artdag: Phase 7 consumes lib/maude mau/confluent? (no bespoke confluence checker)

The CID-stability check now calls mau/confluent? / mau/non-joinable-pairs from
lib/maude/confluence.sx (merged in) instead of re-implementing critical-pair
analysis inside lib/artdag. Picks up confluence.sx via the architecture merge.

+; A node {:op :inputs :params :commutative} <-> a maude (mau/app op (args...)).
+; Inputs become argument subterms (recursively from the DAG). A trailing
+; "artdag:meta" subterm carries the params (a write-to-string token) and the

+;; lib/maude/confluence.sx — critical-pair / local-confluence checking.
+;;
+;; A terminating equation set is confluent iff every critical pair is joinable
+;; (Knuth-Bendix / Newman). A critical pair arises when two oriented equations
+;; overlap: a non-variable subterm of one LHS unifies with the other LHS, giving
+;; two ways to rewrite the overlap; they must reduce to the same normal form.
+;;
+;; This needs TWO-SIDED unification (variables on both sides), not the one-sided
+;; matching the reducer uses — so this file carries its own syntactic unifier.
+;;
+;; SCOPE / honesty: the unifier is SYNTACTIC. For free/constructor operators the
+;; check is exact. For assoc/comm (AC) operators it sees only syntactic overlaps
+;; (full AC-unification is NP/infinitary — out of scope), but joinability is
+;; tested with `mau/ac-equal?` (canonical form modulo the theory), so AC laws are
+;; joined correctly even though their overlaps are under-approximated. Conditional
+;; and `owise` equations are not oriented (skipped).

+;; lib/maude/matching.sx — equational matching modulo assoc/comm/id (Phase 3).
+;;
+;; The chisel. Syntactic matching (reduce.sx) returns at most one substitution;
+;; matching modulo a theory is MULTI-VALUED — `X + Y` against `a + b + c` (with
+;; _+_ assoc comm) has several solutions. `mau/mm` returns the full list of
+;; substitutions; callers (rule application) pick.
+;;
+;; Operator theories come from the signature attributes, collected into a dict
+;; OP-NAME -> {:assoc B :comm B :id ELT}. Matching dispatches on the head op's
+;; theory:
+;;   free        positional, exact arity
+;;   comm        binary, try both argument orderings
+;;   assoc       flatten the f-spine, match the pattern sequence against the
+;;               subject sequence (variables grab contiguous blocks)
+;;   assoc+comm  flatten, match as multisets (variables grab sub-multisets)
+;; Identity (id: e) lets a variable grab the empty block, contributing e.
+;;
+;; Equational rewriting (mau/ac-reduce) extends each f-AC equation l=r to
+;; f(REST..., l) -> f(REST..., r) so a rule fires on any sub-multiset of an
+;; AC term, then renormalises to a fixpoint. A candidate rewrite is taken only
+;; if it changes the AC-canonical form (mau/canon) — idempotency/identity
+;; matches that would re-fire forever are skipped, guaranteeing progress.

+;; Reflection: a term can be represented AS DATA — another term — and meta-level
+;; functions interpret that representation. In Maude this is the META-LEVEL
+;; (upTerm/downTerm, metaReduce, metaApply, ...). Here object terms are already
+;; SX dicts; the META representation re-encodes a term as a term built from the
+;; meta-constructors `mt-var` and `mt-app`, so a represented term is itself a
+;; first-class object term you can build, inspect, and transform.

+;;   up-term(f(a,b))   = mt-app(f, up(a), up(b))
+;;   down-term reverses.
+;;
+;; Meta-operations reflect object-level behaviour: metaReduce of a represented
+;; term in a module = the representation of its normal form, etc. The

+Maintained by the read-only `radar` loop (see `plans/agent-briefings/radar-loop.md`).
+Detection only — implementation is a separate, coordinated step owned by the
+relevant subsystem loop, never by radar.
+
+**AHA gate to reach _Proposed_:** ≥3 real consumers · all past Phase 2 & API-stable ·
+structurally identical (file:line evidence) · a natural home (usually NOT lib/guest).
+Anything short → _Watching_ (what's missing) or _Rejected_ (why).

+
+## Last scan
+
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 32)
+- **Pass 32 — A1 DONE.** `loops/conformance` merged to architecture (`db76cc8c`); 13 adopters
+  now on the shared driver; radar spot-checked common-lisp = 487/487 green post-merge →
+  coordination flag CLEARED. A1 moved to a new **Done** section. New nascent subsystems
+  `dream` + `maude` (0 files), `fed-prims` resumed (mutex-deadlock fix). The idle
+  `a1-conformance` loop can be retired (worklist complete).
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 31)
+- **Pass 31 — A1 conformance loop WORKLIST COMPLETE.** tcl excluded (foreign `*.tcl`); final:
+  4 migrated (common-lisp/erlang/feed/go) + 5 excluded (forth/js/ocaml/smalltalk/tcl). A1 =
+  **12 on shared driver + 6 excluded**; only the parity-gated merge to architecture remains.
+  commerce shipped a refund saga on flow (2nd flow use) + finished Phase 5 → going quiescent.
+  relations building graph algos (all-paths) — still unconsumed (W9 unchanged).
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 30)
+- **Pass 30:** conformance loop near done — `ocaml` + `smalltalk` excluded (both foreign
+  `test.sh`/corpus runners, as predicted). Tally: 4 migrated, 4 excluded, **tcl only** left.
+  Next A1 milestone = the `loops/conformance`→architecture merge under adopter-parity. No
+  new candidate; relations/artdag steady (no new W9 delegation).
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 29)
+- **Pass 29:** conformance loop excluded `js` (test262 fixtures) → 4 migrated + 2 excluded,
+  3 remain (ocaml/smalltalk/tcl). New subsystems advancing fast: `relations` → Phase 4
+  federation, `artdag` → Phase 6 federation → both fold into W1 (now 7 federation modules,
+  theme-not-shape holds) and W9 (relations past Phase 2 but not yet consumed by anyone).
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 28)
+- **Pass 28 — fleet expanding again.** Conformance loop: `go` migrated 609/609; **`forth`
+  excluded** (foreign Forth corpus — classify-then-exclude working). 4 migrated +1 excluded
+  on the branch; js/ocaml/smalltalk/tcl remain. **2 new subsystems:** `relations` (Phase 1,
+  parent/child rel facts → new W9 nascent watch) and `artdag` (nascent, 0 files). `events`
+  MERGED to architecture (its persist+flow adoption now integrated — W4/W8 landed). Briefing
+  commit hints more incoming: `dream`, `host`, +5 language chisels.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, passes 26–27)
+- **Passes 26–27 (routine tracking):** conformance loop steady at ~1 migration/iteration —
+  erlang 761/761, then feed 189/189. A1 = 8 on architecture + 3 on the branch; 6 remain.
+  W4 still gated (host-persist adapter not landed); no new subsystem; app loops on
+  incremental domain work (commerce Phase 5 payment envelope, content/events/identity/fed-sx).
+  Nothing new to discover; merge-time adopter-parity flag still open.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 25)
+- **Pass 25:** A1 → **8 adopters** (events via its own loop) + common-lisp 487/487 on the
+  conformance branch. The conformance loop **extended the shared `lib/guest` driver**
+  (per-suite counters/preloads) to do it → raised a **coordination flag in A1**: verify the
+  branch is non-regressive against all 8 adopters before merging to architecture. commerce
+  drafting Phase 5 provider-neutral payment envelope. No new candidate; A1 advancing fast.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 24)
+- **Pass 24 — three real updates.** (1) **A1 → 7 adopters** (search migrated, counters mode
+  — corrects the earlier exclusion). (2) The dedicated `conformance` loop ran its 1st
+  iteration: refused to force-migrate common-lisp (parity gate worked) and surfaced a
+  **driver feature-gap** (per-suite counters + preloads) gating the complex multi-suite
+  candidates → A1 now splits simple-now vs gated-on-driver-enhancement. (3) **W8 commerce
+  is LIVE** ("order lifecycle as a durable flow-on-sx flow, Phase 3 done") → 2 live flow
+  consumers. events shipped TZ/DST; mod reverted its extraction note (declined on re-read).
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 23)
+- **Pass 23 — trigger fired (empty streak ends at 19–22).** commerce recorded a Phase 3
+  **flow-integration design** (order saga as a flow-on-sx flow, payment suspended until
+  webhook resume) → 2nd durable-flow consumer; **W8 broadened** from "delivery" to
+  "externally-resumed orchestration on lib/flow." events made its federation transport
+  **fed-sx-ready** (injected) → reinforces W1's 5/5 inject-fed-sx seam. acl left tmux
+  (now fully quiescent). host-persist adapter still not landed (W4 migration still gated).
+- **Empty-discovery streak: passes 19–22** (last verified pass 22). Fleet at steady state —
+  active loops (content CvRDT, events recurrence/reschedule, identity grant-mgmt, fed-sx
+  outbox internals) are building *inside* their domains, not cross-cutting infra. Census
+  exhausted (p17); all gates re-tested (W1 p18, W2 p19). No new candidate clears any gate.
+- **Radar is now trigger-driven.** The next substantive pass needs one of: **(a)** a new
+  subsystem worktree spawning (auto-joins scan), or **(b)** host-persist's durable adapter
+  landing → unblocks the W4 acl/mod→persist/log migration, or **(c)** a quiescent
+  subsystem (acl/mod/search/commerce, static ~9–16 passes) resuming. Polling ~hourly until
+  one fires; will tighten cadence then.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 20)
+- **Pass 20 — honest empty pass.** 3 new census recurrences since p17 (normalize/index ×2,
+  query ×3) — all **name collisions** (same noun, domain-specific op), added to the table.
+  Recorded the meta-pattern: the fleet shares vocabulary, not structure. Most subsystems
+  quiescent (acl/mod/search/commerce static ~9-15 passes = API-stable); only events/
+  identity/content/fed-sx still committing domain features. No new gate-clearer.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 19)
+- **Pass 19 — honest empty pass.** Scanned 10 active subsystems. content/index.sx is a
+  blog index/tag-cloud listing (presentation, not full-text search — no search reinvention)
+  and content/multi-doc indexing adds no per-viewer filter. **W2 re-tested: still 2**
+  (feed, search) — acl's `permit?`-like matches are its own authZ *engine* (the home),
+  not a downstream read filter. No new candidate cleared any gate.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 18)
+- **Pass 18 — W1 gate re-test.** events shipped Phase 4 federation (5th consumer): a 5th
+  divergent merge (sorted agenda + `:origin` provenance), trust-gate = runtime list
+  membership (shares mod's mechanism, not acl's). Reinforces W1's "theme not shape" — but
+  the **inject-fed-sx-transport seam is now 5/5**, strengthening "all are fed-sx
+  consumers-in-waiting." Trust sub-pattern refined: mod+events (runtime set) vs acl (rule).
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 17)
+- **Pass 17 — filename census declared EXHAUSTED** (see the Census-status table above).
+  Examined the last unswept ≥2 recurrences (schema/engine = acl⇄mod substrate twins;
+  catalog/batch = name collisions; store = divergent). No new candidate. Incremental churn
+  elsewhere (content 621/621, identity PAR, events reminders). Future passes pivot from
+  censusing to re-testing gates as consumers mature.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 16)
+- **Pass 16:** events started Phase 3 — **durable notification delivery on `lib/flow`**
+  (new W8: at-least-once + idempotency exemplar; fed-sx/mod roll their own outbox). The two
+  `notify.sx` (feed vs events) are a name collision (read-side digest vs delivery), noted
+  in W8. Substrate-adoption story deepening: app domains now consume persist (content/
+  commerce/events), flow (events), commerce (events), acl-authZ (identity).
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 15)
+- **Pass 15:** added the **scanning-method note** above after `query.sx` again proved to
+  be merged-lib copies (lib/prolog + lib/persist in every worktree). Corrected census
+  surfaced `wire`×2 (content+mod) → Rejected (shared role, divergent structure: generic SX
+  serializer vs bespoke pipe-format under a Prolog-env string-prim constraint). events↔
+  commerce integration appeared (paid tickets); acl/mod/search quiescent ~7 passes (now
+  API-stable). No new gate-clearer.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 14)
+- **Pass 14:** filename census flagged `snapshot`×?? — but the `*/lib/persist/snapshot.sx`
+  copies are just the merged `lib/persist` in each worktree, NOT consumers (same artifact
+  as `lib/feed/rank.sx` everywhere). The one distinct file, `content/snapshot.sx`,
+  reimplements persist's projection-checkpoint on raw KV instead of using `persist/snapshot`
+  → new W7 (persist-adoption nudge). `audit`×3 = the W4 fakes (acl/mod/identity), known.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 13)
+- **Pass 13 — honest re-test, no gate-clearer.** Re-tested the two longest-waiting gates
+  against the maturing app-domain loops: **W2** (per-viewer visibility) still 2 consumers
+  (feed, search) — commerce/content/events/identity add no per-viewer read filter; **W3**
+  (pagination) still 2 (feed, search) — `content/page.sx` is an HTML wrapper, not
+  pagination (filename collision, noted in W3). Incremental churn only elsewhere.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 12)
+- **Pass 12:** `events` shipped **transactional booking on persist** (3rd live persist
+  consumer) using `persist/append-expect` (optimistic-concurrency CAS, lock-free capacity
+  safety). W4 ledger now shows a persist feature-ladder append → append-once → append-expect
+  that the hand-rolled fakes can't match. No new candidate; W4 reinforced.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 11)
+- **Pass 11 — W4 sharpened with a consumer ledger.** commerce built an **order ledger on
+  persist** (2nd live exemplar; uses `persist/append-once` for webhook idempotency) and
+  identity a **grant audit ledger** (in-memory Erlang fake, gated on an Erlang↔persist
+  bridge). The append-only monotonic-seq event-log pattern is now validated across 4
+  domains, 2 live on persist + 3 fakes flagged for adoption. See W4 table.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 10)
+- **Pass 10:** commerce/content/events/identity advancing (content 238/238). Probed a
+  shape outside the routing table — **guarded lifecycle state machines** (mod/lifecycle +
+  identity/membership) → new W6: shared *design principle*, divergent *structure*
+  (SX transition-table vs Erlang gen_server), NOT an extraction target. No gate-clearer.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-07 (radar loop, pass 9)
+- **Pass 9:** `commerce` + `content` reached Phase 2 (`content` 162/162). **Key find:
+  `content` built its op log directly on `persist/log`** (backend-injected, append+replay-
+  to-seq) — the live reference exemplar for W4 (see W4). `events` MONTHLY RRULE,
+  `identity` OAuth2 auth-code + PKCE, search boolean-filtered ranked. A1 still 6 adopters.
+- **Date:** 2026-06-06 (radar loop, pass 8)
+- **Pass 8 — fleet expanded by 4 app-domain loops** (the briefing's anticipated
+  `commerce`/`identity` arrivals, auto-picked up by dynamic discovery). All early-stage,
+  **pre-Phase-2 → moving targets, none count toward any gate yet**:
+  - `commerce` (Phase 1: `api/cart/catalog/price`). Its "per-line audit" is a cost
+    *breakdown view* (`api.sx:44`), **not** an append-only decision log → NOT a W4
+    consumer.
+  - `events` (Phase 1: `calendar.sx`, RRULE expansion).
+  - `identity` (early: `session/token`). Defers authZ to acl (`token.sx:15`) — reinforces
+    W2's "delegate `permit?` to acl-on-sx" routing; identity = authN, acl = authZ.
+  - `content` (just-started: `block.sx`).
+  These are the future consumers W2/W3 are waiting on — re-check their per-viewer filters
+  / pagination once each clears Phase 2. No new gate-clearer this pass.
+- **Pass 7:** **A1 jumped 4→6 adopters** — `acl` + `mod` migrated to the shared
+  conformance driver (first app-domain adopters; proves it generalizes past substrates).
+  `host-persist` closed its blob-adapter blocker (durable storage adapter now landing →
+  W4 migration path opening). search shipped proximity/NEAR; flow + persist quiescent.
+- **Pass 6:** new worktree **`host-persist`** (active — building persist's durable host
+  adapter); `feed` went quiescent (left tmux). acl shipped hardening (+25), fed-sx-m1 at
+  Step 6c. **mod loop independently wrote a shared-plumbing note** (`mod-on-sx.md`,
+  538b8a53) corroborating W4/W5 — folded its claims + home disagreements into W1/W4/W5.
+  No new gate-clearer (audit log still 2 consumers), but consumers are now API-stable.
+- **Pass 5:** search (+highlight/snippet) and fed-sx-m1 (+follower_graph) moved; rest
+  unchanged. Filename census: `api`×6, `fed`×3, then `schema/rank/query/page/explain/
+  engine/batch/audit`×2. Examined the ×6 `api.sx` → Rejected (shared name, divergent
+  structure incl. implicit-vs-explicit-state contract). rank/batch/engine all ≤2 +
+  substrate/domain-divergent → no new gate-clearer.
+- **Pass 4:** no churn vs pass 3 (same worktrees/tmux/HEADs/adopters). Swept audit+explain
+  surfaces: acl/mod share an append-only-log shape (→ sharpened W4 with persist/log API
+  evidence) and a proof-explain shape (→ new W5, substrate-bound). No new gate-clearer.
+- **Pass 3 (earlier today):** subsystem set + tmux + A1 adopters (4) all unchanged vs pass 2. Loops
+  advanced: acl shipped Phase 4 federation; search shipped Phase 4 + pagination; feed
+  shipped pagination/threading; mod at Ext 19 (capstone); persist did a worked acl-grants
+  migration (W4). New shape found: offset/limit pagination → folded into W3.
+- **Subsystem set discovered:** loop worktrees `acl, erlang, fed-prims, fed-sx-m1,
+  feed, flow, go, kernel, mod, ocaml, persist, radar, ruby, search,
+  sx-vm-extensions`; main-repo `lib/*` incl. merged `feed` + substrates (`apl,
+  common-lisp, datalog, erlang, forth, go, haskell, hyperscript, js, lua, minikanren,
+  ocaml, prolog, scheme, smalltalk, tcl`) + `lib/guest`.
+  Actively looping (tmux): `acl, fed-sx-m1, feed, flow, mod, persist, search`
+  (+ radar).
+- **New since pass 1:** worktrees `kernel` (empty/unset — not yet a repo) and `ocaml`
+  (`lib/ocaml/baseline` only). Both early-stage, pre–Phase 2 → out of proposal scope.
+- Re-enumerate every pass; new loops (e.g. a future `commerce`/`identity`) auto-join.
+
+**Census status (pass 17): EXHAUSTED.** Every own-namespace filename recurring ≥2× has
+been examined and dispositioned — further filename-censusing is low-yield until new
+subsystems/modules appear. Map:
+| filename | owners | verdict |
+|---|---|---|
+| `api` ×10 | all | Rejected — shared role, divergent state contract |
+| `fed`/`federation` | feed/search/mod/acl(+content) | W1 — theme not shape |
+| `audit` ×3 | acl/mod/identity | W4 — append-only log → persist/log |
+| `page` ×3 | feed/search (pagination) + content (HTML wrapper) | W3 + collision noted |
+| `explain` ×2 | acl/mod | W5 — proof tree, substrate-bound |
+| `snapshot` ×2 | persist(facet) + content(reinvents) | W7 |
+| `wire` ×2 | content(SX serializer) / mod(pipe-format) | Rejected — divergent |
+| `schema`,`engine` ×2 | acl/mod | substrate-twin parallels (Datalog vs Prolog); only audit (W4) is liftable |
+| `catalog`,`batch` ×2 | commerce/persist, mod/persist | name collisions, unrelated |
+| `normalize` ×2 | content(tree-prune)/feed(record-coerce) | name collision (pass 20) |
+| `index` ×2 | content(listing)/search(inverted index) | name collision (pass 20) |
+| `query` ×3 | content(doc-block)/search(bool AST)/persist(stream-read) | 3-way name collision (pass 20) |
+| `store` ×2 | content(on persist) / flow(workflow records) | related concept, divergent |
+| `rank` ×2 | feed/search | different domains (activities vs docs), ≤2 |
+**acl⇄mod are structural twins** (decision engine over a logic substrate, Datalog vs
+Prolog) — they parallel across engine/schema/explain/audit/fed, but only the *audit log*
+is substrate-agnostic and liftable (→ W4); the rest are substrate-idiomatic. Next passes:
+re-test gates (W2/W3/W8) as consumers mature, watch new modules — not re-census.
+
+**Meta-pattern (pass 20):** new module names keep *recurring* but the operations keep
+*colliding* — same noun, domain-specific op (normalize, index, query, catalog, batch,
+notify, page, store all proved to be collisions). This is *why* genuine extraction
+candidates are rare: the fleet shares vocabulary, not structure. The real shared assets
+are the **substrate subsystems** (persist, flow, acl, fed-sx) that app domains *adopt*
+(W1/W2/W4/W7/W8), not hand-rolled libs to extract.
+
+**Scanning-method note (learned the hard way, passes 5/12/14/15):** a filename census
+for *cross-subsystem* recurrence MUST restrict to each subsystem's OWN namespace —
+`X/lib/X/*.sx` — never `X/lib/*/`. The merged substrate libs (`lib/prolog`, `lib/persist`,
+`lib/feed`, `lib/datalog`, …) are checked out inside *every* worktree, so a naive census
+reports e.g. `query.sx`/`snapshot.sx`/`rank.sx` ×N as phantom recurrences that are really
+one merged file copied N times. Correct one-liner:
+`for w in <subsystems>; do for f in $w/lib/$w/*.sx; do basename $f .sx; done; done | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn`.

+## Done
+
+### A1 · Shared conformance driver — ✅ COMPLETE (merged `db76cc8c`, pass 32)
+Full closed loop: radar detected it → dedicated `conformance` loop implemented it
+(classify-then-migrate-or-exclude, hard parity gate) → **merged to architecture**
+(`db76cc8c Merge loops/conformance into architecture: A1 conformance-driver migration`)
+→ radar spot-verified post-merge (**common-lisp 487/487 green** on architecture — exercises
+the new per-suite-counters/preloads driver feature, the riskiest change). Final state:
+- **13 on the shared driver:** acl, apl, common-lisp, datalog, erlang, events, feed, go,
+  haskell, mod, prolog, relations, search.
+- **6 correctly excluded** (foreign-program runners — a legitimately different harness):
+  forth, js, ocaml, smalltalk, tcl, lua.
+- The shared driver gained per-suite counters + per-suite preloads (backward-compatible);
+  spot-check confirms existing adopters unaffected. Coordination flag CLEARED.
+Detail of the migration arc retained under the original entry below.
+
+## Proposed (cleared the gate)
+
+_(empty — A1 graduated to Done, pass 32.)_
+
+### A1 · Adopt the shared conformance driver across subsystems
+- **Pattern:** every subsystem hand-rolls a near-identical `conformance.sh`
+  (epoch-load → eval → scoreboard emit) and an inline `<x>-test name got expected`
+  pass/fail counter.
+- **Consumers (≥3, overwhelming):** 15 `lib/*/conformance.sh` — `apl, feed, datalog,
+  flow, mod, lua, erlang, forth, go, common-lisp, haskell, js, ocaml, prolog,
+  smalltalk, tcl`.
+- **Home:** `lib/guest` — the one legitimate exception (the shared driver
+  `lib/guest/conformance.sh` + `lib/guest/conformance.sx` already exist; modes
+  `dict` and `counters`).
+- **Status: IN PROGRESS — 6 adopters (pass 7).** `prolog` (dict), `haskell` (counters),
+  `apl` (dict), `datalog` (dict), and **`acl` (dict) + `mod` (dict), newly migrated this
+  pass** — all 3-line exec shims into `lib/guest/conformance.sh` with a `conformance.conf`.
+  **acl + mod are the first *app-domain* adopters** (not language substrates) — strong
+  evidence the driver generalizes beyond the substrate layer, which was the open question.
+  The `apl` migration earlier *surfaced a latent bug*: the old awk extractor
+  under-counted `pipeline` (40 vs the real 152 assertions); true apl total is **562**,
+  not 450 — evidence that adopting the driver also improves correctness.
+- **Not a target (different harness shape):** `lua/conformance.sh` is a Python runner
+  (`lib/lua/conformance.py`) that walks real `*.lua` source files via `lua-eval-ast`
+  and classifies pass/fail/timeout — it does not run SX `deftest` suites with a
+  counter/dict scoreboard, so the shared driver does not fit. Excluded, not pending.
+- **Remaining hand-rolled candidates (~120–220 lines each):** `common-lisp, erlang,
+  feed, forth, go, js, ocaml, smalltalk, tcl` — now being worked by the dedicated
+  `conformance` loop (above). (`lua` excluded: walks real `*.lua` files via Python.
+  `smalltalk` likely excludes too — runs `*.st` via its own `test.sh`. `search` was
+  thought to be excluded but DID migrate via counters mode — see the 7-adopter note.)
+- **Action:** each remaining subsystem's OWN loop migrates when quiescent — add a
+  `conformance.conf` (+ a `test-harness.sx` preload defining its counters) and
+  replace `conformance.sh` with the 1-line exec shim
+  (`exec bash …/guest/conformance.sh …/conformance.conf "$@"`). Recipe template:
+  `lib/haskell/conformance.conf` (counters) or `lib/prolog/conformance.conf` (dict).
+  Keep the `bash lib/X/conformance.sh` entry point so no loop is disrupted.
+- **Priority: HIGH** (15 consumers, low risk, interface-preserving, additive).
+- **8 adopters on architecture** (pass 25): acl, apl, datalog, **events**, haskell, mod,
+  prolog, search — `events` migrated via its OWN loop; `search` via counters mode (which
+  corrects the earlier "search excluded" note). **+4 on the `loops/conformance` branch:
+  `common-lisp` 487/487, `erlang` 761/761, `feed` 189/189, `go` 609/609** — pending merge.
+  **5 EXCLUDED — all foreign-runner harnesses** (correctly, not force-migrated): `forth`
+  (Hayes core.fr via awk+python), `js` (test262 `.js`/`.expected`), `ocaml` (scrapes
+  `test.sh` + `.ml` baseline), `smalltalk` (scrapes `test.sh` + `*.st` corpus), `tcl`
+  (foreign `*.tcl` vs `# expected:` annotations).
+- **✅ CONFORMANCE LOOP WORKLIST COMPLETE (pass 31).** Final A1 picture:
+  - **12 on the shared driver:** acl, apl, datalog, events, haskell, mod, prolog, search
+    (on architecture) + common-lisp, erlang, feed, go (on `loops/conformance`, pending merge).
+  - **6 correctly excluded** (foreign-program runners — testing a language impl against an
+    external corpus is legitimately a different harness): forth, js, ocaml, smalltalk, tcl, lua.
+  - **Honest finding:** the driver's reach is narrower than the raw "15 conformance.sh"
+    count implied — language substrates that run real `.lua/.st/.ml/.tcl/.js/.fr` programs
+    *should* keep their foreign runners. ~half migrate, ~half don't, and that's correct.
+  - **One step left:** merge `loops/conformance` → architecture under the **adopter-parity
+    check** (the coordination flag above — the shared `lib/guest` driver change must be
+    proven non-regressive against all existing adopters first). The loop is now idle.
+- **NOW IN PROGRESS — dedicated loop (2026-06-07).** A human-triggered `conformance` loop
+  (worktree `/root/rose-ash-loops/conformance`, branch `loops/conformance`, tmux session
+  `a1-conformance`, briefing `plans/agent-briefings/conformance-loop.md`) is working the
+  remaining candidates (common-lisp, erlang, feed, forth, go, js, ocaml, smalltalk, tcl)
+  one per iteration, **classify-then-migrate-or-exclude with a hard test-count parity gate**
+  (reverts on any mismatch; never pushes to main/architecture). Radar tracks; it implements.
+- **Driver-capability boundary found (pass 24, first iteration).** The loop did NOT
+  force-migrate `common-lisp` (baseline 305/0 across 12 suites) — the shared driver can't
+  reproduce it: `MODE=counters` supports only ONE global pass/fail counter pair + ONE fixed
+  preload set, but common-lisp needs **per-suite counter names** (8 distinct pairs) and
+  **per-suite preload chains**. It logged a precise blocker + unblock path (extend the
+  `SUITES` entry format with optional per-suite counters/preloads) and moved on.
+- **Driver gap RESOLVED next iteration (pass 25) — but it touched the shared driver.** The
+  loop extended `lib/guest/conformance.sh` (+38 lines: optional per-suite counters + per-suite
+  preloads in the `SUITES` format, backward-compatible) and then migrated common-lisp at
+  **487/487** (above the 305 baseline — likely another extractor under-count correction, à la
+  apl's `pipeline`). The parity gate held throughout.
+- **⚠ COORDINATION FLAG (radar): the `loops/conformance` branch now carries a change to the
+  SHARED `lib/guest` driver** used by all 8 adopters. It's additive by design, but **before
+  this branch merges to `architecture`, re-run the existing adopters' suites under the new
+  driver to confirm zero regression** (acl/apl/datalog/events/haskell/mod/prolog/search).
+  This is the one cross-cutting risk in an otherwise per-subsystem-isolated effort — surfaced
+  here so the merge is gated on adopter-parity, not assumed.
+

+
+## Watching (real but not yet through the gate)
+
+### W1 · Federation scaffold (merge / ingest / backfill / trust-gate)
+- **FAILS the structural-identity gate (deep-dived 2026-06-06, all 4 read).** Consumer
+  count is met (4) but they are *superficially* similar, not structurally identical —
+  the federated unit and merge op differ fundamentally:
+
+  | Subsystem (file) | Federated unit | Merge op | Trust gate | Injected transport |
+  |---|---|---|---|---|
+  | feed (`fed.sx:14,18,40`) | activity streams | dedupe by `(actor verb object)` | none (visibility via `permit?` separately) | `send-fn`, `fetch-fn` |
+  | search (`fed.sx:8`) | inverted indices | relabel DocId `peer*1000+local` + union posting lists | none | none (pure merge fn) |
+  | mod (`fed.sx:11-14,99`) | moderation decisions | advisory-list vs applied-list; bind iff `mod/trusted?` | **yes — runtime list** `mod/trusted? peer scope` | mock outbox / `fed-send!` |
+  | acl (`federation.sx:43,56`) | Datalog delegate facts | pull facts, gate by `trust`/`level_covers` rule, re-saturate | **yes — Datalog rule** at query time | `transport` dict |
+  | events (`federation.sx`) | calendar agendas | fold trusted peers' agendas into one sorted agenda + `:origin` provenance | **yes — runtime list** `ev/trusts?` (peer-id ∈ trust-set) | injected behind `ev/peer-agenda` |
+
+- **The ONLY real commonality is the injection seam** (now 5/5, pass 18), not extractable
+  code: every one says "the real transport is `fed-sx`'s job; inject `send-fn`/`fetch-fn`/
+  `transport`/`peer-agenda` and mock it in tests." That is an architectural *convention the
+  fleet already follows*. The merge op diverges 5 ways (dedupe / index-union / advisory /
+  fact-saturation / agenda-sort). The trust gate, where present, splits: **mod + events use
+  a runtime trust-set membership check; acl uses a declarative Datalog rule** — so even the
+  trust sub-pattern is 2-of-3, and the membership check is a trivial one-liner (below the
+  extraction threshold). No shared merge, no single shared trust mechanism.
+- **Disposition:** do NOT extract a shared "federation lib." When `fed-sx` ships its
+  real transport, these 4 become its *consumers* (wiring `send-fn`/`fetch-fn`/`transport`
+  to it) — that work belongs to each subsystem's loop + the `fed-sx` loop, not a
+  cross-cutting extraction. Stop re-proposing on the shared name. Home: `fed-sx`.
+- **Now 7 federation modules (pass 29):** + `relations` (Phase 4: erel trust-gating,
+  peer_rel/trust, fed-sx mock transport — Datalog-rule trust like acl) and `artdag`
+  (Phase 6: content-addressed cache + trust + **invalidation** — a merge shape unlike any
+  other). Each new one reinforces "theme not shape": 7 divergent merges, all sharing only
+  the inject-fed-sx-transport seam. Verdict unchanged — they're fed-sx consumers-in-waiting.
+- **Narrower sub-claim (mod note, pass 6; refined pass 18):** mod asserts the *fed
+  trust/outbox* shape shares between mod+acl. Radar evidence refines this: the trust gate
+  splits by mechanism, not by subsystem pair — **mod + events** both use a runtime
+  trust-set membership check (`mod/trusted?`, `ev/trusts?`), while **acl** uses a Datalog
+  rule. So a "trust-set membership" helper has 2 consumers (mod, events) — but it's a
+  one-line `member?` and the merge it gates diverges, so still not worth extracting.
+  Resolve at the architecture-merge point if a heavier shared trust-set surface emerges.
+
+### W2 · Per-viewer visibility / permission filter
+- **2 shipped consumers, same shape** — `filter <injected-permit> <ranked/candidate stream>`:
+  - `feed/lib/feed/acl.sx:27` `feed/visible = (feed/filter stream (fn (a) (permit? viewer a)))`,
+    capstone at `:34` (stream → ACL → rank → top-N). `permit?` injected, sig `(viewer activity)→bool`.
+  - `search/lib/search/fed.sx:16` `aclFilter permit docs = filter permit docs`;
+    `topNTfIdfAcl n permit ts idx = take n (aclFilter permit (rankTfIdf ts idx))`.
+    `permit` injected, sig `DocId→Bool` (viewer baked in by caller).
+- **NOT a consumer:** `mod/lib/mod/policy.sx` is moderation policy (reviewer actions),
+  no per-viewer read filter. So mod won't be the 3rd.
+- **Missing:** (a) only 2 consumers, need ≥3; (b) the two interfaces *diverge* —
+  feed passes `(viewer, item)`, search bakes the viewer in — so any shared form must
+  pick a convention; (c) both already **inject** the predicate, and the filter body is
+  literally one line (`filter permit xs`). Leaning toward: the predicate's home is
+  `acl-on-sx` (`permit?`), and the one-line filter is too thin to extract.
+- **Home when ripe:** delegate `permit?` to `acl-on-sx`; do NOT extract the filter.
+  Re-check if a 3rd genuine per-viewer read filter ships (e.g. events/commerce).
+
+### W3 · Collection helpers (group-by, dedupe-by-key, stable top-N, distinct-order, offset/limit page)
+- feed built all of these on APL primitives. search/commerce/events will want
+  group-by / top-N.
+- **NEW (2026-06-06): offset/limit pagination shipped in 2 subsystems, identical shape**
+  `take limit (drop offset xs)`:
+  - `feed/lib/feed/page.sx:9` `feed/page` (offset/limit window over a stream).
+  - `search/lib/search/page.sx:9` `paginate off lim docs = take lim (drop off docs)`.
+  - NOT a 3rd: `persist/lib/persist/query.sx:5` has a *since-cursor* for incremental log
+    consumption — resumable-stream semantics, not result windowing. Different shape.
+  - feed *also* has cursor-by-`:at` recency pagination (`page.sx:21-44`); search has no
+    cursor. So only the plain offset/limit window is shared, and it is a literal 1-liner.
+- **Missing:** ≥3 stable consumers; AND every item here is collection math that belongs
+  in the **substrate** (APL/Haskell already expose grade/sort/unique/take/drop), not a
+  shared lib. A 1-line `take/drop` window is far below the extraction threshold. Watch;
+  revisit only if a non-substrate subsystem needs the same windowing without take/drop.
+- **Filename-collision caution (pass 13):** `content/lib/content/page.sx` is an **HTML
+  page wrapper** (full HTML5 doc), NOT pagination — do not count it as a 3rd pagination
+  consumer. `page.sx` now means two unrelated things across the fleet. Re-tested pass 13:
+  pagination still only feed + search (2).
+
+### W4 · In-memory store fakes → `persist-on-sx`
+- Not an abstraction to extract — a migration target. Every subsystem fakes its
+  store with a mutable list (`feed/-log`, flow store, mod audit, …).
+- **Owner:** `persist-on-sx` (in progress). Tracked there, listed here for visibility.
+- **Concrete instance (file:line, found pass 4): the append-only decision/audit log.**
+  `acl/lib/acl/audit.sx` and `mod/lib/mod/audit.sx` are the SAME hand-rolled shape, and
+  `persist/lib/persist/log.sx` (the persist *log facet*) already implements it durably:
+
+  | role | acl/audit.sx | mod/audit.sx | persist/log.sx (target) |
+  |---|---|---|---|
+  | log var | `acl-audit-log` :9 | `mod/*audit-log*` :10 | backend stream |
+  | monotonic seq | `acl-audit-seq` :10 | `mod/*audit-seq*` :11 | per-stream high-water :1 |
+  | append (auto-seq) | `acl-audit-decide!` | commit :32 | `persist/append` :17 |
+  | count | `acl-audit-count` :51 | `mod/audit-count` :44 | `persist/count` :12 |
+  | read-all oldest-first | snapshot/tail :73 | `mod/audit-all` :43 | `persist/read` :29 |
+  | read seq≥from | — | by-seq | `persist/read-from` :31 |
+
+  Both deliberately use a monotonic seq with **no wall-clock** (deterministic/testable) —
+  identical to persist/log's design. Action when persist's host adapter lands: acl + mod
+  loops swap their in-memory log for `persist/log`. 2 consumers today; not a new lib —
+  the home already exists. Belongs to acl/mod loops × persist loop, not an extraction.
+- **Cross-loop corroboration (pass 6):** the mod loop independently reached the same
+  conclusion — `mod/plans/mod-on-sx.md` (commit 538b8a53): *"mod-sx (Prolog) and acl-sx
+  (Datalog) converged on the same module shape … only the audit log + fed trust/outbox
+  shapes truly share; extract at the architecture-merge point, refactoring both consumers
+  atomically, not unilaterally from a loop branch."* Confirms the shape AND the
+  do-not-extract-unilaterally stance.
+- **Home disagreement to resolve at merge:** mod's note proposes lifting the audit-log
+  primitives into **`lib/guest/`**. Radar routing disagrees: a durable append-only log is
+  a **`persist-on-sx`** concern (the log facet already exists), not language-impl plumbing.
+  Hold the line — `lib/guest` is lexer/parser/AST/HM/test-runner, not an event log.
+- **Migration is becoming concrete:** new `host-persist` loop (worktree + tmux, pass 6)
+  is building the durable-storage host adapter persist was blocked on — once it lands,
+  acl/mod can actually swap to `persist/log`.
+- **LIVE REFERENCE EXEMPLAR (pass 9): `content` already does it right.** `content`
+  (Phase 2 complete, 162/162) built its op log directly on `persist/log` instead of
+  faking it — `content/lib/content/store.sx`: backend injected via `(persist/open)`
+  ("content knows nothing about which backend", :10); append op as event
+  `persist/append b (content/-stream doc-id) …` (:20); read `persist/read` (:36);
+  `persist/last-seq` (:47); **version = replay op stream up to a seq**
+  (filter `persist/event-seq ev <= seq`, :61). "The op log is the source of truth …
+  the materialised doc is a cache, never primary state."
+  This proves the W4 target is real, not hypothetical: acl + mod's hand-rolled
+  monotonic-seq logs should adopt exactly content's `persist/log` pattern.
+- **Consumer ledger of the append-only monotonic-seq event log (pass 11):**
+
+  | consumer | what | backing | note |
+  |---|---|---|---|
+  | content (`store.sx`) | doc op log | **persist/log ✓ live** | plain append + replay-to-seq |
+  | commerce (`ledger.sx`) | order ledger | **persist/log ✓ live** | `persist/append-once` — idempotent, webhook-replay-safe :40,58 |
+  | events (`booking.sx`) | booking roster | **persist/log ✓ live** | `persist/append-expect` — optimistic-concurrency CAS, capacity-safe, lock-free |
+  | acl (`audit.sx`) | decision log | in-memory fake (SX) | migrate directly when host adapter lands |
+  | mod (`audit.sx`) | decision log | in-memory fake (SX) | migrate directly |
+  | identity (`audit.sx`) | grant ledger | in-memory fake (**Erlang**) | `{Seq,Subject,Action}`; needs an **Erlang↔persist bridge** first — author scoped it out until persist lands ("queryable semantics identical") |
+
+- **Two takeaways:** (1) the pattern is **validated across domains** — CRDT doc ops,
+  financial orders, event bookings, rule decisions, OAuth grants all reduce to the same
+  append-only monotonic-seq stream; (2) migrating to `persist/log` is strictly *better*
+  than the fakes — persist exposes a **feature ladder the fakes don't have**:
+  `append` (content) → `append-once`/idempotency (commerce) → `append-expect`/optimistic-
+  concurrency (events). Every fake would have to reinvent a weaker version of these.
+  This is an **adoption** item (the home already exists), NOT a new extraction — owned by
+  persist/host-persist × each consumer loop. The SX fakes (acl, mod) migrate directly;
+  the Erlang fake (identity) is gated on an Erlang↔persist bridge.
+
+### W5 · Proof-tree explanation over a logic-program derivation
+- `acl/lib/acl/explain.sx` (reconstructs a canonical proof by goal-directed search over a
+  saturated Datalog db) and `mod/lib/mod/explain.sx` (renders a Prolog-style proof tree
+  goal-by-goal with proved/unproved marks + unification bindings) are the same *idea*.
+- **Missing / disposition:** only 2 consumers, and they sit on **different substrates**
+  (acl→`lib/datalog`, mod→`lib/prolog`). Proof reconstruction/rendering is logic-engine
+  machinery → it belongs in each **substrate** (datalog/prolog), not a shared app lib.
+  Watch; revisit only if a 3rd logic-backed subsystem reimplements proof explanation.
+- **Cross-loop note (pass 6):** mod's note calls `mod/proof-goals` (re-query-each-goal)
+  generic and proposes lifting it into **`lib/guest/`**. Radar caveat: proof-tree
+  reconstruction *is* engine-agnostic logic machinery, but `lib/guest` is for
+  lexer/parser/AST/HM/match/test-runner — a logic-engine proof helper is a poor fit there.
+  If genuinely shared by ≥3 engines, a `lib/logic`-style substrate helper is the better
+  home than `lib/guest`. Still 2 consumers → stays Watching either way.
+
+---
+
+### W9 · Parent/child relationship tracking → the new `relations` subsystem (nascent)
+- **New subsystem (pass 28):** `relations` (loops/relations, Phase 1 — `schema.sx`+`api.sx`,
+  rel facts + `relate`/`unrelate`/`children`/`parents`/`related`, 22 tests). Per CLAUDE.md
+  it's the canonical "cross-domain parent/child relationship tracking."
+- **Why watch:** several subsystems already track parent/child *locally* — feed reply-to
+  threading (`thread`/`replies`), content nested block trees, events occurrence/RECURRENCE-ID
+  links. If `relations` becomes the shared home, those are candidate *delegators* (like
+  acl=authZ, persist=log). But it's **Phase 1, pre-Phase-2, moving target** — and each
+  local impl is currently domain-specific (different keys/semantics). Do NOT propose yet.
+  Re-check when relations is past Phase 2 AND ≥3 subsystems' relationship logic could
+  genuinely delegate to it. `artdag` also just spawned (nascent, 0 files) — tracking only.
+  (pass 32: `dream` + `maude` also spawned, nascent 0-files; `fed-prims` resumed.)
+- **Update pass 29:** relations rocketed to **Phase 4** (one gate — past Phase 2 — now met),
+  but it's building ITSELF out (schema/federation), **not yet being consumed** by anyone.
+  The blocker is the other gate: 0 subsystems currently *delegate* their parent/child logic
+  to it (feed/content/events still track locally). Watch for the first real delegation.
+  (artdag also raced to Phase 6 — these ports advance fast; treat committed state as truth.)
+
+### W8 · Durable externally-resumed orchestration on `lib/flow` (suspend→host-IO→resume)
+- **The shared shape:** a durable `flow` that `request`s an external action (a suspend
+  point), the **host** performs the IO, then `flow/resume`s the flow with the outcome;
+  flow's deterministic replay means a completed step never re-runs on recovery.
+- **Consumers (pass 24): 2 LIVE** (events delivery, commerce order saga).
+  - `events/lib/events/notify.sx` (**live**) — reminders/digests as durable flows;
+    suspend on delivery `dispatch`, resume with send outcome. At-least-once + idempotency key.
+  - `commerce` (**LIVE** as of pass 24 — "order lifecycle as a durable flow-on-sx flow,
+    21 tests, Phase 3 done") — order saga `(defflow ordf … (request 'reserve oid) … )`:
+    reserve→pay→fulfil as a flow, **payment stays suspended until the payment webhook calls
+    `flow/resume`**. Carries only the order-id; pure orchestration over `ledger.sx`.
+  - **Now 2 LIVE consumers** of the *same* pattern: long-running process, external resume
+    (delivery dispatch vs payment webhook). fed-sx/mod still roll their own outbox (watch
+    for convergence). Strengthens "lib/flow is the home"; still adoption, not extraction.
+- **Disposition:** `lib/flow` IS the abstraction (events proves it, commerce adopts it) →
+  this is an **adoption** observation like W4, NOT an extraction. Home = `lib/flow`.
+- **Flow-onboarding friction (light signal):** commerce's note logs real gotchas adopting
+  flow — `flow-make-env` returns a large likely-cyclic env (don't print it), env build is
+  slow (budget ~540s like flow's own suite). If ≥3 subsystems hit the same onboarding
+  gotchas, that's a signal to smooth `lib/flow`'s adopter API — flow's concern, flagged here.
+- **Name-collision caveat:** `notify.sx` means two unrelated things — `feed/notify.sx` is
+  a *read-side digest* (group inbox by verb+object), NOT delivery. Do not pair them.
+
+### W7 · Snapshot/projection-checkpoint reimplemented vs `persist/snapshot` (delegate)
+- `persist/lib/persist/snapshot.sx` already provides a **generic** projection checkpoint:
+  store `{:value :seq}` in the kv facet under a namespaced key; the headline property is
+  **snapshot + tail == full replay** (pure, clock-free).
+- `content/lib/content/snapshot.sx` **reimplements that same pattern on raw persist KV**
+  rather than delegating: `persist/kv-put b (content/-snap-key doc-id) {:doc … :seq seq}`
+  (:20), `persist/kv-has?`/`kv-get` (:27-28), and its own tail-replay (:53-59). It never
+  calls `persist/snapshot-*`. content's doc-materialisation *is* a projection fold over
+  its op stream — exactly what `persist/snapshot` checkpoints generically.
+- **Disposition:** persist-adoption nudge (like W4): content could delegate to
+  `persist/snapshot` (its projection = "fold ops → doc"), dropping the duplicated
+  KV+replay code. Home already exists → NOT an extraction; owned by content × persist
+  loops. Only 1 reinventor today; watch whether commerce/events/identity also hand-roll a
+  snapshot on raw KV instead of using the facet (would strengthen the nudge). NB timeline:
+  unclear if `persist/snapshot` predated content's — flag, don't blame.
+
+### W6 · Guarded lifecycle state machine (illegal transition = explicit error)
+- Recurs as a **design principle**, NOT a shared structure (found pass 10):
+  - `mod/lib/mod/lifecycle.sx` — pure SX: immutable case `{:state :error :history …}`,
+    explicit transition table `mod/lc-transitions` (:31), illegal transition returns the
+    case unchanged with `:error` set. States open→triaged→decided→appealed→final.
+  - `identity/lib/identity/membership.sx` — an **Erlang `gen_server`** fragment (identity
+    runs on erlang-on-sx): a `receive` loop with `case find(...) of … {error, St}` guards.
+    States none→pending→active→lapsed→revoked.
+- **Both share the guideline** ("invalid transitions are explicit errors, never silent
+  no-ops") but **implement it substrate-idiomatically** — SX transition-table over
+  immutable values vs an Erlang process loop with per-message case guards. Same W1/`api.sx`
+  trap: shared *idea*, divergent *structure*.
+- **Disposition:** not an extraction target — the FSM mechanism is ~10 substrate-specific
+  lines; the value is in each domain's state graph, not the plumbing. At most a **design
+  guideline** ("model lifecycle as a guarded FSM with explicit-error transitions"). Watch
+  whether commerce-checkout / events-booking add their own — if so it confirms the
+  *guideline*, still not a lib. Do not propose extracting a shared state-machine lib.
+
+## Rejected (considered, declined — do not re-propose)
+
+- **"Continuous auto-implementing abstractor loop."** Rejected at design time: an
+  agent writing across `lib/<x>/**` breaks the worktree isolation that makes the
+  fleet safe, and is rewarded for manufacturing premature/wrong abstractions. The
+  radar is read-only by design. (This file is the alternative.)
+- **Shared `api.sx` "public boundary" module (×6).** Rejected pass 4-5: every subsystem
+  has an `api.sx` (acl, feed, flow, mod, persist, search — a 100% filename match), but it
+  is a naming *convention for the public entry point*, not a shared structure. They
+  disagree on the most basic contract: acl/feed use **implicit module state**
+  (`acl/api.sx` "implicit current db", `feed/api.sx` "single mutable log") while
+  `persist/api.sx` threads an **explicit backend as every call's first arg**; flow's api
+  *builds a Scheme env*, search's api *concatenates a Haskell source string*, mod's is a
+  *lifecycle state-machine façade* (17 defs vs persist's 1). Same role, no common shape —
+  the W1 coincidental-resemblance trap. Do not re-propose on the filename.
+- **Shared `wire.sx` "serialization" module (×2).** Rejected pass 15: content + mod both
+  have a `wire.sx`, but `content/wire.sx` uses the **generic SX serializer**
+  (`serialize`/`parse`, full-fidelity round-trip) while `mod/wire.sx` is a **bespoke
+  versioned pipe-delimited line** (subset of fields, `split` hand-built over slice/len
+  because mod's Prolog-loaded env strips string prims). Shared role (wire format),
+  divergent structure + substrate constraint → not a candidate; the SX serializer is
+  already the shared tool for SX-substrate subsystems, and mod can't use it. (Same family
+  as the `api.sx` rejection above.)
+- **Dumping app-domain plumbing into `lib/guest`.** Rejected: `lib/guest` is for
+  language-implementation plumbing. App patterns route to acl/fed-sx/persist/
+  substrate/host instead (see the routing rule in the briefing).

 ## Progress log
 
+- **2026-06-07 Phase 7 — maude-bridge** (maude-optimize suite 14/14, total 172/172).
+  `lib/artdag/maude-bridge.sx`: lossless adapter between an artdag effect DAG and a
+  maude term. `artdag/dag->term dag id` walks from a sink, emitting `(mau/app op
+  input-terms ++ meta)` per node; the trailing `artdag:meta` subterm carries params
+  (a `write-to-string` token) + a commutativity flag, so no side table is needed.
+  `artdag/term->dag` synthesizes build-entries (names `mb0…`) and re-runs
+  `artdag/build`, which recomputes content-ids (name-independent) and re-collapses
+  shared subterms — so `artdag/mb-roundtrip` is the identity on canonical form:
+  sink id, op, params, and the full node survive; commutative ids stay
+  order-insensitive; a diamond's shared node de-duplicates back to one (4→4).
+  Maude entry points used: `mau/app`/`mau/const`/`mau/op`/`mau/args`/`mau/app?`.
+  `conformance.sh` now gates the maude PRELOADS + bridge load to the maude-optimize

+  so nested changes surface precisely. Section containers are excluded from

-- _(none yet)_
+- 2026-06-07 — **fed-sx-m2 Blockers #4 (handler-mutex deadlock) is NOT a
+  mutex bug — root cause is in the Erlang substrate, so the fix is m2
+  scope, not OCaml.** Investigated per `plans/agent-briefings/
+  fed-prims-mutex-fix.md`. Reproduced deterministically (m2 worktree
+  binary + `next/kernel/*.erl`, port 51920): a **single** request — no
+  concurrency, no prior request — to `/actors/alice/outbox` returns an
+  empty reply (curl exit 52) while the non-kernel control route `/`
+  returns 200 `fed-sx kernel m1`. Also reproduced with a 3-line minimal
+  echo gen_server + a handler that does `gen_server:call(echo, ping)`
+  (no kernel needed; boots in ~20s vs ~7min for the full kernel here).
+
+  Diagnosis: native `http-listen` (`bin/sx_server.ml:743-840`) runs each
+  connection's handler on a fresh `Thread.create` **outside any Erlang
+  scheduler step**. The handler closure (`er-bif-http-listen`'s
+  `sx-handler`, `lib/erlang/runtime.sx`) calls `er-apply-fun handler`
+  directly, so when the route reaches `gen_server:call` →
+  `receive` (`lib/erlang/transpile.sx:1132`), the `receive` captures a
+  `call/cc` and `raise`s `er-suspend-marker` expecting an enclosing
+  `er-sched-step-alive!` guard **and** a scheduler pump
+  (`er-sched-run-all!`). On the native handler thread neither is on the
+  stack: with no guard the suspend either propagates out (→ empty reply,
+  minimal case) or is caught by an Erlang `try`/guard in the route and
+  the request stalls (→ "hang" the m2 loop observed). The kernel
+  gen_server can never be stepped because the only scheduler driver
+  (the boot thread that ran `erlang-eval-ast`) is parked forever in the
+  native `Unix.accept` loop.
+
+  Why Pattern A (release/rescope the runtime mutex) does NOT apply: the
+  failure reproduces on a **single request with zero contention**, so it
+  is not a mutex-contention deadlock. Releasing the mutex cannot help and
+  would be actively harmful — the mutex is *required* to serialise the
+  shared single-threaded SX runtime / scheduler across handler threads.
+  `Sx_runtime.sx_call` (`lib/sx_runtime.ml:102`) is fully synchronous
+  (it just dispatches into the CEK evaluator), which is exactly the
+  briefing's stated condition for falling back from Pattern A to
+  Pattern B. There is also no OCaml-only fix: `grep` confirms nothing in
+  `hosts/ocaml/{lib,bin}` references `er-sched*`/the Erlang scheduler —
+  `er-sched-run-all!` is a pure-SX symbol in `lib/erlang/runtime.sx`, so
+  OCaml cannot pump it. Running the handler synchronously on the accept
+  thread (no `Thread.create`) does not help either: the `er-suspend-marker`
+  `raise` would unwind the native `handle` frame that writes the HTTP
+  response, losing the response across the suspension.
+
+  Recommended fix (Pattern B, **m2 / `loops/erlang` scope — entirely in
+  `er-bif-http-listen`, no OCaml change**): have `sx-handler` run the
+  handler as a scheduled er-process and pump the scheduler to completion,
+  e.g.
+
+  ```
+  (sx-handler
+    (fn (req-dict)
+      (let ((req-pl (er-request-dict-to-proplist req-dict)))
+        (let ((pid (er-spawn-fun
+                     (fn () (er-apply-fun handler (list req-pl))))))
+          (er-sched-run-all!)                       ; drains: handler →
+                                                    ; kernel reply → handler
+          (er-proplist-to-dict
+            (er-proc-field pid :exit-result))))))   ; handler's return value
+  ```
+
+  This keeps every suspend/resume inside the SX scheduler; the native
+  side only ever sees the final response dict. The existing native
+  per-connection `Thread.create` + `Mutex` stay as-is and remain correct
+  (they serialise the single pump across concurrent connections — the
+  mutex must NOT be removed). Verified by reasoning through the full
+  step trace (handler suspends on `receive` → kernel `handle_call`
+  replies → handler resumes → dies with `:exit-result`); the m2 loop
+  should implement + run `next/tests/http_server_tcp.sh` plus a
+  kernel-route smoke. No OCaml or `bin/sx_server.ml` change was made or

+  driven by op forms; `mau/red->maude` / `mau/rew->maude`. 11 tests.

+  a module plus trailing `reduce`/`red`/`rewrite`/`rew TERM .` commands
+  (`... in MOD : TERM` qualifier accepted) and execute them, rendering results
+  in surface syntax. Runs an idiomatic `.maude` file end-to-end. Now also:
+  `search START =>* GOAL .` command (reports the path), least-sort annotated
+  output via `mau/run-pretty` → `result SORT: TERM` (Maude-style). 10 tests.
+- [x] Witness-path search (`lib/maude/searchpath.sx`) — `mau/search-path` /
+  `mau/search-length` return the shortest sequence of states start..goal (the
+  solution moves), not just yes/no. 8 tests.
+- [x] Order-sorted least-sort inference (`lib/maude/sorts.sx`) — `mau/term-sort`
+  computes the least sort of a term: the smallest result sort among the op
+  declarations whose argument sorts the actual args satisfy (modulo subsorting),
+  so an overloaded `f(1)` is `NzNat` but `f(s 0)` is `Nat`. `mau/has-sort?`
+  for membership-style checks. Answers the plan's substrate question — order-
+  sorted signatures fit cleanly. 14 tests.
+- [x] `gather` / parse-time associativity — infix ops parse left (default,
+  `(E e)`) or right (`(e E)`) per the gather attr, so cons `_:_ [gather (e E)]`
+  reads `a : b : c` as right-nested. Full insertion sort now runs over BARE cons
+  lists (no parens). 7 tests.
+- [x] `owise` equations — parser now reads trailing eq attributes
+  (`eq L = R [owise] .`), `mau/split-attrs`; `mau/crewrite-top` is two-pass
+  (ordinary equations first, owise last), so an owise catch-all fires only when
+  nothing else applies, regardless of declaration order. Parser also reads
+  `label`/`prec`/`owise`/`id:` eq+op attrs. 8 tests.

+core that runs idiomatic programs and proves equational identities — is met:
+sorts/subsorts/overloading, equational reduction modulo assoc/comm/id,
+conditional eqs + owise, system rules (rew + BFS search with witness paths),
+a strategy language, and META-LEVEL reflection, with a mixfix surface printer
+and an end-to-end `.maude` runner (reduce/rewrite/search commands, sort-annotated
+output). **artdag-on-sx fit prototype (lib/maude/tests/effects.sx, 8 tests):** artdag's
+optimise passes — adjacent-op fusion, no-op/dead-op elim, identity elim,
+CSE/idempotent dedup — expressed as `eq`s; the optimised pipeline IS the normal
+form, and confluence ⇒ a stable content id. This is the "second consumer"
+spike: it justifies a maude-driven optimiser in `lib/artdag` and the eventual
+`lib/guest/rewriting/` extraction. Faithfulness note surfaced: `id:` only
+affects matching/canon, NOT auto-reduction — write explicit identity eqs (or
+read off the canonical form) if you need `0 + N` to reduce in the term itself.
+
+**Confluence / critical-pair checking (lib/maude/confluence.sx, 12 tests):**
+`mau/confluent?` answers the plan's substrate question "can confluence be
+checked." Two-sided syntactic unification (`mau/u-unify`, with occurs check) →
+critical pairs from LHS overlaps (`mau/critical-pairs`) → joinability via
+`mau/ac-equal?` of the normal forms (`mau/non-joinable-pairs` gives the
+diagnostics, `mau/cp->str` renders `left <?> right`). Caught `f(a)=b, a=c` as
+non-confluent (`b <?> f(c)`); confirmed peano/idempotent/AC examples confluent.
+SCOPE: unification is SYNTACTIC — exact for free/constructor ops, an
+under-approximation for AC overlaps (full AC-unification is NP/infinitary, out
+of scope), but joinability uses the AC-canonical form so AC laws still join
+correctly. This is the CID-stability oracle for the artdag optimiser: an
+optimisation rule set is content-id-stable iff `mau/confluent?` holds.
+
+Pacing down to hardening. Possible niche future work: membership
+axioms (`mb`/`cmb`), critical-pair / confluence checking, meta-search, full
+mixfix (multi-`_` ops, juxtaposition `__`).

 ## Progress log
-_(awaiting Phase 1 — depends on substrate matching maturity from lib/guest/core/match.sx)_
+
+- **Phase 1 (parser + signatures) — DONE, 65/65.** `lib/maude/term.sx` (term
+  repr: var/app dicts, equality, vars, `term->str`) + `lib/maude/parser.sx`
+  (whitespace+bracket tokenizer with `---`/`***` comments; mixfix
+  classification by splitting op names on `_`; precedence-climbing term parser
+  over a pratt table built from op decls; `fmod`/`mod` modules with
+  sorts/subsorts/ops/vars/eqs/rules). Consumes `lib/guest/lex.sx` (ws classes)
+  and `lib/guest/pratt.sx` (op-table lookup). Verified on Peano (`s X + Y`
+  parses `_+_(s_(X), Y)` — prefix binds tighter than infix) and NatList
+  (transitive subsorts NzNat<Nat<List; `_;_` overloaded; `id: nil` / `prec`
+  attrs). ceq/rl/crl parsed structurally (cond split on `if`, label in `[..]`).
+  Suite + conformance driver wired (`lib/maude/conformance.{conf,sh}`, MODE=dict).
+  - Notes for next phases: terms are `{:t :app :op N :args (...)}` /
+    `{:t :var :name N :sort S}`; module carries a `:grammar` so
+    `mau/parse-term-in` can parse term strings against its op table. Overloading
+    is recorded but NOT resolved at parse time (resolve at reduce time).
+
+- **Phase 2 (syntactic reduction) — DONE, 91/91 total.** `lib/maude/reduce.sx`:
+  one-sided syntactic matching (`mau/match` — pattern vars only, non-linear
+  patterns checked by bound-var equality), immutable substitutions via `assoc`,
+  `mau/subst-apply`, top rewrite `mau/rewrite-top` (first unconditional eq whose
+  LHS matches; conditional eqs skipped until Phase 4), innermost normalisation
+  to a fixpoint `mau/normalize` (args normalised before the operator; fuel-
+  guarded). API: `mau/reduce` / `mau/reduce-term` / `mau/reduce->str`. Tested on
+  Peano (+,*), list ops (append/length/rev), a propositional simplifier, and
+  non-linear `same(X,X)`. Innermost is fine for confluent terminating eq sets;
+  Phase 3 will replace the matcher with AC-aware matching (multi-valued).
+
+- **Phase 3 (matching modulo assoc/comm/id) — DONE, 119/119 total. THE CHISEL.**
+  `lib/maude/matching.sx`. `mau/mm` is the multi-valued matcher (returns the
+  full list of substitutions): free=positional, comm=both orderings,
+  assoc=flatten f-spine + ordered sequence match (vars grab contiguous blocks),
+  assoc+comm=multiset match (vars grab sub-multisets via `mau/all-splits` =
+  2^n subset/complement pairs). `id: e` lets a var grab the empty block
+  (contributing e); `mau/var-kmin` gives kmin 0 under id. `mau/canon` is the
+  AC-canonical printout (flatten, drop identities, sort comm args) and powers
+  `mau/ac-equal?` (used for bound-var checks too). AC *rewriting* extends each
+  f-AC equation l=r with rest vars — comm: `f(l,$R)`; assoc: `f($L,l,$R)` —
+  so a rule fires on any sub-multiset/subword (`$`-prefixed rest vars allowed
+  empty). `mau/first-change` walks candidate matches and only commits a rewrite
+  that changes the canonical form — this is what makes idempotency (`X U X = X`)
+  and identity-absorbing matches terminate. API: `mau/ac-reduce` /
+  `mau/ac-reduce->str` / `mau/ac-canon` / `mau/match-all`. Verified: AC match
+  counts (X+Y vs a+b+c = 6), bag collapse, set dedup with empty, group
+  cancellation (assoc non-comm + inverse).
+  - Notes for next phases: AC matching is multi-valued — Phase 5 rule
+    application should iterate ALL of `mau/mm`'s results, not just first. The
+    `mau/ac-rewrite-eq` extension trick (rest vars) is the reusable core for
+    a future `lib/guest/rewriting/` (Phase 8). Keep `mau/canon` as the equality
+    oracle. `$EMPTY` is a transient marker for empty rest blocks w/o id; never
+    leaks past `mau/restv`.
+
+- **Phase 4 (conditional equations) — DONE, 138/138 total.**
+  `lib/maude/conditional.sx` is a condition-aware superset of the Phase 3
+  reducer. `mau/eq-candidates` enumerates (subst, result) pairs for an
+  equation (AC via rest-var extension `mau/ac-candidates`, else `mau/mm`);
+  `mau/try-candidates` commits the first candidate that both makes progress
+  (canonical form changes) AND whose guard holds. `mau/cond-holds?` evaluates
+  `{:kind :eq}` guards (reduce both sides, `ac-equal?`) and `{:kind :bool}`
+  guards (reduce, `=AC= true`), recursing through `mau/cnormalize` — same
+  reducer, so guards can mention other (conditional) equations. Public:
+  `mau/creduce` / `mau/creduce->str` / `mau/ccanon`. Verified on gcd
+  (subtractive, recursive guard), insertion sort (true/false branches), max,
+  and even (bool-kind `if pred` guard).
+  - Notes for next phases: `mau/creduce` is the canonical reducer now; Phase 5
+    rules reduce to normal form via creduce between rewrite steps. `_:_` cons
+    parses LEFT-assoc (no `gather` support yet) — write list literals
+    right-parenthesized, or add a `gather`/parse-assoc attr later if a test
+    needs bare `a : b : c`.
+
+- **Phase 5 (system modules + rewrite rules) — DONE, 159/159 total.**
+  `lib/maude/rewrite.sx` + `lib/maude/fire.sx`. Rules (rl/crl) reuse the
+  equation firing machinery (a rule dict is shaped like an eq). `mau/rewrite`
+  is the default strategy: normalise with eqs (`creduce`), fire ONE rule
+  top-down/leftmost-outermost/first-applicable, renormalise, repeat (bounded
+  by fuel). `mau/rew m src n` = bounded `rew [n]`. `mau/search` is BFS over
+  ALL one-step successors (`mau/all-successors`) for reachability — solves the
+  branching `goal` reachable only off the path `rew` takes. Verified: AC
+  multiset coin-change (rule on a sub-multiset), cyclic traffic light (bounded),
+  branching nondeterminism (rew vs search), conditional `crl` clock, eq/rule
+  interleaving.
+  - **PERF (important):** `lib/maude/fire.sx` is the short-circuiting matcher —
+    `mau/fire-eq` finds the FIRST productive match via predicate-threaded
+    `mau/ms-find`/`mau/seq-find` instead of materialising the whole solution
+    set. Without it, AC rewriting on N identical elements is exponential
+    (`q;q;q;q;q;q;q;q` went 60s+ → <1s). The eager `mau/match-multiset` /
+    `mau/eq-candidates` are kept ONLY for `mau/match-all` and `search` (which
+    truly need every solution). Phase 4 `creduce` and Phase 5 rules both fire
+    via `mau/fire-eq`. Keep this split: never route single-step rewriting
+    through the eager enumerator.
+  - Notes: juxtaposition `__` (empty-token mixfix) and `gather` are NOT parsed —
+    use an explicit infix op for multisets and right-parenthesise list literals.
+    `.` can't be an op token (statement terminator). `mau/search` is the prime
+    Phase 7 reflection / Phase 8 extraction target alongside the matcher.
+
+- **Phase 6 (strategy language) — DONE, 178/178 total.**
+  `lib/maude/strategy.sx`. Strategies are first-class tagged-dict VALUES and
+  set-valued: `mau/sapply ctx strat term` → deduped (by canon) list of results.
+  Combinators: `idle`/`fail`/`all`/`rule LABEL`/`seq`/`alt`/`star`/`plus`/`bang`
+  /`name`. `seq` = flatmap B over A's results; `alt` = union; `star` = reflexive-
+  transitive closure (BFS, canon-deduped); `plus` = A then star; `bang` =
+  normal forms (reachable terms where A yields nothing). Named strategies via a
+  NAME->strategy env dict passed to `mau/srun`/`mau/srun-canon`. Verified that
+  the same rule set computes different things under different strategies
+  (single rule vs all vs seq order vs alt vs star vs bang). Built on Phase 5
+  `mau/all-successors` (rule label filter = `mau/rules-with-label`).
+  - Note: `dict-set!` returns the value, not the dict — build a named-strategy
+    env by binding `(define env {})` then `(dict-set! env ...)`, pass `env`.
+    `srun-canon` sorts results so expected lists must be sorted.
+
+- **Phase 7 (reflection / META-LEVEL) — DONE, 196/196 total.**
+  `lib/maude/meta.sx`. `mau/up-term` re-encodes an object term as a term built
+  from meta-constructors `mt-var`(name,sort) / `mt-app`(op, args...) — a
+  represented term is itself a first-class object term you can build, inspect,
+  transform. `mau/down-term` reverses (round-trips). Reflective ops:
+  `mau/meta-reduce` / `mau/meta-rewrite` / `mau/meta-apply LABEL` take and
+  return represented terms. `mau/meta-circular?` verifies the law
+  `down(metaReduce(up t)) =AC= reduce t` (reflection agrees with the object
+  level). `mau/meta-prove-equal?` is a generic equational theorem helper
+  (prove an identity by joint reduction). Verified: up/down round-trip,
+  meta-reduce returns a represented normal form, meta-circular law on Peano,
+  meta-apply of a single rule, commutativity/associativity instance proofs,
+  and building a program at the meta level then running it.

+# Re-implementing rose-ash on SX — migration strategy
+
+Status: **strategy proposal** (drafted by the `radar` loop, 2026-06-07). Not a
+unilateral architecture decision — a starting point for the fleet to refine. Radar's
+role here is detection: the `*-on-sx` subsystems have converged into a host-agnostic
+re-implementation of rose-ash's domain logic, so this doc proposes *when* and *how* to
+wire them to production.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Premise: we are ~70% into a re-implementation already
+
+The fleet of `lib/<x>` SX subsystems is not a set of experiments — it is rose-ash's
+domain logic, re-expressed substrate-by-substrate, deliberately **host-agnostic**:
+
+| SX subsystem (`lib/`) | rose-ash production domain |
+|---|---|
+| content-on-sx (CRDT docs, versioning, `page.sx` HTML render) | **blog** |
+| commerce-on-sx (catalog, pricing, cart, order + refund sagas) | **market + cart + orders** |
+| events-on-sx (calendar, ticketing, booking) | **events** |
+| feed-on-sx (activity streams, AP-shaped, threading) | **federation** |
+| identity-on-sx (OAuth2, sessions, grants, membership) | **account** |
+| acl-on-sx (permissions) | cross-cutting authZ |
+| relations / likes | **relations / likes** (internal) |
+| persist-on-sx (log / kv / snapshot facets) | per-service Postgres layer |
+| flow-on-sx (durable sagas) | order/refund/delivery workflows |
+| mod-on-sx, search-on-sx | new capabilities |
+
+**The architectural enabler:** every core was built with *injected seams* — `permit?`,
+`send-fn`/`fetch-fn`, `transport`, `dispatch`, `backend`. That is ports-and-adapters
+(hexagonal) on purpose. Evidence from the radar backlog (`plans/abstractions.md`):
+W1 (7/7 federation modules inject the fed-sx transport), W4 (content/commerce/events run
+live on `persist/log`), W8 (events+commerce run sagas on `lib/flow`). **The cores do not
+depend on how they're hosted, persisted, or federated.**
+
+**Corollary that makes the whole migration tractable:** because logic is separated from
+rendering and storage, we can hold the **domain logic to parity** while **freely
+redesigning the presentation** — the two are different layers with different rules.
+
+---
+
+## 2. The gating insight: the cores are *ahead of the host*
+
+The domain logic is mature. What is *not* yet production-grade is the **host trio** — and
+that is the real critical path:
+
+- **host-on-sx** — HTTP / request-response / session host (briefing exists; the OCaml SX
+  HTTP server already serves `sx.rose-ash.com`).
+- **host-persist** — durable storage adapter (real disk/pg/ipfs) under `persist`'s
+  facets (content-addressed blob blocker recently closed).
+- **fed-sx** — the real ActivityPub transport every core injects (well into m2).
+
+> **So "when do we start?" answers itself: start when the host trio is production-grade,
+> not when the cores are done — they mostly already are.** Prioritise the host loops over
+> further domain features.
+
+---
+
+## 3. The model: duplicate → cut over → diverge (per slice)
+
+This is the "duplicate first, then change" approach, made precise. Each domain slice goes
+through three phases independently:
+
+**Phase A — Duplicate (hold logic to parity).** Stand the SX implementation of the slice
+up *in parallel*, behind the existing edge, serving no users yet. Get its **domain/data
+behaviour** to match Python (see §4 on how). Presentation can start as a rough port or an
+early new design — it doesn't have to match.
+
+**Phase B — Cut over (strangler flip).** Point the edge route for that slice at the SX
+host. Python stays as instant rollback. The slice is now live on SX.
+
+**Phase C — Diverge (change freely).** With the slice live and validated, evolve the
+look/feel and functionality on the SX side. The validated domain logic underneath is
+untouched, so UX/feature changes can't silently corrupt data.
+
+You never rewrite the whole platform at once; you walk slices through A→B→C, oldest tree
+strangled last.
+
+---
+
+## 4. The two techniques, and how "we'll change things" reshapes them
+
+### Strangler edge
+The edge (Caddy) is the front door every request hits. Add routing rules so **one route
+at a time** goes to the SX host while everything else still goes to Python. Properties:
+the site is never half-broken; any single route flips back to Python instantly; the old
+app is strangled route-by-route. (Opposite of big-bang swap, which is how these die.)
+
+### Shadow diff — split by layer
+Run the new version on real traffic in the background, discard its output, and **log how
+it differs** from Python. Flip the edge only when diffs are zero/intended.
+
+But because we *intend* to change look/feel + functionality, parity is a tool we apply
+**only where we want sameness**, not a straitjacket:
+
+| Layer | Want parity? | Oracle |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Domain/data** (totals, tax, permissions, what's stored, who-sees-what) | **YES — silent difference = data corruption** | shadow-diff at the *core* boundary; deterministic cores → replay real request logs through the harness and diff |
+| **Presentation/UX** (HTML, layout, look, feel, flows) | **NO — this is what we're changing** | manual QA + design review; this is the Phase-C divergence |
+
+Practical shape: shadow-diff hits the **domain core's output** (the computed order, the
+visible-activity set, the permission decision) — not the rendered HTML. The deterministic,
+harness-replayable cores are the single biggest advantage we have here; it's the same
+parity discipline that made the A1 conformance migration safe (one reference slice, hard
+parity gate, revert on mismatch).
+
+---
+
+## 5. Readiness gates (start the production migration when ALL hold)
+
+1. **Host trio production-grade** — host-on-sx (HTTP/session), host-persist (durable
+   adapter), fed-sx (AP transport) — each conformance-green.
+2. **Data-migration story exists** — a way to get existing production Postgres state into
+   `persist` event streams (event-source the current state, or dual-write during overlap).
+   This is the honest long-pole; it is *not* domain logic and nobody has built it yet.
+3. **One vertical slice proven end-to-end** at data-parity in production — the reference
+   migration, the way the conformance loop migrated one subsystem before the rest.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Sequencing
+
+1. **Host trio first** (critical path — it's behind the cores).
+2. **Build the strangler edge + shadow-diff harness** as first-class tooling: edge routing
+   rules + a dual-run logger that diffs *core outputs* (not HTML) and stores discrepancies.
+3. **First slice = lowest risk × highest readiness × cleanest data oracle.**
+   Recommended: **the blog read path (content-on-sx)** or **the feed read path**
+   — read-heavy, no money, CRDT/versioning + `page.sx` HTML already exist, and the data
+   oracle is clean. *Avoid cart/orders/payments first* (transactional + SumUp webhooks =
+   highest blast radius).
+4. **Persistence-first, federation-last.** Land host-persist + migrate per-domain event
+   stores before any cutover. Do fed-sx federation as a *coordinated* cut near the end —
+   W1 shows all 7 cores light up federation together once the shared transport ships.
+5. **Walk the remaining slices A→B→C**, retiring Python routes as each cuts over.
+
+---
+
+## 7. The honest long tail (mostly host + adapters, not cores)
+
+The cores are pure domain logic; the production *tail* is not in them yet and is most of
+the remaining real effort:
+
+- Auth: first-party cookies / Safari-ITP, CSRF, silent SSO, grant caching.
+- Cross-cutting: rate limiting, observability/metrics, error pages, caching.
+- Integrations: SumUp payment + webhooks, Ghost CMS sync.
+- Presentation: the actual HTMX templates + CSS (this is also where the redesign happens).
+- **Live data migration** — the single biggest non-core workstream.

+## 8. Concrete next steps
+
+1. Treat the **host trio** as the fleet's critical path; prioritise over more domain features.
+2. Stand up the **strangler edge + core-level shadow-diff harness** as a tool.
+3. Prove **one slice** (blog/content read path) end-to-end in production as the reference.
+4. **Spec the Postgres → persist data migration** (the long-pole nobody has started).
+5. Then walk slices through duplicate → cut over → diverge, redesigning UX in Phase C.
+

+
+## 9. Why this is low-risk despite being a platform rewrite
+
+- It's **wiring host-agnostic cores to a host**, not rewriting domain logic from scratch.
+- The **strangler edge** means the site always works and any route reverts in seconds.
+- **Deterministic cores** make data-parity *mechanically checkable* (replay + diff), so
+  correctness isn't a matter of faith.
+- **Logic/presentation separation** lets us change look/feel + functionality (Phase C)
+  *without* re-risking the validated domain logic.
+- It's the **same discipline that just shipped A1**: one reference migration, a hard
+  parity gate, honest exclusions, verify-before-merge.
