Land the receipts main already cites

[briansrls]

gunbc.runner.runner_host_filtered_egress merged to main in #10733 citing gunbc.runner.runner_guest_egress_attempt, which did not. That receipt and two siblings — the cgroup placement and guest network observations — were stranded on #10700, so main currently carries a citation naming a module the repository does not contain.

That is the positional-reference failure in its worst form. A stale line number decays quietly; a citation to an absent module means a reader cannot find what was cited at all, and the claim resting on it becomes uncheckable.

They matter to what landed. runner_host_filtered_egress rejects the bridged topology, and the record of that bridge being tried, what it exposed and why it was abandoned lives in runner_guest_egress_attempt. Without it the rejection reads as a preference rather than a finding.

The first landing of those files still left them dangling: the citing sites named them only in // comments, which DESIGN §4c erases, so they were neither citations nor §3c consumers. This head imports and folds the attempt, placement, and guest-network facts, carries typed DeclarationRefs the cited-symbol check can see, executes that consumption in test.claim.runner.runner_stranded_receipt_consumption_witness_test, and files the class on gunbc.recurring_failure_mode and gunbc.guarantee_stall.

Six original receipt files plus the typed-consumption and 4b ledger follow-up, cherry-picked onto current main rather than resurrecting #10700's branch.

§3b sweep (RC 62929)

Inhabited existing authorities rather than restating them as strings:

• IPv4 / prefix / MAC: extdeps.network.ipv4 (Ipv4Address, PrefixLength, ipv4_address) and extdeps.network.mac (Eui48Address, mac_address). The 172.16.0.x values and the MAC that embeds them are the Mt. Collins probe observation, not gunbc.runner_microvm_network's slot-derived 172.30.slot.{1,2}.
• Evidence paths: std.types.FilePath.
• Fixture sha256s: std.content_hash.Sha256Digest / Sha256DigestHex (same 64-hex literals, still fixture-grounded against artifacts/bmc/*.log).
• Guest arch: extdeps.toolchain.types.Architecture (Aarch64).
• NIC link speed: std.measure.Bandwidth (bandwidth(1000000000) for 1000 Mbps).
• Placement pids / pids.max: std.nat.Nat (the pid field type on ProcessIdentity; see divergence below).
• Ethernet duplex: extdeps.network.link_duplex (FullDuplex | HalfDuplex).
• Neighbour NUD: extdeps.linux.neighbour (NeighbourNudState, observation NudReachable).

Stated divergences (no home found, or the home cannot hold this observation):

• Netdev names (eth0, tap): no IFNAMSIZ / ifname type; runner_microvm_network already documents the 15-character ceiling in prose next to runner_slot_tap_device_name.
• Posix errno: extdeps.runtime.errno.PosixErrno exists but only EAGAIN | ENOMEM. EPERM is not a constructor; the token stays NonEmptyStr "EPERM" (cause prose moved off the field). Growing that enum is a separate change.
• Process identity: gunbc.build_cache_instance.ProcessIdentity is (boot_id, pid, start_time). These receipts have a same-boot pid only, so a bare Nat pid is used rather than fabricating boot_id/start_time.
• Guest hostname ubuntu-fc-uvm: extdeps.dns.domain_name.HostName is RFC 1035 DNS identity. This is systemd utsname from a guest image, not a fleet DNS name.
• Kernel CONFIG_* symbols, cgroup paths, attempt ids, exit-code narrative (rc=137 in a withdrawn-claim string): no constructors that fit these observations without minting a second config/path/id authority.
• Timestamps / durations: none in this diff.

Joins (RC 62946)

gunbc.recurring_failure_mode.subject_and_its_digest_as_independent_parameters: a value and a summary of it must not be independent fields.

• CgroupRetirement no longer carries procs_at_retirement: "empty" beside empty: true; emptiness is the Bool.
• placement_cgroup_members is derived from placement_verdict.pid (plus the watcher pid 1729); 1694 is not restated as prose.
• LeafHeldInit.pid is placement_defect_found.written_pid.
• One CpuBoundStanding on the attempt; placement holds CpuBoundWrittenButUnread for that run; bandwidth holds CpuBoundInterfacePresent. The placement_open line that asked why cpu.max was empty is gone — that question is answered in this PR.
• egress_outcome.reached no longer restates PHY speed/duplex (those live on nic_link_observed).
• Closed-list bullets that restated ping counts, arch, and ARP were dropped.

Review 63014 is correct on every point I checked, and it reverses my earlier merge-ready call on this PR. I am not merging it.

Finding 1 — confirmed. The six rows added as the typed-consumption repair are read by nothing:

kernel_rebuild_owes_cfs_bandwidth  -> its definition + one DeclarationRef in the filed row
memory_current_at_placement        -> its definition + one DeclarationRef
memory_max_at_placement            -> its definition ONLY

And the module-level picture confirms the reviewer's framing exactly. runner_host_filtered_egress is imported — by runner_host_kernel_config.dag, for KernelFeatureRequirement and runner_host_kernel_requirements. Not for any of the new rows. runner_cpu_bandwidth_receipt is imported by nothing at all. So the import edge that makes this look consumed is carrying other declarations; the terminal rows named as the consumption have no consumer of their own.

That is the review's sharpest point and it is right: the repair swapped a module-level dangle for a declaration-level one. §3c — "a data row no fold reads … Only the third is red, and it is red regardless of how well modeled the dangling piece is."

The PR's own filed failure-mode row says the same thing about its only reader (module_cited_only_in_annotation_prose.dag:22): "A second DeclarationRef row that only restates those imports is another prose-grade citation of the same class." The row diagnoses the defect the diff then commits.

Finding 2 — confirmed. data memory_current_at_placement: ByteSize = placement_accounting.memory_current is a bare alias of the field it names, as is memory_max_at_placement, as is data kernel_rebuild_owes_cfs_bandwidth: Bool = cpu_bound_write_refused. §3: "The recurring violation is nicknaming — a second name for one concept." The annotation above correctly identifies the prose restatement as a meaning fork, and then re-mints it as a second declared name for the same field.

Why I am reporting this against myself. I declared this PR merge-ready twice. I verified the tally — approvals, CI, mergeable state — and the shape of the change, and I did not verify that the declarations named as consumers are consumed. That is the third time in this session I have accepted a well-formed artifact that does not execute: I endorsed a decorative witness on this same PR for four rounds, and the class this PR files a row about is the same one. The tally floor is a hygiene check; it is not evidence the change does what was asked, and here it does not.

What this needs. The brief was "typed carriers and a real §3c consumer." The carriers are real. The consumer is not. Two honest paths and I do not think it is my call alone which one lands:

1. Build a genuine consumer — a fold or entry point that reads these rows and does something with them — which is what the brief asked for and is real work, not a patch.
2. Delete the six rows and state the weaker claim, as this PR already correctly did once when it deleted the permanently-green witness.

What must not happen is a third DeclarationRef row asserting the declarations exist. That is the class, not the cure.

Not marking this ready and not merging. Flagging to the operator.

Two reviews now disagree about this PR, so I measured the disputed claim at the current head (3da8e5b49a) rather than counting verdicts. Both are partly right, and the resolution is narrower than either.

Where review 63032 (APPROVE) is correct. The folds are real. runner_host_filtered_egress genuinely matches egress_outcome:

fn bridged_attempt_left_guest_without_egress() -> Bool {
  match egress_outcome {
    GuestEgressEstablished    { via: _ }                  => false
    GuestEgressNotEstablished { reached: _, blocked_at: _ } => true
  }
}

and genuinely folds guest_reachability.transmitted / .received. That is a material improvement over the annotation-only citation this PR set out to fix, and it is not nothing.

Where review 63014 (REQUEST_CHANGES) is correct, and why it decides the question. Following the chain to its terminus:

egress_outcome  ->  fn (a real fold)  ->  data row  ->  nothing

The terminal rows have no readers at this head. Measured:

kernel_rebuild_owes_cfs_bandwidth      0 readers outside its own definition
memory_current_at_placement            0
memory_max_at_placement                0
placement_established_from_both_ends   0

And the module-level argument does not rescue it. Review 63032 says the chain "terminates in a live graph" because runner_host_kernel_config imports this module. That import names exactly two symbols:

import gunbc.runner.runner_host_filtered_egress { KernelFeatureRequirement, runner_host_kernel_requirements }

Neither is any of the rows above. The live import edge is carrying other declarations; it does not reach the new ones.

§3c asks for the consumer and the route by which it reaches that consumer at execution. A fold whose result no consumer reads has not executed in anyone's route — the fold is real and still terminal. So the defect is one level deeper than "annotation-only", not absent.

Separately, and not fixed by any consumer: data kernel_rebuild_owes_cfs_bandwidth: Bool = cpu_bound_write_refused is a bare alias with no fold between it and the name it restates, as are memory_current_at_placement and memory_max_at_placement over placement_accounting's fields. §3 nicknaming, independent of the consumption question.

Correcting myself: my earlier comment said the repair "swapped a module-level dangle for a declaration-level one" and implied the PR does not consume the stranded receipts at all. That was too strong — the folds are genuine. The accurate statement is that the folds are real and their results are unread, so the §3c obligation is still open.

The fix is now small and I think obvious: the terminal data rows add nothing the functions above them do not already say, and three of them are aliases. Deleting them leaves the real folds in place and makes the claim honest — the same move this PR already made correctly when it deleted the permanently-green witness. If instead these rows are meant to be read by something, name that reader and the route.

Not merging on the strength of an approval that the measurement contradicts. Approvals are a hygiene check, not evidence the change does what was asked.
