# L1 Reliability — Canonical Workstream Tracker
|
||
|
||
> *Established 2026-05-28 (Symmetria-pulse decision: do once, well, so future-selves don't reconstruct state from a chain of per-session memories).*
|
||
> Sibling tracker to `project-arc-rework`. Read this at /wake-up for any L1-touching work, before composing the briefing. Append substantive moves at /wrap-up.

|
||
|
||
## Current state (as of 2026-06-06)
|
||
|
||
- **The reply arc is COMPLETE and the baton is with Seb.** Three notes pushed 2026-06-06 (CM-AI `b255e74` → `0ecb45e` → `2e87bab`): Tier A reply to his cover note (`b4daa71`) + same-day addendum + Tier B code-grounded read. Do not re-enter L1 until Seb responds or pushes — his move.
|
||
- **mindfabric-00 root-caused**: found event-loop-pinned 4 days; CPU-profiled (proven, not inferred) to the temporal causal-chain path — `getChainsContainingSeq` `json_each` full scan over 272,172 chains per created link + chain-bloat feedback (new 2-node chain per no-extension) + uncancelled 30s timeout. Restarted clean; **re-wedge expected** as temporal re-encounters the dense pre-B1.1 graph (280k edges / 7,959 nodes, top fan-out 324); restart = holding pattern. Backup at `~/.capablemind/backups/mindfabric-00-20260606-prefix-state` (same-disk APFS clone, 224/224 verified).
|
||
- **Graduation mystery SOLVED**: every slot BOOTSTRAPPING since the 2026-04-18 cutover, zero transitions in 7 weeks, local Ollama wired — terminal-without-teacher BY CONSTRUCTION (only trigger = training-cycle-deployed model; teacher paused → training cursor 0 → no rungs). Three exits offered to Seb (name-the-terminality / C1-class floors per surface / teacher-on-demand windows).
|
||
- **Proposals in flight**: A2.4 degraded-environment-refusal invariant (text drafted in Note 1); epistemic-gates §8.2 telemetry MAY→SHALL; temporal remediations in PR order (indexed `last_seq` first; PR offer made for #1+#4); B1.3 yes ×4 with cm-ctl-export-not-/health mechanism; /health unauthed → liveness/detail split. **PENDING-27** (steward-instance telemetry export contract) awaits steward+jurist.
|
||
- **Operational flags**: mindfabric-00 has NEVER completed a backup (`backup.last_success: null`, CRIT); full /health unauthenticated on `*:3011` (VPN-reachable) incl. `idle` presence transitions + budget.
|
||
- **Repo state**: BMF on `main` @ `1a61504` (was stranded on feat-branch 32 commits stale — corrected); CM-AI @ `2e87bab`, clean, pushed. Evidence in `l1-reliability/evidence/` (sample, log tail, profile+census, health JSON).
|
||
- **Stale below this line:** the 2026-05-28 state block is preserved for lineage; the Monday-package framing completed via the 2026-06-05 commit wave + this reply arc.
|
||
|
||
## Previous state (as of 2026-05-28 — superseded)
|
||
|
||
- **Workstream status:** L1 is **co-authored steward + Seb** (since 2026-05-23). This week one co-author (Seb) is on Peter's block; the other co-author (steward + executor) used the runway to continue the joint work. **Target 2026-06-01 (Monday)**: resume the co-authored work with a substantive package ready — *"would bring him a lot of relief"* (steward 2026-05-28). Gate-blocked from code touches to L1-core until Seb is back; not blocked from continuing the co-authored work in artifacts.
|
||
- **Project deadline:** **shifted from 2026-06-01 to mid-July 2026** (steward 2026-05-28). The runway expansion is what permits doing this well; it does not authorize coasting.
|
||
- **Seb availability:** unavailable for L1 review until **Monday 2026-06-01 earliest** — finishing a big block for Peter, then reorienting (steward 2026-05-28). Any reach-out is packaged for Monday, not earlier.
|
||
- **Gate question (unresolved):** *Did Seb's `bd70ceb` + `e8c5fb7` (D1–D10) on BetterMemories.io already touch N6 or the recall path — do the four findings (orphaned epistemic signals · dead similarity probe · ungoverned causal subsystem · no benchmark) still hold against his latest?* Those commits are **not on `origin/main` and not on local disk at `3bc8b75`** as of 2026-05-28 morning. Resolution gated by Seb's return — and forms part of Monday's package (we hand him the gate-question cleanly stated, not lost in noise).
|
||
- **Repo state:**
|
||
- `BetterMemories.io` on `main` @ `3bc8b75` (Seb's test-bench bundle 2026-05-24). Origin moved overnight 2026-05-27→28 with two infra commits (`5b0179c`, `99a67b5`) — not L1 fixes.
|
||
- `CapableMind-AI` on `main` @ `d2a0052` (the Hindsight deep-read deliverable, 2026-05-27). 8 untracked research files (lens-*, register/tooling docs, methodology, agent-circle survey) deliberately deferred for steward review.
|
||
- **Monday's package (the converging artifact, shape locked this session):** the co-authored work brought to a point where Seb can re-enter as co-author (not as territory-holder reviewing an outsider's draft). Tracker as-is + A1 draft + B1 proposal. Sized for usefulness on resumption, not for politeness. See *Monday proposition* section below.
|
||
- **This week's sequence (REVISED 2026-05-28 mid-session after contamination catch):** tracker (done). A1 draft (drafted, corrected for persistence finding, audit-pending). **Four-pass pre-build audit** (steward-authorized after the executor surfaced frame-inheritance contamination — the A1 draft had been composed past the verification). The audit re-tests load-bearing claims from yesterday's deep-read against substrate, with explicit scope-claimed-vs-scope-tested discipline. Co-author branch **deferred until the audit completes** — building on un-audited claims would propagate the same contamination into Seb's review surface.
|
||
- **Audit document:** `CapableMind-AI:docs/thinking/David/l1-reliability/pre-build-audit-2026-05-28.md`. **Committed + pushed `033e255` on capableMind_docs/main** along with A1 split (A1' consumer-surface + A1'' qualitative-axis) and the Hindsight deliverable's editorial clasp-note. Becomes part of Monday's package.
|
||
- **Monday's package reshape (post-audit-decision):** tracker + corrected amendment + audit findings + B1 sketch (sized to what Pass 3 reveals) + small open asks. Smaller artifact; truer artifact. No co-author branch.
|
||
- **Co-author build authority (steward 2026-05-28):** L1 co-authorship grants the authority to **build a working solution on a separate branch** (not main) and present it to Seb as a real artifact for collective agreement before finalizing. **Authority ≠ should** — exercising it requires a verified substrate; the audit pause-before-build is precisely how the authority gets honored without contaminating Seb's review surface.
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Monday package (target 2026-06-01)
|
||
|
||
Steward framing 2026-05-28: *"Still would like to have a working proposition for Seb by Monday — it would bring him a lot of relief."* The package is the **co-authored work brought to a point where the other co-author can re-enter** — not material prepared *for* him to review. Relational care (no rush, acknowledge his Peter block) is real and stays; the framing as territorial submission was stale and dropped.
|
||
|
||
**Posture:**
|
||
- **Continue the joint work, don't curate.** A1 + B1 are co-author drafts at usable size.
|
||
- **Hand the resumption point cleanly.** The gate-question is one line; the open asks are small and sequenceable.
|
||
- **Acknowledge the bandwidth he's on.** *"You were on Peter's block; here's where the co-authored work went in the meantime."*
|
||
|
||
**Confirmed package contents (DRAFTED 2026-05-28):**
|
||
1. **Tracker as-is** (this file). Speaks engineering + governance + commits + code loci.
|
||
2. **Audit doc** (`pre-build-audit-2026-05-28.md`) — the load-bearing artifact; re-validates parent + finds items 9/10 unshipped + right-sizes B1/C2 + surfaces I-CF carve-outs. Committed `033e255`.
|
||
3. **A1' amendment** (`amendment-epistemic-integrity-consumer-surface.md`) — finishes parent items 9+10 (numeric-axis consumer surface). No schema migration. ~125 lines including tests. Committed `033e255`.
|
||
4. **A1'' amendment** (`amendment-epistemic-integrity-qualitative-axis.md`) — qualitative-axis extension. Persistence strategy locked to **Option A** (full schema migration, no backfill v1) per steward 2026-05-28. Depends on A1' landing first. ~310 lines including tests. Committed `033e255`.
|
||
5. **B1 sketch** (`proposal-b1-causal-edge-governor-sketch.md`) — reframed at post-audit scope: B1.1 mechanical (1–3 lines), B1.2 epistemic (depends on A1''), B1.3 score-threshold tightening (independent). Pending commit.
|
||
6. **Cover note** (`cover-note-seb-resumption-2026-05-28.md`) — short letter for Seb's resumption; orientation + literal asks in priority order. Pending commit.
|
||
7. **Gate question** — stated cleanly inside cover note + audit doc.
|
||
|
||
**All artifacts on `capableMind_docs/main` as of next commit. PENDING-24 updated in `~/dotfiles/PENDING.md`.**
|
||
|
||
**Out of scope this week (steward 2026-05-28):**
|
||
- D1 harness scaffolding — would split this week's attention. Pick up after the Monday resumption.
|
||
- BMF runtime restart — gated by Seb's N6 fix.
|
||
|
||
**Cover-note shape:** a short 3–5 line orientation before the tracker — *no rush; here's where the co-authored work went in the week you were on Peter's block; we'd love your read on B1 when you're back.* Drafted closer to Monday once A1 + B1 are settled.
|

|
||
## Active umbrella: PENDING-24 (2026-05-27)
|
||
|
||
Six sub-items from the Hindsight deep-read. None acted on unilaterally. Authorization paths and current state:
|
||
|
||
All six sub-items are **co-authored** (steward + Seb on L1 since 2026-05-23). The "owners" column reflects who *leads* the drafting given current co-author bandwidth — not territorial division. Jurist review is governance, not co-author-changed.
|
||
|
||
| ID | Tag | Subject | Lead (current bandwidth) | Status |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| **A1** | [PROPOSAL] | Thread `means_of_knowing` / `earned_confidence` to recall as output provenance (+ optional ranking signal). *"Amendment 61 for the qualitative axis."* L1-only fields; the L2-coupled belief-schema version stays PARKED. | steward-led drafting + executor; jurist reviews | **DRAFTED 2026-05-28** as sub-amendment `amendment-epistemic-integrity-qualitative-axis.md`; awaiting steward read; **co-author branch build authorized for this week** (presents working PR as part of Monday's package); then jurist + Seb on resumption |
|
||
| **A2** | [PROPOSAL] | If we adopt the LongMemEval/LoCoMo benchmark, record it as a **floor not a ceiling** (cannot score epistemic integrity; Hindsight is the cautionary case of optimising it away). | steward + jurist | lives alongside A1, bind to D1 |
|
||
| **B1** | [PROPOSAL] | Epistemic governor on causal-edge generation — per-unit cap + prior-only constraint (mechanical, from Hindsight's `_cap_links_per_unit`) **+** mint causal edges as held/low-confidence `means_of_knowing=inference`, promotion gated on coherence (epistemic). Defuses N6 + prevents its sibling failures. | steward-led drafting + executor while Seb on Peter block; co-shaped with Seb on resumption; jurist reviews governor shape | this week's second move (proposal-sized) |
|
||
| **C1** | [HARDENING] | Bundle a local always-available cross-encoder fallback so recall quality doesn't depend on slot graduation. Hindsight runs an 80 MB local model unconditionally. | co-authored; Seb has engineering context closest to the implementation surface | post-Monday |
|
||
| **C2** | [HARDENING] | Fix or honestly remove the dead similarity probe (`orchestrator.ts:363`, zero callers). REVIEWED-18 inert until C2 resolves. | co-authored; Seb closest to the wiring decision | post-Monday; fits the L1 fix-plan one-PR-per-issue discipline |
|
||
| **D1** | [HARDENING] | Wire L1 to LongMemEval/LoCoMo via an adapter exposing `retain_batch_async` + `recall_async`. Plug-in seam: dataset/generator ABCs. Bind to A2. | co-authored harness work | deferred to post-Monday this session |
|
||
|
||
**Set aside on record (not for re-opening):** BMF-on-Hindsight-substrate. Relational (L1 is Seb's mechanism / steward's Chamber dream); sovereignty (Postgres/Oracle vs L1's local-first sqlite+LanceDB+file-logchain); governance (Hindsight has no authorization loop / logchain immutability / external-review hook). We take *technique + validation*, not substrate. The paper-vs-code divergence is itself a caution: borrow from their code, not their paper.
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## The four findings (Hindsight deep-read, 2026-05-27)
|
||
|
||
Each verified against `BetterMemories.io@3bc8b75` source. Re-verification against Seb's `bd70ceb`/`e8c5fb7` is the gate.
|
||
|
||
### (a) Orphaned epistemic-kind signals — `means_of_knowing` / `earned_confidence`
|
||
|
||
- **Locus:** computed at write in `classification.ts:459/555/1093`; **absent from query-router and synthesizer** (verified: no recall-time reader).
|
||
- **Diagnosis:** orphaned exactly as numeric confidence was *before* Amendment 61. The qualitative epistemic axis is computed and discarded.
|
||
- **Owner:** A1 (jurist + steward).
|
||
- **State:** pre-Seb-D1–D10 verification; re-confirm after his commits land.
|
||
|
||
### (b) Dead similarity probe — REVIEWED-18 inert
|
||
|
||
- **Locus:** `orchestrator.ts:363` — `setSimilarityProbe` has **zero callers** in the runtime (verified).
|
||
- **Diagnosis:** the observation-recall coupling authorized as REVIEWED-18 (2026-04-03) is dead code. Quality gate runs heuristic-only; silent.
|
||
- **Owner:** C2 (Seb).
|
||
- **State:** pre-Seb-D1–D10 verification; high-confidence finding (zero callers is easy to verify).
|
||
|
||
### (c) Ungoverned causal subsystem — N6
|
||
|
||
- **Loci:** mint at `temporal/pipeline.ts:209-261`; full-table scans at `storage-sqlite.ts:421/836-850/883`.
|
||
- **Diagnosis:** ~42 causal edges per event (245k edges + 238k chains from ~5,752 events), 97%+ coherence-unevaluated, `json_each` full-scan in the ingest hot loop. **The epistemic failure (no governor on inference) and the operational crash are the same failure.**
|
||
- **Provenance:** Original prime-suspect (entity fuzzy-match `storage.ts:262`) was **exonerated** by 2026-05-27 EXPLAIN run — corrected in `audit-delta-2026-05-24.md` §2g (`f97557d`). The temporal causal subsystem is the real N6.
|
||
- **Owner:** B1 (Seb mechanism + jurist governor shape).
|
||
- **State:** highest-value finding; integrates the epistemic and operational concerns. Exact hot-caller still unpinned (needs Seb's trace).
|
||
|
||
### (d) No external benchmark
|
||
|
||
- **Diagnosis:** L1 has no LongMemEval/LoCoMo scoreboard. A1's ranking changes and B1's N6 governor become *validatable* only against a benchmark. Hindsight tops LongMemEval despite removing its epistemic typing precisely because the benchmark gives no credit for epistemic integrity → CapableMind's governed angle is *unmeasured by the field* (its risk + its moat).
|
||
- **Owner:** D1 (steward-side scaffold; Seb to integrate). A2 (jurist) governs the "floor not ceiling" posture.
|
||
- **State:** harness adapter could be scaffolded on `3bc8b75` this week.

|
||
- **A1 sub-amendment draft (2026-05-28):** `CapableMind-AI:docs/thinking/David/amendments/amendment-epistemic-integrity-qualitative-axis.md` — extends `amendment-epistemic-integrity.md` (parent, REVIEWED-19); status DRAFT awaiting steward sign-off + jurist + Seb-on-resumption review. Uncommitted on `capableMind_docs/main` working tree.
|
||
- **Audit-delta (N1–N6 + N6 correction):** `CapableMind-AI:docs/thinking/David/l1-reliability/l1-audit-delta-2026-05-24.md` (origin/main `0e56bf7` + §2g correction in `f97557d`).

|
||
- **BMF backlog state snapshot:** `~/.claude/projects/-Users-davidglidden/memory/project-bmf-backlog-state-2026-05-22.md` (point-in-time read of Seb's activity gap + near-term steward-shape work).
|
||
- **GH issues (open):** `CapableMind-ai/betterMemories_app#165` (H2 battery suppression), `#167` (H4 hook spam + logchain pollution). Comments posted; awaiting Seb (now Monday+).
|
||
- **PENDING / REVIEWED registry:** `~/PENDING.md` (PENDING-24 is the current L1 umbrella; PENDING-17/19/20/21/23 are L1-historical). `~/REVIEWED.md` (REVIEWED-18/19 selection-layer + epistemic-integrity authorized 2026-04-03; REVIEWED-20–23 H3/H2/H4/cross-cutting + skill-harvest authorized 2026-05-14/27).
|
||
- **L1 spec corpus:** `CapableMind-AI:docs/thinking/David/l1-reliability/` (eight+ thinking docs).
|
||
- **BMF runtime:** `~/_Dev/BetterMemories.io` on `main` @ `3bc8b75`; launchd plist `~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.capablemind.bettermemories.plist` (BMF currently parked; restorable via `launchctl bootstrap gui/$(id -u) <plist>` only after Seb's fix lands).
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Decisions made
|
||
|
||
- **2026-03-21:** Executor Agency Directive added to `~/CLAUDE.md` (REVIEWED-1). The contamination-problem partial mitigation; treats outputs about the system's own reliability with appropriate epistemic caution.
|
||
- **2026-04-03:** Selection-layer shipped — REVIEWED-18 (Observation-Recall Coupling, PENDING-16) + REVIEWED-19 (Epistemic Integrity, PENDING-17 = Amendment 61). The numeric-confidence chain authorized end-to-end.
|
||
- **2026-05-14:** H1 mechanical fix shipped (#163/#164); H3 mechanical fix shipped (PR #172, spec amendment v1.7→v1.8 per REVIEWED-20); H2 + H4 surfaced to Seb as design-calls (PENDING-19/21 → REVIEWED-21/23 → comments on `#165`/`#167`). Cross-cutting [PROPOSAL] PENDING-20 filed as L1 governance entry; L2 elevation deferred to post-May per REVIEWED-22.
|
||
- **2026-05-23:** L1 co-authorship opened by Seb; `~/CLAUDE.md` ratified the steward as "now also co-author with Seb for L1."
|
||
- **2026-05-27 day:** N6 root-cause corrected — entity fuzzy-match exonerated, temporal causal subsystem identified. Rogue duplicate launchd plist booted + disabled (durable N5 fix).
|
||
- **2026-05-27 evening:** PENDING-24 filed (six sub-items from Hindsight analysis). BMF-on-Hindsight-substrate set aside on record.
|
||
- **2026-05-28:** Canonical L1-reliability tracker established (this file). Seb's L1-unavailability through Monday earliest acknowledged; this week's L1 surface scoped to steward-side moves.
|
||
|
||
## Decisions deferred (and why)
|
||
|
||
- **The actual code fixes (A1–D1):** authorization paths split between jurist (A1/A2/B1 shape) and Seb (B1/C1/C2/D1 mechanism). Steward-side drafting can proceed this week; Seb integration waits.
|
||
- **BMF-on-Hindsight-substrate:** set aside on record 2026-05-27; do not re-open without new constitutional ground (relational / sovereignty / governance).
|
||
- **L2 elevation of the cross-cutting honest-degradation [PROPOSAL] (PENDING-20):** parked through end of May 2026 per global CLAUDE.md.
|
||
- **Restart BMF runtime:** deferred until Seb's code fix for N6. Restore command stored above.
|
||
- **Locating Seb's `bd70ceb` / `e8c5fb7`:** gated by Seb's Monday+ return.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Skill-harvest candidates (L1-related, propose-only per PENDING-23)
|
||
|
||
- **`bmf-diagnose`** (recommended): the N6 EXPLAIN method — read-only SQL diagnosis of suspected hot-loop full-scans (per the 2026-05-27 correction of the prime suspect). Generalises beyond N6: any BMF performance suspicion → EXPLAIN before asserting cause. **Carried unauthorized from 2026-05-27 wrap.**
|
||
- **`/deep-read` or `/comparative-analysis`** (weak candidate, honest uncertainty): the method used 2026-05-27 evening — N source-grounded sub-agents under Symmetria §5 preamble → executor re-verifies load-bearing claims against source → durable artifact + PENDING umbrella. Uncertain whether it's distinct enough from the `/landscape-scan` + `/tooling-scan` family or just their deep-dive mode.

## Chronological log (most recent first; append substantive moves)
|
||
|
||
### 2026-06-06 — The reply arc: three notes, mindfabric-00 root-caused, PENDING-27
|
||
Hard commitment ("we must do this tomorrow") discharged by 12:24. Probe found mindfabric-00 event-loop-pinned since Jun 2 (51 CPU-h/72 wall-h, /health silent) → Note 1 (`b255e74`): Tier A + reframe (retry-without-escalation class, not cold-start; BOOTSTRAPPING-as-contract; A2.4 text). Inspector profile (SIGUSR1→CDP, 3,332 samples) → Note 2 (`0ecb45e`): pin PROVEN = temporal `tryExtendChains`/`getCausalEdgesFromSqlite` (json_each scan over 272k chains; chain-per-edge bloat; uncancelled timeout); post-restart graduation read: ALL slots BOOTSTRAPPING since 04-18, zero transitions, 7 weeks, Ollama wired; backup-never-succeeded CRIT flag. Note 3 Tier B (`2e87bab`): terminal-without-teacher mechanism traced to `training/index.ts:722` (3 exits offered); C1 = permanent path on teacherless tier; circle-forward misread corrected in-note (fire-and-forget, needs peer-health gating, fix home = pairing orchestrator); temporal remediations in PR order + PR offer; B1.3 privacy ruling (steward dwell → cm-ctl export, never pollable) + /health-unauth finding (idle=presence!) + **PENDING-27 filed** (4-clause telemetry-export contract, jurist read requested). Instance restarted ×2, backed up (steward-ordered). Method note: inferred-vs-measured split in Note 1 meant the profile's overturning of the lean cost nothing but sharpening.
|
||
|
||
### 2026-05-28 — Tracker established · Seb unavailable through Monday · ARC counterbalance shipped
|
||
- Stinkkatze fragment published to ARC (`d6f5cdb`) as the light counterbalance the wake queued.
|
||
- Symmetria pulse caught the wake's premature "A or B" framing for L1; three real options surfaced; steward chose tracker-first.
|
||
- Seb's L1-unavailability through Monday earliest (steward, mid-pulse) reshapes the week: A1 (jurist territory) is the highest-leverage steward-side move; D1 scaffolding possible with re-baseline budgeted.
|
||
- This file created. MEMORY index updated to point at the tracker instead of duplicating L1 detail.
|
||

### 2026-05-27 evening — Hindsight deep-read + L1 epistemic-vs-mechanical analysis → PENDING-24
|
||
- Source-grounded reads (L1 spec / L1 runtime `3bc8b75` / Hindsight clone) under Symmetria §5 preamble; executor re-verified every load-bearing claim against source.
|
||
- Verified reversal: Hindsight's shipped code ≠ paper (epistemic-typing + per-fact confidence + CARA removed in migration `g2h3i4j5k6l7`); they top LongMemEval *because the benchmark gives no credit for epistemic integrity* → CapableMind's angle is unmeasured by the field (risk + moat; the bet is vindicated, not threatened).
|
||
- Answer to *refactor with our tools or are they showing us the way?*: **mostly our tools** — L1 even/ahead at parts level (RRF k=60 module-weighted, cross-encoder, hybrid recall, live numeric confidence chain). Gap is read-side; the four findings above.
|
||
- Deliverable committed + pushed `d2a0052`. PENDING-24 filed.
|
||
|
||
### 2026-05-27 day — L1 runaway killed · N6 root-cause CORRECTED
|
||
- "BMF offline" was false: N5 duplicate `com.capablemind.bmf` (KeepAlive=true) had resurrected and run **26h pegged** (PID 848); the 2026-05-25 "booted out" never held.
|
||
- Read-only `EXPLAIN` overturned the audit-delta's prime suspect: entity fuzzy-match (`storage.ts:262`, 1,717 rows, indexed) **exonerated**; reconciliation **exonerated**. **Real N6 = temporal causal subsystem** (~42 edges/event; full-table scans). Exact hot-caller still unpinned (Seb's trace).
|
||
- Killed PID 848; rogue job booted + **DISABLED** (durable N5 fix); legit job booted (restorable, not disabled); 70 MB log truncated; BMF genuinely parked.
|
||
- Posted #170 `issuecomment-4553635193`; corrected audit-delta §2g (`f97557d`, pushed).
|
||
- Hermes Agent scout delivered (PENDING-22): CapableMind ahead on epistemic integrity; SKILL.md is the lesson for pain#4; governance flag = autonomous self-write violates loop-is-load-bearing.
|
||
- Scan-skill family built + generalised + proven (`/landscape-scan` + `/tooling-scan` + per-workstream lens cards).
|
||
|
||
### 2026-05-24/25 — Validation test run · D2 fix VALIDATED but replay throttled-then-stuck · N1–N6 audit-delta
|
||
- Seb engaged: BMF `3bc8b75` test-bench bundle + `bd70ceb` recall-root-cause + `e8c5fb7` plan-009 with D1–D10.
|
||
- Validation test run on real-history instance: **D2 slot-wiring fix VALIDATED**; replay (5,752 events) throttled then stuck.
|
||
- Six findings (N1–N6) in `l1-audit-delta-2026-05-24.md` (origin/main `0e56bf7`). N6 originally attributed to entity fuzzy-match (overturned 2026-05-27).
|
||
- #170 reply + 2 follow-ups posted (`4529529692`/`4532196859`/`4532565029`). BMF taken offline.
|
||
|
||
### 2026-05-23 — Territory survey · Lessons-from-MemPalace · Attention-as-upstream-of-memory · L1 co-authorship opened
|
||
- Three durable artifacts pushed to `capableMind_docs/main`: territory survey (`cd7dc63`), lessons-from-MemPalace upgrade (`a251dd6`), attention-as-upstream-of-memory concept (`d4323f0`).
|
||
- Seb opened L1 co-authorship in the morning; `~/CLAUDE.md` amended ratifying steward as "now also co-author with Seb for L1."
|
||
- Reframed the dating correction: the selection layer (REVIEWED-18/19) shipped 2026-04-02/03 *before* the April-19 audit — the "unbuilt 7 weeks" framing was stale; the audit saw the layer *starved*, not absent.
|
||
|
||
### 2026-05-14 — H1/H3 shipped · H2/H4 surfaced to Seb · cross-cutting [PROPOSAL] filed
|
||
- H1 (normalize uniform-confidence path): #163/#164 shipped.
|
||
- H3 (temporal stats fallthrough on text queries): PR #172 + spec amendment v1.7→v1.8 per REVIEWED-20.
|
||
- H2 (battery suppression silent recall failure): comments posted on `#165` per REVIEWED-21 (four design questions surfaced verbatim).
|
||
- H4 (hook events pollute recall + logchain): comments posted on `#167` per REVIEWED-23 (three design questions + §6 ambient-cost framing + H2/H4 coupling).
|
||
- Cross-cutting read-path-honest-degradation [PROPOSAL] PENDING-20 filed; L2 elevation deferred to post-May per REVIEWED-22.
|
||
|
||
### 2026-04-19 → 2026-05-13 — Foundational audit period · H-issue identification · diagnostic baselines
|
||
- Foundational audit + addendum produced (`l1-deep-audit-plan-2026-04-19.md`, `l1-diagnostic-branch-addendum-2026-04-19.md`, `l1-ingestion-forensic-2026-04-19.md`, `l1-recall-quality-baseline-2026-04-19.md`).
|
||
- Four H-issues identified: H1 normalize uniform-confidence · H2 battery suppression · H3 temporal stats fallthrough · H4 hook events pollution. H1 and H3 mechanical; H2 and H4 design-calls.
|
||
- Cross-cutting pattern named: read-path lacks honest-degradation contract (the seam that connects all four).
|
||
|
||
### 2026-04-03 — Selection layer authorized · Amendment 61 (Epistemic Integrity) shipped
|
||
- REVIEWED-18 (Observation-Recall Coupling, PENDING-16) + REVIEWED-19 (Epistemic Integrity, PENDING-17). The numeric-confidence chain authorized end-to-end: I-CF floor → I-CC ceiling → persisted `source_classification_confidence` → recall weight.
|
||
- Three invariants on the Cluster A path: I-CF (Processing Confidence Floor), I-CC (Classification Confidence Ceiling), I-NF (Novelty Floor).
|
||
- The qualitative axis (`means_of_knowing` / `earned_confidence`) shipped at write only; its recall-time wiring is the still-open A1 work (2026-05-27 finding (a)).
|
||
|
||
### 2026-03-21/22 — L1 reliability session: 5 bugs fixed (A/B/C/D/E) · Phase 1 fast · recall blocker identified
|
||
- Bugs A (reprobe), B (schema), C (teacher), D (idle+batch), E (vector skip) fixed. Phase 1 completes in ~10 minutes.
|
||
- 43-finding silent-degradation audit completed (REVIEWED-2).
|
||
- Executor Agency Directives added to `~/CLAUDE.md` (REVIEWED-1).
|
||
- Read path identified as next blocker (PENDING-5; eventually subsumed by the April audit's H-issues).

## Notes on the tracker itself
|
||
|
||
- **Provenance:** established 2026-05-28 by Symmetria-pulse decision (steward asked "do this well so future selves don't have to redo"). The wake's "A or B" framing for L1 had collapsed at least three real options to a binary; the tracker is the encoded-discipline answer to that collapse. Per `feedback-rank-on-fields-you-actually-write` — track what you actually write; the per-session memory chain was being read at /wake-up but not as a maintained canonical record.
|
||
- **Update protocol:** append a new dated entry to the chronological log at /wrap-up for any substantive L1 move (decision, finding, code change, governance update, Seb-interaction). Update *Current state* and *Active umbrella* sections in place. Append to *Decisions made* and *Decisions deferred*. Findings table evolves as the four findings get re-verified, fixed, or supplemented.
|
||
- **Per-session memories continue:** session-N memory files still capture per-session voice + drift + Symmetria ledger. The tracker captures the cross-session arc. Both are needed; neither replaces the other.
|
||
- **MEMORY index:** the tracker is referenced from MEMORY.md's "Canonical Workstream Trackers" section. The previous per-session-memory-chain enumeration there for L1 is now shortened to point at this file. |
