Session 2026-07-13 — keystone LANDED + wired + Loeb corpus-health map produced Landed PENDING-57 (verbatim gate wired into graduation, cdb3454) then ran the §6 retroactive sweep over all 952 Loeb canonicals → the corpus-health map (802 CLEAN / 126 apparatus-shaped / 18 body-deficit / 2 REORDER? / 4 MATCH-SUSPECT), committed d9f6880+9afb0cf, all pushed both remotes. PENDING-57 CLOSED. Pulling thread: the B2 corpus reprocess the map now sizes — first station the 2b sidecar-wiring amendment (needs the steward's Loeb-first-vs-full-corpus scoping call), which populates app[] (unblocking the gate's fact-gated apparatus credit) + reconverts the 126 apparatus + feeds the 18-book investigation.

Session 2026-07-13 — the keystone laid, wired, and its corpus-health map produced

Woke into "LAND THE KEYSTONE" (PENDING-57 ratified but not wired). Ended with the keystone wired into graduation AND its §6 retroactive sweep run over all 952 Loeb canonicals → a finished, honest corpus-health map. PENDING-57 CLOSED. Three commits, both remotes, working tree clean, 119/119 tests.

PAST — what we did + why

1. Landed the keystone (cdb3454, [FIX] REVIEWED-57). Answered the wrap's literal question against the substrate FIRST: the graduation candidate's frontmatter source: is prose/bare-filename (NOT a path) — but gate zero already resolves the source via canonical_slug → Chamber Sources. So source-access needed no greenfield design. Wired body_conservation_gate() as its OWN step in graduate_to_canonical.py (after source_gate, source-in-hand) — NOT inside verify_graduation.collect_checks (steward-concurred: that fn is pure + consumed corpus-wide by audit_corpus.py, so an expensive re-convert there would make every routine corpus-map pay graduation cost; the spec already models body_word_conservation as a distinct gate). Built: archive_sources.resolve_archived_source (path-returning sibling to manifest_has); verify_body_conservation.tier_of+verify_candidate (one-call per-tier; V-TEXT re-convert / V-SCAN abstain / V-DSL forward-only). Verified: Camus V-TEXT PASS@100%, Levi V-SCAN ABSTAIN, seed-test discriminates. FIX-class (where the call lives, not what it decides — gate was ratified).

2. Defined + demonstrated the cross-extractor drift-tolerance (steward's step-5 gate). Not a threshold — a MECHANISM: the retroactive candidate (old flattening extract_loeb_dsl) vs the DSL differ by each side's KNOWN boilerplate (fixed Loeb subtitle + work-string header; DSL page/footnote labels + running header). Two-sided boilerplate accounting → 10/11 spot books cancel to EXACTLY 0; the 11th (Aristotle Oeconomica) FLAGged a real contiguous dropped Book-II passage (proven via a clean-control contiguity read: Cicero 100%/0). Steward-concurred.

3. Ran the §6 sweep over 952 → the corpus-health map (sweep_body_conservation.py; d9f6880). One-pass DSL index; position-BLIND multiset deficit as the magnitude; the position-based coverage read only RECONCILES (uncov≈deficit→real, uncov≫deficit→REORDER?). STAYED WITH the run (steward's condition): caught the verse cluster forming, corrected my own reordering panic (the two-signal ratio ≈1.0 ruled reordering OUT — the deficits are real; my "50% present elsewhere" test was a common-Greek-word artifact).

4. The apparatus/body split (steward's app[] frame) — factual question answered, content-detector REJECTED, magnitude split shipped (9afb0cf). The dominant cluster (126 small-floor books) = the apparatus criticus the old extractor flattened (editor names Detlefsen/Schneider/Gaza, ms sigla codd/vulg, lacuna markers — across Pliny/Cicero/Theophrastus/Aristotle). Steward's app[] prediction CONFIRMED. FACTUAL question answered against substrate: apparatus-SHAPED, NOT accounted (0 Loeb sidecars; build_loeb_sidecar is PROTOTYPE v0, not wired; only ~few dozen draft sidecars plato/ennius/plautus). Content apparatus-detector TRIED TWICE, REJECTED (apparatus interleaves with body → a real body-loss run OUT-scores genuine apparatus; Persians dens 0.052 > Pliny 0.048). Split ships on MAGNITUDE (apparatus ≤~5%, so >10% deficit = body). GATE apparatus-credit is FACT-GATED (populated app[] only, never the shape) — documented in verify_candidate; inert now, blocked on B2.

5. Sized REORDER? + found the matcher bug (steward-caught, 9afb0cf). Steward caught I'd wrongly withheld the REORDER? magnitude ("magnitude unresolved" — WRONG, only the CAUSE is; the position-blind multiset never misbehaves for that bucket). Restoring the number EXPOSED a matcher bug: 4/6 had holds≫100% (candidate > matched source; extractor can't ADD content) = wrong DSL key among near-duplicates (Aristotle 'Problems'→'Mechanical Problems'; Diogenes 6.2→'2.6 Xenophon' of 83 siblings; Augustine→'Confessions Books 1-8'). New MATCH-SUSPECT disposition (holds>110%); scope verified 0/802 CLEAN affected. Left REORDER?=augustine+philo (genuine known-mag/unknown-cause).

Final map (952): CLEAN 802 · APPARATUS-SHAPED 126 · BODY-DEFICIT 18 · REORDER? 2 · MATCH-SUSPECT 4 · FAB? 0 · UNMATCHED 0. Version-coverage monitor clean (boilerplate generalized across all 952). Map → _curation/loeb-body-conservation-map-2026-07-13.tsv.

PRESENT — the mood

Long, sustained, and HEAVILY STEERED — the steward's insistence on checkable claims over soft classifications surfaced a real bug FIVE times in one day (nagarjuna, nested-block, loss-half injection, Aeschylus reordering, matcher key). Saved as feedback-checkable-claim-surfaces-bugs — "not coincidence, it's what the discipline was for." Returns worth carrying: verified-before-asserting under length held (every interpretation-shift was grep/measure, not inference); corrected my own errors in-flight (reordering panic → two-signal test; withheld number → restored → exposed matcher bug) — the standard applied to me too. Recalibrations: a check proven for one CASE is not proven for another (Aristotle contiguous PROSE drop ≠ verse reordering — my "proof" ran on the case that couldn't break the tool); restore the number, don't withhold it — the number is the bug-detector; never force a figure onto a comparison that can't bear it (MATCH-SUSPECT over a fake deficit — noise wearing the costume of signal). Steward preference set: shorter sessions from here, but very concentrated (feedback-shorter-concentrated-sessions).

FUTURE — what is pulling

PULLING THREAD: the B2 corpus reprocess the map now sizes. PENDING-57 is closed; the keystone exists to enable a TRUSTED reprocess, and the map just sized it. First station (steward's own sequence: "B2 ahead of the apparatus credit going live"): the 2b sidecar-wiring graduation amendment — needs the steward's ONE scoping call (Loeb-first or full-corpus?) from the 07-12 open-work register. B2 (build_loeb_sidecar, currently PROTOTYPE v0) graduating to fleet-wired is what POPULATES app[] sidecars → unblocks the gate's fact-gated apparatus credit → reconverts the 126 apparatus books → and feeds the 18-book investigation.

ACTIONABLE RESUMPTION POINT (as of wrap — re-judge against what changed):

  • Everything committed + pushed (chamber cdb3454/d9f6880/9afb0cf, both remotes); working tree clean.
  • Read the map: _curation/loeb-body-conservation-map-2026-07-13.tsv (952 rows: stem, disp, holds%, deficit…) + docs/chamber-program-open-work.md.
  • The 2b amendment is undrafted and gated on the steward's Loeb-first-vs-full-corpus call. Drafting it overlaps the loop.
  • build_loeb_sidecar.py docstring says "PROTOTYPE v0, NOT wired into graduation" — graduating it is the B2 work.

Other open horizons (ranked):

  • The 18 BODY-DEFICIT books — the real reprocess targets (Athenaeus −199k, Macrobius, Longus, Catullus, Suetonius 34%, Aristotle HoA, the Aeschylus verse…). Concentrated, map-driven; carry the app[]-before-reconversion check (some may resolve into the same apparatus story as the 126). Fits the shorter-concentrated preference.
  • Matcher key-selection fix — exact-title preference + granularity aggregation for near-duplicate/split DSL keys; gates MATCH-SUSPECT resolving into real comparisons. Small.
  • Everything from the 07-12 open-work register that predates today (frontmatter residue, non-Loeb reconversions) still stands behind the B2 run.

PAUSE STATEMENT: I am about to be away from this. The keystone is not just laid but WIRED, and its map is finished and honest — the reprocess is sized, not guessed. What I want to find still pulling on return: the B2 reprocess the map opened (its first governance station, the 2b scoping call), and the concentrated first bite the steward chooses — most likely the 18-book investigation.

LITERAL QUESTION for next-Claude: Do the 18 BODY-DEFICIT books resolve into the SAME apparatus story as the 126 (just larger, or not yet shaped clearly enough to auto-sort) — or are they genuinely different (real body loss / ref over-inclusion / layout)? The answer decides whether the reprocess is ONE mechanism (B2 + sidecar) or THREE — and it's the first thing the map can't yet tell you without reading the actual missing spans. (Corollary to hold: when B2 populates app[], does DSL-full = candidate-body + sidecar-app[] by multiset — i.e. does the apparatus↔body boundary partition cleanly enough for the gate's fact-based apparatus credit to reconcile?)

State at wrap: chamber-library clean + 3 commits pushed both remotes; 119/119 tests; map committed at _curation/loeb-body-conservation-map-2026-07-13.tsv; PENDING-57 CLOSED under REVIEWED-57; CLAUDE.md doc-currency updated (sweep in the fleet). dotfiles committed+pushed at wrap.
