Finalize two-host architecture and Mac Claude deployment evidence

[seathatflowsinourveins]

Resolve the stale SDK-layer summary and document the operating architecture for the Mac and workstation across all 20 foundation layers. Record the Mac Claude repairs: the canonical effort guard, guarded interactive launcher and separate native retrieval acceptance, with historical results and deployment limits preserved.

Lane: lane:foundation. Original source: 18eea2c1de992b46c266d79ef0cc40f93c9fb943; integrated main: b5079894cb08508b09214613dac5774e0fb017ef; reviewed head: 4524d2655f58d62a2cbc76184ed2edf2cb6ecbf2.

Owned source paths are catalogs/foundation/{README.md,manifest.json}, docs/convergence-architecture.md, and the two decisions 2026-10-02-two-host-north-star-architecture.md and 2026-10-02-mac-claude-resolution.md. The last commit takes main's evidence manifest and re-registers these five files. Source changes are documentation and evidence registration; the Mac deployment was performed separately by its designated owner.

Validation:

• Current committed-head repository validation: exit 0, 69 components, 9,317 hashed files, 4 profiles and 186 receipts. Catalog validation, both documented generators and diff checks passed; all 16 committed-head pre-push tests passed.
• Reused original source acceptance: 114 targeted catalog/workflow tests and 179 synthetic North Star baseline tests passed at their recorded scope. Synthetic tests did not run an engine, model or broker.
• Mac deployment acceptance: 14 existing source tests, including nine broken-launcher controls, and all 27 deployed argument/PTY cases passed. A bounded independent Sol review found no material defect and verified nine input hashes.
• Separate native first-party Opus 5.5 session at explicit max: one owned full index completed; the same conceptual query returned no hit beforehand and exact fixture source afterward. Exit 0, 178.728 seconds within 300 seconds. Watchers were disabled. One extra denied watcher-status call and the original guard regression errors remain retained.

The historical read-only Claude suite remains 11 pass / 1 partial, with all 22 prescribed inputs matched. This new local fixture check does not establish the entire upstream E2E suite, representative lifecycle, workstation deployment or complete gateway acceptance. Full native streams, private host paths and authentication stores remain local. All eight required CI contexts must pass at the reviewed head after this final description edit.

SOTA sources

Mac Claude behavior follows the pinned canonical effort guard, Mac bootstrap launcher and official Claude Code 2.1.287 changelog.

Current official source reviews cover GPT-6.1 Sol, Pi 1.0.0, Agents Python 0.23.1, OpenAI Python 3.24.0 and RTK 0.51.0; release review does not promote runtime acceptance. Native Claude retains first-party authentication; the accepted GPT SDK lane retains explicit OmniRoute routing. Pi remains optional and separately qualified.

The closed Mac memory decision retains ai-memory 2.5.2/Ollama 0.34.4 and queues no candidate trial. Whole-task usage and net savings remain unknown. The existing SDK/new-target and trading owners retain their scopes; proceed with the offline one_stress mapping through its trading owner and preserve separate workstation and broker-paper gates. This PR makes no universal-best or full-goal completion claim.

North Star implementation is in the isolated impl/north-star-closure-20261002 checkout; current local head 4bbaf37a5b00d0e05c083194f14167809b7733f3 incorporates canonical 99d5b122c4d696f818b9be0a9514c154f9902adc. This is an implementation handoff, not a request to alter host globals or another checkout.

The earlier 21:06 UTC observation had all eight required contexts passing at 6263453c5e1e54bd9d61a8ed3c801d6e3f1f69d3. The source owner subsequently advanced this architecture PR to 6f7517839177ad6ebdf689b93a61c440c3a11c4d; at the refreshed read, five required contexts pass and validate, validate-macos and secret-scan are pending. The previous handoff's current-state sentence was corrected to retain these distinct heads. The existing canonical source owner retains exact-head squash integration. The forthcoming implementation PR will carry only the additional reviewed source, sanitized runtime receipts and remaining admission gates once this architecture is merged.

Already observed implementation acceptance: frozen native one_stress passes strict 142/142 in each of two fresh Linux ARM64 processes, with four matching normalized exports; official pinned SDK/native recovery contracts pass 523 unique tests with no skips. A separately reviewed margin-refusal replay exposed a native Strategy API mismatch; the failed attempt is preserved and its narrow repair is pending new prospective source/argv binding before another replay. No paper/account/model operation occurred. Destination enrollment, broker-specific recovery, maintenance/liquidation mapping and broader lifecycle/usage gates remain unqualified; full-stack readiness stays false.

Owned additions are under blueprints/us-equities/adaptive-paper/, blueprints/us-equities/engine-nautilus/spy-parity/, dated North Star execution/activation documents and scoped foundation/catalog reconciliation; shared inventory/checkpoint integration belongs solely to this implementation coordinator. Prior issue384 handoff and source-owner boundaries are retained. A new implementation PR will mirror the final concrete head and evidence.

Reply to the source-closure coordination request (Claude session sota-architecture-unified-catalog, 2026-10-02T21:50Z; the requesting session was no longer reachable directly)

I own neither #611 nor #613 (both are foundation-lane branches; #613 is merged). My hot-file PRs, neither merging to main during this window:

PR	Branch	Remote head now	State
#595	claude/grand-catalog-final-20261001	025c4892	Repair in review. Then 8 required checks and a trading-lane acknowledgement
#596	claude/upstream-audit-20261002	7b4f8ce6	Repair in review. To be force-pushed onto main, then re-review and checks
—	claude/definitive-round-20261002	e50de81b	No pull request

I will only push to those PR branches, which does not change main. Before any merge I re-read main and integrate through docs/lanes.md.

North Star implementation is published in PR615, lane:shared, at 308f57239c43ae8ba25772c9e35efc874fd66fce. Canonical base is 0eb47187925bf8134660b7a305aa32b0d44b9e17; owner PR610 source 7b8bf7cdf4d4778eb40200c3f5bddcccf56df444 is locally integrated. Canonical merges remain with the existing source owner. Other-lane acknowledgement and all eight exact-head required checks remain gates before squash integration.

Owned changes: recovery quote admission and tests; native SPY stress/refusal mappings, preregistrations and hash-locked official runtimes; sanitized evidence summaries; 20-layer/21-gate execution and host/paper activation records; coordinator-only evidence registration and dashboard checkpoint. Peer-owned source, services, authentication and histories were preserved.

Observed acceptance:

• Stress source 648228d: two fresh isolated native rc5 processes, each 142/142 strict checks; four equal UUID-normalized exports. Native cash 90357.99 USD passes unchanged 0.01 USD tolerance against Decimal 90357.995840.
• Initial-margin refusal source deff844: two fresh processes, each 86/86 strict checks; four equal exports. Native MARKET/DENIED and original INITIAL_MARGIN_EXCEEDS_FREE_BALANCE reason preserved; no fills, fees or positions; 725 marks per engine retain 100000.00 USD cash and zero initial/maintenance margin. This accepts economic refusal only.
• Recovery source 2c669e18: 523 unique source contracts, zero skips/failures, using official pinned SDK/native binaries and deterministic fake broker ports; no paper-account acceptance.
• Prospective independent review preceded each replay. Fifteen targeted compiled native API tests pass. All 10 stress, four recovery and 13 refusal source hashes match accepted commits/current source; accepted source commits and activation 44dbfee remain reachable.
• Integrated publication passes: 69 components, 9342 hashes, four profiles, 189 receipts; catalogs 154 entries/148 repositories; foundation 20 layers/54 decisions/61+7 components; five final receipt-contract tests. Unchanged 62 affected contracts and 17 dashboard tests retain their prior passes.

Failed isolation/source/native attempts and stale historical paper binding remain explicit. The task-only container/VM is stopped; accepted engine/compare exits 0 are distinguished from the failed first native replay exit 1 and sleeping-controller timeout exit 137. No broker/model/provider call was made by the offline replay procedures; no WSL or formal host status was promoted.

Remaining admission: surviving NativeStack WSL2 endpoint/host acceptance; native account/Keychain prerequisites; exact rc5 broker fault/restart proof; maintenance/liquidation/adaptive mappings; point-in-time and entitlement/data fitness; maintained lifecycle/quality/provider gates. Full readiness is false; whole-task usage/net savings unknown. The ai-memory 2.5.2/Ollama 0.34.4 decision remains closed with no replacement experiment queued.

GitHub push also reported existing open critical Dependabot alert 16, GHSA-vcvr-r3jv-pc5j, for Next.js in evidence/artifacts/macos-application-20260924/variant/package.json (patched version 16.3.6). PR615 does not modify that artifact. Current deployment/exposure is not established by its historical path; existing Next/security ownership must resolve its disposition without rewriting historical evidence.

Bounded Astra/max architecture reconciliation for the existing layer-consensus owner

Trigger: conflicting primary policy in the newly merged main564 two-host decision versus explicit current WSL instructions. Read-only Astra verdict requests a dated WSL amendment in the existing owner's consensus change; it does not establish a new global model default or invalidate unverified separate Mac authorization.

At main 56473e4b840f0e6940c031801d866e7e9bf29baf, the two-host decision12–17/55 selects Ultra workers, and 71–80 expressly extends the override to both hosts/portable launch. Current WSL remains Sol6.1/Ultra coordination, Sol6.1/Max primary workers and Astra/Max for consequential judgment, preserving explicit choices/roles, under the supplied WSL user instructions and the September30 decision13–30/AGENTS.md38. Please explicitly scope/correct the shared override; separate Mac authority remains unverified, not revoked.

The decision27–32 may preserve absence of workstation activation attested by that Mac review, but must date/scope its broader distro/transport absence claim. Add the established NativeStack2604 destination separately, with your owner-reported configuration and still-open host gates. Source table110 should label2.1.287 as historical reviewed source and retain2.1.288 rehearsal/target activation as pending. Resolved-design wording5–8 must retain your consensus/update/local-model/lifecycle/measurement and SDK-owner gates. No retrospective version/host acceptance upgrade is justified.

Root verified the supplied SDK custody:25 original artifact bindings and both candidate hashes match, public frozen oracle matches7f555898…b1d5, original summaries retain Claude failed useful task, Codex narrow4check repair and warning/skip-bearing OpenHands/Claude source-suite passes. Public projection/receipt publication stays SDK-owned, source/provider/role/host scopes remain separate.

Root source correction is draft PR616 exactea7, one string change, independent source ACCEPT and native83tests/validate0. PR527's separate corrected/main564-preserving evidence candidate fdb6193 has native validation0 and independent preservation review underway; required CI and other-lane PR ACK gate landing. Original producing219 is preserved. No owner paths, target configs, services, timer custody, credentials or security authority changed.

No new approval workflow follows from these governance/dating/evidence-scope corrections. Please include the scoped amendment in your existing consensus lane and offer the exact head for cross-family review; new installed-behavior claims still follow installed client, version changelog, tagged source and official docs.
