### ⎯ SESSION 2 (context cleared ~11:00; same day, same ledger) ⎯
- **T~11:0x — wake: two findings from reading the surfaces rather than trusting them.**
(1) **`skill-harvest-register.md` carries a numbering collision** — two distinct live
proposals are both **#192**: the cited-vs-placed governance check (08-07 night, prose
entry) and the pre-commit fleet hook (08-08 wrap, table row). #193 already exists, so
the 08-08 row should be #194. Same shape as yesterday's `REVIEWED-113` catch, found one
step *later* — after filing, not before. Not corrected here: the register is the
steward-facing surface and renumbering a filed proposal is a governance edit, not a typo.
Surfaced for the steward's call.
(2) **This ledger's `Authorization moves` section is empty** on a day that placed
**REVIEWED-97 and REVIEWED-98** and filed **PENDING-114, -115, -116**. The section exists
precisely to record those. A say–do seam at the ledger's own layer: the instrument was
open all day and the moves went unrecorded in it. Recorded retrospectively below, marked
as such.
- **T~11:3x — read a printed summary instead of an exit code, while diagnosing that class.**
Ran the fleet with `tail -2`, saw `33/34 checks passed`, and nearly reported the fleet
green — overturning a *correct* banked finding on a bad read. Caught only because
REVIEWED-100's design forced the question *what is red, mechanically*. Then compounded
it: told the steward the tally "counts the skip as a pass". It does not — `total =
len(_results)`, skips are a separate list. **Inferred instead of reading the code, in the
middle of naming the read-the-substrate class.** Corrected to the steward unprompted.
The real defect was narrower and stands: the summary enumerated skips and not failures.
- **T~11:5x — the discrimination control caught its own defect.** The induced-red probe
anchored injection on `failures = [`, which sits *below* the tally lines, so in the three
suites that capture `total` into a variable the counters were frozen before the induced
failure existed → three false negatives. **Requiring BOTH directions is what surfaced it**
(a one-direction probe would have read 4/7 as a code defect). Re-anchored above the tally:
7/7 discriminate. Recorded because the control failing *as a control* is the outcome the
discrimination gate is for, not an embarrassment.
- **T~12:0x — a repo doc's citation opened a closed item whose deferral had come due.**
chamber `graduation-spec.yaml` cites "PENDING-53" for the cross-repo binding gap. Not in
`~/PENDING.md` — it is **archived**, ruled REVIEWED-53 2026-07-10 with a *documentation*
remedy; its Option 3 (the actual mechanism) was deferred **pending recurrence**. The
archived body describes the July incident as *"caught only by chance"* — the same sentence
fits `118f411`. **Two instances, one month apart.** I had advised the steward to let this
wait; that advice was wrong on the facts and was corrected in the same turn. ⚠ Second-order:
the wake's deferred-decision checker does not read **archived** PENDING bodies — harvest
#191's shape (correct everywhere it looks, not looking where the quarry lives).
- **Instruments counter (for /wrap-up §8), session 2:** **1 run** (`induced_red_control.py`)
· **1 with a control written before first execution** (the property — *a failing check is
named in the summary* — was stated before the probe ran, and both directions were required
from the start, which is what caught the probe's own anchor bug) · **0 duplicating
something already banked**.

## Authorization moves
*Recorded retrospectively at session-2 init from the session memory, **not logged live** —
the omission is itself the finding above.*
- **REVIEWED-97 (PENDING-113)** — disposition (vi). Drafted by executor, corrected by jurist,
corrected upward by executor, **placed by steward**. Verified clean (single heading, seven
load-bearing parts). Filed at 97 not 113 per PENDING-110's independent-sequence rule.
- **REVIEWED-98 (PENDING-114)** — scripture quoted inside a host text. Steward **AUTHORIZED
(b)+(c)**; placed same day, verified clean (L1080, 8/8 parts).
- **PENDING-115** filed `[HARDENING]` — two mechanism defects blocking remediation step 3.
- **PENDING-116** filed `[PROPOSAL]` — run the fleet on the change that breaks it.
- **PENDING-117** filed `[PROPOSAL]` — the cross-repo half, resuming PENDING-53 Option 3.
Filed on **corrected** grounds: the literal deferral condition ("recurs across the ~30-source
Making batch") is **NOT** met, `118f411` is the same-repo analog rather than a second
cross-repo instance, and REVIEWED-73's "5 standing FAILED rows" are **repaired**
(`validated: 14, failures: []`). The real argument is the confidence asymmetry: building
half a gate raises confidence faster than coverage, and the surface that *demonstrates*
the protection is now the surface that hides its extent.
- **Numbering collision RESOLVED:** the 08-08 hook row renumbered **192 → 194** (the later
filing yields; #192 and #193 were both held from 08-07 night), PENDING-116's `Related:`
citation repaired, the row's *target* corrected (it named `.git/hooks/` — the hook is
global via `core.hooksPath`), and its status set **BUILT** with commits. Census by
mechanism: **#190–#194, one filing each.**
- **Awaiting, unauthorized:** skill-harvest **#190, #191, #192, #193** (#194 is BUILT).
- **T~12:2x — the day's failures concentrate in CHECKS, not in writes.** Five instances now,
all verification-vocabulary: `grep 'Instruments field'` against `**Instruments** field` ·
`tail -2` over a summary whose failure sat above the fold · inferring the tally's arithmetic
instead of reading `total = len(_results)` · the induced-red probe anchored below the
counters · and a duplicate-census counting *mentions* including the ones I had just written.
Every write this session was sound on first attempt. **The signal is not carelessness in the
work; it is that I reach for a check whose vocabulary I have not verified against the thing
it must match** — the substrate-vs-description class, pointed at my own instruments.
