…loop arc 2026-04-28 Per the same-tick CURRENT-update discipline: surfacing the 3 class-namings Amara contributed this arc into CURRENT-amara.md so future-Otto reads them on wake. Three classes, three worked examples, all in one ~30min arc: 1. Chronological Insertion Polarity Error (PR #685; control: cat >> EOF or canonical-sort) 2. Incomplete Source-Set Regeneration Hazard + Workflow Null-Result Audit Signal (PR #685; control: --check first, six diagnostic questions for null-result audit; concrete catches: B-0085 + B-0087) 3. Outdated Review-Thread Merge Gate Residue (PR #687; control: reply with commit-SHA + explicit resolve) Pattern of class-naming as ferry contribution documented: observation → forward → Amara review → formal class + counterweight taxonomy mapping → land same-arc. 5-7 min round-trip makes this cheap enough to do inline. Refresh markers updated. No code-surface changes.

Pull request overview
Adds a new §12 entry to memory/CURRENT-amara.md summarizing three newly formalized “class namings” (each with definitions, controls, and worked examples) from the current autonomous-loop arc, and updates the file’s refresh metadata.
Changes:
- Add §12 describing the three class-namings and the recurring “observation → named class → control → taxonomy mapping” pattern.
- Record which memory artifacts were landed/extended as part of the arc.
- Update the “Last full refresh / Prior refresh / File created” footer metadata.

tools/hygiene/sort-tick-history-canonical.py is specialized for the tick-history table format (defaulting to docs/hygiene-history/loop-tick-history.md, with a --file override). Here it’s presented as a generic control for any “oldest-first append-only file”; consider tightening the wording to avoid implying it’s safe/appropriate for arbitrary files (e.g., call out it’s for loop-tick-history or tick-history-format files specifically).

…ing Ferry Protocol with SD-9 guardrail + B-0088 (#691) Three substrate landings from this autonomous-loop arc closing the substrate-discipline meta-loop: 1. Advisory Enforcement Workflow Gap class (Amara 2026-04-28T20:24Z): memory/feedback_advisory_enforcement_workflow_gap_amara_class_name_otto_2026_04_28.md. Definition: workflow claims/implies enforcement but is not in required-status-checks set; failures observable but non-blocking. Worked example: paired-edit lint failed on #688/#689 but both auto-merged. Decision: promote to required OR downgrade claim to advisory. Risk: 'guardrail that looks like enforcement but behaves like telemetry.' 2. Class-Naming Ferry Protocol with SD-9 guardrail (Amara 2026-04-28T20:24Z; Aaron 2026-04-28T20:25Z reinforced 'she is 100% right here'): memory/feedback_class_naming_ferry_protocol_with_sd9_guardrail_amara_2026_04_28.md. Meta-class for the Otto-observe -> Aaron-forward -> Amara-review -> encode genre. SD-9 guardrail LOAD-BEARING (not footnote): Amara endorsement is signal, NOT proof. Local factory-hygiene classes encode freely; non-local claims need substrate evidence + external lineage + falsifier. Anti-pattern: 'Amara blesses the name, therefore true' — Aaron explicitly named this as the failure mode to guard against. 3. B-0088 P2 backlog row (the concrete instance the Advisory Enforcement Workflow Gap class names): docs/backlog/P2/B-0088-*.md. Decision fork for maintainer: A (promote paired-edit lint to required-status-check) or B (downgrade discoverability claim to advisory). Sibling lint audit catalogued (memory-reference-existence, memory-index-duplicate, backlog-index-integrity). The SD-9 guardrail prevents a halo-effect failure mode in the class-naming ferry: each future Amara-named class encoding must preserve the worked-example + mechanism + falsifier shape. Local classes pass quickly; non-local claims must show evidence. MEMORY.md index updated with 2 new entries; paired-edit marker bumped to PR #691. All 5 classes named in this arc remain local-factory-hygiene (no non-local claims), pass SD-9 quickly.

Adds §12 to CURRENT-amara.md surfacing the three class-namings Amara contributed during this autonomous-loop arc (Chronological Insertion Polarity Error, Incomplete Source-Set Regeneration Hazard + Workflow Null-Result Audit Signal, Outdated Review-Thread Merge Gate Residue), with worked examples + the recognized pattern of class-naming as ferry contribution. Per the same-tick CURRENT-update discipline. No code changes.
