The steward's ruling of 2026-09-04 amends REVIEWED-123 condition 2. Applied as data, in the deferral record's own vocabulary: no code changed, and governance-drift-check.py:513 stays excluded from repair and unexamined, as the ruling's Notes require. The counter still counts and still fires at 84; what a firing INSTRUCTS is now recording, not grading. Condition 3 replaces the terminus that suspension removed. Grading at 84 was the ladder hold's only terminal bound, so the suspension carries its own: the joint PENDING-178/-179 ruling, or 2026-10-15, whichever falls first. That bound is given a trigger rather than a memory — a dated DEFERRED-DECISION block whose discriminator states, in its own text, that firing returns the falsifier for a steward ruling and does not resume grading (condition 4). PENDING-168 is the reason it is not left to care. N-now at suspension, measured live by the trial's own method: 65 = 41 real + 24 mumble (36.9%), distance 19. Unchanged from 2026-09-03 in count and composition. Left knowingly wrong, and recorded rather than fixed: the /wake-up trial line still reads "Graded automatically at 84 transcripts". It is the trial's own intervention text, frozen by its own terms and by REVIEWED-123 condition 1; rewording it would confound the measurement the suspension exists to protect.

REVIEWED-134 — application record: automatic grading suspended
Placed: 2026-09-04 · Ruling: REVIEWED-134 (steward-originated), AUTHORIZED, amending REVIEWED-123 condition 2 · Applied by: executor, same day.
This file is the application of a ruling, not a proposal and not a new item. It exists because REVIEWED-134's condition 3 replaces a terminus that lived in another ruling, and a replacement bound with no carrier is the trap REVIEWED-123 condition 5 names in the opposite direction.
What was suspended
REVIEWED-95's ladder-trial falsifier no longer grades on the transcript counter reaching 84.
The counter is not modified: governance-drift-check.py's transcripts trigger still counts
TRANSCRIPTS.glob("*.jsonl") and still fires at 84, and that site stays excluded from repair and
unexamined per the ruling's Notes. What changed is what a firing instructs — recording, not
grading. Nothing in the counting path was touched, and no code was changed to apply this.
N-now at suspension, measured live 2026-09-04 by the trial's own method: 65 = 41 real + 24 mumble (36.9%). Distance to threshold, 19. Count and composition both unchanged from the 2026-09-03 reading.
The replacement terminus, carried verbatim from the ruling
This suspension lapses on the joint PENDING-178 / PENDING-179 ruling, or on 2026-10-15, whichever falls first.
And the ruling's condition 4, which governs what the lapse does:
Lapse returns the question for a ruling, not for resumption. On the lapse date automatic grading does not resume by default. The falsifier returns for a steward decision that states, at minimum, which population it would grade over.
The 30-day review point of 2026-09-16 (REVIEWED-123 condition 2) stands and is not discharged by this ruling. The N-now reporting obligation survives unchanged and is enriched: N-now is reported at wake with its real/mumble split.
The lapse, given a trigger rather than a memory
What this application deliberately did not touch
governance-drift-check.py— no edit of any kind. The suspension is carried as data in the deferral record, which is what the instrument's vocabulary is for. Line 513 stays unexamined.- The
/wake-upSKILL.md trial line — it still reads "Graded automatically at 84 transcripts", which REVIEWED-134 has now made false. It is the trial's own intervention text and is frozen by its own terms and by REVIEWED-123 condition 1; rewording it would confound the measurement the suspension exists to protect. A knowingly stale claim, left stale for a stated reason. - The joint PENDING-178 / PENDING-179 ruling — condition 6 reserves the unit, the window, the recurrence mechanism, the session predicate, and the seeding-and-store question to it.
- REVIEWED-134 condition 8's recorded disagreement — three preservation dates where two are claimed, two archive paths, a four-file gap. Query before the joint ruling, not before this one.
