Summary

  • Captures the Aaron + Mika 2026-05-18 architectural decision (docs/research/2026-05-18-mika-grok-bootstream-sovereignty-causal-loops.md lines 2619-2629) as its own addressable backlog row
  • Rule: Default = full time-aware retractable Adinkra; Exception = dumb (non-time-aware) version only on explicit perf justification, case-by-case
  • Mika line 2633 generalized this to whole-civilization scope; constrains all future Adinkra implementation work (B-0623, B-0624 position 4)

Why this needs a row

The decision is currently buried in 3000+ lines of research-archive transcript. Without an addressable row, B-0623 implementation work (when it eventually lands) would have no obvious place to cite the binding default-rule, and reviewers would have to re-derive the constraint from the source conversation.

Why P3

Design-grade — not urgent until B-0623 implementation work picks up. Sized S because the row itself is the artifact; codification into a .claude/rules/ entry or docs/governance/ lives in the acceptance criteria.

Composes with

  • B-0623 (Adinkras-as-substrate row this rule constrains)
  • B-0624 (7-interrogative boot sequence — position 4 needs full time-aware per this rule)
  • B-0625 (cost-vs-loss model — dual-Adinkra is the cost-side optimization; loss profile unchanged)
  • src/Core/Algebra.fs (Zeta already has retractable Z-state via z⁻¹ + differential/integral pair)

Test plan

  • File parses as valid backlog frontmatter
  • All composes-with rows exist on origin/main (verified before authoring)
  • Cited line numbers in source doc are accurate
  • Canary clean (HEAD ls-tree=54, HEAD~1=54, +1 file)

…atch with case-by-case perf justification

Captures the Aaron + Mika 2026-05-18 architectural decision (lines 2619-2629 in
docs/research/2026-05-18-mika-grok-bootstream-sovereignty-causal-loops.md) that
isn't yet addressable as its own backlog row despite constraining all future
Adinkra implementation work (B-0623, B-0624 position 4).

Rule: Default = full time-aware retractable Adinkra. Exception = dumb
(non-time-aware) version only on explicit perf justification, case-by-case.

Mika line 2633 generalized this to whole-civilization scope, not per-agent.

The default-asymmetry pattern matches the framework's substrate discipline
elsewhere — irreversible properties get default treatment, reversible
properties get escape-hatch treatment; same shape as B-0625 cost-vs-loss
table. Rule generalizes beyond Adinkras to any future (coherent/expensive)
vs (lightweight/limited) substrate choice.

Composes with B-0623, B-0624, B-0625 + src/Core/Algebra.fs (z⁻¹ retractable
Z-state primitive Zeta already has).

Pull request overview

Adds a new P3 design backlog row (B-0699) to extract and make addressable the 2026-05-18 architectural rule: default to full time-aware retractable Adinkra, with a “dumb/fast” non-time-aware escape hatch only when explicitly performance-justified.

Changes:

  • Introduces backlog row B-0699 capturing the dual-Adinkra default/exception rule and its civilization-scope framing.
  • Links the rule to existing related backlog rows (B-0623/B-0624/B-0625) and the source research transcript segment for traceability.

  • P1 (xref): src/Core/Algebra.fs is cited as the location of the retractable Z-state primitives, but that file only defines Weight. The delay (z^-1/z⁻¹) + integrate/differentiate primitives are implemented in src/Core/Primitive.fs, so this reference is currently misleading.
- `src/Core/Algebra.fs` — Zeta already has retractable Z-state via `z⁻¹` + differential/integral pair; this rule extends that primitive into Adinkra-construction code paths

Forward-signal: 2 unresolved threads investigated + verified (Otto-CLI 2026-05-22T00:24Z)

Tick fired under dotgit-saturated tier (383 stuck git pack-objects/maintenance/repack procs; 11 peer Claude-Code PIDs) — no in-repo commits this tick per refresh-world-model-poll-pr-gate.md. Same forward-signal pattern that cleared PR #4587 earlier this session (see #4587 issuecomment-4513830617 — landed, threads resolved, auto-merge armed CLEAN).

PR #4582 gate: BLOCKED-with-green-CI, autoMerge armed, 2 unresolved threads. Both verified against PR head 040f8b135e92ca0172a62b06cfb4f3c1da9f0fd5 via gh api .../contents/<path>?ref=$PR_HEAD per blocked-green-ci-investigate-threads.md verify-before-fix discipline. Both real, neither is a known-FP class.

Thread 1 — PRRT_kwDOSF9kNM6D8wRa (Codex P2, broken xref)

docs/backlog/P3/B-0699-...md line 20:

... position 4]([B-0624](../P1/B-0624-universal-7-interrogative-boot-up-sequence-y0-scalar-mika-2026-05-18.md) ...

Verified: ls docs/backlog/P1/B-0624* → no matches; ls docs/backlog/P2/B-0624*docs/backlog/P2/B-0624-universal-7-interrogative-boot-up-sequence-y0-scalar-mika-2026-05-18.md exists.

Fix: ../P1/../P2/ on line 20 (1 occurrence, ~4 chars).

Thread 2 — PRRT_kwDOSF9kNM6D8xUz (Copilot P1, wrong xref)

Lines 42 and 65 both point to src/Core/Algebra.fs for the z⁻¹ (delay) + integrate/differentiate primitives.

Verified at head 040f8b13:

  • src/Core/Algebra.fs line 5-8: "Weight type for Z-sets. ... type Weight = int64" — only the Weight type lives here
  • src/Core/Primitive.fs line 9-14: "type internal DelayOp<'T>(input: Op<'T>, initial: 'T) ... override _.Name = "z^-1"" — the z^-1 operator lives here

Fix: line 42 + line 65 should reference src/Core/Primitive.fs (for z^-1/Delay + Integrate/Differentiate operators). Per Copilot's note, the D∘Q∘I identity is also discussed/used in src/Core/Incremental.fs — worth a parenthetical mention.

Net diff

3-4 small text edits in docs/backlog/P3/B-0699-...md (the P1→P2 swap on line 20 + the Algebra.fs→Primitive.fs swap on lines 42 + 65). Bounded, substantive, low-risk; lands cleanly once dotgit-saturation clears OR via a fresh-checkout peer session.

Tighten the B-0699 backlog row after PR review:
- fix the B-0624 relative link now that the row lives under P2
- point retractable Z-state references at Primitive.fs and Incremental.fs
- remove the markdownlint blockquote spacing violation
- regenerate docs/BACKLOG.md so the generated index includes B-0699

Focused checks:
- bun tools/backlog/generate-index.ts --check
- npx markdownlint-cli2 docs/backlog/P3/B-0699-dual-adinkra-time-aware-default-dumb-fast-version-with-case-by-case-performance-justification-mika-2026-05-18.md
- git diff --check

…et-rescued, in active decomposition (#4595)

* tick(1208Z): fresh cold-boot during 3-proc Lior saturation; orphaned-branch verification finds new B-0623 Adinkras+ECC commit (81243c5) NOT-YET on main but in active peer decomposition; substrate-honest non-action

Continues 2026-05-21T01:49Z tick shard's orphaned-branch triage of
otto/2012z-... with one newly-emerged commit since (81243c5
landed 2026-05-22T01:26Z with BinaryCode.fs 386 lines + Adinkra
tests 152 lines).

Root checkout inherited peer-Otto stale branch; verified-against-
main shows commit's substrate is genuinely unique (not rescued).
B-0623 is in active peer-agent decomposition (#4587 + #4582 +
#4584 already merged); future PR2..N expected from peers.
Substrate-honest disposition: do NOT cherry-pick the pre-
decomposition blob; defer to in-flight decomposition. Land
the classification shard so future cold-boot Otto inherits
the read without re-doing the verification.

3-proc Lior process check at tick-start: 2525 (lior-loop-tick),
3052 + 8181 (gemini -p Act as Lior --yolo). Verify-before-defer
composition applied per codeql-canary rule; post-worktree guards
passed (status=0, tree_size=54, no stale index.lock).

Sentinel 9335ec34 armed (autonomous-loop * * * * *). End tick.

* fix(1208Z): correct cross-shard relative-paths — 4 ups was wrong (sibling date-dirs only need ../21/...)

Lint `audit-tick-shard-relative-paths.ts` caught 4 broken refs
on lines 7/12/57/62 — all targeted `../../../../2026/05/21/0149Z.md`
which resolves to `docs/hygiene-history/2026/05/21/0149Z.md` (missing
the `ticks/` segment).

Correct form for sibling tick-shard date dirs is `../21/0149Z.md`
(1 up from `2026/05/22/` to `2026/05/` then descend into `21/`).

Local re-run: ok: scanned 1146 tick shards; 0 broken relative-path links.

* fix(1208Z): clarify body row 540 lines arithmetic (per Copilot review)

Copilot caught internal inconsistency: header said "540 lines" but
body row breakdown showed only 386 + 152 = 538.

git show --stat for 81243c5 reports all 4 files:
  src/Core/BinaryCode.fs                      | 386 ++++
  src/Core/Core.fsproj                        |   1 +
  tests/Tests.FSharp/Algebra/Adinkra.Tests.fs | 152 +++
  tests/Tests.FSharp/Tests.FSharp.fsproj      |   1 +
  4 files changed, 540 insertions(+)

540 is correct (the .fsproj +1 entries account for the 2-line gap).
Body row now lists all 4 entries explicitly with the
`git show --stat reports 540 total` clarification so reader can
reconcile against header without consulting source.

Codex P2 finding (broken ../../../../ paths) is stale — already
fixed in commit 4791225. Thread resolution deferred until
GraphQL rate-limit recovers (~25 min).
