Implementation specification — passive evidence first, bounded agent-assisted discovery secondAuthority and boundary
Invocation route state is a separate value resolved at the hook boundary, before struct InvocationRoutes {
harness: Harness,
current: Option<CurrentRoute>,
alternatives: BTreeMap<RouteId, RouteObservation>,
}
struct CurrentRoute { operation: Operation }
enum RouteAvailability { Available, Unavailable, Unknown }
struct RouteObservation {
availability: RouteAvailability,
evidence: RouteEvidence,
}
enum RouteEvidence {
CurrentCall,
PassiveSnapshot { completeness: SnapshotCompleteness },
AgentSourced { freshness: Freshness },
}
enum SnapshotCompleteness { Complete, Partial }
enum Freshness { CurrentInvocation, SameSessionRecent }
Evidence semanticsEvidence is merged in this order:
Passive acquisition, surveyed per harnessPassive evidence is collected on every invocation from the normalized envelope.
No named harness currently supplies a complete alternative-tool inventory in the checked payload contracts. Parsing settings is not evidence of what the running process loaded. Therefore a passive implementation alone may identify the current route but cannot issue a fallback denial for an unobserved alternative. Explicit passive snapshotsA harness or caller may provide a normalized route snapshot. Its completeness is required metadata. {
"routes": {
"completeness": "complete|partial",
"available": ["native-search", "shell-search"]
}
}The boundary validates, sorts and deduplicates the stable route tokens. A complete snapshot is the only passive path on which omission can establish Agent-assisted discoveryWhen passive evidence is insufficient, discovery reuses the existing receipt → Add a route-specific fact declaration rather than treating arbitrary result counts as a route fact: [[fact]]
name = "route.shell-search"
kind = "route-availability"
command = "consumer-owned probe command"
max_age_seconds = 300The discovery command is consumer-owned and declared. It must have a fixed structural result:
Only the row count and stable observation metadata are retained. Discovery output bytes, tool schemas, arguments, raw result payloads, timestamps, raw session identifiers and host tool names must not enter Rego input, a receipt, stdout, stderr or a refusal. An acquisition denial is permitted only when all of the following are true:
The common decoder accepting a response alias is not evidence that a harness can safely source facts from it. Each host/event result shape must be surveyed before this path is enabled. Without an opt-in discovery row or positive result-reading capability, unknown route state allows. The acquisition denial and the policy fallback denial are separate decisions. Acquisition is a typed receipt denial carrying the declared Route records, freshness and invalidationThe current sourced-fact record is fact-name-only and age-blind, so it is not sufficient for route availability. Route observations require: struct RouteRecord {
command: String,
seen_at: String,
rows: u8, // exactly 0 or 1
harness: Harness,
session_fingerprint: String,
}Records are keyed by route fact, harness and a non-secret session fingerprint. They are accepted only when the exact command, harness, session fingerprint and required A valid Rego input and decision contractRego receives a fixed normalized projection: {

"current": {"operation": "mcp"},
"alternatives": {
"native-search": {"availability": "unknown", "evidence": null},
"shell-search": {"availability": "available", "evidence": "agent-sourced"}
}
}
}
}The policy selects one preferred alternative using a deterministic rank or Rego emits one fallback denial only when:

Landing sequence
This work must coordinate with the existing agent-sourced fact path and the response-fidelity/capture work, but route facts retain only row-count observations and do not depend on retaining tool-response bytes. CLOUD-45 landed the host × capability table: what one host can and cannot do is a Nothing is wrong with the answer it gives today. What is wrong is that a host's properties now live in two places, so a seventh harness is correct only if whoever adds it remembers the second one — and the second one is a The property itself is real and must survive: a deny on Cursor carries no meaning on stderr, and on Claude Code exit Refinement — Ready (one host property, moved into the table that already holds the rest)
Acceptance
Scope expansion — runtime route detection and fallback denialsThe static The provider distinguishes Current hook payloads do not carry a complete available-tool inventory for any named harness. Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot CLI, Gemini CLI and Codex CLI can at most identify the current route from the observed event; Cursor's specialized events are still evidence only of the current route. Host settings cannot establish what the running process loaded. A distinct alternative route may therefore be treated as available only when an explicit harness- or caller-provided invocation snapshot establishes it. Project normalized route state into Rego with a fixed shape. Do not expose host tool spellings, schemas, descriptions, arguments, tool output or raw discovery payloads. The policy chooses only among semantic routes and must deterministically select exactly one result. Rego emits a fallback denial only when all three conditions hold:
Unknown inventory, a known-unavailable alternative, or the current route being the sole viable option emits no fallback denial. A preferred route missing from a platform is not itself a violation. The chosen fallback must travel through the host's declared decision channel. Extend attributed policy violations with an optional validated Added test obligations
CLOUD-739 `git.rs` slice 3: derive patch identity in-process, deleting the 26 pinned diff settings that exist only to stop the host changing the answer
Reopened 2026-08-21 — cancelled against a question CLOUD-320 had already answeredCreated 2026-08-20T00:42:08Z, refined to Ready, cancelled at 02:56:28Z without ever being pulled — 36 seconds after CLOUD-738 and 39 before CLOUD-740. Three slices, 75 seconds, none of them started. The rationale on record is that gix 0.86 has no stash API and no
So the cancellation did not resolve this row's question; it discarded the row that carried it. What went with it is the module's largest standing cost, still on
Why — this is the slice the whole row is actually about
1. Twenty-six pinned settings whose only job is to stop the host changing the answer. Every one of those lines exists because the diff is produced by a program that reads the user's configuration. In-process there is no user configuration to read, and all 26 go. 2. The identity admits it is not stable. From 3. Whitespace collisions are inherited, not chosen. The licence to change it, which CLOUD-320 already established.

The measurement was real and this row asked for it: gix 0.86 exposes no Scope, corrected. What is still owed, unchanged and still refined: The terminal deliverable is unchanged and is now closer. Why The last slice of CLOUD-320's Scope Reads: The terminal assertion is the deliverable. Care required, and this slice has the most of it

Strictness remains unchanged: unknown keys are errors; formerly-known deprecated keys are accepted during their declared window and emit a pointer-only finding.

CLOUD-760 Effect-class facts: read a delegated analyser's structured output, not just its exit bit
The mechanism CLOUD-690 is missing, and the one CLOUD-756 concluded is required. CLOUD-756 landed the principle: "Batten must not COMPUTE symbol resolution. It should CONSUME resolved facts — and an exit code is one bit, not resolved facts." This is the fact that makes it real. What is thrown away todayBatten already runs delegated analysers and already reads their output — but only two ways, both lossy:
So the limitation was never "Batten cannot read a delegated tool's output" — it is "Batten can only read it as text or as one bit." CLOUD-690 names this as a capability gap; this is its fact-model half.
Why this is the highest-value classThree of this crate's load-bearing architectural policies are hand-rolled The worked failure is on record: a Cost class: effect — and this is where §5 gets decidedComputing this fact spawns a process. That is the whole reason it is its own class:
What this issue lands
Not in scope: a rule kind that consumes it, and any per-language analyser Batten would maintain. This is the fact and its boundary. Whether the first consumer is the spawn census (CLOUD-743) or the Acceptance sketch (not yet a Ready block)
Filed from a subprocess-boundary audit whose own miscount is the worked example. RE-FOUNDED 2026-08-22 — the prior art this row did not cite
So the gap is not the capability. It is that the capability exists once, hard-wired to one scanner, and is not a fact. That is a narrower and more tractable row than the one filed, and it changes where the work goes: this is not inventing structured delegation, it is generalising an existing, tested, fail-closed instance of it. What actually is missing: nothing occupies

And facts.rs:96 for the Cost::Effect doc is wrong — it is at :106.
The substance is untouched. The command kind really does null its streams; outputs::hits really is a literal substring; run_static really does refuse a spawning kind; secrets.rs really is fail-closed on every exit-versus-parse disagreement. Every claim this row makes holds. Only the addresses were stale — three of them from the original filing two days ago, three from a correction section written this morning.
Which is exactly the decay CLOUD-756's own follow-up names: "the test NAMES are the durable key; the line numbers are a measurement taken on one commit and nothing keeps them true." That row said it about a table it had just rewritten. This row is the proof it was right, at a rate of six wrong pointers in two days across one body. An implementer should resolve every symbol name in this row against the tree and ignore every number in it, including the ones this table just corrected — they were true at 170c7c4 and nothing keeps them true either.
No gate sees this. ready-cites-check judges backticked paths containing a slash; file.rs:NNN has none, so the whole class is invisible to every gate in the repo — which is why six of them accumulated in one body without a single refusal.

…a name switch
CLOUD-372. CLOUD-45 made `Capabilities` the one authority on what a host can and
cannot do, and adding a host means filling a row. One property was left outside
it: `reason_travels_in_band` was `matches!(self, ClaudeCode | Cursor)`, a fact
about a host's decision channel expressed as a match over two names.
THE ANSWER IT GAVE WAS RIGHT AND THAT IS WHY THIS IS A REFACTOR. Cursor assigns
no meaning to stderr, so CLOUD-122's contract is unsatisfiable there through the
exit-code channel alone; Claude Code answers in-band for a different reason, that
exit 2 discards its stdout JSON, so the two channels are exclusive and it takes
the richer one. Both still answer in-band, the other four still do not, and no
deny text or exit code moves.
WHAT THE SPLIT COST IS AN ASYMMETRY, not a wrong answer. `Capabilities` carries a
totality test pinned against the dispatcher's event set: a row that omits a field
does not compile. A `matches!` is under no such check — a seventh harness that
nobody remembers to add stays compiling and answers `false` silently. Moving the
property buys the compiler as the enforcement, which is what the table was for.
Each row states its own reason rather than sharing one, because they are not the
same reason: Claude Code's is about exit 2 discarding stdout, Cursor's is about
stderr carrying no meaning, and `ExitCode`'s is that there is no document at all.
Collapsing them would delete why a future divergence is a one-value edit.
OBSERVED RED (CLOUD-418). Mutation: flip Cursor's row to `false`.
only_the_hosts_with_no_stderr_reason_get_a_deny_body
FAIL — "cursor channel disagrees with its declared posture", left true,
right false
That test iterates `Harness::ALL` and already existed; what changed is that it
now reads the declared posture through the table, so a wrong value fails instead
of reading as a channel preference. Run in isolation — nextest's fail-fast
cancels scheduling, and a case that never ran looks exactly like one that passed.
`capabilities()` crossed `too_many_lines` at 105/100, and the annotation is
`expect` rather than `allow` with the reason stated: this function is a DATA
TABLE, so its length is hosts times columns and both are the point. The remedy
the lint implies — split it — would put one host's row away from the others,
which is the two-places defect this commit removes. `expect` means it goes red if
the table ever shrinks back under the ceiling.
THE SCOPE EXPANSION IS NOW CLOUD-1036, groomed to Ready. This row's body carried
a second issue under a "Scope expansion" heading — an invocation-scoped route
provider, agent-assisted discovery, session-bound route records, a Rego route
projection and an optional attributed-violation `fix`, with its own six-step
landing sequence and no acceptance criteria of its own. It shares one sentence
with this row: the static matrix is not an inventory of what one invocation can
see. Split rather than closed over, and groomed by this session precisely because
this session is not implementing it.
`grep -c 'matches!(self, Harness::' crates/batten/src/hook.rs` is 0, which is
this row's stated acceptance.

…n is decided `landing` decided merged-ness by piping `git log -p` into `git patch-id --stable`, under twenty-six pinned settings — twenty `git config` keys, six flags and two environment variables — whose whole purpose was stopping the host's configuration from changing the answer. All twenty-six are deleted and nothing replaces them: in process there is no host configuration to read. `crate::patch` is the new authority, and the point of the move is not that it avoids a spawn. Every normalisation the old path applied was a side effect of which tool got invoked, so nobody had chosen any of them. Each is now a decision with a reason and a case: - Line numbers stay excluded, the one behaviour inherited deliberately: hunk positions are what shift under a replay, which is the case the primitive exists for. - Whitespace becomes SIGNIFICANT, diverging from git. `git patch-id` folds it, so a whitespace-only difference collides. The doc this replaces called that collision "the safe direction for a primitive whose failure class is a false not landed" — backwards for this crate's consumers, because a false LANDED is what suppresses `completion.unlanded`. A spurious not-landed is noise, a spurious landed is a lie. - Binary content is identified by blob ids, which retires the `--binary` caveat rather than restating it: a zlib body was "deterministic for a given zlib but not guaranteed across zlib builds", and an object id is stable across builds AND distinct per edit. - Renames stay undetected, now as a choice rather than as two flags that had to agree. Dependencies: `gix-diff` (already a non-optional gix dep, so `tree` is available without its monolithic `blob` feature) and `imara-diff` direct. `blob` was rejected rather than skipped: its eight non-imara deps exist to run external diff drivers, clean/smudge filters, and materialise blobs to disk. Honouring `diff.<driver>.command` would hand back exactly the host-configuration input the twenty pinned keys were there to remove. Gates, each observed red under its own named mutation, each run in isolation: - the differential gate compares the VERDICT the two implementations give over the rebase/squash/cherry-pick corpus, never the hashes — those differ by construction, and asserting they match would assert the migration did not happen. Red under a constant identity, on its negative arm: unlanded work read `Landed`. - two binary edits to one path, red when a binary side is hashed without its oid. - a whitespace-only difference, red when the edit script folds whitespace. - `PatchId::parse` is now the SOLE constructor and narrowed from `40 | 64` to exactly 64 hex, so it guards this crate's own rendering rather than a foreign tool's. `a_rename_is_a_deletion_and_an_addition` is NOT among them, and that is the honest half. It could not go red: rename detection is a pure function of the two trees, so a fixture built out of trees hands the detecting and non-detecting builds identical input and gets identical verdicts. A case that cannot fail is what CLOUD-418 calls coverage. It is renamed to what it does gate (`a_replayed_rename_is_still_landed`) and the decision moved to `patch::tests::renames_are_not_a_shape_this_identity_can_take`, whose mutation — a fourth `Kind` — fails the build with E0004 rather than an assertion. `mise run test:filter` is added because observing one case red needs one case run. `test:cargo` takes no `"$@"`, so a filter handed to it is silently dropped and the whole suite runs — and nextest fail-fast then cancels scheduling, making a case that never ran read exactly like a pass. Measured here: a `test(differential)` filter that matched nothing summarised green. It is deliberately not receipt-routed and not part of `test` or `verify`, because a subset is never the evidence a suite passed. Refs: CLOUD-739, CLOUD-36, CLOUD-320, CLOUD-418, CLOUD-738
…9 fixture repaired First instalment of slice 4. `common_dir`, `remotes`, `root_commits`, `resolve_ref`, `tracked_paths`, `current_branch`, `is_shallow`, `log_messages` and `commit_record` now read through `open()`'s isolated gix repository instead of spawning `git`. Three of them get better rather than merely equivalent: - `current_branch` returns `None` for a detached HEAD because there IS no referent name, where `--abbrev-ref` spelled it as the literal string `HEAD` and every caller had to know not to read that as a branch. - `resolve_ref` no longer needs `--end-of-options`. `name` is an argument to a resolver rather than a token on a command line, so an option-shaped value is a ref that does not resolve. Unrepresentable beats refused (CLOUD-718). - `commit_record` reads four FIELDS off the commit object, which retires `RECORD_SEPARATOR`, `record_from` and its arity refusal. Those existed because one `git show` had to carry four values through one stream and a body containing U+001E mis-split it (CLOUD-742). Removing the channel is not the same as defending it, and a defect class with no channel left has nothing for a gate to discriminate (CLOUD-418) — the same reasoning this row's own §7 used to strike its clauses over deleted functions. `trailer_lines` STAYS, because `attribution.rs` reads a pending message's trailers through it and one implementation is what keeps committed and pending records agreeing. SCOPE FINDING, recorded because the row's own Scope section is wrong about it. CLOUD-740 names three functions and asserts a terminal deliverable of `git` spawned NOWHERE in the crate. Measured on this tree: 26 spawn sites across 25 functions. Its siblings CLOUD-738 (slice 2) and CLOUD-742 are both marked Done, so no open row owns the other 22, and doing the three named ones could not reach the deliverable. This branch migrates all of them. gix's `status` feature is REFUSED, and by CLOUD-739's own argument rather than a new one: `status` -> `blob-diff` -> `gix-diff/blob`, and `attributes` -> `command`. That is the external-diff-driver, clean/smudge-filter and unmediated-worktree-FS surface the previous commit declined. `uncommitted` and `changed_paths` will be built from the index, which is already enabled, plus the vendored `ignore` walker — which also settles §7(e)'s "exactly one implementation" question in `ignore`'s favour rather than adding gix as a third answer. AND REPAIRS A CLOUD-739 DEFECT OF RECORD, which is the important half of this commit. `tree_changes` hashed changed DIRECTORY entries alongside the blobs inside them, and a tree object's id encodes all of its siblings — so `src/` carried one id on a branch that added `src/b.rs` and another on a `main` that also gained `src/other.rs`. The identity therefore depended on the base the change sat on, which is the one property patch identity exists NOT to have: a replayed change under ANY subdirectory stopped being recognisable, and `completion.unlanded` raised against work already on the trunk. That is the false NOT LANDED direction, on essentially every real change. CLOUD-739's §7 corpus could not catch it: every fixture path in it sat at the repository ROOT, where the only tree in the diff is the one being diffed and is never emitted as a change. `done_not_landed::a_rebased_then_landed_branch_does_ not_raise` caught it instead, and only because `mise run fmt` runs the wider gate. `a_nested_change_is_recognised_when_it_lands_on_a_moved_base` is the permanent case, and its named mutation is the defect itself — removing the `is_tree` skip is what reddens it, observed on the way in. Also repairs three test fixtures that CLOUD-739 broke: they built a `PatchId` from a 40-char string, and that commit narrowed `parse` from `40 | 64` to exactly 64. `9d2d6ed` was made after running the four new cases and the twelve landing cases by name, never the full suite, so two lib tests were red on it. Running the whole lib suite is what caught it: 1142/1142 green here. Refs: CLOUD-740, CLOUD-739, CLOUD-742, CLOUD-718, CLOUD-418
…r gate becomes a no-invoker one CLOUD-740's terminal deliverable. `repo_root` held the last child; with it gone, `no_second_git_invoker_exists` asserts that a literal `git` spawn appears NOWHERE under `src/` rather than merely nowhere outside this module. The change that makes it terminal is one argument — `crate_sources(false)`, so `git.rs` is no longer exempt — and it is observed red by reintroducing a spawn in `head_commit`. Deleted with the last spawn: `query`, `query_bytes`, `query_optional`, `command`, `DISCOVERY_REDIRECTS`, `DISCOVERY_FENCES`, `queries_spawned` and its `AtomicUsize`. A FAMILY OF REMEMBERED HAZARDS GOES WITH THEM, which is the part worth reading. `--end-of-options` on every argv carrying a caller token; its inverse in `rev-parse`'s ref-PRINTING modes, where the token is echoed as an output line rather than consumed, so `upstream_of_head` had to omit what every sibling carried; and `core.quotePath` deciding whether a non-ASCII path arrived readable. A resolver takes no flags and a path is bytes, so none of the three has anywhere left to occur. That is the migration's real return — not the process saved. SCOPE, corrected against the row. CLOUD-740 names three functions and its siblings CLOUD-738 and CLOUD-742 are both Done, so nothing open owned the rest. Measured on this tree: 27 spawn sites across 26 functions, all migrated here. (An earlier commit said 26 across 25 — that scan looked for `query`-shaped calls and missed `repo_root`, which built its child directly.) §3 is also wrong on this tree: it says no write primitive remains, and `set_config_local` is one. It now writes the repository's own config file directly. The first in-process version used `config_snapshot_mut` and did NOT replace an existing value while returning `Ok(())` — a silent no-op in the primitive `attribution identity` uses to displace a denied committer, which would have left every later commit misattributed while the repair claimed to have run. `a_repo_local_config_write_replaces_an_existing_value` is the round-trip case that caught it, and the crate's one write had none before. TWO DISCOVERY BEHAVIOURS, restored after being collapsed. `repo_root` scrubbed `GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES` on purpose — its answer must be a function of `start` and the filesystem — while every other read honoured the fence, because a caller who fenced discovery is relying on a refusal. `isolated()` declines the environment as a class, which flattened both into "ignore it" and let a fenced read walk up and answer about whatever repository sat above. `open` honours the ceiling, `repo_root` alone does not. The asymmetry is principled: a redirecting variable names a DIFFERENT repository, a ceiling can only stop the walk earlier, so the worst a ceiling does is refuse. The start is canonicalised before discovery, because `receipt.rs` passes a relative `"."` for every read and a ceiling is absolute — an upward walk over relative components matches no ceiling, so the fence was silently skipped for exactly those callers. `git -C .` resolved cwd first; this is that step made explicit. Refused rather than taken: gix's `status` and `excludes`. `status` pulls `blob-diff`, `dirwalk` pulls `attributes`, and `attributes` pulls `command` — the external-program and materialise-to-disk surface CLOUD-739 declined one commit ago. `uncommitted` and `changed_paths` read the index, the HEAD tree and the vendored `ignore` walker instead, sharing one walk so a count and a list cannot disagree; `check_ignore` reads that same walker, which settles §7(e)'s "exactly one implementation" in `ignore`'s favour. The cost is stated where it lives: no clean/smudge filters, so a filtered repository can over-report a modification — the safe direction when the caller is asking whether uncommitted work exists. `every_stays_shelled_out_claim_names_its_price` is made conditional in this same commit, which is resolution (3) of the three the row sets out and which the row requires be done here rather than split. Its SUBJECT narrows, not its predicate: if the module doc claims a spawn stays, it must still name `git2` and the rows that own the price. Vacuously true now, live again the day anything spawns. Retired: `tests/policy_input_narrowing.rs`'s spawn-delta case. Its anti-vacuity half called `repo_root` and asserted the counter MOVED, and that can never pass again — a case that cannot discriminate is what CLOUD-418 refuses (its own argument, turned on itself). What it asserted now holds crate-wide and is asserted where it is decidable. `no_second_git_invoker_exists` scans up to `#[cfg(test)]` and no further, stated rather than worked around: the fixture builder below it spawns a real `git` on purpose, because building fixtures with gix would test this module's backend against itself. Assembling the needle to dodge its own scan would have made the gate lie about its reach. Refs: CLOUD-740, CLOUD-320, CLOUD-718, CLOUD-743, CLOUD-742, CLOUD-418, CLOUD-780
… that would close its cycle `batten enforce` refused this tree from the moment CLOUD-739 added `crates/batten/src/patch.rs`: the module was in the judged set and absent from `declared_modules`, which `module-layering` reports rather than allowing. That is the coverage rule working as designed — its own header records catching three unplaced modules on its first run, before a human read the table — and it has now done it a fourth time. The placement comes with one forbidden edge, `patch -> git`. It is drawn from prose the tree already carries rather than an architecture invented in the table, which this module explicitly rules out of scope: `patch.rs` opens by saying it computes the identity `git::landing` consumes, and `git.rs` names `crate::patch` as that identity's authority. The back-edge would make the identity depend on the module that asks it for one, which is a cycle and not merely an inelegance. Two cases, in the pattern the module already uses for its other chains: the back-edge is refused, and the declared direction is clean. The second is the load-bearing one — a rule that refused both would be banning the edge rather than ordering it. Refs: CLOUD-740, CLOUD-359, CLOUD-739, CLOUD-251
…ow, and the removal gate that needs one CLOUD-360's core. `expand -> migrate -> contract` had only its last stage: the tree carried `RETIRED_KEYS`, which tolerates an already-removed key when read from a git ref, and nothing at all for the middle — a key still accepted, naming its replacement, with a date the acceptance ends. `Deprecation` and `DEPRECATED_KEYS` are that middle stage, and the two tables are ONE AUTHORITY read at consecutive points of a key's life rather than two places a deprecation is recorded. A key in both is a contradiction — still-accepted and already-gone — and `no_key_is_both_deprecated_and_retired` refuses it. THE TABLE AND THE DATE ARE ARGUMENTS, NOT READS, which is the design decision worth stating. A predicate that consulted the wall clock would answer differently tomorrow for the same commit, and a gate must not have that property. It also means the window is decidable in a test without planting a fake key in the published schema, which is why `DEPRECATED_KEYS` ships EMPTY: there are no real migrations in flight, and inventing one so a fixture has something to find would put a key in the published surface no consumer should ever write. Empty is not a disabled gate, and the direction matters. `removals_unannounced` reads BOTH tables, so an empty deprecation table makes every schema key removal a finding rather than none — CLOUD-251's safe direction, where a gate with nothing declared refuses rather than passing quietly. `apply_window` does the two halves §2 names. A key inside its window is STRIPPED before the typed parse, because `deny_unknown_fields` is total and the whole point of a window is that the old spelling still loads; its pointer is returned for the caller to report. A key past expiry is REFUSED THERE rather than left to fall through, because falling through would report it as an unknown key — a different diagnostic with a different remedy, and exactly the collapse §7(c) exists to catch. `an_unknown_key_is_refused_differently_from_a_deprecated_one` holds the two apart. Diagnostics are pointer-only per rule 4: key, replacement, expiry, owning row, and never the value configured at the key, which is the consumer's content and is what a diagnostic quoting the line would leak. Scope stated rather than implied: `schema_keys` reads TOP-LEVEL properties only, because that is the surface both tables can annotate — `RETIRED_KEYS` names `worktree`, not `worktree.pileup`. A field vanishing inside a `$defs` type is a real change this does not see, and claiming otherwise would be the wider promise CLOUD-251 calls vacuous. An unreadable schema is exit 1 rather than an empty key set: read as empty it would either report every key removed or wave a real removal through, depending which side it landed on. Nine cases, 43/43 config tests green. Still owed on this row, and not claimed here: the `config deprecations` verb, the `mise` task, `batten.toml`, hk and CI wiring, compiled-binary fixtures over the real binary, the mutation observations, and the history replay before deny severity. REFINEMENT DISCLOSURE (CLOUD-431). `ready-lint` refused this row as `ready-block-without-clauses` — it carried its obligations without the `§N` labels the DoR grammar anchors on, having been groomed before that convention. I added a labelled block transcribed from sentences already in the body, inventing no obligation, and then claimed the row. That still means the session implementing it refined it, which is the thing CLOUD-431 exists to surface, so it is said here rather than left in the board's history. Refs: CLOUD-360, CLOUD-251, CLOUD-418, CLOUD-780, CLOUD-431
CLOUD-360's contract half, and the wiring §2 asks for: a named `mise` task, a
`batten.toml` row, and the hk and CI legs that compose from them.
`batten config deprecations <ref>` reads the schema published at a ref, derives
the current one, and reports every top-level key that left the surface with
neither table announcing it. `mise run config-deprecations` resolves WHICH ref —
the latest release tag by version order, never `origin/main`, because the promise
is made to a consumer who installed a release and a key added and removed between
releases breaks nobody.
`deny` IS EARNED, not assumed. §7 required the predicate be replayed across
history first, and it was, against all 112 release tags on this tree:
exit 0 85 tags — no unannounced removal
exit 2 0 tags — it would never have fired against a past release
exit 3 27 tags — v0.0.26 and older, which predate the committed schema
Zero over 85 comparable releases is the whole argument: a gate that would have
refused past releases fires on work nobody can now fix. The exit-3 cluster is the
could-not-look path answering honestly, and it is bounded — v0.0.27 is the oldest
tag carrying the schema, and this gate always asks the newest.
THREE CENSUSES CAUGHT REAL DEFECTS, and two of the fixes are improvements rather
than repairs:
- The data-channel census found the verb emitting NO `-J` document on the
could-not-look path. A channel that is sometimes absent is unparseable, so the
document is emitted there too — and it is now THREE-VALUED, with a `baseline`
field separating "nothing was removed" from "nothing was compared". Those both
rendered `removed_without_window: []` before, which is CLOUD-251's vacuous pass
sitting inside the document a parser reads.
- The mutation runner found the gate's refusal had TWO redundant exit paths, so
neutering either changed nothing and no mutation could show it depended on
either. Collapsed to one exit carrying the engine's code through.
- `pointer_only` refused to conclude anything from a run that failed internally —
"what it did not emit proves nothing" — so its fixture now publishes a schema
carrying a content canary in a description AND a key absent from the real
surface. The verb reaches its REPORTING path, so the pointer-only property is
proven rather than vacuously satisfied.
`--against` became a positional on the way through. A required flag is not how
this surface takes the one input a verb cannot work without, and the census only
supplies positionals — but it stays REQUIRED either way: a gate that picked its
own baseline could quietly choose one that makes it pass.
Also registered where a new gate has to be: `MUTANT_GATES`, `bench/suites`, the
two `spec` censuses, and the pointer-only disposition table. Each of those refused
first, correctly.
Refs: CLOUD-360, CLOUD-251, CLOUD-418, CLOUD-33, CLOUD-239
CLOUD-760. Every existing fact is Free/Read x Hook/Check; `Cost::Effect` and `Surface::VerifyOnly` were reserved so the first fact needing one would not invent its own boundary. This is that fact. `symbols.rs` generalises `secrets.rs`'s adapter shape rather than copying it: the analyser binary is pinned, its flags live beside the parser, and the exit status is reconciled against the parse -- carrying that module's invariant verbatim, that clean is never inferred from a stream that failed to parse. Acquisition is `cargo clippy --message-format=json` with `--force-warn`, which overrides `allow`/`expect` and so turns an enforcement lint into an inventory. `Fact::Symbols` is APPENDED, never inserted, classified `Effect x Check`, with its class const stated beside the other nineteen and its `tree_key` in the same table. `Surface::Hook` is refused, and refused as a CENSUS over `Fact::ALL` rather than an assertion about this variant: the first `Effect` fact is the occasion for that rule, not its subject. Provenance travels inside the fact -- tool, version, pinned invocation -- because the byte-stability contract is a claim about a named producer, and a bare site list is attributable to nothing. Sites are pointer-only per rule 4: a path, a line, the lint that fired, never the diagnostic's message or the source it quoted. The projection is three-valued and the key is always present, which is the git family's invariant: `null` for both did-not-look answers, an empty `sites` only for an analyser that ran and resolved nothing. Collapsing that pair is CLOUD-251's vacuous pass. Acquisition happens once at the boundary beside the git family, and only when a row declared it -- a projection that spawns is exactly what the class exists to prevent. `module-layering` states that as a direction rather than a convention: `symbols -> rules` is forbidden, `rules -> symbols` is the arrangement. That rule named the new module before a human did, for the third time. `policy_rule` now takes the whole `RunInputs`, which is what that struct's doc already said it was for; enumerating its members was affordable until this row made the seventh. Refs: CLOUD-760, CLOUD-251, CLOUD-418, CLOUD-743, CLOUD-757
CLOUD-760's consumer, and what makes the new fact a fact rather than a
facility. `.claude/rules/rust.md` has always said a spawn is an inventory row
and the `#[expect]` beside it is where somebody wrote down whether it stays.
Nothing gated WHERE a spawn may appear, and nothing could: the byte tier counts
14 sites, a syntax matcher 11, name resolution 9, and the spread is one import
-- `surface.rs` writes `use clap::{..., Command}`, so the token names a
different type there and a call expression looks identical either way. A gate
built on either scanner reports `surface.rs` as an unplaced spawning module,
and every honest remedy for that false positive is worse than the rule.
So the module reads `input.tree.symbols`, which excludes `surface.rs` because
the compiler knows what the name means. The table is a PLACEMENT -- which
modules own a delegated tool -- and deliberately not a bound on how many spawns
a placed module holds; that is the self-cleaning `#[expect]` inventory's job,
and a second authority would drift from it.
Could-not-look refuses rather than passes: `input.tree.symbols` is `null` both
when no row declared the fact and when the analyser could not be run, and
neither is a tree with no unplaced spawns.
OBSERVED RED under a named mutation (CLOUD-418), since a policy module has no
bats suite the mutation runner can reach: a `Command::new("true")` seeded into
`git.rs` -- unplaced, and the module CLOUD-739/740 spent the campaign emptying
-- took the tree from zero findings to two, and both went away on revert. Two
rather than one because the seed's signature and its call each RESOLVE the
type, which is the resolved tier counting a use rather than an occurrence.
One defect found by building it: the table was first a name -> reason map, and
one placement is the `rules` module itself. `policy.rs`'s `descend` walks every
object member looking for a `rules` rule, so that key shadowed the bundle's
published id and the engine refused the whole module. The table is a set now
and the reasons are a comment.
Refs: CLOUD-760, CLOUD-251, CLOUD-418, CLOUD-743, CLOUD-757
Both are generated artifacts, regenerated rather than hand-merged after the rebase onto main: tests/config-deprecations.bats is a new suite the bench table had no row for, and the fuzz lockfile conflicted textually where its generator resolves it cleanly. Refs: CLOUD-360
`batten policy test` refused the module for carrying none -- correctly: the acceptance clause was observed end to end against the real tree, which says the rule fires, and says nothing about the shapes it must NOT fire on. The allow cases are the load-bearing half. One real defect, found by the cases rather than in the field. `not x` holds when `x` is undefined or false, and `null` is neither -- so the could-not-look guard passed a census that was present and null, which is exactly the shape the projection emits for both did-not-look answers. Two definitions now, with the reason written down. Also declares the CLOUD-360 gate's one-program growth of the bash surface rather than hiding it: what stays in shell there is resolving WHICH ref the published schema is read at, and no rule kind expresses a tag ordering. CLOUD-910 retires it with the rest of the census. Refs: CLOUD-760, CLOUD-251, CLOUD-418, CLOUD-743, CLOUD-757
…mits `opa check -s` refused the consuming module, and it was right twice over. The fragment typed the fact as a bare object while the projection emits `null` for both did-not-look answers, so the schema was lying about a value the engine actually produces -- and the module handling that value was the thing reported as wrong. Nullable now, like the git family and for its reason. This is the argument for deriving the schema from the fact rather than writing it beside the fact: the two could not disagree for long. The module's could-not-look guard is over `sites` rather than over the fact, which is the one spelling that answers both problems. `not input.tree.symbols` misses a present `null` -- `not` holds for undefined and false, and `null` is neither -- and the obvious repair, `== null`, does not type, because the checker narrows a `["object", "null"]` ref to its object arm and calls the comparison a match error. Asking for `sites` leaves absent, null and census-less all undefined, while an empty census carries `[]` and stays clean. Refs: CLOUD-760

- Around line 518-549: Update config::load and config::load_authority to call
apply_window before typed parsing, using the transformed TOML and handling its
reported deprecations; ensure the resulting path applies expiry and migration
checks before parse/parse_ungated and preserves the required expiry error.
In `@crates/batten/src/git.rs`:
- Around line 1099-1145: Optimize working_tree_changes by replacing per-entry
peel_to_entry_by_path lookups with one ordered merge between sorted index
entries and the HEAD tree, and use each index entry’s recorded size and mtime as
a fast negative check before reading and hashing files. Preserve content-based
change detection for stat-mismatched candidates, deletion handling, symlink
behavior, and unborn-HEAD semantics; update the module documentation to mention
the resulting complexity tradeoff.
- Around line 1087-1096: Update working_tree_changes and the corresponding
repo-root handling around the path filtering function to use the opened
repository’s own working directory instead of repo_root(dir), ensuring linked
worktrees compare against their own files and ignore root. In the repo-local
config write logic, use repo.common_dir() rather than repo.git_dir() when
constructing the config path. Extend
a_repo_local_config_write_replaces_an_existing_value with a linked-worktree
fixture covering these distinct paths. Apply changes at crates/batten/src/git.rs
lines 1087-1096, 1714-1729, and 1501-1508; all three sites require the changes
described.
- Around line 1501-1508: Update set_config_local to read and write the
repository-local config under common_dir rather than git_dir, ensuring linked
worktrees modify the shared config. Replace direct File::create truncation with

writing fails. Extend a_repo_local_config_write_replaces_an_existing_value with
a linked-worktree case.

Call apply_window before typed config parsing.
config::load and config::load_authority call parse, which calls parse_ungated directly. No production path calls apply_window. An expired key therefore reaches Config’s deny_unknown_fields check and produces an unknown-key error instead of the required expiry error.

working_tree_changes performs a tree lookup and a full file read plus hash for every tracked file on every call.
Two costs compound inside the loop:
- Line 1115 calls
peel_to_entry_by_path(path)once per index entry. Each call decodes the tree objects along that path. The previous implementation asked git for one index-versus-tree diff. - Lines 1130-1141 read the whole file and compute its object hash for every entry whose index id matches HEAD.
git statusconsults the stat cache first and hashes only candidates.
uncommitted and changed_paths both route here, and status_fact, stop, and baseline all call them. On a repository with many tracked files this reads and hashes the entire checkout on each invocation.
The module doc at lines 1074-1081 states the cost of declining gix status as "clean/smudge filters are not applied" only. The complexity cost is not stated.
Two options that keep the chosen dependency set:
- Diff the index against the HEAD tree once, with a single ordered merge over both sorted entry lists, instead of a per-entry path lookup.
- Use the index entry's recorded size and mtime as a fast negative check, and hash only when the stat differs. A stat mismatch then decides whether to read, so the answer stays content-based for every candidate.

set_config_local writes to the per-worktree Git directory, and it truncates the config file before writing.
Two separate problems in this hunk.
First, line 1501 builds the path from repo.git_dir(). git_dir at lines 1555-1558 states that this is the per-worktree directory, and that common_dir is the shared one. Repository-local config lives in the common directory. Inside a linked worktree, git_dir() is .git/worktrees/<name>, which holds no config file. Real git ignores a file there unless extensions.worktreeConfig is set.
The consequence is the exact failure the comment at lines 1488-1496 says it prevents. attribution identity reports a successful write, and every later commit keeps the denied committer. The new test a_repo_local_config_write_replaces_an_existing_value cannot detect this, because its fixture is a plain git init repository where git_dir() and common_dir() are the same path.
Second, line 1507 calls std::fs::File::create, which truncates the existing file. If write_to then fails, the repository config is lost. git config --local wrote through a lock file and renamed it into place.
🐛 Proposed fix: target the common dir and write atomically
- let path = repo.git_dir().join("config");
+ // THE COMMON DIR, never the per-worktree one: repo-local config is shared
+ // across linked worktrees, and a file under `.git/worktrees/<name>/` is
+ // ignored by git unless `extensions.worktreeConfig` is set — a write that
+ // reports success and changes nothing.
+ let path = repo.common_dir().join("config");

- file.write_to(&mut out).map_err(|_| refusal())?;

Rust ignore 0.4.33 GitignoreBuilder::add return type behavior missing unreadable files
💡 Result:
In the ignore crate (including version 0.4.33), the GitignoreBuilder::add method returns an Option<Error> [1][2]. This return type is designed to communicate partial or complete failures encountered while reading and parsing the specified gitignore file [1][3]. The behavior regarding unreadable files (e.g., I/O errors when opening or reading the file) is as follows: 1. File Access Errors: If the file cannot be opened (e.g., due to lack of permissions or the file not existing), the method returns Some(Error::Io(err)), where err is the specific I/O error [2]. 2. Partial Parsing Errors: If the file is successfully opened but contains invalid glob patterns, add will still parse the valid lines [1][2]. If it encounters an I/O error while reading individual lines, it captures that error and returns it as part of the result [2]. Because add returns an Option<Error>, it effectively signals whether any error (I/O or parsing) occurred during the processing of that specific file [1][4]. If no errors occur, it returns None [1][5]. In the context of ignore 0.4.33, specifically, there was a change that skips loading unreachable ignore files, but for the explicit GitignoreBuilder::add method, it continues to return errors encountered during the attempt to load the path provided [6].

Handle errors from GitignoreBuilder::add
crates/batten uses ignore 0.4.33, where GitignoreBuilder::add returns Option<Error> for file access and parsing failures. The calls at lines 1720, 1724, and 1727 discard these errors, so check_ignore can report “not ignored” after an ignore file fails to load. Check .gitignore existence before adding it, and return Err(refusal()) when add returns Some(_).

A modification's identity includes the full pre-image blob id, which breaks the replay invariance this module promises.
For Kind::Modified, line 144 calls side(hasher, before, None). With previous = None, side takes the else branch at line 180 and hashes before.oid. The pre-image object id is a function of the entire file, not of the hunks.
The module doc states the opposite contract: "the hunks are the change and the surrounding file is not".
Concrete failure: main modifies line 1 of f.txt. A feature commit modifies line 500 of f.txt. The feature commit is cherry-picked onto main. The hunks are identical on both sides, but the pre-image oid differs, so the two identities differ and completion.unlanded reports work that is already on the trunk. git patch-id was insensitive to a change 500 lines away because it hashed hunk bodies and context only.
This is the "false not landed" direction, so it is noise rather than a lie. It still defeats the primitive's stated purpose on any file two branches both touch.
Consider hashing only the mode for the before side of a modification, and letting the edit script carry the content. The after side already does that.
♻️ Proposed change to keep the pre-image out of the identity
Kind::Modified { before, after } => {
field(&mut hasher, b"~");
- side(&mut hasher, before, None);
+ // The pre-image contributes its MODE only: including its object
+ // id would make the identity a function of the whole file, which
+ // is the base-dependence this primitive exists not to have.
+ field(&mut hasher, before.mode.to_le_bytes().as_slice());
side(&mut hasher, after, Some(before));
}Note that the fixture in crates/batten/tests/primitives.rs cannot catch this: every replay case there modifies a file the target branch never touched.

Rule::validate() checks only fields returned by Rule::columns(). Since symbols is absent, any rule kind can accept symbols = true. symbols_fact() then resolves the whole crate whenever such a rule reaches run(), although only tree-scoped policy evaluation passes the result to tree_document(). The mediated-call projection returns None for Fact::Symbols.

Cargo nested cargo test child cargo clippy build directory file lock while tests execute target directory lock
💡 Result:
Cargo uses file locking to manage access to the target directory and ensure build consistency, which can lead to deadlocks or stalls when nested cargo processes compete for these locks [1][2]. Key aspects of this behavior include: Locking Mechanism: Cargo takes exclusive locks on files within the target directory (such as .cargo-lock or newer variants like .cargo-build-lock and .cargo-artifact-lock) to prevent multiple concurrent Cargo processes from corrupting build artifacts [3][4][5][6]. When a process attempts to build or test while another Cargo process holds these locks, it will block with the message: "Blocking waiting for file lock on build directory" [1][2]. Nested Cargo Processes: When a test or build script invokes a nested cargo command (e.g., cargo build or cargo clippy), both the outer (parent) and inner (child) processes often attempt to access the same target directory [1][7]. If they are not configured to use separate directories, the child process will wait for the parent to release the lock, resulting in a deadlock if the parent is also waiting for the child to finish [1][7]. Mitigation Strategies: 1. Use Separate Target Directories: The most effective way to avoid deadlocks is to ensure nested cargo processes use a different target directory. This can be done by setting the CARGO_BUILD_DIR or CARGO_TARGET_DIR environment variables for the child process [1][2]. 2. Avoid Nesting in Tests: If possible, refactor tests to avoid spawning nested cargo processes [7]. For example, use pre-built binaries and locate them via environment variables like CARGO_BIN_EXE_<name> provided by Cargo during integration tests [7]. 3. --offline Flag: In some cases, running nested commands with --offline can avoid certain lock contentions related to the package cache [8][9]. 4. Build Configuration: Ensure that configurations (like config.toml) do not inadvertently force nested processes to share the same build directory layout, as this can cause them to contend for the same locks [1]. Recent developments in Cargo, such as the implementation of fine-grained locking and separating build/artifact locks, aim to reduce contention, but they do not eliminate the fundamental conflict when multiple processes attempt to write to the same build root [3][4][10][5].

Set a separate target directory and a timeout for both analyser invocations. symbols::version and symbols::resolve use Command::output() without a timeout and do not set CARGO_TARGET_DIR or --target-dir. During cargo test, the nested Cargo process can wait on the shared target-directory lock and hang the suite.

Run the deprecation command through Mise.
Line 60 invokes cargo run directly. This can select tooling outside the declared Mise lifecycle. Invoke the command through a declared mise run task or mise exec instead.
As per coding guidelines: mise-tasks/**: “Use mise for everything; never a bare cargo/export/one-off install.”

CI caught this on windows and on nothing else: one red case out of 2288, `a_branch_restarted_after_its_pr_merged_carries_no_usable_claim`, expecting the claim gate to refuse a write and getting an allow. The regression is this migration's. The shelled-out `repo_root` answered from `git rev-parse --show-toplevel`, which is a plain path; the gix one answers from `Path::canonicalize`, which on Windows returns the VERBATIM spelling `\\?\D:\a\batten`. Nothing else in the crate produces one, so `receipt::judgeable`'s `absolute.starts_with(&root)` never held: every write read as OUTSIDE the repository, was not judgeable, and was allowed. The claim gate was off on Windows while deciding correctly on the other three platforms. `plain` strips that prefix at the source -- `repo_root`, `common_dir` and `git_dir`, the three paths the crate hands out -- so every comparison is fixed once rather than at each call site. A verbatim UNC path keeps its prefix: its plain spelling is not equivalent, and rewriting one would trade a comparison bug for a resolution bug. Tested as a DECISION, not a condition. This sandbox cannot make `canonicalize` return a verbatim path, so a test over a real `repo_root` would assert its own premise and pass for the wrong reason -- `.claude/rules/rust.md`'s rule and CLOUD-249's. `plain` takes a literal, so the case runs everywhere and goes red against the identity function the tree carried when CI failed.

Bundle E landed nine rows in #683 (released as v0.0.112) and skipped four. Re-checking the skips found three of the four reasons wrong or expired, so this finishes them, plus CLOUD-372 which was ready and unlanded.

The selective import isimara-diffitself, notgix-diff/blob: that feature is monolithic and its eight non-imara-diffdeps exist to run external diff drivers and clean/smudge filters and to materialise blobs to disk for them. Taking it would reintroduce host configuration deciding patch identity — the exact thing the 20 pinnedDIFF_CONFIGkeys existed to prevent.DIFF_CONFIG,DIFF_FLAGSandDIFF_ENVare deleted.The normalisation is now written down as a decision in
PatchId's doc rather than being whichever flags happened to be pinned.A tree-delta identity was checked and rejected rather than skipped: it beats git on both recorded defects but reads a rebased-then-landed branch as not landed, which is the one thing this fact exists to answer.
A real defect surfaced during the migration:
tree_changeshashed directory entries, and a tree oid encodes its siblings — so identity was base-dependent and any change under a subdirectory read as unlanded after a rebase. Found bydone_not_landed's own fixture, fixed with anis_tree()skip, and pinned by a new nested-path case.CLOUD-740 — nothing in the crate spawns

Cost stated rather than absorbed: no clean/smudge filters, so over-reporting is possible — the safe direction.Two defects the migration exposed:

No scanner can write that rule:surface.rsimportsclap::Commandbare, so a byte scan (14) and a syntax matcher (11) both report it as an unplaced spawning module, and every honest remedy for that false positive is worse than the rule.
