## `docs/active-work.md` — review round 2
The lane's volatile block gains the round-2 record: the three findings,
why P2a's fix is a mapped diagnostic and P2b's is escaping at
presentation rather than rejection at the registry, and the seven new
mutation checks. The gate outcome is recorded with its step counts and
the two stop-signal facts — `journey_acceptance` 47/47 and all three
`#pmacs.process.list()` leak detectors byte-identical to `main`.
It also records what P2a's audit found and did NOT fix:
`pmacs.process.spawn`'s other string fields still convert generically.
That is pre-existing and out of this lane's diff, and it is named so it
is not silently inherited by whoever reads the fixed `purpose` read and
assumes the rest matches.
## `docs/ci-red-signatures.md` — R7's third occurrence, and U4
**R7 reproduced, and the control the second-occurrence note prescribed
finally discriminated — against its own hypothesis.**
Occurrence 2 left exactly one causal path open: the observing lane had
added a GPU-heavy `render_offscreen` test to the same binary, and
contention with a one-second socket handshake was plausible. That note
prescribed the control to run if a third occurrence landed — with the
added test removed, not at the merge base. A third occurrence landed, at
the gate's `gpu` step, with all three fragments verified against the
durable log.
The control was run. **Ten full `-p pmacs-gpu` runs with the added test:
10/10 green. Ten with it `#[ignore]`d, nothing else changed: 1 failure
in 10, all three fragments present.** Removing the suspect made the
failure more frequent, so the concurrent-test path is excluded — no
contention story from that test survives that direction.
The more useful result is the rate. This is the first rerun in R7's
history to reproduce anything at all, and it puts the failure at roughly
1-in-10 under ordinary `-p pmacs-gpu` load. Three sightings were not
enough to bisect a handshake; 1-in-10 is. The row now says so, and tells
the next agent to instrument which side closes the pipe rather than
re-run for green.
The lane is still not attributed — now for a measured reason rather than
an argument from diff shape: the arm without the lane's only
`pmacs-gpu` addition is the arm that went red.
**U4** records the other two reds from that same gate run:
`criterion_1_end_of_line_typing_completes_sub_frame_per_keystroke` and
`composition_overhead_under_ten_percent`, both wall-clock budget
assertions, failing together in `04-lib-crdt` and both green in
isolation and in the next full run. Fragments captured, so unlike U1–U3
it is matchable — it is a `U` row for want of a mechanism, not for want
of evidence. The signature named is **the pair**: two budget tests
failing in one run and neither in the next is far more likely to be one
loaded machine than two simultaneous regressions, and a future run that
reds only one of them is a different incident.
Neither row claims harmlessness, and the concurrent-worktree load
confound is recorded as a rival explanation rather than as a finding,
because it was not measured.
