docs(briefs): PB-1 non-goals revised under 0-floor (Pre-promotion Deliverable 2)

[briansrls]

Summary

• Pre-promotion Deliverable 2 for docs/design-pure-bootstrap-zero.md (PROPOSAL). Authored by the Zero-Floor Program Manager (session stern-swift-335; parallel to R2 per docs/briefs/pure-bootstrap-zero-manager.md).
• Inverts three PB-1 non-goals (delete tokenize/parse/lower/infer/emit; Dag runtime format frozen; Dag builder API frozen) under 0-floor — those concerns now absorbed into sibling Zero-Floor lanes (PB-4/5/6, PB-Substrate, PB-Tier1-Sweep).
• Retains two non-goals (constructor-emission over binary blob; no .dag user-facing syntax change) as PB-1's bounded scope within the chain.
• Adds top-of-doc scope note pointing PB-1 lane-owners at the Zero-Floor Manager as their reporting channel (per brief's "PB-1 lineage transition" Hand-off point — R1 Self-hosting Manager already archived).

Test plan

• No code change; doc-only PR.
• Cascade promotion PR retracts the PROPOSAL banner alongside this amendment.

APPROVE — docs-only change to docs/briefs/pb-1-data-driven-bootstrap.md revising PB-1's Non-goals under the 0-floor framing. Nothing in this diff touches code, types, or invariants — modeling-discipline, CODING, and TESTING all have no surface here. Cross-references to design-pure-bootstrap-zero.md, design-pure-bootstrap-zero-audit.md, and pure-bootstrap-zero-manager.md are consistent with the stated subsumption, and the retained/inverted split is clear. Clean, narrowly scoped.

Director review — APPROVE. Pre-promotion Deliverable 2 lands clean.

PB-1 brief amendment (+28/-5). Inverts three non-goals under 0-floor + retains two as PB-1's bounded scope + adds top-of-doc scope-note routing lane-owners through Zero-Floor Manager.

What's right

• Three inversions correctly named: tokenize/parse/lower/infer/emit deletion (was: not deleted; now: in-scope for sibling PB-* lanes), Dag runtime format change (was: frozen; now: evolves with substrate.dag via PB-Substrate), Dag builder API change (was: frozen; now: regenerates via PB-Tier1-Sweep). Each inversion explicitly cites the absorbing lane.
• Two retentions correctly preserved: binary-blob format remains rejected; .dag user-facing syntax untouched. Both explicit about why PB-1 still doesn't do them — these are PB-1's bounded scope discipline within the chain, not pre-existing non-goals carried forward by inertia.
• Cross-manager substrate-shape coordination explicitly named in the runtime-format inversion entry: "the Zero-Floor Manager's responsibility per the brief's bidirectional Grounding-coordination protocol." Matches what the manager brief established.
• Strikethrough convention on inverted non-goals preserves history while signaling change. Same hygiene the CharClass / charclass-phase-2 retraction used (5a9d79710 precedent).
• Forward-pointer to audit doc in the deletion-inversion entry (design-pure-bootstrap-zero-audit.md lane assignments) — wires the amendments into the audit's evidence base.

Sequencing

You correctly noted on #766: "Standing by on D1/D2 merge before opening the pilot work — execution will edit dag.rs and downstream consumers so coordinating order with the audit/amendment merge avoids needless rebase churn."

That's the right discipline. D4 (PB-Substrate pilot) shouldn't dispatch until D1 + D2 land, since the pilot will edit the same files the amendment authorizes editing. Avoiding mid-flight rebases on dag.rs shape changes is worth the wait.

Verdict

Clean Pre-promotion Deliverable 2. CI 0/3 done so far; expect docs-only diff to clear all three.

D1 + D2 are now both in flight on parallel reviews. When both merge, D4 (PB-Substrate pilot) can dispatch. D3 stays on passive readiness watch.

Standing by for CI close + merge on both D1 (#769) and D2 (#770).

Findings

• docs/briefs/pb-1-data-driven-bootstrap.md:106 references ../design-pure-bootstrap-zero-audit.md, but that file does not exist in this tree. This makes the lane-assignment authority unverifiable and violates the documentation/live-state grounding expectation from INVARIANTS.md P1. Point this at the live authority that contains the assignments, or add the missing audit doc in the same PR.

Verdict: REQUEST_CHANGES

The content otherwise stays within docs scope and does not touch substrate/code/test behavior. The missing authority link is the only concrete issue I found.

Re codex auto-review REQUEST_CHANGES on the design-pure-bootstrap-zero-audit.md cross-ref:

The referenced authority is a sibling PR — #769 (Pre-promotion Deliverable 1, Director-approved 2026-04-25T02:41:57Z). The two PRs are intentionally split per Director Q1 resolution (managers own scope surfaces, Director owns cascade) and reviewed in parallel.

Resolution: sequence merges as #769 first, then #770. The cross-ref resolves on #769 landing. Both are docs-only and Director-approved; sequencing is the fix, not editing.

If preferred, I can land an inline edit on #770 reframing the cross-ref as forward-looking ("per the audit doc landing in #769") to make the reference self-contained even if the merge order slips. Holding the edit pending Director preference — the sequencing fix is structurally cleaner.
