Cycle-close tidy for the glossary-integration cycle (fc0e1d0..HEAD).
Architect drift review (sole gate — repo ships no
.claude/dev-cycle-profile.yml, so commands.regression is empty and the
regression step is a documented no-op):
- [medium] FIXED. docs/glossary.md Avoid-lists `release`/`epic` while
profile-schema.md § vocabulary offered the same words as example
slot renamings — opposite verdicts on the same words in two in-repo
docs, with neither stating its scope, reading as contradiction.
Resolution (per the user's steer: the glossary is the new source of
truth for nomenclature): state that authority once, where the
glossary's role is owned. glossary-convention.md now declares the
set glossary the SoT for a project's nomenclature and that its
canonical entry + Avoid list win over any colliding vocabulary
example; profile-schema.md's vocabulary note defers to it with a
pointer rather than restating the rule, keeping the single-sourcing
the architect flagged as clean. The glossary itself is unchanged —
it is the SoT and was already correct.
- [low] CARRY-ON. glossary-convention.md mandates an `**Avoid:** —`
line for synonym-free terms, but no dogfood entry in glossary.md
exercises that arm (all five terms have real synonyms). Accepted as
low-severity documented debt: the rule is unambiguous prose, and
coining a synonym-free term solely to exercise a formatting arm
would be gold-plating. Revisit if a genuinely synonym-free canonical
term enters the dogfood.
What holds: wiring semantics single-sourced at the paths.glossary row;
convention/instance split clean; boss named as the only autonomous
glossary writer; all six spec acceptance criteria landed.
Cycle is drift-clean. Not a milestone close (no milestone fieldtest
run; see docs/pipeline.md § Milestone-close gate).

Pins canonical nomenclature per project so terminology does not drift
and LLM-driven work reuses the established term instead of coining a
synonym each session. The glossary rides the existing standing-reading
mechanism — one optional path slot, no new delivery path.
Single-sourcing, to avoid cross-doc drift:
- `paths.glossary` row in profile-schema.md owns the "set => standing
reading for every role; unset => no-op" semantics; agent-template.md
and pipeline.md each carry one referencing sentence, not a restatement.
- glossary-convention.md owns the format (flat per-term blocks: canonical
heading + Avoid line + <=2-sentence definition) and the boss
record-reality-never-invent write-rule; boss/SKILL.md only points to it.
- glossary.md dogfoods the format on the plugin's own vocabulary
(cycle, milestone, iteration, drift, hard-gate).
Write authority: user any time; boss autonomously but only to record
terms already in consistent use or to settle a drift it just resolved —
never to coin. All other roles are read-only consumers.
No executable surface; this repo has no test runner, so each task closed
on a grep presence-assertion against the file it touched. All eight gates
green (T1 3>=3, T2 5, T3 2, T4 1, T5 1, T6 1, T7 2, final sweep present).
Implements docs/specs/2026-05-31-glossary-integration-design.md.
