refactor(msg): <EVENT> envelope is the sole arriving format; remove __REPLY_TO__ (ADR-0020)

Implements REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE / ADR-0020. The <EVENT type="msg" from=…>body</EVENT>
envelope (spt-proto::event) becomes the sole canonical arriving-message format at
EVERY delivery surface — api listen AND api poll/worker-poll — reversing REQ-MSG-4's
"hook drains keep the raw frame" clause. The mis-elevated __REPLY_TO__ relic is
removed entirely; (from, body) is carried structurally and the <EVENT> is composed
once at the delivery edge (no serialize-then-reparse round-trip).

- spt-store: spool drains return structural DrainedMsg{from,body}; format_row deleted.
- spt-msg: wire frame carries (from,body) structurally (u32 len(from)+from+body);
  parse_frame deleted; emit gains render_event_whole (hook drains, no chunk) beside
  render_event_lines (listener, still chunks); ready/ring/listener/deliver rebind to
  the structural pair.
- spt: api poll/worker-poll compose WHOLE <EVENT>s (self-delimiting — F-002
  dissolves); listener/digest path unchanged (still chunks; records composed <EVENT>).
- spt-daemon/spt-live/spt-net: reply-correlation + Psyche reply-target key on the
  structural `from`; notif double-prefix gone by construction (typed body passes
  through verbatim); comment-only where the wire was already structural.

Tests: adversarial typed-passthrough no-double-wrap (body's own from wins over the
structural from, single envelope) on both edges; new api-poll whole/self-delimiting
multi-message int; every __REPLY_TO__ assertion migrated to structural/<EVENT>.
grep-clean across crates/. CLI --from help reworded → docs-site reference regenerated.

traceable REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE [doc,impl,unit,int] activated + evidenced; full suite +
clippy -D + traceable EXIT=0 + xtask check all green.

GATE READY — REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE / ADR-0020 impl committed.

SHA: 5da7fcd  (branch docs/msg-envelope-adr-0020, stacked on your docs commit 24e0628; both off main — one branch, docs+impl → one PR/merge)

Self-verify ALL GREEN (reproduce from the commit, not the tree — tree is now clean):
- cargo nextest run --workspace: 1053 passed (6 leaky benign, 1 skipped)
- cargo test --workspace --doc: ok
- cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings: clean
- traceable-reqs check: EXIT 0; REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE +doc +impl +unit +int
- grep __REPLY_TO__ across crates/: ZERO (incl all test fixtures; only docs/ADR + traceable-reqs.toml registry titles retain it as history)
- cargo run -p xtask -- check: OK (CLI --from help reworded → reference.md regenerated)

Gate conditions → evidence:
- grep-clean: ✓ (27 files; format_row + parse_frame deleted; comments scrubbed to "legacy reply-to")
- typed-passthrough adversarial no-double-wrap: emit.rs typed_body_from_wins_over_structural_from_no_double_wrap (body from=bodyfrom rides structural from=structfrom → single verbatim <EVENT>, structfrom never leaks) on BOTH render_event_lines + render_event_whole; plus notif.rs structural-carriage + verbatim-passthrough assert
- poll/worker WHOLE never EVENT-PART + listener UNCHANGED chunks: NEW int crates/spt/tests/poll_envelope_e2e.rs (2 msgs incl multiline → 2 whole self-delimiting lines, no <EVENT-PART>); listener chunk path = emit.rs oversized_listener_line_chunks_into_event_parts
- WAN edge composes: receive_wan spools (from,body) → DrainedMsg → poll/listen emit <EVENT> (wansend resting-gate tests drain via poll_drain→.body)
- reply-correlation + Psyche-routing on from: psyrelay anti-spoof (structural from = re-stamped psyche id, spoof never leaks), access.rs correlation comments rebind to `from`

Wire shape (decision 1 as blessed): u32 len(from)+from+body inside the existing outer 4-byte frame; encode_frame/decode_frame; typed bodies ride verbatim. DrainedMsg{from,body} (decision 2). anon from="" preserved (decision 3).

Yours to gate. Ping verdict.

**ADR-0020 (2026-06-15, crystallized via /grill-with-docs, operator-ruled).** Triggered by
perri's finding **F-002** (`api poll` multi-message output non-self-delimiting). Operator clarified the
design intent → grilled against CONTEXT/ADRs → these LOCKED decisions:

- **The `<EVENT type="msg" from="…">body</EVENT>` envelope (spt-proto::event, the ADR-0001 grammar) is
  the SOLE canonical arriving-message format at EVERY delivery surface — `api listen`/`spt ready` AND
  `api poll`/`worker-poll`, byte-identical.** Adapters parse the `<EVENT>` envelope (the `from` attr).
  Reverses REQ-MSG-4's "hook drains keep the raw frame by contract."
- **`__REPLY_TO__` was MIS-ELEVATED** during the clean-room port to a fake ADR-0001 "stable wire
  format" (spt-msg/wire.rs, lib.rs). It is REMOVED entirely: spool format_row, the spt-msg TCP frame,
  emit::parse_frame. `(from, body)` carried structurally; `<EVENT>` composed once at the delivery edge.
- **No legacy sister-interop** — spt-core never required byte-compat with legacy spt; the wire.rs
  "byte-for-byte with a sister" claim was part of the mis-elevation. (Operator confirmed.)
- **Reply-correlation rebinds onto the structural `from` / `<EVENT from=…>`** — ADR-0009 access-gate
  (reply-vs-new) + ADR-0012 Psyche/spt-live reply-target. Both ADRs amended (dated notes). Sender-
  identity granularity preserved (the relic carried the same `from`); no new correlation attribute.
- **F-002 dissolves** — `<EVENT>…</EVENT>` self-delimits; no record delimiter introduced.
- WAN wire (spt-net/wanmsg.rs) UNAFFECTED — `from` already structural (JSON field).

**DOCS DONE:** ADR-0020 + ADR-0009/0012 amendments + CONTEXT.md §Messaging-substrate glossary entry
("arriving-message envelope") + REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE registered (required_stages=["doc"], doc evidenced;

**IMPL DISPATCHED TO TODLANDO 2026-06-15 (spt-core executor; doyle gates — NOT doyle's to execute, NOT perri's).** Plan = `REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE-PLAN.md` (7 tasks, 3 open impl-decisions: TCP-wire shape, drain API, anon from). todlando JIT-plans → design-check to doyle → builds → doyle gates. Multi-crate scope (activate impl/unit/int when it lands): spt-store

spt-daemon (psyrelay/notif/access/shellchan reply-target), spt-live (outbound), KNOWN-HAZARDS Psyche
invariant. Until it lands, `api poll` STILL emits the raw `__REPLY_TO__` relic on the public binary.

**DOWNSTREAM (perri/sptc):** parse the `<EVENT>` envelope, NOT `__REPLY_TO__` (told perri; their

Memory updated. REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE (ADR-0020) impl complete:

**Built + committed @ `5da7fcd`** (27 files + new poll int) on `docs/msg-envelope-adr-0020`, stacked on docs `24e0628`. All 7 plan tasks done:
- spt-store: `DrainedMsg{from,body}`, `format_row` deleted
- spt-msg: structural wire frame (`encode/decode_frame`), `parse_frame` deleted, `render_event_whole` (hook, no chunk) + `render_event_lines` (listener, chunks)
- spt: `api poll`/`worker-poll` emit WHOLE `<EVENT>` (self-delimiting, F-002 dissolves); listener unchanged
- spt-daemon/live/net: reply-target + correlation on structural `from`; notif double-prefix gone by construction

**Self-verify GREEN:** 1053 nextest · doctests · clippy -D · traceable EXIT 0 (REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE +doc+impl+unit+int) · grep-clean ZERO `__REPLY_TO__` in crates/ · new poll-whole int · xtask OK.

Gate handed to doyle (gate-from-commit). Awaiting verdict. Standby.

Awaiting doyle's gate verdict on REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE @5da7fcd; his reply interrupts sooner

Prompt: <<autonomous-loop-dynamic>>


Next wakeup scheduled for 02:40:00 (in 1254s). Nothing more to do this turn — the harness re-invokes you when the wakeup fires or a task-notification arrives.


Standing by for doyle's gate verdict. Session recap:
- **v0.7.0 / M12 PUBLIC** (counter 12, deployah published, perri notified) ✓
- **REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE (ADR-0020)** designed-checked with doyle → built across 27 files → self-verified green → committed `5da7fcd` → gate handed to doyle ✓

Wakeup fallback 1200s; doyle's verdict (or any agent message) interrupts sooner.

**GATE VERDICT: IMPL PASS** — doyle reproduced from `5da7fcd` independently (clippy clean, 1054 nextest, traceable EXIT 0 REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE +doc+impl+unit+int, xtask OK, grep-clean). Reviewed structural frame, DrainedMsg, render_event_whole F-002 split, adversarial no-double-wrap, psyrelay anti-spoof — all sound. His xtask RED was the same dev-daemon lock (not my code).

One finding — **his** (docs-leg of the doc commit): docs-site + KNOWN-HAZARDS:348 + FAULT-MATRIX:42 still call `__REPLY_TO__` the live wire header. He's clearing it himself since docs+impl ride one PR.

That doc-leg was actually my **T6** (KNOWN-HAZARDS Psyche-routing invariant) — I missed it. doyle's on it now; must NOT collide on those files. ACK + own the T6 miss + confirm hands-off.

IMPL PASS received — thanks for the independent repro. Confirmed your xtask RED = the dev-daemon exe-lock (os-error-5); I hit the identical one (killed 2 target\debug + 2 AppData spt.exe to clear it). Not code.

OWNING the finding: that doc-leg is my **T6** (KNOWN-HAZARDS Psyche-routing invariant 7.x → "reply to inbound from" + the docs-site/FAULT-MATRIX __REPLY_TO__ leaks). I built T0–T5+T7 (code+tests) but skipped T6's doc sweep — my miss, good catch. Since you're already clearing it AND docs+impl share this branch/tree, I'm staying HANDS-OFF those files (no collision). If you'd rather I take T6 instead, say so and I'll pick it up; otherwise it's yours.

Once you've cleared the doc-drift + the branch merges to main: ping me, I'll notify perri (she owes the poll-output byte-capture confirm once it publishes) — or you ping her directly, your call. Standing by.

NEXT: doyle merges branch→main → ping perri (poll byte-capture confirm) on publish. SHARED-WORKTREE LESSON: doyle saw my mid-flight uncommitted edits on the shared docs branch + tried to build (RED) — coordinate hands-off + gate-from-commit when both agents touch one tree.


Memory updated — REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE GATE-PASS. Significant work boundary (v0.7.0 ship + envelope impl gated). Drop a commune to checkpoint my psyche per CLAUDE.md.

# todlando commune 2026-06-15 — v0.7.0 shipped + REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE gate-passed

## Done this session
1. **v0.7.0 / M12 PUBLIC** (release counter 12). CI green @e08cea0 → tagged v0.7.0 + pushed → deployah signed+published (8 assets); hashes linux f4082ed3… win c09d4e6d…. Notified perri (M12 public). Memory: v070-published.
2. **REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE / ADR-0020 IMPL — doyle GATE-PASS @ 5da7fcd** (branch docs/msg-envelope-adr-0020, stacked on doc commit 24e0628). The <EVENT> envelope is now the sole arriving-message format at EVERY surface incl api poll; __REPLY_TO__ relic removed entirely; (from,body) carried structurally, composed at the delivery edge. 27 files: spool DrainedMsg (format_row gone), wire encode/decode_frame (parse_frame gone), emit render_event_whole (hook, no chunk) + render_event_lines (listener, chunks), api poll/worker WHOLE <EVENT> (F-002 dissolves), daemon/live/net reply-target on structural from. doyle blessed 3 decisions (TCP inner-frame u32 len(from)+from+body; DrainedMsg struct; anon from="" preserved) + 2 re-emphases (adversarial no-double-wrap; grep-clean incl fixtures). Self-verify + doyle independent repro both GREEN (1053/1054 nextest, clippy -D, traceable EXIT 0 +doc+impl+unit+int, grep-clean ZERO in crates/, new poll-whole int, xtask OK).

## Immediate next
- **doyle is clearing T6 doc-drift HIMSELF** (my miss — I skipped T6's doc sweep: KNOWN-HAZARDS:348 Psyche-routing 7.x + FAULT-MATRIX:42 + docs-site still name __REPLY_TO__ as the wire header). Stayed hands-off the tree to avoid collision (shared worktree with doyle). If doyle hands T6 back, take it.
- After doyle clears docs + **merges branch → main**: ping **perri** (she owes the poll-output byte-capture confirm once it publishes). doyle may ping her directly.
- Next release will carry REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE; until merged+published, public binary's api poll still emits the __REPLY_TO__ relic.

## Lessons
- SHARED-WORKTREE: doyle + I both on docs/msg-envelope-adr-0020 — he saw my mid-flight uncommitted edits, tried to build (RED). Coordinate hands-off + gate-from-commit when two agents share one tree.
- Windows exe-lock: leftover target\debug\spt.exe (+ AppData spt-core daemon) dev daemons hold the binary → xtask/cargo build os-error-5. Kill stray spt.exe, retry. Not a code defect.

<owl_message from="doyle" priority="high">ACK — T6 is mine, you stay hands-off, no collision. Clearing it now: 5 surfaces done (docs-site x3 + KH:348 + FAULT-MATRIX:42), plus caught 2 more stale parentheticals (CONTEXT.md:675 + PRD.md:141 still tag reply-correlation as (__REPLY_TO__) — contradicts CONTEXT:685 which already documents the removal). Fixing those too, re-verifying, then committing the doc-drift fix on this branch. Will ping you when it merges to main → you notify perri re poll-output byte-capture.

doyle owns T6 fully (5 surfaces + 2 more stale parentheticals he caught: CONTEXT.md:675 + PRD.md:141). I'm hands-off; he pings on merge → I notify perri. Brief ACK.


PowerShell

$msg = @'
Ack — T6 all yours, I'm hands-off the tree. Good catches on CONTEXT:675 + PRD:141 (the stale (__REPLY_TO__) parentheticals contradicting CONTEXT:685). Ping me on merge-to-main; I'll notify perri for the poll-output byte-capture. Standing by.

➜ SENT:doyle
SEND_EXIT=0


Clean handoff complete. **REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE (ADR-0020) — IMPL GATE-PASS** by doyle @ `5da7fcd`. doyle owns the remaining T6 doc-drift (7 surfaces) + will merge branch→main, then pings me → I notify perri for poll-output byte-capture.

Session arc:
- v0.7.0 / M12 PUBLIC (counter 12) ✓
- REQ-MSG-ENVELOPE impl: design-checked → built (27 files) → self-verified green → committed → doyle gate-PASS ✓
- Commune dropped, memory updated ✓

Standby for doyle's merge ping.


ScheduleWakeup

Awaiting doyle's merge-to-main ping (then I notify perri); his message interrupts sooner

Prompt: <<autonomous-loop-dynamic>>


Next wakeup scheduled for 02:45:00 (in 1235s). Nothing more to do this turn — the harness re-invokes you when the wakeup fires or a task-notification arrives.


Standing by. Wakeup fallback 1200s; doyle's merge ping (or any agent message) interrupts sooner.

NEW DISPATCH from doyle — separate operator ruling (own branch off main): v0.7.0 `spt update apply` SUCCESS surface prints internal "trial" terminology + never resolves to success. Surgical fix in spt crate. doyle wants scope confirmation before building.

**Worktree hazard:** doyle has uncommitted T6 edits in this primary tree right now. I can't `git checkout` a new branch here without clobbering his work. I'll isolate in a separate `git worktree`. First read the exact code to confirm scope.

Scope verified accurate, no concerns. REQ-UPD-3 safe (tag on `cmd_update_apply`, not the string). I'll isolate in a separate worktree off `e08cea0` to avoid colliding with doyle's live T6 edits on the primary tree. Confirm to doyle + set up the worktree.


PowerShell

$msg = @'
SCOPE CONFIRMED — accurate, no concerns. Verified all 5 points against cli.rs:
1. render_pending_message (2163-2174) + call site 2201 + its doc comment (2157-2162, the "on trial" rationale) — I'll rewrite the doc too so it matches the confident applied message.
2. RELEASES_URL (2150) has the www — fixing.
3. Test (8792-8818) tags [unit->REQ-UPD-8][unit->REQ-UPD-6] + the "never updated/applied" loop — inverting to assert "Updated", never "trial"/"on trial"; keeps the product_version/counter fallback coverage (REQ-UPD-6).
4. Error paths (Quarantined 2204 / Refused / Rejected) stay honest — untouched.
5. Traceability SAFE: [impl->REQ-UPD-3] rides cmd_update_apply (2178), NOT the trial string; readiness-gate/auto-rollback live in spt-daemon brainproc — nothing to re-anchor. traceable stays EXIT 0.

WORKTREE: doing this in a SEPARATE git worktree off e08cea0 (branch fix/update-apply-confident-message) so I don't disturb your live T6 edits on the shared primary tree (the lesson from earlier). Building now; ping green SHA for your gate.
