EndUnsendable put the SocketException's message on the wire, the
platform's wording. SendErrorCode names a permanent failure EMSGSIZE,
EINVAL or EAFNOSUPPORT, anything else UNKNOWN, so every runtime's
unsendable goodbye reads "packet could not be sent: CODE" with the same
codes.

The schema server's backstop ended every session with "session refused
a packet", including when the fault was the server's own: for example a
handler's response too large to send, or a refusal the handler did not
type. Decoding and handling are now two catches:
- A message that cannot be decoded is the peer's. The session ends with
the refusal reason.
- A handler fault ends the session with "server could not handle a
message".
The transport's EndRefusedPeer becomes EndPeerSession(peer, reason). It
reports whether it ended the session, so the log says when a response
that failed after its first fragment had already ended it over the send.
Before, the log reported that it ended a session that was already gone.
The comment said that ending the session matched cultmesh-py. It does
not: Python silently skips a malformed frame. The honest anchor is the
C# TCP schema server, whose ServePeerAsync ends the one peer whose
message fails to decode or handle. The comment now says so.
Pinned, each by a test that kills its mutant:
- a handler fault's goodbye carries the server's reason, not the refusal
(mutant: the refusal reason);
- the post-fragment-0 path logs that the session had already ended
(mutant: a constant outcome);
- EndPeerSession says no goodbye to a replaced peer's endpoint (mutant:
the Ended check dropped);
- a refused peer's frames still queued are never handled (mutant: the
queue purge dropped).

3b9ffac2 claimed that the generation check subsumed the UnsendableReason
once-guard. It did not. A thread that reads the generation only after
the session has ended carries the ended session's own generation, and the
check lets it through. For example, the polling thread answers a Ping on a
session that a caller's send has just ended but that has not yet been
retired. When that Pong fails permanently, the thread says a second
goodbye and overwrites the first failure's reason (Soul pass 4, PR4).
EndUnsendableSession now also returns when the session has already ended.
Two tests:
- The polling thread answers a Ping on a session already ended, and the
Pong can never be sent. Exactly one goodbye goes out, and the first
failure's reason stands. The hook admits the Ping after the session
ended and before the peer is queued for retirement. The test kills the
mutant that drops the Ended check.
- A failed send's goodbye is sent under the gate. A polling thread
admitting a new Connect from the endpoint waits on the gate, so the old
generation's goodbye never follows the new session's Accept. The test
kills the mutant that sends the goodbye outside the gate.

RudpCultNetSchemaServer decoded each schema frame outside its per-message
backstop, so a malformed payload (0xc1) or a well-formed message with an
unknown schemaVersion threw MessagePackSerializationException out of
PollAvailableAsync and PollOnceAsync. The drain aborted: a good peer's
request in the same drain went unserved, a consumer loop that did not
catch died, and the bad frame was already acknowledged while its peer
stayed connected.
Decoding now runs inside the backstop. A peer whose message cannot be
decoded or handled has its session ended: the transport's new
EndRefusedPeer sends the refusal goodbye under the gate, counts the drop
in PacketsDropped, drops that peer's frames still queued, forgets the
peer and raises PeerDisconnected. A session that already ended (replaced
by a new Connect, or ended by a send failure) gets no goodbye, since the
endpoint may belong to a new session. Other peers in the drain are still
served. Ending the session matches cultmesh-py's server, where one
peer's bad message ends that peer; runtime parity is the reason.
The log names the fault's type only and never its message, because the
decoder's message quotes the peer's input (the unknown schemaVersion).
The dispatch-backstop test now asserts that rule instead of the handler
message it used to require.
Tests, each failing on the pre-fix code: a malformed payload and an
unknown schemaVersion each leave the good peer served without Poll
throwing (also through PollOnceAsync); the bad peer's session ends,
counted and told; the log carries the type and not the canary value.

Send ended an unsendable session after releasing SessionGate, and the
goodbye was built under the gate but sent outside it. If the polling
thread admitted a new Connect from the same endpoint in that window, the
ended generation's goodbye reached the new client: it saw Data, Accept,
Disconnect and believed itself disconnected while the listener held it
connected.
Every path that finds a permanent send failure now reads the session's
generation under the gate at the send, and EndUnsendableSession builds
and sends the goodbye under the gate only while that generation is
unchanged. The generation check replaces the UnsendableReason once-guard:
a second failure in the same generation finds it already ended.
The test orders the new Connect inside the send, before the fragment
that can never be sent, and asserts the new client hears no Disconnect
and stays connected on both sides. It fails on the pre-fix code
(Data, Accept, Disconnect) and kills the mutant that drops the check.

The document servers' refusal tests sent an unreliable fragment, whose
sequence the session never records, so dropping the reset before the goodbye
survived. They now refuse a reliable fragment and check the goodbye does not
acknowledge it.
C#: a BeforeSend seam orders a caller's failing send between the polling
thread's ack and its send, so both threads end the same session; the peer
hears one goodbye.

A caller still holding the replaced peer (a schema handler awaiting work for
it) could send into the endpoint the new session owns: a goodbye after a
partial failure disconnected the new client, a fixed initial sequence
delivered the stale frame in place of the real one, and a drawn one stalled
the new session. The replaced session now ends under the SessionGate every
Send takes, so a stale Send throws and nothing of it leaves.

A caller-directed Send that failed after a fragment left called
EndUnsendablePeer on the caller's thread, removing from _peers and raising
PeerDisconnected while the polling thread could be changing _peers too.
Send now ends the session and sends the goodbye under the peer's
SessionGate, and queues the peer; TryReceiveOnce and PollResends retire
queued peers before anything else. A peer a new Connect already replaced
is skipped, so a stale peer object cannot remove the peer that replaced it.

The injected permanent failure now takes precedence over the injected transient
one, so a test can end a session on a peer that is also losing datagrams and
count exactly which datagrams were attempted afterwards. New tests: a hub
disconnect that can never be sent returns the error; a peer or session ended
in the resend loop is sent nothing more (Rust hub, document server, C#); the
goodbye reaches the peer; the Python server ends the session on a permanent
failure in a resend, an ack and an accept. The oversized-send test compares the
outstanding count with the one the hub's own unacknowledged Accept already
holds.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The listener swallowed every send failure as a counted loss. A send now splits
into permanent (MessageSize, InvalidArgument, AddressFamilyNotSupported: the
datagram can never be sent as built) and transient (everything else, still a
counted loss). SendSchema throws the SocketException and queues nothing, with
the packets it created withdrawn and their sequences reissued; a permanent
failure after an earlier fragment left ends the session. Inside a poll the
failure ends that peer's session, PeerDisconnected carries a reason naming the
error, and the poll is never failed. Tests pin each path, the classification,
BytesSent after a healthy send and a zero failure count.

The bound summed only packets still awaiting an ack. Once frames above a lost
packet were acknowledged they stopped counting, so a receiver could be made to
hold more than 4 MiB behind one loss, and its hold buffer ended the session.
The sender now keeps the payload size of each acknowledged sequence above the
lowest pending one until the lowest advances past it, in Rust, TypeScript,
Python and C#. Tests per runtime: one lost packet, four acknowledged 1 MiB
frames, the fifth refused until the gap closes; and the floor moving to a new
lowest sequence.

Cut 1: one watermark owns ordered delivery, seeded only by the handshake.
Cut 1b: every ending drops what the session still owed; flush is bound
to its generation. Cut 1c: a Connect repeats only by its sequence;
stale data and stale Connects are handled as TCP does (challenge Ack);
an unanswered attempt retries at +window-1; the session draws its
initial sequence. Wire bytes unchanged in all four runtimes. Five Soul
passes. Public option types changed: initial_sequence is optional.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
While a Connect awaits its Accept, only an Accept the client honours retires it. An Ack that names the Connect (a server's reply to a repeat or a stale copy) no longer wedges the client with nothing to resend. The Connect payload lives on the session, so a fresh attempt can always be built. The fresh attempt uses the abandoned sequence plus the receive window less one (serial), so a late copy of the abandoned Connect stays inside the new one's stale window; only a session's first Connect draws at random.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A frame at or before the seeded watermark is a duplicate of an earlier generation and is acknowledged, never delivered again (serial compare within the receive window). A Connect that precedes the current generation's within the window is a stale copy of an earlier attempt: it is answered like a repeat (Accept owed or Ack), changes no state and does not refresh liveness. A Connect unanswered for 3 s is replaced by a fresh Connect with a newly drawn sequence and the same payload. In server mode a Connect from another endpoint is always a new generation. The initial sequence is unset by default and each session draws its own; the public random helper is removed.
An accepted peer now stamps its liveness on accept, so one that goes silent times out.

F1: RecordUnappliedEntry keeps the primary's wire entry on the in-memory log
entry (internal Relayed) and ToLogEntryMessage returns it through the same
normalisation the store uses, so a replica with no store no longer relays a
skipped put as a delete; memory and disk relay identically.
Soul's 4d probes are committed (chained replica keeps the row, key-prefixed
reads serve only owned keys, primary-all serves everything; the two
measurements are explicit) with a memory/disk relay-parity test.
Rust: captured-bytes cases for unowned_schema and variant_unsupported (with and
without a subscription).
The error-code set is stated as a closed enum in the schema description (both
copies) and in cultnet-distributed-database.md: adding a code is one
coordinated change across runtimes, since Rust and TypeScript refuse an unknown
code. The Soul 4c probe file's header says what it guards.

A bounded session whose queue still held an unacknowledged Accept for a peer
that vanished refused the next Connect; the old server-mode path reset before
accepting, so this would have been a regression. accept_connect and
create_connect now end the generation first in every runtime, and a test per
runtime holds a one-slot queue to it.

The dispose test showed journal-first alone still lost the change: Dispose won the race against the writer's publication and cleared the stash. Dispose now drains the stash through the publisher after the journal is disposed (so nothing is stashed afterwards) and before the subject completes.

Q1: HandlePutAsync/HandleDeleteAsync catch a CultNetShardLogException (or an
AggregateException holding one) before the generic catch and answer nothing: the
write committed and was published, so the peer is not told it was refused. It is
logged at warning level. The wire has no committed-with-degraded-log message.
Q2: GetAsync/GetAll/GetByName/GetByIndex, the shard-less snapshot, the selection
and the subscription snapshot serve only rows a shard owns, so read and watch
agree; the CultMesh collections follow through GetAll, and the Mesh untyped
variant fallback checks ownership. The raw cache still holds everything.
Q3: a replica log apply skips a row its shard does not own, as the snapshot path
does, and still records the entry so a chained replica sees no gap.
API: rowFilter is internal (public CreateSelectionResponse and
CreateRawSnapshotResponse signatures restored, internal overloads added);

The session records the sequence of the Connect that started its generation. A
Connect repeats exactly when the session is connected and carries that
sequence; anything else ends the generation, forgets the peer and accepts a new
one. AcceptConnect answers both, ConnectRepeats is the predicate for servers
that keep one session per peer, and AnswerRepeatedConnect is private. Server
mode admits a Connect from a new endpoint and the session decides; the listener
no longer compares payloads (the payload stays application evidence).
CreateConnect on a session that has had a peer starts a new generation. An
Accept counts only while the Connect is pending and only if it names it. The
watermark is seeded by the Connect or Accept alone; reliable data before that
is neither remembered, acknowledged nor delivered. The default initial sequence
is random in [1, 2^31) in every options type. An ICMP connection reset no
longer sets DisconnectReason: nothing ended. The interop peer flushes before it
disconnects.

ResolveShard now throws for an unowned schema, so one such cached row would
have failed the whole selection. The server passes a row filter
(CultNetDatabase.Owns) to CreateSelectionResponse, which gains an optional
rowFilter that SelectPage already took, so those rows are not part of what the
database serves and the rest is answered.

ResolveShardInternal throws CultNetUnownedSchemaException instead of falling
back to the first shard. PutAsync, DeleteAsync, PutPredictedAsync,
ApplyPutAsync and ApplyDeleteAsync refuse an unowned schema before the cache is
touched; a remote put reaches the server's generic catch and is answered as an
application rejection like any other refused remote put. ResolveShard throws
(documented), CanWriteAuthoritatively returns false, and a bare cache write no
shard owns is neither logged nor published. The unused string overload of
EnsureClientAuthority is deleted. No GameCult consumer configures shards
outside vendored CultLib copies; the default shard owns everything.

PutAsync and DeleteAsync carry no door, so the journal cannot place an unowned
schema and now skips it; accepting the write anyway was a silent loss of
replication. They resolve their shard strictly and throw
CultNetUnownedSchemaException (an InvalidOperationException naming the schema)
before the cache is touched. Doors keep the fallback shard they were resolved
to. No GameCult consumer configures shards outside vendored CultLib copies:
AetheriaEve's node uses the default PrimaryAll shard, which owns everything.

F1: InitializeLogSequencesFromStore raises the in-memory floor to the highest
gap above the store's compaction point, so a restart after a double refusal or
an interrupted compaction answers compacted_history instead of a gapped log.
F2: the journal raises one CultNetShardLogException per call carrying every
burned (shard, sequence); the unwrap rule for a cache-aggregated hold is
documented on the exception and on the cache commit.
F3: TakeDoor no longer refuses a door whose instance is the cached one, so
mutate-then-predict publishes Predicted and is not logged.
F6: a door-less change no shard matches is not logged; doors keep the
fallback shard they were resolved to.
Dispose disposes the journal before the observer. The log store doc says a
slow store blocks cache readers. Soul F4 is ignored as an accepted follow-up,
M1 is explicit.

Admission in Rust, C#, TypeScript and Python goes through one predicate,
window_admits: the 32-packet slot, a sequence at most 1,023 above the lowest
unacked one, and at most 4 MiB of payload above it. With nothing pending any
packet is admissible. Admission is FIFO: nothing overtakes a queued packet.
The single-packet send refuses on the same predicate instead of queueing a
packet and then reporting that it produced none. The receive window is stated
in docs/cultnet-transport-parity.md. Kotlin trails (Cut K3).

Each session gets one private primitive that ends its current generation:
not connected, pending and queued writes dropped, generation advanced,
"ended" raised until the next Connect or Accept begins one. A peer's
Disconnect, a local disconnect, a timeout and a reset (refusal included) all
call it, and it leaves what was received from the peer alone. The socket
transports' flush captures the session generation and fails when it changes
or the session has ended, in all four runtimes; the disconnect reason and,
in TypeScript, the transport's generation pair are report-only or gone. Rust
receipts carry the generation in place of the session scope UUID, so a
receipt reads Invalidated after any ending and stays so after a reconnect.

The per-channel next pointer, its first-use initialisation, the skip over
other channels' sequences, and the per-channel drain are deleted. Each
session keeps one contiguous received-through watermark, seeded by the
peer's Connect or Accept (or the first packet of an unhandshaken session),
advanced in the received-sequence bookkeeping. Ordered frames wait in one
map keyed by first sequence, and every reliable receipt drains the frames at
or below watermark + 1 in sequence order, after the unordered frame of the
same call. A frame is held only while a sequence below it is missing, so a
5 MiB ordered frame with no gap is never held. Rust bounds what is still
held after the drain (frames, bytes, channels with held frames).

Cut 4b-4d of the publication map. The reorder buffer, drainer, prediction gate
and the logging inside the Watch handler are gone. The database registers the
Watch observer, then one cache journal. The journal runs under the gate in
Sequence order: it takes the door, decides the change kind and prediction
bookkeeping, logs (a primary mints, a replica records the primary's entry) and
stashes the change; the Watch observer publishes the stash entry by Sequence.
A primary that cannot log a committed change burns that sequence, raises its
own compaction floor, tries CompactThrough, and throws CultNetShardLogException
(not an InvalidOperationException) after publication. A replica's refused
append reaches the pull loop and the cursor does not advance.
Fixes four defects the map named: the log is appended to disk before memory
(and memory is a SortedList keyed by sequence); the snapshot reads its log
sequence before its documents; a restart resumes above the compaction point;
GetCompactedMutationLogSequence and GetLatestMutationLogSequence honour the
in-memory floor. The snapshot removal door sets Removal.

FlushReliable throws for writes an ended session forgot. A server-mode
transport and the listener answer a Connect from the peer they already hold
with AnswerRepeatedConnect: the Accept still owed, or an Ack, queueing
nothing. The listener replaced the peer session on every Connect, reusing
sequences and never reporting PeerDisconnected; it now replaces only on a
different connect payload and reports the old peer, as the Rust hub does.

CultNetRudpPacketCodec.Decode did checked((int)length), so a datagram declaring
0x80000000 threw OverflowException, which no receive loop catches; the length
is now compared as a long and takes the ordinary malformed-packet drop.
Server mode claimed its endpoint on the first datagram of any type; only a
Connect claims it now. A session that refuses a packet has already recorded
its reliable sequence, so the socket transport and the listener end it: the
session forgets the peer (so the goodbye does not acknowledge the refused
frame), the peer gets a Disconnect, the listener drops the peer and raises
PeerDisconnected, and a server-mode transport forgets its endpoint.
CultNetRudpSession gains ResetPeerState, and the session and the listener
reject an InitialSequence of uint.MaxValue.

A malformed frame, a foreign connection id or a packet the session refuses

The handler now parks a change ahead of a gap and drains one thread at a time, so
the log and stream follow cache admission order and a subscriber that writes the
cache queues behind the change it handles. A door context matches only a change of
its own shape: a put door wrote an instance no cache held, a removal door removes
it, so neither a plain removal nor an in-place re-upsert can wear it. A replica
records every primary entry even when the key is absent, so chained replicas see
no gap. Predictions are locked and cleared by the handler before publication.

The previous cut left two owners of publication: doors published and logged their
own change while a flow-scoped key mark told the Watch handler to skip it. A write
an observer made to the door key inside that scope was dropped, a door change and
its re-resolved variant were logged in the wrong order, and log state was
unlocked. Doors now register the context they alone know (wire message,
reconciled prediction, replicated entry) under the identity of the instance they
write or remove; the Watch handler consumes it once for that change and is the
sole publisher and logger. Only a shard primary mints log sequences; a replica
logs only the primary entries its replica door hands over. Log state sits under
one gate. The AsyncLocal mark and every door-side publish or append are deleted.

CultNetDatabase watched OnUpdate, which fires for loads alone, so cache.Commit,
cache.UpsertAsync, variant dependents re-resolved by a base edit and Flatten never
reached subscribers or the mutation log, and a load removal carried an empty key.
The database now observes cache.Watch, the one owner of admitted changes. A write
door of the database (PutAsync, DeleteAsync, ApplyPut/Delete, replica apply, sync)
marks the key it is committing and publishes that change itself, since it carries
the shard-log entry; every other change publishes from the cache, keyed.

Reconcile's withdrawal sent an untyped error with no subscription id and left the
peer holding the rows the subscription had delivered. It now sends removals for
those rows, then a variant_unsupported error whose details carry
field "subscriptionId" and the id (the existing details slots; no new wire key).
The subscribe and per-change paths use the same code. The error schema and the
Rust CultNetErrorCode accept variant_unsupported, so a Rust peer decodes it
instead of refusing an unknown code.

An edge carries the reference payload of its citer's resolved document, and the
citer is never a selected row under `cited`, so a variant citer slipped past the
selected-row refusal. Edges are now checked by the same rule (typed
NotSupportedException naming the variant), on the paged and the whole-set paths.
Reconcile refused a hop subscriber whose selection selected a variant without
withdrawing it, so it was told again on every store change. It withdraws as the
subscribe path does.

The selection paths (SelectPage, SelectAll) refused every stored variant before the selection ran, so once any variant existed a hop-bearing subscription threw out of its change handler and went silent.

The database server no longer sends removed for a key the subscriber only ever received as an error. A flatten racing the delivery check is recorded in a comment.

A load or write that landed a variant reached CultNet subscribers as a plain
"added" record carrying the full resolved payload; a later base edit published
only the base, so the subscriber's copy of the variant went stale. Under Q6
CultNet carries no variants until its own cut. Both live paths now refuse a
change whose key holds a variant, after selection and authorization match, and
send the matching subscriber a CultNetErrorMessage naming the variant and its
base. Refused loudly rather than omitted: an omission is a silent hole in the
subscriber's view, and the snapshot path already refuses by throwing.
Tests: a real load through a real RUDP subscription never delivers the variant
as a record and delivers the typed error; the database server's change builder
refuses the same change.

A variant record stores [baseKey, overrides[]] in record slot 4 and an empty
payload; the cache resolves it against its base inside the hold that admits it or
any record on its base chain, and re-resolves dependents in the same Apply, so a
base change reaches its variants with contiguous sequences and no stamp. Plain
Upsert at a variant key is refused (Flatten is the explicit way); cycle, missing
base, different concrete type, evicted base with survivors and a name that
shadows the base are refused naming the keys. Overrides of a dropped slot or an
undecodable value are ignored with a warning and reported as compatible drift.
The store writes cultcache.store.v2 only when it holds a variant and reads v1 and
v2. The codec pair CultInspectorModel took becomes CultCodec, shared with the
cache, which needs it to clone documents and overlay override values. The
directory store, CultMesh single-file reads and CultNet row building refuse a
variant by name until their own cuts.

Soul could not construct a selection where To.SchemaId decides the
EdgesFor/page_edges order once From, Role and To.RecordKey already
tie, but flagged that as a claim, not a proof - the same shape of
argument that was wrong twice before on this comparator (R-AT).
Traced instead of asserted: TryResolveReferenceTarget (C#) and
resolve_reference_target (Rust) resolve a reference purely from the
citer's schema, the role, and the record key, against the evaluation's
own fixed candidate index (byKey/by_key) - no edge- or caller-specific
input steers which candidate wins. Once From and Role tie (pinning the
citer's schema and the declared target type/leaves) and To.RecordKey
also ties, the resolved row - schema included - is forced identical by
construction, in both runtimes, every time. No mutation can distinguish
it because no input can, so it was deleted rather than recorded as
"equivalent": a component nothing can distinguish is a line every
future reader must reason about for no behavioural gain.
Deletes the To.Descriptor.SchemaId/to.schema_id() ThenBy/then_with from
CultNetSelectionEvaluator.EdgesFor and selection.rs's page_edges sort,
and updates the comments (in-code and the Survivor 5 test block) that

HandleSnapshotRequestV1Async only caught the three typed selection
exceptions, unlike its siblings HandleShardLogRequestAsync/HandlePutAsync,
which catch Exception and answer a CultNetErrorMessage. An untyped fault
(e.g. a null Selection) escaped into the RUDP dispatch backstop, which
swallowed it with no log - the same backstop that hid SM-6's
ArgumentNullException regression for a whole batch.
- HandleSnapshotRequestV1Async now catches Exception like its siblings and
answers a CultNetErrorMessage.
- RudpCultNetSchemaServer gets a Logger (ILogger/NullLogger, same pattern as
Server/Client), and DispatchAsync's backstop always logs the fault it
swallows, unwrapping DynamicInvoke's TargetInvocationException wrapper so
the logged message is the handler's real exception, not the generic
invocation-wrapper text.

matched it to the reference member's edges by role string, and
`member.TargetType!` was null.
Two independent fixes, both regression-tested:
- Restore the guard, delete the false comment. Pinned directly by hand-
building the colliding descriptor via reflection (bypassing the registry,
since D10b below now refuses that shape at the only production door).
- D10b: registration now refuses a plain member whose bare name collides
with a reference member's alias in the reference-role namespace
(IndexAlias ?? MemberName), not just alias-vs-alias.
