Harvest sweep, whole-diff review fix block.
The review refuted the #343 ratification's factual premise: the
campaign leg does NOT mint a reopened member's hash — runner.rs passes
the stored strategy_id as topo even for reopened members (reference
semantics). Decision revised on the issue (fix, not ratify): exec's
override run now stamps the LOADED base document's content id
(computed before reopen_all; RED-first — the inverted pin failed on
the old reopened-hash behaviour), keeping topology_hash
store-resolvable and identical in meaning across both legs; the
variation lives in manifest.params. C24/C12/C18 rewritten to the
corrected reading.
Also per review: C24's retired build-free-introspection sentence
updated (old wording archived in the history sidecar, #339 item 4);
C14's partition key precisely scoped to the routing seam, naming the
legs' differing content-validation exits honestly; measure.rs's false
unreachability comment corrected; --taps added to the guide's
introspect cheat-sheet and pinned on the content-id path; the
zero-trade-cell note routed through the diag macro; doc-comment,
issue-ref, and gate-name corrections; the Fixed-regime NaN branch
pinned.

Harvest sweep, batch 6 of 6.
- #343 ratified (per the decision minuted on the issue): an override IS
a topology-parameter variation — the executed run's topology_hash is
the reopened topology's own, deliberately not required to resolve in
the store; the manifest's params map plus the base document
reconstruct the variant. C24 carries the full clause, C12/C18
cross-reference it; pinned by a bare-vs-noop-override hash test
(distinct, and stable across runs).
- #342 item 5: C14 pins exec's unresolved-target exit partition on the
existing usage/runtime line — file-content faults (not-JSON,
op-script, wrong-kind) exit 2, missing-state faults (unreadable
non-id target, unregistered content id) exit 1. One sanctioned
realignment: the wrong-kind refusal moves 1 → 2 to join its
file-content siblings (RED-first on the updated pin); the
unregistered-id row gains its missing sibling pin.
- #341 item 4: the authoring guide gains a worked cost-wiring op-script
(ConstantCost → CostSum via PositionManagement geometry, built and
verified), honest about being a wiring reference — production cost
models still come from a campaign document's cost block (C10).

Harvest sweep, batch 5 of 6.
- introspect --unwired resolves use refs through the registry store:
the parse+resolve phase is extracted from graph build's path into the
shared parse_and_resolve_ops, so a use-bearing document introspects
identically to how it builds (fetch, C29 gate, label resolution) —
retiring both the hard miss and the 'content id' mislabeling of
by-name refs. The engine's subgraph closure contract is unchanged
(store-freedom binds the engine, not the CLI caller).
- ganging a spliced instance's member path refuses with the rule
(OpError::GangOfSplicedInstance) instead of the typo-shaped
no-such-param prose; the leaf-typo case keeps its UnknownParam shape
under a new sibling pin.
- the --node pending note names the follow-up moves on the current
surface (build, then introspect --params / --unwired), and the
authoring guide gains a worked LinComb op-script example
(args-then-bind order, term[i]/weights[i], verified by building it).

Harvest sweep, batch 4 of 6.
- present_campaign's cell loop gains the non-walk-forward sibling of
the #313 note: a cell whose families are all non-wf and whose every
report traded zero times gets 'aura: note: ... metrics are vacuous,
not a break-even result' on stderr (emit-independent; wf cells keep
their window note, gate-truncated cells stay silent).
- exec's single-run bias leg (always RunData::Synthetic — a direct
blueprint exec never binds real data) notes on a zero-trade run that
the built-in 18-cycle stream is a smoke fixture and points at a
campaign document's data section for a meaningful run.
- blueprint_serde refuses to serialize a still-pending arg-bearing
builder (SerializeError::PendingBuilder naming node type + missing
args + the try_args remedy) instead of emitting an args-free v1
document whose fault only surfaces at load as MissingArg — the
write-side twin of the load-path fence; only the Rust GraphBuilder
path can reach this state.

Harvest sweep, batch 3 of 6 (second half).
The third externally-tagged variant ('{"fixed":{"distance":..}}',
additive — stored Vol/VolTf documents keep their bytes): doc-tier
validation mirrors FixedStop::new's distance>0 assert (NaN refused)
so the assert is unreachable from a document; stop_rule_for_regime
binds the shipped FixedStop composite; run_blueprint_member stamps
stop_distance beside the vol knobs' precedent and
stop_rule_from_params re-derives Fixed from it (stamps are mutually
exclusive; the pre-#233 no-knob fallback is unchanged). BadRegime
prose widened to name the distance rule. C10's risk-axis paragraph
updates from 'additive when needed' to shipped; glossary gains the
fixed variant.
closes#338
Harvest sweep, batch 3 of 6 (first half).
Composite::declared_taps() walks the blueprint depth-first collecting
(tap name, source wire, column kind), names bare at every depth —
mirroring inline_composite's hoist, where a tap's name IS the flat
graph's load-bearing identifier — and bounds-total over invalid wires
(compile's validate_wiring stays the real gate). The CLI view loads
like --params (FILE gates the authored root name, a content id does
not), prints one 'name node.field Kind' row per tap, and renders the
tap-less case as a stderr note with empty stdout, exit 0.
Closes the recovery-only discovery loop: since #333 the only way to
learn a blueprint's declared tap names was provoking the undeclared-tap
refusal roster.
closes#337
Harvest sweep, batch 2 of 6.
- exec's file-target classification is now a four-way shape peek
(campaign / blueprint / op-script / wrong-kind): a valid-JSON op-script
array refuses at the routing seam with a build-first pointer ('aura
graph build') instead of the blueprint leg's false 'not valid JSON'
claim, and a kind-bearing non-campaign document names the found kind
plus exec's two executable classes. Exit-code classes unchanged
(op-script usage-class 2, wrong-kind runtime-class 1).
- the bare-tap measurement leg renders CompileError::UnboundRootRole by
the signal's own root-role NAME (captured pre-consumption), retiring
the raw Debug-form leak; every other variant keeps the total fallback.
refs #342
refs #339
Harvest sweep, batch 1 of 6.
- graph build's unknown-key refusal now parses the op-list element-by-
element and attributes any per-element parse fault as 'op N (kind):',
immune to serde's deny-unknown-fields token position landing on the
following element (RED-first: the misattribution was pinned failing
before the fix).
- the UnsupportedVersion refusal names the full accepted range
('versions 1..=2'), not just the ceiling.
- a bare unresolved type id inside a data-only project now carries the
same Rust-escalation pointer as the namespaced form ('aura nodes new');
outside any project a bare id stays hint-free (a std-name typo is the
likelier cause there).

refs #341
RED-first fixes for the four M42 A/B findings. campaign introspect
--unwired now drills into a present-but-empty presentation section
exactly as it drills into data, listing persist_taps/emit as open slots
— the miss caused three of the cold start's five dead ends (the process
sibling has no analogous nested-required shape, verified). The override
panic catch wraps known non-diagnostic payloads (capacity overflow) in
domain prose while passing real constructor messages through
byte-identical; a kind-mismatched override renders as prose naming
path, expected and got kinds with a write-this example instead of the
ParamKindMismatch debug struct; chart's unknown-handle refusal names
the current trace surface (exec --tap / presentation.persist_taps)
instead of the retired --trace flag.
closes#319
RED-first fixes for the two field-test bugs on the new flag's blueprint
leg, both formerly exit-101 panics. An out-of-domain override value now
renders the node constructor's own message as a prose refusal, exit 1 —
the single-run bootstrap rides the same catch mechanism the campaign
path's #272 per-cell containment uses (a campaign-leg pin confirms the
identical value was already contained there, exit 3, unchanged). The
retired wrapped axis form refuses before the params zip with a
did-you-mean naming the raw node.param namespace and the discovery verb,
mirroring the campaign leg's existing prose family.

Architect review over 9cfe296..dc5f174 (drift_found -> all five items
fixed in this close): C24's family-machinery sentence re-amended to
current truth (synthetic walks are reproduce-only inputs since the
builder retirement; superseded text to the sidecar); the ported
generalize test's doc no longer promises the retired CrossInstrument
family handle and its stale section header is gone;
FamilyKind::CrossInstrument carries its C18 dead-machinery/read-back
note in code; live comments in campaign_run, bench surfaces, and
graph_construct name exec instead of the retired verbs; the five
inlined topology_hash copies in the bin test module consolidated into
one test helper. What holds, per the architect: C24<->code gated-intake
lockstep exact, C12's single-hash claim true in code, exec dispatch
matches C14's amended text.
Bench (regression gate) exit 0, all five fingerprints OK:
engine_throughput bars_per_s 14014049 (+0.1%), ingest_throughput
12935441 (-0.5%), campaign_sweep wall 1.407s (+0.9%), campaign_heavy
wall 5.688s (+2.1%), cli_fixed_cost run_ms 3.6 (+6.6%, spawn-floor
jitter under parallel-agent load, report-only). No baseline moved.
Also rides: the reviewer re-check's two comment nits (classify-once
wording, SIGPIPE example verb).
refs #319
In-cycle fixes for the independent review of the #319 package, RED-first
for both Importants. A repeated --override path now refuses at the shared
lexer (exit 2, path named) instead of panicking exit 101 through
reopen_all — which also un-misattributes the campaign leg's collision
prose for duplicates. override_paths' refusal points at aura graph
introspect --params (the retired --list-axes reference swept from every
live comment, one explicitly-historical mention remains). exec classifies
file targets through a Result-bearing peek: unparseable JSON refuses
neutrally before any leg is chosen. RunPresentation (single-variant)
removed; run_campaign_returning's contract note names its one deliberate
usage-class exit; C14's routing sentence and C20's family-builder
paragraph amended to current truth (superseded text to the history
sidecars); bench error strings and deletion blank-line runs tidied.
refs #319
Slice 8, closing the #319 retirement's prose and bench debt. Bench argv
rides exec (fixed_cost single-run probe, campaign surfaces, and the seed
helper that still called the retired sweep at runtime — caught by the
bench run itself); all five fingerprints unchanged against the committed
baselines, confirming record-line parity through the retirement. Live
docs (README, authoring guide, project layout, glossary) describe only
exec + campaign documents + graph introspect --params; three glossary
entries explicitly mark their verb retired. Ledger amendments per the C29
discipline — C25's executor-verb-set re-settled (exec + the --override
residue), C14's dual grammar reduced to the one dispatch, C24's
document-built runs/families + gated-intake route list (lockstep with the
code comment), C12's override clause and identity anchor repointed to the
runner-layer hash computation, C18/C22/C27/C01 mention rewrites —
superseded sentences moved verbatim to the history sidecars (c25's
created). Stale dual-grammar doc comment on is_blueprint_file rewritten.
refs #319
Slice 7 of the #319 retirement. aura-runner's blueprint_sweep_family /
blueprint_walkforward_family / blueprint_mc_family lost their only
production callers with the quintet and are gone (family.rs 889 -> 199
lines) together with their zero-caller helpers; reproduce's live inputs
(DataSource, showcase/walkforward sources) stay. Coverage was ported
first: member-computation identity + family-shared topology_hash now pin
through a campaign-document twin in tests/exec.rs, reproduce's multi-member
and MC-seed-label branches re-mint their fixtures directly. The CLI-side
topology_hash helper goes with them — its keep-rationale was disproven
(the record line's hash is computed in the runner's member machinery;
minuted on the issue) — and c28_layering's file list drops the stale
verb_sugar entry. The synthetic per-seed MC family remains an intentional
retirement casualty, recorded in the test dispositions.
refs #319
Slice 6 of the #319 retirement, the destructive half. The five flag verbs,
their five Args structs and dispatch arms, the whole argv->document
translator (verb_sugar.rs, 1257 lines) and 33 quintet-only helpers are
gone; retired verbs now refuse at the clap layer as unknown commands.
main.rs shrinks 4445 -> 2764 lines. The gated-intake route list narrows to
the canonical layer + exec's blueprint leg; exec's own refusal prose no
longer names dead verbs; test seeding recipes ride graph register.
cli_run.rs walked the full disposition table: 94 tests retired with their
dead flag surface (each with a named green twin where the property
survives), 75 ported — exec ports keep assertions byte-identical, campaign
ports inherit their golden grades unchanged (walkforward's 90/30/30 real
roller and the archive window clipping the sugar applied silently are now
explicit document fields — the equivalence held exactly, one reconstructed
walkforward pooled expectancy_r within 1e-12, cause documented inline).
Surface deltas recorded by the ports: per-cell refusals are #272 contained
faults (exit 3 + warning) rather than hard exit 1; the synthetic per-seed
mc family and generalize's merged cross-instrument family record were
sugar-only constructs and retire with it (the campaign record's
generalizations[] carries the data).
refs #319
Slice 5 of the #319 retirement. The scaffolder's project CLAUDE.md and the
CLI concepts help now teach only the surviving surface (exec over both
document classes, --override, graph introspect --params for discovery;
traces via exec --tap / presentation.persist_taps). Sweep vehicles moved
onto campaign documents driven by exec (project_new's starter quickstarts,
cli_broken_pipe — whose bare-sweep EPIPE probe was latently vacuous and now
streams a real 4-member campaign, project_sweep_campaign's real-data leg,
graph_construct's gang-axis parity pair as paired one-cell campaigns);
pure discovery sites became graph introspect --params, and the line-identity
test kept its literal --params expectations minus the sweep half. Help pins
rewritten; the scaffold template's in-src pin follows the new bytes.
refs #319
Slice 3 of the #319 retirement. The campaign leg's --override injects a
single-value axis over the named bound param into every strategy entry —
after intrinsic validation, before the referential gate, so an unknown
path speaks validate_campaign_refs' existing did-you-mean prose and a
kind mismatch its existing fault; collision with a document-declared axis
refuses (an override overrides a bound value, never an axis, exit 2).
The stored bytes and the recorded campaign_id stay those of the original
document; the audit record of an override is the raw member manifests.
The walk-forward zero-trade aura: note: diagnostic now has a campaign-
path producer call (present_campaign per-cell), so it survives the
quintet's removal at today's strength.
refs #319
Slice 2 of the #319 retirement. The blueprint leg now carries both run
shapes: a bias signal via run_signal_r, a no-bias measurement blueprint
(>=1 declared tap) via run_measurement — record lines byte-identical to
run's. --override NODE.PARAM=VALUE (repeatable) is the one deliberate
sugar residue: validated through the shared override_paths prose, the
closed-guard runs on the reopened probe (space == override set), values
bind in reopened param_space order so the manifest records them raw under
params ("what varied"). A measurement blueprint refuses --override
explicitly (its space is not wrap_r-wrapped) rather than dropping it
silently.
refs #319
The #319 retirement's constructive half, slice 1: a new top-level
`exec <target>` executes a campaign document (file, register-then-run, or
64-hex content id — byte-behaviour of the retired `campaign run`, which no
longer parses) or a fully-bound signal blueprint (synthetic single run,
record line byte-identical to `aura run`'s, root-name gate migrated).
Flag discipline is per-leg: --parallel-instruments on campaign targets,
--tap on blueprint targets (refused on campaign targets with prose).
File routing peeks the document's top-level "kind" key: is_blueprint_file
alone cannot tell two .json classes apart.
--override (the #246 residue) and the measurement leg follow in later
slices; run/sweep/walkforward/mc/generalize stay alive until the removal
slice.
refs #319
Reshape the aura data namespace around one principle: every verb emits
JSON, no format flag (the headless-agent posture #264 named).
- aura data info <symbol> (new): one flat JSON object — symbol plus the
six neutral geometry fields (digits, pipSize, tickSize, lotSize,
baseAsset, quoteAsset) from DataServer::symbol_meta when the
<SYMBOL>.meta.json sidecar yields geometry; a symbol is known via bar
files OR sidecar (a sidecar-only symbol still reports its geometry);
an unknown symbol refuses with prose, exit 1. description stays out
until the neutral reader exposes it (data-server#4).
- aura data list: NDJSON — one JSON string per line; an empty archive
emits zero stdout lines, with the human affordance moved to a stderr
note in the #278 class vocabulary.
- aura data coverage: retired — #272's per-cell fault isolation subsumed
the prophylactic pre-run check; aura-runner's data_coverage_report and
its presentation helpers go with it, while interior_gap_months stays
as the campaign path's single gap walk (#295).
The three derived design decisions (description omitted, broader
refusal prose, empty-archive stderr notice) are minuted on the issue.
closes#273
Fieldtest finding B1: the one remaining authored-envelope FILE route,
sweep --list-axes, skipped the root-name gate — a hand-edited
"name":"../escape" listed mangled, non-bindable wrapped axis names
at exit 0 while every sibling intake refused. The discovery surface now
gates before any axis line prints (exit 1, shared prose), restoring
both the #331 every-authored-intake claim and #328's discovery-surface
identity. RED-first: the e2e refusal test was written and observed
failing (exit 0, axis lines printed) before the fix.
Re-enumeration of every read_to_string-fed envelope load confirms the
class is now closed; C24 additionally ratifies the fieldtest's SG1 —
the refusal core sentence is byte-uniform across sites while the
leading context prefix varies by site convention.
refs #331, #328
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
An eleventh op-script op {"op":"name","name":"<n>"} sets the composite
render name (engine Op::Name + CLI OpDoc mirror); omitting it keeps the
default "graph" byte-identically. The default leaked everywhere one
research project has more than one strategy: every store entry named
graph, every default tap recording sharing traces/graph/, and two
use-splices of unnamed blueprints colliding on the default instance
identifier — the authored name dissolves all three through existing
mechanics (no downstream site edited).
Mechanics: at-most-once per script (doc-op precedent), position-free
(read only at finish). A shared deterministic name_gate (aura-engine:
non-empty, no path separators, not . or ..) guards every seam where a
name is born from authored data, because the name keys a trace
directory unsanitized: the op intake (GraphSession::set_name) and all
four CLI fresh-file envelope intakes (register, introspect
--content-id FILE, the bare graph FILE viewer, aura run FILE — the run
route reached begin_run(signal.name()) ungated, and introspect
--params FILE rode the same parse). Store read-back (reproduce, use
resolution, introspect/params by content id) stays deliberately
ungated — C29: registered artifacts are never retroactively
invalidated — pinned by a test that plants a bad-root-name blueprint
via the registry API and asserts introspect --params still answers.
Refusal prose is single-sourced (name_gate_fault_prose) so every seam
reads identically, op-indexed on the op route.
Identity semantics: the authored name hashes into the content id (a
named document is a different document) and never into the identity id
(names are stripped as debug symbols, C23) — pinned by a twin test.
The previously untested use-splice instance-name default
(construction.rs) got its ratifying pin before the collision claim
leans on it. The registry label (register --name) stays orthogonal.
Review rounds caught and fixed: the envelope gate initially fired on
store read-back (C29 violation at the introspect surface), and the
run/params fresh-file routes were unenumerated intake seams — closed
with the call-site classification now recorded in the wrapper docs.
Verification: cargo build/test/clippy -D warnings all green (99 test
targets, 0 failures, independently re-run); the new run-route test was
RED-verified by hand-removing the gate.

Spec: blueprint-name-op (fork minutes on #331)
Architect drift review (cycle a3785a6..b3b7115) found the cycle's raw
switch incomplete on two high items; both fixed forward here rather
than minuted as residue, since #319 builds on this namespace:
- The real/campaign executor still minted WRAPPED manifest.params and
manifest.defaults (AC2 overclaim in the feat commit body). The mint
seams now reshape to raw on every route (member.rs raw_bound_defaults,
runner.rs manifest_space mirror of the family.rs pattern); the fix
surfaced a latent regression in persist_campaign_traces, which keyed
point_from_params by exact wrapped name and is now translation-aware
(same recipe as reproduce_family_in). Old on-disk families stay
replayable (C29; reproduce reads both shapes).
- The walkforward --axis intake silently accepted wrapped names — the
silent alias fork 2 rejected. It now runs the same
refuse_wrapped_synthetic_axes preflight as the plain synthetic sweep
(new e2e: aura_walkforward_synthetic_blueprint_refuses_a_wrapped_form
_axis_name); family builders translate raw names onto wrapped
SweepBinder slots on all three entry points. C24's "retired from the
surface" claim is thereby made true instead of softened.
- Low items: stale graph_construct docstring updated; new
graph_params_and_sweep_list_axes_are_line_identical pins the two
discovery surfaces against format drift.
- Bench infra: aura-bench's campaign_sweep surface seeded wrapped axis
literals and was correctly refused by the new intake — seeds converted
to raw; full bench rerun: all 5 surfaces fingerprint OK, deltas within
load noise (report-only, no baseline update needed).
Library-unit tests calling family builders directly keep wrapped input
(valid: translation is idempotent on exact wrapped names; intake-level
refusal is the user contract). Suite + clippy verified green post-fix.
refs #328
Reconciles the sweep-axis namespace (closes#328): the raw form
<node>.<param> (splice paths keep their interior path) is now the only
user-facing axis name — printed by --list-axes, accepted by --axis on
BOTH sweep routes, recorded in the synthetic run manifest, discovered
by graph introspect --params (bound params included, default= lexicon),
and validated by campaign documents. The wrapped <blueprint>.<...> form
is retired with translation refusals on both seams.
Mechanics:
- classify_axis_intake (aura-runner axes.rs): explicit raw-first
acceptance predicate shared by both --axis intake routes. Deliberately
not built on raw_matches_wrapped, whose equality branch would have
accepted the retired form silently (skeptic finding, minuted on #328).
Wrapped hit -> translation refusal naming the raw candidate (shared
prose builder wrapped_axis_refusal, one literal for both routes).
- The synthetic route resolution moves to the raw frame the real route
(bind_axes) already uses: override_paths/wrapped_bound_overrides_of
match via raw_matches_wrapped (also removing a latent slicing panic),
blueprint_sweep_family translates raw names onto wrapped SweepBinder
slots, manifest.params records raw keys (name-only reshaping, zip is
positional). The two sweep routes now share one convention.
- reproduce translates recorded manifest names raw-or-wrapped onto the
wrapped space: old registered artifacts stay replayable (C29), new
raw manifests round-trip.
- introspect --params gains the bound default= lines via the same
render_value the --list-axes bound pass uses - the two discovery
surfaces are byte-identical by construction.
- AxisNotInParamSpace carries raw_candidate; ref_fault_prose renders
the did-you-mean iff present. Sweep-terminal bind errors
(MissingKnob/KindMismatch) render the raw knob name (render seam
only; acceptance criterion: no user-facing surface prints a wrapped
axis name).
- Downstream consequence fixes: scaffold quickstart example spoke
wrapped; ~90 wrapped test literals converted to raw across six test
files (deliberately-bogus refusal names and the untouched internal
walkforward wrapped route kept, with comments).
Fork decisions and the skeptic correction are minuted on #328
(comments 2026-07-24/25). Grounding-check PASS first attempt (12
assumptions ratified). Review (opus): translation ambiguity cleared
(uniform single prefix per blueprint), reproduce both-shapes traced;
repair pass added the synthetic-route refusal e2e + the shared prose
builder. Verified: cargo test --workspace green (99 targets, 0
failures), clippy -D warnings clean.

The data plane reaches non-scalar structural config (closes#271, the
final Data-authorability-boundary item). Op::Add gains args
(string pairs, applied via try_args after resolve and before the bind
loop — no pending builder ever enters a graph; an arg-bearing type
without args refuses as MissingArg). OpError::BadArg carries the
precise ArgOpError; the CLI renders it as prose naming the arg, its
kind, and the kind's closed hint (exit 1, #175 content-fault class).
Serde: PrimitiveData.args (skip-if-empty — args-free documents stay
byte-identical, golden-pinned, so every existing content id is stable
per C18) with a data-driven format version: the writer emits 1 for
args-free documents and 2 when any primitive recursively carries args;
the loader accepts 1..=2. The old v2-refusal pin flips deliberately to
v3 (named contract change). Identity JSON keeps args — they are
structural, and the Rust configured() path and the args op-script
bridge to the same identity id (pinned).
Roster: Session / LinComb / CostSum enter (33 -> 36, both count pins;
the LinComb-rejection assertion flips to the resolved side). introspect
--node shows arg rows (name, kind, hint) plus the pending note;
OP_REFERENCE's add row teaches the args form. Registry comment
de-staled (LinComb is now roster-reachable).
Sequencing note: this commit lands op seam and roster together so no
intermediate tree state exposes a pending builder.
The op-script gains its tenth verb end-to-end: OpDoc::Use carries a tagged ref
({"content_id": id-or-unique-prefix} | {"name": label}); DTO conversion resolves
it (label sidecar / #302 prefix semantics / verbatim id), fetches, deserializes
eagerly (a vocab/parse failure fails fast naming the id prefix — review
finding, no swallowed .ok()), re-walks the C29 doc gate over the fetched
composite (a doc-less store entry cannot enter a NEW composition; existing
reads stay valid — no retroactive invalidation), echoes every resolution as
the existing benign marker (aura: note: use "<instance>": <ref> -> <id>,
stderr; stdout stays clean payload), and hands the session a pure cached
lookup closure.
graph register <file> --name <label> records the label and echoes repoints
(label "x" -> <new> (was <old>)); graph introspect --registered lists
label / 12-char id prefix / root doc line — the discovery surface for what
use can reference. Refusals are by-identifier, name their rule, and enumerate
the label set (empty store reads as prose); all op-list content faults are
runtime exit 1 per the pinned #175 attribution, argv misuse stays exit 2.
Ten new/extended e2e tests cover label round-trip + repoint, echo discipline,
unknown-label enumeration, the C29 refusal shape, end-to-end sweep axes
through a spliced instance (graph.<instance>.<node>.<param>), the open-pattern
build flow, and the standalone-run bootstrap refusal (asserts the existing
Debug-form fault; an index->name rendering at the run boundary is recorded
residue, not silently claimed). OP_REFERENCE and its help pin move 9 -> 10.
Empirical note for the record: aura run's bias arm re-roots the loaded signal
via wrap_r, so the standalone-run refusal for an open pattern is exercised on
the bare-tap measurement path; the bias path surfaces openness as a role-
binding refusal instead (pre-existing shape, untouched).
closes#317
Two fold-selector/op-script surface-honesty bugs from the 2026-07-24
fieldtests, both RED-first.
--folds (#332): graph introspect --folds rendered the aura-std FoldKind
table — capitalized ids (Mean) and no record entry — while aura run
--tap resolves labels against the fold-registry roster (lowercase,
record included). The discovery surface the --tap help points at thus
misdescribed the accepted input twice. It now renders
FoldRegistry::core().roster() (label + doc per entry); the pinned
FoldKind-rendering test was rewritten to pin the roster form (8 rows,
no capitalized id leaks, record present).
Unknown op-list keys (#326): a typo'd key in an op-list element
("params" for "bind") was silently dropped and the wrong graph built
with zero signal, contradicting the closed-vocabulary posture (C25).
OpDoc now carries serde deny_unknown_fields; the refusal names the
offending key. Exit class is 1, not the issue's suggested 2: op-lists
arrive on stdin, and the pinned #175 attribution principle classes
stdin-content faults as runtime — the new refusal fires from that same
deserialize. Blast radius verified: all 21 committed *.ops.json under
fieldtests/ still build cleanly.
closes#332closes#326
Architect (cycle 9124275..1baee77) holds: the C27 boundary is preserved
and ledger-anchored (selection = run-mode authority, fold growth stays
Rust/role 2; validation solely in the shared bind_tap_plan seam before
store I/O; unlisted taps inert); C1 byte-identity pinned for the
explicit all-record plan vs the record-all default; ledger discipline
kept (superseded C27 sentence verbatim in the new history sidecar); the
C25 projection tension was explicitly adjudicated in C27's Current
state, deferral #312/#327 minuted.
Drift resolution:
- [medium] C14 exit-class: --tap-content refusals (unknown label /
undeclared tap) exit 1 through the assembly crate's runner-side
registers while C14 assigns argv/blueprint-content faults to class 2.
Pre-existing register family (#283 duplicate-tap, #286 exposes-
neither). RESOLVED AS TRACKED-FORWARD to #297 (RunnerError
propagation is where the CLI regains class authority; evidence
comment with concrete sites posted there). A CLI-side shadow
pre-validation was rejected: it duplicates the bind_tap_plan seam
and can drift.
- [low] FIXED here: the three hand-rolled `aura run` usage strings and
the loaded-blueprint-grammar comment now name --tap.
- [low] ADJUDICATED equivalent-as-delivered: the fold-mean expectation
is derived from the pinned R_SMA_PRICES const rather than a second
record run — an independent derivation of the same series; the
spec's intent (fold row equals the series mean) is pinned.
Regression: aura-bench report-only, exit 0, all five surfaces within
tolerance, fingerprints OK (engine 13.78M bars/s Δ-1.6%, ingest 13.13M
Δ+1.0%, campaign_sweep rss 93.9MB Δ+1.9%, campaign_heavy rss 106.9MB
Δ+5.4%, cli run 3.6ms Δ-0.3%; loadavg-5.3 warning noted, report-only).
No baseline update.
Cycle spec + plan + the spent m1 fieldtest spec removed from the
working tree (git-ignored files, shell rm per lifecycle).
refs #310, refs #297
Decide #310's data-authorability fork as (b), split by run-mode
authority: selecting a Named fold subscription is data-reachable on the
one-shot run path; adding a fold stays a Rust entry (role 2, C25).
`aura run` gains a repeatable --tap TAP=FOLD selector feeding the
existing TapPlan seam: no flag keeps the record-all default; any flag
replaces the plan entirely (unlisted taps stay unbound — C27 inert,
non-error). Validation stays in bind_tap_plan (roster-enumerating label
refusal, typed UndeclaredTap, both before store I/O); parse-level
refusals (malformed pair, duplicate tap) exit 2 via the verb's usage
convention.
Rejected alternatives (minuted on #310 with the skeptic-pass
rationale): an op-script/blueprint carrier (C27 forbids recording
policy in the serialized fragment); ratifying Rust-only (softens a
designed-in promise with effort as the only rationale). The
campaign/document carrier and the persist_taps/declared-tap namespace
reconciliation are deferred to the Measurement-reachable milestone
(#312/#327, minuted on #312).
Ledger: C27 Current state records the boundary; the superseded sentence
moved verbatim to the new c27-declared-taps.history.md sidecar; the
glossary tap-plan paragraph updated, fixing the pre-existing inaccuracy
that named `aura measure` a record-all-passing verb (it is the post-hoc
IC analysis and constructs no tap plan).
Verification: 5 new unit tests (parse branches), 5 new binary-level
selector tests incl. a byte-identity pin of an explicit all-record plan
vs the record-all default (C1), 1 measurement-arm test; full workspace
suite green; clippy -D warnings clean. Independent opus diff review:
approved, no Important/Minor findings (nits: inert-arm generic refusal,
a=b=c falling to the roster refusal — accepted as-is).
closes#310
Independent post-cycle review (opus, fresh context) on the branch diff
returned one Minor and one Nit; both adjudicated against the source and
fixed:
- Minor: the concepts paragraph and the sweep/walkforward/mc long helps
claimed the document desugaring unconditionally, but only the --real
branches route through verb_sugar — the synthetic branches execute
in-process and register no documents. The claims now carry the --real
qualifier (and the paragraph names the in-process synthetic path).
generalize keeps the unconditional wording: its only mode is --real
(usage requires it), so the claim is true as stated.
- Nit: the vocabulary listing's `None` fallback would have silently printed
a bare, C29-incomplete row if a rostered type id ever failed to resolve.
Replaced with a loud expect — an invariant breach should not degrade into
exactly the surface this cycle exists to remove.
refs #315
The shipped wording lifted #319's loose "quintet is pure translation"
phrasing into "the research verbs (run, sweep, ...) are sugar — each writes
registered process/campaign documents". Source check (dispatch_run): only
the four verb_sugar bridges (sweep, walkforward, mc, generalize) generate
and register documents; `run` is a direct single backtest, exactly why its
own long help already avoided the desugaring claim. The paragraph now names
the four document-bridged verbs and places run as their single-backtest
sibling — consistent with `run --help`.
Found by re-auditing the shipped prose claims against the source after the
owner asked how I know no error was made (skills-less-cycle experiment,
refs #315): prose claims in help text are exactly the class the green test
suite cannot semantically verify.
The binary is the only always-present teacher (C29); the 2026-07-22 external
field test showed the help teaching nothing but the verb inventory. This
cycle makes every closed vocabulary the binary ships listable with a one-line
meaning, and opens the help with the concepts the field agent had to discover
forensically.
#315 — help + introspection:
- `aura --help` opens with the two-layer concepts paragraph (research verbs
as sugar over registered process/campaign documents; the directly
authorable data plane; bias-as-target-position + protective-stop execution
model in R; how traces come to exist).
- Each document-bridged sugar verb's long help names the process shape it
desugars to (sweep -> std::sweep; walkforward -> [std::grid,
std::walk_forward]; mc -> + std::monte_carlo; generalize -> [std::sweep
(selection), std::generalize]). `run` is not verb_sugar-bridged, so its
help points at the canonical document-first form instead of claiming a
desugaring it does not perform.
- `graph introspect --vocabulary` lists each node type with its schema doc
(bare names taught nothing); `--node <T>`'s head line carries the meaning.
- `graph introspect --folds` (new): the tap-fold vocabulary with bind rule,
output kind, and meaning — it existed only as source comments. The rows
live in aura-std (`fold_vocabulary`), unit-pinned against
`fold_binds_at`/`fold_output_kind` so the prose cannot drift from the
executable rules, and doc_gate-checked (C29 entry seam). The discovery
surface is graph introspect because folds bind at graph-declared taps
(C27); the document layer still refuses a folds slot pending #310.
- `process introspect --metrics` lines carry each metric's meaning (the doc
column existed since #316 but was never printed).
- `campaign introspect --block std::presentation` lists the four persisted
taps' meanings under the persist_taps slot.
- The scaffolded project CLAUDE.md teaches the execution semantics (bias as
held target, protective stop, R) and the document data plane.
#323 — C29 authoring surfaces:
- `introspect --unwired` enumerates the optional `description` envelope slot
for both document kinds (absent-only, like risk/cost); the campaign lib
fixture gains a description, and the risk/cost-bound e2e binds description
too so "no open slots" keeps meaning complete.
- `graph build --help` carries the op-list reference: all nine op kinds with
fields and a worked element each (OP_REFERENCE lives beside OpDoc so a new
variant is one screen from its help line).
- The authoring guide's S0 worked literal is byte-pinned to the scaffold's
LIB_RS template (rendered with the guide's my_lab namespace); the scaffold
e2es compile that template for real, so the pin is a transitive compile
guard. The template gains the guide's C29 comment, the guide gains the
template's rename note — one worked example, two surfaces, zero drift.
Deliberately out of scope (ratified #319, 2026-07-24): no doc-strings for
the quintet's 48 flag fields — the sugar surface retires; only the pointer
lines above bridge toward the document layer.
Verification: full workspace suite green, clippy -D warnings clean,
aura-bench exit 0 with all fingerprints OK (help_ms +1.6% — the longer help
text, in tolerance), cargo doc warning count unchanged (7 pre-existing).
9 new e2e pins in tests/help_self_description.rs; guide + CLAUDE.md pins in
scaffold unit tests; fold-vocabulary rules + doc_gate unit-pinned in
aura-std.

Milestone-fieldtest friction: a single-OOS-window walk-forward printed
"all 1 walk-forward windows recorded zero trades" (captured RED
evidence: fieldtests/milestone-stderr-honesty/captured/
example2_singular.err). The message text moves into a pure
zero-trade_note_text builder — singular "the single walk-forward
window recorded zero trades", plural unchanged so the existing e2e
phrase pins hold — with a unit pin on both forms. refs #278
Iteration stderr-markers-2, tasks 3-4 of the stderr-class-markers plan.
aura-runner's four continuing-run diagnostics join the class grammar as
hand-written literals (the #295 boundary keeps the macro owner in the
presentation crate): the stale-dylib warning gains the `aura: ` namespace,
and the three tap/no-nominee notices become `aura: note: ` — the latter
two extracted into pure note-builder fns with unit pins. The two e2e
pins on the cost-model tap string moved with the retag
(research_docs.rs). A new project_nodes e2e exercises the real stale-
dylib load path: fresh build emits nothing, a source newer than the
dylib emits exactly one class-marked warning and still succeeds.
The #313 notice ships on both walk-forward paths: `aura: note: all N
walk-forward windows recorded zero trades` before the summary JSON,
exit 0 untouched (a null result is a valid research result, #198).
Wording and condition live in one shared diag helper taking the
per-window trade counts (orchestrator tidy of the reviewer's
duplicated-predicate residue); the call sites keep only the
path-specific field extraction. Three e2es pin it: the equal-length
degenerate on the synthetic path (exactly one note, no warnings, exit
0, summary unchanged), a traded negative twin, and the real/sugar-path
degenerate gated on the GER40 archive.
refs #278, refs #313
Iteration stderr-markers-1, tasks 1-2 of the stderr-class-markers plan
(spec signed via grounding-check PASS, decisions logged on #278).
The two stderr diagnostic classes become machine-separable (refs #278):
a new crate-internal diag module owns the grammar as note!/warning!
macros (`aura: note: <text>` benign continuing-run diagnostic,
`aura: warning: <text>` recorded fault the run survives); the four
undifferentiated sites are retagged — gate-emptied cell -> note,
failed cell / walkforward cell / mc cell -> warning — and the four
scaffold literals migrate onto the shared macro (output bytes
unchanged). The always-on record summary line gains the bare `aura: `
namespace it was missing; bare-prefix stays the vocabulary for error
lines accompanying a non-zero exit (C14 partition) and plain info
lines. Exit codes unchanged throughout.
Verification: RED->GREEN warning pin on the per-cell-fault e2e; new
gate-emptied e2e (impossible n_trades threshold) pins the note marker,
exit 0, and the summary-line prefix; scaffold e2es and the full
workspace suite green; clippy -D warnings clean on aura-cli. The C28
shell-module roster test gained the diag.rs entry.
Known residue for the next slices: aura-runner literals (stale-dylib
warning, three tap/no-nominee notes) and the #313 zero-trade notice
follow in tasks 3-5. The verb_sugar warning call sites remain e2e-
uncovered (a hostless walkforward fault fixture is structurally
unreachable — single-instrument validation refuses before the cell
loop); their grammar is pinned via the shared macro and the campaign
warning e2e.
refs #278
Iteration 3 completion (tasks 5-6): the construction vocabulary gains
the slot its own #125 scope-cut comment anticipated. Op::Doc { text }
is the op-script twin of the builder's .doc(...) -- a closed, typed
metadata construct (C25, no logic content); at most one per script, a
second refuses via OpError::DuplicateDoc (the existing duplicate-fault
family), rendered "a doc op may appear at most once". GraphSession
threads the text through Composite::with_doc at finish, so op-built
composites pass the C29 store gate like builder-built ones.
The op-script register test runs on the described variant
(SIGNAL_DOC_DESCRIBED) for both shapes; the doc-less script now pins
the C29 refusal, and the E2E phase added the RestatesName op-script
case. Full gates: cargo test --workspace green (98 suites, 0 failed);
clippy -D warnings clean.
refs #316
Iteration 3 of the self-description plan, tasks 1-3 (checkpoint commit
mid-iteration; the register e2e, the op-script doc slot, and the full
gates follow):
- aura-research: DocFault::BadDescription { subject, fault }; a present
document description passes doc_gate in validate_process /
validate_campaign (absent is never a fault and stays byte-identical);
prose arm in doc_fault_prose; tests incl. content-id participation.
- aura-registry: the store boundary gates admission -- the public
put_blueprint parses the canonical bytes and walks root + named
nested composite docs (None refuses like ""), refusing via
UndescribedComposite { name, fault } / MalformedBlueprint; the raw
write survives as private put_blueprint_unchecked (store-mechanics
tests + the never-retroactive witness: doc-less pre-C29 entries stay
readable). Registry-internal seeders triaged junk-vs-real.
- authored root docs: the 4 example blueprints + their 4 open-fixture
twins, the scaffold starter template, the scaled_signal and hl_signal
inline fixtures, and the three programmatic member.rs builders
(breakout, meanrev, hl_channel) via GraphBuilder::doc -- mechanical
propagation of the authored lines.
Recovery note: the implement run's task 3 discarded tasks 1+2's edits
in three files via a file-level checkout (the issue-#23 guard shape);
the loop's boundary snapshot caught it and the content was restored
from recovery snapshot 11a6ae2, then re-verified (research 81 green,
registry 51 green, cli 58/59).
Known-open at this checkpoint: the op-script register test is red --
op-built composites have no doc surface (#125 scope cut); the op
vocabulary grows the anticipated doc slot in the next task of this
iteration (decision logged on the issue).
refs #316
C29 compile/unit seam, tasks 6-10 -- iteration 1 of the self-description
plan complete: every engine-shipped vocabulary entry now carries a
gate-clean one-line meaning.
- aura-runner: the internal tap recording sink threads its doc (the
last unthreaded NodeSchema site) -- first full workspace build since
the field became required.
- aura-cli scaffold: the sample node's template carries a doc line plus
a maintenance comment, so every scaffolded extension crate starts
gate-clean; both extension-vocabulary fixture exemplars thread real
meaning lines (the load seam walks these in iteration 2). New E2E:
the scaffold's own doc must pass its own gate -- an alibi doc in the
template would teach the wrong pattern to every new project, and the
compiler checks only the field's presence, never its shape.
- aura-research: metric_vocabulary()/tap_vocabulary() promote from bare
name arrays to MetricSchema/TapSchema carriers (id + doc, 17 + 4
authored lines); callers adapt to .id with byte-identical output
(introspection goldens unchanged). The #190 guard keeps its triple --
the doc column adds no fourth roster site.
- Coverage: tests/self_description.rs walks all five vocabularies
(blocks, metrics, taps, folds, std nodes) through doc_gate -- the
guard that keeps any future edit from blanking a doc.
Adjudicated review residue: the 17 metric doc strings are surfaced by
no CLI path yet -- deliberate; task 8 pins callers byte-identical, the
surfacing belongs to the CLI self-description work (#315). Plan-cited
coordinates lib.rs:1003/:1283 resolved to the real caller sites
(:1019/:1299); the plan's literal test code was reconciled to the real
accessors (FoldRegistry::core().roster(), Env::std()).
Gates: cargo test --workspace green (0 failed, incl. the new coverage
walk + scaffold E2E); cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --
-D warnings clean.
refs #316
Completes the #283 registry cycle. run_measurement drops its
duplicated Recorder-bind + post-run try_iter drain for the shared
bind_tap_plan/BoundTaps pair — the mirror of run_signal_r is now the
same code, so the two declared-tap entry points cannot drift; the
measure CLI arm passes TapPlan::record_all() (semantics unchanged,
constant memory). Measure-side library tests pin a fold plan's
one-row trace (streamed mean bit-equal to the slice mean over the
synthetic prices) and the tap-free write-nothing guarantee through
the shared pair.
Run-side integration tests pin the #283 acceptance surface: fold and
live plans agree exactly with the recorded series of the same
blueprint (C1, three runs, three drain policies); a live-only plan
persists nothing; plan refusals (unknown tap, roster-enumerating
unknown label) fire typed before any store I/O; two identical
record-all runs produce byte-identical tap files. The previously
untested `aura: writing tap traces failed` register gains end-to-end
coverage on both arms: store root occupied by a file (pre-run
refusal) and a read-only run dir (deferred initialize-open failure —
the run completes, the failure surfaces terminally, no index.json is
written, the store's treat-as-absent crash shape).
Two forced deviations from the plan's scripted literals, both
verified equivalent: an explicit match replaces expect_err (BoundTaps
is deliberately not Debug — it carries a TraceStreamer), and the test
helper takes &Path, not &PathBuf (clippy::ptr_arg under -D warnings).
Closes#77 as specced: zero per-cycle heap on the tap path
((Timestamp, Cell) payload, committed earlier this branch) and the
Recorder→Probe rename retired (no Probe symbol anywhere; decision
recorded on #77, 2026-07-21).
Verification: cargo test --workspace — 1517 passed, 0 failed;
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings clean;
tap_recording 5/5 (byte-compat anchors + both register arms).

The #283 registry model's assembly seam: tap_plan.rs carries
TapSubscription (Named{label, params} — fully data-expressible — |
Live(closure), the single non-data variant), TapPlan (name →
subscription + default; the plan travels with the FoldRegistry it
resolves against, the Env-at-resolve pattern, so layered hosts inject
vocabulary as data), and the registry itself: eight core entries
(record, count, sum, mean, min, max, first, last), each with a doc
line (help + roster-enumerating refusals) and a scalar-typed param
schema (all v1 entries param-less; the seam ships now because it sits
in every entry's build signature). Typed TapPlanError refusals fire
pre-bootstrap, before any store I/O; the terminal Store variant keeps
the established "writing tap traces failed" register bytes.
bind_tap_plan/BoundTaps is the shared wiring pair both declared-tap
entry points call; run_signal_r is re-wired onto it here (Recorder
bind + post-run try_iter drain replaced — no O(cycles) retention, no
per-cycle heap), with all six callers threaded (both CLI run-arm and
the four example-identity test calls pass TapPlan::record_all()).
run_measurement follows in the next commit.
Registry growth stays a new Rust entry (C25); a layer-registered
entry is pinned by the injection test, param validation by a
schema-carrying test entry (missing/mismatched/unknown all refused
with named messages).
Verification: cargo build --workspace clean; aura-runner 85+ tests
green incl. both example-identity anchors; tap_recording byte-compat
anchors green (recorded traces byte-identical, tap-free writes
nothing, duplicate-tap refusal unchanged); clippy -D warnings clean.

aura {process|campaign} show now accepts the 8-hex prefix every surface
prints: an exact match is tried first, then the prefix is resolved
against the store's candidate ids — a unique match prints the identical
stored bytes as the full id (#164 byte discipline), an ambiguous prefix
refuses listing every sharing candidate, and a genuinely-unknown id
keeps its established refusal. The resolution mirrors the semantics
reproduce shipped with #298, closing the asymmetry the #300 fieldtest
named (df_4). Registry gains list_process_ids/list_campaign_ids
(missing store dir reads as empty, matching the blueprint-scan
discipline); campaign_not_found_prose becomes the single source for
show_campaign's two not-found arms. The ambiguity arm is pinned by a
unit test at the resolution seam — hash-derived ids make a
shared-prefix E2E fixture impractical.
register_process and register_campaign now carry the same
env.provenance() no-project guard as their show/runs siblings, refusing
with exit 1 and the missing-Aura.toml prose instead of letting
Env::runs_root()'s relative fallback materialise ./runs/ in an innocent
cwd. Five pre-existing register tests ran from a bare temp cwd and were
reaching their asserted behaviour only through this bug; they now run
inside the fresh_project() fixture, preserving their original property
(content addressing, intrinsic-validation refusals) in a real project.
Verified: the RED E2E test (register_outside_a_project_refuses_and_
leaves_no_store, both verbs, refusal + no side-effect store) observed
GREEN by the loop's independent verify alongside the full suite.
show_process/show_campaign now guard env.provenance().is_none() before
touching the registry — the guard their siblings (campaign_runs,
validate_campaign_file) already carry — refusing with the honest
degradation prose ('needs a project ... no Aura.toml found up from
{cwd}') instead of blaming the id with 'not found in the project
store' against a store that does not exist. Refusal exit 1 unchanged.
The register-verb sibling gap (silently creating a stray ./runs/) is
deliberately NOT touched here — tracked as #305.
RED-first: the in-process pin landed at 803c970; independent verify
re-ran it green with the suite.
closes#304
Outside any project, show_process/show_campaign print 'not found in the
project store' — asserting a store that does not exist and blaming the
id, where the sibling verbs (campaign_runs, validate) degrade honestly
naming the missing Aura.toml. The in-process RED pins: the refusal
stays Err, its prose names 'no Aura.toml found up from', and does NOT
claim 'not found in the project store'. Diagnosed cause: both show fns
lack the env.provenance().is_none() guard their siblings use, so the
no-project fallback store's Ok(None) masquerades as an unregistered id.

Architect review (cycle 757e3ac): core clean — show is pure shell
dispatch over Env::registry() (C28); both ledger amendments match the
F1-F8 decision log exactly; document schema untouched; the #164
no-framing pin is stricter than the spec snippet asked. Four peripheral
drift items, resolved:
- fix: docs/authoring-guide.md verb rosters now name show (process) and
show|runs (campaign) — the guide teaches exactly the
generate->retrieve->extend loop this cycle closed.
- fix: docs/glossary.md campaign/process document entries carry the
settled verb sets (record-reality glossary write).
- fix: show_process's not-found refusal now sources its prose from
ref_fault_prose(ProcessNotFound) instead of a hand-copied format!
(byte-identical, test-pinned; the campaign-side prose has no RefFault
sibling and stays the single campaign instance).
- ratify (log-only): the shipped show helpers use print! (no framing,
#164) where the spec snippet sketched println! — the code is the
stricter, correct form; recorded on the reference issue's decision
log. The spec is a git-ignored working file swept at this close.
Regression: aura-bench report-only run, all fingerprints OK, deltas in
noise (host load 9.6 noted; engine/ingest/campaign/cli lanes all within
±5%). Full aura-cli gates re-run green after the tidy edits.
refs #300
The #300 keystone cycle: the residual run-quintet flags were already
document vocabulary on the --real arm (#210/#220); this closes the loop
and ratifies the surface.
- `aura process|campaign show <content-id>` prints a registered
document's canonical bytes (print!, no framing — #164), so
generate -> retrieve -> hand-extend -> re-register needs no direct
store filesystem access. Refusals reuse the store-hint prose, exit 1.
- walkforward/mc --stop-length/--stop-k become clap-typed i64/f64
(generalize's form); stop_knob_or and its parse_csv_list helper are
deleted (multi-value/invalid input is now clap's exit-2 rejection —
the two dissolved-verb refusal tests retarget, the type-dead unit
test is deleted).
- --select accepts bare `plateau` as the documented default
plateau:mean (#227 carry); document schema untouched — the two
spellings generate content-id-identical campaigns (test-pinned).
- family.rs's quadruplicated demo stop literal collapses onto one
DEFAULT_STOP const (maintainer-lens drift finding).
- Ledger: C25's "which projection next" line resolved (document-first
delivered, per-verb identity re-ratified — F8; host/MCP stay
demand-driven); C18 records the read-back.
Design triage, fork decisions F1-F8, and the auto-signed spec live on
the reference issue. Verification: full workspace suite 1482 passed /
0 failed with the real GER40 archive exercised (the byte-identity
round-trips ran, not skipped); clippy -D warnings clean.
closes#300
Cycle-close audit (architect: drift_found; design core clean). What
holds, architect-confirmed with the guard run and the diff read in
full: the shell boundary is real and enforced (full-workspace
c28_layering incl. completeness + shell-content checks, acceptance
grep clean — no member-run symbol left under crates/aura-cli/src);
aura-campaign keeps zero production dependency on the runner; the IC
move is verbatim against the anchor; the new library-only E2E pins C1
(two independent runners, byte-identical RunReport).
Drift items, all resolved as fixes in this commit:
- design ledger: the C28 status sentence "No crate exists yet for
measurement" contradicted this cycle's own phase-3 done line — now
records aura-measurement as seeded (#295), execution still unbuilt.
- the #147 registry-dispatch acceptance tests (IC deflation null,
seeded determinism, cross-vocabulary refusal) were pure library
properties stranded in the shell's test module — relocated to
aura-measurement/tests/registry_dispatch.rs (engine/registry as
dev-only, layering-exempt edges), per the cycle's own tests-move-
with-their-module rule.
- aura-runner's direct production edge on the external data-server
tree was structurally invisible (the direction table checks aura-*
keys only) and unrecorded — the C28 assembly prose now names it, and
a new c28_layering test pins the external tree's entry points to
exactly {aura-ingest, aura-runner, aura-cli}.
- the C28 shell prose named three buckets that did not cover two real
shell residents — it now names the op-script construction front-end
(translation) and the `aura new` scaffolder (authoring-tooling,
shell-resident like rendering until a second consumer wants it).
Deliberately deferred, tracker homes exist (not drift): #297
(process::exit sites in aura-runner's single-run verb paths), #294
(IC duplicate-timestamp semantics), #288-era rustdoc unresolved-link
warnings in aura-std/aura-backtest (pre-existing byte-identically at
the anchor).
No regression scripts are configured (the bench is report-only); the
architect review is the gate. Verification: cargo test --workspace
green (1474 passed, 0 failed) incl. the relocated registry-dispatch
tests and the new data-server guard; clippy --workspace --all-targets
-D warnings clean.
refs #295
Completes the shell-boundary cycle (tasks 10-13):
- c28_layering now enumerates the FULL workspace: every crate row is
reconciled against its real production [dependencies], a completeness
assertion pins the table to the on-disk crates/ set (a new crate can no
longer escape the guard silently), the shell/assembly imported-by-
nothing rule is asserted, and a shell-content check pins aura-cli to
no-[lib] plus a closed allow-list of argv/translation/presentation
modules. A new domain module in the shell now fails the suite.
- Ledger amendments: C28 gains the assembly position (aura-runner) and
the corrected import-rule prose (the ratified aura-campaign ->
aura-backtest production edge, #291/#292); phase 3 is marked done with
the #297 process::exit residual named; a provenance note records this
as structural-debt closure, not a demonstrated downstream blocker.
C25 records the control-surface decision: the text artifact vocabulary
is canonical, every control surface (CLI executor verbs, a future
host, an MCP face, a World program) is a projection/executor over it —
the which-projection-next ranking deliberately open on #295. C14 gets
the executor-face amendment, C26 the binding-module relocation.
- aura_campaign::MemberRunner's doc names the shipped default
implementor (aura-runner::DefaultMemberRunner) while the column keeps
zero dependency on it.
- New library-only E2E fixture (aura-runner/tests/world_member_run_e2e):
runs the canonical member recipe over a tiny synthetic archive with no
aura-cli in the link graph, and pins C1 determinism (two independently
constructed runners produce a byte-identical RunReport).
- campaign_run.rs module doc: intra-doc MemberRunner link re-anchored to
aura_campaign::MemberRunner (the impl moved out with part 1).
Verification: cargo test --workspace green (1473 passed, 0 failed);
clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings clean; cargo doc clean of
NEW warnings (the five unresolved-link warnings in aura-std/aura-backtest
predate this cycle byte-identically at the anchor — #288-era doc drift,
left for the cycle audit).
refs #295
The shell no longer defines what an aura backtest is. Tasks 1-9 of the
shell-boundary cycle — structural extraction, behaviour byte-identical:
- aura-runner (new; the C28 assembly position): input binding (the C26
module, moved whole), the C1-load-bearing param<->config translators,
harness assembly (wrap_r / run_signal_r / run_blueprint_member and the
probe/reopen cluster), axis + risk-regime conventions (bind_axes et
al.), the campaign family builders + MC guards, reproduce
(process::exit -> RunnerError, shell remaps to identical bytes), the
measurement-run orchestration, project loading (Env / cdylib load /
charter / staleness, moved whole), the coverage gap-walk (deduplicated
onto interior_gap_months), and DefaultMemberRunner — the public
implementation of aura_campaign::MemberRunner (ex CliMemberRunner).
The MemberRunner trait stays in aura-campaign; the column still
imports no harness/data-binding machinery.
- aura-measurement (new; seeds C28 rung 3): the IcMetrics/IcKey
vocabulary + information_coefficient, verbatim incl. serde derives
(#294 duplicate-timestamp semantics move as-is, unresolved).
- aura-backtest: the pure per-run scaffold (point_from_params,
wf_ms_sizes / fit_wf_ms_sizes, intersect_shared_window).
- shell residue: main.rs / campaign_run.rs keep argv/dispatch,
argv->document translation, and presentation only;
walkforward_summary_json_from_reports now calls the public
aura_engine::param_stability instead of its inline twin.
- worked example (crates/aura-runner/examples/world_member_run.rs): a
World program runs a member backtest through the library alone.
Held quality findings, adjudicated: the plan's literal pub-visibility
list for binding.rs kept (cosmetic); ~20 refusal sites inside
aura-runner (family/member/measure/translate) still process::exit —
behaviour-identical today, conversion to RunnerError is filed forward
(refs #297); rustfmt line-width drift on re-pathed call sites left for
a repo-wide fmt decision.
Verification: cargo test --workspace green (1471 passed, 0 failed);
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings clean. Byte-identity
is pinned by the untouched shell E2E suites (cli_run, measure_ic,
run_measurement, research_docs, run_refuses_unrunnable_blueprint,
tap_recording — zero assertion edits).
Remaining in this cycle: full-workspace c28_layering + shell-content
check, ledger amendments (C28 assembly position, C25/C14 control-surface
consequence, C26 realization note).
