Live failure (run 2): the checklist printed above AskUserQuestion never
reached the user. Fix is structural: the checklist is never written to a
file (throwaway — PENDING.json + live runbook regenerate it in any
session) and every hand-back/re-display ends the turn with the full
checklist as the FINAL text, no tool call after it. Cold resume without a
report regenerates + re-displays. Artifacts 5 -> 4 files; bootstrap
gitignore step drops NEXT.sh; mistakes/red-flags updated (no tool call
after the print, no file 'for reference').
First-real-run UX feedback (EVAL-016): one command per line as typed in an
interactive session (ssh opens the box, following lines run on it, local
steps flagged), never folded ssh compounds; the hand-back prints the full
checklist in the conversation (and every re-hand-back reprints it). Step
defined as a block (header + command lines to next blank line), @delta
governs the block. Template restyled to match.
Session capture for the /reconcile pass + the BLK-013 fix-forward build:
- journal 2026-07-01: reconcile real-state (1 actionable / 3 upstream /
3 deferred / release live), (c) TODO drift, (a) npm guard built.
- BLK-013: append Update — fix-forward now BUILT (1f2c1cc); was
"script hardening NOT built". Now fully resolved (env + script).
- BLK-014 + BDR-046: append Update — MERGED 2393ca5, supersedes the
stale "pending merge". Records that BDR-046 already settled the
"canal d'install" question (native installer, no `elif npm` branch).
Append-only (Update blocks, last-block-wins) — no past entry rewritten;
verified reconcile_blk_open now returns only the true upstream trio.

BLK-013 fix-forward. Step 1 checked `node >=22` but never verified npm.
On a host where node was already recent, NODE_OK short-circuited the
installer and npm was never touched — yet GSD (gsd-pi) and ctx7 install
via `npm install -g`, so a missing npm made `make plugin` die Error 127
mid-run (distro `apt install nodejs` can ship npm as a separate package).
Add an unconditional npm guard right after the Node block:
corepack enable npm → distro package-manager install fallback → fatal
exit 1 with an actionable message if still absent. Happy path (npm
present) skips the whole block: zero behavior change on healthy machines.
shellcheck clean (only pre-existing SC1091 infos), bash -n OK. Fresh
npm-less apt host validation still pending. Closes TODO (a) 2026-06-30.

/reconcile show-only surfaced 7 open [ ] boxes under the
`## Helper --help` section headed [WON'T-BUILD 2026-06-30]. The chantier
was killed (BDR-001 won't-build, measured non-rentable) but the build
subtasks stayed unchecked → naive `grep '[ ]'` counted them as open work.
Mark them [-] (cancelled) so declared state matches reality. The ⛔
WON'T-BUILD prose already frames them as "historique, non actionnables".
Naive open-count 10→3; survivors are genuine deferred-open (context-file
2e passage, zenquality cross-repo, install-plugins npm harden).
Registries left untouched (reconcile is read-only there; BLK-014/BDR-046
"pending merge" staleness is a /prune-memory concern, not this).

BDR-044: auto-skill-dispatch chantier retired won't-build — 3rd measured moot
of the session (after --help, darwin re-baseline). Cartography showed L1
(superpowers "1%->MUST invoke") already over-determines routing -> reframed
from "does it route" (yes) to DISCERNMENT; risk inverted under->over. Measured
in real fresh sessions (8 prompts/3 classes): clear->route, ambiguous->ask,
trivial->abstain — model discriminates, no over-routing. Adding L2 prose =
phantom value + degradation risk. LRN-083: subagents are an invalid instrument
for measuring main-loop spontaneous routing (SUBAGENT-STOP + delegated framing
pin to the no-route floor) — retired the 0/6 subagent RED. LRN-080 corroborated
(3-in-a-row). TODO -> won't-build. Claude composed all -> trailers (4th
application of LRN-081).

Append-only correction bullet to LRN-081: memory-commit.sh does NOT append
trailers (git commit -m verbatim, memory-commit.sh:86, no hook/template);
trailers are model-composed message content; control point = the MESSAGE, not
the helper. Proven by 532ae69 (bare msg → no trailers) → c09f2b2 (amended).
Phrasing cleanup of the false wording (body + Index cell) deferred to
/prune-memory. Claude-composed → trailers (LRN-081 rule, 3rd application).

LRN-082: a trigger-cleared on a multi-motif exclusion lifts only the named
motif. BDR-043 cleared BDR-015's broken-symlink ground (a) but not its
external-ownership ground (b) → the darwin re-baseline is phantom value
(would edit the gstack submodule, LRN-070; results.tsv gone anyway). TODO (b)
resolved-MOOT (not done, not open). Trailers present: Claude composed LRN-082
+ the moot note — LRN-081's own rule, 2nd application.

LRN-081: Claude commit trailers only on Claude-COMPOSED content; a commit merely staging user-authored text gets none (staging != authorship). TODO reconcile: checked L26 'Cleanup machine courante' DONE (make plugin EXIT=0 this session ran Step 8.5, fs-verified strays absent); added (a) harden install-plugins.sh Step 1 npm-via-corepack (BLK-013 fix-forward) + (b) darwin re-baseline of the 5 ex-broken skills (BDR-043). Trailers present here because Claude composed the LRN + TODO formulations (LRN-081's own rule) — unlike e591510 which staged raw user text.

Capitalize the /reconcile dogfood on fresh live drift. Distinct from EVAL-011
(BUILD: fixture RED/GREEN + self-dogfood) — EVAL-013 = USAGE on real repo,
proving 2 things the build eval did not: (a) finds UNANTICIPATED gaps (3 stale
[branch …] headers = header-marker drift class beyond checkbox drift), (b) rejects
a FALSE POSITIVE off-fixture (--help candidate, both WON'T-BUILD → aligned).
'this run' wording kept — value proven, not zero-false-positive guaranteed
(consistent with the skill's engraved honest-limits). action keep.

Append the "Auto-déclenchement des skills par intention" chantier to TODO.md as NEXT — measure-first (twin of BDR-001 --help): behavioral RED before any design, scope bounded to clear/unambiguous intent signals. Design opens only if the RED proves value.
--help chantier ABANDONED after measurement (not built — nothing to build):
- BDR-001 append (won't-build 2026-06-30): behavioral RED, 6 reps (/web-validate
+ /harden, no instruction) → 6/6 already render help AND stop without dispatch;
residual value = format consistency only → ROI insufficient on a solo repo.
Original Decision/Why/Rejected intact (append-only); Index status cell updated.
- LRN-080: measure if the model already does X before adding an instruction to
make it do X — the behavioral RED kills phantom-value additions. Links LRN-075.
- TODO: chantier requalified WON'T-BUILD (3rd state — not done, not open).

- LRN-073 — a skill's worked-example must use FICTIONAL ids, never live registry
ids (they prime real-data behavior). The RED-7 root-cause lesson.
- LRN-074 — system grep/awk may be ugrep/mawk: don't assume flag-parsing, use
/usr/bin/grep, watch the RED go red. 4th command-assumption miss this session →
engraved as a recurring pattern-family (alongside fail-silent LRN-066/071).
- EVAL-010 — prune-memory hardening: RED-7 deterministic fix + RED-8 accept +
34-row backfill; anomalies incl the real-time false-green catch and the near-
collision with the existing EVAL-009 (caught by reading first).
- journal 2026-06-29 (cont. 3) + TODO chantier section; BLK-011 finish/push marked.

Pass-D index hygiene (LRN-055): the Index tables had drifted — 34 body entries
present but missing their Index row (decisions 11, learnings 21, blockers 2; evals
clean). All pre-existing, from before the coupled-capitalize machinery (BDR-034)
that keeps new entries indexed. Composed each row from its entry (decisions/blockers:
title/date/status; learnings: heading title as Pattern + condensed future-application
as Applies-to — the 5 awk-missed ones re-read from the body, 4 corrected a nuance the
title alone dropped). Inserted in ID-sorted slots. STEP-4 verify: zero MISSING/ORPHAN.
Also moved one pre-existing out-of-order row: LRN-021 (stranded at the LRN-008/009
boundary) -> its sorted slot between LRN-020 and LRN-022. Index now 100% ID-sorted.

- BLK-011 → resolved by REMOVAL (not by committing the orphan), with the TRUE
reason engraved: speculatively auto-bootstrapping an unused multi-session engine
at project creation is bad on its own terms. The initial "redundant with TODO"
framing is explicitly marked WRONG (gsd >> roadmap; TODO != gsd ROADMAP) — a
false reason that won't mislead a future reader. Reasoning trace kept: both
premises refuted on read, conclusion held for the stronger reason.
- LRN-072 — a stranded-artifact bug can be fixed by NOT creating the artifact
(negative diff), not by plumbing its commit; before building machinery, ask if
the PRODUCING step is wanted. Speculative-at-creation -> remove; deliberate-on-
demand -> keep. Family: BLK-010, BLK-011, BDR-036.
- journal 2026-06-29 (cont. 2) + TODO: BLK-011 line flipped, chantier section,
MINOR-gate FINISH marked merged. Index rows updated (blockers + learnings).

- BDR-040 — doc-syncer MINOR-shape oracle: deterministic floor under the LLM's
MINOR call; engraved limit (structural/size, NOT semantic — reduction of
RISK-1's gross cases, not elimination); option B (blocking gate) rejected
(contradicts BDR-036); branch-guard deferred.
- LRN-071 — fail-loud must cover the helper's OWN commit, not just its inputs;
named as the 3rd occurrence of the swallowed-commit pattern, linked to LRN-066
+ LRN-068/BLK-012; future application = audit every fallible op whose result
gates a downstream "success".
- journal 2026-06-29 (cont.) + TODO chantier section + line-266 flip to done.
Index rows added for both BDR-040 and LRN-071.
