    "title_a": "A corrupt or unreadable access store degrades CLOSED, loudly (ADR-0053 — an ADR-level flip of ADR-0009's deliberate fail-open ruling). ADR-0009 justified fail-open explicitly: the whitelist was 'a same-subnet convenience boundary layered inside subnet membership, not the system's outer wall', because every member node was the one user's own machine. The SHARED SUBNET ruling breaks that premise — member nodes now belong to different human operators and the access layer gates agents — and a boundary that evaporates when its store file corrupts is not a boundary an operator can reason about. So a store that CANNOT BE READ refuses unlisted-subject traffic on every surface rather than admitting it, and says so on the refusing node naming the store path (silence plus refusal reads as network failure and burns diagnosis time). TWO THINGS SURVIVE THE DEGRADE: the stateful-firewall reply exemption (correlation state is a separate file keyed on the endpoint's own recent outbound — a degraded node keeps its own conversations alive) and the same-node loopback Allow. THE SPLIT THAT MAKES THIS SHIPPABLE: an ABSENT store file is NOT a degrade. It is the unconfigured baseline — every fleet node today has no access.json, and reading absence as closed would refuse all unsolicited cross-node traffic fleet-wide on upgrade. The two cases split on std::io::ErrorKind::NotFound and nothing else: never-created reads as an empty store whose chain bottoms out open; any other io error or a parse failure is a degrade. Absent-is-open keeps an unconfigured fleet reachable, unreadable-is-closed makes the boundary real. Consequence accepted per ADR-0053: a personal fleet with zero configured rules now blocks unsolicited cross-node traffic if its store file CORRUPTS — the failure is loud, local, and repairable, and the alternative (silent admission on a shared subnet) is the worse lie. Existing fail-open tests are repinned to the new contract as part of this diff (a product contract change, not a test fixup). Gate: doc — ADR-0053 and the CONTEXT.md control-surface-modes entry carrying the degrade rule; impl — AccessStore::load_checked/load_checked_from returning AccessDegraded (path + cause) with the NotFound split, and the daemon gate's refuse-plus-diagnostic arm ordered AFTER the reply exemption; unit — the degrade split (absent is baseline, corrupt and unreadable both degrade, diagnostic names the path) and the gate-level proof that the same call is allowed before corruption, refused on every surface during it, still allowed as a reply throughout, and allowed again once the store is repaired without a restart.",

SECOND GAP: CC resolves a transcript by session_id + cwd, but the session ledger records only {ts, session_id, trigger} (no cwd), so picker Resume-from-history (cross-project rows) can't restore the right cwd. FIX (doyle design, V0.13.0-P2-SESSION-RESUME-DESIGN.md, mirrors psyche_init->psyche_resume exactly): (A) add a `[session.resume]` role (resume: Option<SessionRole> on Session + roles()/is_empty()); cmd_endpoint_run selects it when --resume is set AND it's declared (fill {id}/{session_id}=resumed id/{session_name} + the resume cwd), else FALL BACK to `[session.self]` (full back-compat). (B) record cwd PER ledger row (operator ruling): {ts, session_id, trigger, cwd} additive serde-default; resume cwd = resumed row cwd -> else perch info.cwd -> else current_dir (back-compat for old rows + single-project endpoints); picker threads the selected row's cwd through Outcome::Run -> cmd_endpoint_run.

ROOT (field-pinned + SME, docs/UPDATE-WEDGE-2-RCA.md + docs/UPDATE-WEDGE-2-SME-todlando.md): `resume_sessions` (brain.rs:985) re-attaches EVERY session `KIND_SESSIONS` returns via `subscribe` = `subscribe_with(AttachIntent::Control, by:None)` (brain.rs:1450-1455). The docstring's 'a None identity never displaces (falls back to viewer)' is a MYTH for FREE / SAME-LOCAL-IDENTITY slots: `resolve_subscribe` (broker.rs:1134-1153) stall-evicts FIRST, then `become_controller` if the slot is now free OR the incumbent is also local (None==None) — viewer-fallback fires ONLY when a DIFFERENT REMOTE controls. So on a box with N spt-hosted broker PTYs, a brain-respawn STEALS the by:None controller of every free/local-controlled session (incl. the operator's LOCAL `spt rc`), which the daemon brain never drains (it hosts no PTY sessions — brainproc.rs:184) → 15s later `stall_evict_controller` (broker.rs:1039) releases driven_by → the session is UNCONTROLLABLE (Failure A). It also head-of-line-blocks the shared brain↔broker conn on the N-session controller-replay burst → every journaled `spt rc` retake deadlines ('brain IPC read deadline', the REQ-BROKER-ATTACH-JOURNAL-RESILIENT / #16 shared-conn symptom) → global rc failure on ALL N (Failure B). Field 2026-07-09 (operator-confirmed): fetch--apply 0.30.2→0.30.3 PROMOTED CLEANLY (the counter-54 fix worked) but under 7 spt-hosted PTYs (ALL with LOCAL by:None controllers) the resume SILENTLY STOLE all 7 (become_controller same-local re-take, NO Displaced notice → orphaned, output froze immediately, no rc-detach splash) + blocked every rc retake. The 5-vs-2 stall-evict split is ACTIVE-vs-IDLE, not remote-vs-local: 5 producing output → stolen writer blocked >15s → stall-evict; 2 idle → writer parked → no evict, but still silently stolen+frozen. The counter-54 promotion fix did NOT cause this — pre-existing resume-steal latent bug, hidden until N broker PTYs were present at a respawn; the single-black-holed-session A'-rig never exercised N-live-controllers-under-replay. FIX (brain-side): `resume_sessions` re-attaches as **Viewer** (`AttachIntent::Viewer`), NOT Control — a viewer never touches driven_by and is never stall-evicted (broker.rs:1063+ bounded try_send + private eviction), so steal-then-drop vanishes and the operator keeps/regains control; and it relieves shared-conn pressure (a slow viewer is DROPPED, never a 15s controller block) so rc retake gets through. Control ONLY for sessions the daemon brain genuinely DRIVES (empty set today → all become Viewer; forward-correct for the live-agent-adapter future). SECONDARY (escalation, ONLY if the gate shows residual B): stagger the resume re-attach + bound the viewer replay so the respawn burst can't saturate the conn. Int = the multi-broker-PTY-session RESPAWN rig (the coverage the A'-rig lacked): N real broker-spawned sessions with controllers producing output → real brain respawn/promote → assert (1) EVERY session keeps its controller across the swap (no stall-evict of a session the brain doesn't drive), (2) `spt rc` attaches/retakes IMMEDIATELY post-promote (no shared-conn saturation), (3) promotion still succeeds.

    "title_b": "RULED DESIGN, delivery unowned (doyle 2026-07-26): when a caller hands identity resolution an EXPLICIT non-empty $OWL_SESSION_ID that resolves to NO perch, core must REFUSE identity (unresolved, exit 1, loud distinct diagnostic) rather than fall through to an ambient/inherited one — today `detect_self_id` (roster.rs, legs a→b→b2→c) treats sid-UNMATCHED identically to sid-ABSENT, so the fallback chain re-adopts precisely the identity a sharper claim just failed to prove. MEASURED (perri, this node, 2026-07-26, three read-only whoami calls from a genuine descendant of the perri host process): (1) all SPT_*/OWL_* scrubbed → id null, exit 1 — ancestry resolved nothing (caveat honored from the probe: the perch's recorded pid was not in the caller's chain, so this run refutes lineage-as-the-mechanism for probe v1 without disproving a lineage path in general); (2) inherited SPT_ENDPOINT_ID=perri + explicit OWL_SESSION_ID matching no perch → perri, exit 0 — the mismatch datum was IN HAND (core had already scanned and failed to match the explicit sid) and the ambient id won anyway; (3) real OWL_SESSION_ID with endpoint id scrubbed → correct self — the healthy path any fix must leave untouched. SCOPE OF THE REFUSAL, ruled: only sid-PRESENT-AND-UNMATCHED poisons the fallback, and it poisons ALL weaker legs (b SPT_AGENT_ID, b2 SPT_ENDPOINT_ID, c pid-ancestry) — an explicit failed claim outranks every ambient claim below it; sid-ABSENT/empty keeps today's full chain unchanged, because the leg-b2 field root (live-repro'd 2026-07-10: the adapter surfaces OWL_SESSION_ID to the session shell as an UNEXPORTED var, so the child process legitimately carries endpoint id without sid) is exactly the flow the guard must not break — that flow is sid-absent, never sid-mismatched. WHY CORE AND NOT ONLY THE ADAPTER: the measured entry path is closed adapter-side (perri's REQ-HAZARD-INHERITED-IDENTITY-ADOPTION @ their a7558aa + claude-spt KNOWN-HAZARDS 7.4, shipped: whoami child calls scrub SPT_ENDPOINT_ID/SPT_AGENT_ID; rig discipline now detached AND env-scrubbed — the scrub is the operative half), but the inconsistency being fixed is CORE'S: the adapter fastpath's verified_env_id REFUSES an inherited SPT_ENDPOINT_ID on carrier-proof mismatch (carrier sid != payload sid) and core's fallback then RE-GRANTS what that layer just refused — one layer's refusal must not be another layer's grant, and every other harness/adapter gets the defense only if core holds it. SEVERITY UPGRADE recorded at mint: unlike the KH 7.1–7.3 shapes (lost reads), this adoption was WRITE-CAPABLE in the field — the adopting descendant re-pointed the ANCESTOR's session pin, so the ancestor went dark while the descendant looked healthy (perri's own pin, probe v1). KIN, same review same milestone: leg (b) SPT_AGENT_ID returns UNCONDITIONALLY today — not even perch-checked, weaker than leg b2's bound-perch gate; align it when this lands. MEASURED on the live node, not just code-read (perri, same probe run, reported 2026-07-26): SPT_AGENT_ID=nobody-xyz with a bogus OWL_SESSION_ID returned {'id':'nobody-xyz','ready':false,'alive':true,'unbound':false}, exit 0 — a phantom identity for an endpoint that does not exist, beating both the sid leg and ancestry; the returned shape has no state key and ready:false but a populated id, and the adapter parser takes .id first, so a whoami-trusting adapter writes state under the phantom — the same write-capable class as the inherited-adoption case, sourced from a made-up name instead of a real ancestor. perri's adapter scrub covers SPT_AGENT_ID as well as SPT_ENDPOINT_ID for exactly this reason. POSTURE UNCHANGED: whoami legs remain from-label/routing only, never authentication (KH 7.3/7.5, F-024 stays parked) — refusal tightens label discipline, it promotes nothing to auth. Gate at activation: unit — sid-unmatched + ambient endpoint id present → refusal with the distinct diagnostic (probe shape 2 goes loud); sid-absent + ambient endpoint id on a bound perch → still resolves (leg-b2 field root preserved); sid-matched → unchanged (probe shape 3).",

    "title_b": "ResidentService substrate (ADR-0049, design ratified 2026-07-26): a daemon-supervised binary an adapter declares via a `[service]` manifest section — core-owned from birth, NO perch/identity/address. SPAWN: the daemon launches it job-neutrally (detached_no_inherit + the cold-start ladder posture), so it is never a shell's child (`/T` tree-kill cannot reach it; the shell-descendant hazard class of REQ-SHELL-ADAPTER-OWNED-DETACHED-SERVICE never arises) and never inside a launching terminal's Job Object (the REQ-SHELL-CLI-SPAWN-JOB-EXPOSURE service half closes by construction). START TRIGGER declared in the manifest: start = 'boot' or start = 'bind'; supervised identically once running, with the wake-watcher scaffolding (backoff, give-up latch, one-per-instance lock, orphan-kill, brain-side reconcile) minus the offline-only flip. 'boot' is DESIRED-STATE-RUNNING, not an event: the supervisor reconciles a boot service toward running at EVERY opportunity — daemon boot, ADAPTER REGISTRATION while the daemon is live (operator addition 2026-07-26: installing or registering an adapter whose manifest declares a boot service starts it THEN — spt itself is never restarted to bring a new adapter's service up), update-hold release, and first shell bind as the defensive ensure. 'bind' starts only at the adapter's first shell bind. CARDINALITY: one supervised instance per registered adapter-option `<adapter>[:profile]` (consumer-confirmed as COHERENT TARGET SHAPE — flynn's precision, 2026-07-26: not exercisable by the first consumer until per-option config dirs exist; alchemy today has one config dir and daemon.toml carries exactly one guild_id); the adapter may keep its own kernel file lock as a private double-start guard — core neither reads nor depends on it. PER-OPTION IDENTITY IS THREADED (flynn's gap, accepted): the supervisor passes the adapter-option name and the per-option runtime dir into the service's spawn environment, so an adapter can scope its private guard AND its config per option — the mechanism that makes two-options-two-services deliverable rather than merely permitted. Without it, two options resolving one adapter config dir produce the silent flap flynn derived: instance two exits immediately on the kernel lock, core sees only start-then-die, and crash-relaunch backoff is CORRECT behavior against that observation — two correct components disagreeing about the unit. UPDATE IS A FIRST-CLASS SUPERVISOR OPERATION WITH AN EXPLICIT HOLD: quiesce -> hold (stopped and NEVER relaunched while held) -> bits swap -> start new bits -> release; adapter update-apply performs this ordered operation; crash-relaunch with backoff applies ONLY when not held. The forcing case is structural, not advisory (flynn, argued against their own convenience): an eager relaunch during a swap re-pins the OLD exe mid-deploy (Windows exe lock), converting a diagnosable os-error-5 into an unwinnable race — if delivery must sequence, the hold ships FIRST and a dead service stays dead until told otherwise (the STALE-ONLINE no-spontaneous-relaunch ruling, same reason, one layer down). FAST-EXIT IS A CONFIGURATION FAULT, NOT A CRASH: consecutive immediate exits (exit within a startup threshold, N in a row) trip the give-up latch EARLY with a distinct loud STARTUP_FAULT diagnostic carrying the captured early stderr — a double-start lock conflict then reads as the configuration fault it is, never as a silently flapping service ground through backoff. QUIESCE IS COOPERATIVE EXIT + DEADLINE: the supervisor places a stop-request marker (a file in the service's runtime dir — polling services observe it on their next cycle; no inbox exists or is added); the service exits WHEN SAFE and the kernel-observed exit IS the ack — 'not ready' is expressed by not-yet-exiting, so no busy record exists to go stale in either direction; a manifest-declared grace deadline (default ~30s) bounds the wait, then force-kill. Delay possible, veto never. An OPTIONAL advisory status line may surface in service status display — never consulted for decisions. LIVENESS IS DERIVED, NEVER RECORDED: the supervisor is the parent and holds the child handle (exit is kernel-observed); no supervisor-maintained running-record exists (the v0.43.0 stale-online lesson applied one layer down — flynn's condition, structural here). Any status/version identity surface keeps the locked-file split lesson: never require reading a file the service holds an exclusive OS lock on (Windows). CLI INVOCATION CAPABILITY (consumer-blocking, non-negotiable per flynn): the supervisor threads the environment so the service can invoke the spt CLI (`spt send` et al., identityless cli@node from-label, durable spooling per ADR-0002) — if a supervised Hub cannot shell out to spt send, node-wide Watch delivery dies silently. ADDRESSING: none — a service needing a two-way agent-facing surface has one at its adapter's endpoint/shell layer (the alchemy layering argument that re-scoped ADR-0023's faceless-service rejection); AlwaysOnEndpoint (REQ-EP-8) = this substrate + the addressable front. Gate at activation (all legs against a MOCK service adapter — the gate never depends on the first consumer being the boot specimen): int — a manifest [service start='boot'] binary rises with the daemon job-neutrally, a registration of that manifest against an ALREADY-LIVE daemon starts the service without any restart, survives a shell teardown of the same adapter (tree-kill does not reach it), a held update swaps bits with zero relaunch races (hold observed under a concurrent crash), quiesce marker -> cooperative exit within grace, deadline -> force-kill on a wedged mock, a mock that exits instantly N consecutive times surfaces STARTUP_FAULT (not a backoff flap), and the service successfully invokes spt send from its supervised environment. ACTIVATED FOR W1 2026-07-26 WITH THE FOLLOWING BUILD RULINGS FOLDED IN (doyle; constraints live in the artifact, not the dispatch thread). VERB SURFACE: the operator-facing verbs are `spt adapter service list` (all registered options + derived state) and `spt adapter service status <adapter[:profile]>`, nested under the ADAPTER group — NOT a bare `spt service`. Reason: 'service' is ALREADY public surface carrying an unrelated meaning — the platform daemon-service abstraction (REQ-DAEMON-6/-8, `crates/spt-daemon/src/service.rs`: the systemd user unit vs the Windows at-logon task) surfaces in `spt daemon` help as 'registered OS service' / 'managed service' / 'the managing service label'. Ownership-scoping separates the two meanings permanently: the OS-service is the DAEMON's and lives under `spt daemon`; the resident service is the ADAPTER's and lives under `spt adapter`. ADR-0049's 'service status display' means `spt adapter service status`; the W1 PR carries a one-line ADR errata note. GIVE-UP LATCH SCOPE: the latch suppresses relaunch grinding until something plausibly changed — it is NOT a durable verdict. Cleared by exactly three events: (1) DAEMON BOOT — desired-state-running enumerates boot as a reconcile opportunity with NO latch exception, and the re-trip is bounded (N fast exits) and LOUD (STARTUP_FAULT re-fires each boot); an in-memory per-daemon-lifetime latch is an acceptable implementation, and if the durable-marker scaffolding is reused then boot clears the marker; (2) ADAPTER RE-REGISTRATION — declared intent that manifest/config changed, reconciling immediately; (3) UPDATE-HOLD RELEASE — new bits invalidate the fault evidence. NOT cleared by the first-shell-bind ensure: a bind changes nothing about the service's config, so the bind-time reconcile SKIPS latched services — otherwise ordinary shell use converts the latch into the very flap it exists to stop. The REJECTED alternative is recorded deliberately: a durable latch with explicit-clear-only leaves an operator's already-fixed config fault sitting behind a service that stays dead and quiet forever — loud-bounded beats quiet-permanent (the heal-assigns-owner-never-closes shape one layer down). SANCTIONED BUT NOT W1-REQUIRED: `spt adapter service restart <adapter[:profile]>` as the explicit manual clear+reconcile — take it into W1 only if cheap once the verb group exists; the three automatic clears ARE the requirement. REGISTRATION-TIME START IS A WIRE OP: `registry::register` runs in the CLI PROCESS (`crates/spt/src/cli.rs`, the adapter-add and adapter-update call sites), so it cannot itself start anything in the daemon — registration-starts-the-service structurally requires ONE new adapter-scoped daemon IPC op, semantically `AdapterServiceReconcile { adapter }` (exact spelling matched to house op style where it lands), which the CLI calls after a SUCCESSFUL register on BOTH paths when the daemon is reachable. The daemon handler runs THE SAME reconcile code path as boot / hold-release / bind — ONE reconcile function taking an opportunity discriminant, never a second start authority. The response is a per-option outcome list (started / already-running / held / latched / bind-deferred / startup-fault) so the CLI prints honest per-option text. Daemon NOT reachable: registration STILL SUCCEEDS — never a refusal — and the CLI prints a REQUIRED notice that the service is declared, the daemon is not running, and it will come up at the next daemon boot. That notice is CONTRACT, not courtesy. RUNTIME-DIR ENCODING: cardinality is per adapter-option, so the option name becomes a PATH component and `:` is illegal in a Windows path. Core NEVER uses the raw option string as a path component — every construction site goes through ONE shared encoder, and that encoding MUST BE INJECTIVE (a lossless escape, never a strip/replace that can collide). Two distinct options mapping to one runtime dir means two services sharing a quiesce-marker namespace: the silent flap one layer down. The unit gate MUST include a collision-adversarial pair (e.g. if `:` maps to `_`, then `a:b` and `a_b` must remain distinct). MODULE PLACEMENT: the supervisor lands as `servicehost.rs` (the established `*host` convention — shellhost, harnesshost, linkhost, applyhost); `service.rs` is untouched and BOTH module headers cross-reference the other meaning of 'service'. INSTALL-DIR RESOLUTION RIDES W1 (operator-requested via flynn, ruled in after code verification): the `[service]` spawn resolves its binary through the EXISTING REQ-INSTALL-11 helper — the same primitive, NO parallel resolution path — and the same wiring lands at the two shell-family fill sites, which today resolve NEITHER the install-dir program token NOR `{adapter_dir}`. Without it a `--release`-installed shell adapter registers but cannot spawn (bare token → os error 2; `{adapter_dir}/x` → 'no value for substitution key'), released shell adapters need a hand-maintained per-node manifest, `spt adapter update` on them is a permanent no-op, and THIS req's hold/swap/start ceremony would be exercisable by MOCK ONLY — never by the named first consumer. Site census discharged BEFORE build (authoritative grep, cfg(test) excluded, accepted by doyle): the production template-fill sites are `shellhost.rs::fill_spawn_command` and `shellwake.rs::fill_wake_command` (both targets — threading not shape, since the wake caller already holds `AdapterRecord.source_dir`, which IS the install dir), plus `harnesshost.rs` session `role.command`, which is OUT OF SCOPE and already resolves correctly through `resolve_program_in_dir`. Scope guard: shell spawn/wake + `[service]` ONLY — this does NOT expand into the `[session.self]`/`[history]` follow-on sites. FAULT COUNTERS ARE TWO, NOT ONE (ruled 2026-07-26 after the builder surfaced the reading): (1) the FAST-EXIT counter increments ONLY on exits whose uptime is UNDER the startup threshold, and RESETS the moment any run EXCEEDS that threshold. Without the reset the latch mislabels slow-crash decay as a configuration fault — the latch lying about cause, which is worse than no latch. STARTUP_FAULT is reserved for THIS path alone. (2) The ORDINARY consecutive-crash give-up (the shell wake-watcher scaffolding's `give_up_after` = 6, deliberately UPTIME-BLIND) sits BEHIND it UNCHANGED in W1 and keeps its existing diagnostic label — no silent behavior fork from the shell watcher. (3) BOTH counters reset on the latch-clear events above (daemon boot, adapter re-registration, update-hold release): a clear that left either counter primed would relatch on the first post-clear crash and thereby defeat the clear. (4) NOTED-OPEN, deliberately NOT W1 and NOT a promise: the ordinary counter's uptime-blindness means a service that crashes once a day gives up after six days and then stays down until a clear event. Whether that decay behavior is right for SERVICES (as opposed to the shell watchers it was designed for) is a future ruling; it is recorded here as open so the next builder inherits the question rather than rediscovering it in the field. ORPHAN ADOPTION IS IMAGE-VERIFIED, AND ITS PLATFORM GAP IS RECORDED-OPEN (ruled 2026-07-26 after the builder surfaced the trade): a fresh daemon kills a dead daemon's parked orphan ONLY by path-verified identity — a live pid whose image path cannot be READ classifies `Unverifiable` and BLOCKS adoption, i.e. the start refuses loudly rather than proceeding. Loud-blocked over quietly-double-started is this design's whole posture (a bare-pid kill is the recycled-pid class, and a double-start is the silent flap the cardinality rule exists to prevent). RECORDED-OPEN consequence, NOT debt owed by W1: the image oracle is `/proc` on unix, so a unix WITHOUT `/proc` (macOS/BSD) would block on every live orphan until that pid dies. This is theoretical for every platform we ship — win, linux-gnu, musl — and no macOS/BSD asset exists; a future builder adding one inherits the question here rather than rediscovering it in the field. SUPERVISOR PLACEMENT IS BROKER-SIDE (ruled 2026-07-26): the supervised set, its boot sweep and the reconcile control socket live in the BROKER process, beside the digest/drive/tunnel hubs — NOT in the restartable brain child that hosts shellwake. Two reasons, both structural. (a) A supervisor owns LIVE CHILD HANDLES and, from the update ceremony on, an in-memory HOLD: that is a daemon-lifetime continuity resource, which is the ADR-0018 Q2/Q5 broker-side test; the Q5 exception that put shellwake in the brain reads 'a pure disk-reconciler' and this is not one. (b) A brain restart is the ROUTINE UPDATE PATH (StartReason::Update exists precisely for it), so brain-hosting would bounce every resident service through the orphan-adoption path with no quiesce, no grace and no hold — the ungoverned bounce this req's ordered update operation exists to replace — and would lose the hold mid-swap. Broker-hosting is also what makes the wire op possible at all: all control sockets are broker-served because a CLI cannot reach brain memory (stated in drivehub.rs's module header and obeyed by every hub). NO PERIODIC SWEEP — CHOSEN, NOT OMITTED (ruled 2026-07-26): the supervisor host runs the boot sweep and then parks; there is deliberately no timer re-sweeping on a cadence. The four ruled opportunities are all EVENTS, each with a caller that enters the one reconcile function directly, so a timer would be a FIFTH start authority nobody ruled in — and its only distinctive work would be silently healing a failed registration nudge, converting a diagnosable defect into invisible behavior. The REQUIRED daemon-unreachable notice is the honest answer to that case; machinery that papers over its own failure class is refused (the same instrument-soundness razor as the rest of this design). A SUPERVISOR WHOSE DECLARATION DISAPPEARS RECONCILES TOWARD STOPPED (ruled into W1 2026-07-26): every sweep runs a STOP side before its start side — an option whose adapter is soft-deregistered, hard-removed, or whose manifest no longer declares a [service] is torn down through the handle that names its child. This is the symmetric half of desired-state-running, not an addition to it: without it a deregistered adapter's binary outlives its own registration until the daemon dies, which is exactly the ungoverned-lifetime shape this req abolishes. TREE TEARDOWN ON EVERY SUPERVISOR-INITIATED KILL (ruled 2026-07-26): the force-kill deadline is where the unconditional-kill promise is WRITTEN, but it is not the boundary of the problem — a supervised service's descendants are torn down on every kill the supervisor initiates, including daemon-shutdown stop_all and the stop-side sweep teardown. Descendants outliving THOSE paths are strictly worse off than ones outliving a force-kill, because the next daemon's orphan sweep is structurally blind to them: it knows one parked pid and holds no handle to anything below it. Windows reaches the tree through a SUPERVISOR-OWNED Job Object assigned at birth (CREATE_SUSPENDED -> AssignProcessToJobObject -> resume, so no descendant is ever spawned outside the job; KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE deliberately OFF, so a dying supervisor is never an unannounced service outage); unix through the process group setsid already establishes. Job-NEUTRALITY is not contradicted: that invariant governs OTHER people's jobs reaching our processes, which CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB still handles at birth. A job the OS refuses is a LOUD DEGRADE, never a refusal to start: the process still dies on demand and only its descendants become unreachable, which is exactly where this path stood before the job existed — refusing the spawn would convert a bounded descendant leak into a total outage over a failure in an OS facility rather than in anything the adapter declared. THE STATUS SURFACE IS DAEMON-ANSWERED OR IT SAYS NOTHING (ruled 2026-07-26, the leg-D companion of the tree-teardown ruling): the CLI NEVER derives service state from the pid file. Either the daemon answers `spt adapter service list|status` over the control socket, or the CLI prints that the daemon is not running — verbatim, and with no fallback read. The pid file is a KILL HANDLE for the NEXT daemon, and reading it as liveness in a display surface is the v0.43.0 STALE-ONLINE class one layer down: a record answering a question the record cannot know. Three properties follow and are requirements, not implementation taste. (a) The status op is a PROJECTION over the live supervised set — the supervision threads, the hold flags and the stand-down records — plus the registry; it starts, stops, holds and kills nothing, because a diagnostic that converges the thing it measures is a start authority wearing a diagnostic's clothes. (b) A row reports its EVIDENCE: a latch surfaces with the captured startup output behind it, since a fault reported without its cause is the instrument failing at its one job. (c) An option SUPERVISED WITHOUT A DECLARATION behind it is reported as exactly that rather than hidden — with no periodic sweep, a deregistered adapter's supervisor lives until the next opportunity's stop side reaches it, and that window is precisely when an operator asks what is running. THE ADVISORY STATUS LINE IS DISPLAY-ONLY AND BOUNDED: the service may write one line into its runtime dir (named in docs/MANIFEST.md beside the stop-request marker, so it is implementable); core reads the FIRST line under a byte cap, treats an unreadable file as simply no advisory (the locked-file split rule holds), and consults it for NO decision — core deciding on it would put a least-trusted binary's self-report in the control path, and a service that stopped updating it would silently become whatever it last claimed. WIRE LENIENCY IS PLACED, NOT SPRINKLED: fields a reader BRANCHES on stay typed with a `#[serde(other)]` unknown arm (KH-2.3), while a field only ever ECHOED carries the daemon's label verbatim — re-deriving a lenient copy of the manifest's validated `start` vocabulary for the wire would weaken the one place strictness matters (registration). An op an older daemon predates HANGS UP rather than reading the request and answering nothing: a server that silently ignores an unknown kind leaves the caller blocked on a reply that never comes, so an older daemon would WEDGE a newer CLI instead of failing it.",

REOPENS the wedge facet of REQ-HAZARD-ATTACH-WEDGE: the v0.12.1 prove-don't-change covered only DEAD-CHILD backpressure, NOT the injection trigger (operator's signal — one injected keystroke succeeds, the next wedges → the single-threaded broker parks on a blocking PTY/loopback write after injection-induced harness output).

Fix candidates: non-blocking/fail-fast PTY write, split input/output, bounded-evicting.

So a slow/backed-up controller socket — or the full 64KB loopback duplex (the ATTACH-WEDGE buffer) — BLOCKS the drain thread → output stalls → keystroke echoes stall (PERCEIVED input lag) → unrecoverable wedge when the consumer never drains. TRIGGERS ON NORMAL INTERACTIVE rc USE under heavy harness output (TUI redraw), NOT only message injection — same root, wider repro. FIX DIRECTION: move controller delivery off the drain thread onto a dedicated writer (the viewer_writer pattern) BUT preserve the authoritative cursor — block the WRITER thread (not the drain), bound the wedge (deadline → detach/mark-gone, never park forever), never silently evict the operator's authoritative view.

Field case (this node, 17:47–17:50): an agent-kicked restart's stop-begin swept the initiating context and everything sharing its Job Object (flynn's shell + the relay-hopped alchemy Hub, cross-context job members — see REQ-SHELL-CLI-SPAWN-JOB-EXPOSURE's field-firing record); the broker drained ~2m10s to final exit (stderr ends abruptly at 17:50:05.8 amid routine traffic, no shutdown markers); the START was already dead; the operator manually started whatever binary was installed (v0.42.0), with no channel conveying which bits the restarting agent had intended — binary choice silently transferred to whoever brings the daemon up (kin: REQ-DAEMON-BITS-AMBIGUITY, the same which-bits-serve blindness). CONSEQUENCES: (a) every RESTART-REQUIRED apply (broker update, seed-skew restart per hazard 7.9) is operator-only today, and nothing documents that; (b) stop-begin kills bound shells with `close_shell` unrun, so even the GRACEFUL stop path manufactures stale-online shell records on every restart — healed at the read gates by REQ-HAZARD-SHELL-STALE-ONLINE's derivation, but manufactured nonetheless, and on pre-derivation binaries the records lie until the next bind; (c) a restart initiated from inside the system it restarts is a self-interruption with no error surface — the initiator dies believing the restart is in flight. Option space at activation: (1) daemon-owned restart verb — the OUTGOING broker spawns its successor job-neutrally (the 7.10 WMI→schtasks→breakaway ladder already exists) before exiting, so the caller only requests and its death is irrelevant; (2) a detached job-neutral restart helper (same detached_no_inherit + ladder) that survives the caller; (3) status quo + the public contract documents restart as operator-only.

Without it, two options resolving one adapter config dir produce the silent flap flynn derived: instance two exits immediately on the kernel lock, core sees only start-then-die, and crash-relaunch backoff is CORRECT behavior against that observation — two correct components disagreeing about the unit. UPDATE IS A FIRST-CLASS SUPERVISOR OPERATION WITH AN EXPLICIT HOLD: quiesce -> hold (stopped and NEVER relaunched while held) -> bits swap -> start new bits -> release; adapter update-apply performs this ordered operation; crash-relaunch with backoff applies ONLY when not held. The forcing case is structural, not advisory (flynn, argued against their own convenience): an eager relaunch during a swap re-pins the OLD exe mid-deploy (Windows exe lock), converting a diagnosable os-error-5 into an unwinnable race — if delivery must sequence, the hold ships FIRST and a dead service stays dead until told otherwise (the STALE-ONLINE no-spontaneous-relaunch ruling, same reason, one layer down). FAST-EXIT IS A CONFIGURATION FAULT, NOT A CRASH: consecutive immediate exits (exit within a startup threshold, N in a row) trip the give-up latch EARLY with a distinct loud STARTUP_FAULT diagnostic carrying the captured early stderr — a double-start lock conflict then reads as the configuration fault it is, never as a silently flapping service ground through backoff. QUIESCE IS COOPERATIVE EXIT + DEADLINE: the supervisor places a stop-request marker (a file in the service's runtime dir — polling services observe it on their next cycle; no inbox exists or is added); the service exits WHEN SAFE and the kernel-observed exit IS the ack — 'not ready' is expressed by not-yet-exiting, so no busy record exists to go stale in either direction; a manifest-declared grace deadline (default ~30s) bounds the wait, then force-kill. Delay possible, veto never. An OPTIONAL advisory status line may surface in service status display — never consulted for decisions. LIVENESS IS DERIVED, NEVER RECORDED: the supervisor is the parent and holds the child handle (exit is kernel-observed); no supervisor-maintained running-record exists (the v0.43.0 stale-online lesson applied one layer down — flynn's condition, structural here). Any status/version identity surface keeps the locked-file split lesson: never require reading a file the service holds an exclusive OS lock on (Windows). CLI INVOCATION CAPABILITY (consumer-blocking, non-negotiable per flynn): the supervisor threads the environment so the service can invoke the spt CLI (`spt send` et al., identityless cli@node from-label, durable spooling per ADR-0002) — if a supervised Hub cannot shell out to spt send, node-wide Watch delivery dies silently. ADDRESSING: none — a service needing a two-way agent-facing surface has one at its adapter's endpoint/shell layer (the alchemy layering argument that re-scoped ADR-0023's faceless-service rejection); AlwaysOnEndpoint (REQ-EP-8) = this substrate + the addressable front. Gate at activation (all legs against a MOCK service adapter — the gate never depends on the first consumer being the boot specimen): int — a manifest [service start='boot'] binary rises with the daemon job-neutrally, a registration of that manifest against an ALREADY-LIVE daemon starts the service without any restart, survives a shell teardown of the same adapter (tree-kill does not reach it), a held update swaps bits with zero relaunch races (hold observed under a concurrent crash), quiesce marker -> cooperative exit within grace, deadline -> force-kill on a wedged mock, a mock that exits instantly N consecutive times surfaces STARTUP_FAULT (not a backoff flap), and the service successfully invokes spt send from its supervised environment. ACTIVATED FOR W1 2026-07-26 WITH THE FOLLOWING BUILD RULINGS FOLDED IN (doyle; constraints live in the artifact, not the dispatch thread). VERB SURFACE: the operator-facing verbs are `spt adapter service list` (all registered options + derived state) and `spt adapter service status <adapter[:profile]>`, nested under the ADAPTER group — NOT a bare `spt service`. Reason: 'service' is ALREADY public surface carrying an unrelated meaning — the platform daemon-service abstraction (REQ-DAEMON-6/-8, `crates/spt-daemon/src/service.rs`: the systemd user unit vs the Windows at-logon task) surfaces in `spt daemon` help as 'registered OS service' / 'managed service' / 'the managing service label'. Ownership-scoping separates the two meanings permanently: the OS-service is the DAEMON's and lives under `spt daemon`; the resident service is the ADAPTER's and lives under `spt adapter`. ADR-0049's 'service status display' means `spt adapter service status`; the W1 PR carries a one-line ADR errata note. GIVE-UP LATCH SCOPE: the latch suppresses relaunch grinding until something plausibly changed — it is NOT a durable verdict. Cleared by exactly three events: (1) DAEMON BOOT — desired-state-running enumerates boot as a reconcile opportunity with NO latch exception, and the re-trip is bounded (N fast exits) and LOUD (STARTUP_FAULT re-fires each boot); an in-memory per-daemon-lifetime latch is an acceptable implementation, and if the durable-marker scaffolding is reused then boot clears the marker; (2) ADAPTER RE-REGISTRATION — declared intent that manifest/config changed, reconciling immediately; (3) UPDATE-HOLD RELEASE — new bits invalidate the fault evidence. NOT cleared by the first-shell-bind ensure: a bind changes nothing about the service's config, so the bind-time reconcile SKIPS latched services — otherwise ordinary shell use converts the latch into the very flap it exists to stop. The REJECTED alternative is recorded deliberately: a durable latch with explicit-clear-only leaves an operator's already-fixed config fault sitting behind a service that stays dead and quiet forever — loud-bounded beats quiet-permanent (the heal-assigns-owner-never-closes shape one layer down). SANCTIONED BUT NOT W1-REQUIRED: `spt adapter service restart <adapter[:profile]>` as the explicit manual clear+reconcile — take it into W1 only if cheap once the verb group exists; the three automatic clears ARE the requirement. REGISTRATION-TIME START IS A WIRE OP: `registry::register` runs in the CLI PROCESS (`crates/spt/src/cli.rs`, the adapter-add and adapter-update call sites), so it cannot itself start anything in the daemon — registration-starts-the-service structurally requires ONE new adapter-scoped daemon IPC op, semantically `AdapterServiceReconcile { adapter }` (exact spelling matched to house op style where it lands), which the CLI calls after a SUCCESSFUL register on BOTH paths when the daemon is reachable. The daemon handler runs THE SAME reconcile code path as boot / hold-release / bind — ONE reconcile function taking an opportunity discriminant, never a second start authority. The response is a per-option outcome list (started / already-running / held / latched / bind-deferred / startup-fault) so the CLI prints honest per-option text. Daemon NOT reachable: registration STILL SUCCEEDS — never a refusal — and the CLI prints a REQUIRED notice that the service is declared, the daemon is not running, and it will come up at the next daemon boot. That notice is CONTRACT, not courtesy. RUNTIME-DIR ENCODING: cardinality is per adapter-option, so the option name becomes a PATH component and `:` is illegal in a Windows path. Core NEVER uses the raw option string as a path component — every construction site goes through ONE shared encoder, and that encoding MUST BE INJECTIVE (a lossless escape, never a strip/replace that can collide). Two distinct options mapping to one runtime dir means two services sharing a quiesce-marker namespace: the silent flap one layer down. The unit gate MUST include a collision-adversarial pair (e.g. if `:` maps to `_`, then `a:b` and `a_b` must remain distinct). MODULE PLACEMENT: the supervisor lands as `servicehost.rs` (the established `*host` convention — shellhost, harnesshost, linkhost, applyhost); `service.rs` is untouched and BOTH module headers cross-reference the other meaning of 'service'. INSTALL-DIR RESOLUTION RIDES W1 (operator-requested via flynn, ruled in after code verification): the `[service]` spawn resolves its binary through the EXISTING REQ-INSTALL-11 helper — the same primitive, NO parallel resolution path — and the same wiring lands at the two shell-family fill sites, which today resolve NEITHER the install-dir program token NOR `{adapter_dir}`. Without it a `--release`-installed shell adapter registers but cannot spawn (bare token → os error 2; `{adapter_dir}/x` → 'no value for substitution key'), released shell adapters need a hand-maintained per-node manifest, `spt adapter update` on them is a permanent no-op, and THIS req's hold/swap/start ceremony would be exercisable by MOCK ONLY — never by the named first consumer. Site census discharged BEFORE build (authoritative grep, cfg(test) excluded, accepted by doyle): the production template-fill sites are `shellhost.rs::fill_spawn_command` and `shellwake.rs::fill_wake_command` (both targets — threading not shape, since the wake caller already holds `AdapterRecord.source_dir`, which IS the install dir), plus `harnesshost.rs` session `role.command`, which is OUT OF SCOPE and already resolves correctly through `resolve_program_in_dir`. Scope guard: shell spawn/wake + `[service]` ONLY — this does NOT expand into the `[session.self]`/`[history]` follow-on sites. FAULT COUNTERS ARE TWO, NOT ONE (ruled 2026-07-26 after the builder surfaced the reading): (1) the FAST-EXIT counter increments ONLY on exits whose uptime is UNDER the startup threshold, and RESETS the moment any run EXCEEDS that threshold. Without the reset the latch mislabels slow-crash decay as a configuration fault — the latch lying about cause, which is worse than no latch. STARTUP_FAULT is reserved for THIS path alone. (2) The ORDINARY consecutive-crash give-up (the shell wake-watcher scaffolding's `give_up_after` = 6, deliberately UPTIME-BLIND) sits BEHIND it UNCHANGED in W1 and keeps its existing diagnostic label — no silent behavior fork from the shell watcher. (3) BOTH counters reset on the latch-clear events above (daemon boot, adapter re-registration, update-hold release): a clear that left either counter primed would relatch on the first post-clear crash and thereby defeat the clear. (4) NOTED-OPEN, deliberately NOT W1 and NOT a promise: the ordinary counter's uptime-blindness means a service that crashes once a day gives up after six days and then stays down until a clear event. Whether that decay behavior is right for SERVICES (as opposed to the shell watchers it was designed for) is a future ruling; it is recorded here as open so the next builder inherits the question rather than rediscovering it in the field. ORPHAN ADOPTION IS IMAGE-VERIFIED, AND ITS PLATFORM GAP IS RECORDED-OPEN (ruled 2026-07-26 after the builder surfaced the trade): a fresh daemon kills a dead daemon's parked orphan ONLY by path-verified identity — a live pid whose image path cannot be READ classifies `Unverifiable` and BLOCKS adoption, i.e. the start refuses loudly rather than proceeding. Loud-blocked over quietly-double-started is this design's whole posture (a bare-pid kill is the recycled-pid class, and a double-start is the silent flap the cardinality rule exists to prevent). RECORDED-OPEN consequence, NOT debt owed by W1: the image oracle is `/proc` on unix, so a unix WITHOUT `/proc` (macOS/BSD) would block on every live orphan until that pid dies. This is theoretical for every platform we ship — win, linux-gnu, musl — and no macOS/BSD asset exists; a future builder adding one inherits the question here rather than rediscovering it in the field. SUPERVISOR PLACEMENT IS BROKER-SIDE (ruled 2026-07-26): the supervised set, its boot sweep and the reconcile control socket live in the BROKER process, beside the digest/drive/tunnel hubs — NOT in the restartable brain child that hosts shellwake. Two reasons, both structural. (a) A supervisor owns LIVE CHILD HANDLES and, from the update ceremony on, an in-memory HOLD: that is a daemon-lifetime continuity resource, which is the ADR-0018 Q2/Q5 broker-side test; the Q5 exception that put shellwake in the brain reads 'a pure disk-reconciler' and this is not one. (b) A brain restart is the ROUTINE UPDATE PATH (StartReason::Update exists precisely for it), so brain-hosting would bounce every resident service through the orphan-adoption path with no quiesce, no grace and no hold — the ungoverned bounce this req's ordered update operation exists to replace — and would lose the hold mid-swap. Broker-hosting is also what makes the wire op possible at all: all control sockets are broker-served because a CLI cannot reach brain memory (stated in drivehub.rs's module header and obeyed by every hub). NO PERIODIC SWEEP — CHOSEN, NOT OMITTED (ruled 2026-07-26): the supervisor host runs the boot sweep and then parks; there is deliberately no timer re-sweeping on a cadence. The four ruled opportunities are all EVENTS, each with a caller that enters the one reconcile function directly, so a timer would be a FIFTH start authority nobody ruled in — and its only distinctive work would be silently healing a failed registration nudge, converting a diagnosable defect into invisible behavior. The REQUIRED daemon-unreachable notice is the honest answer to that case; machinery that papers over its own failure class is refused (the same instrument-soundness razor as the rest of this design). A SUPERVISOR WHOSE DECLARATION DISAPPEARS RECONCILES TOWARD STOPPED (ruled into W1 2026-07-26): every sweep runs a STOP side before its start side — an option whose adapter is soft-deregistered, hard-removed, or whose manifest no longer declares a [service] is torn down through the handle that names its child. This is the symmetric half of desired-state-running, not an addition to it: without it a deregistered adapter's binary outlives its own registration until the daemon dies, which is exactly the ungoverned-lifetime shape this req abolishes. TREE TEARDOWN ON EVERY SUPERVISOR-INITIATED KILL (ruled 2026-07-26): the force-kill deadline is where the unconditional-kill promise is WRITTEN, but it is not the boundary of the problem — a supervised service's descendants are torn down on every kill the supervisor initiates, including daemon-shutdown stop_all and the stop-side sweep teardown. Descendants outliving THOSE paths are strictly worse off than ones outliving a force-kill, because the next daemon's orphan sweep is structurally blind to them: it knows one parked pid and holds no handle to anything below it. Windows reaches the tree through a SUPERVISOR-OWNED Job Object assigned at birth (CREATE_SUSPENDED -> AssignProcessToJobObject -> resume, so no descendant is ever spawned outside the job; KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE deliberately OFF, so a dying supervisor is never an unannounced service outage); unix through the process group setsid already establishes. Job-NEUTRALITY is not contradicted: that invariant governs OTHER people's jobs reaching our processes, which CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB still handles at birth. A job the OS refuses is a LOUD DEGRADE, never a refusal to start: the process still dies on demand and only its descendants become unreachable, which is exactly where this path stood before the job existed — refusing the spawn would convert a bounded descendant leak into a total outage over a failure in an OS facility rather than in anything the adapter declared. THE STATUS SURFACE IS DAEMON-ANSWERED OR IT SAYS NOTHING (ruled 2026-07-26, the leg-D companion of the tree-teardown ruling): the CLI NEVER derives service state from the pid file. Either the daemon answers `spt adapter service list|status` over the control socket, or the CLI prints that the daemon is not running — verbatim, and with no fallback read. The pid file is a KILL HANDLE for the NEXT daemon, and reading it as liveness in a display surface is the v0.43.0 STALE-ONLINE class one layer down: a record answering a question the record cannot know. Three properties follow and are requirements, not implementation taste. (a) The status op is a PROJECTION over the live supervised set — the supervision threads, the hold flags and the stand-down records — plus the registry; it starts, stops, holds and kills nothing, because a diagnostic that converges the thing it measures is a start authority wearing a diagnostic's clothes. (b) A row reports its EVIDENCE: a latch surfaces with the captured startup output behind it, since a fault reported without its cause is the instrument failing at its one job. (c) An option SUPERVISED WITHOUT A DECLARATION behind it is reported as exactly that rather than hidden — with no periodic sweep, a deregistered adapter's supervisor lives until the next opportunity's stop side reaches it, and that window is precisely when an operator asks what is running. THE ADVISORY STATUS LINE IS DISPLAY-ONLY AND BOUNDED: the service may write one line into its runtime dir (named in docs/MANIFEST.md beside the stop-request marker, so it is implementable); core reads the FIRST line under a byte cap, treats an unreadable file as simply no advisory (the locked-file split rule holds), and consults it for NO decision — core deciding on it would put a least-trusted binary's self-report in the control path, and a service that stopped updating it would silently become whatever it last claimed. WIRE LENIENCY IS PLACED, NOT SPRINKLED: fields a reader BRANCHES on stay typed with a `#[serde(other)]` unknown arm (KH-2.3), while a field only ever ECHOED carries the daemon's label verbatim — re-deriving a lenient copy of the manifest's validated `start` vocabulary for the wire would weaken the one place strictness matters (registration). An op an older daemon predates HANGS UP rather than reading the request and answering nothing: a server that silently ignores an unknown kind leaves the caller blocked on a reply that never comes, so an older daemon would WEDGE a newer CLI instead of failing it.",

VERB DIFFERENCES ARE ONLY ceremony + resulting intent (decision 3): shutdown = echo commune + shell cascade FIRST then teardown, result rest_state=suspended (wrap the EXISTING rest edge — apply_event already echoes before the flip per KH 3.3; do NOT reimplement the ordering); stop = NO ceremony, result terminal_normalize.

ROOT: controller_writer held the SharedSend = Arc<Mutex<SendHalf>> guard ACROSS a blocking write_frame; on Windows interprocess 2.4.2 routes the send to WriteFileEx + SleepEx(INFINITE, alertable) with NO supported write timeout (set_timeout → Unsupported), so an `rc --take` controller consumer that stops reading blocks the write INDEFINITELY (~127.95 s in the field capture, released only when a brain restart tore the conns down). Logical stall_evict_controller (REQ-HAZARD-BROKER-VIEWER-BRAIN-DECOUPLE) removes the controller ROLE but neither cancels the in-flight pipe write, closes the physical connection, nor invokes CancelIoEx — the detached writer keeps its SharedSend clone + live stack-owned mutex guard. Load-gated: needs a real seq>0 frame + a non-draining consumer (seq-0 boot conns + a quiescent update are clean — why v0.30.5's controlled apply passed); CTRL_WRITE_LOCKED wait_us=0 on all four capture writers exonerates the mutex convoy — the block is INSIDE the OS write, after lock acquisition. Existing deadlines can't bound it: CONTROLLER_WRITE_DEADLINE is output-driven channel-full handling (a writer blocked on its first owned frame never fills the channel); BRAIN_WRITE_DEADLINE is an age PREDICATE sampled opportunistically, not an I/O timer. FIX (accepted shape, doyle GO + 3 confirms): broker-owned Arc conn object (conn.rs BrokerConn) replacing raw Arc<Mutex<SendHalf>> — serialized write gate (bounded gate-wait) + send half (never leaves the object, so a bypass cannot compile) + idempotent poisoned state + per-in-flight op identity + platform abort seam, with an INDEPENDENT per-conn watchdog firing OUT OF BAND at an ABSOLUTE deadline stamped at write entry covering BOTH gate-wait and OS write completion (brain_write_deadline() — the existing SPT_BRAIN_WRITE_DEADLINE_MS knob; the abort NEVER relies on the write returning or on opportunistic stall-evict sampling). On deadline/partial/cancel/unknown completion: (1) poison the whole physical conn, (2) abort read+write (cfg(windows) CancelIoEx then DisconnectNamedPipe; cfg(unix) UnixStream::shutdown(Both)) so handle_conn reaches existing EOF cleanup, (3) wait for the canceled op to report completion before releasing its buffer (interprocess write_exsync returns only after the completion APC — release = write return), (4) NEVER reuse the conn (a timed-out length-prefixed frame may be partially written), (5) join/finish the retired writer before reporting physical cleanup. Controller (replay + live), viewer, dispatch-reply (send_frame/send_error + inline dispatch_* replies), and nethost stream-log/presence writes ALL route through the primitive — leaving ANY raw unbounded write behind the gate preserves the failure class (grep-proven: no surviving raw send.lock()+write_frame on a physical conn path).

OBSERVED: the published adapter sequence `api bind` then identity-preserving `api listen --session-id` produces a self-contradictory live record — controlled=true AND controllable=false on a broker-hosted PTY endpoint — which controlled-precedence masks blue while attached and which a DETACH then unmasks as amber HARNESS ONLY. Detach is not the root; it only reveals the bad stamp. SOURCE: api/startup.rs passes controllable=Some(false) UNCONDITIONALLY on the relay/listen path (~191-195, reasoning 'the harness owns the process, so there is no broker PTY'), and establish_perch resolves controllable = controllable.or_else(|| prior…) (~379) — explicit wins, so that Some(false) OVERWRITES the Some(true) an earlier `api bind` EARNED. The carry-forward discipline that protects cwd/adapter/rest_state does not protect this field precisely BECAUSE the listen path is not silent about it. The defect is an ASSUMPTION about hosting authority made by a path that does not know the answer. FIX (preferred): represent LISTENER CUSTODY separately from PTY HOSTING AUTHORITY, so establishing a listener says nothing about who owns the session surface. Merely preserving controllable=true when a broker-hosted session with that session_id exists is weaker — it leaves listen guessing rather than removing the guess. Gate: impl — listen no longer asserts hosting topology for a session it does not host; unit — the stamp resolution table over (prior controllable, listen path, broker-hosted session present); int — bind -> listen -> control -> detach ends at alive=true, controlled=false, controllable=true, display ONLINE. TITLE AMENDMENT 2026-07-27 (doyle ruling, todlando build; rides the build PR per registry-mints-ride-build-PRs): THE REQ PRESERVES A **LIVING** HOSTING ARRANGEMENT ACROSS LISTENER RE-BINDS; IT DOES NOT RESURRECT A DEAD ONE'S CAPABILITY STAMP. FIELD CASE: emphasys rendered ONLINE for 25+ minutes with BOTH recorded pids dead, because its listener-only wake re-bind INHERITED a controllable=Some(true) earned in an earlier broker-PTY life, and the reconcile sweep exempts Some(true) rows from relay-death convergence (livehost.rs) — so an expired capability stamp ROUTED a liveness proof and the row was exempt from EVERY liveness model. The carry-forward is now scoped: Some(true) survives a listener re-bind unless the prior record's RELAY pid is provably Gone. Liveness of the arrangement is judged via the relay-role pid (REQ-PID-ROLE-EVIDENCE), the first record-internal key that actually measures it — NOT via 'earning pid alive', which was falsified pre-build: for a BrokerPty row the record holds no pid of the hosting life at all, only the announcing CLI's.",

LIVE MEASUREMENT (todlando, HFENDULEAM 2026-07-27, the finding that forced this mint): todlando pid 22588 DEAD, doyle pid 45160 DEAD, deployah pid 29176 DEAD — all controllable=true, state=live_agent, status=online, and all three GENUINELY ALIVE AND WORKING (the measurement was taken by one of them, messaging another) — against hertz pid 11216 ALIVE and mobile-gw pid 46152 ALIVE, which are real `api listen` relays. The split is by adapter integration pattern (claude-spt binds and exits; omp-spt/mobile hold a listener), NOT by anything a reader can see in the record. CONSEQUENCE ALREADY PAID: two proposed fixes for the emphasys convergence gap were BOTH falsified pre-build on this fact — oracle-first convergence, and carry-forward scoped to 'earning pid alive' — each would have converged three live agents node-wide. Both were keyed on a pid whose meaning they could not read. FIX: stamp the role at the seam that writes the pid — `relay` on the listen path, `binder` on every bind path — never inferred at read time. Absent ⇒ legacy row ⇒ NO KNOWLEDGE, and every consumer fails toward alive (inheritance stands, convergence never fires); such rows heal at their next re-bind. Consumers re-key on it: relay-death convergence fires only on `relay`, and the controllable carry-forward drops a stamp only when a prior `relay` pid is provably Gone. CLASS: a claim keyed on the wrong thing (kin: `is_perch_alive` reading a status FIELD as hosting topology; the inherited capability stamp routing a liveness proof) — the cure is to make the record SAY the thing rather than have readers infer it.

ROOT (2026-07-09 field freeze, `spt update fetch --apply` v0.30.0->v0.30.2 froze all 7 live PTYs ~30s then rolled back): the promote gate (run_trial, brainproc.rs:657-661) needs BOTH `ready_generation==gen` AND `old_gen_drained()`; `old_gen_drained()` = `!any_local_controller_wedged()` (brainproc.rs:534) is a PURE READ of `write_blocked_since` (broker.rs:2703) — it never DRIVES the evict. The evict (`stall_evict_controller`, broker.rs:1039, same 15s `brain_write_deadline` the wedge-read uses) only runs via `reap_dead_controller` (broker.rs:967, severed->drop ELSE stall-evict) inside the KIND_SESSIONS snapshot closure (broker.rs:2879). During the isolated brain-trial window NOTHING polls KIND_SESSIONS: the old brain was hard-killed (`child.kill()`, brainproc.rs:851) so its local controller conn black-holes (live PTYs keep writing to a dead Windows named pipe -> writer BLOCKS, never EOFs) -> `write_blocked_since=Some` -> wedged=true for the full 30s -> gate false -> `WindowElapsedAlive` -> kill+rollback. The candidate DID reach ready (write_ready, brainproc.rs:211, runs before the loop; the v53 log's NET_FAMILY_GATE/PAIR_MEET_UP prove the loop was entered) — so `BRAIN_TRIAL_TIMEOUT: candidate alive but never ready` is the MISLEADING ready-stamped-but-never-DRAINED case, NOT a resume_sessions hang. SECOND LEG (recovery): post-rollback the gen-2 brain's KIND_SESSIONS poll finally reaps -> `BRAIN_SUBSCRIBER_STALL_EVICT:1` fires >15s late -> a session stayed black-holed through recovery -> continued freeze. ONE root, BOTH legs. FIX (BRAIN-SIDE, self-applying — doyle ruled brain-side to AVOID a broker-side coordinated-restart flag): the boot/trial heartbeat loop (brainproc.rs run_brain, currently only `net_status` at :244) also issues `Brain::sessions()` (KIND_SESSIONS, brain.rs:1397 — already exists) every heartbeat, driving the LIVE older broker's ALREADY-SHIPPED reap (>=v0.29.0 LIFECYCLE-TRUTH; the field-stuck broker is v0.30.0 so it HAS it). The old-gen wedged conn is stall-evicted ~15s < the 30s window -> `old_gen_drained()` flips true -> PROMOTE; the same poll on the rollback/recovery brain reaps promptly -> no >15s black-hole -> kills the STALL_EVICT recovery leg. Drive it on the FIRST heartbeat (no one-tick wait) and on BOTH the trial candidate AND the recovery brain (one loop covers both). SELF-APPLIES because it drives the current broker's existing reap verb — v54's brain fixes the v0.30.0->v54 update with NO coordinated broker restart.

ROOT: the floor was PARSED + required (manifest.rs) but never compared to the running core — dead enforcement; and the [update].version_check knob that gated it was DOC'D-BUT-DEAD (never read by any production path — a contract lie). RULINGS: RETIRE version_check (drop the manifest field + schema + docs + the cfg(test) literals; a pre-existing manifest still setting it deserializes fine — serde ignores the unknown key, no deny_unknown_fields, so retiring is back-compatible); SEMVER-compare NOT string-compare (the 0.9.0 < 0.25.0 lexical trap); enforce on BOTH verbs; nothing installs / registry untouched on refuse (binds both verbs, no residuals).

(2) ADD: the gate lives INSIDE registry::register (the choke point) via a register_with_core(core_version) seam register() delegates to with env!(CARGO_PKG_VERSION) — the floor check runs right after the manifest parse, BEFORE any registry write, returning the typed RegistryError::CoreFloor{adapter,core,floor} (Display = the ONE F-1 refusal both verbs surface); nothing recorded on refuse. (3) UPDATE: a PRE-SWAP peek (staged_floor_ok) extracts the staged .spt to a THROWAWAY temp, parses its manifest floor, and refuses BEFORE apply_release_crc_swap mutates the live pointer-mode home — so a refusal (or an unverifiable floor: FAIL-CLOSED) leaves the live install BYTE-UNTOUCHED; register@8932 stays as the defense-in-depth backstop for every other entry path. doyle bind: the register-only gate would let the crc-swap replace the live files with a floor-violating version while the record refuses (record and reality disagree — the exact contract-lie shape this milestone kills), so the pre-swap peek is the only correct answer.

ADR-0009 justified fail-open explicitly: the whitelist was 'a same-subnet convenience boundary layered inside subnet membership, not the system's outer wall', because every member node was the one user's own machine. The SHARED SUBNET ruling breaks that premise — member nodes now belong to different human operators and the access layer gates agents — and a boundary that evaporates when its store file corrupts is not a boundary an operator can reason about. So a store that CANNOT BE READ refuses unlisted-subject traffic on every surface rather than admitting it, and says so on the refusing node naming the store path (silence plus refusal reads as network failure and burns diagnosis time). TWO THINGS SURVIVE THE DEGRADE: the stateful-firewall reply exemption (correlation state is a separate file keyed on the endpoint's own recent outbound — a degraded node keeps its own conversations alive) and the same-node loopback Allow. THE SPLIT THAT MAKES THIS SHIPPABLE: an ABSENT store file is NOT a degrade. It is the unconfigured baseline — every fleet node today has no access.json, and reading absence as closed would refuse all unsolicited cross-node traffic fleet-wide on upgrade. The two cases split on std::io::ErrorKind::NotFound and nothing else: never-created reads as an empty store whose chain bottoms out open; any other io error or a parse failure is a degrade. Absent-is-open keeps an unconfigured fleet reachable, unreadable-is-closed makes the boundary real. Consequence accepted per ADR-0053: a personal fleet with zero configured rules now blocks unsolicited cross-node traffic if its store file CORRUPTS — the failure is loud, local, and repairable, and the alternative (silent admission on a shared subnet) is the worse lie. Existing fail-open tests are repinned to the new contract as part of this diff (a product contract change, not a test fixup).

FIX: route an inbound send for an spt-hosted target through the daemon → broker InputReq → session.write_input PTY-inject (broker.rs dispatch_input/write_input ~988-1022), the same path the brain uses; the live-delivery handshake must report Sent (not Queued) and stop the spool-only fallback for a broker-hosted, PTY-resident endpoint. Detection is local: controllable==Some(true) + spt-hosted state + resolve_address==None. = the spt-core HALF of the wall-b finding (perri owns the adapter half: bind-hook fired-zero-perch + the missing endpoint-run int test).

ROOT (2026-07-09 field freeze, `spt update fetch --apply` v0.30.0->v0.30.2 froze all 7 live PTYs ~30s then rolled back): the promote gate (run_trial, brainproc.rs:657-661) needs BOTH `ready_generation==gen` AND `old_gen_drained()`; `old_gen_drained()` = `!any_local_controller_wedged()` (brainproc.rs:534) is a PURE READ of `write_blocked_since` (broker.rs:2703) — it never DRIVES the evict. The evict (`stall_evict_controller`, broker.rs:1039, same 15s `brain_write_deadline` the wedge-read uses) only runs via `reap_dead_controller` (broker.rs:967, severed->drop ELSE stall-evict) inside the KIND_SESSIONS snapshot closure (broker.rs:2879). During the isolated brain-trial window NOTHING polls KIND_SESSIONS: the old brain was hard-killed (`child.kill()`, brainproc.rs:851) so its local controller conn black-holes (live PTYs keep writing to a dead Windows named pipe -> writer BLOCKS, never EOFs) -> `write_blocked_since=Some` -> wedged=true for the full 30s -> gate false -> `WindowElapsedAlive` -> kill+rollback. The candidate DID reach ready (write_ready, brainproc.rs:211, runs before the loop; the v53 log's NET_FAMILY_GATE/PAIR_MEET_UP prove the loop was entered) — so `BRAIN_TRIAL_TIMEOUT: candidate alive but never ready` is the MISLEADING ready-stamped-but-never-DRAINED case, NOT a resume_sessions hang. SECOND LEG (recovery): post-rollback the gen-2 brain's KIND_SESSIONS poll finally reaps -> `BRAIN_SUBSCRIBER_STALL_EVICT:1` fires >15s late -> a session stayed black-holed through recovery -> continued freeze. ONE root, BOTH legs. FIX (BRAIN-SIDE, self-applying — doyle ruled brain-side to AVOID a broker-side coordinated-restart flag): the boot/trial heartbeat loop (brainproc.rs run_brain, currently only `net_status` at :244) also issues `Brain::sessions()` (KIND_SESSIONS, brain.rs:1397 — already exists) every heartbeat, driving the LIVE older broker's ALREADY-SHIPPED reap (>=v0.29.0 LIFECYCLE-TRUTH; the field-stuck broker is v0.30.0 so it HAS it). The old-gen wedged conn is stall-evicted ~15s < the 30s window -> `old_gen_drained()` flips true -> PROMOTE; the same poll on the rollback/recovery brain reaps promptly -> no >15s black-hole -> kills the STALL_EVICT recovery leg. Drive it on the FIRST heartbeat (no one-tick wait) and on BOTH the trial candidate AND the recovery brain (one loop covers both). SELF-APPLIES because it drives the current broker's existing reap verb — v54's brain fixes the v0.30.0->v54 update with NO coordinated broker restart. Forward-compat: brokers <v0.29.0 have neither the DRAINED gate nor the reap, so older-broker updates never hit this path — no regression.

ROOT (field-pinned 2026-07-09, daemon.stderr.log L24277-24303): the update-restart path hard-kills the outgoing brain (`child.kill()`, brainproc.rs:851); its live-agent controller conns then block on dead pipes (never EOF) → the broker reads them WEDGED (broker.rs:2695-2700) → the new candidate's promotion DRAINED gate (`any_local_controller_wedged`, broker.rs:2704) stays true until the W2 stall-evict matures (~15s).

TRIAGE-DRIFT (sweep-dispatch-site-counts discipline): the triage named 3 sites (broker.rs:1163 flush_inject_floor / :1297 inject-worker-open / :2142 buffer_if_held) as the surviving class, but ALL 3 are the INJECT FLOOR and were ALREADY poison-proofed by REQ-HAZARD-INJECT-WORKER-POISON (lock_floor, shipped post-triage — the FLOOR HALF is SUBSUMED, this seed redirects).

Rationale: fail-fast on the log reintroduces the very wedge B-1 kills (poisoned log = every subscriber attach panics forever); blind recover serves torn bytes; clamp-or-reset costs only scrollback that self-heals on the next PTY output + repaint (lost scrollback << permanent wedge, torn-serve eliminated not tolerated).

FIX: serve_attach catches the output-gap on the controller path (does not ?-propagate) and re-subscribes from Brain::controller_resume_floor (= delivered_through = the gap's `want`; NO mid-stream KIND_SESSIONS round-trip — sessions() loops on read_event and would re-fatal on the same gap + discard Output); the broker replays the dropped frames. The IRRECOVERABLE edge (floor unchanged across two resumes = ring rolled past delivered_through = frames gone) surfaces a MARKED truncation to the operator (never silent-skip = B2 lie, never spin) and ends cleanly — full graceful handling deferred to REQ-HAZARD-CONTROLLER-IRRECOVERABLE-BEHIND.

ROOT (doyle, instrumented RACEDIAG repro on kitsubito): on a brain-restart re-serve the handoff brain registers as controller on the SAME session TWICE over the SAME `Brain::conn` socket — (1) `Brain::handoff` eagerly `subscribe(prior.session_id, prior.next_seq=1)` → `become_controller(from_seq=1)`, initial=[1], spawns writer-A (writes seq 1); (2) `serve_attach` re-handles the replayed `Request{from_seq:0}` → `attach_as(sid,0)` → `become_controller(from_seq=0)`, initial=[0,1], spawns writer-B (writes 0 then 1). `become_controller` (broker.rs) drops the prior `ControllerSink` (its `tx`) but does NOT stop the prior writer thread — writer-A keeps flushing its owned `initial` batch, and both writers hold clones of the same `SharedSend` (`Arc<Mutex<socket>>`) with NO inter-thread ordering. When writer-A's seq 1 wins the socket before writer-B's seq 0, the strict legacy consumer (brain.rs read_event reject-gap path) sees `output gap: got seq 1 want 0` → the test `attach_survives_target_brain_restart_exactly_once` panics at `.expect(\"re-serve\")` OR HANGS in `render_until` (serve thread died on the gap → MARKER_TWO never reaches the wire). `prior.next_seq` is life1's CONSUMPTION cursor, NOT life2's connection state — life2's socket has been sent NOTHING, so a `from_seq=0` full replay on a connection that already streamed seq 1 is contradictory. Snap-above tolerance ALONE can't fix it (it would dedup-drop the late seq 0 → byte loss → the exactly-once byte-identity assert fails). PRE-EXISTING, surfaced by the v0.13.0 green-both-runners release gate; P1b is INNOCENT (its diff touches only input-ack machinery, proven mechanically + the test passes post-P1b in isolation). Sibling flaky cluster: `inject_control_wedge::g2`, `broker::spawn_env_reaches_child`. INVARIANT: on a single brain↔broker connection the controller output-frame stream is monotonic non-decreasing in seq (modulo dedup re-sends); exactly ONE `controller_writer` is ever live per connection; a SUPERSEDED writer writes NO further frames; a re-serve never replays a seq below what the connection already received. FIX (doyle design, corrected at the gate 2026-06-20): fix #1 as designed ('drop handoff's eager subscribe so serve_attach's attach_as is the sole registration') was REVERTED — handoff's `subscribe(prior.next_seq)` IS the standalone-resume mechanism (the brain-only update engine `apply_brain_only` + the `handoff`/`idempotent`/`daemon_e2e` int tests replay output through it with NO `serve_attach`; dropping it hung every resume-via-handoff test). The shipped fix is three parts: (1) CORRECTNESS — `Brain::handoff` seeds `session_cursors` at `prior.next_seq` so the consumer runs the production dedup-below+snap-above path, never the strict reject-gap legacy trap; this is COMPLETE (not merely tolerant) because every `controller_writer` emits an ASCENDING seq stream and the surviving writer (serve_attach's attach_as(sid,0)) offers the complete `[0,end]` range, so a snap-above merge of ascending writers delivers `[K,end]` with no skip/dup (first sighting of any seq>M is preceded by M on that writer). (2) INVARIANT — `controller_writer`'s INITIAL-BATCH replay is epoch-gated: `controller_epoch` is a shared `Arc<AtomicU64>`, the writer re-reads it UNDER `send.lock()` (atomically with `write_frame`) and returns the instant it is superseded — no check-then-block-then-write window, no superseded replay (W1-safe: never blocks the drain under `Mutex<OutputLog>`). The LIVE loop is NOT gated (new output only flows to the current controller; a superseded writer must still deliver its terminal `Displaced` kick — gating it suppressed the loud-take notice; it ends on `tx`-drop). (3) EXPLICIT-RESUME / OPERATOR-STREAM BOUNDARY (the LOAD-BEARING fix — kitsubito RACEDIAG ~33% repro the keystones missed) — `Brain::subscribe_with` (shared by attach/attach_as) resets the resume-mode dedup cursor to `from_seq`. The handoff eager subscribe makes serve_attach's brain receive the replay's seq K BEFORE the operator Request is processed (`attached`=false); that frame is dropped by the if-attached forward gate but the snap-above cursor already advanced past K, and `attach_as(sid,0)`'s re-subscribe used to leave the cursor advanced → the broker's re-send of seq K arrives below it, deduped, never forwarded → operator viewport forward-gap (silent content loss in the real rc consumer). Resetting to from_seq on the attach_as re-subscribe re-delivers from 0 (operator dedups the overlap) so seq K reaches the viewport. The epoch gate (2) is sound (RACEDIAG: zero socket interleaving above K); cold-start brains (empty map — production dispatch serve) keep the legacy next_seq path, so production is unaffected.

THE ORIGIN: serve_attach (spt-daemon/src/attach.rs) processes the dispatcher-pinned `seed_request` through handle_attach_request BEFORE its event loop (ADR-0038 B, the durable-opener seed — it exists because a ROLLED ring can no longer replay the Request). It then subscribes the stream from the floor and enters the loop, whose `AttachRecord::Request` arm calls handle_attach_request UNCONDITIONALLY — there is NO `!attached` guard, and NO record that the seed already established this exact Request. When the ring has NOT rolled, the wire replay still carries that Request, so the SAME record is handled TWICE on the SAME conn, milliseconds apart, with identical (session_id, from_seq, intent, gen, identity) — exactly hertz's v0.39.4 bug-4 capture (conn1011, 15ms apart, post-refresh replay).

Retention is NONDESTRUCTIVE: PRESENCE_DIAL_FAILED demotes the cached route to suspect (skipped in favor of the roster leg while suspect, superseded by any validated fresher address from connect write-back or reconcile), never deletes a sole route; removal only via validated-fresher replacement or roster tombstone. Validated roster addresses RECONCILE into the cache at daemon startup and on roster merge (beyond gapfill's fill-only: validated-fresher replaces failed/suspect rows) — recovery is connection-independent. Amends REQ-CONV-1's drop-on-fail mechanism; peeraddrs.rs/pump doc-comment truth rides the same change. Gate: impl — chain + demote + reconcile; unit — chain order incl. id-mismatch roster row resolves nothing + suspect row survives N failures with no replacement + reconcile replaces suspect with validated-fresher; int — rides REQ-HAZARD-MESH-BOOTSTRAP-TRAP D-legs; doc — ADR-0039 + CONTEXT peer-route chain entry.

    "title_a": "A-3 (REMOTE-TRUTH triage §A + Q3 operator-law): a BARE-id rest verb (spt wake/suspend <id>) routes across the subnet like send's fallback instead of failing local-only. ROOT (certain): cmd_rest (cli.rs:3296) gates the remote arm on id.contains('@'|':'); a bare id falls to the local-only arm (cli.rs:3340) → daemon_rest_event → info::read_info miss (resting.rs:248) → 'WOKE_FAIL:{id}: info.json absent or unreadable — not a hosted perch'. cmd_send (cli.rs:5142) DOES fall back on a local miss; cmd_rest's remote arm (cli.rs:3307, wan_rest) already handles every WanRestOutcome — it is simply never reached on a bare-id local miss. Contradicts CONTEXT:286 'a wake must route'. Q3 SUBSTRATE GAP: resolve_across_visible (registry.rs:971) filters only by Status::routable() and its Ambiguity payload is node-hexes-only — it CANNOT express the Q3 status rule; per-candidate (node,status) comes from SubnetRegistry::instances(id). FIX: a NEW pure select_rest_target helper (status-aware, isolated from resolve_across_visible which cmd_send keeps) applying GOAL-SATISFACTION semantics (ADR/triage addendum @188d269, NOT naive verb symmetry — the mixed case breaks symmetry): wake is an ∃-goal (satisfied when ANY instance Active), suspend is a ∀-goal (satisfied when ALL instances Suspended); one helper parameterized by the verb's satisfaction predicate — 0 candidates→NotFound; goal already satisfied→NoOp naming the satisfying node(s); exactly 1 ACTIONABLE (not-at-target) instance→Act(node); >1 actionable→Ambiguous(copy-paste id@node list). Edge rulings: wake with >1 Active = NoOp naming ALL active nodes (NOT Ambiguous — nothing actionable); suspend mixed (X suspended + Y active, NOT ∀-satisfied) = Act(Y) if exactly one active / Ambiguous if several active. Candidate status is ADVERTISED/gossiped (post-A-1 shared-derivation, may be STALE) so a NoOp verdict is ADVISORY and the qualified id@node path is the operator override (noted in the helper doc-comment). cmd_rest's bare-id local miss loads snapshots → instances(id) → select_rest_target → dispatches (Act→wan_rest to the node / NoOp naming node(s) / Ambiguous render_refusal copy-paste id@node list / NotFound NO_ENDPOINT), all F-1 public language from day one. Qualified id@node path unchanged; shutdown leg-2 stays LOCAL_ONLY. Red-first: a bare id present ONLY in a remote registry snapshot routes to that node instead of WOKE_FAIL.",
