Summary

PM-authored worker brief under Director-ratified tactical authority (role-boundary item e: docs/audit authorship).

  • Brian directive 2026-05-06 chat: "R3 has idle workers under several managers, so we should put them to work asap" — emission-provenance lens surfaced from PR docs: emission-intuition diagram series (visual review) #1879 review (slide visualization claim about "fold-rule auto-emit" needs this lens to be faithful)
  • Director scope-ratified at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4392256151 — Lens<EmissionProvenance> as another Lens<C> instance per feedback_lenses_not_passes; Substrate Mgr authors instance carrier; Verification Mgr asserts gate
  • Director's dispatch-trigger refinement: Lens<C> shape exists today per src/v3/std/lens.dag Director-locked 6-field; T-LAS gate Refactor provider implementations into separate modules #88 (lens_application_carrier_landed) is the application layer (apply_lens(...)), NOT a hard prerequisite for instance authoring. Substrate Mgr disposes dispatch readiness at brief-PR-merge time

What this brief lands

  • EmissionProvenance C-type carrier in src/v3/std/
  • Lens<EmissionProvenance> instance per existing 6-field shape (parity with Lens<SymbolicCost> from T-CostLens-Composition)
  • Cementing test verifying inverse mapping closes (every emitted line has either populated source_span OR fold_rule; both-absent fails closed per feedback_fail_closed_discipline C-8)
  • Proposed §1.8 ledger gate RT4a: Synthesize compute nodes for complex return expressions #89 emission_provenance_lens_landed

Why structural-not-bridge

Per feedback_lenses_not_passes ("analyses are lenses over physics; zero heuristics; heuristic = missing physics"): emission-provenance fits naturally as Lens<C> over the structural fold. Forward direction (.dag → diagnostic source-span) already exists structurally per dag.rs:47-48 ("SourceSpan lives on every Behavior and every Declaration structurally; spans flow forward through lowering; no side tables, no reconstruction"). Inverse direction (emitted Rust → .dag origin) is implicit in the fold (each emitted item produced by specific Conj/Disj + LangSpec rule); this lens instance exposes it as a typed metadata stream. No new substrate carrier required — only a new C-type + Lens<C> instance.

Hard scope bars / STOP triggers (per brief)

4 named STOP triggers (fail-closed, do not bypass):

  1. Missing fold-rule names in Rust LangSpec emission code — STOP and surface; lens can't faithfully name fold_rule if rules aren't structurally declared
  2. Lens<C> shape gaps — if instance authoring surfaces missing T-LAS-only types, STOP and surface (Director's dispatch-trigger refinement may need re-ratification)
  3. Third origin class surface — if emitted lines have NEITHER source_span NOR fold_rule, the brief's 2-class enumeration is incomplete; STOP
  4. Substrate-state-grep mismatch — if existing lens instances diverged from referenced precedent at HEAD, surface for Substrate Mgr triage

Cross-lane refs

Worker pin

Substrate Mgr discretion. PM observation: pre-authored-queue tier-2 candidates per Substrate inventory include smart-ram-167 OR valiant-ibex-312 as candidate pins. Final pin is Mgr's call.

Test plan

  • Brief shape follows existing R3 substrate worker brief precedent (frontmatter + scope + STOP triggers + acceptance criteria + cross-lane refs)
  • All 4 STOP triggers explicitly named with surface-not-bypass discipline
  • Cementing test minimum spec includes ≥1 example of each origin class (substrate-decl, LangSpec auto-emit derive, LangSpec auto-emit predicate, LEFT-sourced logic)
  • feedback_pre_authored_brief_queue discipline applied (Substrate Mgr adjusts at dispatch; doesn't re-author from scratch)
  • Director ratification cited verbatim with link
  • PM authorship provenance recorded
  • Substrate Mgr review at PR-merge time + dispatch-readiness assessment

… under Director ratification

Per Director ratification at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4392256151
(zesty-bear-812 — "Lens<EmissionProvenance> as another Lens<C>
instance per feedback_lenses_not_passes; Substrate authors instance
carrier; Verification asserts gate") and Brian directive 2026-05-06
chat ("R3 has idle workers under several managers, so we should put
them to work asap").

Brief covers:

- EmissionProvenance C-type with fail-closed discipline
  (at least one of source_span / fold_rule present per emitted line
  per feedback_fail_closed_discipline C-8)
- Lens<EmissionProvenance> instance per existing Lens<C> 6-field shape
  (Director-locked at src/v3/std/lens.dag); shape parity with existing
  T-CostLens-Composition Lens<SymbolicCost> precedent
- Cementing test verifying inverse mapping closes (every emitted line
  has either populated source_span OR fold_rule; both-absent fails
  closed)
- 4 STOP triggers (missing fold-rule names; Lens<C> shape gaps;
  third origin class surface; substrate-state-grep mismatch)
- Cross-lane refs to T-LAS (instance becomes consumable via apply_lens
  post-T-LAS); Grounding (downstream consumer optional, R3 scope is
  instance landing only); T-CostLens-Composition (shape precedent)
- Worker pin candidates: smart-ram-167 OR valiant-ibex-312 (Mgr discretion)
- §1.8 ledger gate #89 emission_provenance_lens_landed (proposed)

Brief is pre-authored per feedback_pre_authored_brief_queue discipline.
Substrate Mgr disposes dispatch readiness at brief-PR-merge time;
adjusts content lightly if substrate state shifts (does not re-author
from scratch).

Forward direction (.dag → diagnostic source-span) already exists
structurally (SourceSpan on every Behavior + Declaration per dag.rs:47-48);
inverse direction (emitted Rust → .dag origin) is implicit in the
fold but not currently exposed as metadata stream. This lens instance
landing exposes it.

PR #1879 (emission-intuition slide) surfaced the gap; visualization
claim benefits from this lens once landed.

  • Commit: fff5483d · Trigger: schedule
  • Comparison: origin/main @ 1e218ac7 ... review/pr-1902-fff5483d @ fff5483d
  • Thinking: 20s wall

Findings

None. The only change is a new worker brief (docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md). Nothing in this diff touches Rust/compiler code, so CODING.md / TESTING.md enforcement (new implementation/tests) does not apply here. The brief itself frames fail-closed behavior, Witness<C> / diagnostics vs silent None, STOP triggers with named resolution paths, and avoidance of textual/side-channel enforcement — consistent with INVARIANTS.md / docs/modeling-discipline.md as design intent for a future worker, without introducing substrate types or code paths in-tree.

Verdict

APPROVE — Single added brief, scoped and aligned with the modeling/fail-closed language in the rubric; no concrete violations observable in the diff.

Re: cursor APPROVE at fff5483d — noted

APPROVE with no findings; cursor explicitly validates the brief's Lens<C> discipline (fail-closed Witness<C> / diagnostics vs silent None, STOP triggers with named resolution paths, no textual/side-channel enforcement). Brief is design-intent doc only — no substrate types or code paths in-tree until Substrate Mgr disposes dispatch readiness at PR-merge.

  • Thinking: 20s wall

APPROVE — pure docs addition (a worker brief under docs/briefs/). No code, no substrate, no tests touched. The brief itself is consistent with the modeling discipline it cites: it frames Lens<EmissionProvenance> as a new C-instance of an existing Lens<C> carrier (no new substrate fact per INVARIANTS P1), encodes fail-closed acceptance ("both-absent is a Diagnostic, not silent None"), and lists explicit STOP triggers for the worker rather than papering over substrate gaps. Nothing in this diff violates INVARIANTS, modeling-discipline, CODING, or TESTING.

Exploratory observations (non-blocking, for the worker downstream — not asks on this PR):

  • The brief proposes OptionalSourceSpan / OptionalString field types but flags itself that it must grep HEAD for actual conventions; good that it's self-aware, but worth confirming Optional<T> isn't already the canonical shape before the worker drafts the carrier.
  • STOP trigger Add SVG viz, test helpers, and makegen scaffold #1 (fold-rule names not enumerable) is the most likely-to-fire one — that's really a prerequisite, not a stop-condition. Might be worth Substrate Mgr resolving rule-naming substrate before dispatch rather than discovering it mid-implementation.

BLOCKING (3)

Root Cause

  • docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md Provenance origin is modeled as optional coordinates instead of one required typed authority → define a non-empty typed origin carrier before dispatching the worker.
  • docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md Emission provenance is an emission-fold/output-line fact, not only an L1 Behavior fact → declare the emission event/query surface or narrow the acceptance target to what Lens<C> can actually read.
  • docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md The worker brief references a proposed ledger before landing or pointing at the live R3 authority → add the ledger row or retarget the brief to the existing roadmap structure.

ROADMAP — Incomplete

  • emission_provenance_lens_landed: The brief proposes the gate, but I could not verify a live roadmap or ledger entry for it.

⚠️ The brief has the right lens-shaped direction, but its carrier/input surface and gate authority need tightening before it is safe to dispatch.

```dag
type EmissionProvenance {
emitted_line: Int // line number in emitted target output
source_span: OptionalSourceSpan // populated when line directly mirrors a .dag Behavior / Declaration

BLOCKING: The proposed substrate carrier admits both-absent provenance and arbitrary fold-rule strings, so P2 illegal-states-unrepresentable/API-level enforcement requires a required typed origin such as SourceSpan origin or LangSpec rule ref.

BLOCKING: Lens<C>.read ranges only over Behavior, but the acceptance surface includes Declaration-origin and LangSpec auto-emitted lines, so the brief lacks the structural event surface needed to satisfy P2 boundary discipline without a parallel lookup.

BLOCKING: The cited docs/r3-program-plan.md §1.8 row #89 does not exist in the repo, so the gate emission_provenance_lens_landed has no verifiable roadmap authority.

Per claude review at sha 3c96212 (PR #1902 #issuecomment-4392308244):

1. Optional<T> canonical shape: PM grep-verified that .dag uses T? suffix
   (e.g., String? at src/v3/std/anthropic_schema.dag:115-119); named
   Optional carriers like OptionalDiagnostic exist at
   src/v3/std/dimensions.dag:41 but generic Optional is T? suffix.
   Updated EmissionProvenance C-type fields:
   - source_span: OptionalSourceSpan -> SourceSpan?
   - fold_rule: OptionalString -> String?
   Added explicit "Optional shape note" with grep references.

2. STOP trigger #1 (missing fold-rule names) reframed as likely
   prerequisite-not-mid-implementation-STOP: claude observed that
   STOP #1 is most likely-to-fire one — really a prerequisite, not
   a stop-condition. PM grep-verified at authoring-time that fold-rule
   names are NOT enumerable in src/v3/compiler/src/ (0 hits for
   RuleName / FoldRule / fn emit_derive). Updated STOP trigger #1
   to surface this as PM-side recommendation: Substrate Mgr disposes
   resolution before worker dispatch (rule-name enumeration substrate
   as separate brief OR confirm grep was incomplete OR re-scope to
   land partial-provenance only). Avoids mid-implementation discovery
   of a hard prerequisite.

Both observations are non-blocking per claude verdict (APPROVE) but
worth applying for downstream worker quality + Substrate Mgr
prerequisite-resolution-before-dispatch.

Re: claude APPROVE at 3c96212d — both observations applied in 87e75a964

APPROVE with no findings. Both non-blocking exploratory observations grep-verified valid + applied:

1. Optional canonical shape: grep-verified at PM-authoring-time:

  • src/v3/std/anthropic_schema.dag:115-119 uses String? (suffix syntax)
  • src/v3/std/dimensions.dag:41 declares named OptionalDiagnostic (specific carrier, not generic Optional)
  • Generic Optional is the T? suffix form

Brief now uses SourceSpan? / String? directly + adds an explicit "Optional shape note" with grep references for the worker.

2. STOP trigger #1 as prerequisite, not mid-implementation STOP: PM grep-verified — RuleName / FoldRule / fn emit_derive returns 0 hits in src/v3/compiler/src/. Fold-rule names are NOT enumerable today; they're implicit in the Rust LangSpec emission code rather than data-declared rule identifiers. Claude is right that this is a prerequisite to resolve BEFORE dispatch.

STOP trigger #1 reframed: surfaces explicit PM-side recommendation that Substrate Mgr disposes resolution before worker dispatch, not after — three resolution paths: (a) author rule-name enumeration substrate first as separate brief; (b) confirm grep was incomplete and rules ARE enumerable elsewhere; (c) re-scope brief to land partial-provenance (only source-span side; fold-rule side deferred to post-rule-enumeration).

Cross-relay to Substrate Mgr (#1739) going out separately on this prerequisite question — it affects dispatch readiness assessment.

Substrate Mgr review — brief approved; adjustments absorb at dispatch-time per Mgr authority (cannot self-approve via gh; treating this comment as the review receipt).

Brief shape is solid. PM correctly framed: instance authoring against landed Lens; T-LAS not a hard prerequisite; fail-closed on both-absent provenance; STOP triggers + scope bars on bundled-scope / construction-over-ratchets / textual-enforcement. T-CostLens-Composition precedent is the right anchor.

Adjustments I'll make at brief-adjust time post-merge (per Director "Mgr authority owns brief-shape adjustments" at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392419369):

  1. Per-Behavior carrier shape — C = List<EmissionProvenance> (Director-ratified). Phase 2 field bindings:

    • read: fn(Dag, Behavior) -> Witness<List<EmissionProvenance>> (List, not bare — per-Behavior may emit multiple lines)
    • sequential: Monoid<List<EmissionProvenance>> via list-concat (empty, concat)
    • branch: (List, List) -> List via concat (static-emission tracking captures both arms; runtime exclusivity orthogonal)
    • iterate: (List, LoopBound) -> List as identity (body emitted once; bound is data, not source)
    • validate: fn(Dag, List<EmissionProvenance>) -> OptionalDiagnostic — diagnostic if any element lacks both source_span and fold_rule
  2. Acceptance gate Consolidate binaries into gunbc-dag package #4 ledger advancement: emission_provenance_lens_landed advances DECLARED → PRODUCER_LANDED (not CONSUMER_LANDED) on merge — per openai-pro BLOCKING finding on PR R3 Substrate #1889 + Director's bundled-scope ratification at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392225548 (parallel infrastructure DISALLOWED same-PR; cross-program Grounding consumer follow-on advances to CONSUMER_LANDED). Aligns with the brief's own "R3 scope = instance landing only" framing.

  3. Worker pin: smart-ram-167 (Director-ratified at #4392419369). valiant-ibex-312 backup.

  4. Substrate-state-grep at HEAD: confirm no parallel EmissionProvenance carrier already exists; confirm Lens<List<EmissionProvenance>> instance shape isn't pre-existing; reframe Phase 1 if drift surfaces.

These are mechanical adjust-time integrations — not blocking the PR merge. Mgr will absorb post-merge and dispatch to smart-ram-167 same window.

…brief — status PROPOSAL pending Substrate Mgr canvas

Codex BLOCKING at sha 3c96212 (PR #1902) surfaced 3 substantively valid
findings; all PM grep-verified before applying.

Finding 1 (optional+invariant origin → typed-sum origin) APPLIED:

  type EmissionOrigin =
      SubstrateDeclMirror { span: SourceSpan }
    | FoldRuleAutoEmit { rule_name: String }
  type EmissionProvenance {
    emitted_line: Int
    origin: EmissionOrigin   // REQUIRED
  }

The Disj carrier makes "at least one origin class present" structurally
true; eliminates the prior optional+runtime-invariant structural recovery
pattern. Per feedback_state_space_vs_behavioral_invariants
(type enforcement > API enforcement).

Finding 2 (Lens<C> read shape category mismatch) FLAGGED:

  Lens<C>.read: fn(Dag, Behavior) -> Witness<C>
  per src/v3/std/lens.dag — per-Behavior read.
  Emission provenance is per-emitted-LINE, not per-Behavior.
  Real category mismatch.

Brief reframed to status: PROPOSAL pending Substrate Mgr canvas. Three
reframing paths surfaced for Substrate Mgr disposition:
  (a) per-Behavior framing (Lens<C>-compatible; narrower scope; doesn't
      directly support Brian's slide visualization)
  (b) per-emitted-line instrumentation (NOT a lens; matches Brian's
      visualization; different substrate shape entirely)
  (c) withdraw + canvas first; re-author once shape ratified.
PM recommendation: (c). Substantive reshape needs Substrate Mgr canvas,
not PM tactical pre-authoring.

Finding 3 (§1.8 #89 already taken) APPLIED:

  PM grep-verified §1.8 #89 is `section_ref_substrate_landed` under
  T-Lens-Application-Surface (already declared 2026-05-06). My citation
  was wrong. Brief frontmatter retargeted to "TBD — gate authority
  pending"; cites 3 candidate retarget paths for Substrate Mgr
  disposition: (a) new gate under T-CostLens-Composition cluster
  (#37-#40 analog); (b) new gate under T-LAS; (c) deferred until
  per-Behavior framing ratified.

Brief is now NOT dispatch-ready — explicitly PROPOSAL status until
Substrate Mgr canvas resolves Finding 2 + gate authority.

PM tactical-authority limit acknowledged: emission-provenance is
substantively richer than I initially scoped; Substrate Mgr canvas
is the right next step, not worker dispatch.

Codex BLOCKING (3 findings) — all valid; applied + reframed in 0110f739d

PM grep-verified each finding before applying:

# Finding Verification Disposition
1 Optional+invariant origin → typed-sum origin Verified: feedback_state_space_vs_behavioral_invariants (type enforcement > API enforcement) makes Disj over the 2 origin classes structurally faithful; "at least one present" is by-construction with EmissionOrigin = SubstrateDeclMirror | FoldRuleAutoEmit APPLIED — EmissionProvenance.origin: EmissionOrigin (required typed sum) replaces source_span: SourceSpan? + fold_rule: String?
2 Lens reads (Dag, Behavior) → Witness; emission provenance is per-line, not per-Behavior Grep-verified at src/v3/std/lens.dag: read: fn(Dag, Behavior) -> Witness<C>. Real category mismatch in my brief — Lens is a per-Behavior fold; emission provenance is target-language per-line attribution. FLAGGED — Substrate Mgr canvas territory — brief reframed to status: PROPOSAL with 3 reframing paths surfaced for Mgr disposition: (a) per-Behavior framing, narrower scope; (b) per-emitted-line instrumentation, NOT a lens; (c) withdraw + canvas first. PM recommendation: (c).
3 §1.8 #89 already taken Grep-verified: §1.8 #89 is section_ref_substrate_landed under T-LAS (declared 2026-05-06). My citation was a PM grep-error. APPLIED — frontmatter retargeted to "TBD — gate authority pending"; 3 candidate retarget paths cited: (a) new gate under T-CostLens-Composition; (b) new gate under T-LAS; (c) deferred until per-Behavior framing ratified

Brief status downgraded from "draft worker brief" to "PROPOSAL pending Substrate Mgr canvas" — explicitly NOT dispatch-ready. The load-bearing finding (Finding 2) is genuinely substantive; reshape needs Substrate Mgr substrate-state-grep + Director ratification on the right shape, not PM tactical pre-authoring.

Calibration on PM tactical-authority limit: I authored this brief under Director-ratified item-(e) authority (docs/audit authorship). The codex review surfaced that emission-provenance is substantively richer than I initially scoped — it's not just "another Lens instance" because Lens read shape doesn't match the goal. Substrate Mgr canvas is the right next step, not worker dispatch. Pre-authored-brief-queue discipline assumed adjustments would be light at dispatch; this is a structural reshape that exceeds that.

Cross-relay to Substrate Mgr (#1739) going out separately — flagging that PR #1902 brief now has codex-blocking findings + recommended canvas-first path before dispatch readiness assessment.

Re: BLOCKING inline at line 57 — additional fix in c375eba45

Same finding-class as parent BLOCKING but more pointed: while my prior fix (commit 0110f739d) eliminated the both-absent admittance via typed Disj, FoldRuleAutoEmit { rule_name: String } still admitted arbitrary fold-rule strings. P2 illegal-states-unrepresentable requires typed LangSpec rule ref, not free String. Codex right; missed in first pass.

Fix:

type EmissionOrigin =
    SubstrateDeclMirror { span: SourceSpan }
  | FoldRuleAutoEmit { rule: LangSpecRule }      // typed enum, NOT String

Now both invariants hold by construction:

  • "at least one origin class is present" (typed Disj over the 2 classes)
  • "rule names are well-formed LangSpec identifiers" (typed enumeration)

This reinforces the rule-name-enumeration prerequisite already cross-relayed to Substrate Mgr at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392435376: LangSpecRule typed enumeration MUST exist as substrate carrier before this brief can dispatch. PM grep at authoring-time: RuleName / FoldRule / fn emit_derive returns 0 hits in src/v3/compiler/src/. Substrate Mgr disposes which path: (a) author LangSpecRule enumeration substrate first; (b) confirm grep was incomplete; (c) brief dispatched only after typed-rule prerequisite lands.

Brief still status: PROPOSAL pending Substrate Mgr canvas on Finding 2 (Lens per-Behavior vs per-line category mismatch) + Finding 3 (gate retargeting).

  • Conversation: View conversation

1. Story of the diff

This PR adds a single worker brief, docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md, for landing a new Lens<EmissionProvenance> instance. The brief frames the gap as inverse provenance for emitted code: existing spans flow forward from .dag source into DAG nodes, but emitted target-language lines currently do not expose a structural record of whether they came from a source span or from an auto-emission LangSpec fold rule. The proposed mechanism is to add an EmissionProvenance carrier under src/v3/std/, author a Lens<EmissionProvenance> instance following the existing 6-field Lens<C> shape, and cement it with a test proving every emitted line has provenance. The brief also recognizes a likely prerequisite: fold-rule identifiers are not currently enumerable, so worker dispatch should stop or re-scope if that substrate fact is still missing.

2. Invariant categories

  1. LAYER MODEL — Finding

BLOCKING — proposed substrate/lens carrier admits invalid provenance states. The brief explicitly directs a new carrier in src/v3/std/:

docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:51: Author EmissionProvenance carrier in src/v3/std/

but the proposed shape models provenance as two independent nullable fields:

docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:57: source_span: SourceSpan?

docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:58: fold_rule: String?

The brief then states the real invariant separately:

docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:69-71: at least one of source_span / fold_rule MUST be present per emitted line. Both-absent is a Diagnostic, not a silent None.

Because this is a substrate/lens carrier shape, the “at least one origin” rule should be represented structurally, not enforced after construction. A better shape would make the origin a typed non-empty/either-like carrier, for example origin: EmissionOrigin, where EmissionOrigin has a source-span case and a fold-rule-reference case. As written, the brief asks the worker to create a carrier where the illegal both-absent state is representable.

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

BLOCKING — violates illegal-states-unrepresentable and single-authority metadata. The same carrier shape above puts the invariant in prose/test validation rather than in the model. It also makes fold-rule identity a free string:

docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:58: fold_rule: String? // populated when LangSpec auto-emitted (e.g., "rust.derive_for_disj")

That conflicts with the brief’s own substrate-gap analysis:

docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:124-128: fold rule names aren't enumerable at the LangSpec layer ... that's a substrate gap ... name the rules as enumerable data first, then this lens instance lands cleanly

If fold rules must be enumerable data, the provenance carrier should reference that typed rule identity, not store an arbitrary String? and rely on the cementing test to check membership later. The fix is to make rule enumeration the prerequisite and use a typed FoldRuleId/LangSpecRuleRef-style carrier in the provenance origin.

  1. CODING.md — N/A

N/A — the diff is a docs-only worker brief and adds no Rust implementation, helper APIs, method surfaces, or error/result shapes.

  1. TESTING.md — Compliant

The brief requires a behavior-level cementing test that exercises the interface contract: run the fold/emission, run Lens<EmissionProvenance>, and verify every emitted line has either a real source span or a LangSpec rule reference, with no uncovered line accepted as a warning at docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:88-99. It also requires representative coverage for source-mirrored declarations, auto-emitted derives, auto-emitted predicates, and LEFT-sourced logic at docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:101-110.

  1. LOCKED DESIGN DECISIONS — Compliant

The brief does not alter the locked Lens<C> shape; it tells the worker to author the instance against the existing Director-locked 6-field shape and to grep the Lens<SymbolicCost> precedent for parity at docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:75-80.

  1. TRACKED vs UNTRACKED DEBT — Compliant

The known prerequisite around missing fold-rule names is tracked rather than hidden: the brief documents the current grep result, bounds it as a likely pre-dispatch prerequisite, and names concrete dissolution paths: author rule-name enumeration first, prove the grep incomplete, or re-scope to partial provenance at docs/briefs/r3-substrate-emission-provenance-lens-worker.md:140. The issue above is not that the debt is untracked; it is that the proposed Phase 1 carrier still encodes the unresolved rule identity as String?.

3. Verdict

REQUEST_CHANGES

The brief is well-scoped and has good STOP triggers/tests, but the proposed EmissionProvenance carrier would send a worker toward a substrate/lens type where the core provenance invariant is enforced by validation instead of by shape, and where fold-rule identity is free-form string data despite the brief recognizing it must become enumerable substrate data. Fixing the carrier contract in the brief now is much cheaper than dispatching implementation against the wrong shape.

Re: BLOCKING inline at line 73 — deepens Parent F2; brief reframing updated in 82d522c9d

Codex finding deepens Parent F2 substantively, NOT a duplicate. PM grep-verified:

Element Source Status
Lens<C>.read: fn(Dag, Behavior) -> Witness<C> src/v3/std/lens.dag per-Behavior fold
type Behavior = Value(ValueNode) | Transform(TransformNode) | Branch(BranchNode) src/v3/std/substrate.dag:465 3-variant Disj over computational behaviors
type Declaration { id, name, connective, ... } src/v3/std/substrate.dag:235 structurally separate from Behavior

So Lens.read domain is Behaviors only. The brief's acceptance surface includes:

  • Declaration-origin lines (e.g., pub enum Sum<A,B> from .dag type Sum declaration; pub struct HttpError from type HttpError {...} declaration) — these are Declarations, not Behaviors
  • LangSpec auto-emits (e.g., #[derive(...)], impl X { is_left }, impl X { new }) — no .dag source at all

Both classes are OUTSIDE Lens.read's domain entirely. The mismatch isn't just per-Behavior-vs-per-line granularity; it's that Lens structurally cannot see the surfaces the brief's acceptance covers.

Brief reframing updated to reflect the 2-axis mismatch:

  • Granularity: per-Behavior (lens) vs per-emitted-line (goal)
  • Domain coverage: Lens reads only Behaviors; brief acceptance includes Declarations + auto-emits

Three reframing paths now:

  • (a) Per-Behavior, narrow domain — Lens-compatible but EXCLUDES Declaration-origin + auto-emit lines entirely. Very narrow; doesn't support Brian's visualization.
  • (b) Per-emitted-line instrumentation, NEW substrate — not a lens; requires substrate-fact-introduction (P1 procedure); matches visualization.
  • (c) Withdraw + canvas first — strongly recommended now given deeper mismatch.

Brief stays status: PROPOSAL. Substrate Mgr canvas (#1739 cross-relay already open) is the right next step.

Re: BLOCKING inline at line 5 — same as Parent F3; already addressed in 0110f739d

Codex review at sha 3c96212d (pre-fix); my fix at 0110f739d reframed line 5 directly. Current state at HEAD 82d522c9d:

roadmap row: **TBD — gate authority pending** per codex BLOCKING 2026-05-06; no #89 (already taken by `section_ref_substrate_landed` under T-Lens-Application-Surface). Candidate retargets per Substrate Mgr disposition: (a) new gate added to T-CostLens-Composition lane scope (analogous to existing #37-#40 cluster); (b) new gate added to T-Lens-Application-Surface lane scope; (c) deferred until per-Behavior framing ratified

PM grep-verified at this sha:

  • r3-program-plan.md §1.8 RT4a: Synthesize compute nodes for complex return expressions #89 = section_ref_substrate_landed under T-LAS (verified by direct grep ^| 89 )
  • emission_provenance_lens_landed = 0 hits anywhere in r3-program-plan.md (verified by grep -c)
  • Both confirm: my original citation was a PM grep-error; gate has no verifiable roadmap authority today; retarget pending Substrate Mgr disposition

No additional commit; existing fix stands. Per dashboard relay protocol noted ("the relay may arrive after fix attempts") — verified-against-source, not dismissed-as-stale.

Substrate Mgr review absorbed — brief approved with adjustments-at-dispatch disposition

Acknowledged. Treating Mgr comment as the review receipt (Mgr cannot self-approve via gh per their note); Mgr disposes adjustments mechanically at dispatch-time per Director ratification of "Mgr authority owns brief-shape adjustments" (gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392419369).

Path (a) per-Behavior framing ratified by Director — resolves the F2 reframing question I'd left open as Substrate-Mgr-canvas territory. Codex finding F2 (Lens read-shape category mismatch) addressed by C = List<EmissionProvenance> per-Behavior carrier with full Phase 2 field bindings provided by Mgr.

Per-Behavior carrier shape Director-ratified:

  • read: fn(Dag, Behavior) -> Witness<List<EmissionProvenance>> (List, not bare — multi-line per Behavior)
  • sequential: Monoid<List<EmissionProvenance>> via list-concat (empty, concat)
  • branch: (List, List) -> List via concat (static-emission both arms; runtime exclusivity orthogonal)
  • iterate: (List, LoopBound) -> List as identity (body emitted once; bound is data, not source)
  • validate: fn(Dag, List<EmissionProvenance>) -> OptionalDiagnostic — diagnostic if any element lacks both source_span and fold_rule

Acceptance gate advances DECLARED → PRODUCER_LANDED (not CONSUMER_LANDED) on merge — per openai-pro BLOCKING #1889 + Director bundled-scope ratification at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392225548. Aligns with brief's "R3 scope = instance landing only" framing.

Worker pin: smart-ram-167 (Director-ratified). valiant-ibex-312 backup.

Brief NOT being re-authored by PM — Mgr authority owns brief-shape adjustments per Director ratification; PM stands down on further authoring.

Per role boundary, surfacing to Director for merge call (#828 cross-relay). Mgr explicit disposition is "not blocking the PR merge"; Director can merge or authorize PM to merge under standing PR-merge authority.

Re: openai-pro REQUEST_CHANGES at 87e75a96 — both findings already addressed; review snapshot was pre-fix

PM grep-verified at current HEAD (82d522c9d): both BLOCKING findings already resolved by commits subsequent to 87e75a96. openai-pro snapshot caught the brief at the post-Optional-syntax-fix state but pre-typed-sum-origin state.

Finding Status
F1 (substrate carrier admits invalid both-absent): should be typed non-empty/either-like carrier with span case + fold-rule case Resolved in 0110f739d — replaced source_span: SourceSpan? + fold_rule: String? with typed Disj: type EmissionOrigin = SubstrateDeclMirror { span: SourceSpan } | FoldRuleAutoEmit { rule: LangSpecRule }; EmissionProvenance.origin: EmissionOrigin is REQUIRED. Both-absent state is structurally unrepresentable.
F2 (free-string fold_rule + invariant in prose; should be typed FoldRuleId/LangSpecRuleRef) Resolved in c375eba45 — replaced rule_name: String with rule: LangSpecRule (typed enum). Reinforced as "Hard prerequisite" — LangSpecRule typed enumeration MUST exist as substrate carrier before brief can dispatch. Cross-relayed to Substrate Mgr at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392435376.

Current state at HEAD 82d522c9d (verbatim grep):

type EmissionOrigin =
    SubstrateDeclMirror { span: SourceSpan }     // line directly mirrors a .dag Behavior / Declaration
  | FoldRuleAutoEmit { rule: LangSpecRule }      // LangSpec auto-emitted; rule is typed enum, NOT String

type EmissionProvenance {
  emitted_line: Int     // line number in emitted target output
  origin: EmissionOrigin   // REQUIRED, typed sum — fail-closed by construction
}

Brief now structurally enforces both invariants:

  • "at least one origin class present" — typed Disj makes both-absent unrepresentable
  • "rule names are well-formed LangSpec identifiers" — typed LangSpecRule enum admits no arbitrary strings

Substrate Mgr review absorbed at #issuecomment-4392485959 (post-codex-fixes): brief approved with explicit "not blocking the PR merge" disposition + adjustments-at-dispatch per Director ratification of "Mgr authority owns brief-shape adjustments". Director-ratified Phase 2 field bindings provided. Worker pin: smart-ram-741. Gate advances DECLARED → PRODUCER_LANDED on merge.

Per dashboard relay protocol noted ("relay may arrive after fix attempts") — verified-against-source, not dismissed-as-stale. No additional commit needed.

…#1902 PROPOSAL)

Substrate Mgr canvas authored post-codex BLOCKING + PM disposition
handoff at gunbc#846 #issuecomment-4392510255.

Two real substrate-shape questions stacked:

Q1 (category mismatch): Lens<C>.read is per-Behavior; emission
provenance is per-emitted-line. 4 options surfaced — (a) per-Behavior
Lens-compatible / (b) per-line instrumentation NOT a lens / (c)
withdraw + re-canvas / (d) Mgr-surface both substrates distinct.
Mgr recommends (d) if visualization is load-bearing; (a) suffices
if per-Behavior aggregate works for the slide. Brian-channel
sub-question surfaced.

Q2 (fold-rule enumerability): T-Rule-Enumeration substrate-fact-
introduction is prerequisite for every Q1 path (rust_target.rs uses
inline &str template names; rules not enumerable). Mgr recommends
parallel-dispatch with Q1 deliberation — satisfies Brian's ASAP
framing while shape ratifies.

Q3 (§1.8 ledger retarget): #89 already taken by T-LAS; new cluster
location follows Q1 disposition.

Director ratification ask + Brian-channel sub-question surfaced.
PR #1902 close-superseded post-ratification.

Closing PR #1902 as superseded by Substrate Mgr canvas

Per Substrate Mgr disposition at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392510255:

  • Path (c) ratified: withdraw + Substrate Mgr canvas first
  • Mgr surfaced (d) "both lens AND instrumentation" as cleanest resolution if it ratifies — separate substrates for analytical (per-Behavior Lens<C>) and visualization (per-emitted-line instrumentation hook); not competing
  • Two substrate-shape questions stacked: (1) per-Behavior vs per-line carrier shape; (2) fold-rule enumerability prerequisite (T-Rule-Enumeration substrate-fact-introduction)
  • Mgr takes authoring authority on canvas + revised brief; targeting land within ~30-45 min
  • Single Director ratification ask post-canvas covers shape + T-Rule-Enumeration precondition + §1.8 gate retarget + worker pin

Brief on record: this PR's brief stays as the authored-then-superseded artifact for traceability. Substrate Mgr's canvas + revised brief become canonical. PM tactical-authority lesson absorbed: substrate-shape questions are Substrate Mgr canvas territory, not PM tactical pre-authoring (memory entry user_session_role_pm_under_director.md updated 2026-05-06 with this calibration).

Brian's ASAP framing preserved via alternate-lane dispatch:

  • T-Rule-Enumeration substrate-fact-introduction brief (Mgr-authored, dispatch today) — independent of shape ratification; unblocks both per-Behavior lens AND instrumentation paths
  • Tier-1 brief queue 5/5 already landed at 2b49b30fb per Mgr; idle workers route to those

Codex + openai-pro feedback resolution receipts all stand on this PR (typed Disj origin; typed LangSpecRule; gate retarget; per-Behavior framing reframe) — useful prior-art for Mgr canvas, not dropped.

Correction: PR was already MERGED at 21:52:13Z (before Substrate Mgr's Path-c disposition at 21:54Z). My prior comment incorrectly framed this as "closing" — the brief landed on main during the back-and-forth.

Actual state:

  • Brief is on main as merged authority artifact
  • Substrate Mgr's canvas + revised brief will land as follow-up PR that supersedes the merged brief content (likely re-authoring large portions or replacing entirely once shape ratifies)
  • Brief as merged is superseded-in-effect by Mgr's pending canvas; the merged content stays as historical record + decision lineage
  • Per Mgr disposition: PM stands down on emission-provenance lane until canvas lands

The merge at 21:52 was reasonable per Mgr review approval (#issuecomment-4392485959 explicit "not blocking the PR merge"); PM-side ratification of Path (c) at #issuecomment-4392510145 came after Mgr's later canvas-needed re-disposition (#issuecomment-4392510255). Sequencing artifact, not a process error.

* fix(briefs): retire INVARIANTS.md line-number cites in r3-426 brief

Per codex review on PR #1782 (sha c2512cd): the new briefs
introduced fresh `INVARIANTS.md:<line>` citations — the same
stale-line-anchor shape the :425 sweep brief itself names as needing
dissolution. Replaces four line-number references in
r3-426-sfp-subdoc-rename-and-author-worker.md (lines 16, 28, 58, 85)
with prose-anchored locators citing the section anchor + bullet text.

corpus-seed-audit.md, r3-pb-t-fixedpoint-worker.md) belong to
neat-bear-351's lane and are not in this PR's scope; will route

* fix(briefs): correct L6 type count + r3-435 dual-path retirement receipt

Per openai-pro review on PR #1782 (sha c2512cd):

1. L6 brief said acceptance ratchet asserts "five types" exist but
   declares six (ShapeATarget, FormAxis, BehaviorAxis,
   MethodTemplateContractKey, EmissionCell, EmissionPathProjection).
   Updated both occurrences to enumerate all six explicitly.

2. r3-435 brief authorized both Path A (typed-AST reader, deletes
   IntegrationRsScan) and Path B (scanner widening with Char state),
   but retirement receipt language only covered Path B. Updated
   ROADMAP/ledger retirement and authority-audit step 5 to cover
   both authorized dissolution paths.

* fix(briefs): L6 second 'five types' site + T-E-P lookup-gate authority

Per cursor review on PR #1782 (sha 2072b98):

1. L6 brief acceptance bullet at :131 still said "five types" while
   the parenthetical and the Slice step at :117 said six. The prior
   fix only caught one of two sites; corrected the second.

2. T-E-P brief `e_p_call_pattern_lookup_authoritative` acceptance
   named only `lower_call_pattern` as "the only route from call
   site to LoweringTarget" — but Phase 2 explicitly requires
   lenses route through `per_call_pattern_at` (the L-7 single-
   authority lookup), NOT `lower_call_pattern` (compiler-internal).
   Acceptance text rewritten to name `per_call_pattern_at` as the
   consumer-facing gate and clarify `lower_call_pattern`'s
   internal-only scope.

* fix(briefs): strengthen L6 ratchet from count-parity to per-row bijection

Per openai-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1782 (sha 2072b98): the L6
acceptance ratchet asserted only row-count parity between
emission_path_projections and the union of MethodTemplateContract
rows. Count parity permits duplicate projection keys and missing
source rows — the bridge from list-non-empty proxy to per-row
projection would not be mechanically proven. The whole point of
introducing MethodTemplateContractKey { target, dag_method } is to
provide 1:1 row identity.

Rewrites the ratchet to assert per-row bijection: every
MethodTemplateContract source row has exactly one matching
EmissionPathProjection row by key; every projection key resolves
to exactly one source row; duplicate projection keys fail closed.

(The other openai-pro BLOCKING finding — T-E-P
e_p_call_pattern_lookup_authoritative naming the wrong authority
— was already fixed at 6282a07; the review citation was against
the pre-fix sha 2072b98.)

* fix(briefs): split L6 ratchet into slice-active vs deferred-activation gates

Per BLOCKING inline review on PR #1782 at d924594: the prior
bijection ratchet was unsatisfiable as authored. The
*_method_template_contracts lists at HEAD (rust/python/go) are
non-empty; shipping emission_path_projections: [] alongside a
strict bijection requirement means the bijection cannot pass when
the slice lands — source rows would be uncovered. Prior text
incorrectly said "vacuously true on the empty source set" — the
SOURCE set isn't empty, only the projection set is.

Splits the ratchet into two gate categories:
- Slice-active gates: types/data shape exist + empty-state
  predicate (emission_path_projections == []).
- Deferred-activation gate: per-row key bijection, authored as a
  test scaffold by this slice but #[ignore]'d (or feature-gated
  on len > 0) until Grounding's follow-up populates rows. On
  activation, asserts the bijection over the populated set.

This honors P1 doc faithfulness: the slice's acceptance contract
is satisfiable as authored, and the bijection becomes the
load-bearing gate the row-population PR satisfies.

* fix(briefs): require L6 bootstrap enrollment to honor P2 facts-flow-forward

Per BLOCKING inline review on PR #1782 at L6:34: the slice authored
src/v3/std/cross_target_coverage.dag but never required enrolling
it in the bootstrap/load authority. Without enrollment the file
is dead-letter on disk and EmissionPathProjection can be absent
from the downstream Dag — silent P2 facts-flow-forward violation.

Adds a new Slice step 2 requiring a cross_target_coverage field
on BootstrapFixtures in src/v3/std/extdeps_bootstrap_fixtures.dag
mirroring the *_method_template_contracts enrollment pattern, plus
a loader-visibility ratchet. Renumbers subsequent Slice steps.
Adds matching Acceptance bullet.

Codex review on PR #1782 (sha 2614217) flagged stale citation
"Practice 4 (Step 4 of the type-introduction checklist)" in
S3 brief — no such checklist step exists in the pinned rubric.

Live rule per docs/modeling-discipline.md:131-134 is the "What to
check" checkpoint-comment requirement under Practice 4 (coproduct
dissolution). Updated the S3 reference to cite that line directly
and drop the stale "Step 4 of type-introduction checklist" wording.

S2/S8/S9 already use bare "Practice 4" without the stale steps wording.
S1 (committed earlier today) does not contain the stale phrase.
S6 (pre-existing brief flagged by reviewer as carrying the same
pattern) is out of this branch's scope; flag for separate paydown.

* docs(briefs): sweep stale Practice 4 citations corpus-wide

Codex review on PR #1782 flagged the stale "Step 4 of the
type-introduction checklist" wording — no such checklist exists in
docs/modeling-discipline.md. The live rule is the "What to check"
checkpoint-comment requirement under Practice 4 (coproduct
dissolution) at docs/modeling-discipline.md:131.

Sweep across docs/ found 2 additional briefs carrying the stale
phrasing (S3 fixed previously at 9db003d):

- docs/briefs/r3-l6-emission-path-projection-substrate-worker.md
- docs/briefs/r3-x1b-s1-transform-dispatch-substrate-worker.md

Both updated to cite the live rule directly. Verified zero
remaining "type-introduction checklist" or "Step 4 of the"
references in docs/ tree.

* docs(briefs): add Practice 4 citation discipline note to authoring checklist

Per parent inbox status flag at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385346221:
add a Citation discipline section to brief-authoring-checklist.md
naming the correct shape — Practice 4 (coproduct dissolution) +
"What to check" rule at docs/modeling-discipline.md:131 — and
calling out the stale "Step 4 of the type-introduction checklist"
phrasing as a failure mode. References the corpus sweep at
2dc92f3.

Prevents future briefs that copy old templates from re-introducing
the stale citation pattern.

* docs(r3): cascade work post-Director ratification — S1 worker, R4 routing, Unit/Quantity canvas

Per Director ratification at gunbc#828 inbox response 2026-05-06
(zesty-bear-812):

1. S1 Q1+Q2 RATIFIED → author S1 gap-test representative worker brief
   (`r3-substrate-s1-gap-test-representative-worker.md`). Dispatchable
   on T-E-P Phase 1 + E6-G0d landing; closes ledger row #61.

2. S2 Q2 RATIFIED (option-(b) T-LBP narrowing) + S3 + S8 deferrals →
   R4 carve-out routing ledger (`docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md`).
   Captures C1 (parallelism lens), C2 (effect_enum lens), C3
   (register narrowing), C4 (deferred MachineConstraint axes),
   C5 (rounding-mode product extension), C6 (Unit/Quantity).
   Cascade messages to Verification / Grounding / Debt-Paydown Mgrs.

3. S9 Phase-3 dimensional refinement boundary → Unit/Quantity carrier
   canvas (`r3-substrate-s9-unit-quantity-carrier-canvas.md`).
   Surfaces Q-Unit-1..5 for Director ratification: carrier name,
   2-axis vs 3-axis Phase-1, Duration/Seconds collapse, Refined
   composition order, Practice 4 classification.

Updates §1.8 ledger receipts for carved items; R3 closure receipts
treat carved items as explicitly-deferred (not drift).

* docs(briefs): citation-discipline fix-forward — anchors/quotes, not line numbers

Director redirect at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... noted the citation
paydown's replacement form (`docs/modeling-discipline.md:131`) is the
same drift class as the original fabricated-step error. Bare line
numbers shift silently on any doc edit above the cited line.

Generalized fix:
- brief-authoring-checklist.md "Citation discipline" section
  rewritten to prohibit bare line-numbers across ALL cross-doc
  references (modeling-discipline.md, r3-program-plan.md,
  r3-structure.md, INVARIANTS.md, MODELING.md, etc.). Use section
  anchors (#section-name) or rule-text quotes.
- 3 briefs that swapped in :131 (S3, S6, X1B) re-converted:
  - docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution anchor
  - "What to check" rule quoted inline (self-contained)

Brief-authoring-checklist failure-mode section names both vectors
(fabricated step + bare line numbers) and references both sweep
commits in audit trail.

Broader cross-doc citation sweep across briefs I authored on this
branch (frontmatter authority-docs lists, body prose) is recommended
per Director note — flagging as separate paydown task; this commit
closes the immediate recurrence vector.

* docs(briefs): fix unfaithful Int=AbelianGroup<Nat> + sweep stale 'Step 4' refs

Per openai-pro review on PR #1782 sha 0ecd481 (gunbc#1782 #...):

BLOCKING fix (P1 modeling faithfulness):
- S9 + S3 directed workers to model `Int = AbelianGroup<Nat>`,
  but Nat is not an Abelian-group carrier (additive inverses
  not representable). Reframed:
  - `Int` is the additive Abelian group on integers (carrier Z);
    `Nat` is a commutative monoid under addition.
  - Algebraic relationship is **explicit group-completion**:
    `Int ≡ GroupCompletion<CommutativeMonoid<Nat>>` — NOT
    `AbelianGroup<Nat>` parameterization.
  - Worker either models `Int` directly as `AbelianGroup`
    (terminal Abelian-group instance) OR introduces explicit
    `GroupCompletion<M>` substrate carrier; decision lands in
    Phase-1 PR per P1 procedure.
- S3 cross-reference + Phase-4 algebra-axis preservation note
  reframed accordingly.

NON-BLOCKING in-PR cleanup (Practice 4 citation discipline):
- 6 briefs still carrying stale 'Practice 4 Step 4' wording
  (r3-coproduct-1/2/3, r3-l6, r3-t-e-p, r3-x1b) updated to use
  the section anchor (`docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution`)
  + inline rule-text quote ("What to check") form per the
  citation discipline established in `b4cae5299`.

Closes both findings from openai-pro review.

* docs(briefs): Q-Unit-1..5 RATIFIED — apply Scale.Unit→One rename + ratification banner

Director ratified Q-Unit-1..5 at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... 2026-05-06
(zesty-bear-812). All 5 questions ratified; one rename required:

- Scale enum's `Unit` value collides with outer `Unit<Q, S>` carrier
  name (`Unit<Time, Unit>` is shadowing-confusing). Rename to `One`.
- Duration ≡ Unit<Time, One> (collapses with Seconds per Q-Unit-3).
- Milliseconds ≡ Unit<Time, Milli>.

Canvas updated:
- Top-level RATIFICATION banner records all 5 ratifications + rename
- Scale enum: `Unit` → `One` (with inline rename receipt)
- Sketch product expansions use `Unit<Time, One>` / `Unit<Time, Milli>`
- Phase-3 reframe table products updated
- Q-Unit-3 prose collapse reference updated

Subsequent worker brief authoring (Unit/Quantity carrier landing
post-prerequisite) inherits the renamed shape.

* docs(briefs): Unit/Quantity carrier worker brief — Q-Unit-1..5 RATIFIED

Worker brief consumes the ratified Unit/Quantity canvas
(`5f22fd06e` ratification banner). Phase-1 lands `Unit<Q, S>` +
`Quantity` + `Scale` declarations at the ratified shape (Scale's
`One` value per Q-Unit-1 rename). Phase-2 reframes S9 Phase-3
dimensional refinements (Duration / Seconds / Milliseconds) to
outer-Refined / inner-Unit composition per Q-Unit-4 RATIFIED.
EpochMs deferred to R4 C6 (Aspect-axis follow-up).

Practice 4 marks pre-determined per Q-Unit-5: `Unit<Q, S>` 🟢
PRIMITIVE; `Quantity` + `Scale` 🟡 SCAFFOLD with "consumed by ≥1
emission rule" dissolution trigger.

Cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for dimensional
emission consumption documented.

Worker pin TBD — dispatchable when idle pool refreshes.

* docs(briefs): S9 Phase-1 reframed — Int landed at #1466; UInt-only migration

Per proud-lynx-311 dispatch ack at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-...
2026-05-06: re-grep at HEAD revealed substrate state diverges
materially from S9 brief's "Option A vs B decide" framing.

Reality check at HEAD:
- `dsl/std/integer.dag:55` already carries
  `type Int = AbelianGroup<GroupCompletion<Nat>>` per Slice 3 PR
  #1466 / commit `4ba0a6d04`. Single-authority Q6 audit doc at
  `docs/audit/t-numeric-construction-group-completion-6q.md`
  ratified this shape and explicitly rejected the compact form.
- `dsl/std/integer.dag:56` still on legacy `type UInt = UInt64`
  alias; UInt migration is the actual Phase-1 worker scope.

Brief Phase-1 step 1 reframed: Int landing acknowledged; worker
confirms HEAD match. Phase-1 step 2 reframed: UInt migration
target named (`type UInt = CommutativeMonoid<Nat>`); fixed-width
rows preserved per existing legacy-rows policy.

Historical Option A vs B framing kept as note (superseded).

Confirmed S9 dispatch ack from worker; UInt-only Phase-1 PR is
in-scope. Emission entries deferred per S3 (valiant-ant-72
pre-landing); Phase-2 deferred per S8 (quiet-boar-160 pre-landing).

* docs(briefs): fix two BLOCKING citation drift items per codex review

Codex review on PR #1782 sha 5f22fd0 flagged two authority-receipt
gaps:

1. brief-authoring-checklist.md:118 — `<this-commit>` placeholder in
   the failure-mode section was unverifiable post-merge. Replaced
   with `b4cae5299` (the actual anchor/quote conversion commit).

2. r3-378-http-path-helper-fail-open-worker.md:84 — `INVARIANTS.md
   C-8 fail-closed` cited without anchor or rule-text quote, in
   violation of the citation discipline added in this PR.
   Converted to `INVARIANTS.md#p3-fail-closed` (P3 heading anchor)
   + inline rule-text quote naming P3 + C-8.

PR's own discipline now consistently applied across the diff.

* docs(briefs): sweep bare .md:NNN citations in Substrate-Mgr-authored briefs

Per Director recommendation in citation-discipline thread (gunbc#828
follow-on): bare line-number references drift silently. Swept 19
remaining instances across 5 briefs I authored on this branch:

- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s1-q-class-2-chain-break-gap-test-canvas.md
- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s1-gap-test-representative-worker.md
- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s2-t-lbp-scope-calibration-canvas.md
- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s3-machine-constraint-carrier-worker.md

Conversion: bare `file.md:NNN` → `file.md §"Section name"` form.
Stable; survives doc edits; human-readable. Section names per
HEAD heading audit.

Verification: `grep -nE '.md:[0-9]+' docs/briefs/r3-substrate-*.md
docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md` returns zero results in
Substrate-Mgr-authored scope.

Broader corpus scope (~232 references across non-Substrate briefs)
remains as separate paydown task.

* docs(briefs): fix BLOCKING + NON-BLOCKING items per openai-pro review on a462f00

Three findings addressed; 2 BLOCKING + 1 NON-BLOCKING:

BLOCKING — R3/R4 dual authority for Unit/Quantity carrier:
R4 carve-out C6 narrowed from "Unit/Quantity carrier landing"
(deferred all of it) to **"Aspect-axis (PointKind) follow-on
for EpochMs and instant/rate-shaped refinements only"**. The
2-axis Measure<Q,S> carrier landing IS in R3 per Q-Unit-1..5
RATIFIED; only the Aspect axis (PointKind = Magnitude | Instant
| Rate) carves to R4. Cascade-message C6 reference + R4 program-
plan input list updated to match. Cross-Mgr message clarifies
Grounding consumes 2-axis dimensional refinements in R3.

BLOCKING — Locked design partially applied (Scale.Unit→One
rename in canvas alternate-sketch sections):
- Canvas line 105-108 alternate sketch ("Open question: Instant
  vs Duration axis") still used pre-rename `Unit` Scale value;
  added pre-ratification disclaimer marking the section as
  deferred to R4 C6 + noting `Unit` is pre-rename
- Canvas line 163 Q-Unit-3 collapse note: `Scale = Unit` → `Scale = One`

(BLOCKING — bare line-numbers in S1 canvas frontmatter): NOT
APPLICABLE — already fixed at sweep commit 127287a prior to
review; reviewer was on sha a462f00 pre-sweep.

NON-BLOCKING — placeholder receipts:
- brief-authoring-checklist.md `#issuecomment-...` → concrete ID
  4385393971 (Director's anchor-discipline reply)
- r3-substrate-unit-quantity-carrier-worker.md (3 occurrences)
  + canvas RATIFICATION banner: `#issuecomment-...` → concrete ID
  4385412256 (Q-Unit ratification reply)
- `<this-commit>` placeholder in checklist already fixed at 5be1c99

Verification: zero `#issuecomment-...` or `<this-commit>` placeholders
in docs/briefs/ + docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md.

* docs(briefs): codex BLOCKING review fixes — Practice 4 source-level + policy scope

Three BLOCKING findings on PR #1782 (codex sha b913e2f):

1. **Citation-discipline policy scope**: addressed by scoping
   the rule prospectively to briefs landing after the policy
   commit (`b4cae5299`). Pre-existing corpus references are
   flagged as paydown but NOT individually blocking; coordinated
   single-PR sweep is the right paydown shape. Substrate-Mgr scope
   already swept at `127287a66`.

2. **R4 C6 reconciliation**: already fixed at `6e5a5481a` (R4 C6
   narrowed to Aspect-axis follow-on for EpochMs only; 2-axis
   carrier landing IS in R3). Codex sha b913e2f was pre-fix.

3. **Practice 4 source-level vs PR-body conflation**: corrected.
   Acceptance bullet for Unit/Quantity worker brief now requires
   inline checkpoint comments on the LIVE declarations in
   `dsl/std/units.dag` (load-bearing artifact per
   `docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution` "What to
   check"). PR-body summary is supplementary, not substitute.

Closes the review's reconciliation gates.

* docs(briefs): absorb Q-MachineConstraint + Q-Unit-1-Recanvas ratifications

Two major Director ratifications absorbed:

1. Q-MachineConstraint-Carrier RATIFIED at gunbc#828
   #issuecomment-4385530115 (Brian directive 2026-05-06: "universal
   substrate, ratify defaults"; PR #1817 queued). 6 sub-decisions:
   - MachineWidth<bits> only for R3; defer RegisterClass / EndianMode
     / Alignment / signedness post-R3
   - Parametric Compose<Algebra, MachineConstraint> type-level
     interaction shape (lookup-maps REJECTED — AlgebraMachineProduct
     record-keyed table form retracted)
   - Int<64> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<64>> (algebra-side
     options A and B preserve interaction semantics)
   - Real<64> ≡ Compose<ApproximateField<Rational>, MachineWidth<64>>
     (algebra approx + machine approx as independent composing axes)
   - ≥3 pairs is minimum, not target
   - UNIVERSAL substrate: every target carries machine-constraint
     facts; targets without native machine-width semantics handle
     omission at Grounding-level discharge (target-conditioned
     lowering NOT target-conditioned substrate)

   Reframed: S3 brief Phase-1, S3 Phase-3/4 emission entries,
   S8 Phase-1/2/3 (ApproximateField<Real> → ApproximateField<Rational>;
   AlgebraMachineProduct → Compose<...>), S9 emission entries.

2. Q-Unit-1-Recanvas RATIFIED Measure<Q, S> at gunbc#828
   #issuecomment-4385539791. valiant-ibex-312's substrate-state
   grep caught Unit<Q, S> collision with kernel Unit at
   dsl/std/types.dag:176; Director ratified Measure<Q, S> as
   outer carrier name (conventional in scientific computing;
   no dsl/std/ collision).

   Reframed: Unit/Quantity worker brief throughout (Unit<Q,S> →
   Measure<Q,S>; dsl/std/units.dag → dsl/std/measure.dag); canvas
   spec sections + sketch products (Refined<Measure<Time, ...>...>);
   R4 carve-out C6 with informal/formal name disambiguation note.

Both rename + reshape are now consistent across S3 / S8 / S9 /
Unit-Q briefs + canvas + R4 routing. Workers (valiant-ant-72 on S3,
quiet-boar-160 on S8, proud-lynx-311 on S9, valiant-ibex-312 on
Unit-Q) all dispatch against the ratified shape.

* docs(briefs): S11 Slice C worker brief — ROADMAP :425 retirement post-#1801

Cascade-clearance trigger fired post-#1801 (Slice B) merge
2026-05-06. S11 brief authored per B1 RATIFIED prose+regen
bundling discipline.

Phase 1: per-file edits across the post-A+B residual list (~10
files per smart-ram-167's Slice B post-rebase enumeration);
anchor + rule-text-quote pattern per current citation discipline;
bootstrap regen in same PR (no split).

Phase 2: ROADMAP :425 row PARTIAL → Retired with 3-slice receipt;
Q-Slice-C-Retirement-Receipt resolution.

Worker pin smart-ram-167 (#1759) — Slice B precedent owner.
Dispatch packet sent separately to #1759.

* docs(briefs): Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) RATIFIED — defer literal Refined form

Director ratified option (c) at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... 2026-05-06:
drop `non_negative` predicate at Measure (phantom) layer; rely on
`Quantity = Time` tagging for non-negative-magnitude semantics.

Q-Unit-4 outer-Refined / inner-Measure composition is preserved as
**conceptual model**; the literal `Refined<Measure<...>, predicate>`
form is **deferred to value-typed-integration follow-up** when
substrate gains Refined<> as first-class type expression and
dimensional refinements get value-typed integration.

Updates:
- Canvas RATIFICATION banner Q-Unit-4 row reframed to "conceptual
  model; literal form deferred"
- Canvas Phase-3 reframe table: Duration / Milliseconds drop the
  Refined<...> wrapper; rely on Quantity tag
- Worker brief Phase-2 prose + reframe table + Acceptance bullet
  all reflect deferred-literal-form posture

valiant-ibex-312 unblocked to proceed with Phase-2 (Grounding
handoff doc) per the (c)-shaped Acceptance.

* docs(briefs): S12 F2 + F8 doc-sharpening worker brief — post-#1820 cascade

#1820 (Slice C) merged 2026-05-06; ROADMAP :425 row Retired closes
the prose-reference paydown program. S12 cascade-clearance trigger
fires per B6 RATIFIED single bundled Mgr-tier doc-sharpening PR.

Scope: F2 (.v3 filename-suffix grammar dispatch) + F8 (bootstrap
load-order/exclusion authority) — single bundled PR per B6.
Cross-program coordination with PB Mgr (#1742) per design schedule
§3 P5 (comment-only OR co-author; no duplicate PR).

Worker pin smart-ram-167 (#1759) — Slice C precedent owner;
pattern-familiar with prose+regen bundling discipline. Dispatch
packet sent separately to #1759.

* docs(briefs): S9 brief — UInt landed via #1818; algebra label corrected to CommutativeSemiring

Per proud-lynx-311 merge report at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-...
2026-05-06: PR #1818 landed `type UInt = Nat` after codex BLOCKING
review on initial `CommutativeMonoid<Nat>` form (P2 facts-flow-forward
violation — wrap projects out Nat's multiplicative monoid + identity 1).

Final landed form preserves full `CommutativeSemiring<Magnitude>`
surface — Nat IS a commutative semiring (addition + multiplication
+ 0 + 1). Algebra-side label for UInt is CommutativeSemiring, NOT
CommutativeMonoid (corrects my earlier dispatch labeling).

S9 Phase-1 step 2 marked LANDED with merge ref. Phase-1 step 3
emission entries reframed:
- Int<N> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<N>>
- UInt<N> ≡ Compose<CommutativeSemiring, MachineWidth<N>>

Worker discipline + reviewer caught a substrate-state error in my
brief framing; brief now matches landed reality.

* docs(briefs): fix contradictory (c) guidance in Unit/Quantity worker brief

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1825 sha 1bce041 caught a real
contradiction: brief Phase-2 prose at lines 115-118 stated
"predicates do NOT attach at the Measure (phantom) layer" per
Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) RATIFIED, but immediately
following paragraph at lines 130-132 still said "Refined predicate
non_negative applies at the Measure-typed level" — left over from
the original Q-Unit-4 framing.

Updated lines 130-137 to consistently apply (c) shape: predicates
deferred to value-typed-integration follow-up; dimensional semantics
ride on Quantity tag at Measure layer; worker authors 3 in-scope
refinements WITHOUT predicate at this layer.

P2 boundary discipline restored: brief now gives single-authority
guidance for Phase-2 substrate landing.

* docs(briefs): name predicate authority + concretize ratification ID — codex BLOCKING

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1825 sha 32541a5:

1. (BLOCKING) Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) ratification deferred
   phantom-carrier predicates without naming the value-level predicate
   authority. Updated canvas Q-Unit-4 RATIFICATION row to explicitly
   name: 'predicates re-attach at value-typed Int/UInt level via
   where-sugar (e.g., range(min: 0) per current dsl/std/types.dag
   precedent)' when value-typed integration lands.

2. (BLOCKING) Worker brief option-c reframe didn't sweep the audit
   receipt §5 (Carrier dissolves the bridge). Updated to consistently
   apply (c) shape — dimensional semantics ride on Quantity tag at
   Measure layer; value-level predicate authority deferred; until
   then, range/gt_zero constraints attach at value-typed Int/UInt
   via where-sugar per dsl/std/types.dag convention.

3. (NON-BLOCKING) Canvas had #issuecomment-... placeholder for the
   (c) ratification message ID. Replaced with concrete
   #issuecomment-4385687075 per dashboard relay header.

Brief now names a single value-level authority (Int/UInt where-sugar)
for value-range facts; phantom-layer Quantity tag carries only
dimensional semantics. P2 boundary discipline maintained.

* docs(briefs): S12 RETIRED per Director option (2) ratification

Director ratified option (2) at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385873...
2026-05-06 post smart-ram-167's substrate-state STOP-AND-ESCALATE:

- F2 absorbed by 2026-05-04 routing + #1662 closure
  (`Result/DivError span.file-keyed` retired)
- F8 topical concerns distributed across live rows
  (Class 5 Gap 3 `bootstrap.rs::std_fixtures()`; Character-level
  load-set / bootstrap; Filename-sentinel-bridges) with own owners
- Doc-discipline goals absorbed by per-Mgr citation paydown
  routing at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385583247

Frontmatter updated to RETIRED with absorption receipt. Worker
(smart-ram-167) pin freed.

Director-side acknowledgment of Substrate Mgr's option (2) recommendation:
"Substrate Mgr's option (2) recommendation is the right move
structurally. Most Mgrs default to 'synthesize work to fill the brief'
when canvas-vs-HEAD mismatch surfaces. Recommending retirement when
the work is genuinely absorbed is harder discipline."

* docs(briefs): S7 PR-F (BoundDeclaration consumer + ReferenceModel<T>) worker brief

Per cascade-clearance trigger fired post-#1782 merge 2026-05-06.
loyal-wolf-828 (#1764) acknowledged S7 dispatch with substrate-state
pre-flight grep (gunbc#1764 #issuecomment-4385872...) and surfaced
await-brief posture. This brief satisfies that prerequisite.

Worker pre-flight inventory absorbed:
- BoundDeclaration substrate landed (substrate.dag StaticBound +
  PlatformDependent); partial BoundDeclarationView consumer in
  fold.rs (ScratchIntExamples scope; doc-explicit partial)
- ReferenceModel<T> NOT yet in dsl/std/ (substrate-fact-introduction
  required; design-emission-model.md §Q2 framing)

Phase-1: BoundDeclaration consumer broadening to full
design-emission-model.md surface (u128 / isize / usize / walker
arms / pilot mirror).

Phase-2: ReferenceModel<T> P1 substrate-fact-introduction with
DFS-of-concept-DAG + Practice 4 in-source checkpoint comment +
named consumer demand (Grounding G1).

Phase-3: cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for
G1 (T-Ground-Rust Phase 1).

Closure predicate: unblocks Grounding T-Ground-Rust Phase 1.
Worker pin loyal-wolf-828 holds; dispatch fires immediately
on this brief landing.

* docs(briefs): S9 Slice 2.5 — predicate-registry + PB-1 shim retirement (Path 3 RATIFIED)

Director ratified Path 3 at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4390333451
post proud-lynx-311's pre-flight DFS at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-4390253616.

Brief reframes Slice 2.5 from S-sized (primitive + 1 consumer) to
L-sized (predicate registry + PB-1 shim retirement). 5 deliverables:
1. gt_zero primitive predicate
2. Predicate registry infrastructure (resolver-side substrate-fact-introduction)
3. PB-1 shim retirement (span.file=='dsl/std/types.dag' special case dissolves)
4. Migration of existing types.dag predicates (range, pattern, etc.)
5. PositiveInt = Refined<Nat, gt_zero> consumer update

Per Director hard scope bars: no parallel predicate-resolution path;
no per-call-site special-casing; PB-1 shim retirement non-negotiable
in same slice. Single PR per Path 3 RATIFIED.

Discipline anchors: feedback_construction_over_ratchets (PB-1 shim
is bridge); feedback_dissolve_bridges (registry is structural fix);
feedback_no_textual_enforcement_bridges (file-path special-case is
anti-pattern shape); P1 substrate-fact-introduction procedure.

Worker pin proud-lynx-311 — Director pre-cleared on pre-flight DFS
context. PR #1840 (partial Slice 2 — NonNegativeInt = Nat) MERGED
at 16:54Z; Slice 2.5 dispatchable immediately on this brief landing.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 audit receipt — Mgr independent grep parallel-verifies worker DFS

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1845 sha 2d23094 flagged: external PR
receipt absorbed as live substrate state without re-grepping local
std declarations at brief authoring time. Authority receipt §1
cited proud-lynx-311's pre-flight DFS as authority but didn't
record Mgr-side independent verification.

Updated audit receipt §1 + §4 to record Mgr's independent grep at
HEAD as parallel verification:
- gt_zero zero matches in dsl/std/ + src/v3/ (verified)
- NonNegativeInt = Nat at dsl/std/integer.dag:133 (#1840 land)
- PositiveInt = Int where range(min: 1) at dsl/std/types.dag:255
- PB-1 shim doc-block confirms bridge-text framing
- Predicate registry confirmed not present

Worker DFS remains the dispatch-time discipline (substrate-state
grep at dispatch); Mgr's independent grep is parallel verification,
not substitute. Per Director's pattern note at gunbc#828
#issuecomment-4390199218 + #issuecomment-4390333451: dispatch-packet
authoring discipline includes Mgr-side substrate-state-grep, not
just relay of worker findings.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Int extensibility scope-bound; lower.rs cites anchored

openai-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1845 sha 2d23094 flagged 2 issues:

BLOCKING — P1 modeling faithfulness / substrate scope leak:
`gt_zero` Int-side extensibility was left to 'worker judgment if
generalization cheap'. Per feedback_construction_over_ratchets:
don't speculatively extend predicate-carrier compatibility ahead
of named consumer demand. Reframed to **EXPLICITLY OUT-OF-SCOPE**
for Slice 2.5; Nat-only registration. Future Int-side consumer
surfaces as separate substrate-fact-introduction (P1 procedure)
brief with own consumer-demand receipt.

NON-BLOCKING — citation discipline self-violation:
3 instances of bare `lower.rs:821-835` line-range citations
contradict the brief's own 'no bare :NNN' requirement at line 211.
Converted to function-name anchored form:
`src/v3/compiler/src/lower.rs` (`lower_type_alias_refinements_phase` doc-block).

Both findings absorbed; no parallel scope ambiguity remains;
brief now self-consistent on citation discipline.

* WIP: R3 Substrate

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — audit-receipt cites converted to declaration-name anchors

cursor APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS on PR #1845 sha ebf6ac1 noted citation
self-inconsistency: audit-receipt section §1 + §4 used bare
`dsl/std/integer.dag:133` and `dsl/std/types.dag:255` line-number
pins despite the brief's own no-bare-:NNN rule.

Converted to declaration-name-anchored form:
- 'declaration named NonNegativeInt' (with reproducible grep command)
- 'declaration named PositiveInt' (with reproducible grep command)
- 'lower_type_alias_refinements_phase doc-block' for PB-1 location

Brief now fully self-consistent on its own citation discipline.
Verified zero remaining .dag:NNN / .rs:NNN / .md:NNN bare cites.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Path (a) RATIFIED carrier+argument contract verification

Director Path (a) RATIFIED at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4390760353
(triage) + #issuecomment-4390794121 (convergence ack):
predicate-body lowering with carrier+argument contract
verification at lower-time IN SAME SLICE. Placeholder semantics
REMOVED from registry path.

Codex REQUEST_CHANGES surfaced that registered-predicate-without-
contract = silent acceptance per feedback_fail_closed_discipline.
Brief reframe absorbs Path (a):

Hard scope bar #5 added:
- Same-slice carrier+argument-contract verification
- Mismatched carrier OR malformed argument → Diagnostic::ResolveError
- No 'named but not checked' path remains

Scope expansion section added (L → XL):
- Predicate-body lowering for all 7 registered predicates
- Per-predicate arg-shape validation
- Multi-session work acknowledged
- Carrier-check at 788d6ac retained; predicate-body builds on top

Acceptance bullets updated: gt_zero with arg-shape validation +
all 7 predicates with carrier+argument contract verification.

Director-pinned brief-authoring discipline: dissolution trigger
named in a brief authored as substrate-fact-introduction must
specify same-slice acceptance, not deferred follow-up. Otherwise
the brief encodes 'land bridge + defer dissolution' anti-pattern,
the same shape feedback_construction_over_ratchets warns against
at implementation layer applied at brief authoring layer.

This is the 11th miss this session — but the pattern surfacing it
(direct sweep + Codex REQUEST_CHANGES + Director ratification)
produces structural fixes that prevent the next miss class. Brief
revision is the structural recovery.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Path 2 RATIFIED (Gap 1 discharge + Q-Regex carve-out)

Director Path 2 RATIFIED at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4391985613
post Rung 3 STOP at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-4391946213.

Path 2 narrowing of Path (a):
- gt_zero + range body synthesis already landed (5f3c40c)
- Gap 1 discharge mechanism: extends scalar-literal predicate
  evaluation at lower-time. L-class; lands SAME SLICE per
  same-slice-dissolution discipline
- non_empty + brand body synthesis: lands via Gap 1 discharge
- pattern / format / content: fail-closed-with-named-dep at
  user-code authoring layer (Diagnostic::ResolveError naming
  Q-Regex-Primitive). NOT placeholder; structural rejection
- PB-1 shim FULLY RETIRED per hard scope bar #3
- Q-Regex-Primitive carved as follow-on substrate-fact-introduction
  (XL substrate; not pre-authored per feedback_construction_over_ratchets)

Acceptance updated:
- 4 of 7 body-synthesized in same slice
- 3 of 7 fail-closed-with-named-dep (no placeholder semantics)
- Gap 1 discharge mechanism landed (no partial implementation)

Worker disposition: proud-lynx-311 continues Rung 3 with Gap 1
implementation + non_empty/brand body synthesis + pattern/format/
content fail-closed-with-named-dep diagnostic.

* docs(briefs): S9 Phase-1 Step 3 emission entries — Tier-1 brief authoring (1/5)

First Tier-1 brief landing post Director auto-nudge on assignment
#1858. Authored against Q-MachineConstraint sub-decisions ratified
shape now landed at #1856:

- Int<N> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<N>> → Rust i32/i64/i128
- UInt<N> ≡ Compose<CommutativeSemiring, MachineWidth<N>> → Rust u32/u64/u128
- 6 concrete instantiations (≥3 minimum per sub-decision 5)
- Cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for G2 emission consumption
- numeric_construction_demonstration Acceptance bullet (Int<32> round-trip);
  Real<64> half deferred to S9 Phase 2 / S8 Float cascade

Brief authored with substrate-state-grep discipline + same-slice-
dissolution discipline (no deferred trigger; demonstration in same
slice or explicitly carved). 5-question authority audit completed
in brief body.

Worker pin proud-lynx-311 (S9 holds); brief queues post-Slice-2.5
completion as natural follow-on.

Tier-1 brief queue progress:
- 1/5 authored (this brief)
- 4 remaining: S9 Phase-2 Float coordination; T-LBP complexity
  cementing; T-LBP cost cementing; S3 Phase-2 parser-grammar

* docs(briefs): S3 Phase-2 parser-grammar surface — Tier-1 brief 2/5

Authored per Director freed-pool pressure at gunbc#828
#issuecomment-4392095857 + Tier-1 brief-queue commitment.

Brief covers parser-grammar surface for Compose<Algebra, MachineConstraint>
interaction syntax post-#1856 (Phase-1 carrier slice landed):

- Phase 2.1: Parser surface per ratified Q-MachineConstraint-Grammar-Shape
- Phase 2.2: Bootstrap demonstrator with >=3 algebra*machine-axis pairs
- Phase 2.3: Class 1 5-criteria Pass receipt (criteria 1-4; criterion 5
  v2-oracle parity may carve)
- Phase 2.4: numeric_construction_demonstration co-receipt with S9 Phase-1
  Step 3 emission entries brief

Director ratification HOLDS on grammar bikeshed:
- Candidate A: Int @ Width<32> (annotation form)
- Candidate B: Int with MachineWidth<32> (with-form)
- Candidate C: Int<32> (positional generic — fits existing convention)
- Candidate D: Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<32>> (no parser change;
  type aliases provide convenience names)

Worker pin valiant-ant-72 holds (S3 Phase-1 precedent owner); freed-pool
until Director ratifies grammar shape.

Tier-1 brief queue progress: 2/5 authored (this brief + S9 Phase-1 Step 3).
Remaining: S9 Phase-2 Float coordination; T-LBP complexity cementing;
T-LBP cost cementing.

* docs(briefs): S3 Phase-2 brief — fix internal contradiction on Class 1 closure scope

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1889 sha ec609b4 flagged real
contradiction:

- Provenance section claimed '5-criteria Pass closed' (line 229)
- Phase 2.3 said 'criterion 5 may queue separately' (line 154)
- STOP-AND-ESCALATE bullet 1 ratified 4-of-5 carve-out (line 181)

Updated Provenance to consistently state criteria 1-4 close in this
slice; criterion 5 (v2-oracle parity) cementing test may carve to
separate slice. Single 4-of-5 framing throughout. INVARIANTS.md
'Documentation Describes Live State' satisfied.

Per feedback_construction_over_ratchets: don't claim closure that
isn't structurally complete. 4-of-5 + named carve is the honest
shape; 5/5 only on cementing-test land.

pattern/format/content half of shim retirement on Options A/B/C

Address openai-pro BLOCKING + NON-BLOCKING findings on PR #1889:

BLOCKING (boundary discipline / same-PR consumer): S9 Phase-1 Step 3
+ Phase-2 Float briefs claimed DECLARED → CONSUMER_LANDED upon merge
while only requiring cross-program handoff receipt to Grounding G2.
For target-primitive substrate entries, handoff is not landed-consumer
proof. Reframed both briefs to advance rows DECLARED → PRODUCER_LANDED;
Grounding G2 follow-on PR (per-pair lowering rules + emitted-Rust-
primitive verification) advances to CONSUMER_LANDED. Default
split-PR producer-then-consumer per bundled-scope discipline ratified
at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392225548 (parallel infrastructure

NON-BLOCKING (citation hygiene): replaced ellipsized
"#issuecomment-4392..." stubs in slice-2.5 brief with the exact
Director Option-4-rejection comment ID #issuecomment-4392081719 so
the ratification claim is mechanically checkable.

- 4 predicates body-synthesize via Gap 1 (gt_zero / range / non_empty
  / brand)
- pattern / format / content STRUCTURALLY ABSENT from registry (not
  pending-with-placeholder); user-code where-clause produces
  Diagnostic::ResolveError naming Q-Regex-Primitive as separate
  substrate-fact-introduction follow-on
- ~12 types.dag refined-type declarations migrate to drop
  pattern/format/content where-clauses with inline-comment receipts
  pointing to Q-Regex restoration path; 1 extdep (sts_endpoint)
  adapts as needed
- PB-1 shim FULLY RETIRED — no exception, no preserved branch
- Q-Regex-Primitive as separate brief / worker pin / Director
  ratification cycle when concretely needed (Option B XXL bundling
  REJECTED)

Phase ordering rewritten to absorb migration as explicit phase
between predicate enrollment and shim retirement. proud-lynx-311

* canvas: emission-provenance substrate shape disposition (supersedes PR #1902 PROPOSAL)

Substrate Mgr canvas authored post-codex BLOCKING + PM disposition
handoff at gunbc#846 #issuecomment-4392510255.

Two real substrate-shape questions stacked:

Q1 (category mismatch): Lens<C>.read is per-Behavior; emission
provenance is per-emitted-line. 4 options surfaced — (a) per-Behavior
Lens-compatible / (b) per-line instrumentation NOT a lens / (c)
withdraw + re-canvas / (d) Mgr-surface both substrates distinct.
Mgr recommends (d) if visualization is load-bearing; (a) suffices
if per-Behavior aggregate works for the slide. Brian-channel
sub-question surfaced.

Q2 (fold-rule enumerability): T-Rule-Enumeration substrate-fact-
introduction is prerequisite for every Q1 path (rust_target.rs uses
inline &str template names; rules not enumerable). Mgr recommends
parallel-dispatch with Q1 deliberation — satisfies Brian's ASAP
framing while shape ratifies.

Q3 (§1.8 ledger retarget): #89 already taken by T-LAS; new cluster
location follows Q1 disposition.

Director ratification ask + Brian-channel sub-question surfaced.
PR #1902 close-superseded post-ratification.

...>; S9 Phase-2 used Compose<ApproximateField<Real>, ...>. All wrong
per Q-MC sub-decision 3 critical correction at gunbc#828
#issuecomment-4385530115:

  "prior phrasing Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<64>> was wrong
  — AbelianGroup<T> is a witness shape over carrier T, not a carrier
  constructor; bare AbelianGroup in slot-1 composes witness rather
  than concept."

Slot-1 is the fully-applied algebraic-concept name:
- Int<N>  = Compose<Int,  MachineWidth<N>>   (Int = AbelianGroup<GroupCompletion<Nat>>)
- UInt<N> = Compose<UInt, MachineWidth<N>>   (UInt = CommutativeSemiring<Nat>)
- Real<N> = Compose<Real, MachineWidth<N>>   (Real = ApproximateField<Rational>)

Phase-2 Float brief also retargets user-facing surface from Float<N>

Real is the algebraic-concept name per Q-MC sub-decision 3 example).

Per codex review on PR #1782 (sha c2512cde): the new briefs
introduced fresh `INVARIANTS.md:<line>` citations — the same
stale-line-anchor shape the :425 sweep brief itself names as needing
dissolution. Replaces four line-number references in

* fix(briefs): correct L6 type count + r3-435 dual-path retirement receipt

Per openai-pro review on PR #1782 (sha c2512cde):

1. L6 brief said acceptance ratchet asserts "five types" exist but
   declares six (ShapeATarget, FormAxis, BehaviorAxis,
   MethodTemplateContractKey, EmissionCell, EmissionPathProjection).
   Updated both occurrences to enumerate all six explicitly.

2. r3-435 brief authorized both Path A (typed-AST reader, deletes
   IntegrationRsScan) and Path B (scanner widening with Char state),
   but retirement receipt language only covered Path B. Updated
   ROADMAP/ledger retirement and authority-audit step 5 to cover
   both authorized dissolution paths.

* fix(briefs): L6 second 'five types' site + T-E-P lookup-gate authority

Per cursor review on PR #1782 (sha 2072b986):

1. L6 brief acceptance bullet at :131 still said "five types" while
   the parenthetical and the Slice step at :117 said six. The prior
   fix only caught one of two sites; corrected the second.

2. T-E-P brief `e_p_call_pattern_lookup_authoritative` acceptance
   named only `lower_call_pattern` as "the only route from call
   site to LoweringTarget" — but Phase 2 explicitly requires
   lenses route through `per_call_pattern_at` (the L-7 single-
   authority lookup), NOT `lower_call_pattern` (compiler-internal).
   Acceptance text rewritten to name `per_call_pattern_at` as the
   consumer-facing gate and clarify `lower_call_pattern`'s
   internal-only scope.

* fix(briefs): strengthen L6 ratchet from count-parity to per-row bijection

Per openai-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1782 (sha 2072b986): the L6
acceptance ratchet asserted only row-count parity between
emission_path_projections and the union of MethodTemplateContract
rows. Count parity permits duplicate projection keys and missing
source rows — the bridge from list-non-empty proxy to per-row
projection would not be mechanically proven. The whole point of
introducing MethodTemplateContractKey { target, dag_method } is to
provide 1:1 row identity.

Rewrites the ratchet to assert per-row bijection: every
MethodTemplateContract source row has exactly one matching
EmissionPathProjection row by key; every projection key resolves
to exactly one source row; duplicate projection keys fail closed.

(The other openai-pro BLOCKING finding — T-E-P
e_p_call_pattern_lookup_authoritative naming the wrong authority
— was already fixed at 6282a0704; the review citation was against
the pre-fix sha 2072b986.)

* fix(briefs): split L6 ratchet into slice-active vs deferred-activation gates

Per BLOCKING inline review on PR #1782 at d92459423: the prior
bijection ratchet was unsatisfiable as authored. The
*_method_template_contracts lists at HEAD (rust/python/go) are
non-empty; shipping emission_path_projections: [] alongside a
strict bijection requirement means the bijection cannot pass when
the slice lands — source rows would be uncovered. Prior text
incorrectly said "vacuously true on the empty source set" — the
SOURCE set isn't empty, only the projection set is.

Splits the ratchet into two gate categories:
- Slice-active gates: types/data shape exist + empty-state
  predicate (emission_path_projections == []).
- Deferred-activation gate: per-row key bijection, authored as a
  test scaffold by this slice but #[ignore]'d (or feature-gated
  on len > 0) until Grounding's follow-up populates rows. On
  activation, asserts the bijection over the populated set.

This honors P1 doc faithfulness: the slice's acceptance contract
is satisfiable as authored, and the bijection becomes the
load-bearing gate the row-population PR satisfies.

* fix(briefs): require L6 bootstrap enrollment to honor P2 facts-flow-forward

Per BLOCKING inline review on PR #1782 at L6:34: the slice authored
src/v3/std/cross_target_coverage.dag but never required enrolling
it in the bootstrap/load authority. Without enrollment the file
is dead-letter on disk and EmissionPathProjection can be absent
from the downstream Dag — silent P2 facts-flow-forward violation.

Adds a new Slice step 2 requiring a cross_target_coverage field
on BootstrapFixtures in src/v3/std/extdeps_bootstrap_fixtures.dag
mirroring the *_method_template_contracts enrollment pattern, plus
a loader-visibility ratchet. Renumbers subsequent Slice steps.
Adds matching Acceptance bullet.

* docs(briefs): normalize Practice 4 citation in S3 brief per codex review

Codex review on PR #1782 (sha 2614217e) flagged stale citation
"Practice 4 (Step 4 of the type-introduction checklist)" in
S3 brief — no such checklist step exists in the pinned rubric.

Live rule per docs/modeling-discipline.md:131-134 is the "What to
check" checkpoint-comment requirement under Practice 4 (coproduct
dissolution). Updated the S3 reference to cite that line directly
and drop the stale "Step 4 of type-introduction checklist" wording.

S2/S8/S9 already use bare "Practice 4" without the stale steps wording.
S1 (committed earlier today) does not contain the stale phrase.
S6 (pre-existing brief flagged by reviewer as carrying the same
pattern) is out of this branch's scope; flag for separate paydown.

* docs(briefs): sweep stale Practice 4 citations corpus-wide

Codex review on PR #1782 flagged the stale "Step 4 of the
type-introduction checklist" wording — no such checklist exists in
docs/modeling-discipline.md. The live rule is the "What to check"
checkpoint-comment requirement under Practice 4 (coproduct
dissolution) at docs/modeling-discipline.md:131.

Sweep across docs/ found 2 additional briefs carrying the stale
phrasing (S3 fixed previously at 9db003d40):

- docs/briefs/r3-l6-emission-path-projection-substrate-worker.md
- docs/briefs/r3-x1b-s1-transform-dispatch-substrate-worker.md

Both updated to cite the live rule directly. Verified zero
remaining "type-introduction checklist" or "Step 4 of the"
references in docs/ tree.

* docs(briefs): add Practice 4 citation discipline note to authoring checklist

Per parent inbox status flag at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385346221:
add a Citation discipline section to brief-authoring-checklist.md
naming the correct shape — Practice 4 (coproduct dissolution) +
"What to check" rule at docs/modeling-discipline.md:131 — and
calling out the stale "Step 4 of the type-introduction checklist"
phrasing as a failure mode. References the corpus sweep at
2dc92f34f.

Prevents future briefs that copy old templates from re-introducing
the stale citation pattern.

* docs(r3): cascade work post-Director ratification — S1 worker, R4 routing, Unit/Quantity canvas

Per Director ratification at gunbc#828 inbox response 2026-05-06
(zesty-bear-812):

1. S1 Q1+Q2 RATIFIED → author S1 gap-test representative worker brief
   (`r3-substrate-s1-gap-test-representative-worker.md`). Dispatchable
   on T-E-P Phase 1 + E6-G0d landing; closes ledger row #61.

2. S2 Q2 RATIFIED (option-(b) T-LBP narrowing) + S3 + S8 deferrals →
   R4 carve-out routing ledger (`docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md`).
   Captures C1 (parallelism lens), C2 (effect_enum lens), C3
   (register narrowing), C4 (deferred MachineConstraint axes),
   C5 (rounding-mode product extension), C6 (Unit/Quantity).
   Cascade messages to Verification / Grounding / Debt-Paydown Mgrs.

3. S9 Phase-3 dimensional refinement boundary → Unit/Quantity carrier
   canvas (`r3-substrate-s9-unit-quantity-carrier-canvas.md`).
   Surfaces Q-Unit-1..5 for Director ratification: carrier name,
   2-axis vs 3-axis Phase-1, Duration/Seconds collapse, Refined
   composition order, Practice 4 classification.

Updates §1.8 ledger receipts for carved items; R3 closure receipts
treat carved items as explicitly-deferred (not drift).

* docs(briefs): citation-discipline fix-forward — anchors/quotes, not line numbers

Director redirect at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... noted the citation
paydown's replacement form (`docs/modeling-discipline.md:131`) is the
same drift class as the original fabricated-step error. Bare line
numbers shift silently on any doc edit above the cited line.

Generalized fix:
- brief-authoring-checklist.md "Citation discipline" section
  rewritten to prohibit bare line-numbers across ALL cross-doc
  references (modeling-discipline.md, r3-program-plan.md,
  r3-structure.md, INVARIANTS.md, MODELING.md, etc.). Use section
  anchors (#section-name) or rule-text quotes.
- 3 briefs that swapped in :131 (S3, S6, X1B) re-converted:
  - docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution anchor
  - "What to check" rule quoted inline (self-contained)

Brief-authoring-checklist failure-mode section names both vectors
(fabricated step + bare line numbers) and references both sweep
commits in audit trail.

Broader cross-doc citation sweep across briefs I authored on this
branch (frontmatter authority-docs lists, body prose) is recommended
per Director note — flagging as separate paydown task; this commit
closes the immediate recurrence vector.

* docs(briefs): fix unfaithful Int=AbelianGroup<Nat> + sweep stale 'Step 4' refs

Per openai-pro review on PR #1782 sha 0ecd4818 (gunbc#1782 #...):

BLOCKING fix (P1 modeling faithfulness):
- S9 + S3 directed workers to model `Int = AbelianGroup<Nat>`,
  but Nat is not an Abelian-group carrier (additive inverses
  not representable). Reframed:
  - `Int` is the additive Abelian group on integers (carrier Z);
    `Nat` is a commutative monoid under addition.
  - Algebraic relationship is **explicit group-completion**:
    `Int ≡ GroupCompletion<CommutativeMonoid<Nat>>` — NOT
    `AbelianGroup<Nat>` parameterization.
  - Worker either models `Int` directly as `AbelianGroup`
    (terminal Abelian-group instance) OR introduces explicit
    `GroupCompletion<M>` substrate carrier; decision lands in
    Phase-1 PR per P1 procedure.
- S3 cross-reference + Phase-4 algebra-axis preservation note
  reframed accordingly.

NON-BLOCKING in-PR cleanup (Practice 4 citation discipline):
- 6 briefs still carrying stale 'Practice 4 Step 4' wording
  (r3-coproduct-1/2/3, r3-l6, r3-t-e-p, r3-x1b) updated to use
  the section anchor (`docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution`)
  + inline rule-text quote ("What to check") form per the
  citation discipline established in `b4cae5299`.

Closes both findings from openai-pro review.

* docs(briefs): Q-Unit-1..5 RATIFIED — apply Scale.Unit→One rename + ratification banner

Director ratified Q-Unit-1..5 at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... 2026-05-06
(zesty-bear-812). All 5 questions ratified; one rename required:

- Scale enum's `Unit` value collides with outer `Unit<Q, S>` carrier
  name (`Unit<Time, Unit>` is shadowing-confusing). Rename to `One`.
- Duration ≡ Unit<Time, One> (collapses with Seconds per Q-Unit-3).
- Milliseconds ≡ Unit<Time, Milli>.

Canvas updated:
- Top-level RATIFICATION banner records all 5 ratifications + rename
- Scale enum: `Unit` → `One` (with inline rename receipt)
- Sketch product expansions use `Unit<Time, One>` / `Unit<Time, Milli>`
- Phase-3 reframe table products updated
- Q-Unit-3 prose collapse reference updated

Subsequent worker brief authoring (Unit/Quantity carrier landing
post-prerequisite) inherits the renamed shape.

* docs(briefs): Unit/Quantity carrier worker brief — Q-Unit-1..5 RATIFIED

Worker brief consumes the ratified Unit/Quantity canvas
(`5f22fd06e` ratification banner). Phase-1 lands `Unit<Q, S>` +
`Quantity` + `Scale` declarations at the ratified shape (Scale's
`One` value per Q-Unit-1 rename). Phase-2 reframes S9 Phase-3
dimensional refinements (Duration / Seconds / Milliseconds) to
outer-Refined / inner-Unit composition per Q-Unit-4 RATIFIED.
EpochMs deferred to R4 C6 (Aspect-axis follow-up).

Practice 4 marks pre-determined per Q-Unit-5: `Unit<Q, S>` 🟢
PRIMITIVE; `Quantity` + `Scale` 🟡 SCAFFOLD with "consumed by ≥1
emission rule" dissolution trigger.

Cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for dimensional
emission consumption documented.

Worker pin TBD — dispatchable when idle pool refreshes.

* docs(briefs): S9 Phase-1 reframed — Int landed at #1466; UInt-only migration

Per proud-lynx-311 dispatch ack at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-...
2026-05-06: re-grep at HEAD revealed substrate state diverges
materially from S9 brief's "Option A vs B decide" framing.

Reality check at HEAD:
- `dsl/std/integer.dag:55` already carries
  `type Int = AbelianGroup<GroupCompletion<Nat>>` per Slice 3 PR
  #1466 / commit `4ba0a6d04`. Single-authority Q6 audit doc at
  `docs/audit/t-numeric-construction-group-completion-6q.md`
  ratified this shape and explicitly rejected the compact form.
- `dsl/std/integer.dag:56` still on legacy `type UInt = UInt64`
  alias; UInt migration is the actual Phase-1 worker scope.

Brief Phase-1 step 1 reframed: Int landing acknowledged; worker
confirms HEAD match. Phase-1 step 2 reframed: UInt migration
target named (`type UInt = CommutativeMonoid<Nat>`); fixed-width
rows preserved per existing legacy-rows policy.

Historical Option A vs B framing kept as note (superseded).

Confirmed S9 dispatch ack from worker; UInt-only Phase-1 PR is
in-scope. Emission entries deferred per S3 (valiant-ant-72
pre-landing); Phase-2 deferred per S8 (quiet-boar-160 pre-landing).

* docs(briefs): fix two BLOCKING citation drift items per codex review

Codex review on PR #1782 sha 5f22fd06 flagged two authority-receipt
gaps:

1. brief-authoring-checklist.md:118 — `<this-commit>` placeholder in
   the failure-mode section was unverifiable post-merge. Replaced
   with `b4cae5299` (the actual anchor/quote conversion commit).

2. r3-378-http-path-helper-fail-open-worker.md:84 — `INVARIANTS.md
   C-8 fail-closed` cited without anchor or rule-text quote, in
   violation of the citation discipline added in this PR.
   Converted to `INVARIANTS.md#p3-fail-closed` (P3 heading anchor)
   + inline rule-text quote naming P3 + C-8.

PR's own discipline now consistently applied across the diff.

* docs(briefs): sweep bare .md:NNN citations in Substrate-Mgr-authored briefs

* docs(briefs): fix BLOCKING + NON-BLOCKING items per openai-pro review on a462f007

Three findings addressed; 2 BLOCKING + 1 NON-BLOCKING:

BLOCKING — R3/R4 dual authority for Unit/Quantity carrier:
R4 carve-out C6 narrowed from "Unit/Quantity carrier landing"
(deferred all of it) to **"Aspect-axis (PointKind) follow-on
for EpochMs and instant/rate-shaped refinements only"**. The
2-axis Measure<Q,S> carrier landing IS in R3 per Q-Unit-1..5
RATIFIED; only the Aspect axis (PointKind = Magnitude | Instant
| Rate) carves to R4. Cascade-message C6 reference + R4 program-
plan input list updated to match. Cross-Mgr message clarifies
Grounding consumes 2-axis dimensional refinements in R3.

BLOCKING — Locked design partially applied (Scale.Unit→One
rename in canvas alternate-sketch sections):
- Canvas line 105-108 alternate sketch ("Open question: Instant
  vs Duration axis") still used pre-rename `Unit` Scale value;
  added pre-ratification disclaimer marking the section as
  deferred to R4 C6 + noting `Unit` is pre-rename
- Canvas line 163 Q-Unit-3 collapse note: `Scale = Unit` → `Scale = One`

(BLOCKING — bare line-numbers in S1 canvas frontmatter): NOT
APPLICABLE — already fixed at sweep commit 127287a66 prior to
review; reviewer was on sha a462f007 pre-sweep.

NON-BLOCKING — placeholder receipts:
- brief-authoring-checklist.md `#issuecomment-...` → concrete ID
  4385393971 (Director's anchor-discipline reply)
- r3-substrate-unit-quantity-carrier-worker.md (3 occurrences)
  + canvas RATIFICATION banner: `#issuecomment-...` → concrete ID
  4385412256 (Q-Unit ratification reply)
- `<this-commit>` placeholder in checklist already fixed at 5be1c99f2

Verification: zero `#issuecomment-...` or `<this-commit>` placeholders
in docs/briefs/ + docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md.

* docs(briefs): codex BLOCKING review fixes — Practice 4 source-level + policy scope

Three BLOCKING findings on PR #1782 (codex sha b913e2f4):

1. **Citation-discipline policy scope**: addressed by scoping
   the rule prospectively to briefs landing after the policy
   commit (`b4cae5299`). Pre-existing corpus references are
   flagged as paydown but NOT individually blocking; coordinated
   single-PR sweep is the right paydown shape. Substrate-Mgr scope
   already swept at `127287a66`.

2. **R4 C6 reconciliation**: already fixed at `6e5a5481a` (R4 C6
   narrowed to Aspect-axis follow-on for EpochMs only; 2-axis
   carrier landing IS in R3). Codex sha b913e2f4 was pre-fix.

3. **Practice 4 source-level vs PR-body conflation**: corrected.
   Acceptance bullet for Unit/Quantity worker brief now requires
   inline checkpoint comments on the LIVE declarations in
   `dsl/std/units.dag` (load-bearing artifact per
   `docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution` "What to
   check"). PR-body summary is supplementary, not substitute.

Closes the review's reconciliation gates.

* docs(briefs): absorb Q-MachineConstraint + Q-Unit-1-Recanvas ratifications

Two major Director ratifications absorbed:

1. Q-MachineConstraint-Carrier RATIFIED at gunbc#828
   #issuecomment-4385530115 (Brian directive 2026-05-06: "universal
   substrate, ratify defaults"; PR #1817 queued). 6 sub-decisions:
   - MachineWidth<bits> only for R3; defer RegisterClass / EndianMode
     / Alignment / signedness post-R3
   - Parametric Compose<Algebra, MachineConstraint> type-level
     interaction shape (lookup-maps REJECTED — AlgebraMachineProduct
     record-keyed table form retracted)
   - Int<64> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<64>> (algebra-side
     options A and B preserve interaction semantics)
   - Real<64> ≡ Compose<ApproximateField<Rational>, MachineWidth<64>>
     (algebra approx + machine approx as independent composing axes)
   - ≥3 pairs is minimum, not target
   - UNIVERSAL substrate: every target carries machine-constraint
     facts; targets without native machine-width semantics handle
     omission at Grounding-level discharge (target-conditioned
     lowering NOT target-conditioned substrate)

   Reframed: S3 brief Phase-1, S3 Phase-3/4 emission entries,
   S8 Phase-1/2/3 (ApproximateField<Real> → ApproximateField<Rational>;
   AlgebraMachineProduct → Compose<...>), S9 emission entries.

2. Q-Unit-1-Recanvas RATIFIED Measure<Q, S> at gunbc#828
   #issuecomment-4385539791. valiant-ibex-312's substrate-state
   grep caught Unit<Q, S> collision with kernel Unit at
   dsl/std/types.dag:176; Director ratified Measure<Q, S> as
   outer carrier name (conventional in scientific computing;
   no dsl/std/ collision).

   Reframed: Unit/Quantity worker brief throughout (Unit<Q,S> →
   Measure<Q,S>; dsl/std/units.dag → dsl/std/measure.dag); canvas
   spec sections + sketch products (Refined<Measure<Time, ...>...>);
   R4 carve-out C6 with informal/formal name disambiguation note.

Both rename + reshape are now consistent across S3 / S8 / S9 /
Unit-Q briefs + canvas + R4 routing. Workers (valiant-ant-72 on S3,
quiet-boar-160 on S8, proud-lynx-311 on S9, valiant-ibex-312 on
Unit-Q) all dispatch against the ratified shape.

* docs(briefs): S11 Slice C worker brief — ROADMAP :425 retirement post-#1801

Cascade-clearance trigger fired post-#1801 (Slice B) merge
2026-05-06. S11 brief authored per B1 RATIFIED prose+regen
bundling discipline.

Phase 1: per-file edits across the post-A+B residual list (~10
files per smart-ram-167's Slice B post-rebase enumeration);
anchor + rule-text-quote pattern per current citation discipline;
bootstrap regen in same PR (no split).

Phase 2: ROADMAP :425 row PARTIAL → Retired with 3-slice receipt;
Q-Slice-C-Retirement-Receipt resolution.

Worker pin smart-ram-167 (#1759) — Slice B precedent owner.
Dispatch packet sent separately to #1759.

* docs(briefs): Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) RATIFIED — defer literal Refined form

Director ratified option (c) at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... 2026-05-06:
drop `non_negative` predicate at Measure (phantom) layer; rely on
`Quantity = Time` tagging for non-negative-magnitude semantics.

Q-Unit-4 outer-Refined / inner-Measure composition is preserved as
**conceptual model**; the literal `Refined<Measure<...>, predicate>`
form is **deferred to value-typed-integration follow-up** when
substrate gains Refined<> as first-class type expression and
dimensional refinements get value-typed integration.

Updates:
- Canvas RATIFICATION banner Q-Unit-4 row reframed to "conceptual
  model; literal form deferred"
- Canvas Phase-3 reframe table: Duration / Milliseconds drop the
  Refined<...> wrapper; rely on Quantity tag
- Worker brief Phase-2 prose + reframe table + Acceptance bullet
  all reflect deferred-literal-form posture

valiant-ibex-312 unblocked to proceed with Phase-2 (Grounding
handoff doc) per the (c)-shaped Acceptance.

* docs(briefs): S12 F2 + F8 doc-sharpening worker brief — post-#1820 cascade

#1820 (Slice C) merged 2026-05-06; ROADMAP :425 row Retired closes
the prose-reference paydown program. S12 cascade-clearance trigger
fires per B6 RATIFIED single bundled Mgr-tier doc-sharpening PR.

Scope: F2 (.v3 filename-suffix grammar dispatch) + F8 (bootstrap
load-order/exclusion authority) — single bundled PR per B6.
Cross-program coordination with PB Mgr (#1742) per design schedule
§3 P5 (comment-only OR co-author; no duplicate PR).

Worker pin smart-ram-167 (#1759) — Slice C precedent owner;
pattern-familiar with prose+regen bundling discipline. Dispatch
packet sent separately to #1759.

* docs(briefs): S9 brief — UInt landed via #1818; algebra label corrected to CommutativeSemiring

Per proud-lynx-311 merge report at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-...
2026-05-06: PR #1818 landed `type UInt = Nat` after codex BLOCKING
review on initial `CommutativeMonoid<Nat>` form (P2 facts-flow-forward
violation — wrap projects out Nat's multiplicative monoid + identity 1).

Final landed form preserves full `CommutativeSemiring<Magnitude>`
surface — Nat IS a commutative semiring (addition + multiplication
+ 0 + 1). Algebra-side label for UInt is CommutativeSemiring, NOT
CommutativeMonoid (corrects my earlier dispatch labeling).

S9 Phase-1 step 2 marked LANDED with merge ref. Phase-1 step 3
emission entries reframed:
- Int<N> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<N>>
- UInt<N> ≡ Compose<CommutativeSemiring, MachineWidth<N>>

Worker discipline + reviewer caught a substrate-state error in my
brief framing; brief now matches landed reality.

* docs(briefs): fix contradictory (c) guidance in Unit/Quantity worker brief

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1825 sha 1bce0418 caught a real
contradiction: brief Phase-2 prose at lines 115-118 stated
"predicates do NOT attach at the Measure (phantom) layer" per
Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) RATIFIED, but immediately
following paragraph at lines 130-132 still said "Refined predicate
non_negative applies at the Measure-typed level" — left over from
the original Q-Unit-4 framing.

Updated lines 130-137 to consistently apply (c) shape: predicates
deferred to value-typed-integration follow-up; dimensional semantics
ride on Quantity tag at Measure layer; worker authors 3 in-scope
refinements WITHOUT predicate at this layer.

P2 boundary discipline restored: brief now gives single-authority
guidance for Phase-2 substrate landing.

* docs(briefs): name predicate authority + concretize ratification ID — codex BLOCKING

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1825 sha 32541a56:

1. (BLOCKING) Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) ratification deferred
   phantom-carrier predicates without naming the value-level predicate
   authority. Updated canvas Q-Unit-4 RATIFICATION row to explicitly
   name: 'predicates re-attach at value-typed Int/UInt level via
   where-sugar (e.g., range(min: 0) per current dsl/std/types.dag
   precedent)' when value-typed integration lands.

2. (BLOCKING) Worker brief option-c reframe didn't sweep the audit
   receipt §5 (Carrier dissolves the bridge). Updated to consistently
   apply (c) shape — dimensional semantics ride on Quantity tag at
   Measure layer; value-level predicate authority deferred; until
   then, range/gt_zero constraints attach at value-typed Int/UInt
   via where-sugar per dsl/std/types.dag convention.

3. (NON-BLOCKING) Canvas had #issuecomment-... placeholder for the
   (c) ratification message ID. Replaced with concrete
   #issuecomment-4385687075 per dashboard relay header.

Brief now names a single value-level authority (Int/UInt where-sugar)
for value-range facts; phantom-layer Quantity tag carries only
dimensional semantics. P2 boundary discipline maintained.

* docs(briefs): S12 RETIRED per Director option (2) ratification

Director ratified option (2) at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385873...
2026-05-06 post smart-ram-167's substrate-state STOP-AND-ESCALATE:

- F2 absorbed by 2026-05-04 routing + #1662 closure
  (`Result/DivError span.file-keyed` retired)
- F8 topical concerns distributed across live rows
  (Class 5 Gap 3 `bootstrap.rs::std_fixtures()`; Character-level
  load-set / bootstrap; Filename-sentinel-bridges) with own owners
- Doc-discipline goals absorbed by per-Mgr citation paydown
  routing at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385583247

Frontmatter updated to RETIRED with absorption receipt. Worker
(smart-ram-167) pin freed.

Director-side acknowledgment of Substrate Mgr's option (2) recommendation:
"Substrate Mgr's option (2) recommendation is the right move
structurally. Most Mgrs default to 'synthesize work to fill the brief'
when canvas-vs-HEAD mismatch surfaces. Recommending retirement when
the work is genuinely absorbed is harder discipline."

* docs(briefs): S7 PR-F (BoundDeclaration consumer + ReferenceModel<T>) worker brief

Per cascade-clearance trigger fired post-#1782 merge 2026-05-06.
loyal-wolf-828 (#1764) acknowledged S7 dispatch with substrate-state
pre-flight grep (gunbc#1764 #issuecomment-4385872...) and surfaced
await-brief posture. This brief satisfies that prerequisite.

Worker pre-flight inventory absorbed:
- BoundDeclaration substrate landed (substrate.dag StaticBound +
  PlatformDependent); partial BoundDeclarationView consumer in
  fold.rs (ScratchIntExamples scope; doc-explicit partial)
- ReferenceModel<T> NOT yet in dsl/std/ (substrate-fact-introduction
  required; design-emission-model.md §Q2 framing)

Phase-1: BoundDeclaration consumer broadening to full
design-emission-model.md surface (u128 / isize / usize / walker
arms / pilot mirror).

Phase-2: ReferenceModel<T> P1 substrate-fact-introduction with
DFS-of-concept-DAG + Practice 4 in-source checkpoint comment +
named consumer demand (Grounding G1).

Phase-3: cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for
G1 (T-Ground-Rust Phase 1).

Closure predicate: unblocks Grounding T-Ground-Rust Phase 1.
Worker pin loyal-wolf-828 holds; dispatch fires immediately
on this brief landing.

* docs(briefs): S9 Slice 2.5 — predicate-registry + PB-1 shim retirement (Path 3 RATIFIED)

Director ratified Path 3 at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4390333451
post proud-lynx-311's pre-flight DFS at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-4390253616.

Brief reframes Slice 2.5 from S-sized (primitive + 1 consumer) to
L-sized (predicate registry + PB-1 shim retirement). 5 deliverables:
1. gt_zero primitive predicate
2. Predicate registry infrastructure (resolver-side substrate-fact-introduction)
3. PB-1 shim retirement (span.file=='dsl/std/types.dag' special case dissolves)
4. Migration of existing types.dag predicates (range, pattern, etc.)
5. PositiveInt = Refined<Nat, gt_zero> consumer update

Per Director hard scope bars: no parallel predicate-resolution path;
no per-call-site special-casing; PB-1 shim retirement non-negotiable
in same slice. Single PR per Path 3 RATIFIED.

Discipline anchors: feedback_construction_over_ratchets (PB-1 shim
is bridge); feedback_dissolve_bridges (registry is structural fix);
feedback_no_textual_enforcement_bridges (file-path special-case is
anti-pattern shape); P1 substrate-fact-introduction procedure.

Worker pin proud-lynx-311 — Director pre-cleared on pre-flight DFS
context. PR #1840 (partial Slice 2 — NonNegativeInt = Nat) MERGED
at 16:54Z; Slice 2.5 dispatchable immediately on this brief landing.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 audit receipt — Mgr independent grep parallel-verifies worker DFS

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1845 sha 2d230949 flagged: external PR
receipt absorbed as live substrate state without re-grepping local
std declarations at brief authoring time. Authority receipt §1
cited proud-lynx-311's pre-flight DFS as authority but didn't
record Mgr-side independent verification.

Updated audit receipt §1 + §4 to record Mgr's independent grep at
HEAD as parallel verification:
- gt_zero zero matches in dsl/std/ + src/v3/ (verified)
- NonNegativeInt = Nat at dsl/std/integer.dag:133 (#1840 land)
- PositiveInt = Int where range(min: 1) at dsl/std/types.dag:255
- PB-1 shim doc-block confirms bridge-text framing
- Predicate registry confirmed not present

Worker DFS remains the dispatch-time discipline (substrate-state
grep at dispatch); Mgr's independent grep is parallel verification,
not substitute. Per Director's pattern note at gunbc#828
#issuecomment-4390199218 + #issuecomment-4390333451: dispatch-packet
authoring discipline includes Mgr-side substrate-state-grep, not
just relay of worker findings.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Int extensibility scope-bound; lower.rs cites anchored

openai-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1845 sha 2d230949 flagged 2 issues:

BLOCKING — P1 modeling faithfulness / substrate scope leak:
`gt_zero` Int-side extensibility was left to 'worker judgment if
generalization cheap'. Per feedback_construction_over_ratchets:
don't speculatively extend predicate-carrier compatibility ahead
of named consumer demand. Reframed to **EXPLICITLY OUT-OF-SCOPE**
for Slice 2.5; Nat-only registration. Future Int-side consumer
surfaces as separate substrate-fact-introduction (P1 procedure)
brief with own consumer-demand receipt.

NON-BLOCKING — citation discipline self-violation:
3 instances of bare `lower.rs:821-835` line-range citations
contradict the brief's own 'no bare :NNN' requirement at line 211.
Converted to function-name anchored form:
`src/v3/compiler/src/lower.rs` (`lower_type_alias_refinements_phase` doc-block).

Both findings absorbed; no parallel scope ambiguity remains;
brief now self-consistent on citation discipline.

* WIP: R3 Substrate

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — audit-receipt cites converted to declaration-name anchors

cursor APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS on PR #1845 sha ebf6ac12 noted citation
self-inconsistency: audit-receipt section §1 + §4 used bare
`dsl/std/integer.dag:133` and `dsl/std/types.dag:255` line-number
pins despite the brief's own no-bare-:NNN rule.

Converted to declaration-name-anchored form:
- 'declaration named NonNegativeInt' (with reproducible grep command)
- 'declaration named PositiveInt' (with reproducible grep command)
- 'lower_type_alias_refinements_phase doc-block' for PB-1 location

Brief now fully self-consistent on its own citation discipline.
Verified zero remaining .dag:NNN / .rs:NNN / .md:NNN bare cites.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Path (a) RATIFIED carrier+argument contract verification

Director Path (a) RATIFIED at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4390760353
(triage) + #issuecomment-4390794121 (convergence ack):
predicate-body lowering with carrier+argument contract
verification at lower-time IN SAME SLICE. Placeholder semantics
REMOVED from registry path.

Codex REQUEST_CHANGES surfaced that registered-predicate-without-
contract = silent acceptance per feedback_fail_closed_discipline.
Brief reframe absorbs Path (a):

Hard scope bar #5 added:
- Same-slice carrier+argument-contract verification
- Mismatched carrier OR malformed argument → Diagnostic::ResolveError
- No 'named but not checked' path remains

Scope expansion section added (L → XL):
- Predicate-body lowering for all 7 registered predicates
- Per-predicate arg-shape validation
- Multi-session work acknowledged
- Carrier-check at 788d6acb4 retained; predicate-body builds on top

Acceptance bullets updated: gt_zero with arg-shape validation +
all 7 predicates with carrier+argument contract verification.

Director-pinned brief-authoring discipline: dissolution trigger
named in a brief authored as substrate-fact-introduction must
specify same-slice acceptance, not deferred follow-up. Otherwise
the brief encodes 'land bridge + defer dissolution' anti-pattern,
the same shape feedback_construction_over_ratchets warns against
at implementation layer applied at brief authoring layer.

This is the 11th miss this session — but the pattern surfacing it
(direct sweep + Codex REQUEST_CHANGES + Director ratification)
produces structural fixes that prevent the next miss class. Brief
revision is the structural recovery.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Path 2 RATIFIED (Gap 1 discharge + Q-Regex carve-out)

Director Path 2 RATIFIED at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4391985613
post Rung 3 STOP at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-4391946213.

Path 2 narrowing of Path (a):
- gt_zero + range body synthesis already landed (5f3c40c3a)
- Gap 1 discharge mechanism: extends scalar-literal predicate
  evaluation at lower-time. L-class; lands SAME SLICE per
  same-slice-dissolution discipline
- non_empty + brand body synthesis: lands via Gap 1 discharge
- pattern / format / content: fail-closed-with-named-dep at
  user-code authoring layer (Diagnostic::ResolveError naming
  Q-Regex-Primitive). NOT placeholder; structural rejection
- PB-1 shim FULLY RETIRED per hard scope bar #3
- Q-Regex-Primitive carved as follow-on substrate-fact-introduction
  (XL substrate; not pre-authored per feedback_construction_over_ratchets)

Acceptance updated:
- 4 of 7 body-synthesized in same slice
- 3 of 7 fail-closed-with-named-dep (no placeholder semantics)
- Gap 1 discharge mechanism landed (no partial implementation)

Worker disposition: proud-lynx-311 continues Rung 3 with Gap 1
implementation + non_empty/brand body synthesis + pattern/format/
content fail-closed-with-named-dep diagnostic.

* docs(briefs): S9 Phase-1 Step 3 emission entries — Tier-1 brief authoring (1/5)

First Tier-1 brief landing post Director auto-nudge on assignment
#1858. Authored against Q-MachineConstraint sub-decisions ratified

- UInt<N> ≡ Compose<CommutativeSemiring, MachineWidth<N>> → Rust u32/u64/u128
- 6 concrete instantiations (≥3 minimum per sub-decision 5)
- Cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for G2 emission consumption
- numeric_construction_demonstration Acceptance bullet (Int<32> round-trip);

Brief authored with substrate-state-grep discipline + same-slice-

#issuecomment-4392095857 + Tier-1 brief-queue commitment.

Brief covers parser-grammar surface for Compose<Algebra, MachineConstraint>

- Phase 2.1: Parser surface per ratified Q-MachineConstraint-Grammar-Shape
- Phase 2.2: Bootstrap demonstrator with >=3 algebra*machine-axis pairs
- Phase 2.3: Class 1 5-criteria Pass receipt (criteria 1-4; criterion 5
  v2-oracle parity may carve)
- Phase 2.4: numeric_construction_demonstration co-receipt with S9 Phase-1

Director ratification HOLDS on grammar bikeshed:
- Candidate A: Int @ Width<32> (annotation form)
- Candidate B: Int with MachineWidth<32> (with-form)
- Candidate C: Int<32> (positional generic — fits existing convention)
- Candidate D: Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<32>> (no parser change;
  type aliases provide convenience names)

Worker pin valiant-ant-72 holds (S3 Phase-1 precedent owner); freed-pool

Remaining: S9 Phase-2 Float coordination; T-LBP complexity cementing;
T-LBP cost cementing.

* docs(briefs): S3 Phase-2 brief — fix internal contradiction on Class 1 closure scope

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1889 sha ec609b4a flagged real
contradiction:

- Provenance section claimed '5-criteria Pass closed' (line 229)
- Phase 2.3 said 'criterion 5 may queue separately' (line 154)
- STOP-AND-ESCALATE bullet 1 ratified 4-of-5 carve-out (line 181)

Updated Provenance to consistently state criteria 1-4 close in this
slice; criterion 5 (v2-oracle parity) cementing test may carve to
separate slice. Single 4-of-5 framing throughout. INVARIANTS.md
'Documentation Describes Live State' satisfied.

Per feedback_construction_over_ratchets: don't claim closure that
isn't structurally complete. 4-of-5 + named carve is the honest
shape; 5/5 only on cementing-test land.

Address openai-pro BLOCKING + NON-BLOCKING findings on PR #1889:

BLOCKING (boundary discipline / same-PR consumer): S9 Phase-1 Step 3
+ Phase-2 Float briefs claimed DECLARED → CONSUMER_LANDED upon merge
while only requiring cross-program handoff receipt to Grounding G2.
For target-primitive substrate entries, handoff is not landed-consumer
proof. Reframed both briefs to advance rows DECLARED → PRODUCER_LANDED;
Grounding G2 follow-on PR (per-pair lowering rules + emitted-Rust-
primitive verification) advances to CONSUMER_LANDED. Default
split-PR producer-then-consumer per bundled-scope discipline ratified
at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392225548 (parallel infrastructure
DISALLOWED in same PR).

NON-BLOCKING (citation hygiene): replaced ellipsized
"#issuecomment-4392..." stubs in slice-2.5 brief with the exact
Director Option-4-rejection comment ID #issuecomment-4392081719 so
the ratification claim is mechanically checkable.

Director ratified Option A revised at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392329709
(2026-05-06). Final brief shape:
- 4 predicates body-synthesize via Gap 1 (gt_zero / range / non_empty
  / brand)
- pattern / format / content STRUCTURALLY ABSENT from registry (not
  pending-with-placeholder); user-code where-clause produces
  Diagnostic::ResolveError naming Q-Regex-Primitive as separate
  substrate-fact-introduction follow-on
- ~12 types.dag refined-type declarations migrate to drop
  pattern/format/content where-clauses with inline-comment receipts
  pointing to Q-Regex restoration path; 1 extdep (sts_endpoint)
  adapts as needed
- PB-1 shim FULLY RETIRED — no exception, no preserved branch
- Q-Regex-Primitive as separate brief / worker pin / Director
  ratification cycle when concretely needed (Option B XXL bundling
  REJECTED)

Phase ordering rewritten to absorb migration as explicit phase
between predicate enrollment and shim retirement. proud-lynx-311

Substrate Mgr canvas authored post-codex BLOCKING + PM disposition
handoff at gunbc#846 #issuecomment-4392510255.

Two real substrate-shape questions stacked:

Q1 (category mismatch): Lens<C>.read is per-Behavior; emission
provenance is per-emitted-line. 4 options surfaced — (a) per-Behavior
Lens-compatible / (b) per-line instrumentation NOT a lens / (c)
withdraw + re-canvas / (d) Mgr-surface both substrates distinct.
Mgr recommends (d) if visualization is load-bearing; (a) suffices
if per-Behavior aggregate works for the slide. Brian-channel
sub-question surfaced.

Q2 (fold-rule enumerability): T-Rule-Enumeration substrate-fact-
introduction is prerequisite for every Q1 path (rust_target.rs uses
inline &str template names; rules not enumerable). Mgr recommends
parallel-dispatch with Q1 deliberation — satisfies Brian's ASAP
framing while shape ratifies.

Q3 (§1.8 ledger retarget): #89 already taken by T-LAS; new cluster
location follows Q1 disposition.

Director ratification ask + Brian-channel sub-question surfaced.

#issuecomment-4385530115:

Slot-1 is the fully-applied algebraic-concept name:

- UInt<N> = Compose<UInt, MachineWidth<N>>   (UInt = CommutativeSemiring<Nat>)

* briefs: address codex BLOCKING bundle (sha 2ed1046e) — record-form provenance + emit_model carrier alignment + T-Rule-Enumeration retirement flag

Three findings addressed:

1. Lens brief (Finding #1 — provenance shape conflates source vs rule
   attribution): replaced typed-sum EmissionOrigin with record
   EmissionProvenance { rule: EmissionRule [mandatory], source_span:
   Option<SourceSpan> [optional] }. Co-inhabitance is real (e.g.,
   #[derive(Debug)] line has both rule=derive_for_disj AND span
   attribution to Foo decl). Rule-mandatory enforces fail-closed
   structurally; Practice 4 N/A (record, not coproduct).

2. T-Rule-Enumeration brief (Finding #2 — rule authority lives in
   spec/rust.dag + v3.std.emit_model, not call-site strings): brief
   status flipped to FLAGGED FOR RETIREMENT. Same finding as
   smart-ram-167 STOP at gunbc#1759 #issuecomment-4392696623; Reading
   C surfaced to Director at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4392780871.

3. Rust-primitive-full-coverage brief (Finding #3 — BoundDeclaration
   not wired into TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound row surface):
   reframed Deliverable 2 to target the actual carrier
   `v3.std.emit_model::TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound` (used by
   `TargetIntegerTypeInhabitance` rows in src/v3/spec/rust.dag lines
   169-207). Two paths surfaced: Option (i) wire BoundDeclaration into
   TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound; Option (ii) populate via existing

HEAD: TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound = BoundUnspecified | StaticBoundFact(IntInterval).
No PlatformDependent variant. Earlier brief framing of Option (ii)
(populate via existing variants) was infeasible.

Brief reframed: carrier refactor is required (not optional). Two
structural shapes for the refactor — (i.a) embed BoundDeclaration
(Mgr recommendation; single-authority discipline) vs (i.b) extend
variant set with PlatformDependent. Existing 5 rows migrate either
way; bootstrap snapshot semantic-equivalence non-negotiable.

Per codex review on PR #1782 (sha c2512cde): the new briefs

   Updated both occurrences to enumerate all six explicitly.

2. r3-435 brief authorized both Path A (typed-AST reader, deletes

* fix(briefs): L6 second 'five types' site + T-E-P lookup-gate authority

Per cursor review on PR #1782 (sha 2072b986):

1. L6 brief acceptance bullet at :131 still said "five types" while
   the parenthetical and the Slice step at :117 said six. The prior
   fix only caught one of two sites; corrected the second.

2. T-E-P brief `e_p_call_pattern_lookup_authoritative` acceptance
   named only `lower_call_pattern` as "the only route from call
   site to LoweringTarget" — but Phase 2 explicitly requires
   lenses route through `per_call_pattern_at` (the L-7 single-
   authority lookup), NOT `lower_call_pattern` (compiler-internal).
   Acceptance text rewritten to name `per_call_pattern_at` as the
   consumer-facing gate and clarify `lower_call_pattern`'s
   internal-only scope.

* fix(briefs): strengthen L6 ratchet from count-parity to per-row bijection

Per openai-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1782 (sha 2072b986): the L6
acceptance ratchet asserted only row-count parity between
emission_path_projections and the union of MethodTemplateContract
rows. Count parity permits duplicate projection keys and missing
source rows — the bridge from list-non-empty proxy to per-row
projection would not be mechanically proven. The whole point of
introducing MethodTemplateContractKey { target, dag_method } is to
provide 1:1 row identity.

Rewrites the ratchet to assert per-row bijection: every
MethodTemplateContract source row has exactly one matching
EmissionPathProjection row by key; every projection key resolves
to exactly one source row; duplicate projection keys fail closed.

(The other openai-pro BLOCKING finding — T-E-P
e_p_call_pattern_lookup_authoritative naming the wrong authority
— was already fixed at 6282a0704; the review citation was against
the pre-fix sha 2072b986.)

* fix(briefs): split L6 ratchet into slice-active vs deferred-activation gates

Per BLOCKING inline review on PR #1782 at d92459423: the prior
bijection ratchet was unsatisfiable as authored. The
*_method_template_contracts lists at HEAD (rust/python/go) are
non-empty; shipping emission_path_projections: [] alongside a
strict bijection requirement means the bijection cannot pass when
the slice lands — source rows would be uncovered. Prior text
incorrectly said "vacuously true on the empty source set" — the
SOURCE set isn't empty, only the projection set is.

Splits the ratchet into two gate categories:
- Slice-active gates: types/data shape exist + empty-state
  predicate (emission_path_projections == []).
- Deferred-activation gate: per-row key bijection, authored as a
  test scaffold by this slice but #[ignore]'d (or feature-gated
  on len > 0) until Grounding's follow-up populates rows. On
  activation, asserts the bijection over the populated set.

This honors P1 doc faithfulness: the slice's acceptance contract
is satisfiable as authored, and the bijection becomes the
load-bearing gate the row-population PR satisfies.

* fix(briefs): require L6 bootstrap enrollment to honor P2 facts-flow-forward

Per BLOCKING inline review on PR #1782 at L6:34: the slice authored
src/v3/std/cross_target_coverage.dag but never required enrolling
it in the bootstrap/load authority. Without enrollment the file
is dead-letter on disk and EmissionPathProjection can be absent
from the downstream Dag — silent P2 facts-flow-forward violation.

Adds a new Slice step 2 requiring a cross_target_coverage field
on BootstrapFixtures in src/v3/std/extdeps_bootstrap_fixtures.dag
mirroring the *_method_template_contracts enrollment pattern, plus
a loader-visibility ratchet. Renumbers subsequent Slice steps.
Adds matching Acceptance bullet.

* docs(briefs): normalize Practice 4 citation in S3 brief per codex review

Codex review on PR #1782 (sha 2614217e) flagged stale citation
"Practice 4 (Step 4 of the type-introduction checklist)" in
S3 brief — no such checklist step exists in the pinned rubric.

Live rule per docs/modeling-discipline.md:131-134 is the "What to
check" checkpoint-comment requirement under Practice 4 (coproduct
dissolution). Updated the S3 reference to cite that line directly
and drop the stale "Step 4 of type-introduction checklist" wording.

S2/S8/S9 already use bare "Practice 4" without the stale steps wording.
S1 (committed earlier today) does not contain the stale phrase.
S6 (pre-existing brief flagged by reviewer as carrying the same
pattern) is out of this branch's scope; flag for separate paydown.

* docs(briefs): sweep stale Practice 4 citations corpus-wide

Codex review on PR #1782 flagged the stale "Step 4 of the
type-introduction checklist" wording — no such checklist exists in
docs/modeling-discipline.md. The live rule is the "What to check"
checkpoint-comment requirement under Practice 4 (coproduct
dissolution) at docs/modeling-discipline.md:131.

Sweep across docs/ found 2 additional briefs carrying the stale
phrasing (S3 fixed previously at 9db003d40):

- docs/briefs/r3-l6-emission-path-projection-substrate-worker.md
- docs/briefs/r3-x1b-s1-transform-dispatch-substrate-worker.md

Both updated to cite the live rule directly. Verified zero
remaining "type-introduction checklist" or "Step 4 of the"
references in docs/ tree.

* docs(briefs): add Practice 4 citation discipline note to authoring checklist

Per parent inbox status flag at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385346221:
add a Citation discipline section to brief-authoring-checklist.md
naming the correct shape — Practice 4 (coproduct dissolution) +
"What to check" rule at docs/modeling-discipline.md:131 — and
calling out the stale "Step 4 of the type-introduction checklist"
phrasing as a failure mode. References the corpus sweep at
2dc92f34f.

   Cascade messages to Verification / Grounding / Debt-Paydown Mgrs.

3. S9 Phase-3 dimensional refinement boundary → Unit/Quantity carrier
   canvas (`r3-substrate-s9-unit-quantity-carrier-canvas.md`).
   Surfaces Q-Unit-1..5 for Director ratification: carrier name,
   2-axis vs 3-axis Phase-1, Duration/Seconds collapse, Refined
   composition order, Practice 4 classification.

Updates §1.8 ledger receipts for carved items; R3 closure receipts
treat carved items as explicitly-deferred (not drift).

* docs(briefs): citation-discipline fix-forward — anchors/quotes, not line numbers

Director redirect at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... noted the citation
paydown's replacement form (`docs/modeling-discipline.md:131`) is the
same drift class as the original fabricated-step error. Bare line
numbers shift silently on any doc edit above the cited line.

Generalized fix:
- brief-authoring-checklist.md "Citation discipline" section
  rewritten to prohibit bare line-numbers across ALL cross-doc
  references (modeling-discipline.md, r3-program-plan.md,
  r3-structure.md, INVARIANTS.md, MODELING.md, etc.). Use section
  anchors (#section-name) or rule-text quotes.
- 3 briefs that swapped in :131 (S3, S6, X1B) re-converted:
  - docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution anchor
  - "What to check" rule quoted inline (self-contained)

Brief-authoring-checklist failure-mode section names both vectors
(fabricated step + bare line numbers) and references both sweep
commits in audit trail.

Broader cross-doc citation sweep across briefs I authored on this
branch (frontmatter authority-docs lists, body prose) is recommended
per Director note — flagging as separate paydown task; this commit
closes the immediate recurrence vector.

* docs(briefs): fix unfaithful Int=AbelianGroup<Nat> + sweep stale 'Step 4' refs

Per openai-pro review on PR #1782 sha 0ecd4818 (gunbc#1782 #...):

BLOCKING fix (P1 modeling faithfulness):
- S9 + S3 directed workers to model `Int = AbelianGroup<Nat>`,
  but Nat is not an Abelian-group carrier (additive inverses
  not representable). Reframed:
  - `Int` is the additive Abelian group on integers (carrier Z);
    `Nat` is a commutative monoid under addition.
  - Algebraic relationship is **explicit group-completion**:
    `Int ≡ GroupCompletion<CommutativeMonoid<Nat>>` — NOT
    `AbelianGroup<Nat>` parameterization.
  - Worker either models `Int` directly as `AbelianGroup`
    (terminal Abelian-group instance) OR introduces explicit
    `GroupCompletion<M>` substrate carrier; decision lands in
    Phase-1 PR per P1 procedure.
- S3 cross-reference + Phase-4 algebra-axis preservation note
  reframed accordingly.

NON-BLOCKING in-PR cleanup (Practice 4 citation discipline):
- 6 briefs still carrying stale 'Practice 4 Step 4' wording
  (r3-coproduct-1/2/3, r3-l6, r3-t-e-p, r3-x1b) updated to use
  the section anchor (`docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution`)
  + inline rule-text quote ("What to check") form per the
  citation discipline established in `b4cae5299`.

Closes both findings from openai-pro review.

* docs(briefs): Q-Unit-1..5 RATIFIED — apply Scale.Unit→One rename + ratification banner

Director ratified Q-Unit-1..5 at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... 2026-05-06
(zesty-bear-812). All 5 questions ratified; one rename required:

- Scale enum's `Unit` value collides with outer `Unit<Q, S>` carrier
  name (`Unit<Time, Unit>` is shadowing-confusing). Rename to `One`.
- Duration ≡ Unit<Time, One> (collapses with Seconds per Q-Unit-3).
- Milliseconds ≡ Unit<Time, Milli>.

Canvas updated:
- Top-level RATIFICATION banner records all 5 ratifications + rename
- Scale enum: `Unit` → `One` (with inline rename receipt)
- Sketch product expansions use `Unit<Time, One>` / `Unit<Time, Milli>`
- Phase-3 reframe table products updated
- Q-Unit-3 prose collapse reference updated

Subsequent worker brief authoring (Unit/Quantity carrier landing
post-prerequisite) inherits the renamed shape.

* docs(briefs): Unit/Quantity carrier worker brief — Q-Unit-1..5 RATIFIED

Worker brief consumes the ratified Unit/Quantity canvas
(`5f22fd06e` ratification banner). Phase-1 lands `Unit<Q, S>` +
`Quantity` + `Scale` declarations at the ratified shape (Scale's
`One` value per Q-Unit-1 rename). Phase-2 reframes S9 Phase-3
dimensional refinements (Duration / Seconds / Milliseconds) to
outer-Refined / inner-Unit composition per Q-Unit-4 RATIFIED.
EpochMs deferred to R4 C6 (Aspect-axis follow-up).

Practice 4 marks pre-determined per Q-Unit-5: `Unit<Q, S>` 🟢
PRIMITIVE; `Quantity` + `Scale` 🟡 SCAFFOLD with "consumed by ≥1
emission rule" dissolution trigger.

Cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for dimensional
emission consumption documented.

Worker pin TBD — dispatchable when idle pool refreshes.

* docs(briefs): S9 Phase-1 reframed — Int landed at #1466; UInt-only migration

Per proud-lynx-311 dispatch ack at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-...
2026-05-06: re-grep at HEAD revealed substrate state diverges
materially from S9 brief's "Option A vs B decide" framing.

Reality check at HEAD:
- `dsl/std/integer.dag:55` already carries
  `type Int = AbelianGroup<GroupCompletion<Nat>>` per Slice 3 PR
  #1466 / commit `4ba0a6d04`. Single-authority Q6 audit doc at
  `docs/audit/t-numeric-construction-group-completion-6q.md`
  ratified this shape and explicitly rejected the compact form.
- `dsl/std/integer.dag:56` still on legacy `type UInt = UInt64`
  alias; UInt migration is the actual Phase-1 worker scope.

Brief Phase-1 step 1 reframed: Int landing acknowledged; worker
confirms HEAD match. Phase-1 step 2 reframed: UInt migration
target named (`type UInt = CommutativeMonoid<Nat>`); fixed-width
rows preserved per existing legacy-rows policy.

Historical Option A vs B framing kept as note (superseded).

Confirmed S9 dispatch ack from worker; UInt-only Phase-1 PR is
in-scope. Emission entries deferred per S3 (valiant-ant-72
pre-landing); Phase-2 deferred per S8 (quiet-boar-160 pre-landing).

* docs(briefs): fix two BLOCKING citation drift items per codex review

Codex review on PR #1782 sha 5f22fd06 flagged two authority-receipt
gaps:

1. brief-authoring-checklist.md:118 — `<this-commit>` placeholder in
   the failure-mode section was unverifiable post-merge. Replaced
   with `b4cae5299` (the actual anchor/quote conversion commit).

2. r3-378-http-path-helper-fail-open-worker.md:84 — `INVARIANTS.md
   C-8 fail-closed` cited without anchor or rule-text quote, in
   violation of the citation discipline added in this PR.
   Converted to `INVARIANTS.md#p3-fail-closed` (P3 heading anchor)
   + inline rule-text quote naming P3 + C-8.

PR's own discipline now consistently applied across the diff.

* docs(briefs): sweep bare .md:NNN citations in Substrate-Mgr-authored briefs

Per Director recommendation in citation-discipline thread (gunbc#828
follow-on): bare line-number references drift silently. Swept 19
remaining instances across 5 briefs I authored on this branch:

- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s1-q-class-2-chain-break-gap-test-canvas.md
- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s1-gap-test-representative-worker.md
- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s2-t-lbp-scope-calibration-canvas.md
- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s3-machine-constraint-carrier-worker.md

Conversion: bare `file.md:NNN` → `file.md §"Section name"` form.
Stable; survives doc edits; human-readable. Section names per
HEAD heading audit.

Verification: `grep -nE '.md:[0-9]+' docs/briefs/r3-substrate-*.md
docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md` returns zero results in
Substrate-Mgr-authored scope.

Broader corpus scope (~232 references across non-Substrate briefs)
remains as separate paydown task.

* docs(briefs): fix BLOCKING + NON-BLOCKING items per openai-pro review on a462f007

Three findings addressed; 2 BLOCKING + 1 NON-BLOCKING:

BLOCKING — R3/R4 dual authority for Unit/Quantity carrier:
R4 carve-out C6 narrowed from "Unit/Quantity carrier landing"
(deferred all of it) to **"Aspect-axis (PointKind) follow-on
for EpochMs and instant/rate-shaped refinements only"**. The
2-axis Measure<Q,S> carrier landing IS in R3 per Q-Unit-1..5
RATIFIED; only the Aspect axis (PointKind = Magnitude | Instant
| Rate) carves to R4. Cascade-message C6 reference + R4 program-
plan input list updated to match. Cross-Mgr message clarifies
Grounding consumes 2-axis dimensional refinements in R3.

BLOCKING — Locked design partially applied (Scale.Unit→One
rename in canvas alternate-sketch sections):
- Canvas line 105-108 alternate sketch ("Open question: Instant
  vs Duration axis") still used pre-rename `Unit` Scale value;
  added pre-ratification disclaimer marking the section as
  deferred to R4 C6 + noting `Unit` is pre-rename
- Canvas line 163 Q-Unit-3 collapse note: `Scale = Unit` → `Scale = One`

(BLOCKING — bare line-numbers in S1 canvas frontmatter): NOT
APPLICABLE — already fixed at sweep commit 127287a66 prior to
review; reviewer was on sha a462f007 pre-sweep.

NON-BLOCKING — placeholder receipts:
- brief-authoring-checklist.md `#issuecomment-...` → concrete ID
  4385393971 (Director's anchor-discipline reply)
- r3-substrate-unit-quantity-carrier-worker.md (3 occurrences)
  + canvas RATIFICATION banner: `#issuecomment-...` → concrete ID
  4385412256 (Q-Unit ratification reply)
- `<this-commit>` placeholder in checklist already fixed at 5be1c99f2

Verification: zero `#issuecomment-...` or `<this-commit>` placeholders
in docs/briefs/ + docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md.

* docs(briefs): codex BLOCKING review fixes — Practice 4 source-level + policy scope

Three BLOCKING findings on PR #1782 (codex sha b913e2f4):

1. **Citation-discipline policy scope**: addressed by scoping
   the rule prospectively to briefs landing after the policy
   commit (`b4cae5299`). Pre-existing corpus references are
   flagged as paydown but NOT individually blocking; coordinated
   single-PR sweep is the right paydown shape. Substrate-Mgr scope
   already swept at `127287a66`.

2. **R4 C6 reconciliation**: already fixed at `6e5a5481a` (R4 C6
   narrowed to Aspect-axis follow-on for EpochMs only; 2-axis
   carrier landing IS in R3). Codex sha b913e2f4 was pre-fix.

3. **Practice 4 source-level vs PR-body conflation**: corrected.
   Acceptance bullet for Unit/Quantity worker brief now requires
   inline checkpoint comments on the LIVE declarations in
   `dsl/std/units.dag` (load-bearing artifact per
   `docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution` "What to
   check"). PR-body summary is supplementary, not substitute.

Closes the review's reconciliation gates.

* docs(briefs): absorb Q-MachineConstraint + Q-Unit-1-Recanvas ratifications

Two major Director ratifications absorbed:

1. Q-MachineConstraint-Carrier RATIFIED at gunbc#828
   #issuecomment-4385530115 (Brian directive 2026-05-06: "universal
   substrate, ratify defaults"; PR #1817 queued). 6 sub-decisions:
   - MachineWidth<bits> only for R3; defer RegisterClass / EndianMode
     / Alignment / signedness post-R3
   - Parametric Compose<Algebra, MachineConstraint> type-level
     interaction shape (lookup-maps REJECTED — AlgebraMachineProduct
     record-keyed table form retracted)
   - Int<64> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<64>> (algebra-side
     options A and B preserve interaction semantics)
   - Real<64> ≡ Compose<ApproximateField<Rational>, MachineWidth<64>>
     (algebra approx + machine approx as independent composing axes)
   - ≥3 pairs is minimum, not target
   - UNIVERSAL substrate: every target carries machine-constraint
     facts; targets without native machine-width semantics handle
     omission at Grounding-level discharge (target-conditioned
     lowering NOT target-conditioned substrate)

   Reframed: S3 brief Phase-1, S3 Phase-3/4 emission entries,
   S8 Phase-1/2/3 (ApproximateField<Real> → ApproximateField<Rational>;
   AlgebraMachineProduct → Compose<...>), S9 emission entries.

2. Q-Unit-1-Recanvas RATIFIED Measure<Q, S> at gunbc#828
   #issuecomment-4385539791. valiant-ibex-312's substrate-state
   grep caught Unit<Q, S> collision with kernel Unit at
   dsl/std/types.dag:176; Director ratified Measure<Q, S> as
   outer carrier name (conventional in scientific computing;
   no dsl/std/ collision).

   Reframed: Unit/Quantity worker brief throughout (Unit<Q,S> →
   Measure<Q,S>; dsl/std/units.dag → dsl/std/measure.dag); canvas
   spec sections + sketch products (Refined<Measure<Time, ...>...>);
   R4 carve-out C6 with informal/formal name disambiguation note.

Both rename + reshape are now consistent across S3 / S8 / S9 /
Unit-Q briefs + canvas + R4 routing. Workers (valiant-ant-72 on S3,
quiet-boar-160 on S8, proud-lynx-311 on S9, valiant-ibex-312 on
Unit-Q) all dispatch against the ratified shape.

* docs(briefs): S11 Slice C worker brief — ROADMAP :425 retirement post-#1801

Cascade-clearance trigger fired post-#1801 (Slice B) merge
2026-05-06. S11 brief authored per B1 RATIFIED prose+regen
bundling discipline.

Phase 1: per-file edits across the post-A+B residual list (~10
files per smart-ram-167's Slice B post-rebase enumeration);
anchor + rule-text-quote pattern per current citation discipline;
bootstrap regen in same PR (no split).

Phase 2: ROADMAP :425 row PARTIAL → Retired with 3-slice receipt;
Q-Slice-C-Retirement-Receipt resolution.

Worker pin smart-ram-167 (#1759) — Slice B precedent owner.
Dispatch packet sent separately to #1759.

* docs(briefs): Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) RATIFIED — defer literal Refined form

Director ratified option (c) at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... 2026-05-06:
drop `non_negative` predicate at Measure (phantom) layer; rely on
`Quantity = Time` tagging for non-negative-magnitude semantics.

Q-Unit-4 outer-Refined / inner-Measure composition is preserved as
**conceptual model**; the literal `Refined<Measure<...>, predicate>`
form is **deferred to value-typed-integration follow-up** when
substrate gains Refined<> as first-class type expression and
dimensional refinements get value-typed integration.

Updates:
- Canvas RATIFICATION banner Q-Unit-4 row reframed to "conceptual
  model; literal form deferred"
- Canvas Phase-3 reframe table: Duration / Milliseconds drop the
  Refined<...> wrapper; rely on Quantity tag
- Worker brief Phase-2 prose + reframe table + Acceptance bullet
  all reflect deferred-literal-form posture

valiant-ibex-312 unblocked to proceed with Phase-2 (Grounding
handoff doc) per the (c)-shaped Acceptance.

* docs(briefs): S12 F2 + F8 doc-sharpening worker brief — post-#1820 cascade

#1820 (Slice C) merged 2026-05-06; ROADMAP :425 row Retired closes
the prose-reference paydown program. S12 cascade-clearance trigger
fires per B6 RATIFIED single bundled Mgr-tier doc-sharpening PR.

Scope: F2 (.v3 filename-suffix grammar dispatch) + F8 (bootstrap
load-order/exclusion authority) — single bundled PR per B6.
Cross-program coordination with PB Mgr (#1742) per design schedule
§3 P5 (comment-only OR co-author; no duplicate PR).

Worker pin smart-ram-167 (#1759) — Slice C precedent owner;
pattern-familiar with prose+regen bundling discipline. Dispatch
packet sent separately to #1759.

* docs(briefs): S9 brief — UInt landed via #1818; algebra label corrected to CommutativeSemiring

Per proud-lynx-311 merge report at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-...
2026-05-06: PR #1818 landed `type UInt = Nat` after codex BLOCKING
review on initial `CommutativeMonoid<Nat>` form (P2 facts-flow-forward
violation — wrap projects out Nat's multiplicative monoid + identity 1).

Final landed form preserves full `CommutativeSemiring<Magnitude>`
surface — Nat IS a commutative semiring (addition + multiplication
+ 0 + 1). Algebra-side label for UInt is CommutativeSemiring, NOT
CommutativeMonoid (corrects my earlier dispatch labeling).

S9 Phase-1 step 2 marked LANDED with merge ref. Phase-1 step 3
emission entries reframed:
- Int<N> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<N>>
- UInt<N> ≡ Compose<CommutativeSemiring, MachineWidth<N>>

Worker discipline + reviewer caught a substrate-state error in my
brief framing; brief now matches landed reality.

* docs(briefs): fix contradictory (c) guidance in Unit/Quantity worker brief

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1825 sha 1bce0418 caught a real
contradiction: brief Phase-2 prose at lines 115-118 stated
"predicates do NOT attach at the Measure (phantom) layer" per
Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) RATIFIED, but immediately
following paragraph at lines 130-132 still said "Refined predicate
non_negative applies at the Measure-typed level" — left over from
the original Q-Unit-4 framing.

Updated lines 130-137 to consistently apply (c) shape: predicates
deferred to value-typed-integration follow-up; dimensional semantics
ride on Quantity tag at Measure layer; worker authors 3 in-scope
refinements WITHOUT predicate at this layer.

P2 boundary discipline restored: brief now gives single-authority
guidance for Phase-2 substrate landing.

* docs(briefs): name predicate authority + concretize ratification ID — codex BLOCKING

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1825 sha 32541a56:

1. (BLOCKING) Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) ratification deferred
   phantom-carrier predicates without naming the value-level predicate
   authority. Updated canvas Q-Unit-4 RATIFICATION row to explicitly
   name: 'predicates re-attach at value-typed Int/UInt level via
   where-sugar (e.g., range(min: 0) per current dsl/std/types.dag
   precedent)' when value-typed integration lands.

2. (BLOCKING) Worker brief option-c reframe didn't sweep the audit
   receipt §5 (Carrier dissolves the bridge). Updated to consistently
   apply (c) shape — dimensional semantics ride on Quantity tag at
   Measure layer; value-level predicate authority deferred; until
   then, range/gt_zero constraints attach at value-typed Int/UInt
   via where-sugar per dsl/std/types.dag convention.

3. (NON-BLOCKING) Canvas had #issuecomment-... placeholder for the
   (c) ratification message ID. Replaced with concrete
   #issuecomment-4385687075 per dashboard relay header.

Brief now names a single value-level authority (Int/UInt where-sugar)
for value-range facts; phantom-layer Quantity tag carries only
dimensional semantics. P2 boundary discipline maintained.

* docs(briefs): S12 RETIRED per Director option (2) ratification

Director ratified option (2) at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385873...
2026-05-06 post smart-ram-167's substrate-state STOP-AND-ESCALATE:

- F2 absorbed by 2026-05-04 routing + #1662 closure
  (`Result/DivError span.file-keyed` retired)
- F8 topical concerns distributed across live rows
  (Class 5 Gap 3 `bootstrap.rs::std_fixtures()`; Character-level
  load-set / bootstrap; Filename-sentinel-bridges) with own owners
- Doc-discipline goals absorbed by per-Mgr citation paydown
  routing at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385583247

Frontmatter updated to RETIRED with absorption receipt. Worker
(smart-ram-167) pin freed.

Director-side acknowledgment of Substrate Mgr's option (2) recommendation:
"Substrate Mgr's option (2) recommendation is the right move
structurally. Most Mgrs default to 'synthesize work to fill the brief'
when canvas-vs-HEAD mismatch surfaces. Recommending retirement when
the work is genuinely absorbed is harder discipline."

* docs(briefs): S7 PR-F (BoundDeclaration consumer + ReferenceModel<T>) worker brief

Per cascade-clearance trigger fired post-#1782 merge 2026-05-06.
loyal-wolf-828 (#1764) acknowledged S7 dispatch with substrate-state
pre-flight grep (gunbc#1764 #issuecomment-4385872...) and surfaced
await-brief posture. This brief satisfies that prerequisite.

Worker pre-flight inventory absorbed:
- BoundDeclaration substrate landed (substrate.dag StaticBound +
  PlatformDependent); partial BoundDeclarationView consumer in
  fold.rs (ScratchIntExamples scope; doc-explicit partial)
- ReferenceModel<T> NOT yet in dsl/std/ (substrate-fact-introduction
  required; design-emission-model.md §Q2 framing)

Phase-1: BoundDeclaration consumer broadening to full
design-emission-model.md surface (u128 / isize / usize / walker
arms / pilot mirror).

Phase-2: ReferenceModel<T> P1 substrate-fact-introduction with
DFS-of-concept-DAG + Practice 4 in-source checkpoint comment +
named consumer demand (Grounding G1).

Phase-3: cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for
G1 (T-Ground-Rust Phase 1).

Closure predicate: unblocks Grounding T-Ground-Rust Phase 1.
Worker pin loyal-wolf-828 holds; dispatch fires immediately
on this brief landing.

* docs(briefs): S9 Slice 2.5 — predicate-registry + PB-1 shim retirement (Path 3 RATIFIED)

Director ratified Path 3 at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4390333451
post proud-lynx-311's pre-flight DFS at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-4390253616.

Brief reframes Slice 2.5 from S-sized (primitive + 1 consumer) to
L-sized (predicate registry + PB-1 shim retirement). 5 deliverables:
1. gt_zero primitive predicate
2. Predicate registry infrastructure (resolver-side substrate-fact-introduction)
3. PB-1 shim retirement (span.file=='dsl/std/types.dag' special case dissolves)
4. Migration of existing types.dag predicates (range, pattern, etc.)
5. PositiveInt = Refined<Nat, gt_zero> consumer update

Per Director hard scope bars: no parallel predicate-resolution path;
no per-call-site special-casing; PB-1 shim retirement non-negotiable
in same slice. Single PR per Path 3 RATIFIED.

Discipline anchors: feedback_construction_over_ratchets (PB-1 shim
is bridge); feedback_dissolve_bridges (registry is structural fix);
feedback_no_textual_enforcement_bridges (file-path special-case is
anti-pattern shape); P1 substrate-fact-introduction procedure.

Worker pin proud-lynx-311 — Director pre-cleared on pre-flight DFS
context. PR #1840 (partial Slice 2 — NonNegativeInt = Nat) MERGED
at 16:54Z; Slice 2.5 dispatchable immediately on this brief landing.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 audit receipt — Mgr independent grep parallel-verifies worker DFS

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1845 sha 2d230949 flagged: external PR
receipt absorbed as live substrate state without re-grepping local
std declarations at brief authoring time. Authority receipt §1
cited proud-lynx-311's pre-flight DFS as authority but didn't
record Mgr-side independent verification.

Updated audit receipt §1 + §4 to record Mgr's independent grep at
HEAD as parallel verification:
- gt_zero zero matches in dsl/std/ + src/v3/ (verified)
- NonNegativeInt = Nat at dsl/std/integer.dag:133 (#1840 land)
- PositiveInt = Int where range(min: 1) at dsl/std/types.dag:255
- PB-1 shim doc-block confirms bridge-text framing
- Predicate registry confirmed not present

Worker DFS remains the dispatch-time discipline (substrate-state
grep at dispatch); Mgr's independent grep is parallel verification,
not substitute. Per Director's pattern note at gunbc#828
#issuecomment-4390199218 + #issuecomment-4390333451: dispatch-packet
authoring discipline includes Mgr-side substrate-state-grep, not
just relay of worker findings.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Int extensibility scope-bound; lower.rs cites anchored

openai-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1845 sha 2d230949 flagged 2 issues:

BLOCKING — P1 modeling faithfulness / substrate scope leak:
`gt_zero` Int-side extensibility was left to 'worker judgment if
generalization cheap'. Per feedback_construction_over_ratchets:
don't speculatively extend predicate-carrier compatibility ahead
of named consumer demand. Reframed to **EXPLICITLY OUT-OF-SCOPE**
for Slice 2.5; Nat-only registration. Future Int-side consumer
surfaces as separate substrate-fact-introduction (P1 procedure)
brief with own consumer-demand receipt.

NON-BLOCKING — citation discipline self-violation:
3 instances of bare `lower.rs:821-835` line-range citations
contradict the brief's own 'no bare :NNN' requirement at line 211.
Converted to function-name anchored form:
`src/v3/compiler/src/lower.rs` (`lower_type_alias_refinements_phase` doc-block).

Both findings absorbed; no parallel scope ambiguity remains;
brief now self-consistent on citation discipline.

* WIP: R3 Substrate

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — audit-receipt cites converted to declaration-name anchors

cursor APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS on PR #1845 sha ebf6ac12 noted citation
self-inconsistency: audit-receipt section §1 + §4 used bare
`dsl/std/integer.dag:133` and `dsl/std/types.dag:255` line-number
pins despite the brief's own no-bare-:NNN rule.

Converted to declaration-name-anchored form:
- 'declaration named NonNegativeInt' (with reproducible grep command)
- 'declaration named PositiveInt' (with reproducible grep command)
- 'lower_type_alias_refinements_phase doc-block' for PB-1 location

Brief now fully self-consistent on its own citation discipline.
Verified zero remaining .dag:NNN / .rs:NNN / .md:NNN bare cites.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Path (a) RATIFIED carrier+argument contract verification

Director Path (a) RATIFIED at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4390760353
(triage) + #issuecomment-4390794121 (convergence ack):
predicate-body lowering with carrier+argument contract
verification at lower-time IN SAME SLICE. Placeholder semantics
REMOVED from registry path.

Codex REQUEST_CHANGES surfaced that registered-predicate-without-
contract = silent acceptance per feedback_fail_closed_discipline.
Brief reframe absorbs Path (a):

Hard scope bar #5 added:
- Same-slice carrier+argument-contract verification
- Mismatched carrier OR malformed argument → Diagnostic::ResolveError
- No 'named but not checked' path remains

Scope expansion section added (L → XL):
- Predicate-body lowering for all 7 registered predicates
- Per-predicate arg-shape validation
- Multi-session work acknowledged
- Carrier-check at 788d6acb4 retained; predicate-body builds on top

Acceptance bullets updated: gt_zero with arg-shape validation +
all 7 predicates with carrier+argument contract verification.

Director-pinned brief-authoring discipline: dissolution trigger
named in a brief authored as substrate-fact-introduction must
specify same-slice acceptance, not deferred follow-up. Otherwise
the brief encodes 'land bridge + defer dissolution' anti-pattern,
the same shape feedback_construction_over_ratchets warns against
at implementation layer applied at brief authoring layer.

This is the 11th miss this session — but the pattern surfacing it
(direct sweep + Codex REQUEST_CHANGES + Director ratification)
produces structural fixes that prevent the next miss class. Brief

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Path 2 RATIFIED (Gap 1 discharge + Q-Regex carve-out)

Director Path 2 RATIFIED at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4391985613
post Rung 3 STOP at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-4391946213.

Path 2 narrowing of Path (a):
- gt_zero + range body synthesis already landed (5f3c40c3a)
- Gap 1 discharge mechanism: extends scalar-literal predicate
  evaluation at lower-time. L-class; lands SAME SLICE per
  same-slice-dissolution discipline
- non_empty + brand body synthesis: lands via Gap 1 discharge
- pattern / format / content: fail-closed-with-named-dep at
  user-code authoring layer (Diagnostic::ResolveError naming
  Q-Regex-Primitive). NOT placeholder; structural rejection
- PB-1 shim FULLY RETIRED per hard scope bar #3
- Q-Regex-Primitive carved as follow-on substrate-fact-introduction
  (XL substrate; not pre-authored per feedback_construction_over_ratchets)

Acceptance updated:
- 4 of 7 body-synthesized in same slice
- 3 of 7 fail-closed-with-named-dep (no placeholder semantics)
- Gap 1 discharge mechanism landed (no partial implementation)

Worker disposition: proud-lynx-311 continues Rung 3 with Gap 1
implementation + non_empty/brand body synthesis + pattern/format/
content fail-closed-with-named-dep diagnostic.

* docs(briefs): S9 Phase-1 Step 3 emission entries — Tier-1 brief authoring (1/5)

First Tier-1 brief landing post Director auto-nudge on assignment
#1858. Authored against Q-MachineConstraint sub-decisions ratified
shape now landed at #1856:

- Int<N> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<N>> → Rust i32/i64/i128
- UInt<N> ≡ Compose<CommutativeSemiring, MachineWidth<N>> → Rust u32/u64/u128
- 6 concrete instantiations (≥3 minimum per sub-decision 5)
- Cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for G2 emission consumption
- numeric_construction_demonstration Acceptance bullet (Int<32> round-trip);
  Real<64> half deferred to S9 Phase 2 / S8 Float cascade

Brief authored with substrate-state-grep discipline + same-slice-
dissolution discipline (no deferred trigger; demonstration in same
slice or explicitly carved). 5-question authority audit completed
in brief body.

Worker pin proud-lynx-311 (S9 holds); brief queues post-Slice-2.5
completion as natural follow-on.

Tier-1 brief queue progress:
- 1/5 authored (this brief)
- 4 remaining: S9 Phase-2 Float coordination; T-LBP complexity
  cementing; T-LBP cost cementing; S3 Phase-2 parser-grammar

* docs(briefs): S3 Phase-2 parser-grammar surface — Tier-1 brief 2/5

Authored per Director freed-pool pressure at gunbc#828
#issuecomment-4392095857 + Tier-1 brief-queue commitment.

Brief covers parser-grammar surface for Compose<Algebra, MachineConstraint>
interaction syntax post-#1856 (Phase-1 carrier slice landed):

- Phase 2.1: Parser surface per ratified Q-MachineConstraint-Grammar-Shape
- Phase 2.2: Bootstrap demonstrator with >=3 algebra*machine-axis pairs
- Phase 2.3: Class 1 5-criteria Pass receipt (criteria 1-4; criterion 5
  v2-oracle parity may carve)
- Phase 2.4: numeric_construction_demonstration co-receipt with S9 Phase-1
  Step 3 emission entries brief

Director ratification HOLDS on grammar bikeshed:
- Candidate A: Int @ Width<32> (annotation form)
- Candidate B: Int with MachineWidth<32> (with-form)
- Candidate C: Int<32> (positional generic — fits existing convention)
- Candidate D: Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<32>> (no parser change;
  type aliases provide convenience names)

Worker pin valiant-ant-72 holds (S3 Phase-1 precedent owner); freed-pool
until Director ratifies grammar shape.

Tier-1 brief queue progress: 2/5 authored (this brief + S9 Phase-1 Step 3).
Remaining: S9 Phase-2 Float coordination; T-LBP complexity cementing;
T-LBP cost cementing.

* docs(briefs): S3 Phase-2 brief — fix internal contradiction on Class 1 closure scope

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1889 sha ec609b4a flagged real
contradiction:

- Provenance section claimed '5-criteria Pass closed' (line 229)
- Phase 2.3 said 'criterion 5 may queue separately' (line 154)
- STOP-AND-ESCALATE bullet 1 ratified 4-of-5 carve-out (line 181)

Updated Provenance to consistently state criteria 1-4 close in this
slice; criterion 5 (v2-oracle parity) cementing test may carve to
separate slice. Single 4-of-5 framing throughout. INVARIANTS.md
'Documentation Describes Live State' satisfied.

Per feedback_construction_over_ratchets: don't claim closure that
isn't structurally complete. 4-of-5 + named carve is the honest
shape; 5/5 only on cementing-test land.

Director ratified Option A revised at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392329709
(2026-05-06). Final brief shape:
- 4 predicates body-synthesize via Gap 1 (gt_zero / range / non_empty
  / brand)
- pattern / format / content STRUCTURALLY ABSENT from registry (not
  pending-with-placeholder); user-code where-clause produces
  Diagnostic::ResolveError naming Q-Regex-Primitive as separate
  substrate-fact-introduction follow-on
- ~12 types.dag refined-type declarations migrate to drop
  pattern/format/content where-clauses with inline-comment receipts
  pointing to Q-Regex restoration path; 1 extdep (sts_endpoint)
  adapts as needed
- PB-1 shim FULLY RETIRED — no exception, no preserved branch
- Q-Regex-Primitive as separate brief / worker pin / Director
  ratification cycle when concretely needed (Option B XXL bundling
  REJECTED)

Phase ordering rewritten to absorb migration as explicit phase
between predicate enrollment and shim retirement. proud-lynx-311

Tier-1 brief queue completes (4/5 + 5/5):

4/5 — T-LBP complexity-lens cementing test (§1.8 rows #79 + #87
first entry). Consumer-side cementing test against frozen v2-oracle
snapshot; producer-side Lens<Complexity> instance is upstream
precondition. Per Q-Lens-Behavioral-Parity-R3-Closeability option
(b) RATIFIED at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385329180 — T-LBP narrowed

Substrate Mgr canvas authored post-codex BLOCKING + PM disposition
handoff at gunbc#846 #issuecomment-4392510255.

Two real substrate-shape questions stacked:

Q1 (category mismatch): Lens<C>.read is per-Behavior; emission
provenance is per-emitted-line. 4 options surfaced — (a) per-Behavior
Lens-compatible / (b) per-line instrumentation NOT a lens / (c)
withdraw + re-canvas / (d) Mgr-surface both substrates distinct.
Mgr recommends (d) if visualization is load-bearing; (a) suffices
if per-Behavior aggregate works for the slide. Brian-channel
sub-question surfaced.

Q2 (fold-rule enumerability): T-Rule-Enumeration substrate-fact-
introduction is prerequisite for every Q1 path (rust_target.rs uses
inline &str template names; rules not enumerable). Mgr recommends
parallel-dispatch with Q1 deliberation — satisfies Brian's ASAP
framing while shape ratifies.

Q3 (§1.8 ledger retarget): #89 already taken by T-LAS; new cluster
location follows Q1 disposition.

Director ratification ask + Brian-channel sub-question surfaced.

* WIP: R3 Substrate

* briefs: address codex BLOCKING bundle (sha 2ed1046e) — record-form provenance + emit_model carrier alignment + T-Rule-Enumeration retirement flag

Three findings addressed:

1. Lens brief (Finding #1 — provenance shape conflates source vs rule
   attribution): replaced typed-sum EmissionOrigin with record
   EmissionProvenance { rule: EmissionRule [mandatory], source_span:
   Option<SourceSpan> [optional] }. Co-inhabitance is real (e.g.,
   #[derive(Debug)] line has both rule=derive_for_disj AND span
   attribution to Foo decl). Rule-mandatory enforces fail-closed
   structurally; Practice 4 N/A (record, not coproduct).

2. T-Rule-Enumeration brief (Finding #2 — rule authority lives in
   spec/rust.dag + v3.std.emit_model, not call-site strings): brief
   status flipped to FLAGGED FOR RETIREMENT. Same finding as
   smart-ram-167 STOP at gunbc#1759 #issuecomment-4392696623; Reading
   C surfaced to Director at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4392780871.

3. Rust-primitive-full-coverage brief (Finding #3 — BoundDeclaration
   not wired into TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound row surface):
   reframed Deliverable 2 to target the actual carrier
   `v3.std.emit_model::TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound` (used by
   `TargetIntegerTypeInhabitance` rows in src/v3/spec/rust.dag lines
   169-207). Two paths surfaced: Option (i) wire BoundDeclaration into
   TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound; Option (ii) populate via existing
   variants if PlatformDependent already exists on the live carrier.
   Worker DFS at dispatch picks. Deliverable 3 retargeted to
   TargetIntegerTypeInhabitance rows (the actual surface).

HEAD: TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound = BoundUnspecified | StaticBoundFact(IntInterval).
No PlatformDependent variant. Earlier brief framing of Option (ii)
(populate via existing variants) was infeasible.

Brief reframed: carrier refactor is required (not optional). Two
structural shapes for the refactor — (i.a) embed BoundDeclaration
(Mgr recommendation; single-authority discipline) vs (i.b) extend
variant set with PlatformDependent. Existing 5 rows migrate either
way; bootstrap snapshot semantic-equivalence non-negotiable.

* emission-provenance lens brief: absorb codex BLOCKING bundle (sha 4229cd09 post-merge findings)

Two findings from codex bundled review on now-merged PR #1910 sha
4229cd09 land as brief revisions for the in-flight smart-ram-167
authoring cycle (PR #1928):

1. Field-path identity threading: render_named_template call sites
   receive template values extracted from binding structs; field-path
   may not be carried alongside the value at emission time. New STOP
   trigger flags this as substrate-cascade if threading isn't
   structurally possible (typed template-with-rule-path or
   DeclarationRef carrier needed).

2. Read domain coverage gap: Lens<C>.read is per-Behavior; emitted
   output also includes declarations + program scaffold. Acceptance
   scope explicitly narrowed to Behavior-attributable lines only;
   declarations + scaffold provenance out-of-scope (separate substrate
   cascade if surfaced). Acceptance bullet retargeted to
   "Behavior-attributable span-Some + Behavior-attributable span-None"
   rather than full-emission coverage.

#issuecomment-4393074602 surfaced that origin/main HEAD has
TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound with 3 variants including
PlatformDependentFact (mirrors BoundDeclaration::PlatformDependent).
Earlier brief framing at 4229cd09d was against pre-PlatformDependentFact

Option (ii) IS feasible: isize/usize rows populate via existing
PlatformDependentFact variant directly; u128 row populates StaticBoundFact
with BigInt-widened ExactInterval (Deliverable 1 unchanged). No
carrier refactor needed; 5 existing rows untouched.

Second Mgr-tier ratification-state-grep miss today (first was symbol-only
grep on T-Rule-Enumeration; now stale-codex-vs-current-HEAD on
TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound). Worker-tier discipline caught it before
sinking time into invasive Option (i.a) refactor.

Single-authority concern (parallel-named variants on
TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound vs BoundDeclaration) noted as future
substrate-fact-introduction; not blocking this slice — explicit-mirror
is the existing convention.

* rust-primitive-full-coverage: align Acceptance + Phase ordering + STOP triggers to Option (ii) (resolve codex internal-contradiction finding)

codex BLOCKING on PR #1929 sha 14f68b63 caught real internal contradiction: Context section flipped to Option (ii) feasible at 57ae4349b but Acceptance + Phase ordering still referenced BoundDeclaration migration / RustPrimitive bound field refactor from earlier Option (i.a) framing.

All sections now consistent with Option (ii):
- Phase 4 = no-op (TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound carrier untouched)
- Phase 5 = spec/rust.dag rows for isize/usize via existing PlatformDependentFact variant
- Phase 6 = u128 row via StaticBoundFact(IntInterval) + ratchet update
- Acceptance retargeted to row-population shape (no carrier refactor; existing 5 TargetIntegerTypeInhabitance rows untouched)
- STOP triggers retargeted to TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound variant-set sufficiency at HEAD
- Why-bundled rationale rewritten to Option (ii) shape (Phase A widening unblocks u128 StaticBoundFact; isize/usize use existing PlatformDependentFact)

* lens brief: narrow Deliverable 3 verification step 4 to Behavior-attributable lines (resolve codex #2 consistency)

codex BLOCKING #2 on PR #1929 sha 812602b4 caught: Acceptance + STOP triggers narrowed to Behavior-attributable lines but Deliverable 3 cementing-test step 4 still said 'every emitted line'. Now consistent — step 4 explicitly scopes to Behavior-attributable subset; declarations + program scaffold OUT-OF-SCOPE per same Finding #2 framing.

(codex BLOCKING #1 — claim that PlatformDependentFact NOT on main — is wrong; verified at origin/main HEAD: TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound has 3 variants including PlatformDependentFact. Rebut on PR.)

* briefs: pre-author IntPlatform/UIntPlatform substrate-fact-introduction follow-on (Director ratification at #4393248961)

Per Director Q1+Q2+Q3+Q4 RATIFICATION at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4393248961 (2026-05-07): pre-author follow-on brief for the substrate cascade surfaced by valiant-ibex-312 STOP at gunbc#1761 #issuecomment-4393222862.

Scope:
- Q1 naming: IntPlatform / UIntPlatform per feedback_reason_not_label
- Q2 algebra: Compose<Int, MachineWidth<Platform>> + Compose<UInt, MachineWidth<Platform>>; Platform is substrate token
- Q3 substrate-concept layer (target-agnostic per feedback_target_agnostic_ir)
- Q4 worker pin: valiant-ibex-312 post-PR-#1914 close (freshest substrate context)

Brief covers Platform substrate token + IntPlatform/UIntPlatform declarations + spec/rust.dag isize/usize row population + co-receipt advancing PR #1914's rust_primitive_full_coverage gate PARTIAL → CONSUMER_LANDED.

Closure gate: int_platform_uint_platform_substrate_landed.

Dispatchable post-PR-#1914 close per pre-authored-brief-queue discipline.

* fix(briefs): retire INVARIANTS.md line-number cites in r3-426 brief

Per codex review on PR #1782 (sha c2512cde): the new briefs
introduced fresh `INVARIANTS.md:<line>` citations — the same
stale-line-anchor shape the :425 sweep brief itself names as needing
dissolution. Replaces four line-number references in
r3-426-sfp-subdoc-rename-and-author-worker.md (lines 16, 28, 58, 85)
with prose-anchored locators citing the section anchor + bullet text.

The other PB-lane briefs codex flagged (r3-pb-runtime-equivalence-
corpus-seed-audit.md, r3-pb-t-fixedpoint-worker.md) belong to
neat-bear-351's lane and are not in this PR's scope; will route
separately.

* fix(briefs): correct L6 type count + r3-435 dual-path retirement receipt

Per openai-pro review on PR #1782 (sha c2512cde):

1. L6 brief said acceptance ratchet asserts "five types" exist but
   declares six (ShapeATarget, FormAxis, BehaviorAxis,
   MethodTemplateContractKey, EmissionCell, EmissionPathProjection).
   Updated both occurrences to enumerate all six explicitly.

2. r3-435 brief authorized both Path A (typed-AST reader, deletes
   IntegrationRsScan) and Path B (scanner widening with Char state),
   but retirement receipt language only covered Path B. Updated
   ROADMAP/ledger retirement and authority-audit step 5 to cover
   both authorized dissolution paths.

* fix(briefs): L6 second 'five types' site + T-E-P lookup-gate authority

Per cursor review on PR #1782 (sha 2072b986):

1. L6 brief acceptance bullet at :131 still said "five types" while
   the parenthetical and the Slice step at :117 said six. The prior
   fix only caught one of two sites; corrected the second.

2. T-E-P brief `e_p_call_pattern_lookup_authoritative` acceptance
   named only `lower_call_pattern` as "the only route from call
   site to LoweringTarget" — but Phase 2 explicitly requires
   lenses route through `per_call_pattern_at` (the L-7 single-
   authority lookup), NOT `lower_call_pattern` (compiler-internal).
   Acceptance text rewritten to name `per_call_pattern_at` as the
   consumer-facing gate and clarify `lower_call_pattern`'s
   internal-only scope.

* fix(briefs): strengthen L6 ratchet from count-parity to per-row bijection

Per openai-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1782 (sha 2072b986): the L6
acceptance ratchet asserted only row-count parity between
emission_path_projections and the union of MethodTemplateContract
rows. Count parity permits duplicate projection keys and missing
source rows — the bridge from list-non-empty proxy to per-row
projection would not be mechanically proven. The whole point of
introducing MethodTemplateContractKey { target, dag_method } is to
provide 1:1 row identity.

Rewrites the ratchet to assert per-row bijection: every
MethodTemplateContract source row has exactly one matching
EmissionPathProjection row by key; every projection key resolves
to exactly one source row; duplicate projection keys fail closed.

(The other openai-pro BLOCKING finding — T-E-P
e_p_call_pattern_lookup_authoritative naming the wrong authority
— was already fixed at 6282a0704; the review citation was against
the pre-fix sha 2072b986.)

* fix(briefs): split L6 ratchet into slice-active vs deferred-activation gates

Per BLOCKING inline review on PR #1782 at d92459423: the prior
bijection ratchet was unsatisfiable as authored. The
*_method_template_contracts lists at HEAD (rust/python/go) are
non-empty; shipping emission_path_projections: [] alongside a
strict bijection requirement means the bijection cannot pass when
the slice lands — source rows would be uncovered. Prior text
incorrectly said "vacuously true on the empty source set" — the
SOURCE set isn't empty, only the projection set is.

Splits the ratchet into two gate categories:
- Slice-active gates: types/data shape exist + empty-state
  predicate (emission_path_projections == []).
- Deferred-activation gate: per-row key bijection, authored as a
  test scaffold by this slice but #[ignore]'d (or feature-gated
  on len > 0) until Grounding's follow-up populates rows. On
  activation, asserts the bijection over the populated set.

This honors P1 doc faithfulness: the slice's acceptance contract
is satisfiable as authored, and the bijection becomes the
load-bearing gate the row-population PR satisfies.

* fix(briefs): require L6 bootstrap enrollment to honor P2 facts-flow-forward

Per BLOCKING inline review on PR #1782 at L6:34: the slice authored
src/v3/std/cross_target_coverage.dag but never required enrolling
it in the bootstrap/load authority. Without enrollment the file
is dead-letter on disk and EmissionPathProjection can be absent
from the downstream Dag — silent P2 facts-flow-forward violation.

Adds a new Slice step 2 requiring a cross_target_coverage field
on BootstrapFixtures in src/v3/std/extdeps_bootstrap_fixtures.dag
mirroring the *_method_template_contracts enrollment pattern, plus
a loader-visibility ratchet. Renumbers subsequent Slice steps.
Adds matching Acceptance bullet.

* docs(briefs): normalize Practice 4 citation in S3 brief per codex review

Codex review on PR #1782 (sha 2614217e) flagged stale citation
"Practice 4 (Step 4 of the type-introduction checklist)" in
S3 brief — no such checklist step exists in the pinned rubric.

Live rule per docs/modeling-discipline.md:131-134 is the "What to
check" checkpoint-comment requirement under Practice 4 (coproduct
dissolution). Updated the S3 reference to cite that line directly
and drop the stale "Step 4 of type-introduction checklist" wording.

S2/S8/S9 already use bare "Practice 4" without the stale steps wording.
S1 (committed earlier today) does not contain the stale phrase.
S6 (pre-existing brief flagged by reviewer as carrying the same
pattern) is out of this branch's scope; flag for separate paydown.

* docs(briefs): sweep stale Practice 4 citations corpus-wide

Codex review on PR #1782 flagged the stale "Step 4 of the
type-introduction checklist" wording — no such checklist exists in
docs/modeling-discipline.md. The live rule is the "What to check"
checkpoint-comment requirement under Practice 4 (coproduct
dissolution) at docs/modeling-discipline.md:131.

Sweep across docs/ found 2 additional briefs carrying the stale
phrasing (S3 fixed previously at 9db003d40):

- docs/briefs/r3-l6-emission-path-projection-substrate-worker.md
- docs/briefs/r3-x1b-s1-transform-dispatch-substrate-worker.md

Both updated to cite the live rule directly. Verified zero
remaining "type-introduction checklist" or "Step 4 of the"
references in docs/ tree.

* docs(briefs): add Practice 4 citation discipline note to authoring checklist

Per parent inbox status flag at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385346221:
add a Citation discipline section to brief-authoring-checklist.md
naming the correct shape — Practice 4 (coproduct dissolution) +
"What to check" rule at docs/modeling-discipline.md:131 — and
calling out the stale "Step 4 of the type-introduction checklist"
phrasing as a failure mode. References the corpus sweep at
2dc92f34f.

Prevents future briefs that copy old templates from re-introducing
the stale citation pattern.

* docs(r3): cascade work post-Director ratification — S1 worker, R4 routing, Unit/Quantity canvas

Per Director ratification at gunbc#828 inbox response 2026-05-06
(zesty-bear-812):

1. S1 Q1+Q2 RATIFIED → author S1 gap-test representative worker brief
   (`r3-substrate-s1-gap-test-representative-worker.md`). Dispatchable
   on T-E-P Phase 1 + E6-G0d landing; closes ledger row #61.

2. S2 Q2 RATIFIED (option-(b) T-LBP narrowing) + S3 + S8 deferrals →
   R4 carve-out routing ledger (`docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md`).
   Captures C1 (parallelism lens), C2 (effect_enum lens), C3
   (register narrowing), C4 (deferred MachineConstraint axes),
   C5 (rounding-mode product extension), C6 (Unit/Quantity).
   Cascade messages to Verification / Grounding / Debt-Paydown Mgrs.

3. S9 Phase-3 dimensional refinement boundary → Unit/Quantity carrier
   canvas (`r3-substrate-s9-unit-quantity-carrier-canvas.md`).
   Surfaces Q-Unit-1..5 for Director ratification: carrier name,
   2-axis vs 3-axis Phase-1, Duration/Seconds collapse, Refined
   composition order, Practice 4 classification.

Updates §1.8 ledger receipts for carved items; R3 closure receipts
treat carved items as explicitly-deferred (not drift).

* docs(briefs): citation-discipline fix-forward — anchors/quotes, not line numbers

Director redirect at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... noted the citation
paydown's replacement form (`docs/modeling-discipline.md:131`) is the
same drift class as the original fabricated-step error. Bare line
numbers shift silently on any doc edit above the cited line.

Generalized fix:
- brief-authoring-checklist.md "Citation discipline" section
  rewritten to prohibit bare line-numbers across ALL cross-doc
  references (modeling-discipline.md, r3-program-plan.md,
  r3-structure.md, INVARIANTS.md, MODELING.md, etc.). Use section
  anchors (#section-name) or rule-text quotes.
- 3 briefs that swapped in :131 (S3, S6, X1B) re-converted:
  - docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution anchor
  - "What to check" rule quoted inline (self-contained)

Brief-authoring-checklist failure-mode section names both vectors
(fabricated step + bare line numbers) and references both sweep
commits in audit trail.

Broader cross-doc citation sweep across briefs I authored on this
branch (frontmatter authority-docs lists, body prose) is recommended
per Director note — flagging as separate paydown task; this commit
closes the immediate recurrence vector.

* docs(briefs): fix unfaithful Int=AbelianGroup<Nat> + sweep stale 'Step 4' refs

Per openai-pro review on PR #1782 sha 0ecd4818 (gunbc#1782 #...):

BLOCKING fix (P1 modeling faithfulness):
- S9 + S3 directed workers to model `Int = AbelianGroup<Nat>`,
  but Nat is not an Abelian-group carrier (additive inverses
  not representable). Reframed:
  - `Int` is the additive Abelian group on integers (carrier Z);
    `Nat` is a commutative monoid under addition.
  - Algebraic relationship is **explicit group-completion**:
    `Int ≡ GroupCompletion<CommutativeMonoid<Nat>>` — NOT
    `AbelianGroup<Nat>` parameterization.
  - Worker either models `Int` directly as `AbelianGroup`
    (terminal Abelian-group instance) OR introduces explicit
    `GroupCompletion<M>` substrate carrier; decision lands in
    Phase-1 PR per P1 procedure.
- S3 cross-reference + Phase-4 algebra-axis preservation note
  reframed accordingly.

NON-BLOCKING in-PR cleanup (Practice 4 citation discipline):
- 6 briefs still carrying stale 'Practice 4 Step 4' wording
  (r3-coproduct-1/2/3, r3-l6, r3-t-e-p, r3-x1b) updated to use
  the section anchor (`docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution`)
  + inline rule-text quote ("What to check") form per the
  citation discipline established in `b4cae5299`.

Closes both findings from openai-pro review.

* docs(briefs): Q-Unit-1..5 RATIFIED — apply Scale.Unit→One rename + ratification banner

Director ratified Q-Unit-1..5 at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... 2026-05-06
(zesty-bear-812). All 5 questions ratified; one rename required:

- Scale enum's `Unit` value collides with outer `Unit<Q, S>` carrier
  name (`Unit<Time, Unit>` is shadowing-confusing). Rename to `One`.
- Duration ≡ Unit<Time, One> (collapses with Seconds per Q-Unit-3).
- Milliseconds ≡ Unit<Time, Milli>.

Canvas updated:
- Top-level RATIFICATION banner records all 5 ratifications + rename
- Scale enum: `Unit` → `One` (with inline rename receipt)
- Sketch product expansions use `Unit<Time, One>` / `Unit<Time, Milli>`
- Phase-3 reframe table products updated
- Q-Unit-3 prose collapse reference updated

Subsequent worker brief authoring (Unit/Quantity carrier landing
post-prerequisite) inherits the renamed shape.

* docs(briefs): Unit/Quantity carrier worker brief — Q-Unit-1..5 RATIFIED

Worker brief consumes the ratified Unit/Quantity canvas
(`5f22fd06e` ratification banner). Phase-1 lands `Unit<Q, S>` +
`Quantity` + `Scale` declarations at the ratified shape (Scale's
`One` value per Q-Unit-1 rename). Phase-2 reframes S9 Phase-3
dimensional refinements (Duration / Seconds / Milliseconds) to
outer-Refined / inner-Unit composition per Q-Unit-4 RATIFIED.
EpochMs deferred to R4 C6 (Aspect-axis follow-up).

Practice 4 marks pre-determined per Q-Unit-5: `Unit<Q, S>` 🟢
PRIMITIVE; `Quantity` + `Scale` 🟡 SCAFFOLD with "consumed by ≥1
emission rule" dissolution trigger.

Cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for dimensional
emission consumption documented.

Worker pin TBD — dispatchable when idle pool refreshes.

* docs(briefs): S9 Phase-1 reframed — Int landed at #1466; UInt-only migration

Per proud-lynx-311 dispatch ack at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-...
2026-05-06: re-grep at HEAD revealed substrate state diverges
materially from S9 brief's "Option A vs B decide" framing.

Reality check at HEAD:
- `dsl/std/integer.dag:55` already carries
  `type Int = AbelianGroup<GroupCompletion<Nat>>` per Slice 3 PR
  #1466 / commit `4ba0a6d04`. Single-authority Q6 audit doc at
  `docs/audit/t-numeric-construction-group-completion-6q.md`
  ratified this shape and explicitly rejected the compact form.
- `dsl/std/integer.dag:56` still on legacy `type UInt = UInt64`
  alias; UInt migration is the actual Phase-1 worker scope.

Brief Phase-1 step 1 reframed: Int landing acknowledged; worker
confirms HEAD match. Phase-1 step 2 reframed: UInt migration
target named (`type UInt = CommutativeMonoid<Nat>`); fixed-width
rows preserved per existing legacy-rows policy.

Historical Option A vs B framing kept as note (superseded).

Confirmed S9 dispatch ack from worker; UInt-only Phase-1 PR is
in-scope. Emission entries deferred per S3 (valiant-ant-72
pre-landing); Phase-2 deferred per S8 (quiet-boar-160 pre-landing).

* docs(briefs): fix two BLOCKING citation drift items per codex review

Codex review on PR #1782 sha 5f22fd06 flagged two authority-receipt
gaps:

1. brief-authoring-checklist.md:118 — `<this-commit>` placeholder in
   the failure-mode section was unverifiable post-merge. Replaced
   with `b4cae5299` (the actual anchor/quote conversion commit).

2. r3-378-http-path-helper-fail-open-worker.md:84 — `INVARIANTS.md
   C-8 fail-closed` cited without anchor or rule-text quote, in
   violation of the citation discipline added in this PR.
   Converted to `INVARIANTS.md#p3-fail-closed` (P3 heading anchor)
   + inline rule-text quote naming P3 + C-8.

PR's own discipline now consistently applied across the diff.

* docs(briefs): sweep bare .md:NNN citations in Substrate-Mgr-authored briefs

Per Director recommendation in citation-discipline thread (gunbc#828
follow-on): bare line-number references drift silently. Swept 19
remaining instances across 5 briefs I authored on this branch:

- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s1-q-class-2-chain-break-gap-test-canvas.md
- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s1-gap-test-representative-worker.md
- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s2-t-lbp-scope-calibration-canvas.md
- docs/briefs/r3-substrate-s3-machine-constraint-carrier-worker.md

Conversion: bare `file.md:NNN` → `file.md §"Section name"` form.
Stable; survives doc edits; human-readable. Section names per
HEAD heading audit.

Verification: `grep -nE '.md:[0-9]+' docs/briefs/r3-substrate-*.md
docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md` returns zero results in
Substrate-Mgr-authored scope.

Broader corpus scope (~232 references across non-Substrate briefs)
remains as separate paydown task.

* docs(briefs): fix BLOCKING + NON-BLOCKING items per openai-pro review on a462f007

Three findings addressed; 2 BLOCKING + 1 NON-BLOCKING:

BLOCKING — R3/R4 dual authority for Unit/Quantity carrier:
R4 carve-out C6 narrowed from "Unit/Quantity carrier landing"
(deferred all of it) to **"Aspect-axis (PointKind) follow-on
for EpochMs and instant/rate-shaped refinements only"**. The
2-axis Measure<Q,S> carrier landing IS in R3 per Q-Unit-1..5
RATIFIED; only the Aspect axis (PointKind = Magnitude | Instant
| Rate) carves to R4. Cascade-message C6 reference + R4 program-
plan input list updated to match. Cross-Mgr message clarifies
Grounding consumes 2-axis dimensional refinements in R3.

BLOCKING — Locked design partially applied (Scale.Unit→One
rename in canvas alternate-sketch sections):
- Canvas line 105-108 alternate sketch ("Open question: Instant
  vs Duration axis") still used pre-rename `Unit` Scale value;
  added pre-ratification disclaimer marking the section as
  deferred to R4 C6 + noting `Unit` is pre-rename
- Canvas line 163 Q-Unit-3 collapse note: `Scale = Unit` → `Scale = One`

(BLOCKING — bare line-numbers in S1 canvas frontmatter): NOT
APPLICABLE — already fixed at sweep commit 127287a66 prior to
review; reviewer was on sha a462f007 pre-sweep.

NON-BLOCKING — placeholder receipts:
- brief-authoring-checklist.md `#issuecomment-...` → concrete ID
  4385393971 (Director's anchor-discipline reply)
- r3-substrate-unit-quantity-carrier-worker.md (3 occurrences)
  + canvas RATIFICATION banner: `#issuecomment-...` → concrete ID
  4385412256 (Q-Unit ratification reply)
- `<this-commit>` placeholder in checklist already fixed at 5be1c99f2

Verification: zero `#issuecomment-...` or `<this-commit>` placeholders
in docs/briefs/ + docs/r4-carve-out-routing.md.

* docs(briefs): codex BLOCKING review fixes — Practice 4 source-level + policy scope

Three BLOCKING findings on PR #1782 (codex sha b913e2f4):

1. **Citation-discipline policy scope**: addressed by scoping
   the rule prospectively to briefs landing after the policy
   commit (`b4cae5299`). Pre-existing corpus references are
   flagged as paydown but NOT individually blocking; coordinated
   single-PR sweep is the right paydown shape. Substrate-Mgr scope
   already swept at `127287a66`.

2. **R4 C6 reconciliation**: already fixed at `6e5a5481a` (R4 C6
   narrowed to Aspect-axis follow-on for EpochMs only; 2-axis
   carrier landing IS in R3). Codex sha b913e2f4 was pre-fix.

3. **Practice 4 source-level vs PR-body conflation**: corrected.
   Acceptance bullet for Unit/Quantity worker brief now requires
   inline checkpoint comments on the LIVE declarations in
   `dsl/std/units.dag` (load-bearing artifact per
   `docs/modeling-discipline.md#4-coproduct-dissolution` "What to
   check"). PR-body summary is supplementary, not substitute.

Closes the review's reconciliation gates.

* docs(briefs): absorb Q-MachineConstraint + Q-Unit-1-Recanvas ratifications

Two major Director ratifications absorbed:

1. Q-MachineConstraint-Carrier RATIFIED at gunbc#828
   #issuecomment-4385530115 (Brian directive 2026-05-06: "universal
   substrate, ratify defaults"; PR #1817 queued). 6 sub-decisions:
   - MachineWidth<bits> only for R3; defer RegisterClass / EndianMode
     / Alignment / signedness post-R3
   - Parametric Compose<Algebra, MachineConstraint> type-level
     interaction shape (lookup-maps REJECTED — AlgebraMachineProduct
     record-keyed table form retracted)
   - Int<64> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<64>> (algebra-side
     options A and B preserve interaction semantics)
   - Real<64> ≡ Compose<ApproximateField<Rational>, MachineWidth<64>>
     (algebra approx + machine approx as independent composing axes)
   - ≥3 pairs is minimum, not target
   - UNIVERSAL substrate: every target carries machine-constraint
     facts; targets without native machine-width semantics handle
     omission at Grounding-level discharge (target-conditioned
     lowering NOT target-conditioned substrate)

   Reframed: S3 brief Phase-1, S3 Phase-3/4 emission entries,
   S8 Phase-1/2/3 (ApproximateField<Real> → ApproximateField<Rational>;
   AlgebraMachineProduct → Compose<...>), S9 emission entries.

2. Q-Unit-1-Recanvas RATIFIED Measure<Q, S> at gunbc#828
   #issuecomment-4385539791. valiant-ibex-312's substrate-state
   grep caught Unit<Q, S> collision with kernel Unit at
   dsl/std/types.dag:176; Director ratified Measure<Q, S> as
   outer carrier name (conventional in scientific computing;
   no dsl/std/ collision).

   Reframed: Unit/Quantity worker brief throughout (Unit<Q,S> →
   Measure<Q,S>; dsl/std/units.dag → dsl/std/measure.dag); canvas
   spec sections + sketch products (Refined<Measure<Time, ...>...>);
   R4 carve-out C6 with informal/formal name disambiguation note.

Both rename + reshape are now consistent across S3 / S8 / S9 /
Unit-Q briefs + canvas + R4 routing. Workers (valiant-ant-72 on S3,
quiet-boar-160 on S8, proud-lynx-311 on S9, valiant-ibex-312 on
Unit-Q) all dispatch against the ratified shape.

* docs(briefs): S11 Slice C worker brief — ROADMAP :425 retirement post-#1801

Cascade-clearance trigger fired post-#1801 (Slice B) merge
2026-05-06. S11 brief authored per B1 RATIFIED prose+regen
bundling discipline.

Phase 1: per-file edits across the post-A+B residual list (~10
files per smart-ram-167's Slice B post-rebase enumeration);
anchor + rule-text-quote pattern per current citation discipline;
bootstrap regen in same PR (no split).

Phase 2: ROADMAP :425 row PARTIAL → Retired with 3-slice receipt;
Q-Slice-C-Retirement-Receipt resolution.

Worker pin smart-ram-167 (#1759) — Slice B precedent owner.
Dispatch packet sent separately to #1759.

* docs(briefs): Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) RATIFIED — defer literal Refined form

Director ratified option (c) at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-... 2026-05-06:
drop `non_negative` predicate at Measure (phantom) layer; rely on
`Quantity = Time` tagging for non-negative-magnitude semantics.

Q-Unit-4 outer-Refined / inner-Measure composition is preserved as
**conceptual model**; the literal `Refined<Measure<...>, predicate>`
form is **deferred to value-typed-integration follow-up** when
substrate gains Refined<> as first-class type expression and

* docs(briefs): S12 F2 + F8 doc-sharpening worker brief — post-#1820 cascade

#1820 (Slice C) merged 2026-05-06; ROADMAP :425 row Retired closes
the prose-reference paydown program. S12 cascade-clearance trigger
fires per B6 RATIFIED single bundled Mgr-tier doc-sharpening PR.

Scope: F2 (.v3 filename-suffix grammar dispatch) + F8 (bootstrap
load-order/exclusion authority) — single bundled PR per B6.
Cross-program coordination with PB Mgr (#1742) per design schedule
§3 P5 (comment-only OR co-author; no duplicate PR).

Worker pin smart-ram-167 (#1759) — Slice C precedent owner;
pattern-familiar with prose+regen bundling discipline. Dispatch
packet sent separately to #1759.

* docs(briefs): S9 brief — UInt landed via #1818; algebra label corrected to CommutativeSemiring

Per proud-lynx-311 merge report at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-...
2026-05-06: PR #1818 landed `type UInt = Nat` after codex BLOCKING
review on initial `CommutativeMonoid<Nat>` form (P2 facts-flow-forward
violation — wrap projects out Nat's multiplicative monoid + identity 1).

Final landed form preserves full `CommutativeSemiring<Magnitude>`
surface — Nat IS a commutative semiring (addition + multiplication
+ 0 + 1). Algebra-side label for UInt is CommutativeSemiring, NOT
CommutativeMonoid (corrects my earlier dispatch labeling).

S9 Phase-1 step 2 marked LANDED with merge ref. Phase-1 step 3
emission entries reframed:
- Int<N> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<N>>
- UInt<N> ≡ Compose<CommutativeSemiring, MachineWidth<N>>

Worker discipline + reviewer caught a substrate-state error in my
brief framing; brief now matches landed reality.

* docs(briefs): fix contradictory (c) guidance in Unit/Quantity worker brief

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1825 sha 1bce0418 caught a real
contradiction: brief Phase-2 prose at lines 115-118 stated
"predicates do NOT attach at the Measure (phantom) layer" per
Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) RATIFIED, but immediately
following paragraph at lines 130-132 still said "Refined predicate
non_negative applies at the Measure-typed level" — left over from
the original Q-Unit-4 framing.

Updated lines 130-137 to consistently apply (c) shape: predicates
deferred to value-typed-integration follow-up; dimensional semantics
ride on Quantity tag at Measure layer; worker authors 3 in-scope
refinements WITHOUT predicate at this layer.

P2 boundary discipline restored: brief now gives single-authority
guidance for Phase-2 substrate landing.

* docs(briefs): name predicate authority + concretize ratification ID — codex BLOCKING

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1825 sha 32541a56:

1. (BLOCKING) Q-Refined-Phantom-Composition (c) ratification deferred
   phantom-carrier predicates without naming the value-level predicate
   authority. Updated canvas Q-Unit-4 RATIFICATION row to explicitly
   name: 'predicates re-attach at value-typed Int/UInt level via
   where-sugar (e.g., range(min: 0) per current dsl/std/types.dag
   precedent)' when value-typed integration lands.

2. (BLOCKING) Worker brief option-c reframe didn't sweep the audit
   receipt §5 (Carrier dissolves the bridge). Updated to consistently
   apply (c) shape — dimensional semantics ride on Quantity tag at
   Measure layer; value-level predicate authority deferred; until
   then, range/gt_zero constraints attach at value-typed Int/UInt
   via where-sugar per dsl/std/types.dag convention.

3. (NON-BLOCKING) Canvas had #issuecomment-... placeholder for the
   (c) ratification message ID. Replaced with concrete
   #issuecomment-4385687075 per dashboard relay header.

Brief now names a single value-level authority (Int/UInt where-sugar)
for value-range facts; phantom-layer Quantity tag carries only
dimensional semantics. P2 boundary discipline maintained.

* docs(briefs): S12 RETIRED per Director option (2) ratification

Director ratified option (2) at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385873...
2026-05-06 post smart-ram-167's substrate-state STOP-AND-ESCALATE:

- F2 absorbed by 2026-05-04 routing + #1662 closure
  (`Result/DivError span.file-keyed` retired)
- F8 topical concerns distributed across live rows
  (Class 5 Gap 3 `bootstrap.rs::std_fixtures()`; Character-level
  load-set / bootstrap; Filename-sentinel-bridges) with own owners
- Doc-discipline goals absorbed by per-Mgr citation paydown
  routing at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4385583247

Frontmatter updated to RETIRED with absorption receipt. Worker
(smart-ram-167) pin freed.

Director-side acknowledgment of Substrate Mgr's option (2) recommendation:
"Substrate Mgr's option (2) recommendation is the right move
structurally. Most Mgrs default to 'synthesize work to fill the brief'
when canvas-vs-HEAD mismatch surfaces. Recommending retirement when
the work is genuinely absorbed is harder discipline."

* docs(briefs): S7 PR-F (BoundDeclaration consumer + ReferenceModel<T>) worker brief

Per cascade-clearance trigger fired post-#1782 merge 2026-05-06.
loyal-wolf-828 (#1764) acknowledged S7 dispatch with substrate-state
pre-flight grep (gunbc#1764 #issuecomment-4385872...) and surfaced
await-brief posture. This brief satisfies that prerequisite.

Worker pre-flight inventory absorbed:
- BoundDeclaration substrate landed (substrate.dag StaticBound +
  PlatformDependent); partial BoundDeclarationView consumer in
  fold.rs (ScratchIntExamples scope; doc-explicit partial)
- ReferenceModel<T> NOT yet in dsl/std/ (substrate-fact-introduction
  required; design-emission-model.md §Q2 framing)

Phase-1: BoundDeclaration consumer broadening to full
design-emission-model.md surface (u128 / isize / usize / walker
arms / pilot mirror).

Phase-2: ReferenceModel<T> P1 substrate-fact-introduction with
DFS-of-concept-DAG + Practice 4 in-source checkpoint comment +
named consumer demand (Grounding G1).

Phase-3: cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for
G1 (T-Ground-Rust Phase 1).

Closure predicate: unblocks Grounding T-Ground-Rust Phase 1.
Worker pin loyal-wolf-828 holds; dispatch fires immediately
on this brief landing.

* docs(briefs): S9 Slice 2.5 — predicate-registry + PB-1 shim retirement (Path 3 RATIFIED)

Director ratified Path 3 at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4390333451
post proud-lynx-311's pre-flight DFS at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-4390253616.

Brief reframes Slice 2.5 from S-sized (primitive + 1 consumer) to
L-sized (predicate registry + PB-1 shim retirement). 5 deliverables:
1. gt_zero primitive predicate
2. Predicate registry infrastructure (resolver-side substrate-fact-introduction)
3. PB-1 shim retirement (span.file=='dsl/std/types.dag' special case dissolves)
4. Migration of existing types.dag predicates (range, pattern, etc.)
5. PositiveInt = Refined<Nat, gt_zero> consumer update

Per Director hard scope bars: no parallel predicate-resolution path;
no per-call-site special-casing; PB-1 shim retirement non-negotiable
in same slice. Single PR per Path 3 RATIFIED.

Discipline anchors: feedback_construction_over_ratchets (PB-1 shim
is bridge); feedback_dissolve_bridges (registry is structural fix);
feedback_no_textual_enforcement_bridges (file-path special-case is
anti-pattern shape); P1 substrate-fact-introduction procedure.

Worker pin proud-lynx-311 — Director pre-cleared on pre-flight DFS
context. PR #1840 (partial Slice 2 — NonNegativeInt = Nat) MERGED
at 16:54Z; Slice 2.5 dispatchable immediately on this brief landing.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 audit receipt — Mgr independent grep parallel-verifies worker DFS

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1845 sha 2d230949 flagged: external PR
receipt absorbed as live substrate state without re-grepping local
std declarations at brief authoring time. Authority receipt §1
cited proud-lynx-311's pre-flight DFS as authority but didn't
record Mgr-side independent verification.

Updated audit receipt §1 + §4 to record Mgr's independent grep at
HEAD as parallel verification:
- gt_zero zero matches in dsl/std/ + src/v3/ (verified)
- NonNegativeInt = Nat at dsl/std/integer.dag:133 (#1840 land)
- PositiveInt = Int where range(min: 1) at dsl/std/types.dag:255
- PB-1 shim doc-block confirms bridge-text framing
- Predicate registry confirmed not present

Worker DFS remains the dispatch-time discipline (substrate-state
grep at dispatch); Mgr's independent grep is parallel verification,
not substitute. Per Director's pattern note at gunbc#828
#issuecomment-4390199218 + #issuecomment-4390333451: dispatch-packet
authoring discipline includes Mgr-side substrate-state-grep, not
just relay of worker findings.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Int extensibility scope-bound; lower.rs cites anchored

openai-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1845 sha 2d230949 flagged 2 issues:

BLOCKING — P1 modeling faithfulness / substrate scope leak:
`gt_zero` Int-side extensibility was left to 'worker judgment if
generalization cheap'. Per feedback_construction_over_ratchets:
don't speculatively extend predicate-carrier compatibility ahead
of named consumer demand. Reframed to **EXPLICITLY OUT-OF-SCOPE**
for Slice 2.5; Nat-only registration. Future Int-side consumer
surfaces as separate substrate-fact-introduction (P1 procedure)
brief with own consumer-demand receipt.

NON-BLOCKING — citation discipline self-violation:
3 instances of bare `lower.rs:821-835` line-range citations
contradict the brief's own 'no bare :NNN' requirement at line 211.
Converted to function-name anchored form:
`src/v3/compiler/src/lower.rs` (`lower_type_alias_refinements_phase` doc-block).

Both findings absorbed; no parallel scope ambiguity remains;
brief now self-consistent on citation discipline.

* WIP: R3 Substrate

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — audit-receipt cites converted to declaration-name anchors

cursor APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS on PR #1845 sha ebf6ac12 noted citation

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Path (a) RATIFIED carrier+argument contract verification

Director Path (a) RATIFIED at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4390760353
(triage) + #issuecomment-4390794121 (convergence ack):
predicate-body lowering with carrier+argument contract
verification at lower-time IN SAME SLICE. Placeholder semantics
REMOVED from registry path.

Codex REQUEST_CHANGES surfaced that registered-predicate-without-
contract = silent acceptance per feedback_fail_closed_discipline.
Brief reframe absorbs Path (a):

Hard scope bar #5 added:
- Same-slice carrier+argument-contract verification
- Mismatched carrier OR malformed argument → Diagnostic::ResolveError
- No 'named but not checked' path remains

Scope expansion section added (L → XL):
- Predicate-body lowering for all 7 registered predicates
- Per-predicate arg-shape validation
- Multi-session work acknowledged
- Carrier-check at 788d6acb4 retained; predicate-body builds on top

Acceptance bullets updated: gt_zero with arg-shape validation +
all 7 predicates with carrier+argument contract verification.

Director-pinned brief-authoring discipline: dissolution trigger
named in a brief authored as substrate-fact-introduction must
specify same-slice acceptance, not deferred follow-up. Otherwise
the brief encodes 'land bridge + defer dissolution' anti-pattern,
the same shape feedback_construction_over_ratchets warns against
at implementation layer applied at brief authoring layer.

This is the 11th miss this session — but the pattern surfacing it
(direct sweep + Codex REQUEST_CHANGES + Director ratification)
produces structural fixes that prevent the next miss class. Brief
revision is the structural recovery.

* docs(briefs): Slice 2.5 brief — Path 2 RATIFIED (Gap 1 discharge + Q-Regex carve-out)

Director Path 2 RATIFIED at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4391985613
post Rung 3 STOP at gunbc#1746 #issuecomment-4391946213.

Path 2 narrowing of Path (a):
- gt_zero + range body synthesis already landed (5f3c40c3a)
- Gap 1 discharge mechanism: extends scalar-literal predicate
  evaluation at lower-time. L-class; lands SAME SLICE per
  same-slice-dissolution discipline
- non_empty + brand body synthesis: lands via Gap 1 discharge
- pattern / format / content: fail-closed-with-named-dep at
  user-code authoring layer (Diagnostic::ResolveError naming
  Q-Regex-Primitive). NOT placeholder; structural rejection
- PB-1 shim FULLY RETIRED per hard scope bar #3
- Q-Regex-Primitive carved as follow-on substrate-fact-introduction
  (XL substrate; not pre-authored per feedback_construction_over_ratchets)

Acceptance updated:
- 4 of 7 body-synthesized in same slice
- 3 of 7 fail-closed-with-named-dep (no placeholder semantics)
- Gap 1 discharge mechanism landed (no partial implementation)

Worker disposition: proud-lynx-311 continues Rung 3 with Gap 1
implementation + non_empty/brand body synthesis + pattern/format/
content fail-closed-with-named-dep diagnostic.

* docs(briefs): S9 Phase-1 Step 3 emission entries — Tier-1 brief authoring (1/5)

First Tier-1 brief landing post Director auto-nudge on assignment
#1858. Authored against Q-MachineConstraint sub-decisions ratified
shape now landed at #1856:

- Int<N> ≡ Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<N>> → Rust i32/i64/i128
- UInt<N> ≡ Compose<CommutativeSemiring, MachineWidth<N>> → Rust u32/u64/u128
- 6 concrete instantiations (≥3 minimum per sub-decision 5)
- Cross-program handoff to Grounding Mgr (#1745) for G2 emission consumption
- numeric_construction_demonstration Acceptance bullet (Int<32> round-trip);
  Real<64> half deferred to S9 Phase 2 / S8 Float cascade

Brief authored with substrate-state-grep discipline + same-slice-
dissolution discipline (no deferred trigger; demonstration in same
slice or explicitly carved). 5-question authority audit completed
in brief body.

Worker pin proud-lynx-311 (S9 holds); brief queues post-Slice-2.5
completion as natural follow-on.

Tier-1 brief queue progress:
- 1/5 authored (this brief)
- 4 remaining: S9 Phase-2 Float coordination; T-LBP complexity
  cementing; T-LBP cost cementing; S3 Phase-2 parser-grammar

* docs(briefs): S3 Phase-2 parser-grammar surface — Tier-1 brief 2/5

Authored per Director freed-pool pressure at gunbc#828
#issuecomment-4392095857 + Tier-1 brief-queue commitment.

Brief covers parser-grammar surface for Compose<Algebra, MachineConstraint>
interaction syntax post-#1856 (Phase-1 carrier slice landed):

- Phase 2.1: Parser surface per ratified Q-MachineConstraint-Grammar-Shape
- Phase 2.2: Bootstrap demonstrator with >=3 algebra*machine-axis pairs
- Phase 2.3: Class 1 5-criteria Pass receipt (criteria 1-4; criterion 5
  v2-oracle parity may carve)
- Phase 2.4: numeric_construction_demonstration co-receipt with S9 Phase-1
  Step 3 emission entries brief

Director ratification HOLDS on grammar bikeshed:
- Candidate A: Int @ Width<32> (annotation form)
- Candidate B: Int with MachineWidth<32> (with-form)
- Candidate C: Int<32> (positional generic — fits existing convention)
- Candidate D: Compose<AbelianGroup, MachineWidth<32>> (no parser change;
  type aliases provide convenience names)

Worker pin valiant-ant-72 holds (S3 Phase-1 precedent owner); freed-pool
until Director ratifies grammar shape.

Tier-1 brief queue progress: 2/5 authored (this brief + S9 Phase-1 Step 3).
Remaining: S9 Phase-2 Float coordination; T-LBP complexity cementing;
T-LBP cost cementing.

* docs(briefs): S3 Phase-2 brief — fix internal contradiction on Class 1 closure scope

Codex BLOCKING review on PR #1889 sha ec609b4a flagged real
contradiction:

- Provenance section claimed '5-criteria Pass closed' (line 229)
- Phase 2.3 said 'criterion 5 may queue separately' (line 154)
- STOP-AND-ESCALATE bullet 1 ratified 4-of-5 carve-out (line 181)

Updated Provenance to consistently state criteria 1-4 close in this
slice; criterion 5 (v2-oracle parity) cementing test may carve to
separate slice. Single 4-of-5 framing throughout. INVARIANTS.md
'Documentation Describes Live State' satisfied.

Per feedback_construction_over_ratchets: don't claim closure that
isn't structurally complete. 4-of-5 + named carve is the honest
shape; 5/5 only on cementing-test land.

- 4 predicates body-synthesize via Gap 1 (gt_zero / range / non_empty

- pattern / format / content STRUCTURALLY ABSENT from registry (not

- ~12 types.dag refined-type declarations migrate to drop

handoff at gunbc#846 #issuecomment-4392510255.

Two real substrate-shape questions stacked:

provenance is per-emitted-line. 4 options surfaced — (a) per-Behavior
Lens-compatible / (b) per-line instrumentation NOT a lens / (c)
withdraw + re-canvas / (d) Mgr-surface both substrates distinct.
Mgr recommends (d) if visualization is load-bearing; (a) suffices
if per-Behavior aggregate works for the slide. Brian-channel
sub-question surfaced.

Q2 (fold-rule enumerability): T-Rule-Enumeration substrate-fact-
introduction is prerequisite for every Q1 path (rust_target.rs uses
inline &str template names; rules not enumerable). Mgr recommends
parallel-dispatch with Q1 deliberation — satisfies Brian's ASAP
framing while shape ratifies.

Q3 (§1.8 ledger retarget): #89 already taken by T-LAS; new cluster

- UInt<N> = Compose<UInt, MachineWidth<N>>   (UInt = CommutativeSemiring<Nat>)
- Real<N> = Compose<Real, MachineWidth<N>>   (Real = ApproximateField<Rational>)

Phase-2 Float brief also retargets user-facing surface from Float<N>

Real is the algebraic-concept name per Q-MC sub-decision 3 example).

* s9-p1-s3 brief: scope Deliverable 4 to producer-side verification (defer demonstration to Grounding G2)

Address Codex BLOCKING (line 82 inline + bundled review): brief
claimed end-to-end Int<32> → Rust i32 round-trip in Acceptance
while Deliverable 3 said lowering rules belong to Grounding G2
follow-on. Internal contradiction.

Reframe per Director bundled-scope discipline (gunbc#1739
#issuecomment-4392225548 — parallel infrastructure DISALLOWED
same-PR):

- Deliverable 4: producer-side substrate-axis verification only
  (type-check + carrier acceptance + bootstrap snapshot/manifest
  hold). NO end-to-end Rust emission in this PR.
- §1.8 #67 numeric_construction_demonstration receipts split:
  producer half here (entries exist), consumer half on Grounding
  G2 PR (full Int<32> → Rust i32 round-trip).
- Same-PR cross-program co-author available if Substrate Mgr
  coordinates with Grounding Mgr at dispatch; default is split.

* WIP: R3 Substrate

* briefs: address codex BLOCKING bundle (sha 2ed1046e) — record-form provenance + emit_model carrier alignment + T-Rule-Enumeration retirement flag

Three findings addressed:

1. Lens brief (Finding #1 — provenance shape conflates source vs rule
   attribution): replaced typed-sum EmissionOrigin with record
   EmissionProvenance { rule: EmissionRule [mandatory], source_span:
   Option<SourceSpan> [optional] }. Co-inhabitance is real (e.g.,
   #[derive(Debug)] line has both rule=derive_for_disj AND span
   attribution to Foo decl). Rule-mandatory enforces fail-closed
   structurally; Practice 4 N/A (record, not coproduct).

2. T-Rule-Enumeration brief (Finding #2 — rule authority lives in
   spec/rust.dag + v3.std.emit_model, not call-site strings): brief
   status flipped to FLAGGED FOR RETIREMENT. Same finding as
   smart-ram-167 STOP at gunbc#1759 #issuecomment-4392696623; Reading
   C surfaced to Director at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4392780871.

3. Rust-primitive-full-coverage brief (Finding #3 — BoundDeclaration
   not wired into TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound row surface):
   reframed Deliverable 2 to target the actual carrier
   `v3.std.emit_model::TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound` (used by
   `TargetIntegerTypeInhabitance` rows in src/v3/spec/rust.dag lines
   169-207). Two paths surfaced: Option (i) wire BoundDeclaration into
   TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound; Option (ii) populate via existing
   variants if PlatformDependent already exists on the live carrier.
   Worker DFS at dispatch picks. Deliverable 3 retargeted to
   TargetIntegerTypeInhabitance rows (the actual surface).

Codex BLOCKING inline at PR #1910 line 65 (sha 98507c432) verified at
HEAD: TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound = BoundUnspecified | StaticBoundFact(IntInterval).
No PlatformDependent variant. Earlier brief framing of Option (ii)
(populate via existing variants) was infeasible.

Brief reframed: carrier refactor is required (not optional). Two
structural shapes for the refactor — (i.a) embed BoundDeclaration
(Mgr recommendation; single-authority discipline) vs (i.b) extend
variant set with PlatformDependent. Existing 5 rows migrate either
way; bootstrap snapshot semantic-equivalence non-negotiable.

* emission-provenance lens brief: absorb codex BLOCKING bundle (sha 4229cd09 post-merge findings)

Two findings from codex bundled review on now-merged PR #1910 sha
4229cd09 land as brief revisions for the in-flight smart-ram-167
authoring cycle (PR #1928):

1. Field-path identity threading: render_named_template call sites
   receive template values extracted from binding structs; field-path
   may not be carried alongside the value at emission time. New STOP
   trigger flags this as substrate-cascade if threading isn't
   structurally possible (typed template-with-rule-path or
   DeclarationRef carrier needed).

2. Read domain coverage gap: Lens<C>.read is per-Behavior; emitted
   output also includes declarations + program scaffold. Acceptance
   scope explicitly narrowed to Behavior-attributable lines only;
   declarations + scaffold provenance out-of-scope (separate substrate
   cascade if surfaced). Acceptance bullet retargeted to
   "Behavior-attributable span-Some + Behavior-attributable span-None"
   rather than full-emission coverage.

* rust-primitive-full-coverage: revert to Option (ii) — Mgr ratification-state-grep miss caught by valiant-ibex-312

valiant-ibex-312 ratification-state-grep at gunbc#1761
#issuecomment-4393074602 surfaced that origin/main HEAD has
TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound with 3 variants including
PlatformDependentFact (mirrors BoundDeclaration::PlatformDependent).
Earlier brief framing at 4229cd09d was against pre-PlatformDependentFact
state per codex BLOCKING reading; main moved since.

Option (ii) IS feasible: isize/usize rows populate via existing
PlatformDependentFact variant directly; u128 row populates StaticBoundFact
with BigInt-widened ExactInterval (Deliverable 1 unchanged). No
carrier refactor needed; 5 existing rows untouched.

Second Mgr-tier ratification-state-grep miss today (first was symbol-only
grep on T-Rule-Enumeration; now stale-codex-vs-current-HEAD on
TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound). Worker-tier discipline caught it before
sinking time into invasive Option (i.a) refactor.

Single-authority concern (parallel-named variants on
TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound vs BoundDeclaration) noted as future
substrate-fact-introduction; not blocking this slice — explicit-mirror
is the existing convention.

* rust-primitive-full-coverage: align Acceptance + Phase ordering + STOP triggers to Option (ii) (resolve codex internal-contradiction finding)

codex BLOCKING on PR #1929 sha 14f68b63 caught real internal contradiction: Context section flipped to Option (ii) feasible at 57ae4349b but Acceptance + Phase ordering still referenced BoundDeclaration migration / RustPrimitive bound field refactor from earlier Option (i.a) framing.

All sections now consistent with Option (ii):
- Phase 4 = no-op (TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound carrier untouched)
- Phase 5 = spec/rust.dag rows for isize/usize via existing PlatformDependentFact variant
- Phase 6 = u128 row via StaticBoundFact(IntInterval) + ratchet update
- Acceptance retargeted to row-population shape (no carrier refactor; existing 5 TargetIntegerTypeInhabitance rows untouched)
- STOP triggers retargeted to TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound variant-set sufficiency at HEAD
- Why-bundled rationale rewritten to Option (ii) shape (Phase A widening unblocks u128 StaticBoundFact; isize/usize use existing PlatformDependentFact)

* lens brief: narrow Deliverable 3 verification step 4 to Behavior-attributable lines (resolve codex #2 consistency)

codex BLOCKING #2 on PR #1929 sha 812602b4 caught: Acceptance + STOP triggers narrowed to Behavior-attributable lines but Deliverable 3 cementing-test step 4 still said 'every emitted line'. Now consistent — step 4 explicitly scopes to Behavior-attributable subset; declarations + program scaffold OUT-OF-SCOPE per same Finding #2 framing.

(codex BLOCKING #1 — claim that PlatformDependentFact NOT on main — is wrong; verified at origin/main HEAD: TargetIntegerInhabitanceBound has 3 variants including PlatformDependentFact. Rebut on PR.)

* intplatform brief: rename inner token Platform → PointerWidth per Director ack at…
briansrls added a commit that referenced this pull request May 7, 2026
* docs(briefs): add Lens<EmissionProvenance> worker brief — PM-authored under Director ratification

Per Director ratification at gunbc#828 #issuecomment-4392256151
(zesty-bear-812 — "Lens<EmissionProvenance> as another Lens<C>
instance per feedback_lenses_not_passes; Substrate authors instance
carrier; Verification asserts gate") and Brian directive 2026-05-06
chat ("R3 has idle workers under several managers, so we should put
them to work asap").

Brief covers:

- EmissionProvenance C-type with fail-closed discipline
  (at least one of source_span / fold_rule present per emitted line
  per feedback_fail_closed_discipline C-8)
- Lens<EmissionProvenance> instance per existing Lens<C> 6-field shape
  (Director-locked at src/v3/std/lens.dag); shape parity with existing
  T-CostLens-Composition Lens<SymbolicCost> precedent
- Cementing test verifying inverse mapping closes (every emitted line
  has either populated source_span OR fold_rule; both-absent fails
  closed)
- 4 STOP triggers (missing fold-rule names; Lens<C> shape gaps;
  third origin class surface; substrate-state-grep mismatch)
- Cross-lane refs to T-LAS (instance becomes consumable via apply_lens
  post-T-LAS); Grounding (downstream consumer optional, R3 scope is
  instance landing only); T-CostLens-Composition (shape precedent)
- Worker pin candidates: smart-ram-167 OR valiant-ibex-312 (Mgr discretion)
- §1.8 ledger gate #89 emission_provenance_lens_landed (proposed)

Brief is pre-authored per feedback_pre_authored_brief_queue discipline.
Substrate Mgr disposes dispatch readiness at brief-PR-merge time;
adjusts content lightly if substrate state shifts (does not re-author
from scratch).

Forward direction (.dag → diagnostic source-span) already exists
structurally (SourceSpan on every Behavior + Declaration per dag.rs:47-48);
inverse direction (emitted Rust → .dag origin) is implicit in the
fold but not currently exposed as metadata stream. This lens instance
landing exposes it.

PR #1879 (emission-intuition slide) surfaced the gap; visualization
claim benefits from this lens once landed.

* docs(briefs): apply 2 claude APPROVE-with-observations refinements

Per claude review at sha 3c96212 (PR #1902 #issuecomment-4392308244):

1. Optional<T> canonical shape: PM grep-verified that .dag uses T? suffix
   (e.g., String? at src/v3/std/anthropic_schema.dag:115-119); named
   Optional carriers like OptionalDiagnostic exist at
   src/v3/std/dimensions.dag:41 but generic Optional is T? suffix.
   Updated EmissionProvenance C-type fields:
   - source_span: OptionalSourceSpan -> SourceSpan?
   - fold_rule: OptionalString -> String?
   Added explicit "Optional shape note" with grep references.

2. STOP trigger #1 (missing fold-rule names) reframed as likely
   prerequisite-not-mid-implementation-STOP: claude observed that
   STOP #1 is most likely-to-fire one — really a prerequisite, not
   a stop-condition. PM grep-verified at authoring-time that fold-rule
   names are NOT enumerable in src/v3/compiler/src/ (0 hits for
   RuleName / FoldRule / fn emit_derive). Updated STOP trigger #1
   to surface this as PM-side recommendation: Substrate Mgr disposes
   resolution before worker dispatch (rule-name enumeration substrate
   as separate brief OR confirm grep was incomplete OR re-scope to
   land partial-provenance only). Avoids mid-implementation discovery
   of a hard prerequisite.

Both observations are non-blocking per claude verdict (APPROVE) but
worth applying for downstream worker quality + Substrate Mgr
prerequisite-resolution-before-dispatch.

* docs(briefs): apply 3 codex BLOCKING findings on emission-provenance brief — status PROPOSAL pending Substrate Mgr canvas

Codex BLOCKING at sha 3c96212 (PR #1902) surfaced 3 substantively valid
findings; all PM grep-verified before applying.

Finding 1 (optional+invariant origin → typed-sum origin) APPLIED:

  type EmissionOrigin =
      SubstrateDeclMirror { span: SourceSpan }
    | FoldRuleAutoEmit { rule_name: String }
  type EmissionProvenance {
    emitted_line: Int
    origin: EmissionOrigin   // REQUIRED
  }

The Disj carrier makes "at least one origin class present" structurally
true; eliminates the prior optional+runtime-invariant structural recovery
pattern. Per feedback_state_space_vs_behavioral_invariants
(type enforcement > API enforcement).

Finding 2 (Lens<C> read shape category mismatch) FLAGGED:

  Lens<C>.read: fn(Dag, Behavior) -> Witness<C>
  per src/v3/std/lens.dag — per-Behavior read.
  Emission provenance is per-emitted-LINE, not per-Behavior.
  Real category mismatch.

Brief reframed to status: PROPOSAL pending Substrate Mgr canvas. Three
reframing paths surfaced for Substrate Mgr disposition:
  (a) per-Behavior framing (Lens<C>-compatible; narrower scope; doesn't
      directly support Brian's slide visualization)
  (b) per-emitted-line instrumentation (NOT a lens; matches Brian's
      visualization; different substrate shape entirely)
  (c) withdraw + canvas first; re-author once shape ratified.
PM recommendation: (c). Substantive reshape needs Substrate Mgr canvas,
not PM tactical pre-authoring.

Finding 3 (§1.8 #89 already taken) APPLIED:

  PM grep-verified §1.8 #89 is `section_ref_substrate_landed` under
  T-Lens-Application-Surface (already declared 2026-05-06). My citation
  was wrong. Brief frontmatter retargeted to "TBD — gate authority
  pending"; cites 3 candidate retarget paths for Substrate Mgr
  disposition: (a) new gate under T-CostLens-Composition cluster
  (#37-#40 analog); (b) new gate under T-LAS; (c) deferred until
  per-Behavior framing ratified.

Brief is now NOT dispatch-ready — explicitly PROPOSAL status until
Substrate Mgr canvas resolves Finding 2 + gate authority.

PM tactical-authority limit acknowledged: emission-provenance is
substantively richer than I initially scoped; Substrate Mgr canvas
is the right next step, not worker dispatch.

* docs(briefs): tighten EmissionOrigin — typed LangSpecRule ref, not arbitrary String

Per codex BLOCKING inline at brief line 57 (sha 3c96212) — same
finding-class as parent BLOCKING but more pointed: while my prior fix
(commit 0110f73) eliminated the both-absent admittance via typed
Disj, FoldRuleAutoEmit { rule_name: String } still admitted arbitrary
fold-rule strings. P2 illegal-states-unrepresentable requires typed
LangSpec rule ref, not free String.

Fix: FoldRuleAutoEmit { rule: LangSpecRule } where LangSpecRule is a
typed enumeration of LangSpec emission rules. Now both structural
invariants hold by construction:
  - "at least one origin class is present" (typed Disj over the 2 classes)
  - "rule names are well-formed LangSpec identifiers" (typed enumeration)

This reinforces the rule-name-enumeration prerequisite already
cross-relayed to Substrate Mgr at gunbc#1739 #issuecomment-4392435376:
LangSpecRule typed enumeration MUST exist as substrate carrier before
this brief can dispatch. Substrate Mgr disposes: (a) author
LangSpecRule enumeration substrate first; (b) confirm grep was
incomplete and rules ARE enumerable elsewhere; (c) brief dispatched
only after typed-rule prerequisite lands.

Per feedback_state_space_vs_behavioral_invariants — eliminates
structural-recovery pattern by making invariants type-true rather
than runtime-asserted.

Brief stays status: PROPOSAL pending Substrate Mgr canvas on Finding 2
(Lens<C> read-shape category mismatch) + Finding 3 (gate retargeting).

* docs(briefs): deepen F2 reframing — Lens<C> read DOMAIN mismatch (not just granularity)

Per codex BLOCKING inline at line 73 (sha c375eba): the Lens<C> read
shape mismatch is deeper than initially framed.

Initial frame: "Lens<C> is per-Behavior; goal is per-emitted-line —
category mismatch on granularity."

Deeper frame (PM grep-verified): Lens<C>.read domain is
`Behavior = Value | Transform | Branch` per src/v3/std/substrate.dag:465.
The brief's acceptance surface includes lines from:
  - Declaration-origin (e.g., pub enum Sum<A,B> from .dag type Sum
    declaration; pub struct HttpError from type HttpError declaration)
  - LangSpec auto-emits (e.g., #[derive], impl X { is_left }, impl X { new })

Declarations are at src/v3/std/substrate.dag:235 — structurally separate
from Behaviors. Auto-emits have no .dag source at all. Both are
OUTSIDE Lens<C>.read's domain entirely.

So the mismatch is structural at TWO axes simultaneously:
  - Granularity: per-Behavior (lens) vs per-emitted-line (goal)
  - Domain coverage: Lens<C> can only read Behaviors; brief's acceptance
    includes Declaration-origin + auto-emits which Lens<C> structurally
    cannot see

Reframing paths revised (deeper):
  (a) Per-Behavior, narrow domain — Lens<C>-compatible, EXCLUDES
      Declaration-origin + auto-emit lines entirely; very narrow;
      doesn't support Brian's visualization
  (b) Per-emitted-line instrumentation, NEW substrate — NOT a lens;
      requires substrate-fact-introduction (P1 procedure); matches
      visualization need
  (c) Withdraw + canvas first — stronger PM recommendation given the
      deeper mismatch

PM-side stance: brief stays status: PROPOSAL pending Substrate Mgr
canvas. The Lens<C> framing isn't just narrow; it's structurally
insufficient for the brief's acceptance surface. Substantive reshape
needs Substrate Mgr canvas + Director ratification on the right shape.

Per feedback_corrections_must_grep_verify_source — both axes of the
mismatch grep-verified:
  - Behavior shape at src/v3/std/substrate.dag:465 (3-variant Disj)
  - Declaration shape at src/v3/std/substrate.dag:235 (separate type)
  - Lens<C>.read at src/v3/std/lens.dag (per-Behavior fold)
