Session Ledger — 2026-07-25
Returns
- 2026-07-25T06:45 — Cleaner A built test-first (
strip_source_presentation.py, 242/242, verbatim-safe). Proved on the-shape-of-a-pocket: A kills all{.class}(59→0) but is necessary-not-sufficient — second obstacle =:::fenced divs (pandoc fences ALL<div>), + orphan id-anchors. Literal question answered: NO, the class is not one fix deep. Returns caught: (1) tested the census's premise ("deep nesting") against the substrate — FALSE for this file (shallow breadth + fences); (2) tested my own proposed fix (div-unwrap) rather than inferring. - 2026-07-25T07:05 — ⚑ SELF-CORRECTION (assert-from-derived recurrence, 2nd today). I reported "div-unwrap BREAKS footnotes 7→0" — FALSE, a buggy probe regex (
^..\d+..:≠[^1]:; same class as the\b-census bug). Re-counted with the lane's own regex → 7 defs intact on ALL candidates incl. div-unwrapped. Note bodies are<p epub:type>, immune to div-unwrap. The false finding shaped the steward's ruling; corrected the log + ledger before propagating. Lesson: produce the checkable claim with the SAME instrument the production path uses; ad-hoc probe regexes are where the lies creep in. The steward's ruling STILL holds — verify_lossless IS blind to apparatus (true regardless), and a<div epub:type=footnote>file WOULD break — so the apparatus guard + relational unwrap are right as insurance for the class.
Open horizons
-
2026-07-25T06:18 — Woke into the V-TEXT wave unlock thread (CONFIRMED, unchanged tree). Build (A) pre-processing nested-span/anchor cleaner [HTML-parser, prose-safe — NOT regex] + (B)
_tokensignores pandoc{…}attribute grammar as a CLASS → graduatethe-shape-of-a-pocketend-to-end. Test-first. The census (_curation/v-text-wave-gap-census-2026-07-24.md) carries the fix shape. -
Inherited disciplines to hold: test, don't infer — against the substrate (won ~6× last session); build to the constitution, not to legacy-canon precedent; change-impact clause (a producer change must enumerate its consumers — 3 instances now). Steward energy: census says build "when there is energy — not a tired-tail push."

2026-07-25T07:40 — Cleaner A EXTENDED per the steward's 3-gate ruling: apparatus-preservation guard (inside the tool, relational, teeth) + relational wrapper-unwrap/orphan-id (epub:type + live-link-graph gated) + policy-gated opt-in (unwrap defaults OFF). 248/248. Committed
3874f7f(+ census6d7ff84, CLAUDE.md73ae8e3). Proven on the-shape-of-a-pocket: solves layers 1(class)+2(fences) footnote-safe (apparatus guard passed, 7 defs); residual 54 = 3 curation-policy categories (44 pandoc spine anchors mechanical · 24 referenced internal-nav fences+27 links · 14 art plates+1 SVG), NOT a tool gap.
Open horizons
-
LAYER-3 CURATION FORK (steward's to rule): (a) internal-nav keep/strip (24 referenced fences + 27 cross-ref links; if strip, link-graph-consistent); (b) art-book plates — the-shape-of-a-pocket is Berger on painting; 14 plates content or cruft? This reframes the wave: "31 heavy-styled" is a volume label over heterogeneous structural+curatorial kinds — per-file diagnosis confirmed.
-
GATE-3 governed policy landing (the SPECIFIC blocker before any corpus-wide run): the presentational-wrapper claim as GROUNDED declared data in
graduation-spec.yaml(hook-gated; F4 shape / kin REVIEWED-67 front-end-eligibility). The tool must not ACT corpus-wide until landed. -
Then:
strip_cruftspine-anchor recognition (mechanical residual) · B_tokens{…}-attribute-class FIX (gate PASS) · lane-wiring + graduation. -
Twice today: assert-from-derived-not-substrate (buggy ad-hoc regexes:
\bcensus,^..\d+..:def-count). Reinforced: produce the checkable claim with the SAME instrument the production path uses. -
2026-07-25T08:30 — Mechanism-census RAN over 48 wave files (
_curation/mechanism-census-2026-07-25.tsv, committeda527e0a; volume-census superseded06331fb). Distribution: 8 clean/near-clean · 21 internal-nav (one ruling) · 2 MIXED 2nd-mechanism · 8 pandoc-class-leak (French/translation) · 8 glyph-needed · 1 azw3. Dominant lever = ONE internal-nav CURATION RULING, not one cleaner. -
2026-07-25T08:30 — RETURN (banked lesson's first live test, steward-flagged): "ONE ruling clears 23" was an inference from residual COMPOSITION, not from what removal DOES — same gap that falsified the volume census. Checked it cheaply from the TSV → clears 21/23; 2 (histoire-de-la-folie resid 246 non-nav, planning-XP 88 non-nav) hide a 2nd mechanism. the-shape-of-a-pocket reconciled (A-unwrap removed the fence layer; residual nav-only). Caught before it got planned around. feedback-census-by-mechanism-not-proxy working as intended.
