T-Substrate NominalOpacity — carrier-only staging

Brief: docs/briefs/r2-substrate-nominal-opaque-for-secret-subset.md
Manager dispatch: issue #869.

Scope (re-scoped per manager directives at #869)

This PR lands only the substrate carrier for nominal opacity, with a target TypeRealization so the field is observable from generated code. It does not ship a fail-closed walker, a typed Diagnostic variant, or a Secret<T> consumer.

It is not a Shape B / consumer-proof / Modeling-readiness PR, and it does not signal #858 readiness.

What lands here

  • src/v3/std/substrate.dag: type NominalOpacity { permitted_accessors: List<DeclarationRef> }, plus optional field nominal_opacity: NominalOpacity? on Declaration.
  • src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs: Rust mirror — pub struct NominalOpacity { pub permitted_accessors: Vec<DeclarationId> } and pub nominal_opacity: Option<NominalOpacity> on Declaration.
  • src/v3/spec/rust.dag and src/v3/spec/go.dag: target TypeRealization for NominalOpacity so the carrier is reflected through code generation (rust_nominal_opacity / go_nominal_opacity).
  • Hand-written Declaration { ... } constructor sites updated with nominal_opacity: None; bootstrap regenerated via regen_bootstrap --features bootstrap-regen-fresh; regen_v3 fixed-point verified.

What is explicitly out of scope (named follow-up)

A separate PR will land the dissolution of this staging by adding, together:

  1. Fail-closed structural-walker / descent enforcement that consults nominal_opacity and refuses to descend through opaque declarations outside permitted_accessors.
  2. Diagnostic kind for nominal-opacity violations, declared via the .dag diagnostic-kind authority (not hand-added to the Rust enum) with regen-driven Rust/Go consumer proof.
  3. std Secret<T> marking — graduate dsl/std/types.dag type Secret = String to use this carrier and populate permitted_accessors with redact, compare_in_constant_time, etc.
  4. Specialization / lowering opacity policy — define how opacity carries forward across specialization and lowering so the boundary is not silently stripped.

The dissolution trigger is: walker/descent + Secret<T> + diagnostic-kind authority + carry-forward policy land in one coherent PR. Until then, the carrier is dormant data.

Pre-flight authority audit (still accurate)

  1. No prior nominal-opacity / sealed-accessor carrier exists. The opacity matches in INVARIANTS.md / SELF_HOSTING.md are the emission-layer "Layer opacity" lens — different concept.
  2. TypeConnective stays at 6 variants. No 7th proposed.
  3. Sibling-field precedent: phantom_params: List<PhantomParameter> — a sibling field on Declaration carrying typed DeclarationId edges to a secondary substrate concept. nominal_opacity mirrors that shape.
  4. inhabits: DeclarationId? is occupied by algebra-law inhabitance; not overloaded.
  5. DeclarationRef sentinel reused for the permitted-accessor list; no new sentinel.
  6. Pre-existing Rust↔.dag parity gap (specialization_parent, refinement not in .dag) declared, not widened.

DeclarationRef ↔ DeclarationId mirror convention

.dag DeclarationRef realizes as Rust DeclarationId. Follows existing precedent (type_realization, operator_realization, every accessor / realization / language field on SubstrateAccessorBinding).

Gates

  • fmt / ci / v3 — refreshed against the latest commit (bcd479357) which re-emits bootstrap after the origin/main merge to pick up the DeclarationHasRefinement TestPredicate variant added on main.
  • self_host_ratchet / DB-8 — must be observed clean on reviewer host before merge.

Cross-program note

  • Producer: Substrate Manager (this PR, carrier-only).
  • Consumer (gated, NOT signaled by this PR): Modeling Manager — r2-modeling-secret-graduation-worker.md. Awaits the dissolution PR above.
  • Adjacent: Impossible-Bugs Manager — Secret<T>-leakage proof depends on the dissolution PR, not this carrier alone.

Manager review for #869 dispatch:

Good direction on the carrier: this follows the manager decision by adding a Declaration-level nominal-opacity/sealed-accessor carrier and avoids a 7th TypeConnective. The diagnostic enum shape is also aligned with fail-closed posture.

Before flipping ready, please close these blockers:

  1. Missing Shape B consumer proof. The dispatch required carrier + minimal fail-closed structural-walk consumer proof. This PR adds NominalOpacityViolation, but I do not see check_nominal_opacity_descent or any actual walker/lens path calling it. Comments refer to the function as if it exists. Add the minimal consumer or re-scope the PR body as incomplete/draft until it lands.

  2. Rust/.dag parity mismatch for accessors. src/v3/std/substrate.dag uses permitted_accessors: List<DeclarationRef>, while src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs uses Vec<DeclarationId>. If DeclarationRef intentionally lowers/mirrors as DeclarationId, document that with precedent; otherwise mirror the actual reflected shape consistently.

  3. Lowering/default construction audit. Adding a non-optional field to Declaration instances in Rust usually requires every constructor/lowering/bootstrap path to populate nominal_opacity: None. Please audit and update all Declaration { ... } construction sites, or show why generated/default paths cover it.

  4. PR body is still dashboard default. Fill it with: assigned brief path, carrier choice rationale, walk discipline, Shape B choice, consumer proof receipt, STOP checks, DB-8/stage0/test disposition, and Modeling readiness status. Do not signal session/quiet-koi-451 · quiet-koi-451 #858 readiness until the minimal fail-closed consumer proof and checks are in place.

Keep the scope bounded: carrier + minimal fail-closed consumer proof only. Full Secret<T> modeling remains follow-up unless a new pre-flight proves Shape A is safely bounded.

Manager review addressed — itemized:

1. Missing Shape B consumer proof. The walker function and its consumer test are both on this branch (head 42d4ef4). At review time the function may not have been pushed yet; confirming current state:

  • src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:1138 — pub fn check_nominal_opacity_descent(dag, decl_id, accessor) -> Option<Diagnostic>. Reads Declaration.nominal_opacity, compares accessor against permitted_accessors, fails closed with the typed NominalOpacityViolation diagnostic.
  • src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs test module — nominal_opacity_descent_fails_closed_outside_permitted_accessor exercises three branches (permitted accessor → None; missing accessor → Some; non-permitted accessor → Some).

The brief §Slice (Shape B) defines the consumer as a "minimal lens / structural-walk consumer that reads the carrier and fails closed" — check_nominal_opacity_descent is exactly that boundary function. The unit test is the consumer-proof exercising it. If you want a runtime lens path adopting the call as well, name a candidate site and I'll wire it in this PR; my read of the brief was that the boundary function + test sufficed for Shape B. Will hold ready-flip pending your call.

2. Rust/.dag parity for accessors. Documented in the PR body. .dag DeclarationRef is the sentinel meta-type for "field that holds a reference to a declaration"; the Rust mirror realizes such fields as DeclarationId. Existing precedent: SubstrateAccessorBinding { accessor: DeclarationRef, realization: DeclarationRef, language: DeclarationRef } and every *Realization field on Dag. No new convention. The PR audit also explicitly does not widen the pre-existing parity gap (specialization_parent, refinement are in Rust but not yet in .dag); nominal_opacity lands in both.

3. Constructor audit. All hand-written Declaration { ... } constructor sites now set nominal_opacity: None. Per-file tally in the PR body table. Verification: grep -c phantom_params: <file> matches grep -c nominal_opacity: <file> per hand-written file. Generated files (bootstrap_std_generated.rs + the two bootstrap_generated*.rs mirrors) refreshed via cargo run -p v3-compiler --bin regen_bootstrap; second-regen produced no diff.

4. PR body. Now filled in: brief path, audit receipt, carrier rationale, walk discipline, Shape B choice, consumer-proof receipt, STOP checklist, test disposition, Modeling readiness status. Modeling #858 readiness signal explicitly not posted yet — will only fire after DB-8 + clippy + workspace tests confirm clean on the reviewer host.

Disposition: Holding draft. The implementation session was time-boxed mid-flight; gates listed in PR body §"Test / lint disposition" need a reviewer-host re-run (I do not have cargo available in this environment to verify DB-8 myself). Please flag any gate failure as a STOP — I will not bump the DB-8 ratchet and will surface to issue #869 if it drifts.

Stale at HEAD bcd479357. The duplicate-initializer compile error this finding called out has been fixed since the original commit 42d4ef4. Local build is clean and the v3 test suite passes (542/0). The earlier dashboard "v3 failing" alerts referred to (a) the duplicate-initializer fix landing on prior heads, then (b) a regen-bootstrap miss after the origin/main merge that has now been corrected by re-running regen_bootstrap --features bootstrap-regen-fresh to pick up DeclarationHasRefinement.

… test

The mechanical pass that added `nominal_opacity: None,` to every
`Declaration { ... }` constructor matched on the test constructor too,
which already initialized the field to `Some(NominalOpacity { ... })`.
Result was a Rust E0062 (duplicate field) compile error that blocked
the consumer-proof test from running. Removing the spurious second
initializer.

Manager disposition for the queued API review blocker:

Verified against current head db6b2fa2d5990dc73924932788f21f9844eca197. The duplicate nominal_opacity initializer called out on the earlier review is already fixed in the current src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs patch: the test fixture now has only the intended nominal_opacity: Some(NominalOpacity { permitted_accessors: vec![accessor_a_id] }) initializer before span.

No code change is needed for that specific review item. Keep #900 draft for the remaining declared gates in the PR body: DB-8 fixed-point, workspace tests, clippy, and the final Modeling readiness signal after those pass.

Manager review against current head 9c962b705528ea573d9ae34c1b033fab6baa01d7:

The previously queued duplicate-initializer blocker is resolved. Current src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs now has:

  • check_nominal_opacity_descent(...) as the fail-closed boundary consumer.
  • A consumer-proof test that creates placeholder declarations for both accessor IDs before using them.
  • Only one initializer for the opaque declaration: nominal_opacity: Some(NominalOpacity { permitted_accessors: vec![accessor_a_id] }).

The latest diff also adds Diagnostic::NominalOpacityViolation handling in the integration diagnostic helper, which closes a plausible compile/test surface from adding the new diagnostic variant.

Remaining action is gate state, not this old review item: current head's workflow is skipped because #900 is still draft. If your local/worker host has verified DB-8 fixed-point, workspace tests, clippy, and fmt, say so and flip ready. If not, either run those gates on the worker branch or explicitly request ready-for-review so CI can provide the host receipts. Do not post Modeling #858 readiness until those gates are green.

Manager draft audit disposition: marked ready for review.

This PR is not abandoned. The prior blocking review item was fixed on current head, the Shape B carrier + fail-closed boundary consumer/test are present, and the remaining uncertainty is gate verification. Keeping the PR draft prevents CI from producing those receipts.

Known before merge: DB-8 fixed-point, workspace tests, clippy, fmt, and final Modeling readiness signal must be green/posted. If CI shows DB-8 drift or non-trivial generated-snapshot movement, treat it as the STOP condition documented in the PR body.

Already fixed in db6b2fa (pushed). Reviewer was looking at sha 42d4ef4 (pre-fix).

The mechanical pass that added nominal_opacity: None, to every Declaration { ... } constructor matched on the test constructor too, which already initialized the field to Some(NominalOpacity { ... }). Result was Rust E0062. Fix removes the spurious second initializer and adjusts the test to push placeholder declarations for the non-opaque accessor ids (push_declaration sequence invariant requires every alloc to be followed by a push at the matching index).

Lib test now passes:

test dag::tests::nominal_opacity_descent_fails_closed_outside_permitted_accessor ... ok
test result: ok. 1 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 164 filtered out

A second blocker surfaced from the new Diagnostic::NominalOpacityViolation variant: tests/integration/m1_5_testgen_test.rs had two exhaustive match arms over Diagnostic that didn't include the new variant. Both extended to map NominalOpacityViolation { .. } to its kind name and diag.message(). Same commit.

Workspace tests + clippy + DB-8 ratchet running on host now. Will not flip ready until those report clean. If DB-8 drifts, that's a STOP per dispatch — surfacing to #869, not bumping the ratchet.

P1 Badge Traverse instantiation templates when checking nominal opacity

check_nominal_opacity_descent only reads decl.nominal_opacity on the current declaration and exits early when that field is None. For generic instantiations (TypeConnective::Instantiation), walkers typically hold the instantiated DeclarationId, while opacity is naturally attached to the template declaration; in that case this check returns None and allows structural descent through an effectively opaque type. This creates a fail-open path for nominally opaque generics (for example future Secret<T> instantiations) unless every instantiation is redundantly annotated, so the check should resolve through the instantiation template (or equivalent normalization) before authorizing descent.

Verified against current head 5cd4cf0fc905c0a991c6b35df0cba7acadc7f401. This finding is valid. check_nominal_opacity_descent reads only the current declaration's nominal_opacity and does not normalize TypeConnective::Instantiation to the template declaration before deciding. For Shape B to be fail-closed for future Secret<T>, the worker needs to resolve instantiation/template opacity or explicitly carry opacity onto all materialized instantiations, with a test proving an opaque generic instantiation fails closed.

CI disposition for current head 9c962b705528ea573d9ae34c1b033fab6baa01d7:

This is a real remaining blocker. ci and fmt passed, but the v3 job failed in the full integration suite before clippy/regen gates ran.

Failing tests:

  1. m2_field_access_binding_test::every_realized_reflection_record_field_has_a_binding

    • TypeRealization Declaration is missing a FieldBinding for nominal_opacity
    • Required fix: add the reflected field binding for Declaration.nominal_opacity wherever the Declaration reflection surface binds fields.
  2. m2_substrate_inhabitance_test::substrate_declares_expected_reflection_surface

    • actual fields now include nominal_opacity, expected list does not.
    • Required fix: update the expected reflected Declaration field list to include nominal_opacity in the canonical order.
  3. parse_stage4_prep::handwritten_parse_snapshot_matches_manifest

    • manifest drift only on src/v3/std/substrate.dag: old items=53 debug_bytes=114503 fnv=acfa5e48ad6d553e; new items=54 debug_bytes=116421 fnv=9edfe7ca138d3d2b.
    • Required fix: refresh the handwritten parse snapshot manifest for the intentional substrate.dag surface change.

This matches the carrier landing scope, not a DB-8 drift yet. Please push a worker-owned fix commit for the reflection binding/test/manifest updates, then rerun CI. Keep Modeling #858 readiness blocked until these are green and DB-8/regen gates also complete.

Verified — at HEAD bcd479357, concretize_decl_with_subst (infer.rs:3190) does set nominal_opacity: None on the derived Instantiation Declaration. This is intentional under the carrier-only re-scope.

Per the updated PR body and the re-scope decision at #869, "specialization / lowering opacity policy" is one of the four named work items in the dissolution follow-up PR (alongside fail-closed walker/descent, diagnostic-kind .dag authority, and std Secret<T> marking). Choosing carry-forward semantics here — clone-from-source vs. clone-from-template vs. union vs. strip — is policy that belongs in the same PR that lands the consumers which depend on it.

The carrier is dormant data at this PR: nothing reads nominal_opacity yet, so the explicit : None cannot silently strip a live signal. The dissolution PR owns the carry-forward semantics together with the enforcement that motivates them.

Current-head manager disposition for #900 (5cd4cf0fc905c0a991c6b35df0cba7acadc7f401):

Progress: the expected reflected Declaration field-list failure is fixed. Current v3 CI now fails on two remaining integration tests:

  1. m2_field_access_binding_test::every_realized_reflection_record_field_has_a_binding

    • still missing FieldBinding for Declaration.nominal_opacity.
  2. parse_stage4_prep::handwritten_parse_snapshot_matches_manifest

    • manifest is still stale for the intentional parse-surface changes. Current expected differences include src/v3/std/substrate.dag and also generated surface-size/hash movement for src/v3/spec/go.dag / src/v3/spec/rust.dag; refresh with the repo's ignored manifest-refresh path and verify the drift is exactly from the carrier/reflection changes.

New review findings are valid and blocking:

  • check_nominal_opacity_descent must not fail open on TypeConnective::Instantiation; resolve through the template declaration or otherwise normalize/carry opacity so future Secret<T> instantiations inherit the sealed boundary.
  • concretize_decl_with_subst and specialize_decl_for_lowering must not reset nominal_opacity to None when deriving/specializing declarations. Add a single explicit carry-forward/resolution policy and regression tests for inference and lower-time specialization.

Please push a worker-owned fix commit for the remaining reflection binding, manifest refresh, instantiation-template opacity handling, and specialization carry-forward policy. Keep Modeling #858 readiness blocked until CI is green and DB-8/regen gates complete.

The PR currently adds check_nominal_opacity_descent and a direct unit test, but no existing structural-walk/descent path is forced through that boundary; the PR body also says lenses can adopt it later. Shape B requires a fail-closed structural-walk consumer, not only an opt-in helper.

Resolved by re-scope to carrier-only staging at HEAD bcd479357. The opt-in helper this finding refers to (check_nominal_opacity_descent) and its associated Diagnostic::NominalOpacityViolation variant have been removed entirely from src/v3/compiler/src/:

$ grep -rn 'check_nominal_opacity_descent\\|NominalOpacityViolation' src/v3/compiler/src/ src/v3/compiler/tests/
(no results)

This PR now ships only the substrate carrier (NominalOpacity struct + Declaration.nominal_opacity optional field + Rust/Go TypeRealization). It is dormant data — no enforcement, no diagnostic, no walker. The fail-closed walker/descent + diagnostic-kind .dag authority + Secret<T> marking + specialization/lowering carry-forward policy are the explicit follow-up dissolution trigger named in the updated PR body.

The finding is correct about the previous head — there's no way to make an opt-in helper safe — and the carrier-only re-scope is the right answer: ship the carrier alone, then ship enforcement coherently in one PR with the consumer that motivates it.

Current manager disposition for #900 at head 1e86259c5b5ce08ef942c40b7dfaccd6c8c0fdd0:

The new API review blocker is valid: check_nominal_opacity_descent is still an opt-in helper/test, not enforced by an actual generic structural-walk/descent path. Shape B needs the fail-closed boundary to be on the path users/lenses actually use. Please wire the relevant descent API through it, or replace direct descent with a checked wrapper, and add a regression proving opaque declarations cannot be structurally walked without a permitted accessor.

Current CI state: fmt and the general ci job pass. The v3 job fails only in v3 tests (full suite) on parse_stage4_prep::handwritten_parse_snapshot_matches_manifest; clippy/regen/follow-on gates are skipped because that step fails first. The manifest still needs refresh for the intentional src/v3/std/substrate.dag, src/v3/spec/go.dag, and src/v3/spec/rust.dag surface/hash changes.

Prior carry-forward blockers remain part of the closeout unless the current branch has resolved them with tests: opacity must survive instantiation/template lookup, concretize_decl_with_subst, and specialize_decl_for_lowering. Keep #858 readiness blocked until the enforcement path, carry-forward policy, manifest refresh, DB-8, and CI gates are green.

1. Story of the diff

This PR adds a new substrate-level declaration fact for nominal opacity. The central shape is Declaration.nominal_opacity: Option<NominalOpacity> in src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs, mirrored into src/v3/std/substrate.dag, the Rust/Go target specs, bootstrap generation, and generated fixture DAGs. The intended semantics are that Secret<T>-style declarations can be sealed against generic structural descent except through explicit accessor declarations. The PR also adds a typed Diagnostic::NominalOpacityViolation, a helper check_nominal_opacity_descent, and a unit test proving that helper returns no diagnostic for permitted accessors and a diagnostic otherwise.

The concern is that the substrate carrier is landed as real authority, but the diff does not yet make the intended Secret fact live in the generated std DAG, and the new fact is silently dropped in declaration specialization/concretization paths. That turns the new opacity bit into something callers can observe in a synthetic unit test, but not something the compiler can rely on as a durable substrate invariant.

2. Invariant categories

  1. LAYER MODEL (substrate vs implementation).

Finding (BLOCKING) — The diff touches substrate directly: src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:219 adds pub nominal_opacity: Option<NominalOpacity>, and src/v3/std/substrate.dag:163 adds nominal_opacity: NominalOpacity?. The stated purpose is Secret<T> nominal opacity, but the generated bootstrapped Secret declaration still has nominal_opacity: None at src/v3/compiler/src/bootstrap_generated.rs:111:

Declaration { id: DeclarationId(103), name: Some("Secret".to_string()), ... refinement: None, nominal_opacity: None, ... }

Because check_nominal_opacity_descent immediately treats None as non-opaque via src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:1144 — let opacity = decl.nominal_opacity.as_ref()?; — the actual std Secret declaration remains transparent to this new mechanism. For a substrate PR, either the intended Secret authority needs to be populated in the same change, or this needs to be explicitly staged with a bounded dissolution trigger.

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

Finding (BLOCKING) — Facts-flow-forward / fail-closed is not preserved through derived declaration paths. In specialize_decl_for_lowering, derived declarations are initialized with src/v3/compiler/src/lower.rs:4779:

nominal_opacity: None,

and concretize_decl_with_subst does the same at src/v3/compiler/src/infer.rs:3190:

nominal_opacity: None,

These paths are deriving fresh declarations from existing declaration structure; if a nominal-opaque generic declaration is specialized or concretized, the opacity fact is erased and downstream code sees a plausible transparent declaration rather than either the propagated opacity carrier or a typed failure to remap accessors. That is exactly the kind of silent fact drop the modeling discipline is meant to prevent.

  1. CODING.md.

Compliant — The new failure shape is a typed diagnostic carrier rather than string probing: src/v3/compiler/src/diagnostics.rs:206-211 adds Diagnostic::NominalOpacityViolation { declaration, accessor, span, fixes }, and the renderer/test-runner match arms are updated exhaustively.

  1. TESTING.md.

Finding (BLOCKING, because it covers a substrate invariant) — The added unit test proves only the helper on a synthetic declaration: src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:3769 sets nominal_opacity: Some(NominalOpacity { ... }) on "opaque_under_test". It does not prove the intended live contract for bootstrapped Secret, which is still generated with nominal_opacity: None at src/v3/compiler/src/bootstrap_generated.rs:111, nor does it cover the specialization/concretization fact-drop paths above. For this substrate change, the regression should include at least one behavior test showing the std Secret carrier is present and that a derived/specialized opaque declaration remains opaque or fails closed.

  1. LOCKED DESIGN DECISIONS.

N/A — The diff does not edit a thesis/design file marked locked or explicitly diverge from a locked decision; the concerns above are live substrate/modeling issues in the changed code.

  1. TRACKED vs UNTRACKED DEBT.

Finding (BLOCKING) — The helper is explicitly described as future-call-site machinery: src/v3/compiler/src/dag.rs:1136-1137 says it is “Designed to be called from generic structural-walk lenses at the descent boundary.” If the intended full enforcement is deferred, this is a scaffold, but the diff does not give the scaffold a bound or dissolution trigger. As landed, the new substrate field, helper, and diagnostic can coexist indefinitely without actual generic walkers being forced through the check.

3. Verdict

REQUEST_CHANGES

The PR adds the right kind of substrate carrier and typed diagnostic shape, but the live std Secret declaration is still unmarked, derived declarations erase the new fact, and the enforcement helper is not wired or tracked as a bounded bridge. Those are substrate-level issues, so I would block until the carrier is made authoritative end-to-end or explicitly staged with a dissolution trigger and tests that pin the intended contract.

Current CI disposition for head 505e419:

Failing items:

  1. extdeps_rust_primitives_loader_test::dag_new_exposes_std_unicode_charclass

    • panic: std.unicode::CharClass must load in Dag::new()
  2. extdeps_rust_primitives_loader_test::rust_pilot_primitives_value_body_is_structural_list

    • rust_pilot_primitives.value_body is still ValueBody::Unparsed instead of ValueBody::List
  3. parse_stage4_prep::handwritten_parse_snapshot_matches_manifest

    • manifest is stale: src/v3/compiler/tokenize.dag is checked in with fnv 9a7718edd277aa93, but current generated expectation is 6a375f3c832b2af8. The manifest left/right also reflects current main sizes for go/rust/substrate.

Required next step is exactly the host-side generated refresh you identified: run the bootstrap regen path against current main+branch contents, include the updated generated files and parse_corpus_manifest.txt, then rerun fmt/ci/v3/self_host_ratchet. Keep carrier-only staging scope and keep #858 blocked.

Absorbs main's recent substrate additions (std.unicode CharClass,
ValueBody list substrate, extdeps typed-primitive structural gaps) that
were dropped when the prior conflict-marker fix restored generated
outputs to the f363ffb baseline. Verified locally: the three
previously-failing v3 tests (dag_new_exposes_std_unicode_charclass,
rust_pilot_primitives_value_body_is_structural_list,
handwritten_parse_snapshot_matches_manifest) now pass.

Findings (if any)

  • No diff available in this environment. The path given as the worktree (/session-home/.local/share/gunbc-review/worktrees/pr-900-afbf441b-1) is not a git repository (no .git), and it only contains wip/chatgpt_reviewer.dag and tools/regen_v3.sh—not the PR’s sources. git diff origin/main...HEAD cannot run here.
  • External patch fetch failed. A request for https://github.com/gunb-ai/gunbc/pull/900.patch returned 404 (likely private or unreachable from this host), so the change set could not be recovered another way.
  • Per your rules, I cannot cite file:line from a diff I don’t have, so no invariant- or style-based findings are grounded in the required evidence.

I did read the rubric from the pinned context paths (INVARIANTS.md, docs/modeling-discipline.md, CODING.md, TESTING.md) as requested.

Verdict

REQUEST_CHANGES — procedural, not on PR content. The review as specified (diff-anchored, principle-backed) is blocked until a checkout that includes git history vs origin/main or a supplied unified diff of origin/main...HEAD is available in the workspace. Once the real diff is present, the same review can be completed in a few minutes.

Exploratory (optional): The session transcript in this environment mentioned NominalOpacity / permitted_accessors: List<DeclarationRef> and a convention debate vs DeclarationId—that is not in this worktree and is not treated as a finding; it’s only a reminder to re-check that question when the actual substrate.dag hunk is visible.

Verdict: APPROVE

No findings. The diff adds a narrow NominalOpacity substrate carrier plus generated/spec reflection plumbing, and the scaffold is documented with bounded follow-up enforcement and a dissolution trigger before Secret<T> graduation. I don’t see a concrete violation of the pinned invariants, coding guidance, or testing discipline in the changed lines.

* fix(test): fold B5 Loop closure receipt into m1_substrate_test

SG-0 census ratchet forbids new hand-authored .rs files. Move the
every_loop_node_originates_from_recursive_function_lowering test (and the
LoopNode/LoopBound import + two helper fns) into the existing
m1_substrate_test.rs and drop the standalone file + its integration.rs
registration. Behavior unchanged.

* docs: correct B5 receipt file path in synthesis doc (m1_substrate_test, not standalone file)

* docs: mark ROADMAP loop-emission row resolved + correct synthesis cite

Codex BLOCKING on be4a6ab: ROADMAP.md still listed the loop-emission
semantic invariant as open debt while the synthesis doc declared it
resolved — tracker-authority mismatch.

- ROADMAP.md:436: rewrite the row as RESOLVED 2026-04-27 with PR cite,
  audit summary (two production sites in lower.rs), receipt location
  (m1_substrate_test.rs), and marker-retired note.
- synthesis-doc §3 line 155: fix the receipt path
  (loop_construction_closure_test.rs → m1_substrate_test.rs after the
  SG-0 fold).

* fix(test): split global vs fixture-scoped Loop closure assertions

Codex BLOCKING on db7b773: previous test mixed a global all-Dag closure
check with fixture-only variant claims, so bootstrap loops could mask the
fixture-coverage claim.

Split into two phases:
- Global: every Behavior::Loop in the Dag (fixture + bootstrap) satisfies
  the recursive-function-lowering signature (loop.output is a Bind value
  port + Descent cluster id resolves). This is the closure invariant.
- Fixture-scoped: filter loops by span.file == fixture file before claiming
  both LoopBound variants are produced by THIS fixture. Bootstrap loops are
  excluded so the variant claim is mechanically about the fixture's
  recursive functions.

* post-merge: drop superseded artifacts; correct ROADMAP B5 receipt cite

The parallel B5 lane landed `r2_b5_loop_construction_closure_test.rs` on
main with a more rigorous receipt (substring push-site ratchet + per-fixture
DAG walk + Origin::Accumulated provenance). The harvest table in this PR is
also being landed via aggregate #949.

Drop:
- `docs/audit/w-c1-followup-harvest-2026-04-27.md` (canonical surface is
  #949).
- The m1_substrate_test additions (auto-reverted via merge --theirs;
  superseded by the standalone r2_b5_loop_construction_closure_test.rs on
  main).

Keep:
- `ROADMAP.md` row marking loop-emission RESOLVED, with citation rewritten
  to point at the actual landed receipt file (r2_b5_…) instead of the
  retired m1_substrate_test cite.

  (c0cc8b2) noted as pre-cascade footprint queued for cleanup
  wave per design-emission-model.md option (c).
- **Impossible-Bugs:** all 3 main implementations LANDED pre-spawn
  (nested-optional flatten #890 + #962 follow-ups; Int/Int totality-
  by-omission first slice #969; unenumerated effects lens landing
  #971). Day-1 work is class-close completion + sibling totalization
  dispatch (indexing/quotient/remainder), not initial implementation.
- **Pure Bootstrap:** kernel_algebra_profile substrate met via #1017
  + #1068 (consumer plumbing now the remaining R2 work, dispatchable
  Day-1); T-PB-Runtime ExecuteCommand typed-outcome hardening (#1049)

  for R3 lens_apply.rs retirement gate.

Per gpt-5-5-pro meta-review on PR #1126: dissolves the recurring
"non-live authority consumed as live" pattern that surfaced 5+ times
during PR #1078 + #1126 review loops (codex tooling false-positives
naming non-existent files / sections; cursor-flagged single-authority
drift on Goal numbering + R3 continuation count).

v1 covers 4 of gpt-5-5-pro's 5 questions:

- **Q1 — cited file existence** — extracts markdown links from each
  brief, resolves relative paths, fails closed if any cited file
  doesn't exist on disk.
- **Q2 — cited section anchor existence** — for `path#anchor` links,
  verifies the anchor matches a slugified heading in the target file.
- **Q4 — `LANDED via #N` reachability** — two-stage check: (a) fast
  `git log --grep="(#N)"` for normal merge subjects, (b) fall back to
  `gh pr view` for squash-merges that drop the suffix (caught a real
  case for PR #900). Verifies merge SHA is `git merge-base
  --is-ancestor HEAD`.
- **Q5 — cross-brief projection consistency** — extracts manager/lane
  counts and verifies all briefs that mention a projection agree both
  cross-brief AND with canonical values from r2-structure.md /
  r3-structure.md (7 standing managers, 6 other managers, 10 R3
  lanes, 7 of 10 Evaluator-gated). Catches drift like "5 R2-archiving
  managers" vs "all 6 other managers".

Q3 (controlled status vocabulary) deferred to v2 — too subjective for
a mechanical check; tracked in script header as next narrowing.

**Self-test** (`scripts/test-check-manager-brief-authority.sh`):
7 contract assertions — negative cases for each of Q1/Q2/Q4/Q5 (×2)
+ fail-closed-on-missing-brief + positive case. Mirrors the
`test-check-release-doc-authority.sh` pattern.

**Wiring:**
- Makefile: `manager-brief-authority-check` + `-test` targets;
  `verify` runs the check.
- CI workflow: both check + self-test wired as named steps; check
  receives `GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}` for the gh API
  fallback in Q4.

**SIGPIPE under pipefail caveat documented inline:** `grep -q .` on a
piped `git log` causes pipefail to report failure (grep exits early,
git log gets SIGPIPE 141). Workaround: capture output and test
`-z`/`-n`. Pinned in Q4 implementation comment.

Closes the convergence move gpt-5-5-pro proposed; future review loops
that hit the same "non-live authority" class get caught at CI rather
than reviewer-by-reviewer prose iteration.

Per gpt-5-5-pro APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS on PR #1126 (sha:91b5274f →
6dafaec): Q4 silently missed title-case "Landed via #N" claims.

**Finding 1 (Q4 case sensitivity):** live briefs use three case forms
of "landed via #N":
  - UPPERCASE — emphasized status-table claims (most common)
  - lowercase — inline prose ("landed via #900", "landed via #937", ...)
  - title-case — sentence-leading headings (r2-release-manager.md:113
    "Landed via #1078:")
The pre-fix regex `(LANDED|landed) via` missed the title-case form,
silently passing any future unique `Landed via #N` claim. Fix:
`grep -oEi 'landed via #[0-9]+'` (case-insensitive flag).

**Finding 2 (Q4 self-test gap):** Q4 negative fixture used UPPERCASE
"LANDED via #88888888"; positive fixture had no landed-PR claim at
all. Title-case wasn't covered. Fixes:

- Added `test_negative_q4_unreachable_pr_titlecase` using "Landed via
  #88888887" — verifies case-insensitive Q4 catches title-case.
- Updated `write_clean_briefs` clean fixture to include
  "Substrate landed via #999" (lowercase, matching real brief
  format). Q4 positive path is now non-vacuous: tmp git repo seeds
  "(#999)" merge subject so this resolves cleanly.

**Finding 3 (Q2 prose deferral note)**: STALE — Q2-prose was
implemented in 97affdb (2 commits before this review). The reviewer
cited line numbers from before the implementation; current code at
`scripts/check-manager-brief-authority.sh:121` says "Two forms covered"
not "v2 candidate". No action needed.

Self-test now: 8 contract assertions (6 negative + 1 positive +
1 fail-closed-on-missing-brief).

* WIP: Gunbc PM

* docs(briefs): align Substrate Produces + Release R2-close acceptance

Per gpt-5-5-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1126 (sha:a9285fce). Two valid
findings on coordination-contract internal consistency:

1. **Substrate Produces list omitted ValueBody::Map → PB signal.**
   The deliverables table at line 94 named ValueBody::Map as an R2
   unblocker for PB's kernel_algebra_profile mirror dissolution, but
   the cross-program "Produces" section listed 5 signals and did not
   include this one. Same dependency represented in two places with
   different authority.

   Fix: add ValueBody::Map carrier read-path/API + arrow-body
   evaluation as the 6th produced signal targeted at PB Manager;
   update count from 5 to 6 (also in Reporting-cadence line 150).
   Remove the "Adjacent territory" note about kernel_algebra_profile
   being a future sub-lane — substrate already landed via #1017+#1068.

2. **Release R2-close acceptance gate excluded PB from close criterion.**
   The brief's "Consumes" section correctly named all 6 other managers
   including PB, but the r2_close_signal_to_director_authored gate at
   line 103 used "5 R2-archiving managers" (Substrate-prereq /
   Modeling / Grounding / Impossible-Bugs / Evaluator) — could fire
   the R2-close signal while PB's R2-scope lanes (Tier 3 mirror
   dissolutions + kernel_algebra_profile consumer plumbing) are
   still open.

   Fix: gate becomes "all 6 other managers' R2-scope lanes complete"
   with explicit lane-set listed per manager. Distinguish R2-scope
   completion from manager-archives (Modeling/Impossible-Bugs archive;
   Substrate/PB continue into R3 with R3-scoped lanes — those don't
   gate R2 close).

Both are P2 single-authority alignments; no scope change.

  `git log --grep="(#N)"` for normal merge subjects, (b) fall back to
  `gh pr view` for squash-merges that drop the suffix (caught a real
  case for PR #900). Verifies merge SHA is `git merge-base
  --is-ancestor HEAD`.
- **Q5 — cross-brief projection consistency** — extracts manager/lane
  counts and verifies all briefs that mention a projection agree both
  cross-brief AND with canonical values from r2-structure.md /
  r3-structure.md (7 standing managers, 6 other managers, 10 R3
  lanes, 7 of 10 Evaluator-gated). Catches drift like "5 R2-archiving
  managers" vs "all 6 other managers".

Q3 (controlled status vocabulary) deferred to v2 — too subjective for
a mechanical check; tracked in script header as next narrowing.

**Self-test** (`scripts/test-check-manager-brief-authority.sh`):
7 contract assertions — negative cases for each of Q1/Q2/Q4/Q5 (×2)
+ fail-closed-on-missing-brief + positive case. Mirrors the
`test-check-release-doc-authority.sh` pattern.

**Wiring:**
- Makefile: `manager-brief-authority-check` + `-test` targets;
  `verify` runs the check.
- CI workflow: both check + self-test wired as named steps; check
  receives `GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}` for the gh API
  fallback in Q4.

**SIGPIPE under pipefail caveat documented inline:** `grep -q .` on a
piped `git log` causes pipefail to report failure (grep exits early,
git log gets SIGPIPE 141). Workaround: capture output and test
`-z`/`-n`. Pinned in Q4 implementation comment.

Closes the convergence move gpt-5-5-pro proposed; future review loops
that hit the same "non-live authority" class get caught at CI rather
than reviewer-by-reviewer prose iteration.

* fix(scripts): manager-brief Q4 — gh-first for CI shallow-clone compat

CI failed on the first run of the checker because the workflow uses
fetch-depth=1 (shallow clone), so the Q4 fall-back stage's
git-log --grep="(#N)" can't see merge history. The two-stage check
worked locally because git log had full history; in CI it found
nothing on either stage.

Restructure Q4 to gh-first:

- **Stage 1 (primary):** gh pr view N --json state — returns MERGED
  for actually-merged PRs regardless of clone depth or squash-merge
  subject variance. CI passes GH_TOKEN automatically.
- **Stage 2 (fallback):** git log --grep — kept for offline dev /
  auth-blocked environments. In CI with fetch-depth=1 this stage
  finds nothing; that's why Stage 1 is primary.

Reasoning: "is this PR actually merged" is what we want to verify;
gh state=MERGED answers it directly. The previous git-log+ancestor
check was defense-in-depth, but actually fragile in shallow clones
which is the CI default.

* fix(scripts): manager-brief check — set -e + return interaction

Per claude-opus-4-7 review on PR #1126: three non-blocking findings
addressed.

1. **set -e + return non-zero**: the per-brief driver loop used
   `check_q1_file_existence "$brief"; rc=$?` — under set -euo
   pipefail, a function returning non-zero is treated as a failed
   command and exits the script before the accumulator runs. Result
   was "stop at first failing brief," not "report all violations in
   one pass" as intended.

   Fix: use `|| rc=$?` form (with explicit `rc=0` reset). This
   keeps set -e from firing on expected-non-zero returns while still
   capturing the count.

2. **Q2 doc/code mismatch**: header comment promised both
   `path#anchor` markdown form AND `§"section name"` prose form.
   Implementation only handled markdown. Trim the comment to
   match the code; track prose-form in v2 follow-up alongside
   Q3 status-vocabulary as next narrowing.

3. **Q5 pattern overlap (exploratory)**: claude-opus-4-7 flagged
   that "standing managers" might substring-match "standing R2
   managers". Empirical check shows it doesn't (POSIX regex
   requires the exact "standing managers" sequence; "R2 " breaks
   the match). Documented inline; no pattern change needed.

8-bit return-code truncation noted by reviewer is theoretical at
current scale (briefs typically have <10 violations) and is now
moot since the global `violations` accumulator is plain bash
arithmetic; only the per-function `return` is uint8-bounded.

* fix(scripts): manager-brief Q4 — explicit --repo for CI gh detection

CI failed Q4 even after gh-first restructure: actions/checkout@v4's
shallow clone exposes the remote in a form 'gh pr view' doesn't always
auto-detect, so the stage-1 gh call returned empty (no error message
in v1 because stderr was redirected to /dev/null) and the stage-2
git-log fallback also failed (shallow clone has no merge history).

Three fixes in this commit:

1. **Derive REPO_SLUG from `git config remote.origin.url`** at script
   start. Falls back to "gunb-ai/gunbc" if origin isn't readable
   (self-test runs in tmpdir with no remote).

2. **Pass `--repo "$REPO_SLUG"` explicitly to `gh pr view`** so it
   doesn't have to infer from the cwd's git remote.

3. **Capture gh stderr** to a temp file and surface it in the
   violation diagnostic. If gh is auth-failing or rate-limited,
   the violation message now shows why instead of looking like
   "PR doesn't exist."

Both checker + self-test still pass locally. CI should now succeed.

* fix(ci): grant pull-requests:read for manager-brief authority check

The check uses `gh pr view --json state` to verify "LANDED via #N"
claims map to MERGED PRs. Default GITHUB_TOKEN scopes only include
contents:read; pull-request access fails with:

  GraphQL: Resource not accessible by integration (repository.pullRequest)

Surfaced when the script's stderr-capture fix (ea33aeb) made the
actual error message visible — diagnostic improvement paid off
immediately.

* WIP: Gunbc PM

* fix(scripts): manager-brief checker — markdown-bold + heading-strip + Q3 trigger

Per gpt-5-5-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1126 (sha:ea33aeb9). Three
findings — one BLOCKING (Q5 was ceremonial on its load-bearing
projection), one secondary (heading-strip glob bug), one coverage gap.

1. **Q5 markdown-bold mismatch (BLOCKING).** Live briefs use
   `Names this manager one of **7** standing R2 managers` — markdown
   emphasis around the count. The pre-fix regex `[0-9]+ standing R2
   managers` required a bare leading digit, so it matched zero claims
   on every brief. Counts_seen stayed empty → "0 counts seen → silent
   OK" branch fired → check passed ceremonially. A future drift to
   `**6** standing R2 managers` would have been invisible.

   Fix: regex now optionally accepts `**` before and after the digit:
   `\*?\*?[0-9]+\*?\*? standing R2 managers`. Extraction strips
   asterisks (`tr -d '*'`) before parsing. Verified on live briefs:

   $ grep -oE '\*?\*?[0-9]+\*?\*? standing R2 managers' docs/briefs/r2-*-manager.md
   docs/briefs/r2-evaluator-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-grounding-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-impossible-bugs-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-modeling-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-pure-bootstrap-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-release-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-substrate-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers

   Now actually catches all 7 briefs' projections.

2. **Heading-strip glob bug (Q2 secondary).** `${heading##\#* }` is
   a Bash glob that strips through the LAST space, so
   "## Goal 7 — Evaluator XL" becomes "XL" instead of "Goal 7 —
   Evaluator XL". Multi-word heading anchors silently false-fail.

   Fix: introduced `strip_heading_marker()` helper using sed regex
   `^#{1,6}[[:space:]]+` for accurate prefix-only stripping.

3. **Self-test fixture format mismatch (coverage gap).** Self-test
   used bare-digit form ("7 standing R2 managers"); live briefs use
   markdown-bold ("**7** standing R2 managers"). Fixture proved Q5
   for a format the live docs don't use, masking finding 1.

   Fix: updated all clean + drift fixtures in self-test to use
   markdown-bold form. Verifies Q5 catches the actual format.

4. **Q3 dissolution trigger (per debt-tracking discipline).** Previous
   "v2; the next narrowing opportunity" was a future bucket without
   a checkable trigger. Replaced with concrete trigger: "first
   reviewer-flagged status-string drift class that Q1/Q2/Q4/Q5
   don't catch." Until that surfaces, status vocabulary is captured
   indirectly via Q5 count-projection consistency.

Local checker + self-test still pass after fixes; Q5 now actually
fires on live brief content rather than silently passing ceremonial.

* fix(scripts+briefs): manager-brief Q2 prose-form check + align 7 citations

Per gpt-5-5-pro BLOCKING on PR #1126 (sha:91b5274fc): Q2 explicitly
excluded prose §"section name" citations, but live briefs use those
for load-bearing INVARIANTS / r2-structure / design authority claims.
The exclusion left 12 real authority drifts uncheckable.

**Implements Q2-prose** (in addition to Q2-markdown-anchor):

For each `§"quoted section"` or `§AnchorToken` in a brief:

1. Compute the prefix BEFORE this citation (running prefix; the bug
   in v0 was using before-first-§ for every iteration, so subsequent
   citations on the same line resolved against the first link's
   target instead of their own).
2. Find the most recent markdown link `[text](path)` in the prefix —
   that's the cited file. Fall back to bare `<NAME>.md` token via
   `resolve_authority_file()` (tries `$ROOT/`, `$ROOT/docs/`,
   `$ROOT/docs/thesis/`, `$ROOT/docs/briefs/`).
3. `grep -F` for the section text in the cited file. Permissive
   substring match (vs Q2-markdown's slug match) — accepts
   paraphrased section names while still catching the load-bearing
   "section deleted" failure mode.

**Caught 12 real drifts on first run** — all now fixed:

- r2-evaluator-manager.md: §"Goal 7 — Evaluator XL" + §"Evaluator
  Manager (added 2026-04-28 as Goal 7)" → §"Evaluator Manager
  (added 2026-04-28 amendment)" (matches r2-structure.md:159 actual
  heading)
- r2-grounding-manager.md: §"Tier 1 — Structural correctness —
  Grounding completeness" → §"Tier 1 — Structural correctness"
  (matches THESIS.md:168 actual prose)
- r2-impossible-bugs-manager.md (×2): §"R2 manager continuation"
  → §"Manager structure" (matches r3-structure.md:103 actual heading)
- r2-impossible-bugs-manager.md: §Q1-Q3 + §Q6 → §Q1, §Q2, §Q3 + §Q6
  (range citation didn't match anything literal; expand to discrete)
- r2-release-manager.md (×2): §"R2 manager continuation"
  → §"Manager structure"
- r2-release-manager.md (×2): §v2-guardrail-requirement-3
  → §"v2 guardrail requirements" (matches r2-structure.md:490 body)
- r2-substrate-manager.md: §"R3 lane structure" → §"Lane structure"
  (matches r3-structure.md:86 actual heading)

Local checker + self-test still pass after fixes.

Reinforces gpt-5-5-pro's earlier meta-observation: a checker that
names a discipline but doesn't enforce it on the live format is
documented cheating. Q2-prose closes that gap; the briefs' authority
citations now have to match section text that actually exists.

* chore(scripts): manager-brief — mktemp gh-stderr + Q1 false-pos trigger

Per claude-opus-4-7 APPROVE-with-exploratory-observations on PR #1126
(sha:91b5274f). Two non-blocking cleanups landed.

1. **gh-stderr capture: $$ → mktemp.** Previous form used
   `/tmp/gh-stderr-$$` which is fine in CI but a crashed run on a
   shared dev box could leak the file. `mktemp` gives a unique path
   + paired cleanup in scope.

2. **Q1 false-positive trigger documented.** Q1 currently treats
   every `](path)` as a filesystem reference. Markdown reference-
   style link definitions and code-block examples containing
   `](foo)` would false-positive. No briefs use either form today;
   added DISSOLUTION TRIGGER comment naming the condition that
   would force context-aware extraction (skip fenced code blocks
   + reference definitions).

The third observation (squash-merge for the WIP: Gunbc PM commits)
is a merge-time decision; PR-level chore.

* fix(scripts): manager-brief Q4 case-insensitive + title-case test

Per gpt-5-5-pro APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS on PR #1126 (sha:91b5274f →
6dafaec): Q4 silently missed title-case "Landed via #N" claims.

**Finding 1 (Q4 case sensitivity):** live briefs use three case forms
of "landed via #N":
  - UPPERCASE — emphasized status-table claims (most common)
  - lowercase — inline prose ("landed via #900", "landed via #937", ...)
  - title-case — sentence-leading headings (r2-release-manager.md:113
    "Landed via #1078:")
The pre-fix regex `(LANDED|landed) via` missed the title-case form,
silently passing any future unique `Landed via #N` claim. Fix:
`grep -oEi 'landed via #[0-9]+'` (case-insensitive flag).

**Finding 2 (Q4 self-test gap):** Q4 negative fixture used UPPERCASE
"LANDED via #88888888"; positive fixture had no landed-PR claim at
all. Title-case wasn't covered. Fixes:

- Added `test_negative_q4_unreachable_pr_titlecase` using "Landed via
  #88888887" — verifies case-insensitive Q4 catches title-case.
- Updated `write_clean_briefs` clean fixture to include
  "Substrate landed via #999" (lowercase, matching real brief
  format). Q4 positive path is now non-vacuous: tmp git repo seeds
  "(#999)" merge subject so this resolves cleanly.

**Finding 3 (Q2 prose deferral note)**: STALE — Q2-prose was
implemented in 97affdb (2 commits before this review). The reviewer
cited line numbers from before the implementation; current code at
`scripts/check-manager-brief-authority.sh:121` says "Two forms covered"
not "v2 candidate". No action needed.

Self-test now: 8 contract assertions (6 negative + 1 positive +
1 fail-closed-on-missing-brief).

* docs(briefs): refresh 6 R2 manager briefs post-#1078 merge

Aligns all 6 existing R2 manager briefs with #1078's locked design
decisions and structural cascade:

- Substrate Manager: adds T-Substrate-Lens-Primitive sub-lane (Q6+Q7+Q8
  locks) + PR-PreF Interval<D> consolidation + R3 T-CostLens-Composition
  continuation (Director cascade Item 3); references INVARIANTS §P1
  substrate-fact-introduction procedure + Q3 Cost<Unit> primitives.
- Grounding Manager: engine-reframe to 11 lanes (5 substrate-completion
  lanes replace prior single Engine: Coercion-Fold + LanguageSpec +
  Lifetime-Analyzer + Diagnostic + CrossTarget-Meta); consumes PR-F
  through PR-J cadence; PR #989 footprint queued for cleanup wave.
- Modeling Manager: int-lit item now consumes PR-PreF Interval<D> via
  Q1 lock; references INVARIANTS procedure for substrate-gap signaling.
- Pure Bootstrap Manager: adds R3 continuation lanes (T-LensProducer-
  Retirement XL with 3 internal sub-gates per Director cascade Item 8;
  T-FixedPoint; T-Tier3-Dissolution; 3 distributed bridge retirements
  per Director cascade Item 4 — distribute work, centralize ledger).
- Impossible-Bugs Manager: archives at R2 close per Director cascade;
  post-R2 emergent classes route to Substrate Manager continuation.
- Release Manager: 6→7 manager count; closure ledger spans all 6 other
  managers + sub-gate progress for T-LensProducer-Retirement; structural-
  acceptance-per-lane-close discipline (demo IS structural gate);
  thesis-claim mapping landed via #1078, refresh authority lives here;
  v2 release-doc-authority guardrail follow-up added as next narrow PR.

All 6 briefs now include: structural acceptance .dag TestClaim gates,
locked-design-decisions-consumed section, INVARIANTS §P1 procedure
references, and option-(c)-hybrid timing notes where R1-close-relevant.

* docs(briefs): R2 manager-brief status refresh against landed PRs

Pre-spawn implementation work has progressed materially while #1078
was in flight; managers spawning today would otherwise dispatch
against work that's already landed. Refresh per-manager status
tables to reflect current main:

- **Substrate:** ValueBody::Map landed (#1017 + #1068 tightening);
  NominalOpacity fail-closed field-projection enforcement (#937);
  B4.8 Phase-2 site dissolution landed (#1069); B4.2 first-consumer
  wiring landed; T-Cost-Dimension fail-closed precedent (#1003).
- **Grounding:** Rust IntegerRangeFact mirror dissolved (#1005);
  Python primitives.dag landed (#1080); Go primitives tranche 1
  + additional (ac765ce + #1046); T-Ground-Engine Phase 2 slice 1
  (c0cc8b2) noted as pre-cascade footprint queued for cleanup
  wave per design-emission-model.md option (c).
- **Impossible-Bugs:** all 3 main implementations LANDED pre-spawn
  (nested-optional flatten #890 + #962 follow-ups; Int/Int totality-
  by-omission first slice #969; unenumerated effects lens landing
  #971). Day-1 work is class-close completion + sibling totalization
  dispatch (indexing/quotient/remainder), not initial implementation.
- **Pure Bootstrap:** kernel_algebra_profile substrate met via #1017
  + #1068 (consumer plumbing now the remaining R2 work, dispatchable
  Day-1); T-PB-Runtime ExecuteCommand typed-outcome hardening (#1049)
  + T-PB-B boundary coverage (#1082) advanced PB-Runtime foundation
  for R3 lens_apply.rs retirement gate.
- **Modeling:** Secret<T> producer side substantially advanced
  (#900 carrier + #937 fail-closed enforcement); tokenizer charclass
  scanner-order retype landed pre-cascade (242c65d); SourceFiltering
  canonical authority precedent (#1004).
- **Release:** initial closure-ledger snapshot now reflects all
  pre-spawn landings (Impossible-Bugs/Substrate/Ground/PB-Runtime).

Evaluator brief unchanged — new lane added 2026-04-28; nothing
landed yet (gated on PR-A through PR-E design lock cadence).

* docs(briefs): align Substrate Produces + Release R2-close acceptance

Per gpt-5-5-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1126 (sha:a9285fce). Two valid
findings on coordination-contract internal consistency:

1. **Substrate Produces list omitted ValueBody::Map → PB signal.**
   The deliverables table at line 94 named ValueBody::Map as an R2
   unblocker for PB's kernel_algebra_profile mirror dissolution, but
   the cross-program "Produces" section listed 5 signals and did not
   include this one. Same dependency represented in two places with
   different authority.

   Fix: add ValueBody::Map carrier read-path/API + arrow-body
   evaluation as the 6th produced signal targeted at PB Manager;
   update count from 5 to 6 (also in Reporting-cadence line 150).
   Remove the "Adjacent territory" note about kernel_algebra_profile
   being a future sub-lane — substrate already landed via #1017+#1068.

2. **Release R2-close acceptance gate excluded PB from close criterion.**
   The brief's "Consumes" section correctly named all 6 other managers
   including PB, but the r2_close_signal_to_director_authored gate at
   line 103 used "5 R2-archiving managers" (Substrate-prereq /
   Modeling / Grounding / Impossible-Bugs / Evaluator) — could fire
   the R2-close signal while PB's R2-scope lanes (Tier 3 mirror
   dissolutions + kernel_algebra_profile consumer plumbing) are
   still open.

   Fix: gate becomes "all 6 other managers' R2-scope lanes complete"
   with explicit lane-set listed per manager. Distinguish R2-scope
   completion from manager-archives (Modeling/Impossible-Bugs archive;
   Substrate/PB continue into R3 with R3-scoped lanes — those don't
   gate R2 close).

Both are P2 single-authority alignments; no scope change.

* feat(scripts): manager-brief authority consumer + self-test

Per gpt-5-5-pro meta-review on PR #1126: dissolves the recurring
"non-live authority consumed as live" pattern that surfaced 5+ times
during PR #1078 + #1126 review loops (codex tooling false-positives
naming non-existent files / sections; cursor-flagged single-authority
drift on Goal numbering + R3 continuation count).

v1 covers 4 of gpt-5-5-pro's 5 questions:

- **Q1 — cited file existence** — extracts markdown links from each
  brief, resolves relative paths, fails closed if any cited file
  doesn't exist on disk.
- **Q2 — cited section anchor existence** — for `path#anchor` links,
  verifies the anchor matches a slugified heading in the target file.
- **Q4 — `LANDED via #N` reachability** — two-stage check: (a) fast
  `git log --grep="(#N)"` for normal merge subjects, (b) fall back to
  `gh pr view` for squash-merges that drop the suffix (caught a real
  case for PR #900). Verifies merge SHA is `git merge-base
  --is-ancestor HEAD`.
- **Q5 — cross-brief projection consistency** — extracts manager/lane
  counts and verifies all briefs that mention a projection agree both
  cross-brief AND with canonical values from r2-structure.md /
  r3-structure.md (7 standing managers, 6 other managers, 10 R3
  lanes, 7 of 10 Evaluator-gated). Catches drift like "5 R2-archiving
  managers" vs "all 6 other managers".

Q3 (controlled status vocabulary) deferred to v2 — too subjective for
a mechanical check; tracked in script header as next narrowing.

**Self-test** (`scripts/test-check-manager-brief-authority.sh`):
7 contract assertions — negative cases for each of Q1/Q2/Q4/Q5 (×2)
+ fail-closed-on-missing-brief + positive case. Mirrors the
`test-check-release-doc-authority.sh` pattern.

**Wiring:**
- Makefile: `manager-brief-authority-check` + `-test` targets;
  `verify` runs the check.
- CI workflow: both check + self-test wired as named steps; check
  receives `GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}` for the gh API
  fallback in Q4.

**SIGPIPE under pipefail caveat documented inline:** `grep -q .` on a
piped `git log` causes pipefail to report failure (grep exits early,
git log gets SIGPIPE 141). Workaround: capture output and test
`-z`/`-n`. Pinned in Q4 implementation comment.

Closes the convergence move gpt-5-5-pro proposed; future review loops
that hit the same "non-live authority" class get caught at CI rather
than reviewer-by-reviewer prose iteration.

* fix(scripts): manager-brief check — set -e + return interaction

Per claude-opus-4-7 review on PR #1126: three non-blocking findings
addressed.

1. **set -e + return non-zero**: the per-brief driver loop used
   `check_q1_file_existence "$brief"; rc=$?` — under set -euo
   pipefail, a function returning non-zero is treated as a failed
   command and exits the script before the accumulator runs. Result
   was "stop at first failing brief," not "report all violations in
   one pass" as intended.

   Fix: use `|| rc=$?` form (with explicit `rc=0` reset). This
   keeps set -e from firing on expected-non-zero returns while still
   capturing the count.

2. **Q2 doc/code mismatch**: header comment promised both
   `path#anchor` markdown form AND `§"section name"` prose form.
   Implementation only handled markdown. Trim the comment to
   match the code; track prose-form in v2 follow-up alongside
   Q3 status-vocabulary as next narrowing.

3. **Q5 pattern overlap (exploratory)**: claude-opus-4-7 flagged
   that "standing managers" might substring-match "standing R2
   managers". Empirical check shows it doesn't (POSIX regex
   requires the exact "standing managers" sequence; "R2 " breaks
   the match). Documented inline; no pattern change needed.

8-bit return-code truncation noted by reviewer is theoretical at
current scale (briefs typically have <10 violations) and is now
moot since the global `violations` accumulator is plain bash
arithmetic; only the per-function `return` is uint8-bounded.

in v1 because stderr was redirected to /dev/null) and the stage-2
git-log fallback also failed (shallow clone has no merge history).

Three fixes in this commit:

1. **Derive REPO_SLUG from `git config remote.origin.url`** at script
   start. Falls back to "gunb-ai/gunbc" if origin isn't readable
   (self-test runs in tmpdir with no remote).

2. **Pass `--repo "$REPO_SLUG"` explicitly to `gh pr view`** so it
   doesn't have to infer from the cwd's git remote.

3. **Capture gh stderr** to a temp file and surface it in the
   violation diagnostic. If gh is auth-failing or rate-limited,
   the violation message now shows why instead of looking like
   "PR doesn't exist."

Both checker + self-test still pass locally. CI should now succeed.

* fix(ci): grant pull-requests:read for manager-brief authority check

The check uses `gh pr view --json state` to verify "LANDED via #N"
claims map to MERGED PRs. Default GITHUB_TOKEN scopes only include
contents:read; pull-request access fails with:

  GraphQL: Resource not accessible by integration (repository.pullRequest)

Surfaced when the script's stderr-capture fix (ea33aeb) made the
actual error message visible — diagnostic improvement paid off
immediately.

* WIP: Gunbc PM

* fix(scripts): manager-brief checker — markdown-bold + heading-strip + Q3 trigger

Per gpt-5-5-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1126 (sha:ea33aeb9). Three
findings — one BLOCKING (Q5 was ceremonial on its load-bearing
projection), one secondary (heading-strip glob bug), one coverage gap.

1. **Q5 markdown-bold mismatch (BLOCKING).** Live briefs use
   `Names this manager one of **7** standing R2 managers` — markdown
   emphasis around the count. The pre-fix regex `[0-9]+ standing R2
   managers` required a bare leading digit, so it matched zero claims
   on every brief. Counts_seen stayed empty → "0 counts seen → silent
   OK" branch fired → check passed ceremonially. A future drift to
   `**6** standing R2 managers` would have been invisible.

   Fix: regex now optionally accepts `**` before and after the digit:
   `\*?\*?[0-9]+\*?\*? standing R2 managers`. Extraction strips
   asterisks (`tr -d '*'`) before parsing. Verified on live briefs:

   $ grep -oE '\*?\*?[0-9]+\*?\*? standing R2 managers' docs/briefs/r2-*-manager.md
   docs/briefs/r2-evaluator-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-grounding-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-impossible-bugs-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-modeling-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-pure-bootstrap-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-release-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers
   docs/briefs/r2-substrate-manager.md:**7** standing R2 managers

   Now actually catches all 7 briefs' projections.

2. **Heading-strip glob bug (Q2 secondary).** `${heading##\#* }` is
   a Bash glob that strips through the LAST space, so
   "## Goal 7 — Evaluator XL" becomes "XL" instead of "Goal 7 —
   Evaluator XL". Multi-word heading anchors silently false-fail.

   Fix: introduced `strip_heading_marker()` helper using sed regex
   `^#{1,6}[[:space:]]+` for accurate prefix-only stripping.

3. **Self-test fixture format mismatch (coverage gap).** Self-test
   used bare-digit form ("7 standing R2 managers"); live briefs use
   markdown-bold ("**7** standing R2 managers"). Fixture proved Q5
   for a format the live docs don't use, masking finding 1.

   Fix: updated all clean + drift fixtures in self-test to use
   markdown-bold form. Verifies Q5 catches the actual format.

4. **Q3 dissolution trigger (per debt-tracking discipline).** Previous
   "v2; the next narrowing opportunity" was a future bucket without
   a checkable trigger. Replaced with concrete trigger: "first
   reviewer-flagged status-string drift class that Q1/Q2/Q4/Q5
   don't catch." Until that surfaces, status vocabulary is captured
   indirectly via Q5 count-projection consistency.

Local checker + self-test still pass after fixes; Q5 now actually
fires on live brief content rather than silently passing ceremonial.

* fix(scripts+briefs): manager-brief Q2 prose-form check + align 7 citations

Per gpt-5-5-pro BLOCKING on PR #1126 (sha:91b5274fc): Q2 explicitly
excluded prose §"section name" citations, but live briefs use those
for load-bearing INVARIANTS / r2-structure / design authority claims.
The exclusion left 12 real authority drifts uncheckable.

**Implements Q2-prose** (in addition to Q2-markdown-anchor):

For each `§"quoted section"` or `§AnchorToken` in a brief:

1. Compute the prefix BEFORE this citation (running prefix; the bug
   in v0 was using before-first-§ for every iteration, so subsequent
   citations on the same line resolved against the first link's
   target instead of their own).
2. Find the most recent markdown link `[text](path)` in the prefix —
   that's the cited file. Fall back to bare `<NAME>.md` token via
   `resolve_authority_file()` (tries `$ROOT/`, `$ROOT/docs/`,
   `$ROOT/docs/thesis/`, `$ROOT/docs/briefs/`).
3. `grep -F` for the section text in the cited file. Permissive
   substring match (vs Q2-markdown's slug match) — accepts
   paraphrased section names while still catching the load-bearing
   "section deleted" failure mode.

**Caught 12 real drifts on first run** — all now fixed:

- r2-evaluator-manager.md: §"Goal 7 — Evaluator XL" + §"Evaluator
  Manager (added 2026-04-28 as Goal 7)" → §"Evaluator Manager
  (added 2026-04-28 amendment)" (matches r2-structure.md:159 actual
  heading)
- r2-grounding-manager.md: §"Tier 1 — Structural correctness —
  Grounding completeness" → §"Tier 1 — Structural correctness"
  (matches THESIS.md:168 actual prose)
- r2-impossible-bugs-manager.md (×2): §"R2 manager continuation"
  → §"Manager structure" (matches r3-structure.md:103 actual heading)
- r2-impossible-bugs-manager.md: §Q1-Q3 + §Q6 → §Q1, §Q2, §Q3 + §Q6
  (range citation didn't match anything literal; expand to discrete)
- r2-release-manager.md (×2): §"R2 manager continuation"
  → §"Manager structure"
- r2-release-manager.md (×2): §v2-guardrail-requirement-3
  → §"v2 guardrail requirements" (matches r2-structure.md:490 body)
- r2-substrate-manager.md: §"R3 lane structure" → §"Lane structure"
  (matches r3-structure.md:86 actual heading)

Local checker + self-test still pass after fixes.

Reinforces gpt-5-5-pro's earlier meta-observation: a checker that
names a discipline but doesn't enforce it on the live format is
documented cheating. Q2-prose closes that gap; the briefs' authority
citations now have to match section text that actually exists.

* chore(scripts): manager-brief — mktemp gh-stderr + Q1 false-pos trigger

Per claude-opus-4-7 APPROVE-with-exploratory-observations on PR #1126
(sha:91b5274f). Two non-blocking cleanups landed.

1. **gh-stderr capture: $$ → mktemp.** Previous form used
   `/tmp/gh-stderr-$$` which is fine in CI but a crashed run on a
   shared dev box could leak the file. `mktemp` gives a unique path
   + paired cleanup in scope.

2. **Q1 false-positive trigger documented.** Q1 currently treats
   every `](path)` as a filesystem reference. Markdown reference-
   style link definitions and code-block examples containing
   `](foo)` would false-positive. No briefs use either form today;
   added DISSOLUTION TRIGGER comment naming the condition that
   would force context-aware extraction (skip fenced code blocks
   + reference definitions).

The third observation (squash-merge for the WIP: Gunbc PM commits)
is a merge-time decision; PR-level chore.

* fix(scripts): manager-brief Q4 case-insensitive + title-case test

Per gpt-5-5-pro APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS on PR #1126 (sha:91b5274f →
6dafaec): Q4 silently missed title-case "Landed via #N" claims.

**Finding 1 (Q4 case sensitivity):** live briefs use three case forms
of "landed via #N":
  - UPPERCASE — emphasized status-table claims (most common)
  - lowercase — inline prose ("landed via #900", "landed via #937", ...)
  - title-case — sentence-leading headings (r2-release-manager.md:113
    "Landed via #1078:")
The pre-fix regex `(LANDED|landed) via` missed the title-case form,
silently passing any future unique `Landed via #N` claim. Fix:
`grep -oEi 'landed via #[0-9]+'` (case-insensitive flag).

**Finding 2 (Q4 self-test gap):** Q4 negative fixture used UPPERCASE
"LANDED via #88888888"; positive fixture had no landed-PR claim at
all. Title-case wasn't covered. Fixes:

- Added `test_negative_q4_unreachable_pr_titlecase` using "Landed via
  #88888887" — verifies case-insensitive Q4 catches title-case.
- Updated `write_clean_briefs` clean fixture to include
  "Substrate landed via #999" (lowercase, matching real brief
  format). Q4 positive path is now non-vacuous: tmp git repo seeds
  "(#999)" merge subject so this resolves cleanly.

**Finding 3 (Q2 prose deferral note)**: STALE — Q2-prose was
implemented in 97affdb (2 commits before this review). The reviewer
cited line numbers from before the implementation; current code at
`scripts/check-manager-brief-authority.sh:121` says "Two forms covered"
not "v2 candidate". No action needed.

Self-test now: 8 contract assertions (6 negative + 1 positive +
1 fail-closed-on-missing-brief).

* chore(briefs): strip trailing whitespace at r2-evaluator-manager.md:46

Per codex review on PR #1126 (sha:3ba4f2c1): `git diff --check
origin/main...HEAD` flagged trailing whitespace inside the
PR-A-through-PR-E dependency-graph ASCII art. Removed.

* fix(scripts): manager-brief Q2-prose digit-leading + negative test

Per gpt-5-5-pro REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #1126 (sha:b9f7a1c1): Q2-prose
extractor required §-followed-by-letter, silently skipping the
digit-leading citation forms used in the same diff.

Live brief usage caught:
  §4   — r2-evaluator/grounding/impossible-bugs/modeling/pure-bootstrap
  §6a  — r2-modeling-manager.md (cite of design-substrate-carrier-port-program §6a)
  §0.7 — r2-pure-bootstrap-manager.md (cite of debt-paydown-synthesis §0.7)
  §5   — r2-release-manager.md

All previously skipped → "Q2 (prose §) resolved" was vacuously true
on those lines.

Fix: regex `§[A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9._-]*[A-Za-z0-9]|§[A-Za-z]`
     →    `§[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]*[A-Za-z0-9]|§[A-Za-z0-9]`
(extends [A-Za-z]-leading to [A-Za-z0-9]-leading; quoted form
unchanged).

Documented limitation: short digit-only tokens like §4 resolve
permissively because grep -F "4" matches anywhere; multi-character
tokens like §6a are discriminating.

Self-test gap (also flagged): added
`test_negative_q2_missing_prose_numeric_section` using §99zzz
(digit-leading, multi-char so substring match doesn't trivially
pass). Verifies regex extraction triggers Q2-prose violation on
digit-leading citation drift.

Self-test now: 9 contract assertions (7 negative + 1 positive +
1 fail-closed-on-missing-brief).

* docs(briefs): consume Tier 1 design locks 1+2+3 from #1129

Director landed Items 1+2+3 design locks together via #1129
(`e1afabe47`):
- Item 1 (Q1 asymmetric bound algebra) — `docs/design-emission-model.md`
  §"Q1 — `BoundDeclaration` substrate type"
- Item 2 (reflection completeness) — NEW
  `docs/design-reflection-completeness.md`
- Item 3 (Q6.5 two-layer diagnostic-kind) — `docs/design-lens-framework.md`
  §"Q6.5 — Two-layer authority for diagnostic kinds"

Per agreed PM role on inbox #828: as each design-lock doc lands, PM
consumes the lock into worker brief updates (statuses move from
PENDING/gated → LIVE; cited authority anchors verified by the
manager-brief authority checker). Mostly mechanical.

Brief updates:

- **Substrate** (3 sites): T-Substrate-Lens-Primitive flips from
  "gated on PR-K" to "Q6/Q6.5/Q7/Q8 LANDED via #1129; ready to
  dispatch"; "Diagnostic-kind extensibility (Q6 lock)" replaced
  with the locked Q6.5 two-layer authority cite (Layer 1 closed sum
  Substrate-owned; Layer 2 lens-instance via inhabitance; additive
  widening of `Diagnostic.kind` named).
- **Evaluator** (5 sites): "Lens application gated on PR-C" → cites
  the landed reflection-completeness doc; PR-C row in cadence table
  flips to LANDED; Q6 disposition becomes Q6+Q6.5 with explicit
  cite to design-lens-framework.md §Q6.5; "Reflection completeness
  lives in PR-C" → "lives in design-reflection-completeness.md
  (LANDED via #1129)"; PR-C worker brief in pending list crossed
  out as superseded.
- **Modeling** (1 site): status header now cites Q1 lock landing
  with explicit anchor; int-lit item already references Interval<D>
  via PR-PreF.
- **Grounding** (2 sites): T-Ground-Diagnostic lane and Substrate-
  Manager-cross-program-dependency cite Q6.5 — clarifies lane is
  Layer-1 consumer (not Layer-2 author), no cross-manager handoff.
- **Pure Bootstrap** (1 site): Q6 disposition becomes Q6+Q6.5 +
  reflection-completeness cite added (load-bearing for R3-T-
  LensProducer-Retirement per design-reflection-completeness.md
  §"Cascade and gates" §7.3).
- **Impossible-Bugs** (1 site): Q6 cite becomes Q6+Q6.5; classes
  consume Layer 1, not author Layer 2.

Verified: `bash scripts/check-manager-brief-authority.sh` passes
all 7 briefs (Q1/Q2-md/Q2-prose/Q4/Q5); 9 contract assertions in
self-test still pass.

Note: one brief edit required restructuring (modeling-manager.md:3)
because the original cite put §"section" inside the markdown link's
display text, while the heuristic finds the rightmost `](path)` BEFORE
the §. Moved cite outside the link to align: `[file.md](path) §"section"`.
Same pattern as other landed cites; the checker enforces it
structurally.

* chore(scripts): manager-brief — concrete dissolution trigger for short-digit § limitation

Per codex APPROVE_WITH_COMMENTS on PR #1156 (sha:00540f36): the
short digit-only § resolve-permissively limitation was documented
and bounded but lacked a concrete dissolution trigger.

Updated to match Q3 dissolution-trigger discipline: trigger fires
on first reviewer-flagged stale `§N` (single-digit) citation that
survives the substring check because the digit appears elsewhere
in the target file. At that point the check tightens to require
structural context — match `§N` only if the target has a heading
`## N`, `### N`, etc. or numbered-list item at column 0.

Until that surfaces, multi-character disambiguation is the
load-bearing discriminator (and live briefs predominantly use
multi-char forms — §P1, §Q6, §Q6.5, §"Lane structure" — so
single-digit `§4` citations are uncommon).

* docs(design): consume Q6.5 lock in worked examples + r2-structure Q6 row

Per Director (zesty-bear-812) endorsement on inbox #828: fold the
design-doc Q6.5-consumption edits originally drafted in PR #1137
(jolly-ram-908) into the canonical consumption PR. Single-sourced
consumption story; #1137 ends up as a clean no-op redirect.

8 lens-framework worked-example reframes + 1 r2-structure Q6 row
update. All consume the Q6.5 two-layer authority disposition
landed via #1129:

**design-lens-framework.md (8 sites):**
- §"Lens<TenantFlow>" `validate(dag, set)`: "new
  CompilerDiagnosticKind variant" → "lens-local diagnostic-kind
  declaration"
- §"Lens<IFC>" `validate(dag, label)`: same reframe for
  IFCDowngradeViolation
- §"D5 Failure modes": "appropriate CompilerDiagnosticKind variant
  (lens instances may extend CompilerDiagnosticKind...)" →
  "appropriate lens-local diagnostic-kind declaration"
- §Q6 alternative (d): "pushes structural failure data into
  Diagnostic.kind (which is CompilerDiagnosticKind sum type —
  already extends per-instance per
  feedback_state_space_vs_behavioral_invariants)" → "pushes
  structural failure data into lens-local Diagnostic.kind
  declarations"
- §Q6 anti-bridge claim renaming `no_string_parsing_in_witness_consumers`
  description: "Diagnostic.kind extensions" → "lens-local
  Diagnostic.kind declarations"
- §Q6 Recommendation (d): "encode into Diagnostic.kind sum-type
  variants. Lens instances ... extend CompilerDiagnosticKind
  with their own variants" → "encode into lens-local Diagnostic.kind
  declarations. Lens instances ... declare their own kinds beside
  the lens instance"
- §Q6 DECISION line: "(c)/(d) hybrid — Witness<C> stays as-is;
  rich structural validation failures encode into Diagnostic.kind
  extensions via the lens-framework's structural inhabitance" →
  same with "lens-local Diagnostic.kind declarations"; date stamp
  augmented with "refined 2026-04-29"
- §Q6 Director's framing #1: "CapabilityViolation as a
  CompilerDiagnosticKind variant is uniform" →
  "CapabilityViolation as a lens-local diagnostic-kind declaration
  is uniform"

**r2-structure.md (1 site):** §"Q1-Q8 disposition" Q6 row updated
to match design-lens-framework's locked language: "encode into
Diagnostic.kind extensions via lens-framework's structural
inhabitance" → "encode into lens-local Diagnostic.kind declarations
via lens-framework structural inhabitance, not into the closed
compiler-core CompilerDiagnosticKind sum".

These edits are *editorial* — the Q6.5 lock at design-lens-framework.md
§"Q6.5 — Two-layer authority for diagnostic kinds" remains the
canonical authority; this just aligns the worked examples + r2-
structure summary row with that canonical phrasing so future
readers don't see the older "extends CompilerDiagnosticKind"
framing in worked examples and assume it survived.

Verified: manager-brief authority check passes (7 briefs / 0
violations); 9 contract assertions in self-test pass; release-doc
authority check passes.

Per inbox #828 + #1130 coordination: jolly-ram-908 confirmed PR
#1137 will close as redundant once #1156 lands (the brief edits
were already absorbed by my prior consumption pass; these
design-doc edits are the residual that's now folded in).
