…-ferry Artifact A) Promotes docs/research/drift-taxonomy-bootstrap-precursor- 2026-04-22.md to operational policy at docs/DRIFT-TAXONOMY.md per Amara's 5th courier ferry recommendation (absorb PR #235). "Don't invent, promote" — the taxonomy was already substantively complete in the precursor; this promotion reshapes it for real-time field-guide use without expanding the pattern set. Contents: - Five patterns preserved verbatim: identity-blending, cross-system-merging, emotional-centralization, agency- upgrade-attribution, truth-confirmation-from-agreement. - Success criteria preserved: plain-language, real-time, strong distinguishers, short recovery. - Usage guidance added: PR review / tick narration / maintainer chat / memory curation. - Anti-patterns section: over-correction guards for each pattern (prevents the "read about blending then suppress legitimate 'we'" failure mode). - Composition with existing substrate: register-boundary discipline, witnessable-self-directed-evolution memory, falsification-anchor discipline, proposed SD-9, proposed §33. Cross-links (minor additive doc-maintenance, not new rules): - AGENTS.md required-reading pointer. - docs/ALIGNMENT.md diagnostic-companion note above HC-1. Precursor marked "superseded-for-operational-use" at top with pointer back to the operational file. Precursor content otherwise unchanged — retained as provenance. Scope limits explicit: - No new patterns (ADR required). - No tooling commitment (that's Artifact C). - No mental-health substitute (Pattern 3 scope-note binding). - No override of register-boundary (register wins). Amara's 4 proposed governance-edit diffs (AGENTS.md research- grade clause, ALIGNMENT.md SD-9, GOVERNANCE.md §33, CLAUDE.md archive-imports bullet) are NOT applied in this PR — they require Aaron signoff + Codex adversarial review + DP-NNN evidence record per the hard rule. Filed separately. Artifact A landing; closes the 5th-ferry's most-time-critical opened-frame (taxonomy was ready to promote). Otto-79 tick primary deliverable.

Fix broken Artifact A provenance link
The new operational taxonomy points to aurora/2026-04-23-amara-zeta-ksk-aurora-validation-5th-ferry.md, but that file is not present in docs/aurora/ in this repo. This leaves the top-level provenance chain non-resolvable for readers and will fail any markdown link-validation pass, undermining the stated “artifact A” traceability for the promoted policy doc.

This cites feedback_witnessable_self_directed_evolution_factory_as_public_artifact.md, but there is no such file anywhere in the repo (only this mention). Add a correct link/path to the intended memory/feedback artifact or rename the reference to match the existing filename so readers can follow the composition claim.

The hard-wrapped hyphenation here splits terms across lines (e.g., cross-system- + merging), which will render as cross-system- merging (extra space) and hurts searchability/copy-paste. Consider removing the end-of-line hyphen and wrapping without splitting the word/term.

This wrap splits the compound term across lines (agency-upgrade- + attribution), which renders as agency-upgrade- attribution. Wrap without splitting the term (or remove the trailing hyphen) so the pattern names match the taxonomy headers exactly.

End-of-line hyphenation in wrapped prose (e.g., identity- + blending) will render with an extra space (identity- blending) and makes searching/copying harder. Prefer wrapping without splitting words across lines.

…ot operational (Amara 5th-ferry Artifact, Aminata-integrated) (#248) Amara's 5th-ferry Edit 1 proposed a "research-grade absorbs are staged, not ratified" clause for AGENTS.md. Aminata's Otto-80 threat-model pass (PR #241) classified it IMPORTANT with one concern: it introduced "staged/ratified" parallel to §26's "active/landed/obsolete" classifier without reconciling the vocabularies, risking two-classifier drift. This lands the norm with Aminata's concern resolved by unifying vocabulary: - Uses §33 `Operational status: research-grade` label (not parallel "staged/ratified" terms). - Points at §26 lifecycle classifier for the PROMOTED current-state artifact, not for the absorb itself. - Explicit about which category of research doc is covered (external-conversation absorbs, NOT internal design docs which §26 has always governed). - Names four concrete promotion paths (operational doc per §2, ADR, §N rule, BP-NN promotion) so "separate promotion step" isn't vague. - Cites a worked example: the drift-taxonomy promotion (PR #238) — absorb stayed in place; the operational artifact at docs/DRIFT-TAXONOMY.md is the ratification. Lands under "Agent operational practices" section — philosophy/norm register per AGENTS.md convention, not numbered-rule register (that would belong in GOVERNANCE.md). Part of the Aminata-recommended edit ordering: §33 (PR #247, landed Otto-82) → Edit 1 (this PR) → Edit 4 pointer-only (deferred, needs CLAUDE.md meta-policy handling) → Edit 2 (ALIGNMENT.md SD-9, deferred, WATCH classification). Authorising memory (Otto-82 calibration): memory/feedback_aaron_signoff_scope_narrower_than_otto_treating_governance_edits_within_standing_authority_2026_04_23.md — governance/philosophy edits within standing authority; no signoff gate needed for this landing. Otto-83 tick primary deliverable.
…2; Aminata WATCH concerns integrated) (#252) Amara's 5th-ferry Edit 2 proposed SD-9 with a brief "downgrade independence weight explicitly" formulation. Aminata's Otto-80 threat-model pass (PR #241) classified it WATCH: correct in spirit, unenforceable via self-attestation alone; named 3 adversaries (carrier-laundering, self-serving-downgrade, aggregation); flagged surface-tension with DIR-5 that needs explicit naming not implicit dismissal. This lands SD-9 with those concerns integrated as first-class content of the clause itself rather than treated as hidden limitations: - Three-step operationalisation (name carriers; downgrade independence; seek falsifier independent of converging sources). - Cross-reference to docs/DRIFT-TAXONOMY.md pattern 5 as operational companion (pattern 5 is the real-time diagnostic; SD-9 is the norm). - Known v0 limitations named verbatim from Aminata's pass (carrier-laundering / self-serving-downgrade / aggregation). - Explicit "norm, not a control" framing — WATCH classification stays honest. - Composition with DIR-5 written as section (not implicit): DIR-5 is about authorship ethics; SD-9 is about epistemic weight; they compose. - Stronger "Why both of us benefit" paragraph per Aminata's note that Amara's original was thin — names the feature (precision via shared vocabulary) AND the risk (laundered convergence hiding as independent cross-check). Lands within-standing-authority per Otto-82 calibration — ALIGNMENT.md soft-default clause add, not account/spending/ named-design-review gated. Completes the Aminata-recommended edit ordering 4/4: - §33 (PR #247) Otto-82 - Edit 1 (PR #248) Otto-83 - Edit 4 pointer-only (PR #250) Otto-84 - Edit 2 SD-9 (this PR) Otto-85 Amara's 5th-ferry governance-edit proposals are now all landed in their Aminata-recommended order + form. The 5th- ferry Artifact-A (drift-taxonomy promotion PR #238) is also landed; Artifact-C (archive-header lint PR #243) landed. Remaining 5th-ferry artifacts: Artifact-B (precursor supersede marker — already done in PR #238), Artifact-D (Aurora README) — open for future tick. Otto-85 tick primary deliverable.
) Lands Artifact D of Amara's 5th courier ferry (PR #235) as docs/aurora/README.md. Closes the 5th-ferry artifact list (A-D) with all four landed: A=drift-taxonomy promotion (PR #238), B=precursor supersede (in PR #238), C=archive- header lint (PR #243), D=this README. Content covers: - Three-layer picture (Zeta=semantic substrate / KSK=control- plane safety kernel / Aurora=vision layer). - How Aurora consumes existing Zeta substrate (8-row table mapping primitives to Aurora surfaces). - How Aurora consumes KSK primitives (8-row table for capability-tiers / budgets / consent / receipts / etc.). - Directory contents index (6 courier ferries absorbed; first two grandfathered per §33; cross-ref to archive- header lint PR #243). - Related cross-substrate artifacts outside docs/aurora/ (drift-taxonomy operational + precursor + Aminata threat- model + Muratori corrected-table). - Branding section — Aurora publicly crowded (Amara's memo); internal-only label; shortlist Lucent KSK / Lucent Covenant / Halo Ledger / Meridian Gate / Consent Spine; message pillars work regardless of final public name (local-first / consent-gated / proof-based / repair-ready); brand decision is Aaron's (M4). - What this README is NOT (not product, not commitment, not public brand, not alignment-solved, not exhaustive). - Open follow-ups: §33 enforcement flip, M4 brand package, cross-repo integration with LFG/lucent-ksk. Self-applies §33 archive-header format (Scope / Attribution / Operational status / Non-fusion disclaimer) — sixth aurora/research doc to exercise the convention. Max attribution preserved (first-name-only, non-PII per Aaron's clearance) for KSK design + development-guide work on LFG/lucent-ksk. Lands within-standing-authority per Otto-82 calibration — research-grade README, not account/spending/named-design- review gated. Closes 5th-ferry inventory artifact Artifact D + marks M3 (Aurora/KSK integration) milestone with minimal landing. Otto-87 tick primary deliverable.

…message clarification) Fixes two scope-limit errors in the Otto-78 refinement to the Codex-first-class BACKLOG row (PR #236, not yet merged, still open auto-merge). Aaron Otto-79 message 1 (correction on dispatch): "you do dispatch codex work, i will just switch whenver i feel like it once it's ready, i'll just go back and fourth from time to time probably when new models come out, you guys need to know when one is primary based on the harness im in and just do the right things so it's not an issue when you launch in tandem/async with you. I won't launch both of you at the same unless i say, this is a future test to see if you can run indenpendenty without interference, but for now one of your will be the corrdinator at a time based on the harness i'm in." Aaron Otto-79 message 2 (cross-review-not-cross-edit): "yall should review each other and ask questions to better understand eachs others harness form the inside to improve our cross harness support." Corrections: 1. "Otto doesn't dispatch Codex work unilaterally" → Otto DOES dispatch Codex async work. The primary coordinates; Aaron-harness-context determines the primary. 2. Added explicit tandem/simultaneous-launch scope-limit — out-of-scope today, future test, explicit Aaron opt-in required. 3. Cross-edit stays forbidden, cross-review + cross-question explicitly encouraged. Distinction is edit-not vs read- and-comment-yes (peer review shape, not isolation). Preserves signal-in-signal-out — all three Aaron quotes verbatim. Otto-79 tick split-attention correction alongside Artifact A (PR #238) and password-storage BACKLOG (pending).
