New thread: the jurist's remarks on the two forks → build the wiring → residual-(b). See the 07-17 afternoon session.]*

 - [Session 2026-07-16 — constitution-close block, most of Block 1 closed](session-2026-07-16-constitution-close-block-most-closed.md) — Executed the block-discipline ([[feedback-constitution-as-block-then-pull-based-corpus]] + the new [[feedback-close-thoroughly-no-frequent-deferrals]] — steward: *frequent deferrals is how we came to the current state; close thoroughly*). Built the block-map (`_curation/constitution-close-block-map-2026-07-16.md`; **PENDING-46..57 all verified CLOSED**), then ran the §6 loop tail through the jurist **round by round — each pass caught a real thing, none resisted**: block-map ruling (#1 reconciliation MOOT → REVIEWED-58 gates on **residual-(b)** not a 128-run; 126→128; #6→**candidates register** not spec; #2 reclassified PROPOSAL+CTS-precondition; meta-lesson **"closable-now is a claim to check"**); OQ-3/OQ-5 (A3 gate = FLAG + **hard-floor-on-legibility**; decouple #1/#2 with a **checkable shed/inherit pair**); #1 light-gate PASSED (`anchors[]` *originates* in #2; `sections`/`provenance` = **produced-without-proof**); #3 A3 review PASSED ((a)-split evidence-alone-floors; **cold-instance AUDITS / jurist ADJUDICATES** — he *declined the auditor role*; **release mechanism** — I'd specified block not un-block). **CLOSED: #1 text (wiring→REVIEWED-58 on residual-(b)) · #3 A3 RATIFIED (REVIEWED-59, PENDING-59 filed) · #6 (datum-not-ledger=C-1) · #7 · #8 + PENDING-53 (records-drift caught by substrate-check — stale "owed/uncommitted" markers).** chamber **ahead-11** (Gitea/steward push). **⚠ PULLING THREAD: FINISH the block** — draw the CTS boundary + draft **#2 (citation amendment)**, then #4/#5, + land the ratified A3 into the spec (v2.1.0?); then corpus-into-spec opens. **FIRST MOVE: #2 — draw the CTS boundary FIRST** (internal CTS-URN allowed vs external CTS alignment leashed pending the tier survey). **LITERAL Q: does the CTS boundary separate cleanly, or does #2 need the withheld TEI/CTS/Perseus tier survey first?** Read the session file at wake. *[Superseded 2026-07-17: block taken to drafted-whole + mostly-ratified — #2 RATIFIED (REVIEWED-60), #4/#5 RATIFIED (REVIEWED-61), F-5 dispositioned; CTS boundary drew CLEANLY (B-confirmed). New thread: execute the block-close plan. See 07-17.]*
