project-l1-reliability Canonical workstream tracker for L1-reliability work (CapableMind L1 substrate / BMF runtime). Chronological accumulating record from 2026-04-19 onward; current-state at top. Each substantive move appends. Sibling to project-arc-rework; replaces the per-session-memory chain MEMORY previously enumerated for L1.

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.

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.
