Four tasks, ordered by compile-gate discipline (each leaves a coherent gate
satisfiable):
1. aura-core contract (FieldSpec, NodeSchema.output -> Vec<FieldSpec>, Node::eval
-> Option<&[Scalar]>) + aura-std Sma/Sub degenerate migration, threaded in one
task. The signature change breaks aura-engine, so the gate is SCOPED to
`-p aura-core -p aura-std` (engine is knowingly broken until task 3).
2. aura-engine production: Edge.from_field, NodeBox.out_len, per-field bootstrap
kind/range check, reused-scratch field-indexed run forward, run ->
Vec<Option<Vec<Scalar>>>. Breaks the in-module tests, so the gate is a PARTIAL
`cargo build -p aura-engine --lib` + clippy --lib only.
3. aura-engine tests: migrate the 3 firing fixtures to the slice return; add the
Ohlcv 5-field bundler + TwoField mixed-kind fixture; the field-binding proof
(high-low, close-open), K>1 output, determinism, and must-fail (from_field OOB
-> BadIndex, per-field kind mismatch -> KindMismatch); adapt all prior
0003/0004 tests to from_field + the Vec return. Full workspace gate + purity
grep.
4. design ledger: C8 revision (one output port carrying a record) + C7 sharpening
(composite-bundle is the node-output model). Docs-only; glossary record-reality
is audit-time, not this plan.
Orchestrator decisions baked in: the spec's illustrative `schemas_out_len[nidx]`
is committed as a `NodeBox.out_len` field (set at bootstrap) read into a run-loop
local; the firing fixtures hold a `[Scalar; 1]` buffer constructed at each call
site; Sub drops `#[derive(Default)]` (Scalar has no Default) for a manual Default
that keeps clippy's new_without_default quiet; the engine lib.rs doc is left
untouched (no single-scalar phrase there -- only harness.rs doc + Edge doc move).
plan-recon confirmed every spec-named path exists and the compile-driven site set
(6 output: literals, 6 fn eval, 6 Edge literals, 11 .run callers); from_field /
FieldSpec / Ohlcv are net-new. No content-pin/golden-file twin-miss risk.
