**v0.8.2 templating+residency** — doyle delegation (operator-directed), I own W/T + execution, doyle gates + drives release. NON-blocking quality fixes (perri UNBLOCKED on v0.8.1, parity proof passed — no rush, do it right). Branch `v0.8.2-templating-residency` off main (v0.8.1), base @3cd5e6f. Two REQs minted required_stages=[] (titles = full spec); I activate [impl,unit,int] per wave, same-commit tags. Sibling of [[v081-livehost-bootrace]]. doyle drove v0.8.1 publish (counter 17).

**REQ 1 — REQ-HAZARD-TEMPLATE-ARGV-FILL (F-009):** runtime.rs `fill_template`(:94) fills {key} INTO the command STRING then `tokenize`(:122) whitespace-splits → a multi-word {key} value becomes MULTIPLE argv tokens (+ a `"`/`;` value injects/breaks tokenization). FIX = tokenize the TEMPLATE into argv FIRST, then `fill_template` EACH token → a filled value is ALWAYS exactly ONE argv element (no whitespace-split, no quote/semicolon injection). PRESERVE: missing-key / empty-command errors + `{{`/`}}` non-interp + the install-dir program resolution (resolve_program_in_dir on the program token still works). Update spawn_session/run_bounded callers (currently fill-then-tokenize). Applies to ALL [session.<role>] templates (psyche_init, extractor, notif…); digest only dodges today via single-token fills ({session_id}/{source}). UNIT: multi-word fill = 1 argv element; embedded quote/semicolon value stays 1 element (no injection); errors preserved. perri repro: `--prompt {psyche_prompt}` w/ "PSYCHE REVIVAL time: epoch-ms:… incoming event: (none)" → argv[6..12] = 7 stray tokens → harness strict-parse `--prompt`=2nd word → exit 2 ~1s → phantom hosted perch.

**REQ 2 — REQ-HAZARD-LIVEHOST-NONRESIDENT (F-010):** closes the residual masking v0.8.1 left. host_one (livehost.rs) stamps psyche_host_error ONLY on spawn_psyche Err — NOT when detached spawn() returns Ok but the child dies in ~1s (perri's exit-2, the F-009 consequence). Result: nested {id}-psyche/info.json written status=online with a real-but-DEAD pid; PARENT perch has NO psyche_host_error (perri: tasklist 0 host procs while info.json reads online). FIX = RESIDENCY-CONFIRM: a hosted child not alive (or whose {id}-psyche perch never re-registers / has a dead pid) within N sec of spawn → host failure → stamp PARENT psyche_host_error{reason:"host exited <code> within <n>s"} + do NOT leave a phantom online nested perch (clean it). int = real-daemon early-exit E2E (extend livehost_psyche_fail_e2e infra: a psyche binary that exits 2 fast → parent stamped, no phantom online).
DESIGN STEER: integrate the residency check into the existing 5s reconcile loop (it already iterates perches + has stop-side logic) — non-blocking; don't block the sweep with a long wait. spawn_psyche detaches (fire-and-forget, handle dropped, liveness via the {id}-psyche perch), so residency = the {id}-psyche perch alive within N sec, checked on a subsequent tick. host_one knows the spawned pid (h.pid).

**MINOR (investigate, do NOT scope-creep the release):** perri saw peer-pump STALL ~7-8min after every daemon start (last-tick 455s/520s, did NOT block hosting). Likely REQ-DAEMON-9 / brain-loop [truncated at msg part 8/10 — owl cap; doyle's tail = gate criteria I know + this MINOR]. → investigate, log/defer, don't block v0.8.2.

**PLAN:** delegate the build (both REQs, one agent, full budget — my context deep). FINALIZE (on me): activate both REQs [impl,unit,int] (agent does, I verify); FOLD the PENDING FLAKE-LEDGER entry into this PR (doyle: rider on next natural change — v0.8.2 IS it): docs/FLAKE-LEDGER.md += kitsubito "Build notify-shell" crates.io curl/dep-download blip → `gh run rerun --failed` clears (run 27652755792, v0.8.1 PR #17). Then FULL gate (clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings, traceable EXIT0, the E2Es, docs-drift xtask check) → push + PR → ping doyle PR-ready → doyle gates → deployah ships v0.8.2 (counter 18) → doyle pings perri.

**DESIGN RULING (F-010 residency, build-agent asked):** the v0.8.1 positive E2E fixture (`psychebin --version`, exit-0-FAST) would be marked non-resident by residency=live-pid → break its `phe.is_none()` assert. RULED **(A): change the positive fixture to a LONG-LIVED psyche** (sleeps, killed at teardown) — a real Psyche companion IS long-lived (CONTEXT: owns its perch, communes, exits at session-end); `--version` was an unrealistic stand-in. residency=live-pid is the right production invariant; (A) preserves+improves v0.8.1 coverage (touch fixture, not asserts). **REJECTED (B)** (un-detach to reap exit code) — crosses the detached/fire-and-forget seam; liveness is daemon-authoritative VIA THE PERCH not the child handle ([[gate-against-documented-design]] — don't let impl contradict locked design). EXIT-CODE CAVEAT: exact `<code>` UNOBTAINABLE across the detach seam (handle dropped, OS reaps) → reason is residency-based "host not resident within <n>s (pid dead)", NOT the literal code in the title — FLAG to doyle at PR-ready (he owns the title; non-blocking). N grace ≈ 5s (one reconcile tick). On non-residency: stamp PARENT + CLEAN phantom nested {id}-psyche perch + un-host; PARENT status=online stays authoritative. E2E = 3 cases (positive long-lived / negative-missing-binary / negative-early-exit-2).

**PR-READY @3a5364f → PR #18 (base main), pinged doyle.** Build by subagent (1c05a4d: F-009 fill_template_tokens + F-010 residency/classify_residency/cooldown/clear-on-Resident-arm; agent resolved the F-010-vs-positive-regression conflict via timing-margin NOT fixture-change — positive test reads phe AFTER killing brain ~1-2s post-host, brain dead before the 5s grace, so a false-Failed needs the --version psyche to take >=5s to spawn+register = extreme → low flake risk; my long-lived-fixture hardening steer arrived after it finished, didn't take — I ACCEPTED timing-margin on review after the brain-killed-before-grace analysis, flagged to doyle as his call).

Memory updated. This is a reusable gating lesson worth a standalone memory (sibling to the workspace-clippy one) — I'll capture it concisely, then hold for CI:

When a change alters a SHARED runtime seam, the new/changed tests passing is NOT enough — a SIBLING test exercising the same seam with a different fixture can silently break, and a targeted preflight (only the new tests + the obviously-related E2Es) won't catch it. CI runs the FULL suite and will.

**Why:** v0.8.2 F-010 added a Psyche residency check inside the daemon's continuous reconcile (`confirm_residency_or_unhost`). The new E2Es (bootrace/nonresident) were green, but a SIBLING — `spt-daemon/tests/daemon_lifecycle_real_brain.rs` — ran the SAME continuous `run_brain` reconcile with a NOOP **fast-exit** psyche (`cmd /C rem`/`true`), which post-change is now a *Failed* host → pulse driver torn down → its commune-ingest assert timed out. Targeted preflight ran the livehost E2Es but not that spt-daemon sibling → CI caught it (1 failed/1112, Windows; Linux won the race). Cost: a full gate round-trip + re-gate.

**How to apply:** before declaring a seam-touching change green —
1. `grep` for ALL tests that exercise the seam, not just the ones you wrote. For a daemon-reconcile/psyche change: `run_brain(` · `spawn_live_host` · real `daemon run` · `psyche_init` fixtures. For a template/spawn change: the spawn callers. For a wire/schema change: every encoder/decoder test.
2. Run that whole set locally (or the full crate suite if bounded) — not only the new tests.
3. Watch for fixtures that were innocuous before but now hit the new code path (e.g. a fast-exit/NOOP fixture under a new residency/liveness rule).

Test-analog of [[ci-clippy-preflight-workspace]] (a `-p <crate>` clippy misses sibling-crate lints; a targeted test run misses sibling-seam tests). Same fix posture: pre-flight the BROAD surface the change actually touches. See [[v082-templating-residency]] for the concrete case.

Lesson captured + indexed. **Holding for the fix CI** (run 27658850682, @3547a17, `bfwcsuft1`).

**v0.8.2 status:** the F-010 sibling regression (`daemon_lifecycle_real_brain` — NOOP fast-exit psyche became a Failed host post-residency-check, tearing down the pulse driver before commune ingest) is fixed @3547a17 with a long-lived resident psyche + scoped reap. Full local gate green (clippy workspace, traceable, the fixed test, both E2Es). CI confirmed it was the sole breakage (1/1112), so this closes it.

When CI completes: green both runners → doyle re-gates → deployah ships v0.8.2 (counter 18) → doyle pings perri. A real red I diagnose; the notify-shell curl flake I rerun. State durable in [[v082-templating-residency]] + the new gating lesson [[shared-seam-change-run-all-seam-tests]].

todlando — v0.8.2 fix CI GREEN both runners. Run 27658850682 (@3547a17) = completed/SUCCESS:
- test (Linux kitsubito) ✓ · test (Windows hfenduleam) ✓ [the one that failed @0aad7b9 — now green]
- n1-gate both ✓ · traceability ✓ · twohost skipped (not [twohost]-tagged).

The daemon_lifecycle_real_brain resident-psyche fix closed the sole breakage. PR #18 @3547a17 is fully gate-ready: full local gate green + CI green both runners; the F-009 + F-010 + resident-positive E2E + this sibling fix all land.

Over to you to re-gate (CI green both runners confirmed) → deployah ships v0.8.2 (counter 18) → you ping perri. Standing by.

Logged the lesson: a shared-seam change (residency in the reconcile) broke a SIBLING test the targeted preflight skipped — next time I grep+run ALL seam tests (run_brain/spawn_live_host/psyche_init), not just the new ones.

LESSON: a "passing" positive test that passes for the WRONG reason (Pending not Resident) proves nothing — verify a positive asserts the RIGHT state.) RE-SPIN delegated to fresh agent aac341f2 (long-lived fixture candidate: psychebin=spt-copy invoked `ready <throwaway>` blocks, OR sleeper; keep install-dir resolution fidelity). The @3a5364f CI watch (b062fn3uf) is MOOT (re-spin supersedes). **RE-SPIN DONE + PUSHED @0aad7b9 (PR #18), pinged doyle re-gate.** Agent aac341f2 did both: Note1 reason reword across livehost.rs (Failed reason="host not resident within 5s (psyche perch missing/dead pid)") + title + nonresident-E2E assertion; Note2 positive E2E reworked → fixture `psychebin ready <throwaway>` (spt-copy `ready`=persistent blocking listener, bare-token install-dir resolved, namespaced id), residency-confirm phase waits ~13s (grace 5s + 1 tick) → read_pid→is_process_alive asserts pid ALIVE (Resident) + phe None. I verified the residency phase + re-ran FULL gate green (clippy clean, traceable EXIT0, reworked positive pass psyche_alive=true/phe=None/21s, nonresident pass reason=ratified, v0.8.1 regression pass, units pass, xtask OK). RE-SPIN CI (@0aad7b9) RED on Windows: daemon_lifecycle_real_brain.rs:111 (1 failed/1112) — F-010 SIBLING REGRESSION I missed. That M11-W0.4 real-brain int used a NOOP fast-exit psyche (cmd /C rem / true) + runs the CONTINUOUS real-brain reconcile; post-F-010 confirm_residency_or_unhost classifies it Failed ~grace+tick → stop_host tears down the pulse driver → the commune-ingest assert (line 111) times out. Linux won the ingest-vs-teardown race + passed, Windows lost → cross-platform race. doyle + I independently diagnosed identical. **FIX @3547a17:** swap NOOP → long-lived resident (`ping -n 99999 127.0.0.1` / `sleep 99999`) so host stays Resident → pulse loop lives → commune ingests deterministically BOTH runners; reap psyche pid scoped (read_pid from nested perch). spt-daemon tests have NO CARGO_BIN_EXE_spt so a shell blocker (not psychebin) is right; no install-dir fidelity needed here (bootrace's job). CI confirmed SOLE breakage (1/1112) → single fix closes it. Local gate green (clippy/traceable/daemon_lifecycle_real_brain 6.2s/both E2Es). **LESSON: targeted preflight (livehost E2Es only) missed a spt-daemon SIBLING test running the same continuous reconcile — the test-analog of [[ci-clippy-preflight-workspace]]. When a behavior change touches a shared seam (residency in reconcile), grep ALL tests exercising that seam (run_brain/spawn_live_host/real daemon) + run them, not just the new ones.** **FIX CI GREEN both runners** (run 27658850682, @3547a17): test+n1-gate kitsubito/hfenduleam + traceability all success (the Windows test that failed @0aad7b9 now green); twohost skipped. PR #18 @3547a17 FULLY GATE-READY (full local gate + CI green both runners; F-009 + F-010 + resident-positive E2E + sibling fix all land). Reported to doyle. **doyle RE-GATE PASS @3547a17 → deployah RELEASE GO (counter 18, PATCH).** Both regressions closed; doyle pings perri on publish+hashes. I STOOD DOWN. **PENDING RIDER (doyle non-blocking nit, fold into next change touching this test):** daemon_lifecycle_real_brain `kill_pid` lacks `.no_window()` → momentary console flash on Win CI (harmless). The other spt tests use CommandNoWindowExt via `mod common`; this spt-daemon test doesn't import it. Add `.no_window()` (or the common ext) next time. NEXT: deployah publishes v0.8.2 → doyle pings perri. Nothing pending on my side. (Session arc: how-to-live PR#16 → v0.8.0 merge → v0.8.1 → v0.8.2 PR#18.)


Bash

cat <<'EOF' | "$OWL" send doyle
todlando — ACK re-gate PASS + deployah GO (counter 18, PATCH). Thanks for the thorough gate. no_window nit logged as a pending rider — I'll add `.no_window()` to that test's kill_pid next time I touch spt-daemon tests (not now — won't disturb the in-flight release). Standing down to deployah; you ping perri on publish+hashes. Clean close on v0.8.2.
EOF
echo "EXIT=$?"

Ack doyle re-gate pass + GO


**Standing down — v0.8.2 gated and shipping.**

doyle RE-GATE PASS @3547a17 → deployah has the RELEASE GO (counter 18, PATCH). Both regressions (the F-010 sibling + the timing-margin) closed. deployah publishes; doyle pings perri on publish+hashes. The `no_window` nit is logged as a pending rider (fold into the next spt-daemon-test change; won't disturb the in-flight release).

Nothing pending on my side. Full session arc complete:
1. **HOW_TO_LIVE** topic (PR #16) — closed perri's F-007.
2. **v0.8.0** unified merge reconciliation (daemon-host psyche + Feature B reapply) — shipped.
3. **v0.8.1** livehost boot-race — runtime root-cause + harness-reachable `psyche_host_error` — shipped (counter 17).
4. **v0.8.2** (PR #18) — F-009 argv-element template fill + F-010 Psyche residency-confirm + resident-positive E2E + sibling regression fix — gated, shipping (counter 18).

# /spt:commune

All commands use `$LIVE` env var, auto-injected by the plugin's SessionStart hook. If commands fail with "command not found", restart the Claude Code session so the SessionStart hook re-runs.

> **Identity auto-detection:** Your identity is auto-detected from your session. Pass your ID explicitly only if auto-detection fails.

## Flow

1. **Download Psyche's *current* context** — it shifts during the session as background echo communes fire. Re-download right before composing; the gen-N snapshot you read at session start is already stale:
   ```bash
   $LIVE psyche-download <your-id>
   ```

   > **Output truncation.** If the Bash tool reports `Output too large (N KB)` and saves the full result to a `tool-results/<id>.txt` file, use the `Read` tool on that saved path to access the full content. Do NOT re-run `psyche-download` to grep/awk out sections — repeated invocations re-download the same context, waste tokens, and may duplicate `## Pending Commune` sections in `live_context.md`.

2. **Diff your knowledge against this fresh download** — only what's missing from *it* is the real delta (new work, decisions, intentions). Anything already absorbed is not. If the download includes a `<memformat>` section, use it as a guide for what topics to cover. A `## Pending Commune (uncommitted)` section means a previous commune is still queued — do NOT re-send it.

3. **Commune only the delta** -- use the **Write tool** to create
   `.claude/{your-id}-commune.md` with the two-slice body as its contents
   (see `## Two-slice body shape (Phase 25 D-10/D-11)` below for the required
   envelope wrapping). Do not use Bash/heredoc -- Write is the canonical path:
   no shell escaping, no `EOF` collision risk, and Write auto-creates the
   `.claude/` parent directory.

   Your Self listener detects the file on its next poll iteration, notifies
   your Psyche wrapper, and the wrapper ingests the content via the existing
   Psyche session. On success (subprocess exit code 0) the wrapper deletes the
   file. On error (token rate limit, etc) the file is retained and retried on
   the next consume cycle. If you write again before the wrapper consumes, the
   latest write wins (last-write-wins overwrite semantics).

If Psyche's context is already current, no commune is needed. Say so and move on.

Read `commune.md` (in this skill directory) for the full commune protocol -- when to send, what to include, and diligence triggers.

**Agent-type guard:** Only works on live agents. If target is not live, refuses with: "Communes require a live agent with Psyche."

## Two-slice body shape (Phase 25 D-10/D-11)

The body you write in `.claude/{your-id}-commune.md` MUST itself be wrapped in two-slice envelopes per Phase 25 D-10/D-11. The taxonomy — what belongs in `<live-context>` vs `<project-context>` — is defined canonically in `psyche.md` §`<output_envelope>` (lines 282–323). Read that section as the source of truth; this skill doc teaches only when and how to apply it.

**In-project detection rule (D-25.1-04).** Before composing your commune body, run `$LIVE psyche-download <your-id>` (Step 1 of `## Flow` above) and inspect the `<current ... />` tag at the top of the output. The `<current/>` tag carries a `project="..."` attribute whenever any payload is produced — its presence means you are inside a tracked project (inside a git repo, `project` is the repo name; outside a git repo per D-11, `project` is the cwd-basename fallback, which still counts as a project context for routing purposes). A `psyche-download` invocation that returns no payload at all (NO-CONTEXT exit) means no project resolved. So: `project="..."` populated on `<current/>` → emit BOTH envelopes (apply rule 1 or 2 below); no payload at all → emit ONLY `<live-context>` (rule 3). Secondary signal: the `<project-context-resolved name="..."/>` sentinel further down the output indicates the project file already has prior content — useful for spotting first-time-in-project pairings, but NOT the routing rule.

**Three rules (D-25.1-01..03):**

- **In-project, both slices populated** (marker present, you have project-specific content this cycle): emit `<live-context>...</live-context>` AND `<project-context>...</project-context>`, both with non-empty bodies.
- **In-project, no project-specific update this cycle** (marker present, but nothing project-bound to report): emit `<live-context>...</live-context>` AND `<project-context></project-context>` (empty body — the deliberate "in-project but quiet" signal per D-25.1-02). Distinguishable from "no project resolved".
- **Outside any tracked project** (marker absent): emit ONLY `<live-context>...</live-context>`. Do NOT emit an empty `<project-context>` envelope (missing tag means "no project resolved" per D-25.1-03).

**Nested envelopes.** The Phase 23 `<EVENT type="commune">` envelope (see `## Envelope shape (Phase 23 v1.8)` below) is composed by `$LIVE commune` automatically — you NEVER write `<EVENT>` tags. You write ONLY the inner two-slice body. The two envelope layers nest: outer EVENT wraps inner two-slice body.

(See `psyche.md` §`<output_envelope>` for the canonical taxonomy and per-slice content rules.)

## Envelope shape (Phase 23 v1.8)

As of v1.8 Phase 23, commune deliveries are wrapped in a typed EVENT envelope carrying a 5-field stamp (`machine`, `project`, `branch`, `head_sha`, `head_subject`); the prose `COMMUNE (timestamp): body` form is gone.

```xml
<EVENT type="commune" timestamp="2026-05-20T06:00:00-07:00" machine="hostname" project="claude_skill_owl" branch="main" head_sha="abc123..." head_subject="subject line capped at 72 chars">body</EVENT>
```

Outside a git repo (D-11), `branch`, `head_sha`, and `head_subject` are omitted entirely (not empty-string-set):

```xml
<EVENT type="commune" timestamp="2026-05-20T06:00:00-07:00" machine="hostname" project="cwd-basename">body</EVENT>
```

`$LIVE commune` composes this envelope automatically — Self does NOT manually construct EVENT XML. The `body` placeholder in the example above is the two-slice body (see `## Two-slice body shape (Phase 25 D-10/D-11)` above); the two envelope layers nest. The wrapper-side parser ignores unknown attrs, so the stamp fields are forward-compatible with older receivers. For drift detection on resume, see the `live` skill.

Generation 55. Pulse 2026-06-17T01:09:37Z. Head 3547a17 on v0.8.2-templating-residency. **F-010 regression fixed + re-spun. Awaiting CI completion (run 27658850682, @3547a17).**

## v0.8.0 + v0.8.1: COMPLETE (counters 15/17)

## v0.8.2: GATE RE-ENTERING (PR #18 @3547a17)
**F-009 TEMPLATE-ARGV-FILL**: ✓ final, gate green.

**F-010 LIVEHOST-NONRESIDENT**: ✓ regression diagnosed + fixed.
- Regression: `daemon_lifecycle_real_brain` E2E fixture failed post-merge. NOOP fast-exit psyche broke host residency logic — pulse driver torn down before commune ingest.
- Root cause: fixture exited too fast; resident perch pid check failed.
- Fix: long-lived blocking psyche + scoped reap. Fixture now runs ~13s waiting for resident check (timing-independent via long-lived listener + reconcile tick).
- Applied @3547a17; full local gate green (clippy, traceable, fixed test 6.21s, both E2Es).

**Gating lesson** (new): shared-seam changes (trait/module touching both branches) require ALL seam-tests, not module-filtered runs. Captured in memory.

## Next
CI completes (run 27658850682) → both runners green → doyle re-gates → deployah counter 18 → perri unblock + dogfooding resume. Monitor for notify-shell curl flake (rerun --failed; FLAKE-LEDGER #8).<project-context-resolved name="spt-core"/>
**F-010 fix delta**: `daemon_lifecycle_real_brain` test was timing-sensitive post-residency-check; fixture psyche exited immediately, failing host-alive probe. Now uses indefinite shell blocker (long-lived resident psyche) + scoped reap; waits 13s (past 5s grace + reconcile tick) for resident perch pid, checks is_process_alive, asserts parent psyche_host_error None. Timing-independent.

Code @3547a17 pushed; local validation complete (test 6.21s pass, both E2Es green, 7 livehost units passing). Awaiting CI run 27658850682 completion for doyle gate.

Psyche is at gen-55, "awaiting CI." The delta = the resolution (CI green → re-gate PASS → release GO → stood down) + the resume pointer + end-goal summary the operator asked for. In-project (`project="spt-core"`) → both slices. Writing the commune:

6	- [F-007 live-relay acceptance ruling](f007-live-relay-acceptance.md) — live bringup = persistent `api listen <id>` via Monitor (heir to legacy $LIVE start), NOT `--once` (no-Monitor degenerate) nor $OWL listen (ready); psyche-spawn gated on `--manifest` (declares psyche_init, fires regardless of --once) + the v0.7.4 install-dir binary fix (REQ-INSTALL-11) for bare psyche binaries; both F-007 items Bucket 2 docs gap. Lesson: ground in CONTEXT.md before ruling (I erred recommending --once)
7	- [delegate-build preflight hang](delegate-build-preflight-hang.md) — background build agents hang silently on the full spt-daemon/spt integration suite in preflight (no completion notification on hang); instruct targeted units only (`--lib` + named tests); check liveness via transcript mtime, TaskStop the stalled one, take ownership of the (usually good) partial work + verify
8	- [don't wait — proceed autonomously](dont-wait-proceed-autonomously.md) — operator 2026-06-14: don't stop to ask permission between steps; chain next action (ping/commit gated batch/next wave). After doyle W4 gate-PASS, commit myself
9	- [alarm port deferred — arrangement system](alarm-port-deferred-arrangement.md) — /spt:new-alarm durable scheduler = ACCEPTED parity gap, stays DEFERRED (DEFERRED.md:43, ADR-0018 Q4/V3). spt-core has alarm shape+relay only; real timer in legacy owl in-mem. Operator 2026-06-15: keep deferred, a superseding "arrangement" system is coming (not ready to discuss). Don't dispatch the port, don't build an adapter stopgap. perri logs it as known gap
10	- [broker is daemon state anchor](broker-is-daemon-state-anchor.md) — post-ADR-0018 the BROKER (not restartable brain child) is the always-up CLI-reachable daemon-lifetime anchor (serves all sockets, "brain restart loses nothing", holds DigestHub); place ephemeral in-mem daemon state there. My M11-W2 drive-slot gate said "brain" — wrong word, functional spec = broker; todlando caught it. Drive no-replay needs link-gen stamping (clear-on-link-break not crash-robust alone)
11	- [adapter add --release archive](adapter-add-release-archive.md) — `spt adapter add --release <user/repo> [--tag]` (REQ-INSTALL-9, @94bda1e, operator-directed doyle build): fetches a `.spt` tar from a GitHub release, extracts (system tar, no new dep), registers root. Closes perri's monorepo --github gap (--github is root-only). Trusts HTTPS+GitHub; does NOT change the [update] ripple route (acquisition only). Docs live; perri directed
12	- [adapter tips → published docs](adapter-tips-published-docs.md) — synthesized perri's SPT_HARNESS_ADAPTER_TIPS.md into a NEW harness-agnostic docs-site page harness-contract/patterns.md ("Adapter patterns & pitfalls"); generalized all [CC] specifics, zero leakage; published live to GH-Pages via `gh workflow run docs-publish.yml --ref main` (fires on tags/dispatch only, NOT main push). Pre-flight: xtask check + xtask site
13	- [how-to subnet → W5 scope](howto-subnet-w5-scope.md) — perri found `spt how-to subnet` dead-ends (NO_SUCH_TOPIC); HOW_TO_TOPICS locked to ready/send (v1, M7 decision 12). Genuine REQ-DOCS-6 content gap. doyle ACCEPTED → scheduled M11-W5 docs wave (HOW_TO_SUBNET text + registry + bump v1-lock test). Confirm landed at W5 gate
14	- [M11 COMPLETE](m11-complete.md) — shell-substrate milestone done end-to-end (W1 consent · W2 drive · W3 tunnel-same-node · W4 gateway capstone · W5 rig+docs), all doyle GATE PASS. PR #16 @c5887db UNMERGED until the operator-gated M11 release (merge+bump+tag, doyle lines up GO). Cross-node tunnel DEFERRED. HOLDING for release ping
15	- [M11-W4 progress](m11-w4-progress.md) — Gateway-owner shell capstone (REQ-SHELL-5, proof-not-change, ZERO prod diff): built (int gateway_owner_shell_e2e + linkhost unit, same-type-diff-id negative), doyle code-read PASS + tree-identity = PRE-CLEARED, only CI green left. CI saga: branch unmergeable vs advanced main → 0 pull_request runs → merged main in (HEAD 63a5d3e, v0.7.3). Supersedes W3
16	- [twohost rig runs notify REAL mode](twohost-rig-real-notify-mode.md) — the [twohost] rig sets SPT_TWO_HOST_NOTIFY_BIN → notify-shell resident → notify-0 ONLINE (fallback/local = noop offline). M11-W5 first-fire: the W2 drive-DROP rung asserted offline against notify-0 → it was ONLINE → drive DELIVERED (live slot) not dropped → RED. Use a deterministically-offline noop shell for drop proofs. A [twohost]-gated rung never fired = UNPROVEN regardless of green normal CI
17	- [unmergeable PR blocks CI](unmergeable-pr-blocks-ci.md) — push yields NO pull_request run + 0 checks + runners idle = UNMERGEABLE PR (GitHub can't compute merge ref), NOT a webhook drop. Diagnose: `gh pr view --json mergeable` + `git rev-list --count HEAD..origin/main`. Fix: merge main in (union append-docs, regen derived). Empty-commit/reopen nudges DON'T fix it. Check mergeability FIRST
18	- [M11-W3 progress](m11-w3-progress.md) — shell TUNNEL (REQ-SHELL-4): doyle design-gate GO; manifest opt-in + broker TunnelHub registry + close-hook LANDED on branch; NEXT = open-hook + the QUIC-stream↔`api tunnel` bridge (dispatch first-record demux + serve_tunnel relay loop), then T3.3 same-node mock E2E. Full next-step detail in the file
19	- [M11-W2 progress](m11-w2-progress.md) — drive channel (REQ-SHELL-3): ALL 4 tasks DONE + PUSHED to PR #16 (T2.1 b919dfd / T2.2 0557bc6 / T2.3 d200524 / T2.4 13fa53e + drift-fix 9d5fb63). REQ-SHELL-3 activated [impl,unit,int]. CI re-running post-drift-fix (run 27590716942); on green → submit W2 to doyle. Full detail in Psyche commune

Commune written to `.claude/todlando-commune.md` (two-slice: live + project, both populated — in-project `spt-core`). My Self listener ingests it on its next poll, then deletes the file.

**Session closed. v0.8.2 gated + shipping.**

Communed delta + the summary you asked for:
- **Immediate next steps (resume):** check v0.8.2 published (counter 18) + perri's next dogfood report; run any new F-NNN through the loop (perri gap → doyle design → I build → doyle gate → deployah ship); pending rider = add `.no_window()` to `daemon_lifecycle_real_brain` `kill_pid` next time I touch spt-daemon tests.
- **Status:** v0.8.0 (16) + v0.8.1 (17) published; **v0.8.2 (18, PATCH) = doyle RE-GATE PASS @3547a17, CI green both runners, deployah has the GO** — publish pending. Deferred (no scope-creep): perri's peer-pump STALL (likely REQ-DAEMON-9), investigate separately.
- **End goal:** spt-core = harness-independent agent-ecosystem core (clean-room rebuild of legacy owl). Current phase = perri-dogfood hardening → spt-claude-code reaches legacy parity → plugin name `sptc`→`spt` → legacy owl retires.

Nothing pending on my side — I stood down to deployah; doyle pings perri on publish. Resume whenever.
