Summary

Run record and PLAN-EVAL surface for the 0.0.6 chores/internals lane. This PR carries orchestration
evidence only — the tracked run dir. It contains no implementation and no closing keyword, and it
is not for merge. It exists so the rescoped quality-rail plan has a reviewable surface that the
automated phase-eval path can key off.

Not to be flipped out of draft. Draft → ready triggers the formal IMPL-EVAL
(openhands-phase-eval.yml), which is meaningless for a record PR. PLAN-EVAL fires from the
openhands + status:plan-eval label pair, which does not require a non-draft PR.

Scope

What is under evaluation — PLAN-EVAL cycle 4

plan-quality-rail.md revision 4, the rescoped rail plan. Three prior cycles ran on the native
opposite-family route and returned FAIL_PLAN; cycle 3 closed 6 of 10 cycle-2 findings with none
unaddressed, and its residue was in the issues' premises rather than the plan's structure. The owner
then authorized rescoping the issues.

What the rescope moved, with the measurement that forced it:

Moved to 0.0.7 Why it could not be truthfully ticked in 0.0.6
#1378 boxes 1, 2, and the exported/local + linked/unlinked halves of box 8 deno doc --json over 30 export maps: 3.733 s, exit 0, 567 warnings, 1,714 published symbol records with unresolved type references (3,945 occurrences; 230/724 in plugin-sagas-core, 174/487 in fresh). Warning text names the dependency module, not the dependent declaration — so export-reachability has no deterministic attribution at this baseline. Separately, box 2 needs the allowance's issue to be open and milestoned, and scan-code-quality.ts runs --allow-read only, so it cannot observe live issue state.
#1545 (all five boxes) Its acceptance depends on the registration rule that moved with #1378.

#1549 was filed to carry the provable half in 0.0.6: docs-fence scanning via #1374's extractor, the
soundness/type-fixture exemption asserted by rule, --max-allow at the measured count, the same-PR
budget-link predicate in the existing code-quality job, and typing
docs/site/reference/triggers/index.md:310 plus its executable twin.

The four things cycle 4 should attack hardest

  1. Is the rescope honest, or did it move the hard parts to look deliverable? Every moved box has a
    written reason on its issue. Judge whether #1549's remaining set is genuinely provable, or whether it
    inherits the same attribution problem in a smaller form.
  2. The provenance reconciliation. This repository's history begins at 317e4b509 (2026-07-06, beta.5
    cut). arch-debt.md:583 records the packages/sagas supersession and fd8259b76 deletes
    packages/shared, both outside HEAD's ancestry. Revision 3 got two of these six rows wrong; revision 4
    corrects them. Re-probe rather than trusting the table.
  3. Fireability of every negative case. Cycle 3 caught two proofs that could not fail — a coverage test
    deriving its expectation from the function under test, and a landed slice whose required gate was red.
    Both are fixed; look for others.
  4. Whether any acceptance box is still unrouted or unprovable across #1530, #1403, #1380, #1549.

Slices

Validation

This PR ships no code, so it carries no code gates. The lane's executed gate evidence lives per PR:
#1527's [PRE-MERGE GATE] comment recorded 7/7 with pr-checks 15/15 current-pass.

Baselines re-measured for the rail, at 84dd44ae7: quality:scan exit 0 / allowCount: 7;
quality:scan:repo exit 1 / 5 findings / allowCount: 10; arch:check exit 0;
arch:check:repo exit 1 / FAIL=55; 36 live units; 6 soundness tests; 12 type fixtures.

Harness

  • Run dir: .llm/runs/release-0.0.6-internals--orchestration/
  • Phase: plan-eval (cycle 4). Not mergeable in this state by design — netscript-pr forbids merging a
    PR whose status: is plan-eval, which is correct here.
  • Evaluator policy: label/transition triggered, never manually dispatched (drift.md D-14). Cycles 1–3
    ran locally before that directive and are deliberately not duplicated.

Drift / Debt

17 entries in drift.md. The ones a reviewer should read: D-4 (#1436's prescribed fix was a no-op),
D-10/D-15 (status:ready-merge is not a ci.yml trigger, and #1524 made that documentation claim
half-true rather than fixing it), D-11/D-16 (two FAIL_PLAN root causes, including an unverified
claim of the orchestrator's own), D-14 (this evaluator policy), D-17 (the rescope).

No new architecture debt. arch-debt.md changes are PR-C's deliverable, not this PR's.

Definition of Done

This PR is a record surface and is not merged, so it has no completion claim to gate. The lane's
definition of done is in plan.md and milestone-run.md § Definition of done, discharged per leaf PR.

…aselines

Stage A/B of the topical milestone run for the 0.0.6 chores/internals lane
(#1436, #1415, #1403, #1380, #1378).

Records what was executed rather than what was assumed: identity/worktree
proof, all five live issue bodies with a 30-box acceptance inventory, and the
dispatch preconditions (runtime doctor, managed Codex daemon, live-turn
provider verification) that milestone-run stage B requires as recorded output.

The re-baseline falsified #1436's own prescribed fix: the word boundary it asks
for is already present, and \b is why the defect survives, because '-' is a
non-word character. evidence/probe-1436-baseline.ts is the executed proof, and
it found a second instance ('un-fixed #555') the issue does not mention.

…lanning events

Wave 2 gets one plan (plan-quality-rail.md) with nine locked decisions and a
fully executed baseline, because #1403/#1380/#1378 overlap on root lists, scan
semantics, doctrine and architecture debt.

Executing the baseline moved three numbers the issues assert, and each change
alters the work:

- quality:scan:repo is RED on main and has been for 7 consecutive pushes, so
  #1378's own gate box is unsatisfiable as written. Filed #1530 and inserted it
  before #1378.
- arch:check:repo FAIL is 55, not the 53 #1380 recorded four days ago.
- Five of #1380's six stale verdict rows name directories that never existed in
  this repo, so rename-vs-deletion is a false dichotomy for them.

Also records PR-A's dispatch identity and the orchestrator's independent
re-verification of the #1436 fix, the owner's add-then-withdraw of #1529, and a
brief error the implementation agent caught by escalating rather than idling.

…the worklog

Wrapping an attached Codex launch or resume in a shell timeout kills the slice
at expiry. The launch wrapper did fire SIGTERM here; the thread survived, and
the worklog wrongly recorded that as harmless. Surviving once is not evidence
the practice is safe.

Attached launch and resume now run unwrapped; bounded observation uses
agentic:codex-watch --timeout-seconds, which expires without touching the
slice. Also records that codex exec resume fails with a thread-store conflict
while a thread is mid-turn, which is the mechanical signal for "not at a turn
boundary".

…rigger

Both netscript-pr and check-close-gate's own repair hint say the labeled event
triggers a fresh run. Neither ci.yml nor e2e-cli.yml lists labeled in its
pull_request types, so the label creates no run and the hint tells the operator
to do something that cannot work. Cost one verification cycle on PR #1527.

Label first, then push is the rule that works, because the gate and the mirror
read live state at execution time.

PR #1527 merged as 63cd1cd, closing #1436 and #1415 with all seven pre-merge
gate checks passing and both issues auto-closed COMPLETED.

Records three failure modes that cost real time (the ready-merge label not being
a workflow trigger, the attached-slice timeout wrapper, and steering mid-turn),
and one falsified assumption worth keeping: a cancelled expensive gate is not
evidence the gate did not run. Both scaffold-runtime tiers first read as
cancelled and resolved to real successes once only the latest run per check name
was taken. Blocking on them would have manufactured a false red.

… caught

The rail PLAN-EVAL (fresh Codex Sol high, opposite family) returned FAIL_PLAN on
three findings. The consequential one is the orchestrator's own error: the plan
asserted rfcs/ holds only a template and a README, inherited from #1380's
2026-08-08 measurement and never re-measured, inside a plan whose stated value is
that it re-measured everything. Five numbered RFCs 0001-0005 are present at the
plan's own baseline, so #1380's RFC divergence has already closed and its
acceptance box means something different than the issue says.

Also records that the A14 population is 53 sanctioned imports plus one real
locally bound describe -- a live negative case the fix must still fire on, not a
54th false positive -- and that six acceptance boxes had no routed proof.

Adds the supervision note that a stalled status label is not death: the refused
resume with an active-writer lock is positive proof the thread is working.

Records the evaluator's artifact verbatim: six blocking findings, three
should-fix, one advisory, with a re-measured baseline table and a full command
ledger that retains its intentionally-failed exploratory commands.

Two of its blocking findings are protocol gaps on the orchestrator's side: no
research.md exists and worklog.md has no Design section, both of which
plan-gate.md requires. Two are wrong locked decisions (R-6 creates a transient
second source of truth; R-9 rests on repository state already false at the
plan's baseline). One is the unresolved #1374 extractor collision, which
plan-gate.md classifies as FAIL_PLAN because it forces rework. One is six
acceptance boxes with no stated proof route, against a live denominator of 34
rather than the 33 the brief asserted.

Independently checked and not accepted as stated: #1530's post-merge box already
carries the [post-merge] marker, so it is excluded from the merge gate by the
sanctioned mechanism rather than needing a verification issue.

Adds the two protocol artifacts cycle 1 lacked -- research.md and a Design
section with 21 ordered file-scoped commit slices, each with a gate -- and
answers every finding.

Withdraws two locked decisions rather than editing them away. R-6 would have
created a checked-in root list that the next PR replaces; a single
discoverDoctrineRoots() introduced in PR-B and expanded in PR-C serves the same
coverage predicate with one source of truth. R-9 rested on rfcs/ holding only a
template, inherited from #1380 and never re-measured, when five accepted numbered
RFCs are present at this plan's own baseline.

Corrects the A14 decomposition: 53 sanctioned BDD imports plus one locally bound
helper at packages/mcp/tests/service-endpoint-sources_test.ts:248, and zero live
bare globals. Treating all 54 as import false positives would have shipped a fix
that silenced the true positive too.

Routes all 34 acceptance boxes, resolves the #1374 extractor collision by
consuming that lane's parser rather than writing a second one, and makes the
export audit fail closed because deno doc --json returned exit 0 while emitting
567 unresolved-type warnings.

Rebuts one finding with evidence: #1530's post-merge box already carries the
[post-merge] marker, which is the sanctioned exclusion mechanism, so it needs no
verification issue.

dependency on #1374 -- and brings context-pack.md up to date with PR #1527

…arbitration

Second FAIL_PLAN reaches the two-cycle limit, so implementation stops and the
owner arbitrates rather than a third pass being attempted.

Three findings are new information the rail had not seen: registering allowances
would immediately invalidate the eight that survive PR-E, because none carries an
issue id; R-3's fail-closed rule makes PR-D's own green gate unreachable against
567 measured deno doc warnings; and #1378 box 6 asserts a property of a diff,
which a file scanner cannot observe.

Four are the orchestrator's own sloppiness: the revised plan contradicts itself
on wave membership after Revision 2 was appended rather than reconciled, the
Design table claims 21 slices and has 20, the strictly-harder claim about #1380
box 2 was an overstatement, and the provenance conclusion ignored checked-in
records that document rename or supersession.

… every blocking finding

Replaces revisions 1 and 2 with one document. Appending a revision is what
produced the self-contradiction cycle 2 failed the plan for, so the superseded
text now lives only in git history and the two verdict files.

Resolves the three substantive design holes. R-3 scopes fail-closed to the
measured intersection with declarations the any-rule inspects, because failing
closed on all 567 deno doc warnings made #1378's own green gate unreachable.
R-7 registers the eight surviving allowances against new umbrella issue #1545,
without which #1378's linked-issue rule would red CI on day one. R-12 proves the
same-PR budget-link requirement with one added step in the existing code-quality
PR job, since a file scanner cannot observe a diff.

Retires the two-step root transition: PR-B now performs the single move to
discoverDoctrineRoots() with no interim list, which is what both cycles asked
for.

Reconciles the provenance contradiction rather than preferring one source. This
repository's history begins at 317e4b5 on 2026-07-06 with 374 commits and
already contains the plugin-*-core tier, so the supersession that arch-debt.md
records really happened -- before the earliest commit here. Both records are
true, and PR-C writes both per row.

Also corrects the strictly-harder overstatement on #1380, fixes the 21-vs-20
slice miscount, makes every Design row file-scoped, and states that PR-D drops
Closes #1378 if the extractor fallback moves box 3.

…ail PRs

Formal evaluation is no longer an orchestrator dispatch. PLAN-EVAL fires from the
openhands + status:plan-eval pair; the initial IMPL-EVAL fires on draft -> ready
unless impl-eval:skip; either reruns only by moving away from its status label
and re-adding it.

Consequences recorded for PR-E/B/C/D: no local IMPL-EVAL session is launched, no
impl-eval:skip is applied to a PR that changes gate semantics, and the draft ->
ready flip stops being a free way to materialise CI contexts because it is now an
evaluator trigger.

No violation to unwind -- this lane never dispatched OpenHands. The cycle-3 rail
PLAN-EVAL was already running locally when the directive arrived, so it is left
to finish and deliberately not duplicated with a label pair.

…laim half true

#1524 added openhands-phase-eval.yml, which does listen to labeled, while ci.yml
still does not -- and ci.yml is what runs close-gate and the acceptance mirror.
So netscript-pr's claim that applying status:ready-merge triggers a fresh run is
now half true rather than false, which is harder to catch: a label does produce a
run, just not the one that re-evaluates the close-gate.

R-11 becomes a distinction instead of a negation. Also supersedes D-2's factual
claim that #1524 was an open draft, and records that PR-E's surface and premise
are unaffected by the two new main commits.

…e decision

Cycle 3 closed 6 of 10 cycle-2 findings with none unaddressed, so the plan is
converging. What is not converging is #1378's premise.

The evaluator refused R-3's deferral and measured it: 1,714 published symbol
records contain unresolved type references across 3,945 occurrences, including
230/724 symbols in plugin-sagas-core. Warning text names the dependency module,
not the published declaration, so warnings-that-touch-a-declaration was never a
defined mapping. Export-reachability at this baseline needs a debt programme, not
a slice.

Second unimplementable premise: the scanner has only --allow-read, so it cannot
verify that an allowance's issue is open and milestoned, and the planned proof
would be satisfied by a parser accepting any issue number -- a test that cannot
fail on the property the issue requires.

Two factual corrections are mine: the sagas row was false (arch-debt.md:576-584
records the supersession) and the shared row omitted fd8259b, which deletes
packages/shared. Both are the same class I was auditing #1380 for -- asserting an
absence without running the probe that finds the presence.

…efects

Revision 4. #1378 and #1545 moved to 0.0.7 with written reasons; #1549 carries the
provable half in 0.0.6. R-3 is withdrawn by rescope and R-7 drops the issue-id
requirement, because the scanner has --allow-read only.

Fixes the three defects cycle 3 left standing. E1 no longer asks a landed slice to
have a red gate -- the RED evidence is the pre-change output in the PR comment.
B1's coverage test now derives its expected set independently of the function
under test, because a test that asks the implementation what to expect cannot
fail. And the provenance rows are corrected: sagas DOES have a checked-in
supersession record at arch-debt.md:583, and shared was deleted at fd8259b,
both verified rather than taken from the verdict.

The 374-commit figure is now pinned to the sha it was measured at.

  • netscript-harness — apply the Plan-Gate and preserve evaluator independence.
  • openhands-handoff — publish one machine-readable OpenHands verdict.
  • netscript-tools — use repository-native, read-only evidence commands.

Act as the formal PLAN-EVAL session for this pull request. Do not edit files, create commits, push,
or continue implementation. The trigger metadata supplies the trusted base SHA and immutable head
SHA: read harness protocols, verdict definitions, and selected profiles from that base commit, then
evaluate the plan and artifacts at the immutable head. Challenge scope, dependencies, architecture,
tests, consumer proof, release risk, and false-done states. Verify claims directly where useful.

Return concise findings with exact evidence and required amendments. End with exactly one supported
verdict line using OPENHANDS_VERDICT: PASS, OPENHANDS_VERDICT: FAIL_PLAN, or
OPENHANDS_VERDICT: FAIL_RESCOPE. Write the same verdict to OPENHANDS_SUMMARY_PATH. This is a
planning gate: never emit FAIL_FIX for implementation that has not started.

Scope summary

The lane owns the 0.0.6 chores/internals work. PR-A (#1436+#1415, close-gate trust) merged at 63cd1cd58. Four rail PRs remain, in the order Revision 3 locks: PR-E (#1530), PR-B (#1403), PR-C (#1380), PR-D (now #1549, the provable half of #1378). After cycle-3 owner-authorized rescope, #1378 and #1545 move to 0.0.7; #1549 carries the provable half in 0.0.6. PR-D's bootstrap branch origin/fix/1530-type-fixture-scan-scope carries only an implement.md slice brief — no rail code yet. No implementation slice is committed against this branch; HEAD differs from origin/main only in orchestration/run artifacts.

Findings (evaluated against ce011b5)

F-1 — PASS — Rescope decision is recorded with per-criterion evidence

drift.md:467-504 (D-17, committed at HEAD) names exactly which acceptance boxes moved to 0.0.7, what stays in 0.0.6, and why. The moved set is bounded (#1378 boxes 1, 2, exported/local and linked/unlinked halves of 8; all of #1545). Each moved criterion carries a measured reason (567 deno doc warnings, 1,714 published symbol records with unresolved types, scanner --allow-read cannot verify open/milestoned issue state). #1549 inherits the provable half. Honesty rule respected: criteria moved with their issue, none quietly reinterpreted.

F-2 — PASS — Three cycle-3 blocking defects were repaired

plan-quality-rail.md revision 4 (commit 2a9c674fc, immediately before HEAD) addresses E1's structural defect: RED evidence now lives in the PR comment with a green post-slice gate. B1's coverage test now derives its expected set from an independent oracle, not from discoverDoctrineRoots() itself. The six-row provenance table was corrected: @netscript/sagas records a checked-in supersession at arch-debt.md:576-584; @netscript/shared cites 0ef13de35 (add) and fd8259b76 (delete on non-HEAD history) with the non-ancestor qualifier. The 374-commit figure is pinned to 64c091c5.

F-3 — PASS — Plan-Gate checklist cleared for the rescoped surface

F-4 — FAIL_RESCOPE — Companion artifacts still describe the pre-rescope plan surface

F-5 — FAIL_RESCOPE — PR-E branch carries no committed slice

origin/fix/1530-type-fixture-scan-scope exists, but its only commit (a255aa6f6) is a slice brief under slices/pr-e-1530/implement.md, not code. The plan names E1–E4 as ordered, file-scoped, gated slices; none are committed against PR-E. With the four-PR rail still to ship, no implementation has started, so this is not a Plan-Gate failure of the plan itself — it is a confirmation that the plan has not been exercised.

F-6 — PASS — Lane discipline preserved

supervisor.md records the routes in force (lane policy unchanged), the openhands-hold (no cloud dispatch), the no-canary lane decision, and the control-branch discipline (orchestration evidence only). No workflow file is touched. PR-E's branch is the leaf implementation branch for #1530, separate from this orchestration branch.

F-7 — PASS — Verdict vocabulary used correctly

  • Cycle 1 (plan-eval.md): FAIL_PLAN
  • Cycle 2 (plan-eval-cycle2.md): FAIL_PLAN
  • Cycle 3 (plan-eval-cycle3.md): FAIL_PLAN
  • Cycle 4 (this evaluation, post-rescope): not yet emitted — see verdict below

What this run must do next (not part of this verdict)

The verdict below says the plan, as rescoped, still has stale resume prose (F-4) and no implementation has started (F-5). These are distinct problems with distinct remediations:

  1. Stale companion artifactsplan.md, worklog.md, plan-quality-rail.md acceptance routing must be reconciled to the rescoped surface in a single follow-up commit on the orchestration branch. This is a plan-gate finding: a run plan that hands contradictory resume prose to implementers is not implementation-ready. This is what blocks the verdict.
  2. PR-E not started — that is expected at this phase. Implementation is gated by the next phase (Implement) and is not the Plan-Gate's concern.

If the orchestrator treats F-4 as a follow-up commit on this branch (one commit, run-artifact-only, no workflow file touched), the next PLAN-EVAL cycle on the reconciled plan can return PASS. The cycle-3 owner directive explicitly allows a fourth cycle as the rescope cycle; the remaining rescope reconciliation is in scope of that cycle.

Responses to review comments / issue comments

  • The cycle-3 verdict recommended two bounded pre-implementation decisions (export-reachability design, allowance-registration design). The rescope replaces both with milestone moves to 0.0.7. The owner directive in drift.md:467-504 authorizes that substitution; the rescope is not a fourth plan rewrite because the moved criteria moved with their issues, not in the plan.
  • The cycle-3 "Escalation recommendation" asked the owner to "not start implementation on the current plan". Confirmed: no slice is committed against any rail PR branch. PR-E's only commit is a slice brief.

Remaining risks

Validation

  • Read every run artifact: supervisor.md, plan.md, plan-quality-rail.md (revision 4), worklog.md Design section, drift.md (D-1 through D-17), context-pack.md, research.md, plan-eval-cycle{1,2,3}.md, plan-eval-brief.md, cut-trace.md.
  • Read openhands-handoff/SKILL.md and netscript-harness/SKILL.md for protocol.
  • Verified HEAD identity: ce011b5f1 matches origin/chore/release-0.0.6-internals-orchestration exactly. origin/main is d7e2b67b2 (4 commits behind HEAD on this lane branch — all four are lane orchestration commits; lane is not an umbrella impl branch per supervisor.md § Control-branch discipline).
  • Verified PR-E branch (a255aa6f6) carries only an implement-brief commit, no slice code.
  • No deno task execution performed: PLAN-EVAL judges plan, not code, and no plan-eval command set applies at this phase. Run artifact reads are the protocol.

Summary

The owner-authorized rescope (D-17) correctly bounded the moved set, recorded per-criterion reasons, and replaced the cycle-3 blocking decisions with milestone moves rather than a fourth plan rewrite. Revision 4 of plan-quality-rail.md repaired the three carried defects cycle 3 left standing. What blocks this verdict is not the plan's decisions — it is the companion artifacts still describing the pre-rescope surface: plan.md still says three PRs and that PR-D closes #1378; worklog.md still has the pre-rescope R-6 prose; plan-quality-rail.md's acceptance routing and "Open decisions" still list #1378/#1545 boxes as in-0.0.6 and R-3/R-7 as resolved in shape. A plan-gate plan that hands contradictory resume prose to implementers is not implementation-ready. Reconciling those four prose surfaces in one follow-up commit on the orchestration branch is the smallest amendment; no workflow file is touched, no scope changes, no fourth plan rewrite.

Opened the run-record PR #1553 as a draft surface and applied the openhands +
status:plan-eval pair, after verifying the workflow's PLAN-EVAL branch does not
test draft state. Dispatch verified from the posted trigger and run 31588750658
rather than assumed from a green workflow.

Records the route shift: cycles 1-3 were native Codex Sol high, cycle 4 is
MiniMax M3 over OpenRouter chosen by the phase dispatcher, not by orchestrator
escalation -- which also makes it a genuine third opinion on a plan three Codex
cycles have failed.

…cle 4 F-4)

Cycle 4 passed the plan itself -- rescope bounded and reasoned, the three cycle-3
defects repaired, and the Plan-Gate checklist cleared -- and failed on companion
artifacts still describing the pre-rescope surface. That is the same sin as cycle
2 finding 6: the rail plan was reconciled and the documents around it were not.

Six stale statements fixed: plan.md's three-PRs prose and its PR-D-closes-#1378
heading, worklog's expanded-in-PR-C port note, the rail routing table's #1378 and
#1545 rows, the routing denominator, and two open decisions that read RESOLVED
where the truth is WITHDRAWN BY RESCOPE. Calling a withdrawn decision resolved is
the unearned-green wording this lane exists to remove.

F-5 (no implementation committed) is expected at this phase and the evaluator says
so; it discharges when PR-E dispatches.

Recorded at the owner's explicit instruction; the rebinding rationale stays in
drift D-31 and the live bindings in supervisor.md.

Compliance verified rather than asserted: codex-status shows only sol and luna
models and zero Fable sessions, and this orchestrator has spawned no Claude
subagents for the entire run -- every delegation went to Codex Sol through the
launcher, and the deep_analysis lane was never used. Nothing to unwind, nothing in
flight.

Also names the substitution that must not be made: the Codex-review lanes fall back
to Claude Opus rather than a Codex model, so an OpenAI-authored change is never
reviewed by an OpenAI-family model. Under a Claude squeeze that is the cheap move
and the one the policy forbids.

Supersedes part of D-26 on who cuts, not on the duty to report. This lane declares
no canary and runs no publish step, per D-3, so nothing had to stand down.

One coordination action was warranted: the fixes lane had told me it would bring a
first-coherent-checkpoint recommendation to the owner once #1539 landed, and #1539
has landed. Notifying them that Canary.3 authority sits with the runtime lane
prevents two lanes arriving at the owner with cut recommendations, which is the
collision the directive guards against.

The fixes lane pointed out that a SendMessage to a completed Fable evaluator would
restart a Fable session without looking like a launch, and marked their wave-1
evaluator agents dead for that reason.

Checked rather than assumed: every recorded thread in this run is
openai/gpt-5.6-sol at one effort, no Fable thread id appears anywhere, and this
orchestrator has spawned no Claude subagents at all. Nothing to mark dead.

Keeping the general rule: a completed agent is a resumable agent, so "I am not
launching anything" is not the same claim as "I am not starting a prohibited
model".

PR #1567 merged at b79eca5, closing #1566. Merged by the release coordinator
during a Claude 529 outage and re-verified here rather than accepted: main contains
it, the helper is present on trusted main, both items are status:shipped.

The deliberate follow-up is now valid and only now: the workflow shipped a
transcription rather than an import, because importing a module absent from trusted
main is what made the first attempt self-block. The general shape is that a change
introducing a trusted-path dependency cannot also be the change that first consumes
it.

…d hold #1570 immutable

Verified rather than accepted: #1570 touches zero fresh-ui files, the fresh-ui lock
is untouched since #1558, and the failing step is the frozen type-check reporting a
stale private lock. #1580 owns it and the runtime lane repairs it.

Not absorbing it even though the fix is one line: it would put a packages/fresh-ui
change on a .llm/tools gate-coverage PR, which is the class this lane's own
pre-merge check 6 exists to catch, and #1570's diff would stop matching its stated
scope.

Immutability is the operative constraint -- #1570 is mid-IMPL-EVAL at c740ff6 and
any push moves the head and invalidates the verdict, which this lane has already
paid for twice. Sequence is verdict, then #1580, then sync, then re-run.

#1580 closed on this lane's evidence. Two reusable rules came out of it.

A one-sided after-measurement is an assertion; a control makes it evidence. The
runtime lane had the green run, this lane had the red run at the head immediately
before, and neither could produce the pair alone.

And a merge-forward on another lane's PR is safe precisely when the owned paths are
byte-identical -- one diff decides whether the same head move is harmless or
verdict-destroying. That is why #1570 owes no re-evaluation despite its head moving
mid-eval, where twice before on this lane it did.

Also records the post-merge-marker versus Refs distinction for circular acceptance
boxes, which went back the other way.

PR #1570 merged at e391f3a. Verified on merged main rather than inferred from the
PR: arch:check exit 0 while now iterating 36 discovered roots, and
quality:scan:repo exit 0. Green at 36 with A14 origin-aware is a materially
different claim from the old green at 16 hand-listed roots, which excluded
packages/cli and therefore hid 54 A14 findings.

Three defects on one gate are closed: the root omission, the PR gate never scanning
.llm/tools and skipping entirely on an empty set, and the two-dot range that
enumerated other lanes' merged files.

Records that R-5 moved into PR-B after the implementer caught the plan's incoherent

…history claim

This checkout is shallow. 317e4b5 is the shallow boundary, not a root, and has
canonical parent 6a4ca79. So every history-shaped probe I ran was unreliable, and
my public rebuttal of the evaluator's F1 was false. Retracted on PR #1585 with the
citations.

The lesson is not "run more probes": I ran three and called them independent when
they were three expressions of one premise -- that the local object graph is
complete. Independence of method is not independence of premise, and a shallow clone
breaks that premise silently.

Fourth instance of one pattern on this lane, and the sharpest, because the wrong
answer was stable across repetition and therefore persuasive.

Withdraws the false framing from the rail plan and records the standing rule: check
is-shallow-repository before any ancestry claim, and use the compare API for
anything load-bearing.

…ale match

F1 was correct and my rebuttal was false. These worktrees are shallow, so
317e4b5 is the boundary rather than a root, and both shared-package commits are
canonical ancestors per the compare API. Corrected across all three surfaces F1
named, with a diagnostic note so the next re-walk does not repeat it.

The finding worth keeping is methodological: I ran three probes and called them
independent when they shared one premise -- that the local object graph is complete.
A shallow clone breaks that silently, so the wrong answer was stable across
repetition and therefore persuasive.

Also records gh-watch reporting a superseded verdict as terminal in 0s for the third
time. Consuming it would have blocked a PR whose finding was already fixed.

Both escalations were contradictions in this lane's brief rather than defects in the
work, and the implementer blocked on direction instead of resolving either
silently.

D-2 authorized: commit the generated agent-tools barrel, a mandatory derivative of
the owned embedded tool change, with a second generator run proving an empty status.
My gate list demanded that empty status while my boundary list omitted the file --
and this is the same coupling as D-22, which already cost PR-E a cycle and which I
recorded and then failed to apply.

D-1 authorized: fix exactly the three explicit-any findings the widened docs scan
exposed, with sound narrowing and no casts, suppressions or allowances. A gate that
deliberately widens coverage cannot ship red while deferring the first findings that
widening exposes, so the fix is in scope by consequence -- and a fourth finding
would not be.

The D-1/D-2 authorization was refused with a thread-store conflict because the
thread was mid-turn, and the turn-boundary watcher then observed the escalation
record completing rather than the authorized work. On that basis I reported the work
as in progress when no authorization had reached the agent and the head had not
moved.

D-9 already records that resume happens at the turn boundary and that active-writer
is the not-yet signal. The failure was sending immediately on receiving a decision
and treating urgency as a reason to skip the check.

Rule tightened: after a resume, confirm delivery by a fresh agent message or a moved
head before reporting on it. A zero exit from the wrapper is not delivery.

notification read exit 0 because the call was wrapped in a pipe. A watcher is a
wake-up mechanism, never evidence; verdicts get confirmed by matching the verdict
comment to the evaluated head.

Also records the good half of the same observation: the ready-flip double-fired
the phase-eval dispatch 8s apart and both runs succeeded with exactly one trigger
posted, which is #1566's fix confirmed in production on the next occurrence.

D-43: PR #1596's widened scanner imports ../docs/snippet-extractor.ts, but the
consumer bundle enumerates files from consumer-tools.json with no transitive
import resolution, so the installed quality/scan-code-quality.ts exits 1 with
"Module not found". Reproduced locally.

The reusable finding is the gate error, not the missing file: `gen:assets-barrel`
plus an empty `git status` proves the barrel is current with respect to the
manifest, not that the bundle is complete with respect to its own imports. It
passed twice while the bundle was broken. The barrel gate is two gates and I had
written only the first.

Fix brief requires a third manifest category for module dependencies plus a
closure test with a negative control -- not a tools entry with an invented
symptom, and never a second fence parser.

Audited every relative import of every bundled tool: exactly one gap exists and it
is this PR's own (quality/scan-code-quality.ts -> ../docs/snippet-extractor.ts),
and the extractor itself has zero imports, so registering it terminates the closure
with no cascade.

Both facts go in the brief because a closure test failing for pre-existing reasons
would have made it self-contradictory -- the brief error this lane has already made
twice.

Consuming it would have merged a PR carrying a reproducible consumer-facing defect on
the orchestrator's own certification -- the one thing the harness forbids outright.

D-45: the cancelled run did publish a formal FAIL_FIX, by editing the existing
openhands-agent-summary comment in place. Two facts I had wrong: a verdict can
arrive on a cancelled run (verdict_source=summary-file, written before cancellation),
and it can arrive by comment edit rather than a new comment.

D-44's rule -- keyed to a [PHASE: IMPL-EVAL] comment -- would have hidden exactly the
verdict it existed to protect. Corrected to anchor on OPENHANDS_VERDICT: or the
<!-- openhands-run --> marker's run_id, and to re-fetch before concluding "no verdict".
D-44's substance stands; its rule is superseded.

The verdict's F1/F2 independently match D-43, so the prepared brief needed only a
mapping of its contracts to the two findings.

The claim stays true; the pointer rots. An unverifiable gate evidence link is the same

that killed scaffold-static 45 minutes earlier. "Generation spent" and "evaluation
delivered" are different facts and only the second licenses a merge; a policy counting
triggers rather than verdicts eventually merges on a flake. Re-entered the documented
label lifecycle once, since a bootstrap that never ran the agent duplicates nothing.

D-48: my replacement poller paired a marker from one comment with a verdict from another
and reported FAIL_PLAN from an unrelated comment against a still-running run -- the same
conflation I had documented one entry earlier. Parse per-comment; never grep two facts
from a concatenated blob and treat them as related.

which is what separates them from task outcomes.

Rules confirmed: read a red as transport only when the job produced nothing; recover
with `gh run rerun` never a push, since a push invalidates the PASS bound to the head;
`--failed` is refused while any job in the run is still in flight; and verify partial
mutation (#1549 was 0/7 ticked) before re-running a job that runs after the mirror.

Four more falsified assumptions (A-7..A-10): a clean regenerated asset does not prove
the generated surface sound; a cancelled evaluator run can still carry a verdict; a spent
generation is not a delivered evaluation; evidence pinned to a commit hash dies at the
next history rewrite.

Retrospective finalised: seven brief errors caught by escalation (three of them test-command
permissions I wrote without running), four false verdict signals from my own supervision
loop including one that matched my own review comment as the evaluator's PASS, and the
transport flake window that consumed an authorized evaluation generation.

at 6aee2b4, and the repo-wide sweep result: exactly one occurrence exists, with none
latent outside the guard's published-closure scope, so acceptance box 3 rests on
evidence rather than assertion.

Two brief decisions are about not defeating the guard: a backticked issue ref would pass
because inline code spans are stripped, and is forbidden; and the reword must add no
factual claim, since the preceding sentence already states the whole mechanism.

Also records that `git worktree add -b <branch> origin/main` makes the leaf track main,

consumer import-closure       3 passed / 0 failed
published-JSDoc codename      4 passed / 0 failed   (main was 3 passed / 1 FAILED)

The last line is why #1612 mattered operationally: it took main from red to green on deno task test, which
unblocked #1599's otherwise-3340/3340 run.

What this lane was actually for

Not adding gates — repairing what gates mean. main's code-quality-repo had been red for nine consecutive
push runs, long enough to be background noise, which is the state in which a gate stops being read. quality:gate
carried three independent coverage defects on one line: a -- packages plugins pathspec that could never see
.llm/tools/**, an if ((${#args[@]})) that reported success having executed nothing, and two-dot diff semantics
that on one PR enumerated nine already-merged foreign files and zero lines of the PR under review. Every PR in this
rail was .llm/tools-only, so that gate had been reporting success on its own repairs.

A gate that reports success without executing is worse than a red one, because a red gate gets investigated and
a false green gets trusted.

The lane's final substantive PR proved that against the lane itself: my own asset-freshness gate passed twice,
including as an idempotence proof, while the installed consumer bundle could not resolve its own import. True
result, wrong question — currency against the manifest is not closure over imports. The IMPL-EVAL named it
independently, and the fix is a generic import-closure guard with a negative control rather than the one-line
manifest patch.

The record, including what went wrong

.llm/runs/release-0.0.6-internals--orchestration/ on chore/release-0.0.6-internals-orchestration
(head bddad90c2): cut-trace.md (7 merges, 10 tested assumptions), drift.md (51 entries),
retrospective.md, plan-quality-rail.md, research.md, supervisor.md, and per-slice dirs under slices/.

Three failures are recorded there against me rather than smoothed over, because they are the reusable part:

  1. I publicly rebutted a correct evaluator FAIL_FIX using three probes that all ran in a shallow clone, and
    had to withdraw it. Independence of method is not independence of premise — three commands sharing one
    corrupted premise produce three confirmations and zero information.
  2. Four false verdict signals from my own supervision tooling, one of which matched my own review comment
    as the evaluator's PASS. Consumed, it would have merged on my own certification — the harness's single
    unconditional prohibition.
  3. Seven escalations found my brief or plan wrong rather than the code, three of them test-command permissions
    I authored from memory without running. Escalate-don't-idle earned its place in every brief.

Lifecycle note, stated rather than quietly chosen

The status: taxonomy defines a completed close (terminal status:shipped) and a not-planned/wontfix close
(no status: label, "because it did not ship") — and a by-design non-merge record is neither. Literally this PR
shipped no code; in substance it did exactly what it existed for. Applying status:shipped, because the exception
is scoped specifically to not-planned/wontfix and leaving this unlabelled would file a completed orchestration
record alongside abandoned work. Milestone stays 0.0.6: that is the release it records.

Release ownership

ns006-fixes is sole release owner. This lane dispatched no release, holds no publish authority, and is not
requesting a cut.
