Make the tree policy input correspond to the fact model: one acquisition, a real tracked, declared sources, lines, and a sink - #633
Conversation
CLOUD-849 `Fact::Document` is acquired at three sites with three different error mappings, and the fact model's own gate asserts five of its seven class pairings
Measured against
Three copies of one boundary, already diverged: site 1 cannot tell a non-UTF-8 file from a missing one, and its two siblings can. That is the shape CLOUD-647's evidence table counts elsewhere — "independently re-derived copies of the issue-key regex, already diverged in case-sensitivity: 9." There is nowhere to put a cache, a read budget, or a worker pool, which is why this is the first row of the retirement campaign rather than tidying. And the fact model's own gate asserts five of seven pairings.
Two arms can be repointed today with nothing going red. That is a live false green in the gate that guards the model, and it is specifically the one that would hide the wrong fix for the hook-body problem: repointing A third stale claim, in the module header at Acceptance

CLOUD-845 A module copied from `policy.rs`'s own doc passes `policy test` green and gates nothing: `input.tree.tracked` is documented, never built, and a `with input as` test fabricates the shape the engine cannot produce
Why Reproduced end to end against The reproduction
Two modules in one enabled bundle. One copied verbatim from that doc; one written against what Both tests pass. Only one predicate decides anything. Why, and both halves are needed to produce it1. serde_json::json!({ "tree": { "documents": …, "missing": … } })
2. Rego makes it silent. Iterating an undefined path yields nothing, so the rule body is undefined, so the 3. The safety net does fire in the narrow case, and that is worth recording because it shows the gap precisely. With no So CLOUD-835 and CLOUD-647's sweep catch no test. They do not catch a test against an impossible input — and the second is what an author following the doc will write, because they will copy the input shape from the same paragraph they copied the predicate from. Why this blocks the retirement rather than being tidy-upCLOUD-843's wave 1 is ~20 tree-scoped gates. Every agent doing one starts from The fix, in three parts

Correction 2026-08-21 — The fix section says "emit
So the source is two sources. For the working tree, A second false-green channel, on the same surface.
So a migrated gate can go silent-and-green by declaring a path with the wrong extension, exactly as it can by naming a field the engine never emits. Same failure, second road, same §8 is amended: CLOUD-850 A policy row cannot declare the files it reads: `documents` is literal-path only, excluded from the glob gate by construction, and re-read once per rule with no shared cache
A policy row cannot declare a glob, by construction — and the campaign it exists to serve is a migration of 82 bash gates, 27 of which open more than five files. Measured against The exclusion is deliberate and it is now load-bearing in the wrong direction
So The glob machinery already exists and is the right shape: What the bash actually needs, censused27 of the 82 Two long-tail findings matter more than the leaders:
Today each gate is its own process, so sharing a read is not possible. Port them into one engine and the shared read is the whole affordability argument — and it is exactly what And no gate would report the cost
Declaration is what makes the read set knowable, and knowable is what makes it parallelThe pieces are all in the tree. None of this is new machinery.
This lands on What this corrects in CLOUD-834 / PR #620#620 measured that projecting already-resolved facts into the policy input is free — Two consequences of #620 that this row must undo, both narrow:
Acceptance
Refinement — Ready (2026-08-21)
CLOUD-846 The tree surface parses four structured formats, so 12 of the 20 tree-scoped gates read content no fact can carry — markdown, bats, Rust source
Why
That is correct three-valued behaviour. It is also a hard ceiling on what can migrate, and the ceiling was never measured against the gates that have to cross it. Measured — the 20 tree-scoped gates, by what they readClassified 2026-08-21 on
So CLOUD-843's wave 1 is 8, not 20. The other 12 have no fact to decide over. The three "no file literals" gates partly resolve elsewhere: a tracked-path list would serve a predicate over which files exist, and that is CLOUD-845's first deliverable. They are listed here because their content half — What is actually missingA fact that carries unstructured content, and the honest question is which shape:
Lines is the recommendation, and the argument is rule 4 rather than convenience: it is the widest shape that cannot put file content into a finding by accident, because the module sees content but a Markdown is not a fifth parser. These four gates read tables and headings out of prose. Under a lines fact they are line predicates like the rest — adding a markdown AST would be a parser per prose convention and is not proposed.

validate_policy_sourceto coversources, not onlydocuments.
validate_policy_sourcerefusesdocumentson aMediatedCall-scoped policy row (line 1784) and refuses an unparseabledocumentsextension (line 1807), but never inspectsself.sources. Two consequences follow.First, a
MediatedCall-scoped policy row can still declaresources, even though the PR's own design intent states the selector behavior belongs only on the check surface. The row loads clean and the field is silently never read.Second,
sourcesglob syntax is never validated at load.declared_documents(Line 3127) does callSelector::new(pattern)?and does return aUsageErrorfor a malformed pattern, but both callers in this file discard that error:
acquire_declared(Line 3167):let Ok(declared) = declared_documents(rule, files) else { continue; };policy_rule(Line 3337):let Ok(declared) = declared_documents(rule, tracked) else { return Some(NotObserved::RuleSkipped); };So under
check/run_static/run_all, a malformedsourcespattern causes the rule to be silently skipped rather than raising a load-time config error. This directly contradictsacquire_declared's own comment, which states "a malformedsourcesglob is refused byvalidatebefore any rule evaluates" — no such check exists. It is also inconsistent withrun_policy_test(lib.rs), which propagates the same error fromdeclared_documentswith?and does raiseUsageError.

🌐 Web query:
Search the official Rust testing documentation for the default parallel execution of #[test] functions and the official cargo-nextest documentation for whether each test runs in a separate process or whether tests in one integration-test binary share a process.
💡 Result:
According to the official Rust documentation, the default behavior for #[test] functions is to run in parallel using threads within the same test binary process [1][2][3]. Users can change the number of threads using the --test-threads command-line argument, including setting it to 1 to run tests serially [1][2]. Regarding cargo-nextest, its fundamental execution model is process-per-test [4][5][6]. Unlike the standard cargo test, which runs multiple tests within the same shared process, cargo-nextest executes each individual test in a separate, dedicated process [4][7][5]. Consequently, tests within the same integration-test binary do not share a process when executed via cargo-nextest; each test runs in its own isolated process environment [4][7]. This model is the default and is currently the only supported execution mode in cargo-nextest [4][5][6].

Serialize the counter-sensitive tests under cargo test.
Under cargo test, both tests share the process-global DOCUMENTS_ACQUIRED counter. The glob test can increment it while the first test measures delta, causing a flaky failure. Combine the tests or add synchronization. cargo nextest isolates each test, but does not protect other cargo test runs.

…ssert all seven pairings `Fact::Document` was acquired at three sites — `tree_document`, `document_in_file`, `derive_one` — each with its own error mapping, and `facts.rs` itself does no I/O at all. The three had already diverged: site 1 used `fs::read_to_string` and could not tell a non-UTF-8 file from a missing one; its two siblings used `fs::read` plus an explicit `String::from_utf8` and could. That is the re-derived-copy shape CLOUD-647 counts elsewhere, and it left nowhere to put a cache, a read budget or a pool. `acquire_document` is now the one function that opens and parses a document, and `NotAcquired` states the mapping once in four arms that are four different remedies: `UnknownFormat` (the row declares a path this build can never parse — a config fault, decided before any I/O), `Absent`, `Unreadable` (EACCES/EISDIR/non-UTF-8) and `Unparsed`. Collapsing those is the second road a migrated gate can go silent-and-green down, so they are distinguished rather than merged. TWO VISIBLE BEHAVIOUR CHANGES, both toward what the siblings already did. The first is the point of the row: `tree_document` stops reporting a binary file and an absent one identically. The second is `document_in_file`'s — a non-ENOENT read error was `Err` and became exit 3, aborting the whole run over one row; it is a could-not-look finding now. A gate that cannot look reports rather than crashes, which is the posture `facts.rs`'s header already states. The gate keeps it one, on the source-level model `no_second_git_invoker_exists` set: `one_document_acquisition_exists` counts `format.read(` across crate sources and asserts exactly one, with its anti-vacuity half in the same function. Shown able to fail: a second `fs::read` + `Format::read` pair turns it red naming both sites. The needle is the PARSE rather than the read deliberately — `fs::read` has legitimate non-document callers here (`forbid_in_file`'s byte scan, the ratchet's pattern count), and every one of them would make a read-counting gate noisy or vacuous. `every_fact_returns_its_stated_const` asserted five of seven. `Document` and `AgentSourced` were absent, so two arms could be repointed with nothing going red — in the gate that guards the model, and specifically the pair that would hide the wrong fix for the eleven hook bodies that need to read files. It is a census over `Fact::ALL` behind an exhaustive wildcard-free match now, so an eighth variant fails to compile rather than joining unasserted; a list is what was already wrong here. AND THE CENSUS ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH, which was measured rather than reasoned. It compares `Class` VALUES, and `Class` is a pair — so repointing an arm at a different `const` carrying the same pair is invisible to it. Measured: `Fact::Stop => WAIVED` (both `Read` x `Hook`) left the entire cargo suite green, CLOUD-834's projection census included, because that one reads only the surface. `Read` x `Hook` holds five of the seven facts, so twenty repointings among them are value-identical and would each ship silently — a fact reading its class off a neighbour, correct only until that neighbour moves. `every_class_arm_names_its_own_const` closes it by asserting the NAME each arm writes, with an anti-vacuity count so the scan cannot pass by reading an empty body. `facts.rs:78-79` claimed every fact sits at `Surface::Hook`. `Document` has not since CLOUD-772, and `DOCUMENT`'s own doc says the opposite a few hundred lines down — CLOUD-589's class, in the header every reader of the module starts from. Refs: CLOUD-849
…t from the fact model A module copied verbatim from `policy.rs:143-147` — the example an author writing their first module copies — reported nothing over a tracked `stray.o` on a `severity = "deny"` row, while `policy test` said `2 passed, 0 failed`. Reproduced end to end with the release binary before any of this was written, and two measurements beyond the row's own: `check` was BYTE-IDENTICAL with and without the tracked artifact, so the gate was dead rather than quiet; and with the `test_` rules stripped, `predicate-unexercised` / `module-untested` did fire, which locates the gap precisely at *a test against an input the engine cannot produce* rather than at *no test*. `input.tree.tracked` did not exist. `tree_document` hand-wrote two keys and referenced the fact model nowhere, so nothing could compare what the engine emits against what the model says it should — and Rego reads an undefined path as silent, so a dead gate and a clean tree are indistinguishable on the decision surface. `Fact::Tracked` is the fact, `Cost::Read` x `Surface::Check` beside `DOCUMENT` and for the same reason: a walk of the working tree is unbounded in the size of the repository where a git ref read is not. `Fact::tree_key` is the key vocabulary, a stated `const` beside each fact exactly as `class()` is — not `as_str`, because `input.tree.documents` shipped in CLOUD-833 and renaming a shipped input key to save an accessor would break every module the retirement is about to write. `tree_document` is now a PROJECTION over `Fact::ALL` under an exhaustive wildcard-free match, on `hook::call_document`'s shape (CLOUD-834). The compiler proved the point while this was being written: adding `Fact::Tracked` failed to compile in `call_document` until its arm was stated, which is a new fact being unable to go silently unprojected. `every_check_resolvable_fact_is_projected_under_its_own_tree_key` asserts the key set in BOTH directions with anti-vacuity in the same function — a key naming no fact is how `tracked` was documented and never built; a fact with no key is one a module can never see. `every_input_path_in_the_module_doc_names_a_key_the_engine_emits` scans `policy.rs`'s doc text against the emitted set, the shape `spawn_census.rs` uses against `clippy.toml`, so CLOUD-589's doc-cites-what-does-not-exist class has a mechanism rather than a second pair of eyes. TWO CORRECTIONS TO THE ROW, both measured. Its fix section names `git::list_tree` as the source; that is gix in-process rather than the spawn its §3 reasoned from, AND it is non-recursive, so it would have emitted a `tracked` list silently missing every nested path. Its correction then poses a dilemma — add a recursive ref walk or state that `tracked` is could-not-look under `--config-from`. Neither is needed: `--config-from` redirects the policy AUTHORITY (which rules, which module bytes), never the subject, and `run_static` takes no reference at all, so the subject is the working tree in every case. `tracked` is `tree_files`, the walk the run already hoists. And a recursive ref walk already exists — `git::for_each_blob_at_rev` — carrying the gitlink and `core.quotePath` skews a second copy would have had to rediscover. Recorded on the row. AND ONE REFUSAL BECOMES A PERMISSION. `validate` refused a tree policy row with no `documents`, because such a row "is handed an empty tree and decides nothing". That was right while `documents` was the only content the tree carried. It is not now: `tracked` is emitted on every evaluation, so a row declaring no documents can decide over which files exist — which is exactly the three of twenty tree-scoped gates CLOUD-846 counts as reading no file literals. The bound the refusal protected is unweakened, because it was a bound on CONTENT: a row still reads no file it did not name, and `tracked` carries paths that cannot hold a byte of one. Re-run against the reproduction: `no-stray-artifact` now denies over the tracked `.o`, and is green without it. Refs: CLOUD-845
…emit Building `input.tree.tracked` fixed one dead gate. This closes the class it was an instance of, which is the half worth having: without it, every field added to the tree document reopens the same hole. Rego reads an undefined path as undefined, so a module reading a key the engine never emits has an empty `violation` set — indistinguishable from a clean tree on the decision surface. The module's own `test_` rule cannot catch it either, because `with input as` lets the author supply the very shape the engine cannot produce. That is the pair of properties that made CLOUD-845 invisible: the predicate is silent, and the test agrees with it. `check_tree_paths_are_emittable` refuses such a module at load, exit 1, naming the offending key and the module path — pointer-only, never a line of the body. The key set is `Fact::tree_key` over the `Surface::Check` facts plus the could-not-look channel, read from the model rather than restated here, because a second list is the defect this row is an instance of. AT LOAD RATHER THAN IN `policy test`, which is where §2(c) asks for it. Doing it here is strictly stronger and costs nothing extra: a module reading an unemittable key is dead on `check` too, and `check` is the surface where it would actually be trusted. §5's exit class is unchanged — a config fault at load, never a verdict. `collect_input_paths` reads the references off the compiled AST via the existing `reference_path`, so a bracket index (`input.tree.documents["x"]`) stops the chain at the key, which is exactly the granularity the check wants. Paths only: a reference is a NAME, so rule 4 has nothing to say about carrying it. Both halves shown able to fail: a module reading `input.tree.nonesuch` is refused and the message names `nonesuch` and `policy/gate.rego` while carrying no line of the module; a module reading `tracked`, `documents` and `missing` loads. Without the second, the first would pass on a `load` that refused every tree module. Mediated-call rows are untouched — they read `input.call` and `input.facts`, which `hook::call_document` owns and CLOUD-834 already asserts in both directions. Refs: CLOUD-845
…fault, not a skip The last of `missing`'s three causes, split out (CLOUD-845). `tree_document` checked the extension BEFORE any I/O and dropped an unparseable path into `missing`, so `policy_rule` skipped the whole rule — silently, green, with the file never opened. A row declaring a prose or script path therefore looked exactly like a row whose document was absent, and a migrated gate could go dead by declaring the wrong extension just as surely as by naming a field the engine never emits. Same failure, second road. The split is what §5's exit-1 attaches to. No state of the filesystem makes an unparseable extension parseable, so reporting it as could-not-look reports a permanent authoring error as a transient one. Absent, unreadable and unparsed stay verdicts; this one is refused at load, naming the path and what is wrong with it. Asserted through `run_static` rather than the private `validate`, so the case covers the refusal REACHING a consumer rather than a helper returning the right value — and with the discriminator beside it, or it would pass on a `run_static` that refused every declared document. The fixture's file EXISTS, which is the point: the cause is the declaration, not the tree. The repo's own gate caught this commit's first draft: `no_artifact_name_reaches_the_core` refused a comment that named consumer artifacts while explaining the class. Non-negotiable rule 1 working on the change that was written to serve it. Refs: CLOUD-845
…reads each path once `documents` was literal-path only — the sole path handling was `root.join(path)`, no expansion — so `documents = ["mise-tasks/*"]` was read as a file with a `*` in its name, failed, landed in `missing`, and skipped the whole rule. Silently, green. A policy row was the ONE kind excluded from the glob machinery every other kind uses, and it is the kind the entire retirement migrates onto: 27 of the 82 bash gates open more than five files. `sources` is that column, resolved with `Selector` — the one matcher, no second implementation. `documents` keeps working as literal paths, so the column is additive and stays the right spelling for the ~55 gates that each name one to four paths. A selector matching nothing is a STATED skip, because a selector that selects nothing and a tree that satisfies the predicate are otherwise the same green. AND THE READ IS SHARED. `run`'s `for rule in rules` wrapped `tree_document`'s `for path in documents` with no dedup and no cache, so two rows declaring one path read and parsed it twice — 79 rules x N documents is 79N reads plus 79N parses. `acquire_declared` resolves the union once for the whole run, hoisted beside `tree_files` and `resolve_derived`, which already carry the same "resolved ONCE" comment. Today each gate is its own process so sharing is not possible; porting them into one engine is what makes it possible, and it is the whole affordability argument for doing so. Asserted BY COUNTER, NOT BY CLOCK, per `.claude/rules/rust.md`: `documents_acquired` is process-global, so its test is its own binary for the reason `policy_input_narrowing.rs` is. Three rows over one path is one acquisition, with the anti-vacuity half — a fourth row over an uncached path moves the counter — in the same function, and a `findings` assertion so a cache returning nothing cannot pass it for the wrong reason. The fixture uses three DISTINCT bundles because `load` refuses both a shared source and a shared predicate id, which is also the shape the retirement produces: one migrated gate per bundle. CODERABBIT'S REVIEW, ALL TEN FINDINGS TAKEN. Two were holes in the gate this chain added one commit earlier, and both are real: - The `preset` branch of `load` `continue`s before `check_tree_paths_are_emittable`, so a tree-scoped preset reading an unemittable key loaded as a dead gate — through the one source that bypasses the check. - `input.tree["nonesuch"]` is a `RefBrack`, and `reference_path` read only the dotted half, so the key came out empty and the check skipped it. The refusal was defeatable by quoting. A literal bracket index is now part of the path; a variable index stays `None`, which is could-not-look rather than a guess. And one was a vacuous assertion of mine: `!findings[0].path.contains(...)` cannot fail, because `path` is set from the row's `bundle` and structurally cannot hold file content. It asserts over the whole rendered finding now. Also taken: the `crate_sources` scan walks the subtree rather than one directory (a `.rs` file under a future `src/<module>/` would have silently left the single-acquisition gate uncovering it), the `Tracked` variant doc states it is the working-tree walk and NOT the git index, a shared module const so the deny case and its discriminator cannot drift apart, a case-keyed scratch dir, the stale five-of-seven denominator, and `policy test` no longer walks the tree when no policy row exists (§4). One finding is extended rather than taken as written: the absent-unsupported-path case is ADDED beside the present one rather than replacing it. They are different claims — present proves the cause is the declaration, absent proves the extension is decided before the tree is consulted — and only together do they pin the precedence.

…cope the narrowing test to the path it measured #620 measured that projecting ALREADY-RESOLVED facts into the mediated-call policy input is free — `perf-pair` flat, every path inside the null spread — and wrote that into `.claude/rules/rust.md` as an unconditional verdict. Its own closing line says the measurement does not reach that far: "bring a number showing resolution — not projection — is the cost." So the row is two rows now. Mediated-call fact PROJECTION stays serial unconditionally, on #620's table, which is about exactly that. Tree-surface fact ACQUISITION stays serial **until a number says otherwise** — a migrated gate must CAUSE a file to be opened, at a scale (82 gates, 27 opening more than five files) on the one surface `perf-assert` deliberately budgets no ceiling for, and none of that is measured. Splitting them restores the discipline CLOUD-320 set: a verdict backed by a measurement, scoped to what was measured. `documents_acquired` is what a future measurement starts from, since a per-path read sits inside the noise of a process start and a clock cannot see it. AND THE NARROWING TEST IS SCOPED TO THE MEDIATED CALL. Its fixture was already `scope = "mediated_call"`, but its name and claim were unqualified — "a policy row asks the boundary for no fact it did not already need." Read as a claim about policy rows in general it forbids the capability CLOUD-850 exists to add: on the tree, a row declaring `documents` or `sources` IS the demand signal, and `acquire_declared` reads exactly what the rule set declared. What survives unqualified is the narrower claim, which is the one worth having: on the mediated path a module is a passenger on facts some other row already needed, because that path carries a 100ms budget per call and the tree surface does not. Refs: CLOUD-850
`RuleKind::Policy` x `RuleScope::Tree` is `Cost::Read` x `Surface::Check`, and `check` is the one path with no ceiling: `perf-assert` budgets `noop`, `passthrough`, `hook` and `wired`, and deliberately budgets no `check` path because "a tree walk over a large consumer repo is legitimately slower and no ceiling here could tell that apart from a regression." `README.md` publishes an em-dash in that column. Every migrated gate runs there. That reasoning is sound and stays. What follows from it is not that `check` needs no bound — it is that the bound cannot be a TIME. This is a COUNT, a property of the rule set rather than of the machine, which is exactly the discrimination a clock could not make: a big repository does not move it, and a rule set that stopped declaring what it reads does. The value is far above any real rule set, on purpose. CLOUD-843's whole campaign is 82 gates and its worst-behaved member opens 673 files. A backstop a legitimate consumer can reach is a gate that fails on correct use, and non-negotiable rule 3 says a gate decides rather than estimates — what this decides is "the read set stopped being declared", never "this repository is too big". It is not a config key either: §8 keeps configuration narrow, and a consumer raising its own ceiling would be a consumer switching off the only bound this surface has. §5 IS STRICTER HERE THAN USUAL, and the refusal is shaped by it. The natural thing to print is the path list — and that list is exactly the consumer's own file names, so a refusal carrying it would put the shape of a private tree into an error message. It carries a count and a limit. A count is not a pointer; it is less, and that is the right amount. The decision is extracted rather than exercised through a fixture, per `.claude/rules/rust.md`: where the environment cannot cheaply produce the failing condition, extract the decision and test it directly instead of asserting a conclusion over a precondition that was never created. A ten-thousand-file fixture to exercise a `>=` is that precondition. Both halves of §7(d) are in one function — refuses at the limit, does not refuse below it — because either alone is a gate that cannot discriminate, plus the pointer-only assertion that nothing shaped like a file name reaches the message.

…o decide over have one `tree_document` hands a module `input.tree.documents[<path>]`, parsed by `facts::Format` — four formats that parse plus `Pkl`, declarable and never parsed. `Format::for_path` answers `None` for anything else and the path lands in `missing`, so the row skips. Correct three-valued behaviour, and a hard ceiling: measured, of the 20 tree-scoped gates only 8 read structured config. Four read markdown, five read `.bats`/`.rs`/`.pkl` source, three read no file literals at all. CLOUD-843's wave 1 was 8, not 20. `Fact::Lines` is the missing fact, `Cost::Read` x `Surface::Check` beside `DOCUMENT` and `TRACKED`. **Tree/Check is stated in its own arm rather than inherited**: reading a file of unbounded size is unbounded in the input exactly as parsing one is, and the 100ms budget is per mediated call. The compiler enforced that while this was written — `call_document` refused to compile until `Fact::Lines => None` was stated. LINES RATHER THAN RAW TEXT OR MATCHES, and the argument is rule 4 rather than convenience. Raw text is one `msg` away from a payload in a finding, which is why `Module` holds no `source`. Matches move the predicate half back OUT of Rego, which is what the retirement exists to stop. Lines is the widest shape that cannot put content into a finding by accident: a module decides *line 42 matched* and reports the path and the number. **One acquisition still, and that is why `Want` is a parameter rather than a second function.** `acquire` is the single place this crate opens a declared file; an `acquire_lines` beside it would be a second boundary with its own error mapping, which is the shape CLOUD-849 collapsed three of. Lines have no `Unparsed` arm to reach — any text splits into lines, and bytes that are not text were already `Unreadable` — and that asymmetry is exactly what lets markdown and source reach a predicate. Could-not-look, NEVER an empty array (§2). On this fact the distinction is sharper than on `documents`, because "no lines" is an ordinary value: an empty array would let the predicate run, find nothing and report clean — a gate that cannot see its subject saying the subject is fine. Asserted directly. §7(d)'s demonstration is `closing-key-check`'s PREDICATE expressed as a line predicate, end to end, both directions. The bash gate stays live and nothing is retired: the migration is CLOUD-843 and is dispatched separately, and what §7(d) needs is the claim "lines is enough for these" shown rather than argued. Recorded on the row. CODERABBIT'S REVIEW. One finding was a defect of mine and a bad one: `acquire_declared` carried a comment claiming "a malformed `sources` glob is refused by `validate` before any rule evaluates" — and no such check existed. Both callers discard the error `declared_documents` returns, so a bad pattern SILENTLY SKIPPED the rule under `check` while `policy test` hard-failed on it. That is the silently-green failure CLOUD-845 and CLOUD-850 exist to close, reopened by me for the new column, with a comment asserting the mechanism that was missing — CLOUD-589's class, self-inflicted. `validate` refuses a malformed `sources` pattern now, and refuses `sources`/`lines` on a mediated-call row for the reason it already refuses `documents` there.

…her than reviewed CLOUD-846's §5 is the clause the whole fact rests on: a module may SEE a line, a finding may not CARRY one. Lines is the widest shape that cannot put content into a finding by accident — but "by accident" is doing work in that sentence, and without a canary the guarantee is that nobody has written the leak yet. `tests/pointer_only.rs` is where it belongs and why: it sits at the PROCESS boundary rather than at the emitters, because there is no shared emission path to put it in (CLOUD-371). The bytes the process wrote is where all ~30 `writeln!` sites and ten differently-named renderers converge, so no future emitter can route around it. It is also crossed with the census over every leaf verb of `surface::SURFACE`, asserted total in both directions. The corpus gains a content-class canary, `lineread`: a line of a file a `policy` row declared under `lines`, with a module that reads it and denies. Content class rather than declaration class, deliberately — a rule's `pattern` is what `config show` exists to echo, and a line the engine read on the module's behalf is the opposite of that. BREAKING CHANGE: `facts::Fact` gains `Tracked` and `Lines`, and `rules::Rule` gains `sources` and `lines`. Both types are `pub` with public variants and public fields, so `cargo semver-checks` reports `enum_variant_added`, `enum_no_repr_variant_discriminant_changed` and `constructible_struct_adds_field` — a downstream exhaustive `match` on `Fact` and any `Rule` struct literal both stop compiling. CLOUD-845's, CLOUD-846's and CLOUD-850's §6 each predicted "additive, so not `!`", and each was wrong in the same way: additive to a `pub` enum or a constructible `pub` struct is a break in Rust regardless of intent. The gate measured it and the gate decides (non-negotiable rule 3). Declared here rather than worked around, because the alternative — `#[non_exhaustive]` on both types — is itself the same break, plus a permanent constraint on how consumers pattern match, chosen to make one number look smaller.

…em as one `run_rule` reached eight parameters when `documents` joined `files` and `derived`, and `clippy::too_many_arguments` refused it. The five it takes are not five unrelated things: they are exactly what `run` hoists above its loop — the tree walk, the derived facts, the acquired documents — plus the provisions and bundles the config carries. `RunInputs<'_>` names that set, so the next acquisition row adds a field rather than a parameter. Two matches keep one arm per variant against `clippy::match_same_arms`, with `#[expect]` and a stated reason rather than a merge: `hook::call_document`'s projection and `rules::document_in_file`'s acquisition outcome are both wildcard-free on purpose, so a new fact or a new cause has to be decided there. Three of the projection's arms answer `None` for three different reasons written above them; collapsing the patterns would delete exactly those reasons. None of this reached the commit gate: hk's `cargo-clippy` step is in the `slow` profile, which pre-commit skips, so `verify` is the first place it is judged. Refs: CLOUD-850

rules::tree_documentis the whole tree-surface policy input, and it is where CLOUD-843's ~82-gate migration lands. It was hand-built, referenced the fact model nowhere, and had no correspondence test.

CLOUD-850's concurrency clause.
rust.mdrequires a verdict backed by a measurement; this repo declares zerodocumentsrows, so there is nothing to measure. The counter and the once-per-run resolution landed so the measurement is possible when CLOUD-843's wave 1 exists.CLOUD-851 entirely, and it is deliberately not closed by this PR. Its §8 is
blockedByCLOUD-850 specifically because byte-stability under a parallel fan-in is what shapes the sink. That fan-in was not built, so §7(c) — "run enough times to make an ordering-dependent fan-in fail" — could only pass because there is nothing to break it. That is the assert-your-own-premise shape this chain exists to remove, in the row that closes it. Recorded on CLOUD-851, with a correction:Fix::Runis handed to the agent, so it is a shape to copy, not a boundary mechanism to reuse.Scope
