07-backup-architecture.md 6.3 gains a dated [DESIGN] paragraph on replay ->
rollback -> hold, including why no engine flag closes it: --single-transaction
makes Postgres atomic, MariaDB DDL is not transactional, so the rollback is the
fix and the flag is a belt.
Drill record for the live walk, including the TWO defects the walk found in the
fix itself (a rollback into a re-created container; an operator route that
cleared the file while the running controller kept refusing) and the ONE
red-proof that PASSED, which is reported rather than omitted.
R-379..R-382 compressed into CLOSED-ITEMS.md. OPEN-ITEMS 330683 -> 325236 bytes.
STATUS.md restates the outcome and names the next operator step.
07-backup-architecture.md: three places said no offsite action unpacks the
named-volume tars. R-107 closed in controller v0.218.0; all three corrected with
a dated [FACT], the old sentence kept in the past tense. R-102 is NOT closed and
the correction says so explicitly.
New [DESIGN] paragraph in 6.3: the restore destination is resolved by the same
rule as the capture destination, and the wrong-disk refusal applies to apps that
have a drive to get wrong. Carries the 13/40 measurement.
STATUS.md was internally contradictory - nothing waiting, and one decision
waiting, for something the same page recorded as shipped. 218 -> 102 lines; the
deciding section now says what happens if nothing is done.
R-356 compressed into CLOSED-ITEMS.md; OPEN-ITEMS 327109 -> 325236 bytes.
Drill record and 16 evidence files for the live walk on demo-hp.
Records and process only. No machine contacted.
ONE REGISTER (operator ruling). 17 roadmap rows moved into OPEN-ITEMS.md keeping their
identifiers, evidence and original filing dates - the oldest R-10, filed 2026-07-15, 38 days.
15 ideas stay in ROADMAP.md, which is their home; the gate exempts them by their own state
word. 59 already-closed rows stay as history. Sorting rule recorded in the roadmap header:
does the item assert something about the shipped product a reader could check and find false?
scripts/one_register_gate.py, wired as the 11th gate. Control run: baseline passes, a planted
open roadmap-only row is convicted by name, removing it passes with the file byte-identical,
and a planted `idea` row is correctly exempt. Its four residual holes are in its docstring.
The gate earned its keep immediately: it caught R-103, a READY finding my hand-sort mis-read as
done because my regex matched the whole row where the body contains "shipped" - the gate matches
the state cell. It also caught R-203 and R-163, recorded closed in the register and still open in
the roadmap; the roadmap copies are marked SUPERSEDED with the register's verdict.
HOUSEKEEPING. OPEN-ITEMS 672,376 -> 327,109 bytes (-51%); ROADMAP 239,306 -> 78,110 (-67%).
Closed work compressed to 17% into CLOSED-ITEMS.md and ROADMAP-HISTORY.md; every entry names the
commit whose git show returns the full original text. Rule-sentences are kept verbatim under
"Reasoning kept" rather than judged entry by entry - 25 carry one.
CONTEXT.md deliberately NOT compressed and the disagreement is argued in the report: 86% of it is
standing rulings still in force, this prompt's own 3.4 says the log is never edited, and it has no
per-ruling delimiter. Filed as R-377 - the problem is navigational, not volumetric.
The hot/bulk placement decision was NEVER recorded as a decision anywhere - established, not
assumed. Now marked [DESIGN] with a pointer honest about having no original date, given a
decision-log entry that records what was rejected, and the [DESIGN]/[FACT] legend carried from 1
of 8 architecture documents to 8 of 8. Existing statements deliberately left unmarked (R-376).
PROMPT-TEMPLATE gains N.7: compress what you closed, rehome live reasoning before it goes, state
the register's size before and after.
Ceiling R-375 -> R-378.
