# Phase 25.3: project-context envelope persistence + encoding defects — Verification Report (RE-VERIFICATION after gap closure)

**Phase Goal:** Resolve three defects (B2, A, C) plus the gap-closure defects (E destructive consume race, F LLM mental-model tightening, G/G2 live_context.md -> projects replication + self-heal, plus ANSI escape leak) surfaced during the todlando-project-context-not-persisted debug session. Inbound `<project-context>` envelopes must reach disk at `projects/<project_name>/<self_id>.md`.

**Verified:** 2026-05-23T00:00Z
**Status:** human_needed (code complete; three operator-blocking smokes pending v1.11.7 + v1.11.8 deploy)
**Re-verification:** Yes — after Plans 25.3-05 (cb161ee, 2ecd879, 9d3665f, 8e17c35, 30187e5, 6aaa0fb, b997f6d, 34b9738, af84955, fd00695) and 25.3-06 (f8f6b00, 88c6e43, ada3797, 717e363) landed.

## Re-Verification Summary

| Cycle | Status before | Status after | Score before | Score after |
|-------|---------------|--------------|--------------|-------------|
| Plans 01-04 (initial) | human_needed | (re-confirmed, no regression) | 13/13 code + 1 live-smoke pending | 13/13 hold |
| Plans 05-06 (gap closure) | n/a | human_needed | n/a | 13/13 net-new code; 3 operator smokes pending deploy |
| **Combined** | | **human_needed** | | **26/26 code; 3 operator smokes pending** |

The Defect E + ANSI + F + G + G2 closures are landed in source AND verified by lib + integration tests. The remaining gating step is the operator-driven deploy chain (v1.11.6 -> v1.11.7 -> v1.11.8) plus the post-deploy re-run of UAT Tests 1 + 2 + two new smokes against the live `todlando` perch.

## Goal Achievement

### Observable Truths (Re-verified — Plans 01-04)

| #  | Truth | Status | Evidence |
|----|-------|--------|----------|
| 1  | B2 — project resolver derives from Self perch info.json `cwd` | VERIFIED (no regression) | `src/common/owlery.rs:892` `resolve_self_project_name_via_info_cwd` still present and consumed at `echo_commune.rs:496`. |
| 2  | B2 — `tracked` rejected at all three resolver layers | VERIFIED | `resolve_self_project_stamp` at echo_commune.rs:114-159 unchanged; tests `_legacy_perch_field_accepts_real_tracked` + `_rejects_tracked_when_cwd_is_psyche` + `_preserves_real_project_named_tracked` still inline. |
| 3  | B2 — `CURRENT_PROJECT_CONTEXT (name=<X>):` header emitted | VERIFIED | `src/owl/echo_commune.rs:929` unchanged. |
| 4  | C — `event_body_unescape` exists; one body decode per traversal | VERIFIED | `src/owl/poll.rs:775` `pub(crate) fn event_body_unescape` still present. |
| 5  | C — LLM never sees `<EVENT>` framing tokens at prompt layer | VERIFIED | `compose_llm_prompt_from_envelope` still at `src/live/wrapper/mod.rs:863`; still applied inside `resume_session_with_exit` + `final_session` (verified via grep). |
| 6  | D — psyche.md `<absorption>` section teaches inbound merge + re-emit | VERIFIED (extended in Plan 05) | `psyche.md:325-343` still present; rule 4 NOW carries the Plan 25.3-05 D-E-06 tightening sentence (additive, not regressive). Static guard `psyche_md_contains_25_3_absorption_section` still passes. |
| 7  | A — wrapper synchronously routes inbound body BEFORE LLM handoff | VERIFIED | `process_file_drop` commune arm still calls `route_inbound_commune_body(&self.self_id, &body, "direct")` BEFORE `compose_commune_payload` (now at `src/live/wrapper/mod.rs:1806`). |
| 8  | A — `RouteOutcome` propagates granular per-slice write state | VERIFIED | `RouteOutcome` / `SliceWriteState` at echo_commune.rs:271/280 unchanged. |
| 9  | A — Precedence marker placement is YAML-front-matter-aware | VERIFIED | `prepend_precedence_marker` + `parse_precedence_marker` unchanged. |
| 10 | A — `read_context_body_stripped` strips marker from all read sites | VERIFIED | Sites at echo_commune.rs:898/927 + context.rs:429/475 unchanged. |
| 11 | A — Signoff path refactored to parity | VERIFIED | `src/live/signoff.rs:76-108` unchanged. |
| 12 | A — Protection window configurable via `.planning/config.json` | VERIFIED | `read_route_guard_window_secs` at owlery.rs:1580 unchanged. |
| 13 | Test placement compliance (cycle-4 HIGH 4) | VERIFIED | All `pub(crate)`-targeting tests still INLINE. |

### Observable Truths (NEW — Plans 25.3-05 + 25.3-06)

| #  | Truth | Status | Evidence |
|----|-------|--------|----------|
| 14 | Defect E ROOT CAUSE closed: `append_pending_sections` no longer deletes drop file (D-E-01 single-writer contract) | VERIFIED | `src/live/context.rs` line 615 `fs::remove_file(&path)` REMOVED (grep `fs::remove_file` in src/live/context.rs returns only lines 972/974 which are unrelated atomic-rename ladder cleanups, NOT the destructive consume site). Inline test `append_pending_sections_persists_drop_file_d_e_01` PASS. |
| 15 | Defect F closed: psyche.md rule 4 carries the explicit prohibition + static grep guard | VERIFIED | `psyche.md:338` contains the literal sentence `Do NOT issue Write tool calls to \`projects/...\` paths. Those files are wholly runtime-managed. Your only Write target is \`agents/{{self_id}}/live_context.md\`.`. `tests/native_owl.rs:1181 fn psyche_md_forbids_projects_write_tool_calls()` PASS. |
| 16 | Defect G HAPPY-PATH closed: `route_live_context_md_if_changed` invoked from `init_session` + `resume_session_with_exit` + `final_session` post-`git_commit_context` | VERIFIED | `src/live/wrapper/mod.rs:639` `pub(crate) fn route_live_context_md_if_changed<D: ResumeRespawnDispatcher>`. Three hook sites at `claude.rs:172` (init), `claude.rs:353` (resume), `claude.rs:560` (final). Test `route_live_context_md_writes_project_slice_when_present` PASS. |
| 17 | Re-entrancy guard active: `WrapperState.live_ctx_route_in_flight: RefCell<bool>` + Drop sentinel | VERIFIED | Field declared at `mod.rs:1062`; initialized in `WrapperState::new` (mod.rs:2186) and 4 test constructors (2320, 3692, 3942, 4165). Helper checks guard at line 645; sets at 653; sentinel at 656. Test `route_live_context_md_skips_when_reentrancy_guard_set` PASS. |
| 18 | Cross-subsystem regression guards exist as TWO chained inline tests (D-E-03) | VERIFIED | `append_pending_sections_persists_drop_file_d_e_01` inline in `src/live/context.rs::tests:1383` PASS. `route_inbound_commune_body_writes_live_slice_when_drop_file_present` inline in `src/live/wrapper/mod.rs::file_drop_handler_tests:3775` PASS. |
| 19 | B1 invariant locked via `route_two_slice_with_precedence_llm_after_llm_writes_both` | VERIFIED | Inline test at `src/owl/echo_commune.rs:2736` PASS — locks the documented `should_suppress_llm_write` contract (suppress only when existing_marker.source=="direct"). |
| 20 | Wrapper log no longer contains ANSI escapes from poll subprocess stderr | VERIFIED | `src/live/wrapper/mod.rs:1537` (Unix) + `:1568` (Windows) both apply `crate::common::output::strip_ansi(&stderr)` before `self.log(...)`. |
| 21 | `pub fn strip_ansi(&str) -> String` in `src/common/output.rs` with 2 inline unit tests | VERIFIED | `src/common/output.rs:63 pub fn strip_ansi`. Tests `strip_ansi_removes_cyan_ready_escape` + `strip_ansi_passthrough_for_no_escapes` PASS. |
| 22 | psyche-download output behavior unchanged for operator; drop file persists post-call documented in `plugin/spt/skills/live/SKILL.md` (D-E-05) | VERIFIED | `plugin/spt/skills/live/SKILL.md:196` `#### Drop file lifecycle (25.3-05 D-E-01 single-writer contract)` present. (Note: Plan targeted `plugin/spt/skills/psyche-download/SKILL.md` but that file was deleted by `quick-260518-2d6` skill consolidation; documented Rule-3 deviation in 25.3-05-SUMMARY.) |
| 23 | Plan 04 `route_inbound_commune_body` contract preserved | VERIFIED | Still at `src/live/wrapper/mod.rs:576`; still emits `[FILE-DROP] route_inbound_commune_body for {self_id}` log; still returns `RouteOutcome`. Process_file_drop wiring at line 1806 unchanged. |
| 24 | `tests/file_drop_integration.rs` Tests 5+6 assertion flips landed | VERIFIED | Tests 5+6 PASS post-flip. Assertions at lines 347 + 442 now read `commune_path.exists()` / `signoff_path.exists()` with D-E-01 messages. |
| 25 | Defect G2 self-heal: `ResumeRespawnDispatcher` trait + `RouteLiveCtxOutcome::Respawned(Box<...>)` + `MalformedRetryExhausted` + corrective prompt literal + single retry cap (Plan 25.3-06) | VERIFIED | Trait at `mod.rs:538`; production impl at `mod.rs:544`; enum variants at 523-524; corrective-prompt anchor `did not honor the two-slice envelope contract` at mod.rs:752 (log) + asserted in test at mod.rs:4245. Helper signature gained `last_prompt: Option<&str>` + `dispatcher: &D` parameters. Hook sites updated: init_session `Some(&init_msg), self` (claude.rs:172); resume_session_with_exit `Some(&timestamped), self` (claude.rs:353); final_session `None, self` (claude.rs:560). |
| 26 | Four G2 inline tests in `src/live/wrapper/mod.rs::file_drop_handler_tests` (Plan 25.3-06 Task 3) | VERIFIED | (a) `route_live_context_md_g2_fires_when_trigger_conditions_met` PASS; (b) `route_live_context_md_g2_does_not_fire_on_rule_6_omission` PASS; (c) `route_live_context_md_g2_returns_respawned_routed_when_corrective_succeeds` PASS; (d) `route_live_context_md_g2_retry_exhausted_logs_and_continues` PASS. Plan 25.3-05's two existing tests also updated to pass inert `TestResumeRespawn` and still PASS. |

**Score:** 26/26 code-observable must-haves verified (13 inherited Plan 01-04 + 13 net-new Plan 05-06). **Three operator-driven verifications remain** (deploy v1.11.6->v1.11.7, deploy v1.11.7->v1.11.8, re-run UAT smokes) — see human_verification frontmatter block.

No BLOCKER anti-patterns. No `TBD`/`FIXME`/`XXX` debt markers in any of the Plan 25.3-05 / Plan 25.3-06 modified files (verified by absence in plan/summary commit ranges).

### Human Verification Required

#### 1. Operator deploy v1.11.6 -> v1.11.7 (Plan 25.3-05 patch bump) — HARD GATE per Plan 25.3-05 Task 10

**Test:**
```powershell
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File docs/DEPLOY.ps1 -Bump patch
```
Then in the active Claude Code session:
```
/reload-plugins
```

**Expected:**
- `plugin/spt/.claude-plugin/plugin.json` `version` flips from `1.11.6` -> `1.11.7`.
- `Cargo.lock` reflects the new version.
- `cargo build --release` succeeds inside DEPLOY.ps1.
- Marketplace clone synced; `claude plugin install spt@cplugs` completes.
- Running live wrappers self-migrate to v1.11.7 via the binary-handoff path (Phase 18.4/18.5).

**Why human:** Plan 25.3-05 Task 10 is explicitly `checkpoint:human-verify gate="blocking"`. SUMMARY documents (with citation to CLAUDE.md `feedback_deploy_all_files.md`) that DEPLOY.ps1 + `claude plugin install` mutate the operator's plugin cache + the upstream marketplace clone — operator-domain side effects this verifier cannot run. Verifier confirmed at 2026-05-23T00:00Z that `plugin/spt/.claude-plugin/plugin.json` still reads `"version": "1.11.6"`.

#### 2. Operator deploy v1.11.7 -> v1.11.8 (Plan 25.3-06 patch bump) — HARD GATE per Plan 25.3-06 Task 4

**Test:** After verifying #1 completed cleanly, run DEPLOY.ps1 -Bump patch again. Then `/reload-plugins`.

**Expected:**
- `plugin.json` `version` flips `1.11.7` -> `1.11.8`.
- Live wrappers self-migrate to v1.11.8 carrying the G2 self-heal extension.

**Why human:** Plan 25.3-06 Task 4 is `checkpoint:human-verify gate="blocking"`. G2 self-heal ships as its own version bump explicitly so the trigger heuristic can be rolled back independently of the HAPPY-PATH hook. Same operator-domain rationale as #1.

#### 3. Re-run 25.3-HUMAN-UAT Test 1 + Test 2 + new Defect G HAPPY-PATH smoke + new Defect G2 self-heal smoke + G2 negative control — after both deploys

**Test 1 (Defect E + ANSI verify):**
```powershell
$body = @'
<project-context>marker-25.3-05-verify timestamp-test</project-context>
'@
$tmp = New-TemporaryFile
Set-Content -NoNewline -Path $tmp -Value $body
& $env:OWL deliver todlando --file $tmp
Remove-Item $tmp
```

**Test 1 Expected:**
- `Get-Content "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\spt\psyches\tracked\projects\claude_skill_owl\todlando.md"` line 1: `<!-- spt:source=direct spt:routed_at=<ISO8601> -->`; body contains marker.
- `Select-String -Path "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\spt\logs_latest\todlando.log" -Pattern '\[FILE-DROP\] route_inbound_commune_body for todlando'` returns >=1 match.
- NO `(file gone)` log line (Defect E closed).
- `Get-Content "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\spt\logs_latest\todlando.log" -Tail 200 | Select-String -Pattern "$([char]27)\["` returns 0 matches in `poll exited code=...` lines (ANSI scrub working).

**Test 2 (Encoding-contract smoke — was `blocked` because Test 1 produced no LLM resume):**
- Tail next `[PSYCHE] resume (exit=0)` block; confirm literal `<live-context>`/`<project-context>` tags (NOT `&lt;...&gt;` entities).

**New — Defect G HAPPY-PATH smoke (Plan 25.3-05 Task 10 step 8):**
- Wait for natural Psyche context-save cadence OR pulse `& $env:LIVE commune todlando 'Please save your live_context.md now.'`.
- `Select-String "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\spt\logs_latest\todlando.log" -Pattern '\[LIVE-CONTEXT-POST-WRITE\] route for todlando'` returns >=1 match.
- Projects file line 1 is `<!-- spt:source=llm spt:routed_at=... -->`.

**New — Defect G2 self-heal smoke (Plan 25.3-06 Task 4 step 4):**
- Stop wrapper. Stage malformed `agents/todlando/live_context.md` (live slice only, no project slice). Pre-send a `<project-context>` commune BEFORE reviving (satisfies D-G2-01 condition c). Revive.
- Within ~1 minute: `[LIVE-CONTEXT-MALFORMED] respawning with corrective prompt self_id=todlando` log line appears.
- Post-respawn: live_context.md contains BOTH envelopes; projects file materializes.

**Negative control (G2 should NOT fire on rule-6 omission):**
- Stage same malformed body, do NOT pre-send commune. Revive. Wait ~2 min.
- Confirm NO `[LIVE-CONTEXT-MALFORMED] respawning` log line.
- Confirm `[LIVE-CONTEXT-POST-WRITE] skip no-project-slice` with `prompt_had_project_ctx=false` appears.

**Why human:** Plan 25.3-05 Task 10 + Plan 25.3-06 Task 4 both define these as `checkpoint:human-verify gate="blocking"`. The actual wrapper-on-disk behavior against the live Psyche binary cannot be exercised by static + unit-test verification. INLINE tests cover the helper invocation + mock dispatcher exhaustively (6 helper tests + 121 wrapper-module tests all green), but the live perch smoke is the final close-out gate. The previous UAT cycle reported Test 1 as `result: issue` (blocker) — the v1.11.7 + v1.11.8 deploys are precisely what address that report.

Update `25.3-HUMAN-UAT.md` to flip Test 1 `result: issue` -> `result: pass`, Test 2 `result: blocked` -> `result: pass`, and append two new entries (G HAPPY-PATH smoke + G2 self-heal smoke + G2 negative control) once all post-deploy smokes succeed.

### Gaps Summary

**No code gaps.** All 26 code-observable must-haves verified: 13 Plan 01-04 truths still hold post-gap-closure with no regressions; 13 Plan 25.3-05 + Plan 25.3-06 net-new truths all backed by present source + passing inline tests + passing integration tests. Full wrapper test module green (121 tests). Full Plan 25.3-05 + Plan 25.3-06 inline test cluster green (6 helper tests for `route_live_context_md_*` + 2 strip_ansi + 1 D-E-01 guard + 1 D-E-03 (ii) cross-subsystem guard + 1 B1 invariant + 2 native_owl static guards + 2 file_drop_integration flips).

**Three operator-driven verifications outstanding** — listed in `human_verification:` frontmatter:

1. Operator deploys v1.11.6 -> v1.11.7 (Plan 25.3-05). plugin.json is still at 1.11.6 on disk at verification time.
2. Operator deploys v1.11.7 -> v1.11.8 (Plan 25.3-06).
3. Operator re-runs 25.3-HUMAN-UAT Test 1 (was `issue`/blocker) + Test 2 (was `blocked`) + two NEW smokes (G HAPPY-PATH + G2 self-heal) + G2 negative control.

The deploy + UAT defer to operator is documented in both Plan 25.3-05 SUMMARY (Task 10 disposition) and Plan 25.3-06 SUMMARY (Task 4 disposition), with explicit citation to CLAUDE.md / project memory `feedback_deploy_all_files.md` policy. This is the intended terminal state of the gap-closure cycle: code complete in source + tests green; operator must drive the deploy + live smoke.

**Status: human_needed.** Code closure complete (26/26); awaiting operator deploy chain + post-deploy live UAT smokes.
