BDR-059 + LRN-110 + LRN-111. Confirmed A's ask-gate covers component_builder
(mcp__ scope) — no code fix possible or attempted, it's third-party package
code (dist/utils/callback-server.js:36). README MCP section now documents
the risk and why the mitigation is ask-gating, not patching.
BDR-058 + LRN-109. Root cause of the "referenced files absent" finding:
the skills CLI's skillPath only fetches SKILL.md, never sibling
references/scripts/templates dirs. Upstream HEAD matched the already-
recorded lockfile hash exactly (no drift, no tamper) — reinstalled the
full tree at that pinned SHA, detached HEAD so nothing can silently
advance. Reinstall happened outside this repo (~/.agents); this commit
is the only repo-side record. Backup of the old single-file dir kept.
BDR-057: secrets by reference not by value; redact at capture, not just at
rest. Documents the two-part job7 posture (MCP ${VAR} expansion + rtk-rewrite
env-dump redaction) and flags the unreconciled contradiction with job6's
same-day (wrong) finding that ${VAR} expansion was unsupported at user scope.
BDR-026 updated: the backup-vector incident (2026-07-02) is closed at the
source rather than by repeated scrubbing — every native auto-backup taken
while the live file held the plaintext value was a fresh leak, so scrubbing
existing backups alone would have recurred forever.
LRN-108: `claude mcp add --env KEY=value` writes the value literally —
double- vs single-quoting around `${VAR}` is the entire difference between
a reference and a plaintext-forever config. The natural way to type the
flag (bash-expand it first) is exactly the trap.
Also refreshed .audit/scan-secrets-claude-home.json to the post-purge state
(15 residual hits, down from 18 pre-D).
BDR-056: deps policy reversal — latest gated by integration, not
KEEP-PINNED by default (job6-batch-3 override, gstack #1911 case).
LRN-107: read-only subagent mandates must ban copying secret VALUES,
not just mutations (job6's own MAGIC_API_KEY scratch-copy incident).
EVAL-020: job6 execution quality — 2 real STOP gates hit and resolved
live (graphifyy hook rewrite declined, gsd-pi format break patched).
EVAL-019: job4 test-gap audit + execution summary (11 specs, 5 fixes/
seams, every mutation red-green verified, zero residual, /tmp-exhaustion
incident + recovery, SPEC-06 checkpoint honesty, J4-22 caller-census
flag).
LRN-106: fixing B1 in one file != closing the B1 pattern. job3-B1
froze a fixture + repointed run-reconcile.sh's T2 off the live
registry, declared unblocked, 20/20 green — job4's very next audit
pass found T3/T5 in the SAME FILE still reading the live registry,
same fragility, untouched siblings. Now actually closed (SPEC-10).
journal: 2026-07-06 (cont. 2) entry.
EVAL-018: job3 shipped, 46/46 findings verified, 20/23 fixes applied
(B1 blocked on sentinel scope, D2-D5+B6 skipped by decision), zero
residual on final re-sweep. LRN-105: explorer subagents need an
explicit ban on executing the subject-under-test's own CLI, not just
"read-only" framing (caught mid-run: a subagent ran `graphify .`).
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.

--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.

Capitalize the doc-sync coupled chantier: BDR-036 (the invariant, 3 honesties engraved — built-not-reordered, MINOR non-gated surface-replaces-gate, init-project partial + sweep scope-expansion); LRN-058 (same bug-class != same fix — verify the twin's precondition); LRN-059 (swap flips meanings, sweep caught prior-chantier debt README:153 != letter-suffix insertion); LRN-060 (fail-closed guard proven by what it refuses, loudly; argv not separator-string); EVAL-008 (28/28 real-exec, anomalies surfaced). Journal 2026-06-27. BLK-010/011 flags + the frozen plan + TODO checkmarks. BLK-011 record left at STEP 13 (append-only); only the TODO locator moved to STEP 12 (live locator vs immutable record).

Capitalizes the design-gate §4 anim-lib suggestion (commit 11792cc):
- BDR-033: §4 = suggest-only, non-blocking, stateless 1-line; marker rejected
(conditional on stakes — a non-destructive note != a destructive op's
deterministic marker, cf LRN-046/047).
- LRN-049: stateless-minimal surface > state marker for non-destructive repeated
nudges (conditional on stakes).
- LRN-050: on a symlinked/live file, show-before-write is the only control gate.
- journal: two lines under 2026-06-25 (the §4 wiring + the process note).

- EVAL-006: 6 dangers TDD-closed, validated on the real learnings.md
(0 fidelity false-positive vs 13); honest limits (SAFE != USEFUL, RED-7/8 open).
- LRN-046 deterministic oracle > semantic judge on destructive skills.
- LRN-047 a noisy safety guard (13/13 FP) is a risk, not discomfort.
- LRN-048 a "0/OK/pass" must prove it looked (counted both sides).
