runs a
`macos-latest` leg --- so a Linux-derived limit passes on the machine
that writes it and bind-fails on the other. **The usable PATH length is
one less than the array**, because the stored value is NUL-terminated:
103 on Darwin, 107 on Linux. The script takes **103**, and the
diagnostic says which platform's floor it is quoting.
**THE NESTED CASE IS NOW RULED, NOT ACCOMMODATED BY LOOSENING THE
GUARD.** The reserve exists for fixtures that bind sockets under
TMPDIR; this script's own behaviour suite runs nested gates whose plans
are synthetic and bind nothing, so charging them the fixture reserve
rejects a configuration that cannot suffer the failure it guards
against. Exempting nested runs was rejected --- it makes the guard
untestable in the very configuration the tests exercise, and "this run
is nested" is not reliably knowable. **The suite roots its gates at a
short base instead**, so a nested TMPDIR is ~24 bytes rather than ~71
and clears the real reserve. Recorded in revision 6 with the rejected
alternative, and with the obligation that a future row which DOES bind
a socket must move off that base and take the reserve with it.
**MIRRORING THE MARKER NAMES WAS NOT ENOUGH; THE TYPES ARE PART OF THE
CONTRACT.** `match_marker` requires `.git` to be a DIRECTORY and the
seven language markers to be FILES, so `[ -e ]` rejected ancestors
project detection walks straight past. The case is not exotic: **a git
WORKTREE has a `.git` FILE**, so every worktree in this repository
would have tripped the guard. It tests `[ -d ]` for `.git` and `[ -f ]`
for the rest, with a witness covering all three shapes --- `.git` file
accepted, `.git` directory refused, `Cargo.toml` directory accepted.
That witness keys on WHICH marker the gate named rather than on whether
a refusal happened, because the ancestors of any base a test can create
are outside its control; "no refusal" is not a claim it can make
anywhere, while "the refusal did not name MY file" is. `M-G-4` reverts
the guard to existence-only and the row fails.

**The gate's own run reproduced a REGISTERED signature**, and it is
recorded as a fourth occurrence rather than waved through: same
selector, same `gpu`-step flavor, all three required fragments verified
against the durable log. Three isolated re-runs were green, which this
file's rule says establishes intermittence only.
**This lane is code-neutral for `pmacs-gpu` but NOT
environment-neutral**, and that distinction is the entry's point.
Occurrence 3 excluded "the added GPU test is the mechanism"; this
occurrence adds nothing to that binary at all, which corroborates the
exclusion independently. But the lane moves `TMPDIR` off `/tmp`, taking
every `tempfile::tempdir()` in the run from **tmpfs to btrfs** --- and
the failing test runs a handshake against a **one-second deadline**. A
slower filesystem under a timing-bounded test is a plausible mechanism
that did not exist in occurrences 1-3. Booking this as "the usual
flake" when the observing lane changed the conditions the flake is
sensitive to is exactly the reasoning this registry exists to prevent.
Also: the suite's own roots move to a short base. Rooting them under
the ambient `TMPDIR` put a NESTED gate's TMPDIR near 70 bytes, which
legitimately tripped its own SUN_LEN guard --- the suite failing on a
configuration it created rather than on the behaviour under test. And
the marker row's `.then(..).unwrap_or_else(..)` chain is gone.

**THE PROPAGATION WITNESS DID NOT OBSERVE INHERITANCE.** The runner's
`eval` expanded `$TMPDIR` in the PARENT before `sh -c` ever started, so
the child received an already-substituted literal --- and an unexported
`TMPDIR=` would have passed the row unchanged. Single-quoted inside
`sh -c` now, so the CHILD expands it. **M-G-1b keeps the assignment and
removes only `export`: the row fails.** That is the mutation the
previous version could not catch, and the reason to prefer it over
M-G-1's blunter deletion.
**THE RESERVE WAS NOT THE MAXIMUM.**
`/.tmpXXXXXX/directory-target.sock` is 33 bytes
(`tests/gpu_invocation_acceptance.rs`), so paths of 76-78 passed the
30-byte guard and still blew the 108-byte limit during the CRDT sweep.
Reserve is 48 now --- the measured maximum plus ~45% headroom. And the
length is counted in BYTES: `${#var}` counts CHARACTERS under a UTF-8
locale while `sun_path` is byte-limited, so a multibyte path measured
short and passed a check it should fail.
**A MANAGED ROOT IS NOT INHERENTLY MARKER-FREE**, and assuming it was
rebuilt the original defect one directory up: a `.git` in `$HOME`, a
marker above `$HOME/build`, or a contaminated
`PMACS_GATE_TARGET_ROOT`. Placement under a directory the gate owns is
NECESSARY, NOT SUFFICIENT, and the old test proved only placement. The
gate now walks the ancestors and refuses, naming the marker it found.
`PMACS_GATE_ALLOW_ANCESTOR_MARKER` is the documented test-only escape,
beside `PMACS_GATE_TARGET_ROOT` in kind and risk: the behaviour tests
run under a tempdir whose ancestors they do not control, on a machine
whose `/tmp` carries this very marker, and their plans are synthetic so
no markerless fixture exists to re-root. **The check is witnessed by a
row that deliberately does not set it**, and M-G-3 (check removed)
fails that row.
**The guard leaked what it exists to manage.** It created both
temporary areas and exited before the trap was armed, so every
rejection left an AMBIENT and a TMPDIR behind. The trap is installed
first now; verified by rejecting a run and finding neither.
**`tmp/$$` with `mkdir -p` was not fresh.** PIDs are reused, so after a
SIGKILL it silently ADOPTS a leftover directory and the run inherits
another run's fixtures. `mktemp -d` fails rather than reuses.
**Prose corrected to match.** The handoff described
`<target>/gate-tmp/<stamp>-<pid>`; the implementation uses
`<gate-root>/tmp/<mktemp>`. Comments called the shared parent
per-worktree and pruned --- it is neither: `--prune` only considers
directories carrying an ownership marker, so the parent is skipped and
each run removes its own leaf.
**AND THE LANE CLAIMED A FRAMING EXCEPTION THAT DOES NOT EXIST.**
`AGENTS.md` says framing -> approval -> branch -> implement,
unconditionally; "the fix was already recorded as standing" is not an
exemption it grants. `docs/gate-script-framing.md` is amended as
**revision 6, AWAITING APPROVAL** --- a widening of §2's existing
isolation responsibility rather than a new feature, which is why it
amends that document instead of opening another. **This PR must not
merge before that revision is approved.**

Discharges the standing fix recorded in `docs/agent-handoff.md` §1 and
assigned to this lane. Every gate invocation now gets a fresh,
disk-backed `TMPDIR` at `<gate-root>/tmp/<pid>`, exported once so every
stage and every process they spawn inherits it, reaped by the same exit
trap as the ambient root. **A gate run no longer needs a `TMPDIR=`
override.**
**A CHILD OF `/tmp` WOULD NOT HAVE WORKED**, which is why the obvious
cheaper fix was not taken. The hazard is an ANCESTOR marker: project
detection walks upward, so a fresh subdirectory of `/tmp` inherits
`/tmp`'s ancestors and the same stray `.git`. The directory had to move
somewhere the gate already owns.
**`SUN_LEN` shaped the layout, and the fix's own gate run is what found
it.** A Unix socket path cannot exceed 108 bytes, and the suites bind
sockets INSIDE `TMPDIR`. The first placement --- `$TARGET/gate-tmp/$STAMP-$$`
--- produced a 114-byte socket path and failed SIX daemon and attach
tests with "path must be shorter than SUN_LEN". It hangs off the gate
root (36 bytes) rather than the per-worktree target (60) now, with a
short name: 47 bytes, leaving 61 for fixtures. Running the real gate
rather than only the witnesses is what caught this.
**A startup guard turns that failure class into a named one.** Six
socket failures deep in a suite name a LIMIT, not a CAUSE; the guard
fails immediately with the path, its length, and what to shorten.
**Its reserve is measured, not round, and the first value was wrong in
the more embarrassing direction.** The longest suffix a fixture appends
is `/.tmpXXXXXXX/test.sock`, 21 bytes, so 30 leaves ~40% headroom. An
earlier "generous" 45 FIRED ON THE GATE'S OWN BEHAVIOUR TESTS: they run
the gate inside the gate, so their root sits under the outer run's
TMPDIR and the nested path reaches 71 bytes. A guard that rejects a
legitimate configuration is worse than the failure it prevents, because
it fires on every run instead of a rare one. Verified both directions:
still catches an 87-byte root, silent on the real one and on the nested
tests.
**Two witnesses, each mutation-checked.** `M-G-1` removes the export ->
the propagation row alone; `M-G-2` stops the reaping -> the cleanup row
alone. Propagation is observed in a SPAWNED CHILD --- the self-test's
first step reports its own `$TMPDIR` into its log --- because asserting
the variable inside the script would only prove the script can set a
variable. The cleanup row runs against the self-test, which FAILS on
purpose, so it also pins that the trap fires on the failure path, which
is the path a leak would actually happen on.
One witness of mine needed correcting twice, both times because it
asserted something adjacent to the contract: first `!starts_with("/tmp/")`,
which tested where the FIXTURE put its root and failed on correct code;
then `contains("/gate-tmp/")`, stale after the directory was shortened.
It now asserts the exact parent, `<root>/tmp`.
**Proved against the live hazard:** `/tmp/.git` is still present on this
machine, and `m4_24_bare_string_glob_stays_relative` --- one of the two
tests it reddened --- passes with no override.

Sixteen gates green with --protocol, under an isolated TMPDIR.
The crdt-gated wire suite is verified to have RUN --- 2 tests in the
crdt sweep, 0 in the default one --- rather than assumed, because a
suite that compiles to nothing reports ok and that is the shape this
project has been caught by before.
The mutation inventory names which row each one fails, including
M-1a-6: a mutation that targeted the wrong side of the append boundary
and so reported a sound pin as vacuous.

Docs only, and the first commit on the 1a branch. **No ruling changes.**
**1a needs no framing of its own** ---
`docs/gui-stage1-input-framing.md` already governs every Stage 1 slice,
and A1-A9, the eight Q#S1-9 precedence rules, §8's wire contract and
§11's gates are ruled there. What 1a does need is §2 to be TRUE, and it
was measured at `a994f37`, before 1-pre moved almost every GPU-side
coordinate in it. A framing whose ground truth points at the wrong lines
is how an implementation ends up arguing with the tree.
Re-measured at `4f77491`, and split by kind rather than renumbered
wholesale, because the two are not the same claim:
STILL TRUE `FrontendEvent`'s sixteen variants, `PROTOCOL_VERSION =
23`, IME's zero occurrences, the TUI wheel arms (1-pre
touched only `pmacs-gpu`), the handshake preceding the
window, and `Outbox::enqueue`'s closed-return.
MOVED `window_event` `:2734`/655 lines -> `:4450`/FOUR lines;
`translate_key` `:10975` -> `:12053`; "eight arms, rest
fall to `_`" -> three family decision functions over nine
variants. **1a edits `apply_keyboard` and
`translate_key`, not `window_event`.**
**TWO CLAIMS WERE WRONG AT BOTH ANCHORS, so they are corrections rather
than drift.**
**"`KeyEvent.text` is never read" is false, and was false at `a994f37`
too** (`:2800` there, `main.rs:3251` now): the AltGr rule reads it via
`is_layout_text(key.text.as_deref(), pmods)`. The true claim is
narrower and is the one that matters --- **`text` is never read as the
text a keypress INSERTS**, only as a discriminator separating AltGr from
a command chord.
That is load-bearing for A5 rather than cosmetic. §5's rule 2 already
exempts "printable Ctrl+Alt recognized by the existing AltGr rule", so
the precedence table depends on code the section claimed did not exist.
**1a widens `text` from discriminator to payload, and that is the actual
change of kind** --- which "text is never read" hid, along with the one
place the new payload must leave undisturbed.
**A4's exit site moved without its behaviour changing.** 1-pre routed
the idle-Escape quit through `EventOutcome`, so **A4 edits a branch and
a return type in `apply_keyboard` (`main.rs:3219`) and does not touch
`window_event`**, which holds the crate's only executable
`event_loop.exit()` (`main.rs:4452`). And **`EventOutcome` survives
A4**: a native close still returns `Exit`.
The lane records the v24 serialization constraint and the bump's blast
radius up front --- eight version-sensitive failures across six suites
on the last bump, of which CI showed one, because cargo stops at the
first failing target --- together with the rule for sorting them and the
pin that must never fire, `ADVERTISED_PROTOCOL_VERSION == 20`.

The lane recorded this PR while it was under review, because an open PR
without a lane is the #171 defect: it drifted 153 commits while
invisible in the ledger. Review is done, so the lane goes.
**It had to go in a commit rather than "at merge".** GitHub merges the
tree as it stands, so leaving it would have landed the words *PR #238
OPEN* on `main` --- a lane advertising an open PR that closed in the
same commit, which is the exact staleness class this absorption exists
to clear.
Rule 4 takes it **outright** rather than rewriting it: a lane is
rewritten when its ARC survives its PR, and this one describes a docs
pass with nothing left behind it. Every reference to #238 and to the
`docs-absorb-237` branch lived inside the lane, so the deletion is
self-contained and leaves no dangling pointer.
What the lane recorded that outlives it is already elsewhere: the
recovery rehearsal and its floor checks are in "Repository authority",
and the GUI arc's state is in the Stage 1 lane and the handoff anchor.

**The absorption was incomplete, and the two holes were Stage 0's.**
`docs/agent-handoff.md` §6 still called Stage 0 "READY FOR PR (not yet
opened)" and the ledger's Stage 0 lane still handed out branch-recovery
instructions and called itself pre-PR --- for work that merged as #236.
A merged lane that still says "checkout the branch" sends a reader to a
tip that no longer moves. Both rewritten; the recovery lines are removed
rather than updated, because there is nothing left to recover.
**A LANE CANNOT REMOVE ITSELF AT MERGE, and saying so was wrong in a way
that would have shipped.** GitHub merges the tree as it stands, so
"removed at merge" would have landed the words *PR #238 OPEN* on `main`
--- a lane advertising an open PR that closed in the same commit. It
stays while the PR is under review, because an open PR without a lane is
the #171 defect, and **a final pre-merge commit on this branch takes it
out**. That obligation is now written into the lane itself.
**Q#GA5 was recorded backwards.** The P2 row said P2 was "gated by the
GUI arc reaching Stage 4b". The ruling is the reverse: **P2 is blocked
by nothing and may start now**; when the arc reaches Stage 4b, P2 must
already have started, and **no later GUI stage begins** until it has an
approved framing and an opened lane. The gate is on STARTING P2, not on
finishing it, and it binds the GUI arc rather than P2. Corrected in both
the P2 row and the GUI row, which had inherited the same inversion.
**`9a26ac8` was the previous last-EXERCISED anchor, not the previous
declared FLOOR** --- that was `e67ad07`, and the two had drifted apart.
Checking the exercised anchor in the floor's place verifies the wrong
claim, so the check is re-run and re-stated against `e67ad07` and
`d038f71`; `9a26ac8` is retained only under its own correct label.
**1-pre did not ADD the idle-Escape local quit.** The docs said "no
behaviour change" and then called the Escape quit a "1-pre change" and
"the one thing 1-pre added" --- which contradict each other and the
diff. It is **pre-existing behaviour that 1-pre preserved and isolated**
behind an `EventOutcome` return; **1a removes it**. Fixed in both files.
**§1a called the board current at `d038f71` while most of it dates from
2026-08-01**, and P5 still described #217 as a held PR although it had
merged. The board is now labelled **MIXED-ANCHOR and explicitly not
current as a whole**, with the drift named as evidence and a pointer to
`git log --first-parent`; the P5 row is corrected. Refreshing the rest
is a separate pass, deliberately not folded into a GUI absorption.
**The exact-head accounting was wrong --- one commit and 34 lines, when
it was two and 38 --- and the fix is to stop counting.** A count goes
stale on the very next commit, including the one carrying the fix, which
is how it broke in the first place. Both the lane and the PR body now
state the standing property instead: every commit after the gated tree
is markdown-only, checkable with `git diff --name-only 502308d..HEAD`.

This file's standing rule is 'when a PR is opened, give it a lane', and
the correction behind that rule --- #171 drifted 153 commits while
invisible here --- applies to a docs PR as much as a code one. Written
with the branch's own commit rather than after the fact, which is also
what keeps a lane from re-conflicting on every other merge.
Records the eight-stage gate result, states the docs-only scope as
something verified with `git diff --name-only` rather than intended,
and notes that the lane is REMOVED at merge: it describes a docs pass,
not an arc, so rule 4 takes it outright instead of rewriting it.

Docs only. No `src/`, no `pmacs-gpu/`, no 1a implementation.
**The recovery procedure was RE-RUN, not SHA-swapped, and that is what
licenses the rest of this commit.** Every documented step, from an empty
directory, on git 2.55.0: clone the canonical URL (which names it
`origin`, and `git remote get-url githubsucks` errors with `No such
remote`, exactly as the section anticipates); add the alias; fetch;
`git log -1 --oneline githubsucks/main` -> `d038f71`; confirm BOTH the
old floor `9a26ac8` and the new `d038f71` are ancestors, so advancing
the floor is valid rather than merely plausible; recover with the
three-argument `git worktree add <path> -b <local> githubsucks/<branch>`
form and confirm the upstream is actually set. The documented TRAP was
reproduced too: the two-argument form succeeds and leaves
`## HEAD (no branch)`, so that correction still holds on 2.55.0.
**This discharges a debt rather than inheriting one.** The previous
absorption advanced the base to `e67ad07` WITHOUT re-running the
procedure and recorded that as an outstanding obligation. It is settled
here, by the run above.
Canonical base, recovery floor, the `git log` threshold and the
last-exercised record all move to `d038f71` together --- a floor that
accepts an older commit than the base it declares passes on a tree the
rest of the file does not describe.
**The GUI lane is REWRITTEN, not removed.** Rule 4 removes a lane when
its ARC is done; the arc is Stage 1 as a whole and **five slices
remain**. The lane now records 1-pre as merged, names 1a as next and
NOT STARTED, and keeps the fact that 1a (v24 `TextInput`) and 1e (v25
`OpenTarget`) are the two protocol-bearing slices and are serialized.
Open-PR and branch-recovery wording for 1-pre is gone --- a lane that
still says "recover with `git checkout`" for a merged branch is how a
reader ends up on a stale tip.
The handoff anchor absorbs both merges, and §1 gains the arc bullet the
anchor promises. Its durable facts are the ones that will bind future
slices rather than the diff: a route carries the DECISION and only the
body gives the EFFECT; a harness that re-implements what it tests
witnesses its own copy; winit's `KeyEvent` is non-constructible outside
winit and this will bind every GUI input slice; the sentinel is the
success condition and the timeout only an error ceiling; four test
defects that were all one shape --- witnessing an absence the harness
had manufactured; and `cargo metadata`, not intuition, decides which CI
job runs a member's unit tests.
**One judgement beyond the stated scope, flagged rather than slipped
in.** §1a's board had no GUI-arc row at all, which would have
contradicted the anchor two sections above it. A row is added at the
position `COHERENCE.md` §20 Q#GA5 gives it --- after Priority 1, running
alongside P2-P5, interacting only at the P2 start gate --- and the P2
row now names that gate. The section's own dateline is corrected in the
same breath: the table was written 2026-08-01 and claimed zero open PRs,
so it now says which row is current and which are as-of that date.

M24 makes the total 24 mutations, not 23. Stated as M1-M24 with the
split named --- twenty-three fail their own rows, and M6 is the P3
exception check, which must STAY GREEN. Writing it as a bare total was
what let the count drift twice: an exception check and a failing
mutation are both 'mutations' in the ledger's usual sense, so the
sentence has to say which is which.
'Gate passes on the final tree' contradicted the very next sentence,
which records that prose and doc comments changed after the run. It now
says final EXECUTABLE tree and explains why the distinction is drawn ---
'the gate was green' and 'the gate was green on exactly this tree' are
different claims, and only the weaker one is true here.

Two review findings, one of them a real defect.
**THE SENTINEL READ COULD HANG FOREVER.** `read_until_sentinel` blocked
with no bound, so a writer or encoder that regressed after `enqueue`
would WEDGE THE GATE rather than redden it --- and a hang is the worst
failure shape there is, because it looks like slowness until the job is
killed. A 30 s `READ_CEILING` is armed on the daemon socket.
The distinction is kept explicit in the code, because collapsing it is
how this fix would undo the design it protects: **the sentinel remains
the success condition and the ceiling is only an error ceiling.**
Arrival is still decided by the sentinel, so the harness never infers
"nothing was sent" from a duration --- the core-count assumption behind
PR #235's CI red is not reintroduced. The ceiling sits far above any
plausible drain, so reaching it means broken, never busy.
M24 proves it fires rather than trusting it: drop the sentinel enqueue
entirely and the row fails in under a second with a diagnostic naming
both candidate causes and the partial transcript, instead of hanging.
**THE STAGE 1a CONSEQUENCE WAS WRONG IN FOUR PLACES.** Every record
claimed A4 would leave `EventOutcome` with one variant, so the type
should go with the Escape branch. It will not, and it should not.
`LifecycleRoute::Exit` --- a native window close --- returns
`EventOutcome::Exit` too. A4 removes the KEYBOARD producer only, leaving
one `Exit` producer.
And **one producer is not one variant**: the type survives because
`dispatch_window_event` must still distinguish `Continue` from `Exit` on
every event it handles --- nearly all must not exit, and the close must.
What A4 actually changes is `apply_keyboard`'s signature. Corrected in
the `EventOutcome` doc, the Escape-branch comment, the framing and the
ledger; the framing's superseded paragraph is deleted rather than
patched, since it also carried the stale "two `event_loop.exit()`
call sites" count. **There is exactly one executable
`event_loop.exit()`**, in `window_event`.
Also: the sentinel-tag comment claimed four modifier bits and used
three. It now says three, wrapping every eight steps, and why that
suffices --- each sentinel is read before the next is issued, so a tag
only has to differ from its immediate predecessor.

Checked with `cargo metadata`, not assumed: `workspace_default_members`
is the root `pmacs` package alone, so the `test` matrix and
`crdt-test` --- both bare `cargo test --all-targets` --- never compile
pmacs-gpu's unit tests. Only `gpu-render` runs them, and it installs
lavapipe, proves the adapter with vulkaninfo, and sets
PMACS_REQUIRE_GPU=1.
That matters because the harness's adapter assert is UNCONDITIONAL
rather than env-gated: it cannot be turned into a quiet ok anywhere, and
a future job that runs -p pmacs-gpu without an adapter fails loudly
instead of silently covering nothing.

Revision 10 argued a route-classification transcript satisfied P2
because a route 'names its local effect'. The wheel falsifies it: a
wheel route carries a delta, and whether that becomes a viewport
update, a panel event, a terminal event or nothing at all depends on
State. The route names the family; only running the body names the
effect. Retracted rather than quietly amended, since it was an argument
this document made and review overturned.

None changes a decision; all four were claims a reader would check and
find false.
**The durable diagnosis command did not run the pair it claimed.**
`m4_24_` is a PREFIX matching **18** tests, so the recorded invocation
would report roughly 16/2 contaminated and 18/0 clean --- not the 0/2
and 2/2 beside it. A reader following it would see a mostly-green run
and conclude the hazard was mis-diagnosed. Replaced with **four literal
`--exact` invocations, one test each**, every one of them executed
before being written down: `running 1 test`, `171 filtered out`,
contaminated `0 passed; 1 failed` panicking at `:5668:5` and `:6615:5`,
clean `1 passed; 0 failed` with no panic. The block now also says to
read the `running N tests` line, pointing at the libtest-filter bullet
two entries below --- which is the trap that produced this defect in the
first place.
**"The diff touches only `pmacs-gpu/src/main.rs`" -> "the whole
EXECUTABLE diff".** The branch changes six files, five under `docs/`.
The structural argument was always about linkage, not file count, but as
written it was simply false and the first `git diff --name-only` would
say so. Fixed in both the ledger and the handoff.
**"a headless test can drive every family"** contradicted the keyboard
exception three paragraphs below it. Now says every family whose event
winit lets a test construct --- all of them except keyboard --- and
points at `route_keyboard` for how far that reaches.
**`[KeyboardRoute::Press]` names a type that does not exist.** It was
renamed to `KeyAction` when the payload moved onto `Route::Keyboard`,
and this doc link was left behind pointing at nothing.
