Two loose ends closed before the Harrison re-gate, both surfaced by the steward. Memory pointers. Six links in MEMORY.md / MEMORY-reference.md pointed at files that all existed, via hand-counted relative depths that resolved from neither of the memory dir's two addresses (it is ~/dotfiles/claude/memory, symlinked from ~/.claude/projects/…). The wake canary detected this correctly FOUR times over two days and the banked remedy was to change the canary's path resolution — i.e. to silence a true positive. The defect was never the pointers: the alarm emitted one undifferentiated word, MISSING, so every firing had to be re-diagnosed by hand and the cheapest re-diagnosis is always "known bug". wake-digest.py now reports four outcomes (ok / mis-authored / dead / non-portable), hands back the exact replacement, and carries a regression control replaying this bug's shape. Pointers are home-anchored (~/…), not absolute — steward's correction; absolute hardcodes this machine into the repo whose purpose is surviving a machine change. Maps. With the noise gone, one genuine dead pointer surfaced: arc-current-state-2026-05-07.md, a live ARC dashboard the steward read to orient. It lived only on the Desktop and went with a tidy-up. A census found four more in the same condition, zero copies anywhere — including the Making-Sequence architecture and reading list, load-bearing for current corpus work. The cause is structural: code, session records and memories are durable; the one artifact class addressed to the steward had no home. All five now live in maps/ and are symlinked back to their exact Desktop paths (Desktop view unchanged), moved under a checksum gate with a positive control. wake-digest.py reports stray Desktop maps; it never moves them — the Desktop is the steward's. How to verify: python3 scripts/wake-digest.py --selftest # 28 controls, PASS python3 scripts/wake-digest.py | grep -A3 'MEMORY POINTERS' cd ~/Desktop && shasum -a 256 *.md # reads through the symlinks What was not changed: ~/CLAUDE.md and REVIEWED.md untouched (Constraint #1). No Desktop file was deleted or renamed. MEMORY-reference.md's May entry is marked superseded, not rewritten. Known limitation: maps/ has no successor for the ARC map's FUNCTION — the open-work register carries the content, but nothing exists that the steward can open and orient by. Named in the entry rather than quietly closed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01WuMjg3ipEVa3n8CoSzoyvc

# Claude Code Memory
|
||
|
||
## Standing preferences
|
||
- [Chamber work: ground in constitution + charter + runbook FIRST](feedback-chamber-work-ground-in-constitution-charter-runbook.md) — steward directive 2026-07-28: **any chamber work *or talk about it*** begins by reading the **library constitution** · the **engine charter** · the **conversion runbook** (incl. `reanchor:` — a new hash invalidates bindings in BOTH repos). Repo CLAUDE.mds are pointers, not state. Corpus claims come from a self-tested tool, never a hand grep. **Enforcement mechanism owed** (hook/skill/wake-conditional; `verify-before-compose` is the precedent).
|
||
- [CapableHands standing authorization](reference-capablehands-standing-authorization.md) — M4 mini david@10.0.1.136 durably authorized for remote OCR/inference; don't re-ask permission to use it (steward 2026-07-01).
|
||
- [Every canon doc's source lives in Chamber Sources](feedback-resolve-source-through-chamber-sources.md) — a canonical's source = whatever `resolve_archived_source` returns (the **Chamber Sources** folder; NEVER the master library or a path in a plan/doc/frontmatter); read the banked source record before calling a mismatch a defect; fix wrong/missing pins to golden standard. (Steward, 2026-07-24, after 3 corrections on the Levi omnibus source.)
|
||
- [Steward maps live in ~/dotfiles/maps](reference-steward-maps-home.md) — a **map** = an artifact David reads *directly* to orient (dashboard, corpus index, reading list). Write it into `~/dotfiles/maps/` and symlink to the Desktop, **never** straight onto the Desktop. Est. 2026-07-28 after one was lost and four more found unbacked; `wake-digest.py` reports strays.
|
||
- [Governance files are dotfiles symlinks](reference-governance-files-are-dotfiles-symlinks.md) — `~/PENDING.md`/`~/REVIEWED.md`/`~/CLAUDE.md` → `~/dotfiles/…`; Edit/Write refuse to write through a symlink, so **edit the real dotfiles path** when appending PENDING/REVIEWED.
|
||
- [Typography palace — query via CLI](reference-typography-palace-cli.md) — type masters (~20-21 sources) in a dedicated MemPalace at `~/.mempalace/palace-chamber-typography`; query `mempalace --palace <that> search "…"` (CLI). For ARC typography — don't re-ask where it lives.
|
||
- [Fowler's rules for quotation](feedback_fowlers_rules_quotation.md) — single quotes primary, double for nested, logical British punctuation order. Apply across all writing.
|
||
- [Canadian spelling in ARC prose](feedback-canadian-spelling-arc-prose.md) — centre/colour ("almost EU"); corpus "center" = autocorrect drift (10 files, cleanup open). Draft all steward-voiced prose in Canadian spelling.
|
||
- [Rank on fields you actually write](feedback-rank-on-fields-you-actually-write.md) — a consumer that ranks by an evaluative field (importance/weight) nothing populates silently degrades to trivial order while claiming to rank; verify scoring fields end-to-end, prefer signals already captured (recency). For BMF/CapableMind/studium-engine tool-building.
|
||
- [Shorter, concentrated sessions](feedback-shorter-concentrated-sessions.md) — steward preference (2026-07-13): shorter but very concentrated — ONE tightly-scoped high-leverage bite taken all the way, then wrap; hold the rest as ranked horizons.
|
||
- [Constitution-as-block, then pull-based corpus](feedback-constitution-as-block-then-pull-based-corpus.md) — steward discipline (2026-07-14): finish the **constitution as one block FIRST**, THEN corpus-into-spec **pulled by what each engine phase needs**. **Bounded question → bounded answer; don't surface N new threads**; keep open-thread count LOW. Above [[feedback-shorter-concentrated-sessions]].
|
||
- [Close thoroughly — no frequent deferrals](feedback-close-thoroughly-no-frequent-deferrals.md) — steward directive (2026-07-16): **frequent deferrals ARE how the cloud accumulated**; close ALL of a block that's closable-now; distinguish closable-now vs genuinely-blocked (**name the specific dependency**, never a vague defer). Completeness complement to [[feedback-constitution-as-block-then-pull-based-corpus]].
|
||
- [Checkable claim surfaces bugs](feedback-checkable-claim-surfaces-bugs.md) — insisting on a checkable claim (number, substrate-fact, discriminating test) over a soft classification repeatedly EXPOSES a real bug; the demand for verifiability is itself a defect-detector. Steward-named 2026-07-13. (Caught F-5 + the "finally" overclaim, 2026-07-17.)
|
||
- [Derive the rule from the consumer, not the survivor](feedback-derive-the-rule-from-the-consumer-not-from-the-survivor.md) — picking between two disagreeing implementations is **selection, not derivation**; derive from what a CONSUMER must do. Complementary-correctness defeats sampling.
|
||
- [Census by mechanism, not proxy](feedback-census-by-mechanism-not-proxy.md) — census by RUNNING the real pipeline, not a proxy; distrust the finite-feeling bucket that arrives when you want to feel done.
|
||
- [Completion is a tripwire](feedback-completion-is-a-tripwire.md) — the *feeling* of "done" is the cue to verify the tail (census/gate/scan-check), not the signal to ship; the last 10% is invisible from inside the first 90%. Ninety-Ninety as a security property (steward 2026-07-06).
|
||
- [Studium Engine charter](reference-studium-engine-architectural-charter.md) — the engine's constitutional doc (`studium-engine/docs/the-studium-engine-architectural-charter.md`): reasoner-at-centre over a BOUNDED provenanced corpus; three cognitions; boundedness=trust. Read before building the engine.
|
||
- [Studium Engine = Sixtus-V craftsman collaboration](feedback-studium-engine-sixtus-v-collaboration.md) — work the ground freely (I build, surface only vision-forks); **constraint-candidates** = 3rd governed instrument (I name, steward applies). Studium-engine only; heavier loop for L1/L2.
|
||
- [Trust prior pass frame](feedback-trust-prior-pass-frame.md) — When extending a prior verification, re-run it at the scope of the extension. Frame-inheritance from a deep-read is contamination shape: the prior pass tested what it tested; your extension claims things it did not test. Caught 2026-05-28 → four-pass audit. Verify-before-compose at draft time, not build time.
|
||
- [MemPalace is an unaffiliated stopgap](mempalace-is-unaffiliated-stopgap.md) — MemPalace is third-party; steward/Seb build BMF/CapableMind (hoped to replace it). Don't conflate them (3rd steward correction 2026-06-05 — the conflation even reached a skill name and was retracted); MemPalace PRs await MemPalace's maintainers, NOT Seb.
|
||
- [Skill-harvest register](skill-harvest-register.md) — **canonical home for proposed skills** (governed analog of PENDING.md for tooling); `/wrap-up` §1.6 proposes, steward authorizes. **Register compaction + ladder batch-append owed** — it exceeds read caps (tripwire 2026-07-22). Built: `/jurist-package`, `/model-handoff`. Ruled/held detail in the file.
|
||
- [Copy-paste-clean governance drafts](feedback-governance-drafting-copy-paste-clean.md) — draft PENDING/REVIEWED placement blocks as plain fenced markdown; display formatting leaks into the placed record (REVIEWED-59 header, 07-16).
|
||
- [Verification ladder](reference-verification-ladder.md) — the named instruments (byte-identical compile gate, delta classification, censused-routes, fresh-clone gate, measure-toolchain-before-spec…); reach for the gate the claim's shape demands instead of re-deriving.
|
||
- [Plane coordination workflow](reference-plane-coordination-workflow.md) — CENTRAL to steward↔Seb: `app.plane.so/capablemind`, thin effort-tasks `[BM #N]` over canonical GH issues. ⚠ BBF = BetterBridge *product*, NOT the board. Detail + MCP setup in file.
|
||
- [Resurface banked notes before re-deriving](feedback-resurface-banked-notes-before-rederiving.md) — when an idea was already captured (runbook known_gaps, skill-harvest, prior note), READ the note before re-deriving; re-derivation drifts (page-numbers mis-recalled as provenance vs structure-scaffolding, steward re-corrected 2026-06-27). The engine's own purpose, turned on my practice.
|
||
- [Verify-before-compose hook](feedback-verify-before-compose-hook.md) — chamber constitutional writes are BLOCKED by a PreToolUse hook without `<!-- GROUNDED-IN: … -->` + verbatim Grounding. Don't fight the block.
|
||
- [Tool review after each use](feedback-tool-review-after-each-use.md) — steward directive (2026-06-16): review every tool we built after each run (success OR failure), capture what it taught, iterate until reliable; PASS-BUT-FALSELY is the priority signal. Log at `chamber-library/_curation/tool-evolution-log.md`. Proven same day (audit_cruft hardening → 160 hidden-dirty files surfaced).
|
||
- [Engine sources graduate to the permanent chamber](feedback-engine-sources-become-permanent-chamber-collection.md) — steward policy (2026-06-28): any work added for the engine ALSO becomes permanent chamber collection unless expressly stated; take it ALL the way (clean→verify→graduate→catalogue→sidecar); never leave staged. The chamber accumulates. ⇒ all ~30 Making sources graduate in.
|
||
- [Notes are part of the work](feedback-notes-are-part-of-the-work-keep-footnotes-endnotes.md) — steward directive (2026-06-28): footnotes/endnotes are integral — KEEP+CONVERT them (`<sup><a>`→`[^N]`), never drop on graduation. (Caught dropping Taylor's endnotes — wrong.)
|
||
- [The maturation of the chamber — a dialogue](~/_Dev/studium-engine/docs/the-maturation-of-the-chamber-a-dialogue-2026-06-28.md) — the pivotal 2026-06-28 exchange on the chamber's telos (fidelity-without-trust; reading-is-unsolvable-is-the-feature; L2/engine=answerable-not-pure). Companion to [[project-studium-engine-telos-chamber-of-voices]].
|
||
|
||
## Canonical Workstream Trackers
|
||
*Read the tracker for any active workstream at /wake-up before composing the briefing. Append substantive moves at /wrap-up. Per `feedback-canonical-workstream-tracker-discipline.md`.*
|
||
- **[Chamber as versioned releases (the governing frame)](project-chamber-versioned-releases.md) — steward reframe 2026-07-25: the full 2000-year Chamber (incl. image-based Warburg/Jung, Berger, Alexander) is the HORIZON; realize it as versioned releases with soft borders — "Chamber V1 = constitution vX + engine vY + a bounded voice-set, serving a specific PURPOSE" (Making Sequence · violin/XXI-century treatise · ARC). Purpose-first re-bounds the library work: the V-TEXT wave needn't all clear for V1. PENDING-75 kind-scoping = the enabler of additive version growth. Scope every library bite through this. Open decision: which purpose anchors V1.**
|
||
- [The Chamber touchstone — the *why*, and it does not move](~/_Dev/studium-engine/docs/the-chamber-touchstone.md) — seven questions to **test work against** when lost in the trees (one clause · answerable-not-pure · the seam · the gap stays open · inside-not-receiving · reading-not-concluding · for whom). Est. 2026-07-28; every quote source-verified verbatim. **Read at Step 0 of any chamber work**, before constitution/charter/runbook — those are operational and say nothing about why. Points at its seven sources; holds no state, so it does not decay.
|
||
- [The Chamber vision is NOT in one place](project-chamber-vision-is-not-in-one-place.md) — honest answer to the steward's 2026-07-28 hope: it lives in **seven** sources across two repos + memory (one was behind a broken pointer; all pointers repaired 2026-07-28), and the two newest maps (**boundedness gradient** · **convocation ladder = who convokes**) exist only in a session record. Census + what a single home would need. **Not yet proposed as a document** — a grand synthesis would become an eighth scattered source unless it supersedes or points.
|
||
- [MemPalace wind-down](project-mempalace-winddown.md) — DONE (steward 2026-07-07): `palace-memory` wound down, wake/wrap rewired to the files layer; KG exported (`knowledge-graph.jsonl`). Typography palace KEPT (separate instance).
|
||
- [ARC open-work register](project-arc-open-work-register.md) — **the single code-verified source of truth for what is OPEN on ARC** (post-Stage-G, built 2026-06-11). Read THIS for remaining ARC work (A1 Vignette, A2 cul-de-lampe, content sweeps, Phase-2/held set, REVIEWED-placement debt), not the chronological tracker.
|
||
- [ARC](project-arc-rework.md) — canonical ARC workstream tracker (chronological record 2026-04-16 →). **Status: STAGE G DONE/SEALED (GPG `ac0a7ee`, 2026-06-10) — reactive mode governs.** Open work → [[project-arc-open-work-register]] (A1 Vignette · A2 cul-de-lampe · content sweeps · Phase-2 held set). Chronological detail in the tracker file.
|
||
- Chamber-typography — *tracker not yet established*; substantive moves live in per-session memories (2026-05-11 onward) + `project-chamber-cruft-restoration.md` + `project-chamber-typography-mining-plan-2026-05-15.md`.
|
||
- [Studium engine telos — the chamber of voices](project-studium-engine-telos-chamber-of-voices.md) — **the ultimate goal, above the build plan**: David's childhood chamber of hero-voices → discourse with his library + voices conversing, this time *accountably* (v1 was eloquent/unaccountable; same ambition built grounded/citable). Why verbatim fidelity is load-bearing.
|
||
- [Studium = CM's unfettered sandbox](project-studium-cm-sandbox-and-transfer.md) — Studium/chamber are personal projects Seb now sees as fundamental to CM; experiment freely on the library/engine without risking CM's runtime, breakthroughs transfer back (V2 verifier = live example). Steward-framed 2026-07-08.
|
||
- [Making sequence source set](project-making-sequence-source-set.md) — **COMPLETE against the ReadingList as of 2026-06-18** (reconciliation-verified); census of what's sourced where, sourced≠ingested (only Pos I in manifest), the **Handke-German decision** (original is source), the Levi drop-cap gate (RESOLVED STALE 2026-07-19 — initials present). Read before any Making/studium source work.
|
||
- [Source library — link + dedupe](project-source-library-link-and-dedupe.md) — steward's master ebook library = `~/Documents/___The Library [ePub_AWZ3]/` (2190 ebooks, messy nested). GOAL: link chamber↔sources (provenance index) + dedupe; real link needs EPUB/PDF internal metadata + edition-identity, not filenames. Detail + seed in file.
|
||
- [Character-as-image hazard](feedback-character-as-image-hazard.md) — EPUBs rendering diacritics as inline images are SILENTLY MUTILATED by image-drop. Mechanism built (`apply_char_glyphs.py`, REVIEWED-70/v2.5.0), wired as a born-digital precondition; per-source glyph-maps still owed. VIEW the glyph; map to SOURCE form.
|
||
- [Sidecar typology — protocol-dependent reading-indexes](project-sidecar-typology-protocol-dependent.md) — TWO layers: `.meta.json` structural sidecar = PROTOCOL-NEUTRAL (the graduated bar); reading-indexes (rich YAML) = PROTOCOL-DEPENDENT, probably PLURAL — **don't design the schema yet**; settle corpus to gold, let protocols declare themselves. Steward 2026-06-29.
|
||
- Studium Engine — *no tracker file yet*; moves in per-session memories + the **[architectural charter](reference-studium-engine-architectural-charter.md)**. Steps 0–7 built; corpus CLEAN; **V1 `verify-quote` BUILT + `fidelity_equivalence@2` GOVERNING (2026-07-19; @1 frozen; dash refused/evidence-gated; Greek/Latin census owed → @3)**. **Stage-1 rebuild plan** (`studium-engine/docs/stage-1-rebuild-plan-2026-07-05.md`): V0+N0 ruled · V1 done → V2→V4 / N1→N3. Collaboration = [[feedback-studium-engine-sixtus-v-collaboration]].
|
||
- [L1 reliability](project-L1-reliability.md) — canonical L1 tracker (est. 2026-05-28). Latest: N6 deploy #175 live+holds; CapableHands-as-BMF-clasp = PRIORITY (PENDING-41). L1 behind the Studium/chamber focus. Read the tracker before L1 work.
|
||
- [Be (laundromat)](project-be-laundromat.md) — canonical Be tracker (est. 2026-06-08). Be = Skemantix startup (Seb+David) funding CapableMind's ladder; **bridge, not venture**. Decisions LOCKED (entity/pricing/infra in file); a11y gate MERGED. **Pre-revenue WTP gate = renovate Pat → charge her; discipline: no new spec until it clears → nothing for executor on be.** Repo @ `f43a0fd`.
|
||
|
||
## Active Session
|
||
- [Session 2026-07-28 early afternoon — the chamber scoped, and nine blind instruments](session-2026-07-28-early-afternoon-the-chamber-scoped-and-nine-blind-instruments.md) — **Chamber V1's purpose opened into its own precondition; DECIDED: Harrison as the re-gate pilot.** Steward ruled out the **violin treatise** (conversion pipeline foreseen, not built); the **ARC** dismissal *did not survive the manifest* (all five After-the-Reply essays are ingested; Step 8 chavruta is unbuilt on every path equally ⇒ purpose changes corpus+test, never engine work). Typography recommended on four grounds — incl. a **pre-registered falsifiable claim** (`aldine-xxi.md:29` *"Neither tradition names this exactly"* — a universal negative authored before the engine) and **it is where the steward can catch the engine lying** (on his own essays, ungrounded synthesis arrives as agreement). Two maps drawn: **boundedness** mark→unborn (changes *kind*, with the seam at claims-about-text vs selection/emphasis) and **composition** = *who convokes* (⇒ rungs 4–6 are SAFER than rung 3; order 2→(4,5,6)→3). **Then the corpus inverted twice:** my detector said Harrison had no bibliography → steward read his physical copy → the `.md` retains **96%** of source words; my pattern had omitted the word **"Notes"**, and the corpus is multilingual (`bibliographie` ×19). **"Read the runbook"** → the ledger had already classified it `stranded-suspect`/`C-apparatus` on 07-03. **Docling trial (scratch, nothing graduated): 96.5%→99.1% of source, `## Works Cited` with per-line entries** ⇒ **re-conversion recovers what retrofit cannot**; blocked corpus-wide by the missing running-head detector (14 false headings). **SCOPE VERIFIED: 952/1297 clean · 69 apparatus-defect · but only 11 pass graduation** — the gap is **conformance, not content**; the frame is **re-gate the voice-set a purpose needs**, never the corpus. ⚑ **Nine instances of one shape, none caught by an instrument** (four caught by the steward). Detail in the session file.
|
||
|
||
## Historical reference → MEMORY-reference.md
|
||
Older archived-session pointers and the stable reference layer (steward profile · project-state detail · L1/L2/Chamber inventories · legacy pending-work · reference-file list) live in [MEMORY-reference.md](MEMORY-reference.md) — consult on demand; not loaded at wake. Recent cross-session trajectory comes from the Active Session entry above + the recent `session-*.md` files (wake §2.b.1; the MemPalace `handoffs` glance was retired 2026-07-07 with the wind-down).
|
||
|
||
## Index discipline (self-bounding — keep this file lean)
|
||
Wake-loaded live index; hard budget well under the harness load ceiling. Keep to: Standing preferences · Canonical Trackers *as one-line pointers* (chronological detail lives in the linked tracker files, **not** here) · Active Session · these pointers. Rotation + budget-breach handling are wired into `/wrap-up` (demote prior Active Session on promote) and `/wake-up` (truncated load = flag + trim). Back up before restructuring. (Compacted 2026-07-17: entries re-slimmed to tight one-liners, 20.5→<17.1KB.)
