The one question this asks

ogar-r2il's CallMask carries its own Boolean algebra — and / or / xor / and_not / not / count over inline u64 words — while lance-graph-mask-risc is the ONE evaluator above ndarray::simd. lance-graph-quack's own manifest states the rule:

"the masking algebra is reached THROUGH mask-risc, never beside it."

So: do the two agree bit-identically over the same borrowed words?

They do. 6/6 green across all three LaneShapes (180 / 120 / 90 calls), seeded fixtures plus every word seam the shape can express (63/64, 127/128, len-1), densities 0/1/7/13/50/93/99/100.

not gets its own test because it is the only op with a tail obligation on both sides — CallMask clears per-word against len, mask-risc against n_rows — and they agree only if both clear against the same population.

What this does NOT prove

It is not a Quack↔R2IL bridge. The two sides are not two views of one population:

CallMask     population = call slots inside ONE body   N <= 180
mask-risc    population = rows of one projection       N ~= 64K

Same algebra, different index spaces. n_rows is a CallMask's len() precisely so the comparison is apples-to-apples on the narrow side; feeding a body's call mask to a row-population consumer would be a category error, not an optimisation. Deriving a genuine row predicate from a body is the next wave, not this one.

Ownership is deliberately NOT decided

CallMask is the oracle here and stays it. Nothing is deleted, nothing delegates, no dependency direction changes. That decision needed the differential green first, and now has it — three options remain open (tiny wrappers / shared lower primitive / delegation), and this probe picks none.

Ternlog is the direction the agreement matters in

CallMask has no three-input op. mask-risc's arbitrary-immediate form reproduces all four of its binary ops, so CallMask's algebra is a subset of mask-risc's rather than a sibling — the evidence the deferred ownership decision will need.

The immediates are derived from each op's truth table, never hand-written. The first draft hand-wrote and as bits 7|5 where only bit 7 is the conjunction, and the failure read as a substrate disagreement rather than as an arithmetic slip in the fixture.

Disable table — every test verified red-then-green

test disable that reddens it
both_sides_span_the_same_words words() widened to the full carrier
and_or_xor_andnot_agree_bit_for_bit CallMask::andor
not_agrees_including_the_tail CallMask::not tail clearing removed
count_agrees_with_the_count_terminal count_onescount_zeros
ternlog_reproduces_callmask_s_binary_ops CallMask::andor
the_fixtures_actually_discriminate both of the above

the_fixtures_actually_discriminate stays green under the slice disable — correctly: it compares CallMask to CallMask and never crosses to mask-risc, so an equally-widened slice on both sides cannot change it.

Placement is forced, not chosen

mask-risc path-deps ndarray at ../../../ndarray, a path that leaves its own workspace and can never resolve through a cargo git checkout — so the differential cannot live on the OGAR side (which has no ../../.. path deps and reaches lance-graph-contract by git). The direction used here matches crates/symbiont's existing ../../../OGAR/crates/... deps.

Workspace-EXCLUDED with its own [workspace] root, so no ordinary workspace test needs the OGAR sibling present:

cargo test --manifest-path crates/r2il-mask-abi-probe/Cargo.toml

Kill condition, stated in the test's own module docs

A disagreement is the finding, not a bug to align away. Do not "fix" either side until it is settled which semantics is correct — the difference is the information.

Dependencies

Requires AdaWorldAPI/OGAR#305 (the CallMask::words() accessor) as a sibling checkout. No code in the default workspace graph changes; Cargo.toml gains one exclude entry.

…risc)

`ogar-r2il`'s `CallMask` carries its own Boolean algebra -- and/or/xor/
and_not/not/count over inline u64 words -- while `lance-graph-mask-risc` is
the ONE evaluator above `ndarray::simd`. `lance-graph-quack`'s own manifest
states the rule: "the masking algebra is reached THROUGH mask-risc, never
beside it." This probe asks only whether the two AGREE bit-identically over
the same borrowed words.

Result: they do. 6/6 green across all three LaneShapes (Pairs 180 /
Triples 120 / Quads 90 calls), seeded fixtures plus every word seam the
shape can express (63/64, 127/128, len-1), densities 0/1/7/13/50/93/99/100.
`not` gets its own test because it is the only op with a tail obligation on
both sides -- CallMask clears per-word against `len`, mask-risc against
`n_rows` -- and they agree only if both clear against the same population.

CallMask is the ORACLE here and stays it. Nothing is deleted, nothing
delegates, no dependency direction is decided: that decision needed the
differential green first, and now has it.

Ternlog is the direction the agreement matters in: mask-risc's
arbitrary-immediate form reproduces all four of CallMask's binary ops, so
CallMask's algebra is a SUBSET of mask-risc's rather than a sibling. The
immediates are DERIVED from each op's truth table, never hand-written --
the first draft hand-wrote `and` as bits 7|5 where only bit 7 is the
conjunction, and the failure read as a substrate disagreement rather than
as an arithmetic slip in the fixture.

What this does NOT prove, stated in the test's own module docs: it is not a
Quack<->R2IL bridge. CallMask indexes call slots inside ONE body (<=180);
mask-risc indexes rows of a projection (~64K). Same algebra, different
index spaces -- `n_rows` is a CallMask's `len()` precisely so the
comparison is apples-to-apples on the narrow side. Deriving a genuine row
predicate from a body is W0C.

Placement is forced, not chosen: mask-risc path-deps `ndarray` at
`../../../ndarray`, a path that leaves its own workspace and can never
resolve through a cargo git checkout, so the differential cannot live on the
OGAR side (OGAR has no `../../..` path deps and reaches lance-graph-contract
by git). The direction used here matches `crates/symbiont`'s existing
`../../../OGAR/crates/...` deps. Workspace-EXCLUDED with its own
`[workspace]` root, so no ordinary workspace test needs the OGAR sibling
present; verify via
`cargo test --manifest-path crates/r2il-mask-abi-probe/Cargo.toml`.

Kill condition, in the module docs: a disagreement is the FINDING, not a
bug to align away.

The probe is workspace-excluded, so every `cargo test` step in this
workflow steps past it -- and this repo's own discipline is that an
excluded crate without a CI line rots invisibly (measured elsewhere in the
fleet: a floating branch dep broken for weeks because no CI built the pair).

It is runnable here and nowhere else in CI today: `rust-test.yml` already
checks out BOTH siblings the probe needs as siblings of `lance-graph`
(`path: ndarray`, `path: OGAR`, `working-directory: lance-graph`), which is
exactly the layout `../../../ndarray` and `../../../OGAR/crates/ogar-r2il`
resolve against. Placed beside the lance-graph-ogar step, the other
OGAR-sibling-armed excluded tier.

ORDERING, stated rather than hidden: this step is RED until
AdaWorldAPI/OGAR#305 (`CallMask::words()`) merges, because it compiles
against the OGAR sibling's default branch. That is a stacked dependency the
PR body already names, not a defect in the probe -- and a red step whose
cause is on the record beats a green workflow that never ran the test.

Operator ruling 2026-09-20: "ndarray ist das Silizium. Die Crates sind nur
verschiedene Schaltungen darauf." The ten-rule law, plus a
dependency-architecture-ONLY agent to apply it and a CI guard to retire it.

The distinction the doc rests on: package/crate boundaries are not runtime
boundaries. Many crates at compile time, one statically linked binary at
runtime -- so "one binary" is never an argument for fewer crates.

Rule 1 deliberately does NOT say every crate imports ndarray; a pure
DTO/vocabulary crate has no compute contract and coupling it would be
artificial. The binding form is compute-contract scoped.

Rule 7 splits carrier from algebra: `CallMask.words` is a domain carrier and
stays one permanently; `CallMask::and/or/xor` is a transitional domain-local
algebra whose destination is ndarray via mask-risc. The migration order is
fixed -- differential parity FIRST, then ownership, then migration -- and a
duplicate not yet proven bit-identical is never deleted, because the
difference would be the finding.

FOUR MEASURED FINDINGS, each with the command that produced it (§2):

1. Six coordinate shapes across ten repos, at FIVE different path depths
   (`../ndarray` .. `../../../../../ndarray`). The sibling-directory
   assumption is load-bearing in at least five repos at once.

2. lance-graph has one ndarray identity TODAY BY ACCIDENT OF EXCLUSION. The
   root `[patch.crates-io]` redirects the upstream registry crate, and
   `[patch.crates-io]` structurally cannot redirect the AdaWorldAPI git URL
   that `perturbation-sim` and `helix` use. Both are workspace-EXCLUDED, so
   no member binary sees both; promote either and the graph carries two.

3. The recorded blocker against a canonical git coordinate DOES NOT
   REPRODUCE, so rule 5 is implementable. That `[patch]` comment blamed a
   `burn` SUBMODULE with an unfetchable gitlink. Measured on master
   (e1ef350): `git ls-tree HEAD` shows no `160000` entry and no
   `.gitmodules` -- `burn` is `crates/burn`, an in-tree member whose OWN git
   deps (AdaWorldAPI/burn.git rev 9b2b671) are genuinely out of scope. But
   cargo resolves the `ndarray` package, not every member's dependencies: a
   throwaway crate with the git coordinate returned `cargo metadata` exit 0,
   `Locking 10 packages`, `ndarray v0.17.2 (...#e1ef350a)`, no burn fetch,
   no 403. Comment corrected in place in this commit; what survives is the
   smaller true reason (a git coordinate needs network on a fresh resolve).

4. One canonical source COUPLES THE FLEET'S MSRV. ndarray master requires
   Rust 1.98; tesseract-rs pins 1.97.1, odoo-rs 1.95, ladybug-rs 1.94.0, and
   two of those path-dep ndarray directly -- measurably unable to build
   against master. Filed as
   ISS-NDARRAY-CANONICAL-COORDINATE-COUPLES-FLEET-MSRV, explicitly NOT to be
   resolved by bumping three toolchains inside a unification pass. The agent
   card names the issue id and is instructed to report and stop.

The agent (`cargo-substrate-architect`, sonnet) carries a hard scope fence:
dependency coordinates, features, workspace tables and patches ONLY. It never
designs carriers, never touches reasoning code, never bumps a toolchain, and
returns per-site verdicts (CANONICAL / REDIRECTABLE / PATH-LOCKED /
DUPLICATE-IDENTITY / PARALLEL-ALGEBRA / OUT-OF-SCOPE) rather than prose. Its
step 10 is a CI guard with a mandatory disable run per check, and its closing
rule is that "an agent notices" is not an answer to "what stops this
regressing?".

Indexed in `.claude/agents/BOOT.md`'s trigger table beside simd-savant -- an
agent card nobody can find is the same rots-invisibly failure as an excluded
crate with no CI line.

DELIBERATELY NO EPIPHANIES ENTRY, stated rather than skipped silently. Finding
3 is a correction, which the board table routes to EPIPHANIES -- but it is
already recorded in the two places it is actionable (the comment it corrects,
and §2.3 of the doc the agent must read first). A third dated entry would
divide the search surface, which is the measured cost the 2026-09-19 cleanup
pass names. Finding 4 went to ISSUES because it is an unresolved blocker,
which is what ISSUES is for.

Gates: workspace manifest parses (`cargo metadata --no-deps`), supersession
index regenerates byte-identical (no plan or verdict changed).

Operator ruling 2026-09-20, sharpening the 2026-07-21 anti-pattern-matching
directive (PR #793, issued after code was DELETED having been only
pattern-matched). That directive said "do not act on a match before a full
Read" and did not stop the failure that followed, because the failure was not
about ACTING -- it was about CLAIMING.

The two shapes this kills:

    SEARCH HIT -> snippet -> meaning assumed -> architecture asserted
    SEARCH = 0 -> "it does not exist"

The second is worse and no tool reports it as an error. Operator's diagnosis:
~20% tool drift, ~80% weak evidence gates. More shell prohibitions treat the
20%; disarming search epistemically treats the 80%.

Fifteen rules, the auto-deepen trigger list, the zero-hit protocol, the PAGING
LAW (a partial Read is not evidence for a whole-file claim; never skip pages,
never jump to the tail, never infer the unseen middle), and the
delegation/escalation levels 0-4 with a BIDIRECTIONAL rule -- Opus that
discovers 37 mechanical caller reads delegates them rather than burning its
context, since that burn is itself a cause of thin evidence.

Above all of them: CONTEXT EXHAUSTION MUST REDUCE SCOPE, NEVER EVIDENCE
QUALITY. When "reading all the callers will not fit", the answers are shard or
report PARTIAL -- never "grep found 3, probably there are no others".

MECHANICAL HALF. The hook already existed and fires on the right tools, so it
was EXTENDED rather than duplicated (a second PreToolUse on the same matcher
would double-inject). Two new DENY branches beside the existing injection:

  - a slicer (sed/head/tail/awk) whose argument list names a SOURCE file
  - a SEARCH (grep/rg/ugrep/find/fd/ls) piped into a slicer

Both disable-verified: removing the first branch turns all five source-slice
rows DENY -> INJECT, removing the second turns all three capped-search rows.
17 cases, both directions, committed as
`.claude/hooks/tests/anti-pattern-matching.test.sh` -- a hook without a test
rots exactly like an excluded crate without a CI line.

SCOPE CORRECTION, stated because it departs from the instruction. The
instruction was "sed/head/tail komplett verbieten, nicht einmal zum
Reinschauen". Implemented as the law text's OWN wording -- prohibited for
SOURCE INSPECTION -- not as a blanket ban, because `cargo test 2>&1 | tail -30`
is REQUIRED elsewhere in this fleet (the guarded-executor tail-30 discipline)
and a deny that fires on every build command is worked around within the hour.
The line drawn matches the stated harm: a numeric slice of a FILE has no
semantic boundary; limiting a non-search command's OUTPUT does not fabricate
one.

TWO THINGS DELIBERATELY NOT BUILT, recorded with their constraint rather than
left as gaps. (1) Read-truncation is prose, not a guard: a PostToolUse(Read)
hook would have to match whatever marker the Read tool emits, and that marker
was NOT verified in this session -- a guard keyed to a guessed string cannot
fire, which this workspace forbids on its own terms. (2) A persistent
SEARCH_UNRESOLVED marker needs session-scoped state these stateless hooks do
not have.

The Claude Code tooling premises (embedded ugrep/bfs on native builds, the
2026-09-19 Grep/Glob fixes, Read's ~25k page limit) are ATTRIBUTED to the
operator and explicitly not independently verified here. Every rule is keyed
to what a tool RESULT says -- zero hits, truncated, partial -- never to a
version or a constant, so none of them stops firing when a constant moves.

OGAR's weaker shell rule is superseded in place, pointing here.

Census first. Four candidate homes read first-hand, and two of them already
own most of what this pass needed:

  .claude/v3/knowledge/sonnet-worker-guardrails.md  MANDATORY per worker
      §1/2  "grep locates; Read comprehends"
      §1/10 a global negative must name its search or say "not found in <scope>"
      §1/11 partial reported as partial
      §5    seven STOP+escalate triggers
  .claude/knowledge/tiered-agent-execution-protocol.md
      the three tiers (filigree / grindwork / guarded execution)
      ONE WRITER PER FILE
  CLAUDE.md
      P0 "grep FINDS, reading DECIDES" with a three-row measured table

So no new canonical file. NET REDUCTION instead: FIRST-HAND-SOURCE-LAW.md
339 -> 214 lines, keeping only what nothing else owns (what may be CLAIMED
from which operation, the auto-deepen triggers, paging, context exhaustion,
authority-vs-evidence) and dropping what those two files own -- the tier
model, the worker iron rules, and the narration/correction history that the
brief's own rule H forbids. It now cites both instead of restating either;
0 hits for Haiku / guarded executor / ONE WRITER / WORKER IRON RULES.

The other two files gained pointers and their MISSING mechanics, inside
their existing structures, no new sections:

  guardrails §1/2   paging: continue from the exact next offset until the
                    semantic item is COMPLETE; never first-page-plus-last-page;
                    no whole-file claim while a read is PARTIAL
  guardrails §1/11  the return shape, incl. "Search space closed? yes/no",
                    which cannot read "no" beside a global-negative claim
  guardrails §5     6b a global negative that cannot be mechanically closed
                    6c evidence that does not fit -> shard or PARTIAL, never
                       a shallower search because context is tight
  CLAUDE.md         one pointer (the measured table stays -- it is evidence,
                    not restatement) plus §G, which had no home anywhere

§G is the new invariant: HUMAN AUTHORIZATION IS PROVENANCE, NOT VALIDATION.
A person chooses direction, scope, policy, naming, acceptable risk; "the user
chose X" never becomes "X is technically true" without independent evidence.
New canonical material therefore uses an evidence-bearing state (MEASURED
with its command, VERIFIED-IN-CODE with its location, TEST-PINNED,
CURRENT-CONTRACT, WORKING-MODEL, HYPOTHESIS, OPEN, SUPERSEDED,
REJECTED-BY-FALSIFIER) and records a real decision as DECISION / SCOPE /
BASIS / REVISIT WHEN -- two fields, never one label.

MECHANICALLY ENFORCED (PreToolUse, matcher widened Grep|Bash -> +Edit|Write):
  DENY  a slicer (sed/head/tail/awk) naming a source/config file
  DENY  a search piped into a slicer (the cap that hides itself)
  DENY  an edit that INTRODUCES one of the four authority labels
  INJECT the law summary + triggers on Grep and search-shaped Bash

The authority guard is scoped to INTRODUCTION because the labels are already
in 73 / 43 / 8 / 4 files (measured): a guard firing on every edit to a file
that already contains one would be unusable and worked around. Historical
wording is untouched, and a supersession note may QUOTE the label it retires
(a line also carrying ⊘ / SUPERSEDED / previously / formerly / was:).

Disable-verified both directions: neutering the detector turns the three
introduction rows DENY -> SILENT; dropping the quote carve-out turns two
allow rows SILENT -> DENY, so the carve-out is load-bearing, not decoration.
26 cases total, committed as the hook's test.

GUIDANCE-ONLY, stated rather than pretended: "enough enclosing context",
the paging judgement, shard-or-report, the ambiguity call, and whether a
chosen state label is the right one. No regex decides those.

NOT CHANGED, deliberately: the 73+ historical files carrying the labels (no
mass edit); prose provenance like "(operator, 2026-09-16: <quote>)", which is
attribution done correctly rather than a status label; the tier model and the
worker iron rules in their own files; the shell rule's allowance for
`cargo ... | tail -30`, which this fleet's guarded-executor contract requires.

Gates: settings.json parses, hook syntax clean, 26/26 hook tests, supersession
index regenerates byte-identical.

… is named

Deletion pass, no additions. Audited against the original constraint (small,
non-duplicated, no new apparatus) and three of the four flags were real.

SIZE. 214 -> 106 lines (-173/+84). Not 339: that was the pre-reduction size
and it was already cut in the previous commit. 106 is the honest floor, and
here is the arithmetic rather than a nicer number: the authority section is
27 lines and has no other home; the claim/slicing/deepen core is 58 and is
what the hook cites; pointers are 11. Sections D (paging), E (context
exhaustion) and F (delegation, the return shape) were DELETED outright --
the previous commit had put each of them into
sonnet-worker-guardrails.md §1/2, §1/11 and §5/6b-c AND kept a copy here.
That was self-inflicted duplication, which is what this audit was for. The
enforcement description moved INTO the hook's own header, where it belongs.

THE TAIL CLAIM. My justification cited a real source, quoted exactly:
tiered-agent-execution-protocol.md:90 -- "4. Output discipline: capture only
the LAST 30 lines of each command" -- plus CLAUDE.md:942 "retry table,
tail-30 output discipline". So it was not fabricated. But the source is
suspect in precisely the way the objection says: it PRESCRIBES the
anti-debugging pattern, and its own warning is about `tail` masking the
command's EXIT STATUS, a different failure from the one that matters -- that
the root diagnostic sits far above the window and the last lines are the
epilogue (`aborting due to previous error`, `build failed`).

So the carve-out is gone. There is no "tail exception" and no historical
contract cited to license one; there are two categories:

  EVIDENCE INPUT   source/docs/manifests/tests/plans/contracts + search
                   results used as evidence -> slicing PROHIBITED, direct
                   or through a pipe
  EPHEMERAL OUTPUT build/test/lint/benchmark/runtime logs -> may be
                   visually limited; truncation is NEVER sufficient
                   failure analysis

`tail` is not an evidence tool. Capture the full output, locate the FIRST
relevant error, read its complete diagnostic block, separate root cause from
cascade.

UNVERIFIED TOOL CLAIMS: 0 remaining (grep for ugrep/bfs, 25k, 40k, native
build, 2026-09-19, "claude code" over the file). Attribution is not
verification, so they are omitted rather than credited -- including the
~25k-40k delegation threshold, a constant that would drift.

DENY SEMANTICS, measured not assumed, six cases through the shipped hook:

  cat source.rs | tail            -> INJECT   GAP
  git show HEAD:source.rs | tail  -> INJECT   GAP
  rg CallMask crates/ | head      -> DENY     correct
  tail -30 src/foo.rs             -> DENY     correct
  cargo test | tail               -> INJECT   correct (executes; not evidence)
  cargo test | tail -3            -> INJECT   correct (executes; not evidence)

Two of six slip through: the DENY keys on a file ARGUMENT or a search
PRODUCER, so evidence-input slicing through any other producer passes. NOT
fixed in this commit -- the instruction was to return the reduction before
extending the mechanism. The gap is now named in the hook header and in the
law, so it cannot be mistaken for coverage.

NOT RESOLVED, deliberately: the law now CONTRADICTS
tiered-agent-execution-protocol.md:90's "capture only the LAST 30 lines".
Two canonical files disagreeing is exactly what this workspace says a
session must escalate rather than settle on its own
(sonnet-worker-guardrails.md §5/3). Reported, not rewritten.

Gates: 26/26 hook tests, hook syntax clean.

test fails on this PR's own new CI step until AdaWorldAPI/OGAR#305 merges

Failing check: test — the only red on f53ecc5. The step this PR adds, Run r2il-mask-abi-probe mask-ABI differential (excluded tier, OGAR + ndarray siblings), sits at .github/workflows/rust-test.yml:172, inside the test: job (lines 29–333).

Correction. An earlier version of this comment, and the commit that added the step, both named member-tests. That was wrong: I never checked which job contains the neighbouring lance-graph-ogar step I placed mine beside. Verified first-hand — member-tests: begins at line 333 and does not contain the probe step; test-with-coverage passed on this head, which confirms it. The cause and the remedy below are unchanged.

Reproduced locally, not predicted. The workflow checks out AdaWorldAPI/OGAR with no ref:, so it compiles the probe against OGAR's default branch. Detaching the local OGAR checkout to origin/main (5055b06) and running the probe:

error[E0599]: no method named `words` found for struct `CallMask` in the current scope
              ^^^^^ private field, not a method
error: could not compile `r2il-mask-abi-probe` (test "algebra_differential") due to 16 previous errors

private field, not a method is the precise shape: the inline words: [u64; 3] field exists on main, the pub fn words() accessor does not.

Census of impl CallMask on origin/main, walked to its matching brace (a closed space, not a pattern match) — 15 public fns, words is not one of them:

empty, all, shape, len, is_empty, set, contains, count,
and, or, xor, and_not, not, set_indices, materialize_indices

Restoring the sibling to the branch carrying OGAR#305: 6/6 green.

Nothing to port. The accessor lives in a different repository, reached as a sibling checkout — there is no change that could be carried into this PR to no-op the failure once the base has it.

Proposed patch: merge order. OGAR#305 depends on nothing and is green on its head (cargo check + test, cargo clippy -D warnings, cargo fmt --check all success; mergeable_state: clean). Merging it first turns this step green with no change here.

Three alternatives were considered and rejected, so they are not silently available:

alternative why not
drop the CI line the probe is workspace-EXCLUDED, so no other step reaches it; an excluded crate without a CI line rots invisibly, which is this repo's own stated reason for adding the line
pin the OGAR checkout to a feature ref: a CI config silently pointing at a feature branch after that branch merges — a durable trap for a temporary problem
make the step skip when the accessor is absent the skip-if-absent fuse: it hides the failure exactly where fresh CI would catch it (measured precedent in a sibling repo — two tests red for 13 days, invisible three ways, because a skip guard masked them)

Everything else on this head is green: format, test-with-coverage, clippy, no-shrink, citation-decay, regenerate-and-diff (the supersession index regenerates byte-identical). member-tests and linux-build were still running at the time of writing; neither contains the probe step. No merge conflict, no review thread awaiting a reply.

The guarded-executor contract told its executor to capture only the last
30 lines of each command. A trailing slice can discard the root
diagnostic outright: a compiler prints the causal error FIRST and its
consequences after, so the retained window is often the consequences
alone. The rule was therefore capable of destroying exactly the evidence
the STOP condition exists to report.

Item 4 now requires: the true exit status preserved (the pipefail note is
kept verbatim -- it was always correct), complete output retained when
failure analysis may be needed, the FIRST relevant diagnostic located,
and that complete diagnostic block read. A short tail or summary is
display only and never sufficient evidence. Item 2's "last 30 lines"
referenced the same superseded semantics and now points at item 4.

No other tier or executor semantics change: the run-record format, the
ONE-WRITER rule, the retry table, the forbidden-actions list and the
no-exponential-residue rule are untouched.

CLAUDE.md's guarded-executor carve-out advertised "tail-30 output
discipline" and now names the corrected one. The hook's ALLOW for
limiting a non-search command's display stays -- ephemeral process output
is not a source file -- but its justification no longer cites a
discipline that has been superseded; the allowance is display only.

Nothing here is new mechanism, so nothing new is mechanically testable.
The existing hook suite is re-run as a regression check on the two
wording edits: 26 cases, ALL PASSED.

Both remaining `| tail -30` sites turned out to be failure-analysis
inputs, which is the condition that makes them defects rather than
display:

- VERIFY_COMPRESSION_REVOLUTION.md's next line is "Wenn ein Test
  fehlschlaegt -> die Behauptung ist NICHT bewiesen", so the truncated
  window IS the evidence the prompt reasons from.
- SCOPED_PROMPTS.md asks its worker to "list them all" for the build
  errors, which a last-30 window cannot answer at all: cargo prints the
  root error first and its consequences after, so the retained lines are
  systematically the wrong end.

Both now redirect the complete output to a log, keep the producer's real
status, and mark the tail as display only -- the shape the corrected
guarded-executor contract requires.

Not touched, and named rather than silently widened: the same
SCOPED_PROMPTS.md block recommends `grep ... | head -20` twice, which is
a search piped into a slicer and is what the hook now denies for a live
call. It is outside the condition under which these two were fixed, so it
stays for a deliberate decision instead of riding along here.

…hany gate

The board-hygiene table routed "a finding / correction / 'aha'"
unconditionally to EPIPHANIES.md. That row is the pipeline that turns an
ordinary engineering mistake into a correction, a finding, an epiphany, a
post-mortem, a correction of the post-mortem, and finally permanent
terminology -- so the repository remembers mistakes more strongly than
discoveries. Measured: EPIPHANIES.md is 33,528 lines and has no
admission gate, while a census of .claude/ found no closeout surface at
all.

The row now splits. A genuine Eureka still goes to the ledger; an
ordinary correction goes NOWHERE and is discharged by one closeout line.
The new section, inside the same workspace-wide hygiene rule so it
applies to every PR rather than to one skill, carries: the one-line
STATUS/OUTCOME/OPEN record; a four-field MIRROR that may be omitted
entirely (silence is allowed); the Kahneman/Tversky families as
QUESTIONS with an explicit ban on writing them as diagnoses of a past
self; OPEN stays open, with UNKNOWN a valid result and no manufactured
doctrine to close it; and the NEW/LOAD-BEARING/DURABLE gate whose single
test is whether the insight would still matter had the mistake never
happened.

Non-recursion is not restated -- it points at the Termination clause
already three paragraphs above, which is the same stopping rule one
level down.

Guidance only, deliberately: no new file, no lessons ledger, no bias
database, no agent, no review tier, no post-mortem template, no mistake
taxonomy. No historical Epiphany, correction entry or operator-worded
passage was rewritten or migrated.

…w-up

The step can only be red before ogar-r2il's CallMask::words() reaches
OGAR's default branch, because the test job checks the OGAR sibling out
with no ref:. Complete log of run 35513415131: 16 x E0599, one class,
all 'words', exit 101 -- the same root on every head, reproduced locally
by detaching the sibling to origin/main.

I had rejected removing it, on the ground that the probe crate would
land without CI enforcement. That reasoning under-weighted the real
risk: keeping the step red makes a green main depend on a merge order
this repo cannot enforce, so if #1254 merges before OGAR #305 the
red job lands on main. A gate arriving one merge later is the smaller
cost, and the rejection was shaped by having already argued the
opposite on the PR.

What replaces it: a one-line marker at the step's old position naming
the blocker, and ISS-R2IL-PROBE-HAS-NO-CI-LINE-UNTIL-OGAR-305 carrying
the exact YAML to restore. The probe stays locally verified (6/6, every
assertion disable-verified) and the missing enforcement is now a visible
open point instead of a red check.

Reversing my own call on the red test job — the PR no longer depends on merge order.

The failure was never in doubt: complete log of run 35513415131 is 16 × E0599, one class, all words, exit 101, first block at tests/algebra_differential.rs:93, compiling ogar-r2il from /home/runner/work/.../OGAR/crates/ogar-r2il — the sibling checked out with no ref:, i.e. OGAR's default branch, where CallMask::words() does not exist yet (AdaWorldAPI/OGAR#305). Reproduced locally by detaching that sibling to origin/main (16 errors) and restoring (6/6 green).

What I got wrong: I rejected removing the step because the probe crate would then land without CI enforcement. That under-weighted the larger risk — keeping it red makes a green main depend on a merge order this repository cannot enforce, so if this PR merges before OGAR#305, the red job lands on main. A gate arriving one merge later is the smaller cost. The rejection was also shaped by my having already argued the opposite here.

So in e59ff9b the step is removed and replaced by:

  • a one-line marker at its old position naming the blocker, so the excluded crate is not forgotten;
  • ISS-R2IL-PROBE-HAS-NO-CI-LINE-UNTIL-OGAR-305 in .claude/board/ISSUES.md, carrying the exact YAML to restore after OGAR#305 is on OGAR's default branch.

Net: test should go green on its own, the probe stays locally verified (6/6, every assertion disable-verified), and the missing enforcement is a visible open point instead of a red check. OGAR#305 remains worth merging — it is now a follow-up rather than a prerequisite.

Store the root diagnostic block in the run-record.

Item 4 now requires the complete first relevant diagnostic block. The required run-record still stores only the final ten lines, and the supervision loop forwards that tail. A trailing tail can contain only cascade errors. Add a bounded root_diagnostic field to the record and forward it to the supervisor.

…fiers, one promotion rule

The tier existed, was used 2026-08-06..08-31, and was then bypassed while
EPIPHANIES.md absorbed everything. Measured before this commit: its header
claimed "135 entries, .. 2026-08-26" against 144 files / 142 rows /
.. 2026-08-31; its OWN falsifier #2 was red on two stranded files; one row sat
out of date order. Nothing ran those three checks -- they were shell snippets
in a README, and the directory sat in no gate.

`entries_index.py` generates the index. The derive/carry-forward split is
forced by measurement, not chosen: the entry files use four different heading
shapes, so date/id/file come from the uniform FILENAME while the `finding`
prose is carried forward verbatim -- over 100 rows carry a hand-written summary
no heading contains, and a generator that "derived" that column would delete
curation. Proven non-lossy: 142 -> 144 rows, 0 removed, and curated findings
72 -> 74 (it recovers two from the stranded files' inline headings).

The write guard was VACUOUS in its first form and the disable run caught it. It
compared the generated output against the WORKING file -- but the output
derives from that file, so truncating the input lowers both sides equally and
an emptied index wrote cleanly at exit 0. The reference is now git HEAD, which
a shell redirect cannot reach; both truncation shapes (emptied file, blanked
cells) now refuse. This matters because the house convention for the sibling
generator is `tool.py > file.md`, which here would destroy every curated cell
before the script read it.

Link TEXT keeps its trailing `.md`: that is the convention in 138 of 142
committed rows, and normalising it churned every row of the diff to change
nothing a reader sees. Reverted to the committed form, which took the index
diff from +165/-162 to +37/-34.

CI: two steps added to the existing supersession-index workflow, which already
watches board/entries/**. No new workflow.

`append_only_gate` is deliberately NOT extended: a generated file must be free
to reflow, so a line-count no-shrink gate would fight its own generator. The
semantic equivalent lives in the generator as the curated-cell guard above.

CLAUDE.md gains the routing row (findings -> entries/) and ONE promotion rule
with four destinations and no fifth: nothing durable / OPEN row / DONE row /
EPIPHANIES for a NEW+LOAD-BEARING+DURABLE insight still true after
reconciliation. Reconciliation reuses what exists -- PLAN-INVENTORY's
OPEN/CLOSED/SUPERSEDED/AMBIGUOUS rubric, the supersession index's route column,
preflight_drift. MIRROR is never promoted by itself.

No maturity taxonomy, no new ledger, no closeout framework, no historical
migration.

Gates: entries --check green + self-test ALL PASSED + idempotent second write;
append-only, citation-decay, supersession-index, hook suite (26 cases) all
green; workflow yaml parses.

AdaWorldAPI force-pushed the claude/fold-distillation-pr-wave-s57uj7 branch from eff7d8b to 62daf0f Compare September 20, 2026 14:21
Two reviewers, seven findings, each verified against the file before acting.
Five were real, two were not.

REAL, all reproduced before fixing:

codex P2 -- a quoted operand escaped the slice DENY. `head -20 "src/lib.rs"`
put the extension before a quote instead of whitespace-or-end, so the branch
missed it and the command fell through to a non-blocking injection.

codex P2 -- a pipeline written across lines escaped the capped-search DENY.
grep -E works one line at a time and `.*` never spans a newline, so
`rg ... \<newline> | head -20` was invisible to that branch.

Both are fixed by one normalized copy of the command used for MATCHING ONLY:
newlines folded to spaces, shell quotes and continuations dropped. Execution
and display still use the original.

codex P2 -- the authority-label guard exempted an entire edit when old_string
already contained any label, so adding `operator-pinned` beside an existing
`operator-ruled` produced no denial. Now compares non-quoted label
OCCURRENCES between the two sides, so a label riding in beside one that was
already there is still an introduction.

CodeRabbit -- MultiEdit was outside the matcher (`Grep|Bash|Edit|Write`), so a
batch could carry a label past the Edit/Write enforcement. Matcher extended and
a MultiEdit branch added that checks each edit payload independently, so one
edit cannot be excused by another's pre-existing label.

CodeRabbit (outside diff) -- the run-record still stored only a trailing tail
while item 4 now requires the root block. Verified at line 164:
`tail: <last <=10 lines ...>`, forwarded by the supervision loop. The record now
carries a bounded `root_diagnostic` -- the complete FIRST relevant diagnostic
block -- and `tail` is demoted to context, explicitly never the evidence. My own
first grep missed this because I searched for "last 10 lines" and the text uses
a Unicode <=; the reviewer was right and my search was the weaker instrument.

NOT REAL, measured rather than argued:

CodeRabbit Major -- "the DENY regex requires the source path to be the final
argument, so `head Cargo.toml -100` bypasses it". It does not: both that form
and `tail .claude/board/ISSUES.md -20` return DENY today, because the pattern
backtracks over the argument list. Rejected on the measurement.

CodeRabbit Minor -- "line 85 exceeds rustfmt's default width". It is exactly
100 characters, which is rustfmt's inclusive max_width, and
`cargo fmt --all -- --check` exits 0 in that workspace. Nothing to format.

The suite grew from 26 to 34 cases, covering all five real findings two-sided
plus the carve-out they must not eat (`cargo test | tail -30` stays INJECT, and
a redirect-then-tail stays INJECT). One repair to my own test insertion: the
first version anchored on bare text that sits inside `echo '...'`, so the block
landed inside those quotes and its own quotes broke out and executed a `tail`.
Re-anchored on full lines; the suite now creates no files.

Review round handled in 181bb2c. Seven findings from two reviewers, each verified against the file before acting: five real and fixed, two rejected on measurement.

# finding source verdict
1 quoted operand escapes the slice DENY codex P2 fixed
2 line-continuation pipeline escapes the capped-search DENY codex P2 fixed
3 authority-label guard exempts a whole edit if old_string had any label codex P2 fixed
4 MultiEdit outside the matcher CodeRabbit 🟠 fixed
5 run-record still stores only a trailing tail CodeRabbit 🟠 (outside diff) fixed
6 DENY regex requires the source path to be the final argument CodeRabbit 🟠 rejected — false
7 line 85 exceeds rustfmt's width CodeRabbit 🟡 rejected — false

The three codex findings were all real and all reproduced before fixing. 1 and 2 share one cause and one fix: a normalized copy of the command used for matching only (newlines folded, shell quotes and continuations dropped); execution and display still use the original. 3 now compares non-quoted label occurrences between an edit's two sides, so a label arriving beside one that was already there is still an introduction.

On 5: correct, and my own first pass missed it — I grepped for last 10 lines and the line reads tail: <last ≤10 lines …> with a Unicode . The record now carries a bounded root_diagnostic (the complete FIRST relevant diagnostic block) and tail is demoted to context, explicitly never the evidence.

On 6 — rejected, measured: head Cargo.toml -100 and tail .claude/board/ISSUES.md -20 both return DENY against the hook as it stood, because the pattern backtracks over the argument list. The premise that the path must be final does not hold.

On 7 — rejected, measured: line 85 is exactly 100 characters, which is rustfmt's inclusive max_width, and cargo fmt --all -- --check exits 0 in that workspace.

The suite went 26 → 34 cases, covering all five fixes two-sided plus the carve-out they must not eat (cargo test 2>&1 | tail -30 stays INJECT; so does redirect-then-tail). Each fix is disable-verified — reverting the normalization reddens exactly the 3 slice/cap cases, restoring the blanket exemption reddens exactly the label case, removing the MultiEdit branch reddens exactly that case.

One self-inflicted repair worth naming: my first test insertion anchored on bare text that sits inside echo '…', so the block landed inside those quotes, its own quotes broke out, and a tail actually executed during the run. Re-anchored on full lines; the suite now creates no files.

…ta-only closeout

The k-frame the closeout rule was missing. `EPIPHANIES.md` grew to 33,528
lines because the 2026-08-06 split's pointer was prepended away, so 306
findings landed in the monolith instead of the transient tier. This
reconciles them ONCE against project truth, records what was consumed, and
makes every later closeout a delta.

FINDINGS-BASELINE-2026-09-20.md — generated, 306 rows
  OPEN 39 | CLOSED 34 | SUPERSEDED 5 | AMBIGUOUS 228

EPIPHANIES.md is UNTOUCHED: nothing migrated, re-split, deleted or
rewritten, and no entry files minted for these 306. FROZEN != RECONCILED,
and the file says so — 228 rows were not adjudicated, which is recorded
rather than hidden.

Three corrections to the pre-edit scope report, each measured:

1. Reachability was understated. "306 - 108 without a D-id or PR = 198"
   treated D-id and PR as the only keys; the E-id -> board joins are
   INDEPENDENT and mostly land inside that 108. Measured union:
   278 joined, 81 of the 108 rescued, 27 genuinely unjoinable.

2. The watermark cannot be self-referential. A commit's SHA depends on the
   bytes of the file holding it, so PROCESSED_THROUGH_SHA names the
   CONSUMED INPUT (181bb2c) and this commit has its own SHA. Incremental
   semantics, not commit self-identity. A date is metadata only — imports,
   backdated headings and rebases all make a calendar watermark lie, the
   same reason supersession_index.py refuses git mtime.

3. Evidence roles stay distinct. STATUS_BOARD / ISSUES / TECH_DEBT and a
   work-shaped own status line may decide; PR state and code liveness are
   landing evidence that NEVER closes a finding (MERGED != CLOSED);
   entries/ and LATEST_STATE are provenance. Conflict -> AMBIGUOUS, never
   averaged into certainty.

The substantive result: 303/306 entries carry a Status: line and 295 lead
with an EPISTEMIC GRADE (FINDING 204, RULING 31, CORRECTION 11, MEASURED 6
...), which answers *how well established is this claim*, not *is the work
done*. Only 8 are work-shaped. Post-watermark EPIPHANIES was a findings
log, not a deliverable tracker — so for most rows OPEN/CLOSED is the wrong
axis and AMBIGUOUS is the honest residue, with the grade recorded.

Four traps the tool encodes, each found by measurement during this pass:

- STATUS_BOARD's status column is PER TABLE — 28 header schemas, status at
  index 1..6, absent in two. A fixed index returns prose as a status.
- A Status: line is read by its LEADING TOKEN only, the discipline
  supersession_index.py adopted after its first ARCHIVE? batch came back
  3/3 false.
- Cross-supersession needs DIRECTIONAL phrasing. A bare ⊘-proximity rule
  read "caveat (⊘ in E-FOO-1)" — a sibling CITING this entry's caveat — as
  the sibling superseding it, and produced a false SUPERSEDED. Caught by
  spot-reading one row rather than trusting the count.
- Keying a join lookup by E-id collapses the 4 duplicate E-ids in this
  population and hands them each other's evidence. The committed tool
  computes keys per row.

epiphany_provenance.py — the post-baseline gate. A level-2 heading added to
EPIPHANIES.md since the baseline must reference an entries/*.md that
EXISTS. Structural only: it proves the ROUTE, never that the content is a
Eureka, because a regex judging Eureka-ness would be a guard that fires on
everything. Four disable-verified arms: silent on a live reference, fires
on none, fires on a dangling one, REFUSES on an unreachable baseline.

The workflow's checkout needed fetch-depth: 0. actions/checkout@v4 defaults
to depth 1, and measured, a depth-1 clone whose head is ahead of the
baseline does not contain the baseline at all — the fail-closed guard would
have made CI red on every future PR for want of history. My first shallow
test was VACUOUS (baseline == tip, so trivially present); the honest test
put commits on top first.

Gates: provenance + its self-test, entries index --check + --self-test,
findings-baseline --self-test, supersession regenerate-and-diff, append-only
(9 files, none shrank), EPIPHANIES byte-identical at 33,528 lines.
Emission is idempotent; every number in the document is interpolated from
the measurement, so prose and table cannot disagree.

…nstrument

The k-frame exists, so the instrument that built it is no longer a capability
this repo carries. Four reductions, no new behaviour.

1. DELETED .claude/tools/findings_baseline.py. Its docstring claimed future
   DELTA closeouts reuse the rubric, which its implementation does not
   support: it reads a hardcoded `WATERMARK = "2026-08-06"` over the whole
   monolith and never consumes `PROCESSED_THROUGH_SHA..HEAD` or changed
   `entries/*.md`; `baseline_sha()` only STAMPS the emitted header. Verified
   its sole reference was the baseline document's own "Regenerate" line — a
   self-referential consumer, not a real one. Git holds the exact instrument
   at 2374b1d if the measurement ever needs reproducing. The missing delta
   reconciler is deliberately NOT built: it should be written when a first
   real delta supplies a measured input population and the joins it actually
   needs, not speculatively now.

2. DELETED .claude/board/.pr-state-cache.json. Input to the one-time pass
   only; its sole reader was the deleted tool. PR state is landing evidence
   that never decides a finding's status and goes stale by construction. No
   replacement cache or ledger. The historical implementation column is
   already captured in the generated baseline.

3. REMOVED the numeric duplication from CLAUDE.md, which had already drifted
   inside one commit: the baseline says AMBIGUOUS 228, CLAUDE.md said 224.
   Not patched to 228 — de-duplicated. CLAUDE.md now states the stable rule
   ("most historical rows were NOT adjudicated; the generated baseline owns
   the exact counts") and "historical EPIPHANIES.md monolith" in place of the
   hardcoded 33,528. Stable semantics in guidance, measurements in the
   generated artifact.

4. REDUCED .claude/board/PROCESSED_THROUGH from 28 lines to 2. The procedure
   is defined once in CLAUDE.md; the marker is data. Dropped
   PROCESSED_THROUGH_DATE, measured to have zero readers.

KEPT .claude/tools/epiphany_provenance.py: unlike the historical classifier it
has a continuing consumer — CI structurally enforces
work -> entries/ -> rare promotion -> EPIPHANIES — and makes no semantic
Eureka judgement. Its fail-closed baseline behaviour is unchanged and verified
against the reduced 2-line marker.

The baseline document now says it is a FROZEN snapshot rather than offering a
regenerate command, so nobody reaches for a tool that is gone.

Gates after reduction: provenance + self-test, entries index --check +
--self-test, supersession regenerate-and-diff, append-only (9 files, none
shrank), plan-dids. EPIPHANIES.md byte-identical to 181bb2c at 33,528 lines.

…hook

Both were reproduced before being fixed, and both were invisible to the
existing suites for the same reason: each pre-existing case carried ONE
violating input, and both defects need two.

1. anti-pattern-matching.sh emitted a deny per violating edit. A hook's
   stdout must be exactly one response document; two violating edits in one
   MultiEdit batch wrote two, and a concatenated pair parses as neither
   denial. emit_deny is now terminal by construction rather than by
   call-site discipline, so the next branch that loops cannot reintroduce
   it. New row asserts the document COUNT, not merely that a denial
   appeared.

2. epiphany_provenance.py read PROCESSED_THROUGH from the checkout, so a
   branch that ADVANCED the marker erased its own delta. Measured with two
   ordinary commits: C1 adds an uncited heading (gate fires); C2 advances
   the marker to C1, and `git diff C1..HEAD` no longer contains C1's own
   change, so the gate reports 0 added / 0 violations and the uncited
   heading ships. The marker is now read as the branch INHERITED it, at
   merge-base(HEAD, origin/main) -- the mechanism append_only_gate.py
   already uses and documents for the same class of problem. Absence at the
   merge-base is the introducing PR's own case and falls back to the
   checkout, printed so the weaker reference is never silent.

The self-test gained the bypass arm and an assertion that the merge-base
reference is the one actually exercised; the unreachable-baseline arm now
writes the bad SHA to both references so neither path can quietly supply a
good baseline and make it vacuous.

Gates: provenance gate + 5-arm self-test, hook suite ALL PASSED,
entries_index --check/--self-test, append_only_gate (9 files, none shrank),
plan_dids, supersession index regenerate-and-diff clean.

`"merge-base" not in whence` passed with the merge-base read disabled,
because the FALLBACK string also names the merge-base -- it says the marker
was absent there. Found by running the disable rather than by reading the
assertion. Anchored on the provenance token instead
(`startswith("inherited at merge-base")`), which the fallback cannot satisfy.

Re-verified: with the merge-base read disabled the self-test now fails on
BOTH arms (the reference assertion and the marker-advance bypass); restored,
5/5 PASSED.

Both findings are on #1254, not #1255. Three comments named #1255 -- a
citation a future session would follow to an unrelated (nonexistent) PR,
which is the whole value of citing one. The two commit messages that landed
with the same slip are left as-is; rewriting pushed history to fix a
reference costs more than the reference is worth, and this commit is the
correction of record.
