plan: the BindSpace→MailboxSoA migration, re-derived from the tree - #1177
Conversation
The three plans on main are all design-stage and all predate backing.rs (#844, 2026-07-24). Read against origin/main #1174 instead: the migration is far more built than the board records, and is blocked on nothing. BackingStoreWrite (backing.rs:164-314) already carries 9 write methods with both arms real -- no todo!(), no no-op -- and has zero callers outside its own test module; driver.rs never names it. The read shim beside it is wired. tests/w2_differential.rs holds 4 real bit-identity equivalence tests. All of it sits behind mailbox-thoughtspace, which no workflow builds, so the equivalence harness and every Mailbox write arm have zero CI coverage. The blocker that looked real is settled: the cycle plane is "NEVER migrated" by design (mailbox_soa.rs:140), its dispatch value is computed transiently (driver.rs:367/372, never read from storage), and its one production reader (engine_bridge.rs:412) is already gated out under the feature with the trade recorded in-source as a documented loss. A FOURTH plan exists and is the closest ancestor: a council-hardened namesake dated 2026-06-17 on origin/claude/bindspace-mailbox-soa-wiring-plan, 2770 commits divergent, never on main, found only by a push collision on the branch name -- nothing on the board points at it. Its P0/P1 findings are all closed in today's tree (content_row :680; the W1c populated-count :217 and the prefilter clamp backing.rs:79), so the work it specified largely happened and only the document stranded. Its binding operator constraints are carried forward in section 7: two paths step by step; never delete the old before the new is tested; CausalEdge64 dedup precise; delete BindSpace LAST. Corrects three board facts: COMPONENT-MAP.md:108 rules retirement "(W7)" and no W7 exists -- INTEGRATION-PLAN.md runs W0-W6 and the retirement has no D-id; the parity gate is at :1361 not :1145; and there are two parity tests, the second (:1480) covering content, the heaviest plane. M0 is one CI line with exact precedent at rust-test.yml:158-173. Retirement stays proof-gated and explicitly NOT NOW. Nothing was compiled or run: no cargo at any point. Every claim is structural and carries file:line. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01AGVLyRZNEKKBSfBDJfbY3V

`added-plans-have-dids` was red on the added plan, and the gate is right: a plan with no D-ids is invisible to STATUS_BOARD and to the supersession index's coverage column, so it cannot be discovered or tracked. Reproduced locally (MISSING D-id), fixed, re-run green. D-BSW-0..4 (BindSpace->SoA Wiring) now name the five steps in section 4, each with a row: 0 put mailbox-thoughtspace under CI; 1 wire BackingStoreWrite into the driver; 2 route the five engine_bridge writers; 3 populate mailboxes from a production path; 4 retirement, BLOCKED deliberately. Index regenerated last, after the board writes, per the ordering CLAUDE.md records from #1085.

Exercise the combined feature configuration in CI
Adding a run with only --features mailbox-thoughtspace does not compile or execute the M2 dispatch_busdto path: that function is gated by with-engine, as is the entire busdto_bridge_test.rs integration test. Consequently, the proposed gate can remain green even if the later mailbox routing breaks the supported with-engine,mailbox-thoughtspace configuration; include that combined feature set in the CI plan.

Preserve the f32 BusDto tenant when routing dispatch writes
For with-engine, dispatch_busdto is not the same shape as persist_cycle: it unconditionally writes BindSpace::set_qualia_f32, and unbind_busdto unconditionally reads qualia_f32_row as the bit-exact source for energy and the headline index. BackingStoreWrite and MailboxSoA have no f32 equivalent, so routing only the listed i4/meta/expert fields either leaves split state in BindSpace or makes round-trips return zero/stale values. Specify a mailbox-aware replacement for this read/write tenant, or explicitly leave this writer out of the cutover.

Route the encode handler before enabling mailbox reads
The M2 list omits the direct write in serve.rs::encode_handler, even though the census above notices that handler: it writes content through st.driver.bindspace.fingerprints.set_content rather than any engine_bridge function. After M3 attaches a mailbox, dispatch reads from that mailbox while /v1/shader/encode continues reporting successful writes to the singleton, making newly encoded rows invisible. Add this direct writer to the cutover before populating production mailboxes.

Give D-BSW its own status-board section
These rows are inserted inside the probe-r2il-live-regfile-v1 section and its D-PRLR table rather than under a bindspace-mailbox-soa-wiring-v1 heading. Board readers and section-based tooling will therefore attribute the new migration deliverables to the unrelated R2IL probe, defeating the tracking entry this commit is trying to add; create a dedicated section and table for D-BSW.

1. dispatch_busdto is NOT persist_cycle's shape (engine_bridge.rs:321/:397). It unconditionally writes set_qualia_f32 and unbind_busdto unconditionally reads qualia_f32_row as the bit-exact ground truth for energy and the headline index; neither BackingStoreWrite nor MailboxSoA carries an f32 tenant. My M2 row called it "same shape" -- understated, and my own census had already flagged the tenant. It now demands a decision before routing: a mailbox-aware replacement, or explicit exclusion from the cutover. 2. M0's single feature is insufficient. dispatch_busdto is #[cfg(feature = "with-engine")] (engine_bridge.rs:280), as is busdto_bridge_test.rs, so a mailbox-thoughtspace-only job compiles neither and can stay green while with-engine,mailbox-thoughtspace breaks. Both configurations are now the deliverable. 3. serve.rs:607 encode_handler writes fingerprints.set_content directly -- not an engine_bridge fn, and my M2 list omitted it. Added, with the two Arc::get_mut handlers, plus a HARD ORDERING note on D-BSW-3: attaching a mailbox before routing the direct writers makes dispatch read the mailbox while /v1/shader/encode keeps reporting success into the singleton, so newly encoded rows go silently invisible -- and the equivalence tests cannot catch it, they never call the HTTP surface. 4. The D-BSW rows had landed inside the probe-r2il-live-regfile-v1 section and its D-PRLR table, attributing the migration deliverables to an unrelated probe. Moved to their own section with its own table. Re-validated: the dids gate green on the real added-file set, index reproduces byte-identical, neither ledger shrank, zero files under crates/ touched.

1. LIVE. The header said "Three prior plans exist and all three are design-stage" while §7 -- appended later in the same PR -- identifies a fourth, the stranded council-hardened predecessor on origin/claude/bindspace-mailbox-soa-wiring-plan. Self-contradiction introduced by my own §7 append. Header now says four (three on main, design-stage; one stranded), and §6's heading names the split so a reader arriving at §6 is not told the count stops at three. 2. HALF-STALE, and the live half was stale a second way I had missed. CodeRabbit reviewed 1cc5bf9, before the codex fix in 6333606. - Plan half: already fixed. serve.rs:607/:139/:639 were added to the M2 row in 6333606. - Board half: genuinely live. STATUS_BOARD's D-BSW-2 row still read "the five engine_bridge writers", omitting serve.rs entirely AND still describing dispatch_busdto as routable "modulo the documented cycle-plane loss" -- the exact framing finding 1 of the codex round had already retired. The board therefore contradicted its own plan. Rewritten to name eight sites, mark dispatch_busdto excluded pending a decision, and carry the D-BSW-3 hard-ordering note. Method note: my own `grep -c serve` on the board row returned a false positive -- write_qualia_observed contains the substring "serve". The omission was found by reading the full row, not by the grep. Grep locates; it does not comprehend. Re-validated: dids gate green on the merge-base-diffed added-file set, index reproduces byte-identical, no ledger shrank, zero files under crates/.

The PR went mergeable_state=dirty when #1176 landed a `nexgen-mask-histogram-thresholds-v1` section at the top of STATUS_BOARD.md -- the same insertion point this branch's `bindspace-mailbox-soa-wiring-v1` section uses. Two sessions prepending to one append-only ledger conflict by construction; the resolution is never a choice between them. Both sections survive verbatim, newest write first: D-BSW-0..4 (5 rows) and D-NXG-1..12 (12 rows), each count matched against its own parent. The file grew past BOTH parents (1791 mine / 1786 theirs -> 1811), which is the check that distinguishes a real merge from a side silently dropped. Worth recording because it explains a false signal: GitHub creates no `pull_request` workflow runs while a PR is unmergeable, so the last two pushes produced zero checks and only CodeRabbit's status remained. That looked like a billing cap -- CodeRabbit had reported one minutes earlier -- but a sibling PR got a full run one minute after my push, which falsified it. The conflict was the cause. An absent check is not a passing check, and it is not a broken runner either; read the PR's own mergeable_state before theorising. Index regenerated AFTER the board write, per the #1085 ordering: byte-identical.

My two previous pushes produced zero check runs — only CodeRabbit's status remained, and CodeRabbit had just reported "your organization has reached its usage spending cap". The obvious inference was an Actions billing cap. It was wrong: a sibling PR (#1178) got a full run one minute after my push, which falsifies it outright.

…ady did Found by verifying a review claim rather than dismissing it. The codex connector reported a commit `a0f7759` reconciling this PR's scope; that sha exists nowhere -- its own report says the environment had no git remote and no authenticated gh, so the commit never left its sandbox. Checking its five claims against this branch instead of hunting the sha turned up one that was NOT satisfied here. The plan's M0 says both `--features mailbox-thoughtspace` and `--features with-engine,mailbox-thoughtspace` are the deliverable, because `dispatch_busdto` and `busdto_bridge_test.rs` are `with-engine`-gated (`engine_bridge.rs:280`) and a mailbox-only job compiles neither -- it stays green while the paired configuration breaks. The board's D-BSW-0 row still said "One line" and named only `mailbox-thoughtspace`, so an implementer working from the board would add one job and mark the deliverable done, satisfying the row while leaving the actual gap open. Exactly the defect shape CodeRabbit caught for D-BSW-2 one commit ago: the fix landed in the plan and was not propagated to the board, and the two then disagreed.

The

Measured: the dispatch value is computed transiently (driver.rs:367/372, never read from storage), and the stored plane's one production reader (engine_bridge.rs:412) is already#[cfg(not(feature = "mailbox-thoughtspace"))]with the trade recorded in-source as a documented loss.
