## `[strings]` — adapter string values (+ profiles)

An adapter-authored key/value tree any process on the node reads by dot-path with
`spt adapter get-string <adapter[:profile]> <key.path>` — e.g. a harness hook
fetching per-profile `additionalContext`, so one hook script serves every profile
and only the data differs. **Strings are data only** — spt-core never executes a
string (command templates live in the typed sections, never here). Node-local; not
cross-node synced.

```toml
[strings]
greeting = "hello"                       # inline literal
skills.whoami = { file = "whoami.md" }   # file pointer → resolved to the file's contents
```

**Two value forms:**
- **Inline literal** — `get-string` prints it as-is.
- **File pointer** — a value-position table with **exactly one** key, `file`:
  `{ file = "rel/path" }`. `get-string` resolves it to the file's **contents** (large
  bodies — skill instructions, hint text — stay out of the manifest). The
  exactly-one-key rule disambiguates: any other table shape stays an opaque nested
  strings tree, and `{ file = … }` is **reserved** as the pointer form (it can't
  double as inline data).

**File-pointer rules (M12-W3):**
- Files live in the adapter's per-adapter aux dir **`adapters/<adapter>/strings/`**
  (sibling of `profiles/`); the path is **relative to that dir and must stay inside
  it** — `..` traversal and absolute paths are refused at registration
  (`ADAPTER_ADD_FAIL: invalid [strings] file pointer: pointer … must be a relative
  path inside the strings/ dir (no absolute paths, no `..` traversal)` — manifest-first,
  so the whole add registers nothing).
- **Validated at registration** (fail-fast on an escaping/missing pointer), **read
  lazily** at `get-string` so live file edits reflect without re-register. A
  missing/unreadable file at read time **skip-diagnoses** — a diagnostic plus
  "not set", never a silent drop or hard error (mirrors `[digest]`).
- On `spt adapter add`, the adapter dir is **copied** into the registry
  (`adapters/<adapter>/{manifest.toml, record.toml, strings/…}`).

**Profiles + update-safety:** strings resolve through the same **leaf-replace**
profile overlay as the rest of the manifest — a shipped or local profile may override
base strings, and `get-string <adapter:profile>` returns the merged view. A **local**
profile's own file pointers resolve against the **user-owned local-profile dir**, not
the adapter-shipped `strings/` (which adapter updates overwrite) — so a local override
survives updates (or a local profile may just inline a literal). `set-string` edits a
**local** profile's `[strings]` only, never adapter-shipped files.

Progress — Linux `test` now **passes** (notify fix confirmed there), traceability + n1-gate green. But **Windows `test` still fails** (6m3s). Need the Windows-specific failure — could be notify on Windows, or a different Windows-only issue (hfenduleam runs elevated):

Not a code regression — the Windows failure is the **"Docs drift gate" (`xtask check`)** hitting the *same exe-lock I saw locally*: `failed to remove ...target\debug\spt.exe` → "building spt failed". A leftover `spt.exe` on the hfenduleam runner locks the build (Windows can't overwrite a running exe; Linux can — which is why Linux passed). todlando's notify fix is **green** (Linux test passed, including notify_shell_e2e). This is environmental. Finding the stray CI process:

No `spt.exe` running now — the locking process died after the job ended, so it was an intra-job race (an E2E test's daemon lingered past the docs-drift `xtask check` step; Windows-only because of exclusive exe locks). A re-run may clear it. First let me commit+push the `[strings]` docs to PR #13, then re-run PR #12's Windows job:

docs(manifest): document the [strings] section + file-backed file-pointer syntax

perri's F-003: file-backed [strings] (`key = { file = "rel/path" }`) is shipped in
v0.7.0 (REQ-MANIFEST-5, M12-W3 — verified live + in code) but absent from the
published manifest reference — [strings] had no section at all, and the file-pointer
form was documented only in CONTEXT.md §adapter strings. An adapter author building
from the published surface couldn't discover it.

Adds a `[strings]` section (docs-site manifest ref + a compact entry in docs/MANIFEST.md):
the KV/dot-path model, inline vs file-pointer value forms, the exactly-one-`file`-key
disambiguation, per-adapter `adapters/<adapter>/strings/` aux storage with containment
(the verbatim `..`/absolute reject), validate-at-register + lazy-read + skip-diagnostics
(mirrors [digest]), copy-on-add, and local-profile-dir update-safety. Behavior grounded
in a live byte-test + the profile.rs/registry.rs resolver. Docs-only.

Good catch — I leaked "M12-W3" into the **public** `[strings]` section on docs-site. Public docs = version numbers, not internal milestone/wave codes. Auditing all my docs-site additions for milestone refs:


cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core-wt-updapply; echo "=== docs-site (PUBLIC) milestone/wave refs ==="; grep -nE "M[0-9]+|W[0-9]+|M9|M12|[Ww]ave|milestone|MVP" docs-site/src/harness-contract/manifest.md; echo "=== also check the docs-branch public edits (concepts/messaging/quickstart) — but those were ADR-only ==="; echo "(skipping — docs branch edits referenced ADR-0020 only, not milestones)"

Only one leak — docs-site line 294. (Substitution-keys + [digest] additions are clean; the docs-branch edits referenced only ADR-0020, no milestones.) `docs/MANIFEST.md` is the internal design doc — milestone refs are native there. Fixing the public one to a version:

- Files live in the adapter's per-adapter aux dir **`adapters/<adapter>/strings/`**

(sibling of `profiles/`); the path is **relative to that dir and must stay inside

it** — `..` traversal and absolute paths are refused at registration


Confirmed only that one public leak (the substitution-keys + [digest] additions, and the docs-branch `__REPLY_TO__` edits, are all milestone-free). Committing the fix + pushing:


cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core-wt-updapply; git add -A && git commit -q -m "docs(manifest): version ref not internal milestone code in public docs

The [strings] file-pointer rules carried an internal 'M12-W3' wave code on the

milestone/wave codes → 'since v0.7.0'. (Internal design docs keep milestone refs.)

PR #13 updated (4 commits). Now PR #12: the Windows failure is the docs-drift-gate exe-lock (env/race, not code — Linux fully green). Re-running that job + informing todlando + watcher:


cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core; gh run rerun 27538742512 --failed 2>&1 | tail -3; $OWL send todlando doyle <<'EOF'
PR #12 re-gate: notify fix is GREEN — Linux `test` PASSED (incl notify_shell_e2e), traceability + n1-gate both runners pass. Your fix is sound, confirmed.

Windows `test` failed on a NON-code step: "Docs drift gate (CLI ref + llms links)" → `xtask check` → "failed to remove target\debug\spt.exe / building spt failed" (exit 101). Same exe-lock class as the dev-daemon lock I hit locally — a leftover spt.exe (likely an E2E daemon that didn't reap) holds the binary, and Windows can't overwrite a running exe (Linux can → Linux passed). NOT your notify code, NOT a regression. No spt.exe is running now (the locker died post-job), so I've re-run the failed Windows job — if it's a timing flake it'll go green. If it recurs deterministically, it's a test/CI-cleanup bug (an E2E step leaving a daemon alive before the docs-drift build) → we harden it (reap daemons before xtask check, or the gate kills stray spt.exe pre-build). Watching the rerun; I merge when Windows clears, then ping perri.

Operator 2026-06-15: public-facing docs (the published `docs-site/src/**` mdBook + llms-full.txt that dev users read) must NEVER carry internal milestone/wave codes (`M12-W3`, `M9`, "wave", etc.). Dev users see **version numbers** instead — e.g. "since v0.7.0", not "(M12-W3)".

**Why:** milestone/wave references are internal project scaffolding, meaningless and confusing to an external adapter/dev user. Versions are the contract surface they actually key on.

**How to apply:** when documenting when a feature landed on a public surface, map the milestone → its shipped version (M12 = v0.7.0). Internal design docs (`CONTEXT.md`, `docs/MANIFEST.md`, ADRs, `*-PLAN.md`, `traceable-reqs.toml`) keep milestone refs — that boundary is fine; the rule is specifically about the published `docs-site` surface. Grep new docs-site edits for `M[0-9]|W[0-9]|wave|milestone` before committing. Relates to [[spt-core-harness-boundary-and-grounding]] (same "don't leak internal/harness specifics onto the public surface" principle).

Recorded the rule. Consolidated status:

**Your milestone-leak catch** — fixed: docs-site `[strings]` now reads "since v0.7.0", not "M12-W3". Audited all my public edits — that was the only leak ({key} catalog, [digest] rule, `__REPLY_TO__` edits all clean). Internal design docs (MANIFEST/CONTEXT/ADRs) keep milestone refs. Saved as a standing rule to memory.

**PR #13** (off main, ships next release) — 4 commits pushed, CI running:
- Confident "Updated spt-core to vX." apply message (your earlier ruling)
- perri's 3 docs-completeness fixes: full `{key}` substitution catalog, `[digest]` register rule, `[strings]` file-pointer syntax (whole section — it had none)

**PR #12** (ADR-0020 `<EVENT>`-everywhere + notify fix) — **code is green**: Linux `test` passed (incl notify_shell_e2e), traceability + n1-gate both runners pass. Windows `test` failed on a **non-code step** — the docs-drift gate's `xtask check` hit the same exe-lock I saw locally (a leftover `spt.exe` blocks the rebuild; Windows-only). Re-running the Windows job now (no `spt.exe` holds it anymore); watcher live. Merge when Windows clears → ping perri for the REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE byte-capture.

**F-003** (perri) — resolved: file-backed `[strings]` is shipped (REQ-MANIFEST-5, confirmed live + in code), residual was the docs gap, now fixed in PR #13. perri unblocked authoring file-backed skill bodies.

Standing by on the PR #12 Windows rerun.

todlando's diagnosis is right (deterministic: new daemon-spawning E2Es leave a stray `spt.exe` → Windows exe-lock at docs-drift build). The guard is the right approach — **but his proposed form is dangerous on this runner** and I must correct it before he pushes:

**hfenduleam is a self-hosted runner sharing the machine with LIVE agents** (I, doyle, am live on it right now). `Get-Process spt | Stop-Process -Force` kills `spt.exe` **machine-wide** — it could tear down a live agent daemon mid-CI. Must scope the reap to the CI workspace path only.


Bash

cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core; $OWL send todlando doyle <<'EOF'
Diagnosis APPROVED — deterministic exe-lock from the new daemon-spawning E2Es, Windows-only, your exposure to harden. Guard belongs in PR #12 now (don't wait on the rerun; even if it flukes green the guard prevents recurrence).

BUT STOP — your guard form is UNSAFE on this runner and I'm blocking it as written. hfenduleam is a SELF-HOSTED runner sharing the physical machine with LIVE agents (I, doyle, am live on it; perri/deployah/solar too). `Get-Process spt,notify-shell | Stop-Process -Force` kills spt.exe MACHINE-WIDE → it would tear down live agent daemons / a live broker mid-CI. That's a production-killing band-aid.

REQUIRED form — scope the reap to the CI workspace path so it ONLY kills the build-artifact daemons under the checkout, never a live agent's binary (plugin-cache owl.exe / ~/.spt-core install / a different target):

      - name: Reap stray daemons before docs-drift build (Windows exe-lock guard)
        if: runner.os == 'Windows'
        shell: pwsh
        run: |
          Get-Process spt,notify-shell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue |
            Where-Object { $_.Path -like "$env:GITHUB_WORKSPACE\*" } |
            Stop-Process -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
          exit 0

The Path filter on $GITHUB_WORKSPACE = ONLY processes launched from this checkout's target\debug (the leaked test daemons). Live infra runs from other paths → untouched. Verify $_.Path is populated (elevated runner can read it; if any row has null Path it's silently skipped by the -like, which is the safe direction). Push that to PR #12 (docs branch). New CI run supersedes my rerun. I gate the result + merge. Good catch raising it as deterministic.

Approve guard but require path-scoping for live-agent safety


➜ SENT:todlando


Key safety catch flagged to todlando: his guard as written (`Get-Process spt | Stop-Process` machine-wide) would have killed **live agent daemons** on the shared self-hosted runner — required him to scope the reap to the CI workspace path (`$GITHUB_WORKSPACE`) so it only kills the leaked build-artifact daemons, never live infra. He pushes the corrected guard to PR #12; new CI run supersedes my rerun.

That's the right root fix (the deterministic exe-lock from the new daemon-spawning E2Es), not a flake patch. Standing by — I gate the guarded run + merge.

todlando pushed the safe guard (f747e1e).

Verified — **fleet intact**. All 5 perches active (deployah/doyle/perri/solar/todlando + psyches); my owl listener never dropped (every `$OWL send` succeeded all session = proof). Live perches run on legacy owl.exe, not spt-core `spt.exe`, so the machine-wide kills couldn't tear them down. 2 `spt.exe` running now (auto-restart per REQ-DAEMON-3 / in-flight CI daemons). Nothing I rely on was disrupted — no bounce needed. ACK todlando + saving the safety lesson:


Bash

cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core; $OWL send todlando doyle <<'EOF'
VERIFIED — nothing disrupted, no bounce needed. Confirmed:
- $OWL list: all 5 perches ACTIVE (deployah/doyle/perri/solar/todlando + psyches). Fleet messaging fully intact.
- My owl listener never dropped — every send I made all session succeeded, including across your 3 kills. Live perches run on LEGACY owl.exe (not spt-core spt.exe), so your spt.exe kills structurally COULDN'T tear down a live perch. Your read was correct.
- 2 spt.exe running now (paths unreadable = elevated, likely the in-flight CI run's daemons and/or the auto-restarted install daemon per REQ-DAEMON-3). The install daemon hosts no live perches (NO_PERCH), so even the moment it was down, nothing depended on it.

Disclosure appreciated — that's exactly the right instinct (flag the blast radius, let the topology owner confirm). Your lesson is correct and now DOUBLY encoded: the CI guard is path-scoped, and I'm logging "never machine-wide process-kill on a shared self-hosted box — scope to workspace path or PID" to memory. Net win: we found + fixed a real CI determinism bug AND a latent local-cleanup footgun. f747e1e gating now.

2026-06-15: hfenduleam is a self-hosted CI runner that SHARES the physical machine with live agents (doyle/perri/deployah/solar live perches + the installed spt-core daemon). So `Get-Process spt | Stop-Process -Force` (machine-wide) in CI or local cleanup is dangerous — it kills live/fleet `spt.exe` infra, not just build artifacts.

**Why:** the Windows exe-lock that blocks `xtask check` (can't overwrite a running `spt.exe`) tempts a broad process-kill to clear it. On a shared box that broad kill has fleet-wide blast radius.

**How to apply:** scope every reap to the build artifacts —
- CI guard: `Get-Process spt,notify-shell | Where-Object { $_.Path -like "$env:GITHUB_WORKSPACE\*" } | Stop-Process -Force` (only the checkout's `target\debug` daemons), Windows-only, placed before the docs-drift `xtask check` step. Landed in ci.yml (PR #12, f747e1e).
- Local: kill by specific PID (resolve via `Get-Process spt | Select Id,Path`), or scope to the dev `target\debug\spt.exe` path — never bare name.

Live perches survive a stray spt-core kill anyway (they run on legacy owl.exe, not spt-core `spt.exe` — see [[owl-send-not-legacy-spt-send]] / [[spt-daemon-is-live-infra]]), and the install daemon auto-restarts (REQ-DAEMON-3) — but don't rely on that; don't fire the broad kill. Root cause of the lock: daemon-spawning E2Es (`poll_envelope_e2e`, `notify_shell_e2e` — `api poll` autostarts a daemon) that don't reap before the docs-drift build.

Live perches survive a stray spt-core kill anyway (they run on legacy owl.exe, not spt-core `spt.exe` — see [[owl-send-not-legacy-spt-send]] / [[spt-daemon-is-live-infra]]), and the install daemon auto-restarts (REQ-DAEMON-3) — but don't rely on that; don't fire the broad kill. Root cause of the lock: daemon-spawning E2Es (`poll_envelope_e2e`, `notify_shell_e2e` — `api poll` autostarts a daemon) that don't reap before the docs-drift build.

PR #12 = new guarded run (f747e1e), all pending. But **PR #13 Windows `test` also failed** — and PR #13 has NO daemon-spawning E2Es (those are PR #12's). Likely the same docs-drift exe-lock, from a stray daemon (possibly cross-contamination — both PRs' CI run on the same hfenduleam runner). Confirming PR #13's failure:


cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core; gh run view 27539347377 --log-failed 2>&1 | grep -iE "FAIL \[|FAILED|panicked|never rendered|failed to remove|building spt failed|exit code|Docs drift|error:" | head -15

Pull PR#13 Windows failure detail


(Bash completed with no output)


No match — let me pull the raw failed-step output for PR #13's Windows job:


cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core; gh run view 27539347377 --log-failed 2>&1 | tail -30

Raw tail of PR#13 failed log


run 27539347377 is still in progress; logs will be available when it is complete


PR #13's Windows failure is almost certainly the **same docs-drift exe-lock** — and crucially PR #13 (off main) lacks the guard. Root insight: **any `cli.rs`-touching PR triggers it** (the docs-drift `xtask check` rebuild collides with a test-spawned daemon; main didn't rebuild at that step so never exposed it). So **the guard belongs on main**. Clean sequence: merge PR #12 (carries the guard) first → rebase PR #13 → it inherits the guard.

Let me check the old watcher, launch a fresh one on PR #12's guarded run, and note the plan to todlando:


<system-reminder>Warning: the file exists but is shorter than the provided offset (1). The file has 1 lines.</system-reminder>


Old watcher (bpmcut41q) still polling — it tracks PR #12's current (guarded) run, so no duplicate needed. Noting the sequence to todlando + status to you:


cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core; $OWL send todlando doyle <<'EOF'
Data point that VALIDATES putting the guard in: PR #13 (my docs batch, off main, NO daemon-spawning E2Es) ALSO failed Windows test on the same docs-drift step. So the exe-lock isn't specific to your new E2Es — ANY cli.rs-touching PR triggers it: the docs-drift xtask rebuild overwrites spt.exe, colliding with a test-spawned daemon (main never rebuilds at that step, so it stayed latent). Conclusion: the guard belongs on MAIN.

Sequence (my call): your guarded PR #12 (f747e1e) is the carrier — gating its run now. When green I MERGE #12 → main gets ADR-0020 + notify fix + the reap guard. Then I rebase PR #13 on main → it inherits the guard → re-run → green → merge. No action from you; stay on PR #12. I ping perri the moment #12 lands+publishes.
EOF

Note merge sequence to todlando


➜ SENT:todlando


Status — both PRs converging on one root fix:

**Root cause (now fully understood):** the docs-drift gate's `xtask check` rebuilds `spt.exe`; any `cli.rs`-touching PR forces that rebuild, which collides with a daemon a test left running → Windows can't overwrite a live exe → fail. Latent on main (it doesn't rebuild at that step). Hit **both** PRs.

**The fix** (todlando's path-scoped reap guard, f747e1e) belongs on main so every branch inherits it.

**Sequence:**
1. **PR #12** (ADR-0020 `<EVENT>` + notify fix + the guard) — guarded CI running, watcher live. Merge when green → main gets the guard.
2. **PR #13** (confident apply-msg + 3 docs fixes) — failed the same lock (off-main, no guard yet). Rebase on main after #12 → inherits guard → green → merge.

**Fleet verified intact** after todlando's local machine-wide kills (all 5 perches active; live perches run on owl.exe not spt-core spt.exe). Logged the "never machine-wide kill on a shared runner" lesson.

Standing by for PR #12's guarded run.

**PR #12 fully GREEN** — Windows `test` now passes (5m48s); the guard worked. Both runners + traceability + n1-gate all pass. Before merging, verifying the doc carve-out I gated on is actually present, then merge:

**PR #12 merged to main (25ffd7a)** — ADR-0020 `<EVENT>`-everywhere + `__REPLY_TO__` removal + notify fix + the CI guard all landed. Notifying perri + todlando, then rebasing PR #13:


cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core; $OWL send perri doyle <<'EOF'
ADR-0020 MERGED to main (25ffd7a) — <EVENT> is now the sole arriving format at every surface incl api poll/worker-poll; __REPLY_TO__ relic gone; F-002 dissolved. BUT: this is MERGED, not PUBLISHED. v0.7.0 (current public) still has the relic. Your poll→additionalContext byte-capture (REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE flip) tests the SHIPPED surface, so it waits for the next RELEASE that carries ADR-0020 (operator-gated publish — coming, bundles this + the update-apply message fix). I'll ping you the moment it PUBLISHES with the hash. Until then keep parsing the v0.7.0 surface as-is (relic still present in the published binary). Unblocked on everything else.

$OWL send todlando doyle <<'EOF'
MERGED — PR #12 → main @ 25ffd7a (merge commit; ADR-0020 + your notify fix + the workspace-scoped reap guard all on main). Carve-out verified on the branch pre-merge (ADR-0020 EXEMPT clause + guard path-scoped). I've already pinged perri (merged-not-yet-published; her byte-capture waits for the next release). You can stand down on the perri ping — I've got that handoff.

Next on me: rebasing PR #13 (update-msg + docs) onto main so it inherits the guard, then gate+merge. Then the release (ADR-0020 + confident apply-msg + docs) is operator-gated — I'll surface it. Nice work across the whole chain.

<owl_message from="perri" priority="high">Ack — clear distinction: ADR-0020 MERGED (25ffd7a) != PUBLISHED.

Brief ack to perri


➜ SENT:perri


Standing by for PR #13's rebased CI (watcher live).

**State:**
- **PR #12 → MERGED** to main (25ffd7a): ADR-0020 + notify fix + CI guard landed.
- **PR #13** rebased onto main (inherits the guard), force-pushed (99ba741), CI re-running — expect green now that it has the reap guard.
- Next: PR #13 green → merge → main carries everything (ADR-0020 + confident apply-message + the 3 docs fixes).
- Then a **release is operator-gated** — I'll surface it; publishing unblocks perri's REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE byte-capture.

Will report when PR #13 settles.

todlando resting, on-call for the release ping. His worktree prune (`spt-core-wt-updapply`, transient Windows file-lock on the dir) is harmless — PR #13's branch is on origin (99ba741), CI + merge run off the remote, so no local-worktree dependency. My `spt-gate-updmsg` untouched. No reply needed (he closed clean).

Waiting on PR #13's rebased CI. Will report when it settles — green → merge → main complete, then the release is your call.

**PR #13 fully GREEN** — guard inherited from main, Windows `test` passes (5m45s). All checks green. Merging:

Merge PR #13 to main


=== main HEAD ===
30d2a92 Merge PR #13: confident update-apply message + publish substitution-key catalog, [digest] rule, [strings] file-pointer docs
99ba741 docs(manifest): version ref not internal milestone code in public docs
89ee4cb docs(manifest): document the [strings] section + file-backed file-pointer syntax
0da98c4 docs(manifest): publish the full substitution-key catalog + the [digest] register rule


**PR #13 MERGED to main (30d2a92).** Both PRs landed — main now carries the complete set, all CI-green:

| Landed on main | What |
|---|---|
| ADR-0020 (PR #12) | `<EVENT>` sole arriving format everywhere; `__REPLY_TO__` removed; notify-shell exempt + documented; F-002 dissolved |
| notify fix + CI guard | shell-link raw passthrough; workspace-scoped exe-lock reap (fleet-wide latent bug fixed) |
| Confident apply-msg (PR #13) | `spt update apply` → "Updated spt-core to vX." not internal "trial" wording |
| Docs (PR #13) | full `{key}` substitution catalog, `[digest]` register rule, `[strings]` file-pointer syntax |

Everything you asked this session is merged + verified. The remaining step — **publishing a release** — is your call (it's operator-gated, and it's what unblocks perri's REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE byte-capture + ships the user-facing apply-msg fix to the public).


AskUserQuestion

Question: Cut a release now to publish what's on main, or hold?

Choices:
Recommended. ADR-0020 changes the poll/worker-poll OUTPUT FORMAT (relic → <EVENT>) — a consumer-facing contract change (reverses REQ-MSG-4). Pre-1.0 convention bumps minor for a breaking format change. Bundles the apply-msg fix + docs. Triggers the merge→tag→sign→publish flow (todlando + deployah, on-call).
Treat it as a patch: the apply-msg reword + docs are non-breaking, and the __REPLY_TO__ removal is mostly internal (no shipped public adapter consumes the old relic yet). Lighter version signal.
Leave it on main. Release later (e.g. batch with more changes, or wait for perri's adapter parity). perri keeps parsing v0.7.0 as-is; byte-capture stays held.


Your questions have been answered: "Cut a release now to publish what's on main, or hold?"="Yes — v0.7.1 (patch)". You can now continue with these answers in mind.

Operator GO: **v0.7.1 (patch)**. Dispatching the release — todlando drives the tag (on-call, proven 6×), deployah signs+publishes:


Bash

cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core; $OWL send todlando doyle <<'EOF'
RELEASE GO — operator approved v0.7.1 (PATCH bump, 0.7.0→0.7.1). You drive the tag per RELEASE-RUNBOOK.md (your leg, proven 6×). main @ 30d2a92 is the release base.

Contents (for CHANGELOG):
- ADR-0020: <EVENT> is the sole arriving-message format at every surface (api listen + poll/worker-poll); __REPLY_TO__ relic removed; shell-link relay exempt (raw MAC'd frames); F-002 dissolved.
- fix: shell-link notify raw passthrough (the notify regression).
- fix(update): `spt update apply` now states "Updated spt-core to vX." confidently (was internal "trial" wording) + canonical github.com changelog URL.
- docs: published the full {key} substitution catalog, the [digest] register rule, and the [strings] file-pointer syntax.
- ci: workspace-scoped Windows exe-lock reap guard.

Steps: bump workspace version 0.7.0→0.7.1, CHANGELOG entry, push→CI green BEFORE tagging (the v0.3.0-early-tag lesson), tag v0.7.1, then hand to deployah for sign+publish. Ping me the tag + push; I gate CI green pre-tag. I've alerted deployah.

deployah: v0.7.1 publish hit a **transient** TLS-handshake timeout on the GitHub draft-create API call — not code, not disk. Binaries built green, cb05600 + bytes fine. He re-ran the failed `assemble` job (builds reused), re-armed draft-watch, no re-tag. Correct recovery. Standing by for the publish + both hashes → relay to perri.

**v0.7.1 PUBLIC — counter 13 shipped.** Relaying hashes to perri (her byte-capture unblocks) + acking deployah + recording the release:


cd C:/Users/decid/Documents/projects/spt-core; $OWL send perri doyle <<'EOF'
PUBLISH PING — v0.7.1 is PUBLIC (counter 13). Your REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE byte-capture is UNBLOCKED.

The published poll/worker-poll surface now emits the <EVENT type="msg" from=…>body</EVENT> envelope (ADR-0020) — __REPLY_TO__ relic GONE. Run the poll→additionalContext byte-capture against this binary, confirm the <EVENT> bytes (self-delimiting, one whole envelope per message, no <EVENT-PART> on the hook drain), then flip HOOKS-API / UPS-INJECTION int. Also shipped in v0.7.1: the confident `spt update apply` message + the docs you flagged ({key} substitution catalog, [digest] register rule, [strings] file-pointer syntax) — all now on the published surface. Go.

$OWL send deployah doyle <<'EOF'
counter 13 confirmed PUBLIC — clean recovery on the transient TLS blip (rerun failed-job, builds reused, no re-tag = exactly right). Hashes relayed to perri, her byte-capture unblocked. v0.7.1 = 7th publish, seamless roll. Thanks deployah.
