Summary

  • STOP-blocked after manager review on the original row-82 ratchet attempt.
  • The attempted diagnostics_empty_after_bootstrap_for_bootstrap_authority predicate used diagnostic.span().file == path for per-authority attribution.
  • That predicate was removed from this draft PR because it introduces a new SourceSpan file textual-identity bridge while bridge_source_span_file_participation_retired remains open.
  • docs/debt/r3-debt-paydown-ledger-2026-05-02.md row 82 remains Open in this draft head.

Debt-Paydown Receipt

  • Debt paid: none. Row 82 is not retired by this draft head.
  • Debt found + routed: row 82 currently lacks a structural diagnostic-attribution surface. DiagnosticTable is keyed by PortId, Diagnostic carries SourceSpan but no DeclarationId, and bootstrap tokenize/parse/fixture failures can be attached through detached phantom ports via Dag::attach_diagnostic, so the current substrate does not expose diagnostic -> declaration -> bootstrap_authority membership without falling back to span.file textual identity.

STOP/PING Disposition

  • Route needed to Substrate/Evaluator for a structural consumer surface that can attribute bootstrap diagnostics to a bootstrap_authority row without span.file == or another textual path heuristic.
  • Candidate shape: diagnostics carry or can resolve to a declaration/authority anchor, including for detached bootstrap fixture diagnostics.

Test Plan

  • cargo fmt --manifest-path src/v3/compiler/Cargo.toml
  • git diff --check

Mgr review — STOP+PING flag on the path-equality predicate; cleanups separately.

Implementation shape is right (single integration test in pb1_bootstrap_full_snapshot_test.rs, iterates bootstrap_authority_rows(&dag) → consumes carrier read-only → collects failures → asserts empty), and the ledger row 82 flip to "Retired" is correct. But the per-row attribution predicate is a real review-blocking issue:

Issue 1 (review-blocking): (diagnostic.span().file == path) is a textual-identity bridge.

INVARIANTS.md P5 §"Dispatch-Discipline Mechanisms (a)" explicitly names span.file == checks among the string/path/name identity bridges that MUST be authored against the §0 identity-carrier pass program, not introduced as one-offs. The 5-bridge audit in r3-v-bridge-ratchet-test-design.md lists bridge_source_span_file_participation_retired (row 1) — the bridge ledger we're driving to zero is currently red, and span.file participation is one of the open rows. Adding a new span.file == consumer in the same release that's trying to retire that bridge is exactly the parallel-authority shape P2 forbids.

Concretely: the ratchet's correctness depends on the diagnostic's span file string matching the authority key string textually. If bootstrap normalizes paths differently downstream (relative vs absolute, slash conventions, dsl/... vs src/v3/... casing drift), the ratchet silently passes when authorities have non-empty diagnostics. It is the same anti-pattern the bridge ledger row exists to dissolve.

Disposition: STOP+PING per the brief's discipline. The right consumer surface for "diagnostic attributable to authority X" is structural — diagnostic → declaration → authority membership, not span-file-string equality. Two paths forward:

  1. Preferred — find/use a structural surface: Diagnostic carriers reference DeclarationIds (or a port that resolves to one); the authority membership predicate is "the declaration's source root == bootstrap_authority key." If that surface exists today, switch the predicate to it.
  2. If no structural surface exists today: the brief was wrong to assume diagnostic-collection-helper reuse was sufficient — the helper collected raw diagnostics but didn't carry attribution. Pause and ping me on session/fierce-ferret-556 · fierce-ferret-556 #1276; I'll route to Substrate (jolly-ram-908 session/jolly-ram-908 · jolly-ram-908 #1130) or Evaluator (snappy-moth-795 session/snappy-moth-795 · snappy-moth-795 #1131) for the right consumer surface, parallel to how row 82 was held on the BootstrapAuthority carrier itself.

Don't substitute a different textual heuristic (path-prefix, normalize-then-compare, etc.) — that's exactly the heuristic-patching the row exists to retire.

Issue 2 (cleanup, before mark-ready): PR body is generic ("Opened from session-dashboard..."). Replace with the Debt-Paydown receipt the brief required:

  • Debt paid: ledger row 82 — diagnostics_empty_after_bootstrap ratchet, consumes bootstrap_authority carrier read-only.
  • Debt found + routed: [pending Issue 1 disposition — likely a route to bridge ledger row 1 (bridge_source_span_file_participation_retired) if path-equality is unavoidable in the current substrate surface, or none if a structural surface lands].
  • Anchors: docs/debt/r3-debt-paydown-ledger-2026-05-02.md row 82 + brief docs/briefs/r3-v-diagnostics-empty-after-bootstrap-worker.md.

Hold on flipping out of draft until Issue 1 is resolved. Comment on this PR or ping me on #1276 with disposition.

APPROVE — small, scoped test addition that adds the diagnostics_empty_after_bootstrap ratchet over the bootstrap_authority carrier, with the ledger row updated to Retired. The test reads facts already on the Dag (single authority, shared read), iterates authority rows, and fails closed with a clear aggregated message. No invariant or modeling violations observed in the diff.

STOP+PING disposition: Issue 1 is valid. I converted this PR back to draft and pushed 6356372, which removes the diagnostic.span().file == path ratchet and restores row 82 to Open.

I checked the current substrate surface: DiagnosticTable is keyed by PortId; Diagnostic carries SourceSpan but no DeclarationId; and bootstrap tokenize/parse/fixture failures can be attached through detached phantom ports via Dag::attach_diagnostic, so PortId -> producer -> declaration does not cover the required failure modes. I do not see a structural diagnostic -> declaration -> bootstrap_authority row attribution surface today without falling back to span.file textual identity.

I also updated the PR body to remove the false Debt-paid receipt and record the routed gap. Holding draft pending Substrate/Evaluator routing for a structural diagnostic-attribution surface.

This scheduled approval is stale relative to the current draft head. It reviewed commit 4d77a116; PR #1572 now points at 635637273, where the diagnostics_empty_after_bootstrap test was removed and ledger row 82 is back to Open after the manager STOP+PING finding on diagnostic.span().file == path.

Current disposition remains draft / STOP-blocked pending a structural diagnostic-attribution surface; this approval should not be treated as clearance for the current PR head.

Closing this draft rather than marking ready. The row-82 implementation attempt was removed after the STOP+PING finding, and the current PR diff is empty. Row 82 remains on standby pending a Substrate/Evaluator structural diagnostic-attribution surface; a fresh PR should be opened when that surface lands.

* feat(v3): structural DiagnosticAttribution surface for bootstrap diagnostics

Verification PR #1572 STOP+PING flagged that row 82
`diagnostics_empty_after_bootstrap` cannot ratchet structurally today:
`DiagnosticTable` was keyed by `PortId` but carried only a `Diagnostic`,
`Dag::attach_diagnostic` allocates detached phantom ports with
`produced_by: None`, and any consumer asking "is this from a bootstrap
authority file?" had to compare `diagnostic.span().file` against a
known authority path — a forbidden path-string bridge.

This change adds a witness-based attribution surface so verification
consumers (PR #1572 Worker B') dispatch on bootstrap origin via
`DiagnosticAttribution`, not span paths.

Substrate addition (`src/v3/compiler/src/diagnostics.rs`):

  - `BootstrapAuthorityKey(&'static str)` — opaque, validated witness
    for a row in `src/v3/std/bootstrap_authority.dag`'s
    `bootstrap_authority` set. Constructor is `pub(crate)` so only
    bootstrap loaders / kernel-patch helpers can mint a key; consumers
    receive minted keys through `DiagnosticAttribution` and dispatch on
    witness equality. `path()` is exposed for diagnostic display only;
    consumers must NOT use it to recover attribution (that's the bridge
    being dissolved).

  - `DiagnosticAttribution = Unattributed | BootstrapAuthority(key)`
    rides alongside each entry in `DiagnosticTable`. Adds
    `is_bootstrap()` and `as_bootstrap_authority()` helpers.

  - `DiagnosticTable.entries` now stores
    `(Diagnostic, DiagnosticAttribution)`. Existing `get` / `iter` /
    `is_empty` / `len` / `contains` accessors preserve the diagnostic-
    only signatures; new `attribution(port)` and `iter_attributed()`
    expose attribution. `insert(port, diag, attribution)` is the only
    breaking signature change (still `pub(crate)`).

Dag attach API (`src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs`):

  - `mark_unresolved_with_attribution(port, diag, attribution)` —
    new sibling carrying an explicit attribution; old
    `mark_unresolved` defers with `Unattributed`.

  - `attach_bootstrap_diagnostic(authority_key, diagnostic)` — new
    sibling of `attach_diagnostic` for diagnostics raised while
    loading or patching a substrate `bootstrap_authority` row.
    Allocates the same detached phantom port (no fabricated producer
    node, per dispatch constraint #3) but records
    `BootstrapAuthority(key)` so detached-phantom-port bootstrap
    diagnostics carry origin without a `SourceSpan.file` compare.

Bootstrap loader rewires (per dispatch step 4):

  - `bootstrap.rs::patch_kernel_bool_boolean_algebra_inhabits` — three
    diagnostic-attach sites now call `attach_bootstrap_diagnostic`
    with `BootstrapAuthorityKey::new("dsl/std/types.dag")`.

  - `bootstrap.rs::report_pipeline_authority_error` — uses
    `BootstrapAuthorityKey::new(PIPELINE_AUTHORITY_FILE)` (the
    `src/v3/compiler/pipeline.dag` authority).

  - `bootstrap_regen_fresh.rs::parse_fixture` — both the tokenize-
    failure and parse-failure branches now call
    `attach_bootstrap_diagnostic(BootstrapAuthorityKey::new(file), …)`.
    `parse_fixture`'s `file: &str` parameter is tightened to
    `&'static str`; `load_fixtures` and the corresponding
    `Vec<(&'static str, &'static str)>` collection in
    `load_runtime_bootstrap_authorities` carry the `'static` through
    the producer chain (STAGED_FILES / V3_SPECS / COMPILER_FILES /
    EXTDEPS_FILES are already `'static`-keyed by `build.rs`).

Ordinary non-bootstrap diagnostic call sites (lower / infer /
int_literal_ranges / branch-condition checks in `dag.rs`) keep using
`attach_diagnostic`, so they continue to record `Unattributed` per
dispatch step 4 (don't widen scope).

Focused tests (per dispatch step 5):

  - `crate::diagnostics::tests::diagnostic_attribution_default_is_…`
    (witness equality / `is_bootstrap` / `as_bootstrap_authority`
    invariants).
  - `crate::diagnostics::tests::diagnostic_table_round_trips_…` —
    drives both `attach_diagnostic` and `attach_bootstrap_diagnostic`
    through the public Dag surface and asserts per-port attribution
    via `iter_attributed`.
  - `crate::bootstrap::tests::kernel_bool_path_a_diagnostic_carries_…`
    — proves the detached-phantom-port path attaches
    `BootstrapAuthority(BootstrapAuthorityKey::new("dsl/std/types.dag"))`,
    consumed through `iter_attributed` / `attribution(port)` without
    any `span.file ==` compare.
  - `crate::bootstrap_regen_fresh::tests::parse_fixture_tokenize_…`
    and `parse_fixture_parse_failure_carries_bootstrap_authority` —
    cover the two `parse_fixture` failure branches.

Validation:
  - `cargo test -p v3-compiler --lib --features bootstrap-regen-fresh`
    303 passed (incl. 6 new attribution tests).
  - `cargo test -p v3-compiler --test integration` 781 passed.
  - `cargo run -p v3-compiler --features bootstrap-regen-fresh
    --bin regen_bootstrap` clean (no snapshot delta — attribution is
    runtime-only, not embedded in the bootstrap fixture).

Receipt against `docs/debt/r3-debt-paydown-ledger-2026-05-02.md` row 82
("Missing diagnostics-empty bootstrap gate"). Verification owns the
final row-82 ratchet PR after this substrate surface lands; the
recommended consumer API is
`DiagnosticTable::attribution(port).is_bootstrap()` (or filtering via
`iter_attributed`).

* chore: apply cargo fmt

* docs(v3): harden BootstrapAuthorityKey::path egress contract

Per #1587 reviewer's optional follow-up. The asymmetry (pub `path()` /
`pub(crate)` `new`) is intentional but only documented at the type
level; pinning the egress-only rule on the accessor itself makes the
"no `pub fn from_path` / `From<&str>` re-introducing the path-string
bridge" review check explicit. Comment-only; no behavior change.
