Substrate slice from #1139 / inbox: free bare Value for Evaluator / PB-Runtime union carriers by renaming the v3 L1 behavior marker to ValueBehavior (no RuntimeValue workaround).

What changed

  • Bare Value freed for runtime / PR-A.1 coproduct use: the L1 marker is no longer declared as type Value {} in src/v3/spec/v3_l1.dag.
  • Marker cache (Dag::populate_primitive_cache): resolves "ValueBehavior"; value_marker() keeps the same Rust API and still returns the marker’s DeclarationId.
  • Bootstrap regenerated (bootstrap_generated.rs, bootstrap_generated_without_parse_surface.rs) via regen_bootstrap.
  • rust.dag / go.dag unchanged — they only import Bind, Branch, Main from v3_l1; they never imported the old Value marker.
  • Tests / docs: lower validation + error text, m1_5_testgen_test / m1_substrate_test, design-reference-resolution-provenance.md, emit/rust_target.rs path comments, parse_corpus_manifest.txt refresh; value_behavior_marker_tests::runtime_value_decl_coexists_with_value_behavior_marker proves a user type Value {} coexists with the renamed marker on Dag::new().

Local verification

  • cargo test -p v3-compiler --lib runtime_value_decl_coexists_with_value_behavior_marker (pass)
  • Branch includes current origin/main (merge no-op at PR open time)

Manager review: scope matches the dispatch. This frees bare Value for the Evaluator/PB runtime coproduct, keeps the existing Rust value_marker() API, updates the marker cache to ValueBehavior, and adds the coexistence regression.

Leaving this ready while CI runs. If CI fails, address only the mechanical fallout from the marker rename / bootstrap regen; do not broaden into the full marker-set rename unless a concrete failure requires it.

spans for v3_l1.dag declarations lagged fresh parse. Regenerated so the
gate matches current authority bytes.

CI fix: regen_bootstrap --verify was red — committed bootstrap_generated*.rs SourceSpan bytes for v3_l1.dag lagged a fresh parse (likely comment/line churn vs last regen). Re-ran regen_bootstrap; verify passes locally. Pushed 8df8dfb7d.

1. Story of the diff

This PR frees the bare declaration name Value in the PB-Runtime flat namespace by renaming the v3 L1 behavior marker to ValueBehavior. The substrate declaration itself changes in src/v3/spec/v3_l1.dag:57, and the bootstrap-generated fixtures preserve the existing declaration IDs while changing the declared marker name to ValueBehavior at src/v3/compiler/src/bootstrap_generated.rs:1023 and src/v3/compiler/src/bootstrap_generated_without_parse_surface.rs:1008.

The runtime cache path is updated at the single bootstrap authority point: Dag::populate_caches now fills substrate_markers.value from "ValueBehavior" rather than "Value" at src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:3347, while the Rust API name value_marker() intentionally stays stable and documents that the underlying declaration is no longer bare Value at src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:2578. The remaining changes align docs, validation error text, integration-test fixtures, and parse manifest hashes with that rename; the new regression test proves that a user/runtime type Value {} can coexist with the cached ValueBehavior marker without aliasing it at src/v3/compiler/src/lib.rs:1664.

2. Invariant categories

  1. LAYER MODEL (substrate vs implementation).

Compliant — this does touch substrate: src/v3/spec/v3_l1.dag:57 changes the marker declaration from bare Value to ValueBehavior. The implementation side keeps a single typed cache authority by resolving that renamed substrate declaration once into substrate_markers.value at src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:3347, rather than adding parallel name-based lookups at consumers.

  1. INVARIANTS.md + modeling-discipline.md.

Compliant — single authority / facts-flow-forward is preserved: downstream code continues to read the typed marker handle via value_marker(), and the cache is populated from one bootstrap lookup at src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:3347. The regression also asserts the important illegal-aliasing boundary: user Value must not alias the marker ID at src/v3/compiler/src/lib.rs:1692.

  1. CODING.md.

Compliant — naming is made explicit without widening the public Rust surface: the existing value_marker() accessor remains stable, and the comment states that only the underlying declaration is ValueBehavior at src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:2578. The validation message is also updated to use the source-level name users will see, ValueBehavior, at src/v3/compiler/src/lower.rs:4208.

  1. TESTING.md.

Compliant — the PR adds a hermetic, behavior-driven regression test using an in-memory source string, not an external toolchain or fixture, at src/v3/compiler/src/lib.rs:1676. The test checks both sides of the contract: bootstrap no longer owns bare Value at src/v3/compiler/src/lib.rs:1671, and a user type Value {} compiles cleanly without disturbing the marker cache at src/v3/compiler/src/lib.rs:1696.

  1. LOCKED DESIGN DECISIONS.

Compliant — the diff updates the design reference for the existing bootstrap marker-cache bridge to name "ValueBehavior" in the documented lookup set at docs/design-reference-resolution-provenance.md:30. I did not see this PR diverge from a locked design decision; it appears to be a naming reconciliation within the already-documented marker-cache bridge.

  1. TRACKED vs UNTRACKED DEBT.

Compliant — the new naming-debt note is bounded and documented: only Value is renamed now, while other markers stay short until a concrete collision forces the same *Behavior pattern at src/v3/spec/v3_l1.dag:64. That gives a bounded bridge and a dissolution trigger; no new TODO/scaffold appears untracked in the diff.

3. Verdict

APPROVE

The PR is a narrow substrate-marker rename with the cache authority, generated bootstrap fixtures, validation text, docs, and regression coverage all aligned. I did not find a diff-cited invariant or testing issue that should block or require follow-up before merge.

Re api-review (7d48d3ab, claude-opus-4-7) — APPROVE + exploratory note. Verified: validate_realization_field_target’s is_behavior_marker closure still builds its allowlist with six declaration_by_name calls (lower.rs ~4136–4143) while Dag::populate_primitive_cache already materializes the same ids in substrate_markers / value_marker() … main_marker(). The observation is accurate; switching to those Option<DeclarationId> accessors would drop repeated name scans and match the “typed handle” story in dag.rs’s cache comment.

No commit on this item: the review explicitly marks that refactor non-blocking and out of scope for the rename slice; doing it here would broaden the PR without a failing gate. Tracking as a reasonable follow-up (small diff: compare target to dag.value_marker(), dag.bind_marker(), … with == Some(id) / zip pattern).

Non-blocking — Strengths

  • src/v3/spec/v3_l1.dag The rename keeps the five-behavior substrate intact while separating the marker name from PB-Runtime's bare Value carrier, and the naming debt is documented, bounded, and trigger-named.
  • src/v3/compiler/src/lib.rs The regression test covers the important flat-namespace case by compiling a user type Value while asserting the cached marker remains ValueBehavior.

✅ No blocking concerns; the mixed docs/code/.dag diff is scoped and the cache, validation, generated fixtures, and tests are aligned.

Item 1 — CI fix relay (23:28:50Z). Verified: origin/session/smart-boar-25 tip is 8df8dfb7d — the regen_bootstrap --verify / bootstrap_generated* SourceSpan resync is already on the branch; nothing further to commit for that note.

Item 2 — api-review manual (7d48d3ab…8df8dfb7d, gpt-5-5-thinking) — APPROVE. Re-checked cited locations: v3_l1.dag marker rename, dag.rs:3347 "ValueBehavior" cache fill + stable value_marker() docs, bootstrap snapshots naming ValueBehavior, lower.rs diagnostic string, provenance doc, coexistence test in lib.rs, bounded debt note in v3_l1.dag. Matches the review’s story; no code changes requested.

  • Comparison: origin/main @ 8934d656 ... review/pr-1231-8df8dfb7 @ 8df8dfb7
  • Thinking: 100s wall

Findings: None. The diff is a consistent rename of the v3_l1 L1 marker from Value to ValueBehavior, with bootstrap caches, lowering validation, generated snapshots, corpus manifest, and integration test fixtures updated together—no second authority for the same marker. Comments in v3_l1.dag, dag.rs, and rust_target.rs document why (PB-Runtime / flat namespace) and correct stale dsl/std/v3_l1.dag paths to src/v3/spec/v3_l1.dag, which matches “documentation describes live state” rather than violating it. The new test in lib.rs is a single, named behavioral claim (user type Value {} coexists with the cached marker and does not alias it); using the pipeline there is appropriate because the property is cross-stage. Nothing here trips fail-closed, illegal-state, facts-flow-forward, single-authority, or the new-enum classification rules in the pinned rubric.

Verdict: APPROVE — Narrowly scoped naming fix plus a targeted regression test and doc path fixes; no concrete violations of INVARIANTS.md, docs/modeling-discipline.md, CODING.md, or TESTING.md observed in this diff.

Re api-review (schedule, 7d48d3ab, codex). Re-verified on current session/smart-boar-25: v3_l1.dag still has ValueBehavior + bounded naming-debt note; runtime_value_decl_coexists_with_value_behavior_marker still locks user type Value {} vs cached marker. Review is non-blocking / no findings — no commit from this item.

Re api-review (schedule, 8df8dfb7, composer-2) — APPROVE / no findings. Spot-checked: v3_l1 → ValueBehavior, single cache fill "ValueBehavior" in populate_primitive_cache, generated snapshot name ValueBehavior, docs/comments point at src/v3/spec/v3_l1.dag, coexistence test still encodes the non-aliasing claim. No commit — review requests no changes.

  • Comparison: origin/main @ ed1bc8d2 ... review/pr-1231-ad8bc5f7 @ ad8bc5f7
  • Thinking: 80s wall

Findings

None. The diff only renames the L1 substrate marker to ValueBehavior, wires bootstrap/cache/validation/tests to that name, fixes stale v3_l1.dag path comments, and adds a focused regression test that user type Value {} does not alias the marker — aligned with P2 (single authoritative marker name) and TESTING.md (behavior named in the test). Nothing here implies duplicate authorities, bridges, or fail-open paths.

Verdict

APPROVE — Narrow, mechanical rename with consumers and snapshots updated together; the lib.rs test gives a clear receipt that PB-Runtime can keep bare Value without colliding with the L1 marker cache.

…audit) (#1235)

* docs(briefs): PB-Runtime ↔ R2-Evaluator convergence verification matrix (audit)

Per dispatch on inbox #1149 — bounded pre-stage docs-only audit
mapping design-pb-runtime-interpreter.md §§2, 3.2, 5.4, 6, 7.1
convergence verification obligations onto R2-Evaluator surfaces and
the PB Manager brief.

Authors docs/briefs/r2-pb-runtime-evaluator-convergence-matrix.md as
an AUDIT artifact (not a lane authority — every row cites an existing
locked authority). Rows cover:
1. Runtime-value `Value` shape (anti-bridge invariant #6)
2. EvalFrame/EvalStateStack boundary (anti-bridge invariant #2 carve-out)
3. 5-primitive dispatch constraint (§3.1 mapping note)
4. TestClaim pb_runtime_equivalent_to_evaluator_on_corpus (§7.1 +
   DifferentialEquals; ReleaseDeferredClaim staging until forward refs
   resolve)
5. Anti-bridge invariant #1 (no PB-Runtime divergence — covered by
   Row 4)
6. Anti-bridge invariant #2 (no new Value primitives without §P1)
7. Anti-bridge invariant #6 (no fork between Item 4's Value and
   R2-Evaluator's runtime-value model)

Plus a prerequisite-state table verified against origin/main HEAD:
#1231 OPEN; PR-A.1 BLOCKED; PR-A.2 transitively BLOCKED; Map / Diff-
Equals / ReleaseDeferredClaim substrate live; net dispatch order
spelled out.

STOP-conditions report: existing docs cover the matrix; no
contradictions found; no missing authority. Audit reportable as-is.

Updates r2-pure-bootstrap-manager.md "Sub-briefs (authored)" list to
register the matrix alongside the T-FixedPoint and BinShim planning
briefs. No claim of implementation progress.

Non-goals (verbatim): no substrate edits, no Value carrier edits, no
evaluator implementation, no PB-Runtime .dag authoring, no
TestPredicate invention.

* docs(briefs): tighten Row 7 — PB-Runtime imports PR-A.1's Value carrier

Per manager review on PR #1235: prior Row 7 wording said PB-Runtime
authors `dsl/std/runtime/value.dag` "or wherever PB Manager picks,"
implying license for a parallel Value carrier path. That contradicts
the matrix's purpose (no fork / shared structural definition).

Tightened:
- Row 7: PR-A.1 is the single `Value` carrier authority at
  src/v3/std/runtime/value.dag. PB-Runtime *imports* that exact path;
  it does NOT declare a parallel Value carrier. Carrier relocation is
  a single substrate event under §P1, not a license for two parallel
  declarations.
- Net-dispatch-order step 5: PB-Runtime imports the PR-A.1 carrier
  and declares only `evaluate(...)` + per-Behavior rules in the
  runtime-behavior module. Path of the runtime-behavior module is PB
  dispatch detail; the file does not contain a second Value type.

No substrate edits, no scope change.

* WIP: neat-boar-747

* docs(briefs): mark Row 4 enforcement as PLANNED, not live authority

Address codex BLOCKING review on PR #1235 (sha 3531a34): Row 4's
"structural enforcement" language read as if the equivalence carrier
is live authority, when in fact only the predicate VARIANT
(DifferentialEquals) is live — the TestClaim consuming it and the
forward DeclarationRefs (pb_runtime_evaluate, r2_evaluator_evaluate,
corpus) are NOT yet declared on main and are R3-worker dispatch
outputs.

Tightened:
- Row 4 verification cell now opens "PLANNED, not yet authored"; the
  substrate-predicate cell distinguishes "Predicate variant LIVE;
  declaration NOT" so the live/planned split is unmissable. The
  prerequisite-gate cell adds an explicit "until that worker
  dispatches, this row's enforcement is paper-only" caveat.
- Row 5 "Anti-bridge invariant #1" verification cell now says
  "Enforcement gated on Row 4's TestClaim landing"; until Row 4 is
  authored, the invariant is "held by reviewer convention," not by
  an executable substrate fact.
- Net-dispatch-order step 7 now spells out the worker-authoring step
  before declaring "structurally enforced"; the transition from
  "reviewer convention" to "structurally enforced" is the gate.
- Prerequisite-state table adds an explicit row for the
  pb_runtime_equivalent_to_evaluator_on_corpus TestClaim declaration
  marked NOT YET AUTHORED.

No new authority, no scope change; just removes implicit
already-live framing from the equivalence enforcement language.

* docs(briefs): defer Value-carrier path to PR-A.1; cite PR-A.2's assumption

Per codex non-blocking note on PR #1235 (sha f2db9a3): the matrix
named src/v3/std/runtime/value.dag while the cited PR-A.2 audit assumes
src/v3/std/runtime.dag. Since this audit explicitly says it does not
introduce authority, picking a path between the two reads as
accidental new authority and creates two competing runtime module
locations (P2 / single-authority concern).

Tightened all four occurrences (Row 1, Row 7, dispatch-order step 2,
dispatch-order step 5, prerequisite-state PR-A.1 row): the carrier
path is PR-A.1's call at landing time; PR-A.2 audit's working
assumption is src/v3/std/runtime.dag and is now cited explicitly so
future readers see the live convention rather than an audit-invented
path.

No new authority introduced; matrix's "no new authority" claim is now
honest about the path question.

* docs(briefs): retract ReleaseDeferredClaim staging — variants are fixture-specific

Address codex REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1235 (sha a007573): the matrix
described `ReleaseDeferredClaim` as a "live substrate path for staging
such claims pre-resolution," but per the variant's own scaffold comment
at src/v3/std/verification.dag:218-220 it is "R1 release-acceptance
concession marker. Use only in release-acceptance fixtures with explicit
Director sign-off; this is not a generic escape hatch for arbitrary
TestSuites." The runner validates THREE specific fixture-local role
markers (R1GateMarker / TargetLaneMarker / ReleaseAuthorityDoc) and
requires explicit Director sign-off — none of which Row 4's PB-Runtime
equivalence claim has. SubstrateResearchDeferredClaim is even narrower
(TC1 lens-eta-equivalence fixture only with its own three role markers).

Both variants are fixture-specific by construction; using them as a
generic forward-ref staging mechanism would invent authority this
audit explicitly disclaims.

Retracted across all 5 occurrences:
- Row 4 prereq-gate cell: "No live staging carrier exists for this
  row" — names both fixture-specific variants and their scaffold
  scope; routes any future generic-staging need to §P1.
- Prerequisite-state table row 45: variant marked "LIVE but
  fixture-specific... not usable as Row 4 staging."
- Prerequisite-state table row 46 (TestClaim row): drops
  "staging variant... live" and reflects that the TestClaim cannot
  be authored until forward refs resolve.
- Dispatch-order steps 6+7: collapsed to a sequencing constraint
  ("authored once all three forward DeclarationRefs have landed");
  no staging-variant choice claimed.
- STOP-condition bullet: matches with "no live generic forward-ref
  staging carrier" framing.
- Cross-refs footer: variants annotated as fixture-only.

No new authority introduced; pure correction of mis-cited substrate
contract.

… 3 expansion + §4 sub-item 5 (Mgr dispatch) + r3-program-plan thesis-state drift reframe

Director-tier R2-Evaluator audit (PR #3013 Gap 3 precondition deliverable from msg_cd2d8d7d) surfaced 3 structural findings:

(a) R2 closed-with-residuals 2026-04-29 16:34Z (#1275; ROADMAP.md:512) with 5 sub-lanes carried as r3-continuation: runtime_value_model_structural (in-flight #1197/#1228/#1231), body_evaluator_structural (not-started), lens_application_complete_reflection (in-flight #1191), witness_construction_structural (not-started), cross_target_equivalence_harness_structural (not-started). Closure-ledger row stale @ #1191-#1231 era (HEAD is #3013+).

(b) R3 Evaluator Mgr merry-gull-128 (#1743) ABSENT from current subtree at HEAD. Authority dispersed across 3 R3 Mgrs without single owner — r2-structure.md:73 anti-pattern reincarnation under R3-tier-slice procedural wrapper.

(c) Brief surface comprehensive (r2-evaluator-manager.md + 4 sub-briefs + 10+ PR-A-E + R3-tier per-slice briefs); not the gap.

(d) Director recommends re-spawn evaluator Mgr as 4th R3 Mgr lane.

…ereq + use r2-closure-ledger authority for sub-lanes per Director notes msg_f0a54769 PR #3013

Director note msg_f0a54769 surfaced 3 substantive shape issues on the 85c230b Director-audit absorption:

Note 1 (sub-lane name authority): the 5 R2-Evaluator sub-lane names (runtime_value_model_structural / body_evaluator_structural / lens_application_complete_reflection / witness_construction_structural / cross_target_equivalence_harness_structural) live in `docs/r2-closure-ledger.md:250-263`, NOT as §1.8 row IDs in `docs/r3-program-plan.md`. Prior draft conflated authorities ("PASSING in §1.8" mismatches the actual artifact). PM-selected path (α): use sub-lane names as predicate authority per `feedback_parallel_representation_debt` — don't introduce 5 new §1.8 rows for already-named ledger content. Predicate is cell-level check of `docs/r2-closure-ledger.md` (each sub-lane row status=green at HEAD); closure-ledger row stale @ #1191-#1231 era requires refresh first.

Note 2 (staffing-as-criterion vs precondition): staffing/dispatch shape is a PRECONDITION for execution, not a close criterion for the substrate-debt itself. If a Mgr exists but doesn't close the 5 sub-lanes, Gap 3 isn't closed; if alternative dispatch (fold/ad-hoc) closes them, Gap 3 IS closed. Moved "(ii) R3 Evaluator Mgr lane owner identified" from close criterion to new "Dispatch staffing prereq" section. Close criterion now purely substrate-debt-shaped.

Note 3 (sequencing): re-spawn AFTER operator §4 sub-item 5 ratification, NOT before. Sequence explicit in Dispatch staffing prereq section per `feedback_construction_over_ratchets` adjacent class — don't author the Mgr until the operator-decision substrate cashes.

…ncing (DRAFT) (#3013)

* docs(r3): R3 actual-close plan — 10 adversarial gaps with disposition + dispatch sequencing (DRAFT pending Director + operator ratification)

Operator directive 2026-05-13 verbatim: "can we start on the planning docs to get to ACTUAL r3 close? like all of our adversarial questions answered positively? i feel like the planning for this stuff has been continuously dropped".

PM-authored planning doc replacing "viz-as-SoT closed_at + DECLARED-strings-are-drift" framing with explicit per-gap disposition for the 10 substantive counterfactuals surfaced by today's adversarial audit:

1. PB-0 zero hand-Rust (177+ entries in EXPECTED_HAND_AUTHORED_NON_TEST; gate #8 DECLARED)
2. L5 cross-target consistency (gate #15 DECLARED; no Python/Go executable emission on main)
3. Self-host fixed point R3-strong (gate #16 R1-horizon only; 4 joint preconditions deferred)
4. Lens behavioral parity (3 of 4 lenses NOT behaviorally complete; gates #79/#81/#82/#83)
5. Tests-as-data completeness (gate #84 Cluster M Phase 3 bulk-port pending; load-bearing-blocking)
6. v2 retirement terminal (gate #97 coherence-only; src/v2/ exists at HEAD)
7. T-WAD FULL R3 (gates #98-#103 all DECLARED; ci.yml still hand-edited)
8. Bootstrap-seed Rust survivors (folded into Gap 1)
9. Show-the-correct-code (no §1.8 gate exists for THESIS:103-105)
10. Close-audit doc absent (interrogation §8 self-check has no execution log on main)

For each gap: promise verbatim + HEAD evidence + what's missing + plan to cash (owner, sub-program, effort estimate) + close criterion predicate.

§2 dispatch sequencing: 6 phases A-F mapped to Substrate Mgr / Verification Mgr / Debt-Paydown Mgr / Director-tier coordination / PM-direct.

§3 total time-to-actual-close: 8-12 weeks optimistic; 12-20 realistic; 6+ months if PB-0 retirement is the longest tail and can't parallelize aggressively.

§4 operator decision points: 4 binary IN-R3 / R4-defer choices that determine actual R3 scope (PB-0, L5 cross-target, self-host R3-strong, show-correct-code).

§5 process discipline (preventing future drop): single authoritative plan doc, weekly PM closure-cadence message, per-gap closure-PR template, Gap 10 (close-audit doc) authored FIRST as receipt mechanism.

Authority:
- Operator directive 2026-05-13 (planning request)
- Today's adversarial audit findings (counterfactual evidence against viz-as-SoT closure claim)
- THESIS.md promise enumeration + r3-close-interrogation.md §-by-§ adversarial structure
- §1.8 closure-authority ledger gate state at HEAD

Status: DRAFT pending Director ratification + operator scope-decision approval before dispatch.

* docs(r3): Gap 4 — cite closed PR #2860 as content-source for parallelism cementing-receipt re-launch (Director msg_b3324a05 flag)

Director (msg_b3324a05) flagged PR #2860 (G87-C parallelism cementing receipt + ratchet repair, closed 2026-05-13T16:45:44Z under operator cleanup directive) as load-bearing for counterfactual #4 / Gap 4 parallelism behavioral parity. The PR content is retrievable via `gh pr view 2860 --json body` so the Gap 4 cementing-receipt re-launch doesn't author from scratch.

Adds PR #2860 reference to Gap 4 sub-program as step 2 (between F-α and F-β.1), with concrete artifact paths + dissolution-trigger naming + relationship-to-F-α clarification (cementing-receipt is gate-#87 ratchet-discipline level, distinct from F-α Stage 2e walker port which is substrate work).

Both are required for full Gap 4 closure. Cementing-receipt re-launch is cheaper (PR #2860 substance ready); F-α walker port is the larger substrate scope.

Authority:
- Director msg_b3324a05 flag (2026-05-13)
- PR #2860 substance per gh API retrieval
- §1.8 row #87 lens_cementing_test_discipline_complete (CONSUMER_LANDED + PASSING; ratchet fires on inventory mismatch)

* docs(r3): integrate Director msg_cd2d8d7d 8 substantive feedback items into close plan

Director (zesty-bear-812) ratified PR #3013 structure + dispatch sequencing + §5 process discipline. 8 substantive items applied:

1. **§4 R4-carve framing collision** — Per `project_no_r4_carves_directive` (Brian 2026-05-08), R4-carve is NOT freely available as default. §4 reframed: 4 decisions default to IN-R3; explicit override required with stated structural-unblockable reason. §5 process-discipline note added.

2. **Gap 3 R2-Evaluator audit** — Director-tier deliverable picked up by zesty-bear-812 (this week per msg_cd2d8d7d). §6 deliverables list tracks.

3. **Gap 4 sequential cadence as Mgr-bandwidth lever** — Effort estimate split: single-Mgr sequential 4-8wk vs parallelized-via-2nd-Substrate-Mgr ~2-4wk. Surfaced as tightening lever, not foreclosed.

4. **Gap 5 close-criterion header-marker filter** — Predicate amended to `xargs grep -L "// AUTO-GENERATED FROM .dag" | wc -l == 0` so generated-from-.dag tests are filterable. Substrate prereq: code-gen emits header line; if not present at HEAD, lands in Gap 5 Phase 3 ratchet.

5. **Gap 6 transitive-dependency depth** — Explicit 5+ deep chain call-out: Gap 6 ← Gap 3 ← {Gap 1, R2-Evaluator, R2-Grounding, Row-B}. Gap 6 framed as close-ceremony terminal gate (last 2 weeks of R3 close).

6. **Gap 9 threshold = operator decision** — ≥80% pragmatic relaxation is operator-decision-shaped, not Director-decision. §4 now surfaces (a) IN-R3 vs not-R3-promised choice + (b) if IN-R3, threshold = 100% (THESIS-correct) or ≥X% pragmatic with named-residual list. Per `project_no_r4_carves_directive`, the not-R3-promised reframe is structurally an R4-carve requiring operator override.

7. **Gap 10 timeline calibrated** — Skeleton 1-2 days (PM-direct, unblocked, immediate); execution 1-2 weeks (Verification Mgr serial) or 3-5 days (ctrl-build parallel). Overall ~1-2 weeks for full landing.

8. **Phase F bookkeeping downstream of close-audit-doc verdict** — §2 Phase F reworded: §1.8 manifest strings sync to close-audit-doc predicate-execution outcome (View-4-authoritative per `feedback_r3_close_three_views_drift`), NOT to procedural `closed_at` markers. Sequencing: close-audit-doc lands first; bookkeeping PR consumes that doc as authority. Avoids procedural-closure trap.

§6 pending-decisions list updated:
- Director ratification: checked ✓
- Operator §4 confirmations: 4 sub-items per gap
- Director-tier deliverables in-flight per msg_cd2d8d7d (4 items)
- Operator Phase A authorization

Authority:
- Director ratification msg_cd2d8d7d (2026-05-13) — substance verdict + 8 feedback items
- `project_no_r4_carves_directive` (Brian 2026-05-08, 5d-old memory but still presumptively in force; surfaced for operator confirmation)
- `feedback_r3_close_three_views_drift` View 4 authoritative (Director memory update post-msg_b3324a05)

3 non-blocking exploratory observations from claude APPROVE review on PR #3013 sha a4d1608 at 2026-05-13T18:03:26Z:

1. **§4 PM-recommendation explicitness across all 4 gaps** — previously only Gap 1 stated "do not defer." Added explicit PM-recommended IN-R3 + reasoning for Gaps 2/3/9 with each R4-carve's specific dilution impact (omni-emission falsifier loss, self-host thesis dilution, THESIS:103-105 absolute promise drop). §4 preamble now states cross-gap PM view + per-gap recommendation.

2. **Gap 9 substrate-shape canvas-promotion** — `correction: Option<Witness>` field commitment is buried in planning-doc prose; promoted to Substrate-Mgr-canvas-before-worker-dispatch step. Canvas authoring + Director ratification gates worker dispatch.

3. **§3 velocity-citation discipline** — most estimates were unsourced beyond Gap 1's `feedback_pre_authored_brief_queue` reference. Added explicit caveat: Gaps 2/3/5/6/7/9 are PM-prior-cycle-experience-based; final ratified version cites per-gap velocity reference + first weekly closure-cadence message calibrates against actual landing-date data.

* docs(r3-close): retract Gap 5 boundary carve-out + Gap 9 pragmatic-relaxation per codex BLOCKING PR #3013

Two substantive close-criteria fixes per codex BLOCKING 2026-05-13T18:19:56Z:

**Finding 1 — Gap 5 boundary carve-out violates 0-residual** (TESTING.md L212-217 +
docs/design-pure-bootstrap-zero.md:41,138):
- Removed `-not -path "*/boundary/*"` from gate #84 close predicate
- Added authority citation: TESTING.md "🔄 RETRACTED 2026-04-25" + 0-floor target
- Boundary tests ARE counted; migrate to ExecuteCommand-based .dag TestClaim per cascade

**Finding 2 — Gap 9 pragmatic-relaxation dilutes THESIS absolute** (THESIS.md
"show the correct code" reads as absolute promise):
- Removed "Pragmatic relaxation (≥X%)" alternative from Gap 9 close criterion
- Removed §4 operator sub-decision (b) threshold negotiation
- Close criterion is 100% absolute; non-100% requires R4-carve override of
  project_no_r4_carves_directive (NOT within-R3 threshold negotiation)

**Additional: Phase F adversarial re-pass discipline** (operator directive
2026-05-13 — final closeout will be adversarial analysis):
- Phase F now explicitly includes operator+PM adversarial re-pass against
  interrogation doc + close plan + §1.8 row statuses
- Bookkeeping PR sequencing updated: depends on adversarial-re-pass verdict,
  not just predicate execution outcome
- Symmetric to 2026-05-13 adversarial sweep that surfaced 10 counterfactuals;
  applied at close ceremony to confirm none survived

* docs(r3-close): retract fabricated Tier-2 R4-deferral authority per briansrls BLOCKING PR #3013

briansrls BLOCKING 2026-05-13T18:22:57Z at docs/r3-actual-close-plan.md:48:

> "The PB-0 alternative disposition cites design-pure-bootstrap-zero.md as
> allowing Tier-2 R4 deferral for grounding submodules, but that authority
> sets a 0 hand-authored in-tree Rust floor, so this creates an unauthorized
> escape hatch against the Pure Bootstrap target."

**Verified**: grep -nE "tier[- ]2|grounding|R4|defer|carve" against
docs/design-pure-bootstrap-zero.md returns ONLY one hit (L131: historical
TESTING.md carve-out which the doc explicitly retracts under 0-floor target).
Zero references to "Tier-2", "grounding submodules deferred", or any
R4-deferral carve-out mechanism. The "Tier-2 R4-deferred per
design-pure-bootstrap-zero.md" citation in Gap 1 alternative-disposition was
fabricated authority — an unauthorized escape hatch against the absolute
0-floor target.

**Fix**:
- Removed the fabricated citation
- Explicit statement: PB-0 design doc admits no internal escape hatch
- R4-carve of PB-0 subsets requires explicit operator override of
  project_no_r4_carves_directive (2026-05-08), naming specific subset +
  structural-unblockable reason — not citation of an unauthorized escape
- PM-recommendation preserved (do NOT R4-defer; standing directive applies)

Symmetric to the Gap 9 pragmatic-relaxation fix at commit 870f6ce — both
findings reflect the same anti-pattern of converting absolute thesis claims
into negotiable thresholds via fabricated/imputed authority.

* docs(r3-close): replace textual AUTO-GENERATED marker with structural EXPECTED_HAND_AUTHORED_TEST list-emptied predicate per briansrls BLOCKING PR #3013

briansrls BLOCKING 2026-05-13T18:22:57Z at docs/r3-actual-close-plan.md:183:

> "The gate #84 close predicate uses the `// AUTO-GENERATED FROM .dag`
> comment as the authority for generated tests, which can pass with
> hand-authored Rust carrying the marker and does not prove the THESIS
> tests-as-data claim."

**Verified**: this is exactly the feedback_no_textual_enforcement_bridges
anti-pattern — "never propose grep/regex as interim enforcement; text-gating
'be structural' defeats itself." A textual comment is gameable; a developer
could add `// AUTO-GENERATED FROM .dag` to a hand-authored file to bypass
the ratchet. The THESIS claim ("every Rust test ports to .dag or is
generated") is structural and requires a structural predicate.

**Fix**: replaced the textual-marker predicate with the structural
EXPECTED_HAND_AUTHORED_TEST list-emptied authority — the same ratchet Gap 1
uses for EXPECTED_HAND_AUTHORED_NON_TEST. Every hand-authored test entry
must be named on the list (PR-template enforcement); migrations remove
entries; close fires when list empties. The list discriminates structurally,
not textually.

Preserved the no-boundary-carve-out authority citations (separate codex
BLOCKING) — boundary entries are named on EXPECTED_HAND_AUTHORED_TEST and
dissolve through migration like any other entry, no separate carve-out.

* docs(r3-close): retract Option<Witness> shape per briansrls BLOCKING PR #3013 — Practice-2 carrier refinement

briansrls BLOCKING 2026-05-13T18:22:57Z at docs/r3-actual-close-plan.md:277:

> "The proposed correction: Option<Witness> shape leaves 'diagnostic
> without correction' representable even though the THESIS-correct path
> requires diagnostics to point to the structurally correct program."

**Verified** against three converging memory authorities:
- feedback_state_space_vs_behavioral_invariants — "check if the type admits
  illegal state combinations; type enforcement > API enforcement"
- feedback_optional_models_recovery_as_exception — "T? where absence is the
  norm conceals plurality"
- feedback_practice_2_vs_4_same_variant_vs_cross_variant — Practice-2 carrier
  refinement when the redundant/illegal state crosses variant boundaries

Option<Witness> admits None which structurally represents "diagnostic without
correction" — exactly the state THESIS.md "show the correct code" forbids
absolutely. The type itself admits the illegal state; behavioral checks
("did this fired diagnostic produce a correction?") are API-tier enforcement
that the carrier-tier should subsume.

**Fix**: substrate-shape constraint added to Gap 9 sub-program step 4: canvas
authors MUST commit `correction: Witness` (non-optional) — Practice-2 carrier
refinement makes diagnostic-without-correction unrepresentable by construction.
Anti-pattern symmetric to Gap 9 pragmatic-relaxation fix at 870f6ce (both
findings convert absolute THESIS claim into expressible-but-forbidden state).

* docs(r3-close): address 3 codex BLOCKING + 1 non-blocking on PR #3013

codex BLOCKING 2026-05-13T18:22:57Z (sha f05359f) — 3 root-causes + 1 improvement:

**B1 — Tier-2 feature-deferral example removed entirely** (Gap 1 alternative-disposition):
Prior fix at a973064 retained the fabricated example in retraction-framing.
Codex stronger ask: "remove the example OR require operator-approved amendment
to PB-zero authority". Reframed: no Tier-2 example survives this section; any
R4-carve requires BOTH (1) override of project_no_r4_carves_directive AND
(2) amendment to docs/design-pure-bootstrap-zero.md authority text adding a
per-subset deferral carrier. Neither alone is sufficient.

**B2 — Generator-manifest positive structural authority** (Gap 5 close criterion):
Prior fix at 29684a0 gave negative authority (list-emptied) but codex asks
positive form. Added dual predicate: (a) EXPECTED_HAND_AUTHORED_TEST = empty
[negative] + (b) generator-manifest maps each surviving test → its .dag source
+ regeneration-byte-equality fail-close on drift [positive]. Catches orphan
generated files that negative form alone misses. Substrate prereq: manifest
carrier authored as Cluster M Phase 3 expansion.

**B3 — Deferral carrier with named reason** (Gap 9 substrate-shape):
Prior fix at 5872dae had correction: Witness covering only the 100% path.
Codex asks separation of absolute-thesis vs pragmatic-residual into named
carrier variants. Reshaped to sum Correction = LiveCorrection { witness } |
DeferredCorrection { reason, retirement_plan }. Diagnostic.correction is
mandatory Correction (not Option). Residual is structurally named with
retirement-plan accountability; gate #84/#106 close requires every
DeferredCorrection ratchetable to zero per its own retirement plan.

**NB1 — Ledger-derived row-count** (Gap 10 close criterion):
Hard-coded "ALL 105 rows" rotted as soon as Gap 9 proposed row #106. Per
feedback_no_snapshot_integers_in_briefs: derive count from §1.8 ledger at
execution time via grep enumeration; Gap 9 row #106 + subsequent additions
automatically included.

* docs(r3-close): close §6/§4 INVARIANTS P2 violation + footer drift per cursor APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS PR #3013

cursor/composer-2 APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS 2026-05-13T18:35:17Z:

**Finding 1 — INVARIANTS P2 violation (§6 vs §4 duplicate Gap 9 authority)**:
§6 operator checklist still offered "ratify threshold = 100% (THESIS-correct) OR
≥X% (pragmatic, X TBD); (b) override with not-R3-promised reframe" — exactly the
within-R3 threshold negotiation that §4 retracted in the prior fix at 870f6ce.
Two "authoritative" asks for the same Gap 9 decision = INVARIANTS P2 single-place-
for-the-fact violation.

**Fix**: rewrote §6 Gap 9 bullet to match §4 — single binary decision (IN-R3 at
100% absolute OR R4-carve via explicit operator override of
project_no_r4_carves_directive). No threshold negotiation; no sub-decision (b)
since §4 removed it. §4 is now the single authority for the Gap 9 disposition.

**Finding 2 (exploratory) — §6 vs footer drift**:
§6 line 453 marks "Director ratifies this plan structure — APPROVED 2026-05-13"
✓ but footer at line 471 still said "DRAFT pending Director ratification +
operator scope approval". Director already ratified structure per msg_cd2d8d7d;
only operator scope approval is pending.

**Fix**: tightened footer to "Director structure-ratified 2026-05-13; DRAFT
pending operator scope approval (§4 IN-R3 confirmations + Phase A dispatch
authorization)" — preserves the actual gating state without contradicting §6
checklist.

* docs(r3-close): align Gap 9 close criterion to sum-variant Correction carrier per codex BLOCKING #11273 PR #3013

Prior fix at 9d763dd ratified `sum Correction { LiveCorrection | DeferredCorrection }` substrate-shape canvas (Practice-2 carrier refinement: nullable `Option<Witness>` admits illegal "diagnostic without correction" state). But the close criterion still read `correction: Witness` + `Some(_)` — the retracted Option shape it was meant to replace. P2 single-authority violation: two incompatible carrier shapes for the same Diagnostic.correction field in adjacent text.

Rewrote close criterion as:
- Structural (compiler-enforced): every Diagnostic carries mandatory `correction: Correction` field (sum-variant, no Option-wrapping)
- Variant-tally (zero-DeferredCorrection): every fired Diagnostic in test corpus is LiveCorrection variant; count of DeferredCorrection = 0
- Substrate ratchet: every DeferredCorrection entry ratchetable to zero per its own retirement_plan field

Preserved both retraction citations (codex BLOCKING #11254 pragmatic-relaxation + briansrls Option<Witness>) as audit trail. Close criterion now matches the canvas substrate-shape commitment by construction.

* docs(r3-close): absorb Director R2-Evaluator audit msg_82b9c4bb — Gap 3 expansion + §4 sub-item 5 (Mgr dispatch) + r3-program-plan thesis-state drift reframe

Director-tier R2-Evaluator audit (PR #3013 Gap 3 precondition deliverable from msg_cd2d8d7d) surfaced 3 structural findings:

(a) R2 closed-with-residuals 2026-04-29 16:34Z (#1275; ROADMAP.md:512) with 5 sub-lanes carried as r3-continuation: runtime_value_model_structural (in-flight #1197/#1228/#1231), body_evaluator_structural (not-started), lens_application_complete_reflection (in-flight #1191), witness_construction_structural (not-started), cross_target_equivalence_harness_structural (not-started). Closure-ledger row stale @ #1191-#1231 era (HEAD is #3013+).

(b) R3 Evaluator Mgr merry-gull-128 (#1743) ABSENT from current subtree at HEAD. Authority dispersed across 3 R3 Mgrs without single owner — r2-structure.md:73 anti-pattern reincarnation under R3-tier-slice procedural wrapper.

(c) Brief surface comprehensive (r2-evaluator-manager.md + 4 sub-briefs + 10+ PR-A-E + R3-tier per-slice briefs); not the gap.

(d) Director recommends re-spawn evaluator Mgr as 4th R3 Mgr lane.

PM execution (bundled per feedback_bundle_workstreams_per_pr):

1. r3-actual-close-plan.md Gap 3 expansion: cite all 5 sub-lanes explicitly; reframe R2-Evaluator HEAD evidence from "landed" to "closed-with-residuals with 5 sub-lane debt"; note merry-gull-128 absence; close-criterion now requires (i) 5 sub-lanes ratchet-to-PASSING OR per-sub-lane R4-carve carrier with named retirement plan (substrate-shape symmetry with Gap 9 DeferredCorrection discipline), AND (ii) §4 sub-item 5 Mgr-dispatch disposition ratified.

2. r3-actual-close-plan.md §4 sub-item 5 (subtree-shape decision): R3 Evaluator Mgr dispatch with 3 operator sub-options — (a) re-spawn 4th lane PM+Director recommended, (b) fold into existing R3 Mgrs with named risk, (c) Director-direct ad-hoc PM-does-not-recommend per r2-structure.md:73 retraction. §6 checklist updated to track.

* docs(r3-close): split Gap 3 close criterion from dispatch staffing prereq + use r2-closure-ledger authority for sub-lanes per Director notes msg_f0a54769 PR #3013

Director note msg_f0a54769 surfaced 3 substantive shape issues on the 85c230b Director-audit absorption:

Note 1 (sub-lane name authority): the 5 R2-Evaluator sub-lane names (runtime_value_model_structural / body_evaluator_structural / lens_application_complete_reflection / witness_construction_structural / cross_target_equivalence_harness_structural) live in `docs/r2-closure-ledger.md:250-263`, NOT as §1.8 row IDs in `docs/r3-program-plan.md`. Prior draft conflated authorities ("PASSING in §1.8" mismatches the actual artifact). PM-selected path (α): use sub-lane names as predicate authority per `feedback_parallel_representation_debt` — don't introduce 5 new §1.8 rows for already-named ledger content. Predicate is cell-level check of `docs/r2-closure-ledger.md` (each sub-lane row status=green at HEAD); closure-ledger row stale @ #1191-#1231 era requires refresh first.

Note 2 (staffing-as-criterion vs precondition): staffing/dispatch shape is a PRECONDITION for execution, not a close criterion for the substrate-debt itself. If a Mgr exists but doesn't close the 5 sub-lanes, Gap 3 isn't closed; if alternative dispatch (fold/ad-hoc) closes them, Gap 3 IS closed. Moved "(ii) R3 Evaluator Mgr lane owner identified" from close criterion to new "Dispatch staffing prereq" section. Close criterion now purely substrate-debt-shaped.

Note 3 (sequencing): re-spawn AFTER operator §4 sub-item 5 ratification, NOT before. Sequence explicit in Dispatch staffing prereq section per `feedback_construction_over_ratchets` adjacent class — don't author the Mgr until the operator-decision substrate cashes.

* docs(r3-close): operator-ratification recorded — all 4 IN-R3 + §4 sub-item 5 re-spawn (a) + Phase A authorized PR #3013

Operator (briansrls) ratification 2026-05-13 via direct PM dispatch:

- Items 1-4 (R3 scope decisions): ALL IN-R3 confirmed per project_no_r4_carves_directive default. No R4-carves.
  - Gap 1 (PB-0): full 177-entry retirement
  - Gap 2 (L5 cross-target): full 3-target Python+Go
  - Gap 3 (self-host R3-strong): 4-joint-precondition cascade
  - Gap 9 (show-correct-code): 100% absolute (zero DeferredCorrection per sum-variant carrier)

- Item 5 (R3 Evaluator Mgr dispatch subtree-shape decision): (a) re-spawn as 4th R3 Mgr lane confirmed. Director (zesty-bear-812) executes per pre-authorization at msg_d456b60d.

- Phase A immediate dispatch authorized (implicit in ratification). Close-audit doc skeleton + §1.8 row #106 authoring proceeds PM-direct post-merge.

§6 checklist updated: all operator-decision boxes checked. Director-tier deliverable R2-Evaluator audit also marked complete (msg_82b9c4bb 2026-05-13; absorbed at 85c230b + 97cfb9d). Footer status updated from "DRAFT pending operator scope approval" to "operator fully ratified 2026-05-13; READY FOR DISPATCH post-merge".

* docs(r3-close): absorb codex BLOCKING #11284 + reframe alternative-disposition class per operator §4 ratification PR #3013

Codex BLOCKING #11284 (2 findings on 97cfb9d):

F1 — `docs/r3-actual-close-plan.md:11` closure target generically allowed any adversarial gap to be "explicitly R4-deferred", semantically reintroducing a carve-out path the design-pure-bootstrap-zero.md + r3-program-plan.md authorities explicitly forbid. PM-intent dilution.

F2 — `docs/r3-actual-close-plan.md:89` Gap 2 alternative-disposition authored Rust-only-Shape-A scope-narrow as an explicit fallback, semantically weakening the §3.1 3-target promise without prior authority reconciliation.

Both findings are an instance of a broader class: alternative-disposition language across §0 + Gaps 1/2/3/9 was authored pre-ratification when operator hadn't yet foreclosed those paths. Post-operator-§4 ratification 2026-05-13 (ALL IN-R3, no R4-carves), they are stale-against-ratification.

Consistent reframe applied to all 4 alternative-disposition instances:
- Line 11 (§0 closure target): R4-defer / THESIS-reframe paths STRUCTURALLY FORECLOSED per operator §4 IN-R3 ratification; legacy alt-disposition sections retained as audit-trail not as available paths.
- Line 48 (Gap 1 alt disposition): operator §4 Item 1 IN-R3 ratification supersedes; dual-amendment authority chain preserved as closure-rule discipline for any future re-opening.
- Line 89 (Gap 2 alt disposition): operator §4 Item 2 IN-R3 ratification forecloses Rust-only-narrow.
- Line 133 (Gap 3 alt disposition): operator §4 Item 3 IN-R3 ratification forecloses R1-horizon-narrow + 5-sub-lane R4-carve.
- Line 342 (Gap 9 alt disposition): operator §4 Item 4 IN-R3 ratification forecloses THESIS-aspirational-not-R3-promised reframe.

Also propagated ratification state into §4 header (request-for-ratification → RATIFIED 2026-05-13) + line 3 Status line (DRAFT → FULLY RATIFIED).
