Architect drift review (drift_found) resolved fix-path on all three
items. [high] The sweep/walkforward/mc family builders and
validate_and_register_axes read authored envelope files and
put_blueprint'd them ungated — falsifying the C29 exemption's premise
that the store is populated through gated intakes; all four sites now
gate the root name before the family/axis build (placing the gate
after the build produced a misleading unknown-axis error instead of
the gate refusal — RED-verified), with an e2e pin on the synthetic
sweep route. The decision was gate-the-routes, not weaken-the-prose:
the exemption's premise is the invariant, not a wording choice.
[medium] C24 now states the gate rule as the class it is (the op
intake plus every CLI intake reading an authored envelope from a
file; store read-back exempt, C29). [low] C23 reconciles
names-as-debug-symbols with the render name's one operational role
(trace-directory key — never compilation, identity, or execution
semantics).
Ratify: aura-bench cli_fixed_cost baseline re-pinned
(run_line_fnv 6bb0d796f760d140 -> 9bdbc3acf7b2926a). The moved metric
was caused by the #328 tidy (4474814), which switched single-run
manifest defaults from wrapped to raw axis names after that cycle's
bench rerun had already passed; bbac29d and this cycle's HEAD produce
fingerprint-identical record lines (verified with both binaries on
one scratch project), so this cycle only inherits the stale pin. All
five surfaces fingerprint OK after the re-pin.
refs #331, #328
The single-file ledger had grown to 2968 lines / ~42k tokens, mixing
current design law with accreted history: 59 cycle-stamped realization
blocks, 18 [HISTORY] passages, 22 supersession markers, and the C10 /
C22 / C24 reframe sagas layered several supersessions deep. A
code-grounding audit (31 agents, adversarially verified) confirmed 11
defects stated as current truth: stale crate homes from the C28 #288
roster split (cost nodes, PositionManagement, PositionEvent, Session),
the renamed InputSpec->PortSpec, the pre-#241 project model in C16 and
the open-threads section, a stale HarnessKind retirement deferral in
C24, and three C28-internal inconsistencies.
New shape, per the ailang precedent:
- INDEX.md stays the sole addressable entry point: foundation, external
components, a C-id-keyed contract map (one line per contract), and
only the genuinely open architectural threads.
- contracts/cNN-<slug>.md carries each contract's current truth only:
Guarantee / Forbids / Why with ratified refinements integrated, plus
a code-anchored Current state. All confirmed defects are fixed here;
crate anchors were re-verified against the tree.
- contracts/cNN-<slug>.history.md (18 sidecars) and INDEX.history.md
preserve every superseded block verbatim, stamps and issue refs
intact, under a frozen-record banner. Nothing was deleted: superseded
design intent remains an addressable working-tree artifact, off the
per-cycle audit walk.
- Ledger discipline is now stated in INDEX.md: live files are edited in
place at cycle close, superseded text moves verbatim to the sidecar,
and a supersession marker in a live file is itself an audit finding.
Every contract file was verified against its old text by an independent
zero-loss pass (statement-by-statement) plus a code-accuracy spot check;
C-ids and contract titles are unchanged, so existing C-id citations in
code, tests, and issues resolve as before.
