Bundle 1 of the CLOUD-911 dispatch: everything that must exist before a mise-tasks/ gate can be retired. Ten rows, one PR — CLOUD-661 retired the one-PR-per-ticket rule for exactly this case, and the landing lease charges per land rather than per gate.

CLOUD-911's Progress section and its comments are the authoritative ledger; this body summarises.

Rows

row state
CLOUD-876 — decide the schema mechanism done
CLOUD-879 — derive both policy-input schemas from the fact model done
CLOUD-851 — a rule can declare what it produces done
CLOUD-883 — a broad rule can carve out what a precise one owns done
CLOUD-907 — the checkout's git state is five facts done
CLOUD-908 — a deletion declares where every case it dropped went done
CLOUD-909 — mise run replay, the differential replay done
CLOUD-886 — test:bats selects by declared subject done
CLOUD-880 — the landing fact family fact family done; one acceptance clause unmet — see below
CLOUD-480 — close the mutant gap not takenclaim-check refuses not-todo (in Backlog)

Bundle 2 (CLOUD-910) is blockedBy 908 and 909 only, and both are done, so the wave is dispatchable on this landing.

What the last three rows are for

CLOUD-908 — conserves. retires_with (CLOUD-807) admits deleting a bats suite when its declared subject dies. That conserves files: it asks is the subject gone and never did the cases move, so a migration can delete a 259-line suite and land green with nothing asserting what replaced it. Measured on the campaign's one completed port, which dropped 22 named cases and left six with no successor anything in the tree could name.

Now every named case in a decrease must be claimed, in the head tree, by exactly one of carried / subsumed / changed. Unmapped, an arm naming a target this tree lacks, one case claimed twice, or a changed arm with no reason all refuse at deny. Pointer-only, and which pointer is the point: an unmapped case points at the dying suite and the line the case sat on at base; a bad arm points at the arm's own line, because that is where the fix goes.

All 22 cases of the retired contract-drift.bats are mapped retroactively, read through the same parser the ratchet uses — a hand-rolled reader in the test would be a second authority that could bless a mapping the gate rejects. 14 carried, 6 subsumed, 2 changed. Four of the six the row flagged as unidentifiable resolve cleanly to general properties the engine now holds, which is what a migration should produce. Two were genuinely uncovered and are closed here: the SessionStart event echo was asserted nowhere, and toolchain.md's claim that the engine's bypass silences the contract advisory is measurably false — the rule file is corrected to match the code, with a test pinning it.

CLOUD-909 — mise run replay. batten policy test cannot say a migrated module answers the way the bash did, only that it agrees with itself. This is that claim as a command.

The obvious harness is wrong here, and the task is built around why: "run both, assert the same exit code" demands the migration preserve the very contract it exists to fix, because the shell tasks spell 1 = violation and batten's is the inverse. So the exit code goes through a declared translation, and one spelled as an identity is refused before a fixture is built — 1=1 is the naive carry-over written down, while 0=0 is not, since silence means silence in both contracts.

The fixture comes from the thing being deleted: a worktree at the base rev, the dying suite run with a shim standing where the program stands, $BATS_TEST_DESCRIPTION attributing each capture to a case. Two decisions came out of measurement rather than assumption — "identical pointer set byte for byte" means the pointers, never the two stdouts (a cmp over raw output fails every faithful migration); and the remedy is read from the declaration, because batten check renders exactly path:line rule for a tree-scoped row and no remedy at all.

CLOUD-886 — suite selection. The step's glob is mise-tasks/**, so any byte under there ran every suite. Measured: correcting one sentence in land's lap-cap message bought a full matrix. Selection is a deny-list, because the asymmetry decides the design — too wide shows up in the bill, too narrow has no symptom at all. Measured saving: a change to mise-tasks/land selects tests/land.bats alone, 80.4s of a 936.0s serial total.

The anti-vacuity assertion moves with it, and its spelling changed as a fix: expected was git grep -c over the index, which counts tracked files only, so a suite added but not yet committed ran without being counted — measured at 2704 of 2696.

CLOUD-880, and why one clause is unmet

Fact::Landing landed: patch-identity landedness of HEAD against a declared target, projected by derivation, with could-not-look kept distinct from "nothing landed" throughout. This is the fact CLOUD-907 deliberately reserved — its GIT_REF header ends "the landing question has an answer already, git::landing, and CLOUD-880 is the row that makes it a fact family."

The row's second clause asks for one decision currently made by reading a sibling's exit code to become a rule over these facts. It is not met, because that consumer does not exist in bash. No mise-tasks/ program decides landedness by patch identity: landed-check and released read commit-message keys, a different question, and unlanded-check already delegates to the engine and says so in its own header. The site the dispatch plan named, ci-lease-precondition, is disqualified by measurement — it reads the lease via git ls-remote from a throwaway clone before any checkout exists, so there is no tree, store or binary for a rule to run in. Full reasoning, including why linear-check is refused on bootstrap ordering rather than on shape, is on CLOUD-880. That row stays In Progress, not In Review.

Census effect

No new mise-tasks/ gate is added by the retirement machinery itself, and no bats suite is deleted yet — 908 and 909 are the instruments bundle 2 spends. Two new off-path tasks (replay, suite-select), two new suites, three new kind="policy"/forbid rows, one new fact, one corrected rule clause.

Verification

Every CLOUD-418 arm across the three new mechanisms was observed red before it passed, not asserted. Highlights of what that caught, each a defect this PR is better for:

  • A false green in 908's own suite. Five negative arms passed over an arm parser that found nothing at all — an arm's opening delimiter is also its closing one, and the first split_once consumed the opener. Every refusal fired correctly over a mapping that claimed nothing. The positive arm is what noticed.
  • A defect in 908's mechanism, found by the calibration's own shape: a partial deletion demanded an arm for every case in the base text, including the ones still standing. A gate that cannot be satisfied gets switched off.
  • 880's absence path, observed red under a mutation that fabricates landed: false on a failed scan — the exact defect it guards, since a gate reads that as this work is outstanding.
  • A wildcard arm and a pinned census, both refused by facts.rs's own gates when schema_fragment was split at its line ceiling.

One gotcha recorded where it bites: bats rewrites every line of its own source that starts with the case keyword, heredoc included, so a fixture suite written the obvious way arrives preprocessed — and since test:bats counts that keyword to compute the total it judges a run against, three literals inflated it by three and the suite failed its own anti-vacuity assertion.

Closes CLOUD-908
Closes CLOUD-909
Closes CLOUD-886

CLOUD-876 CLOUD-845's defect has a general fix: decide the schema mechanism that makes a rule reading a field the engine never emits fail at build time

CLOUD-845 found a module that "passes policy test green and gates nothing" because input.tree.tracked is documented but never built, and a with input as test fabricates a shape the engine cannot produce. That is one instance of a general defect: nothing structurally prevents a rule from reading an input path the engine never emits. collect_input_paths catches the tree surface's declared keys; it does not catch a field within a fact, and it is a bespoke check rather than a derived one.

This issue decides the general mechanism, so the class closes rather than the instance.

It also unblocks scale. call_document and tree_document are hand-written projections — fine at nine facts, and the constraint that matters is that adding a fact family must be declaring a type and its class, with projection, schema, and rule-side checking all derived from that one declaration.

Two candidates — evaluate before building either

(a) Two toolchains. schemars generates JSON Schema from the same struct that derives Serialize (honouring #[serde(...)], so schema matches wire bytes by construction); # METADATA schemas: annotations bind Rego paths to it; upstream opa check -s runs at build time as a dev-only Go binary, never shipped; regorus evaluates at runtime. It produces exactly the error we want:

rego_type_error: undefined ref: input.request.kind.kinds
  have: "kinds"  want (one of): ["kind" "version"]

Half the machinery exists — schema/batten.schema.json is already schemars-generated from Config and drift-gated by crates/batten/tests/config_schema.rs. Cost: pinning opa against regorus's OPA v1.2.0 compliance level, plus a skew gate.

(b) regorus Target. Verified against a clone @ 39f535e: src/schema.rs is a general JSON-Schema-subset type system (derived from Bicep, not Azure-specific as first reported) consumed by the repo-agnostic Target mechanism in src/target.rsresource_schemas, effects, and __target__ = "..." opt-in, with src/interpreter/target/{infer,resolve}.rs doing schema-driven inference and effect validation. Native to the shipped engine: no Go dependency, no version skew. But it is target-config-driven rather than annotation-driven, and is not a static undefined-field checker, so it may not deliver a build-time failure at all.

Determining this is cheap. Do it first — the answer changes the cost of everything downstream.

The hole that makes either choice theatre if unaddressed

With a schema directory, input gets no global schema, and any rule lacking a # METADATA schemas: block is silently unchecked"will not be type checked with any schemas." Unconstrained paths type as Any. A gate that reports green while checking nothing is worse than no gate, and is the same failure CLOUD-845 is about.

Mechanism: a Regal aggregate rule requiring every rule in the corpus to carry a # METADATA schemas: block. Regal custom rules are Rego over the policy AST in .regal/rules/*.rego — a command with an exit code (non-negotiable rule 2).

Second gate, independent of the choice: no policy may reference rego.metadata.*. regorus has zero support (grep across lexer/parser/ast: zero hits; no builtin), so such a rule would behave differently under local opa and the shipped engine.

Corrections carried from the research, so they are not re-derived


Refinement — Ready

Refinement gate: Definition of Ready & Done. This body carries only specializations.

  • Source of truth (§1). The generated schema and the policy corpus, never a second register of field names. schema/batten.schema.json is already schemars-generated from Config and drift-gated by crates/batten/tests/config_schema.rs; whichever mechanism wins extends that derivation rather than adding a hand-maintained list beside it. The (a)/(b) evaluation is recorded on this row, so the choice is readable without being re-derived.
  • Computable predicate (§2). Three refusals, each a command and an exit code over a fixture module: a rule reading a field absent from the generated schema fails the build; a rule carrying no # METADATA schemas: block fails; a rule referencing rego.metadata.* fails. The second is the one that separates a gate from theatre — with a schema directory an unannotated rule types as Any and is silently unchecked, so a corpus-wide annotation requirement is what closes the no-op rather than the field check alone.
  • Effect (§3). read. The checking is build-time: under (a) it spawns a dev-only opa binary that is never shipped and is unreachable from batten hook; under (b) nothing new is spawned at all. No Authority changes, and no mediated-call kind acquires a spawn.
  • Generated artifacts (§4). The JSON Schema the annotations bind to, regenerated by mise run fix and drift-gated the way schema/batten.schema.json already is. Never hand-merge a generated diff.
  • Output / exit (§5). Unchanged — the 0/1/2/3 table, byte-stable. A refusal names the module and the offending input path, which is a pointer; it never carries a byte of the data at that path.
  • Commit / bump (§6). cino bump. Not ! for the consumer surface: no batten.toml row changes meaning and no exit code moves.
    The library half is mise run semver's answer. Should the chosen mechanism add a pub item, the type becomes feat and — below 0.1.0 — still a patch; this declaration is for the gate-only shape (a) delivers.
  • Test obligation (§7). Shown able to fail (CLOUD-418), one observed red each: a module reading a field the engine never emits; a module carrying no schema annotation; a module referencing rego.metadata.*. Plus the positive arm — a correctly annotated module reading only emitted fields builds green — because without it the three refusals would be indistinguishable from a gate that refuses everything. If (a) wins, a fourth: a pinned opa version disagreeing with regorus's declared compliance level fails.
  • Blockers (§8). None. CLOUD-879 consumes whatever this row chooses, so the two are sequenced as a board relation rather than as prose here.

Acceptance

  • The mechanism is chosen, with the (a)/(b) evaluation written down.
  • A rule reading a field absent from the generated schema fails the build.
  • A rule with no # METADATA schemas: block also fails, proving the silent no-op is closed. This is the acceptance test that separates a gate from theatre.
  • A rule referencing rego.metadata.* fails.
  • If (a) wins, a gate asserts the pinned opa version matches regorus's declared compliance level.

CLOUD-911 Fleet dispatch: the bash retirement in two bundles, sized for a cross-account handoff — ten rows in one PR, then the wave in another

Eleven rows, two bundles, two lands. The bundles and prompts live here rather than in a chat that dies with its container — CLOUD-607's precedent, CLOUD-784 and CLOUD-839's shape. This row is additionally written to survive its author running out of quota mid-flight: §"Resume protocol" is how a different account computes where the last one stopped, off the tree and the board, without asking anyone.

Why two PRs and not twenty

The landing lease is fleet-wide and charges per land, not per gate. land-lock's header: "hold a rolling fleet-wide landing lease, so exactly one branch at a time spends CI on a landing attempt." ci p95 is 701 s; one lap is rebase → verify → push → ci-wait/fast-forward, strictly serialized. CLOUD-843's own table:

batching lease acquisitions for the campaign pure landing time
one row per PR ~20 ~5 h
two bundles 2 ~30–40 min

One PR carrying many rows is the intended shape: CLOUD-661 retired the one-PR-per-ticket prescription for exactly this case and CLOUD-502 is Canceled.

Why not one PR. Two reasons. Bundle 2's content is created and validated by bundle 1's instruments — in one PR those instruments would never have been exercised against anything but their own fixtures before twenty suite deletions rode on them. And a quota stop mid-branch with everything in one PR leaves nothing landed; with bundle 1 landed, the next account inherits a repo that can already prove a migration faithful, and bundle 2 is resumable per gate.

The bundles

# Chain File domain PR shape
1 the floor CLOUD-879 → 851 → 883 → 907 → 880 → 908909 → 480 → 886 — 876 moves to the head of the chain, see Verification facts.rs, rules.rs, policy.rs, git.rs, schema/*, mise-tasks/mutant.sh, mise-tasks/test*, tests/*.bats 1 PR — everything that must exist before a gate can be retired
2 the wave CLOUD-910 mise-tasks/*.sh (deleted), tests/*.bats (deleted), policy/*.rego (new), batten.toml 1 PR — up to 20 gates, one land

Bundle 2 is blockedBy 908 and 909, both inside bundle 1, so the board refuses the wrong order rather than a reader remembering it.

The precondition a human must clear before dispatch

CLOUD-480 is In Progress and assigned, and it is inside bundle 1. claim-check refuses on assigned, so no other account can claim it — not this one, not a successor. Same for CLOUD-312, 856 and 857, which are the mediated-call half of the retirement and are not in either bundle for that reason.

Either those four are released or reassigned, or bundle 1 ships nine rows and CLOUD-480's mutation coverage slips to bundle 2 — which weakens the batch exactly where batching is most dangerous, since a false-green module hides inside a large green diff and mutant at five declared gates cannot see it. Releasing them is the cheaper move.

The fidelity chain, which is what bundle 1 exists to build

CLOUD-807's retires_with conserves files, not logic: it admits deleting a suite the moment its subject dies with nothing asserting what replaced it. Measured on the campaign's one completed retirement (dd1d6d8/076b65f, contract-drift): 22 @test cases deleted, 18 successors, six with no successor identifiable from the tree, and one case whose behaviour changed deliberately with nothing marking it. Four mechanisms close that, and no suite is deleted until all four hold:

  1. CLOUD-908 — every deleted case declared carried, subsumed or changed; unmapped refuses at deny.
  2. CLOUD-909 — per carried case, replay against the base rev's bash: identical pointer set, exit code through a declared translation, never a raw equality, remedy text preserved.
  3. CLOUD-480 — a #MUTANT the new tests provably catch.
  4. The preset split check (in CLOUD-910) — for a preset only, replay green in this repo with the preset enabled and consumer facts in batten.toml.

Dispatch prompts

Two self-contained blocks — one paste per session, nothing to prepend. The workflow contract is repeated verbatim inside each, and the repetition is the point: CLOUD-728 measured five bundles coming up unsupervised because a human pasted one quoted block and dropped a shared contract.

Bundle 1 — the floor

You are bundle 1 of the CLOUD-911 bash-retirement dispatch in the Batten repo.
Read CLOUD-911 first: it carries the resume protocol, the census baseline and the
fidelity chain. Bundle 2 cannot start until your PR lands.

ONE branch, ONE draft PR, landed in this order:
  CLOUD-876 -> 879 -> 851 -> 883 -> 907 -> 880 -> 908 -> 909 -> 480 -> 886

Ten rows in one PR is the point, not a deviation (CLOUD-661 retired the
one-PR-per-ticket rule; CLOUD-502 is Canceled). The landing lease is fleet-wide
and charges per land: ci p95 is 701s per lap. Split only if a row genuinely will
not land, and say so on that row.

The order is dependency, not taste:
- 876 FIRST, then 879. 876 DECIDES the schema mechanism -- two candidates, and
  879's own body says it "consumes whatever it chooses ... so sequence them".
  Doing 879 first means building the derivation against an undecided target.
  This edge is now a real blockedBy on the board (879 blockedBy 876), so the
  queue refuses the wrong order rather than you remembering it.
  879 then derives the policy-input projection from the declaration instead of
  hand-writing it, so every fact family after it is a declaration rather than
  another edit to a central function.
- NEITHER 876 NOR 879 CARRIES A READY BLOCK. Both are `no-ready-block` under
  `mise run ready-lint`. Groom them BEFORE writing code -- their "Done when"
  sections are close but are not the DoR's sections 1-8, and claim-check's
  refined-this-session arm is downstream of that.
  (876's own job: make a rule reading a field the engine never emits fail at
  BUILD time -- CLOUD-845's defect generalised. Read its two candidates, (a)
  schemars + `# METADATA schemas:` + `opa check -s`, and (b) regorus `Target`;
  determining which delivers a build-time failure is cheap and the row says to
  do it first.)
- 851 (a notion of production/sink -- eleven bash writers have no expressible
  sink today), 883 (glob is one inclusive pattern with no exclusion).
- 907 then 880: the git fact family. 50 of the 85 gate-described tasks read git
  and NO general git fact exists -- no branch, HEAD, merge-base, ancestry, log,
  status or remote. 907's FIRST deliverable is re-deriving the bucket count at
  85 (CLOUD-843 measured it at 82); the number sizes the rest of the campaign
  and an estimate cannot schedule it. Classify by COMMAND-POSITION invocation
  with comments stripped, per .claude/rules/scanning.md row two -- a substring
  scan put ci-local-parity in the forge bucket because the token was in a
  comment. 880 composes over 907 rather than resolving refs of its own.
  Declaration-bounded acquisition, never an ambient walk. Every could-not-look
  condition (no commits, detached HEAD, no remote, unresolvable ref) is
  Look::CouldNotLook, asserted DISTINCT from empty -- Rego reads an undefined
  path as "does not hold", so collapsing them ships a gate that is silently off.
- 908 then 909: the two instruments, and they are the deliverable bundle 2
  depends on. Read both rows in full. The short version:
    908 -- retires_with conserves FILES, not LOGIC. Extend the same shape
    (rules.rs:3805-3902, git.rs:1661) so a deleting PR declares, per test case,
    exactly one of carried / subsumed / changed. Unmapped refuses at deny.
    909 -- the differential replay. Per CARRIED case: run the bash AS IT EXISTS
    AT THE BASE REV (git show <base>:mise-tasks/<x>.sh) and the new row over the
    dying case's OWN fixture. Assert IDENTICAL POINTER SET byte-for-byte, and
    the exit code through a DECLARED TRANSLATION -- shell 1 (violation) ->
    batten 2, shell 0 -> 0, shell 2 (could-not-look) -> batten 1.
    DO NOT ASSERT IDENTICAL EXIT CODES. crates/batten/tests/contract_drift.rs's
    header records why: the shell tasks use 1 = violation and batten's contract
    is the inverse, so a carried-over `assert_equal $status 1` asserts
    "unreadable input" while meaning "violation", and it PASSES. Also assert the
    remedy survives (CLOUD-437) -- a msg that lost its remedy in translation is
    a regression the pointer comparison cannot see.
    Generalize tests/run-shape.bats, which drives the compiled binary through
    `batten hook`. OFF the landing path, the way mutant is.
- 480 and 886 last: 480 declares a #MUTANT per gate that its tests provably
  catch (the anti-false-green instrument bundle 2's batching depends on); 886
  fixes test:bats globbing mise-tasks/** so a one-sentence change stops running
  all 150 suites.

CALIBRATION, and it is a real deliverable rather than a nicety: retrofit 908's
mapping to the ONE completed port. contract-drift.sh (215 lines) and
contract-drift.bats (22 cases) were retired in dd1d6d8/076b65f for
contract_drift.rs (12 #[test]) plus 6 unit tests in src/contract.rs. Six cases
have no successor identifiable from the tree: "it names the event it was called
on", "an untracked file under mise-tasks is not contract", "a payload with no
session_id still works", "unparseable input fails open", "empty input fails
open", "the bypass is honoured". Map all 22. Three are plausibly held now by
guardrail_bypass.rs / cli.rs -- name them if so. If any is a real gap, the row
that finds it is worth more than the mechanism that found it.

SHOWN ABLE TO FAIL (CLOUD-418), one OBSERVED red per arm, not asserted: an
unmapped case; an arm naming a target that does not exist; a case carrying two
arms; a row whose pointer set differs; a row diverging on a case NOT marked
changed; a translation declared as 1 -> 1; a migrated refusal that dropped its
remedy. Plus the positive arm in each case, or the rule admits everything. A
chain never observed failing is not a chain.

CLOUD-480 MAY STILL BE In Progress AND ASSIGNED. claim-check refuses on
`assigned`. If you cannot claim it, land the other nine and say so on CLOUD-911
-- do not work around the claim gate and do not silently drop the row.

CONFLICTS: you are the only branch in facts.rs/rules.rs/policy.rs/git.rs/schema.
If another lands under you, rebase and re-run `mise run fix` to REGENERATE
schema/batten.schema.json and schema/batten.local.schema.json -- never merge a
generated diff; two merged regenerations produce a file neither branch would
have produced.

WORKFLOW CONTRACT (AGENTS.md is authoritative; this is the summary):
- Claim by hand BEFORE writing code: `mise run claim-check`, and assign
  yourself. The automation fires on the PR event, the END of the work, so
  waiting for it reserves nothing.
- `git fetch origin main`, short-lived branch, never author on main.
- Commit early and often. You are pre-authorized to commit and push without
  asking.
- Run the full `mise run verify` after EVERY commit. Local execution is free; a
  CI run is metered and the landing lease is fleet-wide.
- Open the PR as a DRAFT immediately. CI does not run on drafts, so you iterate
  at zero CI cost.
- perf-compare is a RATIO and a dev container's baseline is ~3.5x CI's: a fixed
  ~9ms cost reads ~1.19x locally and 1.64x on CI. A LOCAL GREEN DOES NOT CLEAR
  IT. Read the CI number.
- When the chain is complete: `mise run linear-check`, then `mise run land`
  backgrounded. Do NOT ready by hand -- land readies after its push. Do NOT wrap
  land in bespoke retry or pre-check logic; main advancing under you is that
  loop working.
- Background anything that can exceed ~2 minutes; a foreground command is killed
  at ~2 min.
- Move the Linear row as you move the work. Carry the lifecycle to
  landed-and-verified without stopping to report and wait.
- UPDATE CLOUD-911's PROGRESS SECTION AT EVERY COMMIT: the branch name, the PR
  number, and which rows are done. Your quota may end mid-branch. The next
  account reads that section and the tree -- never a chat transcript.

Bundle 2 — the wave

You are bundle 2 of the CLOUD-911 bash-retirement dispatch in the Batten repo.
Read CLOUD-911 first, then CLOUD-910, which is your row. CLOUD-911 carries the
resume protocol, the census baseline and the fidelity chain.

BUNDLE 1 MUST HAVE LANDED. Verify that on the tree, not from this prompt: the
mapping ratchet (CLOUD-908) and the replay task (CLOUD-909) must both exist, or
you will delete suites with nothing asserting what replaced them.

ONE branch, ONE draft PR: CLOUD-910 -- up to 20 TREE-SCOPED GATES. The 8
structured-config gates plus the 12 that CLOUD-845's tracked list and CLOUD-846's
lines fact unblocked. Re-derive the exact set at wave start; CLOUD-843's
classification was taken at 82 gate-described tasks and there are now 85.
mise-pin-agreement is the pilot and goes INSIDE the batch, not before it:
CLOUD-843 wants a measured per-gate cost, and it measures the same as the first
gate of 20 for one lease acquisition instead of two.

DESTINATION -- there are two and they are DIFFERENT MOVES:
- An IN-REPO MODULE (policy/*.rego) is the DEFAULT. It MAY name this repo's
  facts: tracker keys, mise-tasks/ paths, our layout. The move is a TRANSLATION
  -- same predicate, same facts, new language.
- A VENDORED PRESET (crates/batten/src/policy/presets/**) may name NONE of them:
  non-negotiable rule 1, gated by presets_are_inside_the_rule_one_glob in
  crates/batten/tests/policy_presets.rs. The move is a SPLIT -- generic
  predicate to the preset, consumer facts to batten.toml. A gate becomes a
  preset ONLY if its predicate is generic once the facts are pulled out. That is
  a MINORITY. Forcing a consumer-specific gate into a preset is how rule 1 gets
  violated by a well-meaning migration.
policy/privileged-lane.rego is the template for the structured-config bucket: it
asks with doc.jobs what ci-local-parity asks with 35 regexes over the same YAML.

PER RETIRED GATE, all four or that gate STAYS BASH this round:
(a) MAPPED (CLOUD-908) -- every test in the dying suite is carried / subsumed /
    changed. Unmapped refuses at deny.
(b) REPLAYED (CLOUD-909) -- per CARRIED case, against the base rev's bash:
    pointer set identical byte-for-byte, exit code through the DECLARED
    TRANSLATION and NEVER a raw equality, remedy text preserved (CLOUD-437).
(c) MUTATED (CLOUD-480) -- a #MUTANT the new tests provably catch.
    mise-pin-agreement carries none today, so migrating it should ADD one:
    coverage improves as a side effect rather than degrading.
(d) SPLIT-CHECKED -- preset only: the replay green IN THIS REPO with the preset
    enabled and the consumer facts moved to batten.toml. Pass means the facts
    are wired; fail means they went missing in translation.
A gate short of any one of the four stays bash, NAMED ON CLOUD-910 with the arm
it failed. Stretching the evidence to hit a count is the failure mode this wave
exists to prevent.

THE MAPPING TABLE IS THE PROGRESS LEDGER. Commit it per gate, as you go. It is
what lets another session -- or another ACCOUNT -- resume this branch mid-wave
without asking anyone. A gate with no mapping block is untouched; a block with

WORKFLOW CONTRACT (AGENTS.md is authoritative; this is the summary):
- Claim by hand BEFORE writing code: `mise run claim-check`, and assign
  yourself. The automation fires on the PR event, the END of the work, so
  waiting for it reserves nothing.
- `git fetch origin main`, short-lived branch, never author on main.
- Commit early and often. You are pre-authorized to commit and push without
  asking.
- Run the full `mise run verify` after EVERY commit. Local execution is free; a
  CI run is metered and the landing lease is fleet-wide.
- Open the PR as a DRAFT immediately. CI does not run on drafts.
- When the chain is complete: `mise run linear-check`, then `mise run land`
  backgrounded. Do NOT ready by hand. Do NOT wrap land in bespoke retry logic.
- Background anything that can exceed ~2 minutes; a foreground command is killed
  at ~2 min.
- Move the Linear row as you move the work.
- UPDATE CLOUD-911's PROGRESS SECTION AT EVERY COMMIT: branch, PR number, and
  which gates have cleared all four arms.

Verification, run 2026-08-22 on bfda756

This row's §2 asserts the graph and the Ready blocks. Both were run rather than claimed, and the run changed the dispatch — which is the point of running it.

graph-check over the five new rows, quoted verbatim

graph status-claim-unscannable (CLOUD-911 claims CLOUD-502 is Canceled, which no piped issue occupies — pipe one that does)
graph status-claim-unscannable (CLOUD-911 claims CLOUD-480 is In Progress, which no piped issue occupies — pipe one that does)

CLOUD-910 excluded (blocked-by CLOUD-908 CLOUD-909)

frontier CLOUD-908

frontier CLOUD-911

The ordering claim holds: CLOUD-910 is excluded behind 908 and 909, so the board refuses the wrong bundle order rather than a reader remembering it.

The three exit-2 lines are CLOUD-838's status-claim-unscannable arm firing on claims about ids outside the piped closure — a property of the chosen closure, not of the board, and the same residue CLOUD-839 recorded verbatim for the same reason. CLOUD-907 is absent from the frontier for a different and benign reason: board-payloads recovers the newest get_issue payload, and 907's was taken while it was still Backlog. Its board status is Todo; the cached payload is stale, exactly as board-payloads's own header warns.

ready-lint, per row

row verdict
CLOUD-907, 908, 909, 910, 911 exit 0
CLOUD-876 exit 1 — no-ready-block
CLOUD-879 exit 1 — no-ready-block

Two rows inside bundle 1 are not groomed. Both carry a "Done when" section rather than the DoR's §1–§8, which is close enough to read as refined and is not. They sit in Todo, which is the ready queue — so this is a grooming precondition alongside the claim wall, and it is cheap: both bodies already carry the substance.

The ordering defect this found

The first draft of bundle 1 put 879 first. CLOUD-879's own body says "CLOUD-876 decides the schema mechanism. This issue consumes whatever it chooses — the derivation target differs between # METADATA annotations and regorus Target schemas, so sequence them." That dependency existed only as prose in one row's body; neither row carried a relation. It is now a blockedBy on the board (879 blockedBy 876), and the chain above is corrected. This is CLOUD-784's rule applied: every ordering hazard is a real relation, so the queue refuses a wrong order rather than a reviewer remembering it.

Still unrun, and named rather than implied

graph-check was not run over the six pre-existing bundle-1 rows as one closure (851, 883, 880, 886, plus 480 and 886's own relations). Four get_issue payloads short, and the two edges that could have broken the chain — 910's blockers and 879→876 — are both verified above. A bundle-1 agent should re-run graph-check over its full chain at claim time; it is free and this row may be stale by then.

Resume protocol — how a different account picks this up

Every signal is read off the tree or the board. None of it lives in a chat transcript, which is the point: a container is reclaimed, an account hits a limit, and the work has to be resumable by someone who was never in the room.

question answered by
Did bundle 1 land? git log origin/main for the replay task and the schema regeneration; CLOUD-908 and 909 in In Review
How far into bundle 2? the committed mapping table — one block per retired suite. A gate with no block is untouched
Is a gate half-migrated? its .rego exists and its mapping block does not, or its block has unmapped cases
Which rows are claimed, and by whom? the board. claim-check refuses on assigned, so a successor must be handed the assignment, not just the prompt
Is the branch resumable? it is pushed to a draft PR. Committed-and-pushed is the only state that survives a VM reclaim
What is "done"? the census moving down, asserted — CLOUD-843 §2 against the bfda756 baseline

Progress (each bundle updates this section at every commit — branch, PR, rows done)

  • Bundle 1 — in flight. Branch claude/cloud-911-bundle-plan-9n3fsg, based on 170c7c4. No PR yet.
    • Preconditions cleared. CLOUD-876 and CLOUD-879 are groomed to the DoR's §1–§8 and both now pass mise run ready-lint at exit 0 — the RED half of this row's §2 predicate is closed.
    • The claim wall was real, and it fired on the OTHER arm. Grooming in the implementing session trips claim-check's refined-this-session, exactly as this row's dispatch prompt anticipated. Claimed under BATTEN_CLAIM_CHECK_BYPASS=1, which records the self-refinement in the receipt — CLOUD-431's designed path, with the human decision taken explicitly rather than assumed.
    • The CLOUD-480 claim wall is still up. Checked on the board at 18:15: still In Progress and assigned. The intent to release it was given, the board was not changed, and this note previously said it had been — corrected here rather than left standing, because this section is the resume protocol's only durable channel and a false entry in it is worse than none. Bundle 1 proceeds on the other nine and settles 480 when the chain reaches it.
    • CLOUD-876 — In Progress. The mechanism is decided: (a), and the evaluation is a comment on that row. (b) is refused by two landed gates rather than on the merits this row guessed at: Target/Schema are behind regorus's azure_policy feature, which adds 28 packages including jsonschema (evaluator-closure-check's IO_CRATES) and core-foundation-sys via chrono (macos-link-check's FRAMEWORK_CRATES, CLOUD-885's chain). Measured, then reverted.
    • Landed on the branch so far: opa 1.2.0 and regal 0.42.0 pinned, and mise-tasks/opa-compliance-agreement.sh — the skew gate 876's acceptance names — with a 10-case suite, registered in hk.pkl and declared in $MUTANT_GATES. Its mutant is caught.
    • Still open on 876: the schemars → # METADATA schemas:opa check -s wiring, the Regal aggregate rule requiring an annotation on every rule, and the rego.metadata.* refusal.
  • A finding for CLOUD-480, carried forward rather than filed separately. $MUTANT_GATES now holds 54 names, not the five 480's body describes — that row's premise is stale and its remaining scope is much smaller than filed. And mise run mutant on 170c7c4 reports one pre-existing red: ready-lint/replay-demanded-of-a-warn-gate SURVIVED. Not caused by this branch (ready-lint.sh is untouched); it is exactly the "a suite that cannot discriminate is a finding about that suite" case 480 reserves, and it is 480's to resolve inside this bundle.
  • Bundle 2 — blocked on bundle 1.

Dispatched by hand, and that is settled

create_session is refused upstream: the session-management tools carry a mandatory-approval flag and bypassPermissions, an explicit permissions.allow entry and a PreToolUse allow hook are all recorded as tested and failing. CLOUD-734 is Done and carries the measurement; CLOUD-731, 784 and 839 are the precedents. Do not spend a turn re-attempting it. A human opens two sessions and pastes the prompts above, and confirms each session's permission mode in the UI — get_session is unavailable, so no agent can confirm it, and CLOUD-728 measured five bundles coming up in the wrong mode and running to landed unwatched.

This row's own lifecycle

CLOUD-735: a dispatch record opens no PR and lands no commit, so both gates out of In Progress are unreachable for it by construction. Leave it in Todo and close it by hand once both bundles are away, rather than pulling it and stranding it.


Refinement — Ready

Refinement gate: Definition of Ready & Done. This body carries only specializations.

  • Source of truth (§1). The board and the tree. Every ordering claim here is a blockedBy relation (CLOUD-910 blocked by 908 and 909), and the census baseline is a measurement over bfda756 rather than a hand-derived list — if this row and the tree disagree, the tree is right and this row is stale.
  • Computable predicate (§2). mise run graph-check over the piped closure prints a frontier whose roots are the bundle heads and excludes CLOUD-910 behind 908 and 909. Every row in the dispatch passes mise run ready-lint at exit 0. Both were run on 2026-08-22 and the output is quoted verbatim in §Verification, including the two failures it foundCLOUD-876 and CLOUD-879 are no-ready-block, so that half of the predicate is currently RED and grooming them is a dispatch precondition, not a formality. The graph-check run also carries three status-claim-unscannable lines for claims about ids outside the piped closure, which is CLOUD-838's arm behaving correctly (CLOUD-839 recorded the same residue for the same reason).
  • Effect (§3). free — a tracker record. Nothing is resolved, built or spawned.
  • Generated artifacts (§4). None.
  • Output / exit (§5). No command surface is touched.
  • Commit / bump (§6). none — this row lands no commit.
  • Test obligation (§7). None of its own; each bundle's rows carry theirs. The claims here that could be wrong are the bundle membership and the census baseline, and re-running graph-check and CLOUD-843 §2 falsifies them.
  • Blockers (§8). None.

CLOUD-908 `retires_with` conserves files, not logic: the one completed port deleted 22 bats cases and six of them have no successor anything in the tree can name

Why

CLOUD-807 landed retires_with, which admits deleting a bats suite exactly when its declared # subject: dies. That was the precondition for retiring anything, and it is correct. It conserves files. Nothing conserves logic. The ratchet asks "is the subject gone?" and never "did the cases move?", so a migration can delete a 259-line suite and land green with nothing asserting what replaced it. CLOUD-843 names this as the trap the permit created: "the ratchet will admit deleting a suite whose task died, with nothing asserting the Rego that replaced it. The permit made coverage evaporation quiet."

Measured on the one retirement that has actually happened

dd1d6d8 / 076b65f deleted mise-tasks/contract-drift.sh (215 lines) and tests/contract-drift.bats (259 lines, 22 @test cases), replacing them with crates/batten/tests/contract_drift.rs (12 #[test]) plus 6 unit tests in src/contract.rs. It is a careful port — the header states which half each layer covers, several cases carry an explicit "Fails by:" clause, and one is labelled "carried over verbatim in meaning".

It is also unverifiable. Mapping the 22 by hand, six have no successor identifiable from the tree:

dropped case plausible successor, unrecorded
it names the event it was called on
an untracked file under mise-tasks is not contract possibly contradicted — see below
a payload with no session_id still works, on a shared key
unparseable input fails open crates/batten/tests/cli.rs?
empty input fails open crates/batten/tests/cli.rs?
the bypass is honoured crates/batten/tests/guardrail_bypass.rs?

Three of those are plausibly generic batten hook properties now, held by the engine rather than the script — which is a good outcome and exactly what migration should produce. Nothing in the tree records that it happened. The only way to find out is to open two files and re-derive the mapping by hand, which is what a 20-gate batch makes impossible and what retires_with admits silently.

And one case changed behaviour deliberately, with nothing marking it. The bats suite asserted "an untracked file under mise-tasks is not contract". The Rust successor writes an uncommitted mise-tasks/brand-new-gate and asserts it is drift, with the reason in a doc comment ([epoch] tracked structurally cannot see a file that did not exist when the list was written). That is defensible. It is still a behaviour change, and no mechanism distinguishes it from an accident.

The mechanism: three arms, decidable from two trees

The deleting PR declares, per @test case in the dying suite, exactly one of:

  1. carried — names the test_ rule or #[test] that now holds it. Feeds the differential replay.
  2. subsumed — names a general property elsewhere (guardrail_bypass.rs, cli.rs, an engine invariant) that now covers it, because the plumbing it tested became the engine's rather than the script's.
  3. changed — deliberately, with the reason, as the untracked-file case above.

An unmapped case refuses the deletion at deny. No network, no judgement — the same class retires_with already is, reading a declared token out of the base tree (rules.rs:3805-3902, git.rs:1661) and refused at load without base.

The mapping is declared, never inferred, for the reason CLOUD-807 already established for # subject:: measured, 19 of 141 suites have no same-named mise-tasks/ program and all 19 are legitimate. A name heuristic over case titles would be worse — titles are prose.

Second job, and it is why this row is worth its own mechanism rather than a review checklist: the mapping is the handoff ledger. It is committed per gate as a wave proceeds, so a different session — or a different account — reads progress off the tree instead of off a chat transcript that dies with its container. A gate with no mapping block is untouched; a block with unmapped cases is half-done.


Refinement — Ready

Refinement gate: Definition of Ready & Done. This body carries only specializations.

  • Source of truth (§1). The two trees the ratchet already reads — the base rev's suite and the head's successors. The mapping is declared in the head tree beside the rule it belongs to; there is no second register of what has migrated.
  • Computable predicate (§2). A change deleting @test cases from a suite whose declared subject died is admitted iff every deleted case carries exactly one of the three arms and each arm's named target resolves in the head tree. Any unmapped case, any arm naming a target that does not exist, or more than one arm on one case → exit 2, at severity deny.
  • Effect (§3). read — two trees, no network, no spawn. It extends an existing ratchet rather than adding a rule kind.
  • Generated artifacts (§4). schema/batten.schema.json and schema/batten.local.schema.json regenerate for the new row key. derived-check and schema-check gate both. Regenerate with mise run fix; never merge a generated diff.
  • Output / exit (§5). Pointer-only: the refusal names the suite, the case count and the unmapped case's path:line — never the case body, and never the deleted assertion's text.
  • Commit / bump (§6). feat(rules)not !: an additional optional column on an existing rule kind, so no published shape is broken and no consumer's config stops loading.
  • Test obligation (§7). Shown able to fail (CLOUD-418), one observed red each: (a) a deletion with one unmapped case is refused; (b) an arm naming a test_ rule that does not exist in the head tree is refused; (c) a case carrying two arms is refused; (d) a fully mapped deletion whose subject died loads and passes — the positive arm, which without (a)–(c) would be a rule that admits everything; (e) a deletion whose subject still exists still denies, so this row does not weaken retires_with's existing clause.
  • Blockers (§8). None.

Acceptance

  • The three arms are declarable and an unmapped case refuses at deny.
  • Each of (a)–(e) has been observed red or green as stated, not asserted.
  • The calibration is landed, not planned: contract-drift's 22 cases are mapped retroactively. Each of the six above is resolved to subsumed with a named target, or to carried, or it is a real coverage gap and gets its own row — and the row that finds a gap is worth more than the mechanism that found it.
  • The mapping's location and shape are documented as the handoff ledger, so a resuming session reads progress from the tree.

CLOUD-909 A migrated gate's fidelity is a doc comment: the shell tasks spell `1 = violation` and batten's contract is the inverse, so a carried-over `assert_equal $status 1` asserts the wrong thing and passes

Why

batten policy test (CLOUD-835) gives a migrated module somewhere to put its tests. It cannot say the module answers the way the bash it replaced did — only that the module agrees with itself. CLOUD-845 measured the sharp end of that: a module copied from policy.rs's own doc passed policy test green and gated nothing, because with input as lets the author fabricate the very shape the engine cannot produce. 845's landed fix refuses a with input as naming an unemittable key, which closes that class. It does not establish fidelity.

Today fidelity is a claim in a doc comment. That is not a criticism of the one port that exists — it is careful, and its header is the best evidence available. It is an argument that the evidence has to be produced by a command, because the next twenty will be authored in one PR.

The hazard, measured, and it is not the obvious one

The obvious harness — run both, assert the same exit code — is wrong here, and crates/batten/tests/contract_drift.rs's own header says why:

"the exit numbers are translated rather than copied: the shell tasks use 1 = violation, where batten's contract is the inverse (house-style §7). Carrying a bats assert_equal $status 1 across unchanged would assert 'unreadable input' while meaning 'violation' — and it would pass, which is the false green that hazard exists to name."

So an equality assertion would demand the migration preserve the contract it exists to fix, and the naive carry-over passes it. A human stepped around this by hand, once. Twenty gates in one PR will not get twenty careful humans.

The mechanism

Per carried case (CLOUD-908's first arm) in a dying suite:

  1. Materialise that case's own fixture — not a new one written for the harness. The evidence has to come from the thing being deleted.
  2. Run the bash program as it exists at the base rev: git show <base>:mise-tasks/<x>.sh. It is still in the base tree at the moment of deletion, which is why this can only be produced inside the PR that deletes it, and why that is the right place for it.
  3. Run the new row over the same fixture, through the compiled binary.
  4. Assert:
    • identical pointer set, byte for byte. This is the invariant half and the half worth pinning: a pointer survives the exit-code translation unchanged, and non-negotiable rule 4 already forbids either side carrying anything else.
    • exit code through a declared translation, never a raw equality: shell 1 (violation) → batten 2; shell 00; shell 2 (could-not-look) → batten 1. The translation is declared per suite and asserted, because that is exactly where the false green lives.
    • the remedy survives. CLOUD-437's clause: a migrated gate's refusal text must still name its remedy. A msg that lost the remedy in translation is a regression no bats case would have caught, and the pointer-set comparison does not see it.

Only carried cases are replayed. Subsumed cases are discharged by CLOUD-908's named successor. Changed cases are expected to diverge — and a replay red on a case not marked changed is the failure this instrument exists to report.

Generalize tests/run-shape.bats, which already drives the compiled binary through batten hook — the door a real call comes through. Off the landing path, the way mutant is: it is evidence for a migration, not a per-land tax.


Refinement — Ready

Refinement gate: Definition of Ready & Done. This body carries only specializations.

  • Source of truth (§1). Two revs of one tree: the base rev's bash program and its suite, and the head's module. The exit-code translation is declared beside the mapping rather than hard-coded in the harness, so a gate that genuinely does not follow the shell convention can say so instead of being silently mistranslated.
  • Computable predicate (§2). For each carried case: pointer sets equal byte-for-byte and the observed exit-code pair is admitted by the declared translation and the new refusal text still names a remedy. Any of the three failing → exit 2, naming the case. A case marked changed is exempt from the first two by declaration; a case not so marked that diverges is the reported failure.
  • Effect (§3). effect — it spawns the base rev's bash program in a fixture directory. That is why it sits off the landing path beside mutant and never inside the mediated call. It is not registered in the hk gate and adds nothing to verify's hot path.
  • Generated artifacts (§4). None.
  • Output / exit (§5). Pointer-only, and this one is load-bearing rather than formal: the harness compares two findings and must report that they differ, plus the case name and path:linenever the two pointer sets side by side, which would put a diff of tracked content on stdout. crates/batten/tests/pointer_only.rs is the existing shape.
  • Commit / bump (§6). feat(tasks)not !: a new off-path task, no published surface changed, no consumer's config affected.
  • Test obligation (§7). Shown able to fail (CLOUD-418), one observed red each: (a) a module whose pointer set differs from the bash's is reported, naming the case; (b) the naive carry-over — a translation declared as 1 → 1 is refused, because the hazard above was navigated by hand once and the mechanism must be seen catching it; (c) a module that diverges on a case not marked changed is reported, while the same divergence on a case marked changed passes; (d) a migrated refusal whose msg dropped its remedy is reported; (e) the positive arm — a faithful migration replays green across every carried case, which without (a)–(d) would be a harness that admits everything.
  • Blockers (§8). None. Consumes CLOUD-908's carried arm, and lands on the same branch after it.

Acceptance

  • The replay runs per carried case, over the dying suite's own fixtures, against the base rev's bash.
  • Pointer sets are compared byte-for-byte; exit codes go through a declared translation and never a raw equality.
  • The remedy clause is asserted.
  • Each of (a)–(e) observed, not asserted.
  • Off the landing path: verify's wall-clock is unchanged, measured rather than argued.

CLOUD-886 `test:bats` globs `mise-tasks/**`, so a one-sentence change runs all 151 suites — and the two inputs selection needs now both exist

Why

hk.pkl declares the test:bats step with glob = List("mise-tasks/**", "tests/*.bats"). Any byte changed under mise-tasks/ runs all 151 suites — 1,188s serial, ~290s wall at --jobs 4, and test:bats is ~81% of the ci job.

Measured today: correcting one sentence in mise-tasks/land's lap-cap message bought a full CI matrix. That is not an edge case, it is the campaign's normal shape — CLOUD-843's waves touch mise-tasks/ on every lap, and each lap pays the whole suite to re-run 150 suites whose subject nobody edited.

The two inputs selection needs now both exist, and neither did a day ago.

  • Every suite declares its subject. All 151 of 151 tests/*.bats carry a # subject: header (CLOUD-807's mechanism). 143 name one path, 7 name two. The paths are overwhelmingly mise-tasks/<name>, plus a handful of mise.toml, hk.pkl, batten.toml, .claude/hooks/*, tests/* and policy/*.
  • Every suite's cost is recorded. bench/suites/RESULTS.md (landed b4ea891) carries per-suite durations derived from the report test:bats already writes, so the saving of any selection is computable before it is built.

So "which suites can this diff move, and what do they cost" is answerable from committed text. A change to mise-tasks/land selects tests/land.bats: 141.5s instead of 1,188s.

The failure mode is silent, and it decides the whole design. A selection that is too wide costs money and is obvious in the bill. A selection that is too narrow does not fail: the suites simply do not run, ran matches whatever was selected, and a regression lands green. That asymmetry is why this ships with a gate over its own honesty rather than with a comment claiming the map is right — the shape rust-paths-check set for the one other glob in this repository that decides whether work runs at all.

The hole a naive design would have. Subject-intersection alone is unsafe, because several subjects are inputs to nearly every suite: mise.toml defines the tasks the suites invoke, hk.pkl defines the gate, batten.toml is the policy authority, and tests/helpers is sourced widely. A mise.toml edit that breaks land would select only the 7 suites naming mise.toml and skip tests/land.bats. Any design that does not carve those out is worse than running everything.

Refinement — Ready (select by declared subject, fail open toward cost)

  • Source of truth (§1). The # subject: headers themselves and the changed-path set from git. No second map: the headers are the authority, and a suite that does not declare one is a refusal rather than a default.
  • Mechanism as a computable predicate (§2). Selection applies only when every changed path is a mise-tasks/<name> or a tests/<name>.bats whose subject resolves. Any shared input — mise.toml, mise.lock, hk.pkl, batten.toml, .claude/settings.json, tests/helpers* — or any unresolvable subject, or any path outside that set, means run everything. Deny-list, not allow-list, for the same reason CLOUD-398's slow-tier decision is: the set of things that can move a suite is not enumerable, so the predicate must be "provably inert" rather than "probably unaffected".
  • The anti-vacuity assertion moves with it (§2). test:bats asserts ran == expected over every @test in the tree, and that exists to catch "a suite that got faster by running fewer tests" (CLOUD-386) — which is exactly what selection does. expected must be computed from the selected suites, by the same map that chose them, so the assertion still discriminates. An expected derived from a second list would be the defect wearing the fix's clothes.
  • Deliberately not in scope (§2). Per-case selection inside a suite; the worker count, which CLOUD-386 measured and settled at $(nproc); and the cargo suite, which has its own selection story.
  • Effect (§3). read. The selector reads committed text and a diff; it runs nothing and decides nothing about content.
  • Output and exit (§5). Pointer-only: the count selected and the reason a wide run was chosen. Never a case name, never a diff.
  • Commit / bump (§6). feat(ci)patch.
  • Test obligation (§7). Mutation-checked per CLOUD-418, and the probes are the deliverable rather than the selector: a change to mise-tasks/land must select tests/land.bats; a change to mise.toml must select everything; a change to a file with no resolvable subject must select everything; a memories-only change selects nothing and is not reached at all because the step's glob does not match it. The narrow-selection probe is the one that must be shown able to fail, because it is the direction with no symptom.
  • Blockers (§8). None. relatedTo CLOUD-807 (the subject headers this consumes), CLOUD-386 (the anti-vacuity assertion this moves, and the worker-count measurement it must not disturb), CLOUD-843 (the campaign that pays this cost on every wave), CLOUD-352 (the cost-visibility work the corpus came from), CLOUD-884 (a defect in that corpus's generator, found after it landed).

Acceptance

  • A change touching only one mise-tasks/<name> runs that name's suite(s) and no others, shown by the reported count.
  • A change touching mise.toml, hk.pkl or batten.toml runs everything, shown the same way.
  • ran == expected still holds and still discriminates: a suite silently dropped from the selection fails it.
  • The saving is measured against bench/suites/RESULTS.md rather than asserted — the selected total versus the 1,188s serial baseline.
  • The narrow-selection probe is shown red before the gate exists and green after.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds OPA compliance checks, package-level schema-binding enforcement, and schema-backed policy validation. Rust now generates tree and mediated-call policy schemas through new CLI surfaces, with committed-schema round-trip tests. Rules can declare journal, baseline, or marker sinks that persist deterministic records under the Git directory and expose prior records to tree policies. Rules can also exclude selected paths from glob matches and declare bounded Git facts. Shell completions and manuals describe the new schema surfaces. The glob parser now ignores comment lines inside glob lists, with regression coverage.

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to ba08d

The PR adds policy enforcement, replay, suite selection, schema, and fact behavior, but the current version can accept unavailable inputs, omit policy findings, skip conservation obligations, reject or ignore configuration incorrectly, and run incomplete validation suites. These are high-impact correctness risks, so the PR is not ready to merge until they are fixed or explicitly accepted by owners.

Comment thread policy/opa-compliance.rego
wenzowski added a commit that referenced this pull request Aug 22, 2026
The compliance gate shipped a vacuous pass, in the module whose own header cites
CLOUD-845 for that exact class. Found by CodeRabbit on #660, reproduced before
fixing and re-run after.

`input.tree.missing` catches a manifest that fails to PARSE. It says nothing
about one that parses cleanly and simply lacks the key -- and in Rego an
undefined reference makes its whole rule body undefined, so every comparison
produced no result. Measured with `opa eval` over a manifest carrying none of
the four required keys:

    before: []          (green, over a manifest it never read)
    after:  4           (one finding per unreadable key)

Delete the `opa` pin alone and the gate reported agreement. The bash draft this
replaced got this right by accident, because a shell variable that comes back
empty is visible where an undefined Rego reference is not -- which is the part
worth keeping: three-valued discipline has to be written per ACCESSOR, not once
per file.

Also closes the same hole one level in. `version_line` (renamed from `line`, and
now explicitly `is_string`-guarded) is undefined for a non-string and for a
single-component string, and that undefined propagated into the comparisons as
silence: `"1"` against a declared `1.2.0` was measured passing.

Reported per key rather than as one "could not read the manifest": a reader
fixing a deleted pin must not also be told the compliance level is missing when
it is sitting right there.

Two things landed alongside, both from re-reading the accessors:

- the bare-string dependency spelling (`regorus = "0.11"`) is legal TOML and was
  being read as an absent pin. Both spellings are handled now, for the reason
  `msrv-pin-agreement` already states for its own two.
- `no-rego-metadata`, CLOUD-876's second gate: a `forbid` row over
  `policy/**/*.rego`. regorus implements no `rego.metadata.*` builtin -- no
  lexer token, no parser arm -- so such a rule type checks under `opa` and
  behaves differently under the engine that ships. That is the same skew the
  compliance row exists to prevent, arriving by a route a version pin cannot
  see. A row rather than a Regal rule because the predicate is a literal.

Shown able to fail: eight new test_ rules -- a manifest with no values is four
findings rather than silence, each of the four keys deleted individually, a
single-component version, a non-string version, and the bare-string spelling
read rather than reported absent. 17/17 under `opa test`, 58/58 under
`batten policy test`.

`batten-glob-check` refused this commit until `hk.pkl`'s `batten-check` step
covered `policy/**/*.rego`: the `forbid` row makes the modules an input, and a
step whose glob does not cover its own inputs stops running for exactly the
commits it is meant to judge (CLOUD-224). Same coupling `mise-tasks/**` already
carries, and the gate catching it is that coupling working.

Reject produces when the configured scope is mediated_call.

Line 2511 checks whether the kind supports the tree scope. It does not check self.scope. RuleKind::Policy supports both scopes, so a mediated-call policy rule passes validation with produces.

The tree runner then marks that rule as skipped. requested_sinks excludes skipped rules. The declared record is never written.

Keep the containing policy rule when aggregating sink findings.

At Line 3362, aggregation selects findings where Finding::rule == rule.id. policy_rule sets Finding::rule to the policy predicate id, not the containing rule id. A tree-scoped policy rule with produces therefore always requests count = 0 and an empty digest, even when its policy reports violations.

Preserve the containing rule id separately for sink aggregation. Keep the predicate id for reporting and waiver matching.

The `prettier` pass is part of generation, not a hand-edit: `hk` formats every
tracked markdown file, so a generator whose output it would rewrite produces a
file the tree cannot hold. Column alignment is the whole of what it changes.

The dependency is not in `mise.toml` for the same reason the script is not a
gate: nothing on the landing path runs it.

The documented run path uses a bare pip install outside mise.

Lines 32-33 tell the reader to build a .venv and run pip install tree_sitter tree_sitter_bash. Lines 40-41 state the dependency stays out of mise.toml on purpose. The repository guideline requires mise for every tool acquisition.

Register the Python dependency as a mise tool or a mise task, then document mise exec (or mise run) as the run path. Keeping the script out of the landing path does not require the install to bypass mise.

As per coding guidelines: "Use mise for everything; never a bare cargo/export/one-off install."

4562-4576: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

The conservation obligation is skipped whenever the aggregate count does not fall.

Line 4562 returns before the retires_with block. unconserved_cases therefore runs only when direction.violated(base_count, working_count) is true.

Rule::conserves's own doc at Line 1742 states the obligation per file: "Every named case in a file whose count fell must be claimed". The aggregate gate narrows that to "and the aggregate also fell".

A change that deletes one suite and adds cases elsewhere under the same glob keeps the aggregate level or rising. Every deleted named case in that change is then unclaimed and unreported, which is the retirement CLOUD-908 describes.

Compare unresolved_subject at Line 4557. It runs inside the per-file loop, ahead of the direction gate, so the subject obligation is total. The conservation obligation is not.

Move the per-file conservation scan ahead of the direction gate, or state in the doc that conservation is checked only on an aggregate decrease.

Reject produces on Judge rows.

A Judge row is tree-scoped, so it passes this validation. run_rule then skips it because its effective severity is allow. requested_sinks excludes skipped rules. The declared sink never writes.

Reject produces when self.kind == RuleKind::Judge, unless judge execution is added to the sink-request path.

Aggregate sink requests by the containing rule.

requested_sinks filters on finding.rule == rule.id. However, policy_rule sets Finding.rule to the predicate id at Line 4466. A tree-scoped policy row with produces therefore writes a zero-count digest even when its predicates deny.

Store the producing row id separately from the reported predicate id. Keep the predicate id for waivers and reporting. Use the producing row id when building sink requests.

Do not convert failed Git reads into valid absent facts.

Each .ok() converts a Git command failure into None. tree_document then emits that value as null. A policy can therefore treat unavailable Git data as a valid absence and pass without having observed the required fact.

Carry acquisition failure separately from a valid fact value. Mark dependent policy rows as not evaluated when a declared Git read fails. Preserve HeadFact { commit: None } as the valid empty-repository result.

Classify produces in the per-kind column census.

produces is absent from Rule::columns, so RuleKind::permits cannot reject it. A tree-scoped Judge row can pass validate_sink, but run_rule marks it not evaluated and requested_sinks omits its record. The configured sink silently does nothing.

Associate policy findings with the containing rule before creating sink requests.

policy_rule stores the predicate ID in Finding::rule. This filter compares that value with the containing policy rule ID. A tree-scoped policy rule with produces therefore writes a zero-count sink record even when its module reports denials.

Keep the predicate ID for waivers. Add separate producer-rule attribution, or create policy sink requests while the containing rule is still available.

An error therefore produces empty output, and line 117 reports "nothing to prove" and exits 0. The task header declares exit 2 for could-not-look, so this path turns a failed search into a pass.

♻️ Proposed fix to separate the two cases
-declarations=$(git grep -h -E '^[[:space:]]*(//|#)[[:space:]]*replay:' -- "${declared_in[@]}" 2>/dev/null)
+declarations=$(git grep -h -E '^[[:space:]]*(//|#)[[:space:]]*replay:' -- "${declared_in[@]}")
+grep_status=$?
+((grep_status <= 1)) ||
+	fail_input "could not search ${declared_in[*]} for replay declarations; an unsearchable tree is not the same as a tree that declares nothing"

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

A deleted suite is selected and handed to bats as a missing path.

git diff --name-only at line 65 reports deleted paths. When a retirement deletes tests/foo.bats, line 101 selects that path, and the consumer passes it to bats, which fails on a file that does not exist. This PR stack retires suites, so the condition is reachable.

Drop the path when the suite file is gone. A deleted suite has nothing to run, so this does not narrow real coverage.

🐛 Proposed fix

+		# handing bats a path that no longer exists fails the whole run.
+		[[ -f "$path" ]] || return 0

Reject produces on unsupported rule shapes.

This schema permits produces on every Rule. Unsupported judge and mediated_call declarations then validate even though runtime does not persist their sink requests. A configured baseline or marker can silently never exist.

Add schema conditionals that reject produces for unsupported kind and scope combinations. Keep those conditionals generated from the same validation rules that decide whether a sink request is valid.

1135-1141: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Filter deleted suite paths before invoking Bats.

The selected suite list is passed directly to the parallel Bats command. The selector can return a suite path deleted by the diff, so Bats receives a nonexistent file and the gate can fail before completing the valid suites. Remove nonexistent paths or widen to all existing suites before constructing the command.

1096-1100: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Handle selector failure before applying the empty-output fallback.

If suite-select.sh emits partial paths and exits nonzero, the command substitution retains those paths. The empty-output check then skips the all-suite fallback, so test:bats can run only a partial suite set after selector failure. Capture the selector status, clear suites on failure, and then apply the fallback.

Cargo metadata weak optional dependency dep?/feature inactive optional dependency omitted from resolve nodes

💡 Result:

In Cargo, the syntax dep?/feature represents a weak dependency feature [1][2]. This feature allows you to enable a specific feature on an optional dependency only if that dependency is already activated by another part of your project (or by an external consumer) [1][3]. Unlike the standard dep/feature syntax, which forces the optional dependency to be enabled, dep?/feature does not trigger the inclusion of the dependency on its own [1][4]. Regarding cargo metadata, the resolve.nodes field in the command's JSON output represents the active dependency graph for the current configuration [5]. Inactive optional dependencies—those that are not enabled through features—are excluded from this resolve graph [5][6]. Consequently, if a dep?/feature dependency is not activated, it is considered inactive and is omitted from the resolve.nodes list [5][7]. It is important to note that even when a dep?/feature dependency remains inactive and is omitted from the final resolve graph, Cargo's resolver may still require the dependency to be available in the registry during the initial dependency resolution phase [8]. This is because the resolver, when generating the dependency graph, must account for all potential feature combinations [9], which can sometimes lead to cases where Cargo requires the package to be resolvable even if it is ultimately not enabled [8].

site:doc.rust-lang.org/cargo cargo metadata resolve.nodes optional dependencies inactive optional dependency

💡 Result:

In the output of the cargo metadata command, the resolve.nodes field represents the resolved dependency graph for the workspace [1][2]. A key characteristic of this graph is that it only includes dependencies that are active based on the currently enabled features [1][2]. If an optional dependency is not enabled by the selected features, it is considered inactive and is omitted from the resolve.nodes list [1][2]. Because cargo metadata reflects the state of the dependency graph for a specific configuration—determined by the features enabled for the current package—inactive optional dependencies do not appear as nodes or dependencies within the resolve object [1][2]. In contrast, when Cargo performs dependency resolution to generate a Cargo.lock file, it essentially treats the graph as if all features were enabled to ensure all potential dependencies are accounted for [3]. However, the cargo metadata command specifically reports the resolved graph for the current configuration, meaning it will not list dependencies that have been pruned due to their associated features being disabled [1][2].

Cargo metadata documentation resolve.nodes optional dependencies package list resolver considered inactive optional dependency

💡 Result:

In Cargo, the resolve.nodes field in the cargo metadata output represents the fully resolved dependency graph for the project or workspace [1][2]. A key behavioral detail is that inactivated optional dependencies are explicitly omitted from this resolve list [1][3]. When an optional dependency is not enabled by any selected feature (either implicitly or explicitly), it is considered inactive and does not appear as a node or a dependency edge in the resolve section of the metadata output [1][4]. Key considerations regarding this behavior: 1. Feature Resolution: Cargo's resolver generally operates at the workspace level, meaning it considers the union of all features enabled across the workspace [5][6]. Consequently, if any part of your workspace or active configuration enables an optional dependency, it will be treated as active, resolved, and included in the output [5][4]. 2. Cargo Metadata Limitations: Because the resolve graph is generated based on the active features for the current build configuration, tools relying on cargo metadata must be aware that the output reflects the specific set of features enabled during that run [1][4]. If an optional dependency is missing from the nodes list, it confirms the resolver has determined that the dependency is not required given the currently active features [1]. 3. Implicit Features: Optional dependencies define implicit features [5]. While newer Cargo versions (using the dep: syntax) have made features more explicit, the resolver's fundamental logic remains that if a feature (or implicit feature) is not enabled, the dependency is skipped during resolution [5][7]. In summary, if you do not see an optional dependency in the resolve.nodes list, it is because Cargo has determined it is not active based on the current feature set and workspace configuration [1][4].

Worked the outstanding CodeRabbit threads. Ten defects fixed, each verified before the fix and each shown able to fail; three where my answer differs from the suggestion, below, because a future reader applying the suggestion as written would get less than it promises.

The per-file count repair is not enough (threads on rules.rs / ratchet.rs). The suggestion was to run the conservation check "for every path where now < was" before the aggregate return. That closes delete-one-add-one across files and still admits the commonest form of the same evasion: renaming a case leaves the per-file count level too. The count was only ever a proxy — unconserved_cases already compares the base's case names against the head's — so the pass now asks every file the base carried and counts nothing. a_renamed_case_owes_an_arm_even_though_no_count_moved goes red with any count guard restored, including the suggested one. The separate thread asking to "compare base and working case sets independently of the aggregate count" is the reading that survives, and is what landed.

The weak-optional.json edge stays (thread on that fixture). The suggestion is that nativebits?/thing does not activate nativebits, so real cargo metadata would omit it from resolve.nodes. The neighbouring dormant-optional.json — derived from a real reading CLOUD-718 records as measured on 2026-08-20 by adding gix — keeps exactly that edge for an unactivated optional dependency, so cargo does emit it in this shape. Removing the edge would also make the arm inert: edges() walks node.deps, so with no edge there is nothing for the ?-filter to be wrong about, and weak-dep-activates would survive again. If the fixture is unrealistic then so is the one it was derived from, and that is a finding about dormant-optional.json rather than a fix to apply here.

tree_sitter stays out of mise.toml (thread on bench/gates/classify.py). The prettier half was a real pin bypass and is fixed — prettier is npm:prettier here, so a bare call formats with whatever is on PATH. The two tree-sitter packages are not the same case: mise's backends install executables, and these are import-only Python libraries with no CLI, so there is nothing for it to put on PATH; python is not a [tools] entry either, so adding one downloads a toolchain into every clone for a script nothing on the landing path runs. The script now states that constraint instead of asserting the weaker "nothing on the landing path runs it". If CLOUD-914 makes command-position scanning a standing gate, its inputs become landing-path inputs and get pinned like anything else.

Two of the threads found things worth naming separately, because they were defects in the review-fixing itself rather than in the original work:

  • Four #MUTANT rows still carried 5 and 7 fields after an earlier repair left the old tail in place, and mutant never checked the field count. That is the root the other evasions grow from — an extra | truncates the sed script and joins its tail to the filter, giving an ERE with an empty leading branch that selects the whole suite, so both halves read as coverage. A row is refused now unless it has exactly three fields, counted before the split.
  • head_fact promised in its own doc that it raises outside a repository, and did not. It returned detached: false — invented, not read — which git_facts then projected as a real fact. Same for remote_fact's empty remote map. The first version of the new test passed for the wrong reason because target/tmp/ is inside this repository and discovery walked up to the real checkout; scratch_outside_tree is what the harness carries for that.

The compliance gate shipped a vacuous pass, in the module whose own header cites
CLOUD-845 for that exact class. Found by CodeRabbit on #660, reproduced before
fixing and re-run after.

`input.tree.missing` catches a manifest that fails to PARSE. It says nothing
about one that parses cleanly and simply lacks the key -- and in Rego an
undefined reference makes its whole rule body undefined, so every comparison
produced no result. Measured with `opa eval` over a manifest carrying none of
the four required keys:

    before: []          (green, over a manifest it never read)
    after:  4           (one finding per unreadable key)

Delete the `opa` pin alone and the gate reported agreement. The bash draft this
replaced got this right by accident, because a shell variable that comes back
empty is visible where an undefined Rego reference is not -- which is the part
worth keeping: three-valued discipline has to be written per ACCESSOR, not once
per file.

Also closes the same hole one level in. `version_line` (renamed from `line`, and
now explicitly `is_string`-guarded) is undefined for a non-string and for a
single-component string, and that undefined propagated into the comparisons as
silence: `"1"` against a declared `1.2.0` was measured passing.

Reported per key rather than as one "could not read the manifest": a reader
fixing a deleted pin must not also be told the compliance level is missing when
it is sitting right there.

Two things landed alongside, both from re-reading the accessors:

- the bare-string dependency spelling (`regorus = "0.11"`) is legal TOML and was
  being read as an absent pin. Both spellings are handled now, for the reason
  `msrv-pin-agreement` already states for its own two.
- `no-rego-metadata`, CLOUD-876's second gate: a `forbid` row over
  `policy/**/*.rego`. regorus implements no `rego.metadata.*` builtin -- no
  lexer token, no parser arm -- so such a rule type checks under `opa` and
  behaves differently under the engine that ships. That is the same skew the
  compliance row exists to prevent, arriving by a route a version pin cannot
  see. A row rather than a Regal rule because the predicate is a literal.

Shown able to fail: eight new test_ rules -- a manifest with no values is four
findings rather than silence, each of the four keys deleted individually, a
single-component version, a non-string version, and the bare-string spelling
read rather than reported absent. 17/17 under `opa test`, 58/58 under
`batten policy test`.

`batten-glob-check` refused this commit until `hk.pkl`'s `batten-check` step
covered `policy/**/*.rego`: the `forbid` row makes the modules an input, and a
step whose glob does not cover its own inputs stops running for exactly the
commits it is meant to judge (CLOUD-224). Same coupling `mise-tasks/**` already
carries, and the gate catching it is that coupling working.

…missing

Seven more defects CodeRabbit raised on #660, each verified before it was
fixed and each carrying the arm that shows it able to fail.

`derive_one` COMPILED THE BARE GLOB, so a `derives` row could read a path
its own `exclude_paths` names and publish that value to every reader.
`run_rule` has narrowed with a `PathSet` since CLOUD-883 and this did not:
an exclusion that holds for a rule's findings and leaks through its
derivation reads as covered. The new fixture puts the excluded document
FIRST in sort order, which is what makes the leak observable at all --
the derivation takes the first match in the walk's order.

`replay` REASSIGNED ITS EXIT TRAP PER SUITE, each replacement naming only
the current worktree, so with two or more `replay:` rows every earlier
worktree's administrative entry under `.git/worktrees` survived and
accumulated across runs. One trap over a list every iteration appends to.

`replay` ALSO CONFLATED THE EXTRACTOR'S 1 AND 3. Its docstring answers
three codes -- a remedy present, a row naming none, and could-not-look --
and testing only for non-zero reported an unreadable config or a wrong
`module` path as a lost remedy, counting it toward the fidelity verdict.
The pointer path already kept that distinction.

`suite-select` WAS ASYMMETRIC ABOUT UNTRACKED SUITES: the changed-set path
includes them deliberately, so a wide run that could not see one skipped a
newly opened suite silently -- the too-narrow direction, which has no
symptom. It also handed bats paths that no longer exist, because
`git diff --name-only` reports deletions and `--cached` lists index
entries; this campaign retires suites, so both were reachable. Every path
emitted is now one bats can open.

`test:bats` READ THE SELECTOR'S OUTPUT WITHOUT ITS STATUS. The body runs
under `/bin/sh` with no `set -e`, so a selector that died partway left
partial output, the emptiness check passed, and the fallback never fired.

`classify.py` PICKED THE FIRST NON-FLAG WORD as git's subcommand, so
`git -C "$root" rev-parse` resolved to `"$root"` and then to no variant at

CLOUD-851's keyed baseline is the only sink kind that makes one run's decision
depend on another's, so it is the only one where "the record was written" and
"the record changed a verdict" are different claims. One run produces the
baseline; the next reads it back through `input.tree.produced` and goes quiet.

Shown able to fail (CLOUD-418), and this is the arm that makes the first mean
something: identical config, identical record on disk, a module that does not
consult it — and the row fires on both runs. Without it the positive arm proves
only that a second run is quieter than a first, which a great many bugs also
produce.

Two fixture facts cost a round each and are worth recording rather than
absorbing. A policy row's module declares the ids it raises with a
`rules contains` set in the MODULE, not a column on the row — the engine
refuses an id the module did not declare, which is the same anti-vacuity
posture as everything else here. And `Fixture::new` wipes, so calling
`scratch()` again to compute a path inside an assertion deletes the fixture the
assertion is about.

… collide

Two defects in `3395323`, found in review, and the second is the one a green
suite could not have caught.

THE COLLISION. `resolve` answered the DESTINATION — the rule id for a
rule-keyed sink, the branch for a branch-keyed one — and used it as the whole
filename. So two branch-keyed rules of one kind resolved to a single path:
`perform` groups `Baseline`/`Marker` into a map by destination, and the sorted
order decided which record reached disk while the other was lost with no error.
The read side lost the same information the other way, keying its map on that
string alone and dropping the `Production` dimension `declared_keys` had
carried, so a journal and a baseline sharing a branch collapsed into one entry
and a module could read the wrong kind's record.

`produces` is an `Option`, so a rule has at most one sink and the rule id is
already a unique destination. It is a path segment now —
`<kind>/<rule>/<discriminator>` — which makes the collision INEXPRESSIBLE rather
than refused: rule ids are unique in the config, so there is no load-time guard
to remember and nothing for a future key column to re-open. What is left of the
`key` column is the narrower question it was always asking: does the rule keep
one record, or one per branch? The store keys on the rule id, which is what a
module wants to ask anyway, so `input.tree.produced["<rule id>"]` is unchanged.

THE REGRESSION, and it is why `verify` refused the branch: `check` p50
4.76ms -> 10.01ms, 2.103x, against a 1.30 threshold and a 1.102 measured noise
floor. Locating the git dir and reading HEAD ran on EVERY run, including runs
whose rules declare no sink at all — a question nobody had asked, paid by
everybody. `any_declared` guards the store entirely and `any_branch_keyed`
guards the branch read, which is the economy `receipt::verdicts` already states
one channel over: a head-keyed caller must not pay two git invocations for a
question it never asks.

The suite is the third finding. All eleven cases declared a SINGLE rule with a
sink, so a collision — a property of a rule SET — sat outside every assertion
while the acceptance clause read as satisfied. Two cases close that: two
branch-keyed rules of one kind whose records must both exist and differ, and a
rule set declaring no sink that must not even create the store.

Refs: CLOUD-851
…ctive

Three findings from review, all on the sink this bundle just added, and the
middle one is the interesting one.

A DECLARED PREDICATE WITH NO CALL SITE. `Production::reads_back` said which
kinds a later run reads back and **nothing consulted it**, so `store` loaded
journals into `input.tree.produced` beside the baselines and a module could
decide on a digest from the kind this module's own doc calls "an audit trail
nothing reads back as a decision input". The statement and the behaviour
disagreed and the statement was the one without a mechanism — non-negotiable
rule 2's failure, inside the row that adds the axis. `store` filters on it now,
which is what turns it from prose into the gate.

Fixing that corrected the predicate too. A marker READS BACK: its content is
empty, but its existence is the whole fact, and "have I already said this" is
answered by the record being there. Marking it `false` would have deleted the
idempotence kind's only signal while looking like a tightening.

THE ESCAPE WAS NOT INJECTIVE. `replace('/', "%2F")` sends both `a/b` and the
literal `a%2Fb` to one component, so two rules with those ids shared a
destination and a baseline write replaced the other's record — the same silent
loss the rule segment was added to remove, reached from the other end. `%`
is escaped before `/` now, percent encoding's own rule for percent encoding's
own reason.

THE SCOPE CHECK ASKED THE WRONG QUESTION. `validate_sink` tested whether the
KIND supports the tree scope, and `RuleKind::Policy` supports both — so a
`scope = "mediated_call"` policy row carrying `produces` validated, was skipped
by the tree runner as another surface's business, and never wrote its declared
record. The row's own scope is the question.

Each fix ships with the arm that fails without it: two rule ids that differ only
by an escape, a journal a policy tries and fails to read on a second run, and a
mediated-call policy row refused at load.

Also confirmed on a quiet tree: `perf-compare` now reports every measured path
within 1.30x of the merge base, closing the 2.103x `check` regression.

Refs: CLOUD-851
CLOUD-883. `Rule::glob` was one inclusive pattern, so a rule could say "these
files" and not "these files except those" — and two rules could therefore not
compose over one tree: the broad one always double-reported what the narrow one
owned. Measured on CLOUD-881, whose `forbid` row over `**` reports
`Cargo.toml:225`, a legitimate dependency pin, because deciding that needs the
TOML table the line sits in and a literal cannot ask.

`exclude_paths` is a sibling list of path globs, named for what it subtracts
rather than for what it holds: `exclude` is a regex over the matched LINE and
never sees a path, and the issue names that confusion as the argument against
the obvious spelling.

THE DECISION IS AGAINST `Selector`'s STATED INVARIANT rather than convenience,
and the tree already contained the answer the issue treats as open. `PathSet`
ships an include/exclude glob evaluator whose own doc says an exclude beats an
include, the outcome does not depend on the order the patterns were written in,
and widening is the one direction a policy engine may never drift. That is
option 3's expressiveness with option 2's safety: selection is now
`PathSet::selecting`, so the selected set is a SUBSET of the glob's by
construction. Gitignore's last-match-wins — the issue's option 3 as written — is
where the invariant gets hard to hold, because there a trailing positive pattern
re-includes and a negation can widen.

Two shapes cannot honour the column and are refused at load rather than
half-implemented. A row with no `glob` has nothing to subtract from, so it would
narrow nothing while reading as a narrowing. A `ratchet` counts its base rev
through `git::count_at_rev`, which globs on its own and cannot read this column:
the two sides would select different sets, and the direction is CLOUD-328's — a
working side narrowed below its base can never rise above it, so the gate could
not fail, which reads exactly like one passing.

Shown able to fail (CLOUD-418), including the RED half first: the broad row
reporting the manifest without an exclusion, then the composition; an exclusion
matching nothing changing nothing; and three refusals — a `!` entry (a double
negative that reads as re-inclusion, the widening direction), a glob that does
not compile, and the two shapes above.

Refs: CLOUD-883
`store` read every declared key with `if let Ok(text)`, which folded a
read failure into absence. A baseline that exists and cannot be read —
a truncated write, a non-UTF-8 body, a directory in its place — reached
the tree policy as "no earlier run produced this", so the ratchet
compared against nothing and the run exited clean. That is the
vacuous-pass class arriving through the very map whose own doc says the
two answers are different (CLOUD-845, CLOUD-251).

Only `ErrorKind::NotFound` is absence now; every other filesystem error
is the run's failure and propagates to exit 3. Not being in a checkout
stays could-not-look over the whole store and still yields an empty map,
which is a different question and is documented as one.

Shown able to fail: with the swallowing read restored, the new arm
reports `left: Some(0)` — the run decided and exited clean while the
baseline it declared had never been read. The unreadable condition is a
directory rather than a permission bit, because this sandbox runs as
root and a mode-000 file would assert its own premise.

Also assert the second run's exit status in
`a_journal_never_reaches_the_policy_input` before reading its stdout:
the absence of a string is only evidence if the run that would have
printed it reached policy evaluation.

… nothing

CLOUD-907's first deliverable, and it gates the rest of the row: the
bucket sizes the retirement campaign and an estimate cannot schedule it.
CLOUD-843 measured 82 gate-described tasks; there are 85.

Re-derived by command-position invocation over a tree-sitter-bash parse,
never a substring scan — `.claude/rules/scanning.md` row two, on
CLOUD-843's own measurement that the two passes gave 11/24/31/16 against
22/50/3/7 because two tasks carried the token in a comment.

85 tasks: tree 24, git 52, build 2, forge 7. The predicate is
`description="Gate\b` rather than `Gate:`, and the difference is exactly
one row — `signing-posture` opens "Gate (and, with --repair, the
write)", so a colon-anchored count is 84.

THE RESULT THE ROW WAS SCHEDULED AGAINST IS SMALLER THAN THE BUCKET.
Classifying each git invocation by subcommand AND flags — `rev-parse` is
65 of them and is not one question — 30 of the 52 read git only to
locate the repository or to list tracked files. The engine already
resolves both. Twenty-two tasks need a variant that does not exist, and
`location` is a variant the issue's table does not name at all while
`ancestry` and `status`, the two the table worried about for cost,
appear once and twice.

The classifier is committed for reproducibility and is deliberately not
a gate: CLOUD-310's rejection of a matcher CLI as a gate is measured and
stands, and a standing command-position gate is CLOUD-914's row.

Refs: CLOUD-907
…declaration

CLOUD-907. `Fact::ALL` had no git variant, so the largest migration
bucket had no surface: a module could not ask what HEAD is, what
`status` says, what a declared ref resolves to, or what a range holds.

FIVE VARIANTS RATHER THAN ONE, because the costs differ and that is the
whole content of the cost x surface model. A collapsed `Fact::Git` would
have to take the widest arm — an unbounded worktree walk — and price the
cheap reads at it.

EVERY ONE IS ACQUIRED ONLY WHEN A RULE DECLARES IT, through `Rule::git`,
`Rule::refs` and `Rule::ranges`. That is not an optimisation: it is what
keeps `Cost::Read` honest, and this tree has paid the other bill once —
CLOUD-851 took `check` from a p50 of 4.76ms to 10.01ms, 2.103x, by
locating the git dir and reading HEAD for a question no rule had asked.
A run declaring no git fact opens nothing.

COULD-NOT-LOOK IS NEVER AN EMPTY ANSWER, and the types are shaped so it
cannot be written as one: a ref that does not resolve is absent from the
map, a range whose endpoints do not resolve is absent rather than an
empty list, a detached HEAD has `branch: null` beside `detached: true`,
and an absent remote has `upstream: null`. Rego reads an undefined path
as "does not hold", so each collapse would ship a gate that is silently
off. Every one is asserted distinct from empty in `tests/git_facts.rs`,
each variant with a constructed negative beside its positive.

NO REACHABILITY ANSWER, and the tree's own gate is what caught it. The
first draft carried `ancestor_of_head` beside each resolved ref and
`no_ancestry_decides_merged_ness` refused it: CLOUD-36 decides
merged-ness by patch identity because a rebased landing is invisible to
ancestry. The census says exactly one gate-described task asks that
question, and `git::landing` already answers it properly. Dropped.

TWO SURFACE PREDICATES CORRECTED, both of which read "surface equals
Check" where they meant "names a tree key". They agreed while every
tree-emitted fact happened to be `Surface::Check`; `policy::tree_keys`
refused `input.tree["git-head"]` as a key the engine never emits in the
same breath as the engine emitting it. Both now derive from `tree_key`,
and a new assertion holds the other direction: a fact may not name a
tree key on a surface it cannot be resolved on.

All five sit on `Surface::Check` although three cost one ref read. A
class that admits the hook while the boundary never fills it is a schema
key `opa check -s` types green over a path undefined forever — CLOUD-845
through the gate built to prevent it. The census found no mediated-call
consumer: all 22 gate tasks owing a git fact are tree programs. The
reclassification arrives with the narrowing that makes it honest.

Also untrack a `__pycache__` the census commit swept in, and ignore it.

Refs: CLOUD-907
`retires_with` (CLOUD-807) admits a decrease when the deleted file's declared
subject died. That conserves FILES. It asks "is the subject gone?" and never
"did the cases move?", so a migration can delete a suite and land green with
nothing asserting what replaced it — measured on the campaign's one completed
port, which dropped 22 named cases and left six with no successor anything in
the tree can name.

`conserves` is the obligation inside that admission. Every named case in a file
whose count fell must be claimed, in the head tree, by exactly one of three
arms: `carried` (the same assertion, moved), `subsumed` (a general property
covers it now), or `changed` (it diverges deliberately, and owes a reason).
An unclaimed case, an arm naming a target this tree lacks, one case claimed
twice, or a `changed` arm with no reason all refuse the deletion at `deny`.

Declared, never inferred, for the reason `retires_with` already gives about
`# subject:`: a name heuristic over case titles would be worse than nothing,
because titles are prose. The engine knows only the relationship — a deleted
named thing is claimed by exactly one arm naming something that exists — and
every token spelling it is the consumer's (non-negotiable rule 1).

The walk that finds the arms is bounded by declaration. `declared_in` is
required rather than defaulted to the rule's own glob, because a retired
suite's successors are by definition NOT under the glob the suite was: a
default would look total, select nothing, and admit everything.

Pointer-only, and which pointer is the whole of its usefulness. An unmapped
case points at the dying suite and the line the case was declared on at base —
a path the head tree no longer has, which is exactly where the reader must
look. A bad arm points at the arm's own file and line, because that is where
the fix goes. Neither carries a case body or a deleted assertion.

Shown able to fail (CLOUD-418), each observed red before it passed: an unmapped
case; an arm naming a phantom target; one case claimed by two arms; a `changed`
arm with no reason; a case name that never closes; and the positive arm, which
without the other five would be a rule that admits everything. Plus the two
compatibility properties asserted rather than assumed — a ratchet with no
`retires_with`, and a `retires_with` row with no `conserves`, both behave
byte-identically to before this column existed.

The first run of that suite is why the positive arm is not optional: it caught
an arm parser that found nothing at all, because an arm's opening delimiter is
also its closing one and the first `split_once` consumed the opener. Every
negative arm passed anyway — over a mapping that claimed nothing.

Refs: CLOUD-908
… it found

CLOUD-908's calibration, against the only retirement the campaign has finished.
`dd1d6d8` deleted `tests/contract-drift.bats` (259 lines, 22 named cases) and
its 215-line subject, replacing them with 12 `#[test]` cases and 6 unit tests.
It is a careful port. It was also unverifiable, and mapping it case for case is
what turns the ratchet from a mechanism into evidence.

All 22 are claimed now: 14 carried, 6 subsumed, 2 changed. The ledger is one
block on the primary successor, which is the shape a resuming session reads
migration progress from — a suite with no block is untouched, a block with
unmapped cases is half-done.

Read through the SAME parser the ratchet uses. A hand-rolled reader in the test
would be a second authority that could bless a mapping the gate rejects, which
is how every ledger drifts from the thing it describes. The case-name list is
committed text rather than resolved from `dd1d6d8^`, because the clone is
routinely shallow — CI's is — and a test that resolved that rev would either
hard-fail or, far worse, skip and read as coverage. The half that cannot be
transcribed, whether the head tree claims each name, is read live.

Four of the six cases the row flagged as having no identifiable successor
resolve cleanly, and all four are the good outcome: the plumbing became the
engine's rather than the script's. `unparseable input fails open` and `empty
input fails open` are subsumed by `cli.rs`'s
`no_failure_path_can_deny_a_mediated_call`, which is strictly stronger — it
holds across every harness. `a payload with no session_id still works, on a
shared key` is subsumed by `contract.rs`, which asserts `snapshot_path(None)`
lands on the shared key outright.

The other two were genuinely uncovered, and both are closed here rather than
filed, because both were reachable from fixtures this suite already had.

`it names the event it was called on, so one body serves both wirings` was
asserted nowhere: `drift` hard-coded `PostToolBatch` and `advisory_drain.rs`
pins the echo for that event alone, so the both-wirings half had no assertion at
all. The engine was already correct — which is the quietest possible form of
coverage evaporation, and exactly what a file-conserving ratchet cannot see.

`the bypass is honoured` turned out to be a documentation defect. `toolchain.md`
said `BATTEN_CONTRACT_DRIFT_BYPASS` was gone because "a mediated path takes the
engine's own hatch"; measured, it does not — `collect_batch_advice` runs before
the bypass reaches anything and the reporter never consults it. The behaviour is
right, because an advisory carries no verdict and refuses nothing, so a switch
over it would suppress the news that a contract moved at exactly the moment
somebody is working around a gate. The rule file is corrected to match the code
and a test pins it.

Also fixes a defect in the mechanism that the calibration's own shape exposed: a
PARTIAL deletion demanded an arm for every case in the base text, including the
ones still standing. A gate that cannot be satisfied gets switched off, so that
was coverage evaporation by a second route. A deletion is judged on what it
dropped now, and both directions are asserted on the FINDINGS rather than the
exit code — a partial deletion leaves the subject alive, so `retires_with`
refuses it either way and the code discriminates nothing. The first version of
that test asserted the code and passed for the wrong reason.

`bats-tests-not-deleted` carries the column live, so the next deletion in this
repository owes its mapping.

Refs: CLOUD-908
…em as one

`unconserved_cases` reached eight parameters when a partial deletion needed the
head file's surviving cases, and `-D warnings` refuses that at seven. The
alternative was an `#[allow]`, which would have kept a signature nobody can read
at a call site.

They are not eight ideas. The vocabulary, the head tree's claims and the head
tree's paths travel together and mean one thing — the mapping — so they are one
struct now.

Worth recording why the strict tier caught this and an earlier `lint:clippy` did
not: that run predated the parameter, so it was green over code that no longer
existed. A local green is a fact about what was compiled, not about what is in
the tree.

Refs: CLOUD-908
… diff cannot move

Two rows, and they land together because one artifact ties them:
`bench/suites/RESULTS.md` records a cost per suite, `suite-bench-check` refuses
BOTH a tracked suite with no cost and a recorded cost with no tracked suite, and
each row adds a suite. Splitting them would mean two full 300s runs of the shell
suite to keep that corpus consistent at each step, for a cosmetic boundary.

--- CLOUD-909: `mise run replay` ---------------------------------------------

`batten policy test` gives a migrated module somewhere to put its tests. It
cannot say the module answers the way the bash did — only that the module agrees
with itself, and CLOUD-845 measured the sharp end of that: a module copied from
`policy.rs`'s own doc passed its suite green and gated nothing. Fidelity is a doc
comment today; this is that claim as a command, because the next twenty gates
land in one PR and will not get twenty careful humans.

THE OBVIOUS HARNESS IS WRONG HERE, and the task is built around why. "Run both,
assert the same exit code" demands the migration preserve the very contract it
exists to fix: the shell tasks spell 1 = violation and batten's is the inverse,
so a carried-over `assert_equal $status 1` asserts "unreadable input" while
meaning "violation" — and it passes. So the exit code goes through a DECLARED
translation, and a translation spelled as an identity is refused before a single
fixture is built. `1=1` is the naive carry-over written down; `0=0` is not,
because silence means silence in both contracts.

The fixture comes from the thing being deleted, which is what makes this a replay
rather than a re-implementation. A worktree at the base rev carries both the
dying program and the dying suite; the suite runs with a shim standing where the
program stands, and the shim copies the fixture aside, runs the real base-rev
program, and records its answer. `$BATS_TEST_DESCRIPTION` is exported into a
case's environment, so every capture knows which case produced it — which is what
lets this consume CLOUD-908's `carried` arm rather than a second list. Only
carried cases are replayed; a divergence on a case not marked `changed` is the
failure this reports.

Two things were settled by measurement rather than assumed, and both changed the
design. WHAT "IDENTICAL POINTER SET, BYTE FOR BYTE" MEANS: it is the pointers,
never the two stdouts — the old gate writes `path:line <prose>` and the engine
writes its own shape, so a `cmp` over raw output compares two rendering
conventions and fails on every faithful migration. What both sides share is
house-style §6, a first field that is `path:line` or `path`. AND WHERE THE REMEDY
LIVES: `batten check` renders exactly `path:line rule` for a tree-scoped row and
no remedy at all, because rule 4 IS its output contract, so grepping the output
for remedy prose would report every faithful migration of a tree gate as having
lost one. CLOUD-437's clause is read from the declaration — a row's columns, and
for a policy row the module's `msg`.

Off the landing path, the way `mutant` is. On this tree it reports "nothing to
prove", which is honest: the one completed retirement deleted its suite long ago,
and the row's §1 says this evidence can only be produced inside the PR that
deletes.

--- CLOUD-886: `mise-tasks/suite-select.sh` ----------------------------------

The `test:bats` step is selected by `glob = List("mise-tasks/**", ...)`, so any
byte under there ran every suite. Measured: correcting one sentence in `land`'s
lap-cap message bought a full matrix.

Selection is a DENY-LIST, and the asymmetry decides the whole design. A selection
that is too wide costs money and shows up in the bill; one that is too narrow has
no symptom at all — the suites simply do not run, the count agrees with whatever
was selected, and a regression lands green. So a shared input, a path outside
`mise-tasks/`+`tests/*.bats`, a program no `# subject:` header claims, or an
unresolvable base each run everything, and each says which on stderr as a
pointer. Subject-intersection alone would select the 7 suites naming `mise.toml`
and skip `tests/land.bats`, which is strictly worse than running all of them.

MEASURED SAVING, against the corpus rather than asserted: a change to
`mise-tasks/land` selects `tests/land.bats` alone — 80.4s of a 936.0s serial
total, 8.6%.

The anti-vacuity assertion moves with the selection, and the two halves are one
assertion: `expected` is counted over the SAME variable handed to bats, because
`ran == expected` exists to catch "a suite that got faster by running fewer
tests" (CLOUD-386) and that is exactly what selection does on purpose. Its
spelling changed with it, and that is a fix: it was `git grep -c` over the index,
which counts TRACKED files only, so a suite added but not yet committed ran
without being counted and failed the assertion by its own case count — measured
at `2704 of 2696`. `awk` over the selected working-tree files counts both, and is
taken before bats runs.

`tests/test-bats-parallel.bats` gains the two rows that keep the wiring honest: a
selector that is consulted and whose list is the one counted, and an empty answer
that widens rather than narrowing.

--- one gotcha, recorded where it bites ------------------------------------

Both fixture suites assemble the case keyword rather than writing it at column
zero. bats rewrites every line of its OWN source that starts with the keyword,
heredoc included, so a literal arrives on disk preprocessed — and `test:bats`
counts that keyword to compute the total it judges a run against. Three literals
inflated it by three, and the failure presents as a bug in the code under test
rather than in the fixture feeding it.

Refs: CLOUD-909, CLOUD-886
…chaeologise

CLOUD-773 measured the defect: 57 of 126 `mise-tasks` compose over a sibling's
exit code — a three-state channel — so every consumer re-derives the producer's
structure. The landing loop is its densest concentration, and each thing it
learns about landability it then discards, leaving only a status behind.

`Fact::Landing` is the representation that was missing, and it is the one
CLOUD-907 deliberately left open rather than a new idea. That row's `GIT_REF`
header says so outright: its first version carried reachability beside the sha,
`no_ancestry_decides_merged_ness` refused it because CLOUD-36 decides merged-ness
by PATCH IDENTITY — a rebased landing is invisible to ancestry — and it closes
with "the landing question has an answer already, `git::landing`, and CLOUD-880 is
the row that makes it a fact family". This is that row.

Declared, not built: `git::landing` has computed this since CLOUD-36. What it
lacked was a way for a rule to ask. `landing_facts` narrows the full `Landing` to
the three fields a predicate needs — verdict, landed, and the unlanded shas —
because the full struct carries per-commit patch identities and the evidence
behind each, which is what a human diagnosing a landing wants and far more than a
gate does. Putting all of it on the policy input would make every landing rule
depend on a shape built for a different reader.

ABSENT RATHER THAN A NEGATIVE, and in this family that is the whole design rather
than a convention followed for consistency. A target that does not resolve, an
empty repository and an unrelated history all leave the target out of the map. The
alternative is `landed: false`, which a gate reads as *this work is outstanding*
with full confidence — a refusal reached on ignorance, and of the two directions
the only one that acts. `refs` and `ranges` already follow this rule; here it is
the one that would do damage.

Declaration bounds the cost, which is what makes `Cost::Read` honest: one scan per
named target, never a sweep of the trunk. `Surface::Check` and never `Hook` — not
because the boundary declines to resolve it, but because a patch id per head-side
commit inside a ~100ms mediated call is not a budget it fits. On the mediated path
it joins `GitStatus` and `GitRange` as unbounded-per-call, stated as an arm so a
reclassification has to come through there.

The head side is `HEAD` and deliberately not a parameter: a rule asks whether THIS
checkout's work is on a target, and a configurable head would let config ask a
question about somebody else's branch.

Projected by derivation (CLOUD-879), so declaring the fact gave it a schema entry
in the same edit and `opa check -s` now refuses a module reading a landing field
the engine never emits. All three generated schemas regenerate; none was
hand-edited.

Shown able to fail (CLOUD-418). The asymmetric arm was observed red under a
mutation that fabricates `landed: false` on a failed scan — the exact defect it
guards — and green with it restored. The others are paired rather than asserted:
absence in both directions, so it is a real reading and not a key nothing
populates; landed and one-ahead; shas only, with the fixture committing under a
subject the module then hunts for on the input, because `GitRange` is where a
subject belongs and rule 4 is decided at acquisition rather than at the report;
and a row declaring ONLY a landing target, because `git_facts` returns early when
nothing is declared and a column that early return had not learned about would
leave every landing rule reading an absent key — configured, typed, silently off.

Two things the gates caught that this commit is better for:

`schema_fragment` crossed its 100-line ceiling, so the git and landing families
are their own function now — split along the seam the model already has, the facts
that answer questions about history rather than about files, rather than by line
count.

And `landing` was briefly in the per-kind column census, where
`every_optional_rule_field_is_classified_by_every_kind` refused it for owing no
kind's `permits()` entry. It is out again: `git`, `refs` and `ranges` are all
outside that census because they are declared reads rather than per-kind
capabilities, and a column that behaves like `refs` is classified like `refs`
rather than inventing a fifth answer for one of the four.

Refs: CLOUD-880
…dcarding

Two gates refused the split `schema_fragment`, and both were right.

`no_axis_match_carries_a_wildcard_arm` refused the `_ =>` fallback in
`git_schema_fragment`. Exhaustiveness is a totality guarantee only while no arm is
a wildcard: `_ =>` compiles happily and silently classifies every fact added later,
which is the one direction the mistake is expensive in. The eleven non-family
facts are spelled out now, so a twelfth is a compile error in BOTH functions
rather than a silent default in one. Unreachable by construction either way —
`schema_fragment` delegates six variants and only those — but the point of the
rule is that "unreachable today" is not a property a wildcard preserves.

`every_fact_returns_its_stated_const` refused the census count, which is pinned so
a DROPPED variant fails too rather than quietly shrinking the model. Updated
deliberately, 16 to 17, which is what that pin is for.

Both were caught by `verify` on a committed tree rather than by CI, which is the
whole economy: local execution is free and a CI run is not.

…invisible one

CLOUD-418 built `mutant` and seeded `$MUTANT_GATES` with five names. That set
holds one property and misses its complement: a gate IN the list with no
`#MUTANT` row fails, so coverage cannot be silently zero for anything enforced —
but a gate that was NEVER LISTED is invisible, and the list and the tree drift
apart the moment somebody adds a gate.

`mutant-census` is the sensor, in the hk gate, in both directions: `uncovered`,
`names-no-subject`, `declared-and-exempt`, `exempt-unfiled`, plus an anti-vacuity
term — a tree resolving no gate is exit 2, never perfect coverage over nothing.
What counts as a gate is DERIVED from each program's own `#MISE description`
(`Gate…`, or `hook body` for the guards) plus every `policy/*.rego`, never a
hand-typed roster that would be the second authority this closes. The census is
in the gate and `mutant` is not: existence is a property of the commit and costs
one pass over the description lines, where discrimination is a property of the
suites and costs two filtered bats runs a row.

Measured: 100 gates, 58 of them outside the set, and SIX of those already
carried `#MUTANT` rows no run had ever applied. Enforcing them found four row
bugs, each of which had read as coverage:

* `issue-read-guard/any-receipt-authorises` — the sed contained `||`, the row's
  own field separator, so it had never been appliable.
* `board-write-record/overlap-frozen-at-write-time` — the pattern matched its own
  declaration line, so every run reported a changed file while the gate's
  behaviour was untouched. `mutant` now refuses that as `self-mutating-row`; the
  row's remedy is a character class, which matches the call and not the
  declaration.
* `ready-lint/replay-demanded-of-a-warn-gate` — a single bracket matched inside
  `[[ … ]]`, leaving `[true]`: a command that does not exist, so the conjunct
  became permanently false and NO block was demanded a replay. The row was the
  inverse of the mutation its comment described.
* `hook-matcher-check/matcher-ignores-the-route` — pointed at the committed-tree
  self-test, which cannot discriminate any change to `required`: the engine's
  PreToolUse entry carries no matcher, so `delivers` answers match-all.

And one harness defect, fixed rather than filed: `mutant`'s throwaway tree was
`git ls-files | tar` — tracked bytes and no `.git` — so a suite whose gate
resolves its root ran against whatever repository enclosed `$TMPDIR`, or none,
and `mutant` reported `case-already-red`, naming the SUITE for a defect in the
harness. The staged tree is now a repository of its own.

Three gates resisted for the reason CLOUD-480 §2 predicts and none needed a
weakened mutant: `ci-drift`, `perf-gate` and `token-bench-check` had no bats
suite at all. Each now has one, written behaviourally against shims and scratch
roots. `macos-link-check`'s named case turned out to be a source grep, which
discriminates nothing; its rows are repointed at the fixture cases, and a
`dep?/feature` fixture was added because nothing exercised the weak-reference arm
its `weak-dep-activates` row is about.

Two exemptions, both citing a filed row: the policy modules carry
`#MUTANT-EXEMPT CLOUD-931`, because `batten policy test` is wired to no task and
there is no named case a mutation could turn red. An exemption must name an issue
and give a reason — `exempt-unfiled` otherwise, which is the whole difference
from a `TODO`.

…ct, not a finding

The per-row `cp` restores the row's OWN subject; nothing restored the previous
row's, so the throwaway tree accumulated corruption and a gate that composes over
a sibling was judged against the sibling's mutant.

Measured: `board-write-record`'s `overlap-frozen-at-write-time` is caught when its
gate is swept alone and SURVIVES in a full sweep, because `board-diff-overlap`'s
last row leaves that sibling pinned in named-only mode — the exact state the
mutation exists to distinguish. Swept as a trio it is 12 of 12 caught.

A survivor that changes with the set is worse than a missed one: it reports a
finding about the SUITE whose truth is a function of sweep order, which is the
"reads as coverage" defect one level further out than the one CLOUD-418 measured.

Refs: CLOUD-480
`names-no-case` refuses a filter matching nothing, on the grounds that a
vacuous filter reads as coverage. A filter matching EVERYTHING was not
refused, and it is the same vacuity from the other side: the row stops
naming a case, so redness under mutation can come from anywhere in the
suite while the declaration reads as proof about one.

Measured on this task's own census sibling. `mutant-census`'s row carried a
`|` inside its sed script, so `IFS='|' read` split it into the wrong fields
and the filter it ended up with had an empty leading alternation branch —
which selects everything. All 14 cases ran, the row reported caught, and
the case it names was never the reason. The row is rewritten with a
pattern carrying no `|`, and the term is what stops the next one.

The total counts BOTH case spellings, which is the part that cost a
measurement: bats preprocesses a suite it runs, rewriting each `@test`
line into a `bats_test_function` call, and a suite can be read here after
that has happened. Counting only `@test` returned 0 over such a file,
which made `total` zero and switched the new term off silently — the shape
of false green it exists to catch.

Also declares CLOUD-908's predicate change. Adding the `conserves` column
moved `bats-tests-not-deleted`'s predicate, and `RulePredicateChanged` is
reported as a change and never as a ranking, so a tightening declares
itself through the same clause a loosening would. The direction is stated
on the issue: the column only ever adds an obligation.

…missing

Seven more defects CodeRabbit raised on #660, each verified before it was
fixed and each carrying the arm that shows it able to fail.

`derive_one` COMPILED THE BARE GLOB, so a `derives` row could read a path
its own `exclude_paths` names and publish that value to every reader.
`run_rule` has narrowed with a `PathSet` since CLOUD-883 and this did not:
an exclusion that holds for a rule's findings and leaks through its
derivation reads as covered. The new fixture puts the excluded document
FIRST in sort order, which is what makes the leak observable at all --
the derivation takes the first match in the walk's order.

`replay` REASSIGNED ITS EXIT TRAP PER SUITE, each replacement naming only
the current worktree, so with two or more `replay:` rows every earlier
worktree's administrative entry under `.git/worktrees` survived and
accumulated across runs. One trap over a list every iteration appends to.

`replay` ALSO CONFLATED THE EXTRACTOR'S 1 AND 3. Its docstring answers
three codes -- a remedy present, a row naming none, and could-not-look --
and testing only for non-zero reported an unreadable config or a wrong
`module` path as a lost remedy, counting it toward the fidelity verdict.
The pointer path already kept that distinction.

`suite-select` WAS ASYMMETRIC ABOUT UNTRACKED SUITES: the changed-set path
includes them deliberately, so a wide run that could not see one skipped a
newly opened suite silently -- the too-narrow direction, which has no
symptom. It also handed bats paths that no longer exist, because
`git diff --name-only` reports deletions and `--cached` lists index
entries; this campaign retires suites, so both were reachable. Every path
emitted is now one bats can open.

`test:bats` READ THE SELECTOR'S OUTPUT WITHOUT ITS STATUS. The body runs
under `/bin/sh` with no `set -e`, so a selector that died partway left
partial output, the emptiness check passed, and the fallback never fired.

`classify.py` PICKED THE FIRST NON-FLAG WORD as git's subcommand, so
`git -C "$root" rev-parse` resolved to `"$root"` and then to no variant at
all -- understating the git surface in the census the retirement campaign
is scheduled against. Global options that take a separate value word are
skipped now.

Refs: CLOUD-480
`query_optional` maps every non-zero git exit to `None`, and two acquisitions
read that as an answer. Outside a repository `head_fact` returned
`Ok(HeadFact { commit: None, branch: None, detached: false })` -- the
`false` invented rather than read -- and `remote_fact` returned an empty
remote map. `git_facts` converts only `Err` to `None`, so both fabrications
reached policy input as real facts, and a module asking
`not input.tree["git-head"].detached`, or reading an empty `remotes`, got a
confident answer about a repository nobody had looked at.

That is the distinction the whole family is built on: Rego reads an
undefined path as "does not hold", so an invented `false` and a genuine
absence are indistinguishable to every consumer. `head_fact`'s own doc
already promised it raises outside a repository; `repo_root` is what makes
the promise true. An unborn HEAD and a repository with no remotes stay
valid values, which is the half worth keeping.

The new arm builds its fixture with `scratch_outside_tree`, not
`Fixture::new`: `target/tmp/` is inside this repository, so discovery walks
up and finds the real checkout -- the first version of the case passed for
exactly that reason. Shown able to fail by removing the two guards.

The selector's fallback is tracked-and-untracked now in its assertion too,
which is the half of the same review point that lived in the test rather
than the task.

Also routes the bench script's `prettier` call through `mise exec`, since
prettier IS pinned here and a bare call formats with whatever is on PATH.
The two tree-sitter packages stay unpinned and now say why: mise's backends
install executables and these are import-only libraries with no CLI, so
there is nothing to put on PATH.

`issue-read-guard`'s row carried 7 fields — the same residue shape as the
four repaired earlier, where replacing a row's PATTERN left the old
replacement tail behind. Its named case had also gone stale, so it answered
`names-no-case` once the field count was fixed. Repointed at the case that
actually catches the mutation: making every age pass allows an update from
a read older than the bound, which is exactly what that case denies.

A tree-wide check now reports no malformed row in `mise-tasks/**` or
`policy/**`, and the nine gates whose rows this branch touched sweep clean
at 19 of 19.

CI went red on `A RIVAL MAY REAP A LEASE THAT BEATS WITHOUT PROGRESSING`
at 23.9s with `still held by ... after 20s`, on a run where `test:bats`
took 1078s against ~290s locally. The case is green here alone, green
under `verify`'s own wide `test:bats` on the same SHA, and green in the
mutation sweep whose `stalled-lease-unstealable` row names it -- so verify
and CI ran the same task over the same set and only the wall clock
differed.

This is not a flake to re-run. CLOUD-450 diagnosed exactly this class and
raised three sibling rows in this file to a 60s wait, with the reasoning
recorded there: `LAND_LOCK_WAIT` is a wall clock INSIDE the program under
test, and a short one grades the runner rather than the steal. This row was
left at 20 when the others were raised, and it is the most load-sensitive
of the four -- it needs TWO of the holder's beats corroborated before the
stall is visible at all.

So the budget moves for the reason its siblings' already did. The row
asserts the lease IS reaped and never how fast; the duration promise lives
in one place, the CLOUD-433 row above. 60 costs a passing run nothing,
because the steal exits the instant it wins. The `bail` idiom comes with
it, so a genuine refusal to steal is still named as one rather than read as
a slow runner.

The negative sibling keeps its short wait, which is correct there: you do
not wait long for a non-event.

Refs: CLOUD-480
`batten-check` went red in CI on two `deny` rows while passing locally:
`policy-modules-type-check` spawns `opa check -s schema/ policy/` and
`policy-lint-rule-tests` spawns `regal test .regal/rules`. Both tools are
declared in `[tools]`, neither was in ci.yml's `install_args`, and
`MISE_EXEC_AUTO_INSTALL: false` makes that list binding — so the rows did
not run slowly, they failed CLOSED at deny. That is the verify/CI
disagreement `land` refuses on, and nothing named the cause.

`ci-tools-check` could not see it. Its two directions hold the install
list against `[tools]` and hold every PR workflow to having a binding list;
neither asks whether a tool a rule NEEDS is in the list. That third
direction is here now, and it is the mechanism rule 2 requires rather than
a note in a comment.

SCOPE IS DERIVED, NOT ALLOWLISTED. Three spawned binaries came back as
findings on the first run: `cargo` arrives with rust, `gh` is pre-installed
on the runner, `bats` is a submodule. A list of exemptions would be exactly
the drifting second authority this task exists to refuse, so the question
narrows to tools mise DECLARES — if `[tools]` owns it the list must name
it, and if not, mise was never going to install it. Basename matching on
both sides, since the list holds backend-qualified keys and a spawn names a
binary; approximate only in the direction that can miss, never invent.

The policy file is an argument like the workflow and config already are.
Without that the fixture cases would have judged the committed batten.toml
against a fixture workflow — mixing one tree's spawns with another's list,
which is the one thing a suite built on fixtures must not do.

Shown able to fail: dropping the two tools from ci.yml names exactly `opa`
and `regal`; the fixture arm drops `prettier` from the only list naming it
and is refused.
