R1's rules win where both sides decided the same question: a zero-byte file is
not a store (refused as unreadable in every runtime), only nothing at the path is
empty, a dangling link is an I/O error, refusals never echo stored values and echo
a header only as cultcache.store.v<digits>, writes report Rejected, NotReplaced
and ReplacedNotDurable. C2a's rules win on what it added: the v3 element-id
header, variants, whole-file proof, typed unreadable errors in C#, TypeScript and
Python. Rust keeps R1's CultCacheStoreUnreadable{path, kind}; C2a's
StoreUnreadableError is deleted. The readability manifest's zero-byte row is
refuses x4.
Not yet built or tested: verification follows in the next commits.

F7 (operator, 2026-09-30): "Schema aliasing sounds like a really bad idea,
I support retiring it." CultNetDocumentRegistry::register inserted into its
type and schema-id maps unconditionally, so the last binding for a schema id
won, as the TypeScript registry did before 9adea366.
- register returns Result and refuses a binding whose type already holds
another schema id, or whose schema id another type holds, with
cultcache_rs::SchemaConflictError: the new binding's schema id, both
document types (a binding carries no schema name), an empty record key.
Nothing is bound on refusal. Binding a type to the schema id it holds
again replaces the binding.
- Call sites propagate the refusal: the cultmesh-rs registry macro, the
interop peer example, and the tests.
- Tests renamed to what they test: raw snapshot replication hydrates the
receiver's own type for the schema; a reactive document coalesces direct
member writes.
- New test: both claimant shapes in both orders, the first binding intact
afterwards, and a same-type rebind replacing.

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>
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.

cultnet_impair is a deterministic bidirectional UDP proxy for pressure
testing real CultNet RUDP sessions with seeded loss, burst, duplicate,
reorder, jitter and stall schedules. It is ported from the Odin donor
(80adfd3) as an example, not library surface. The decision policy (Profile,
Scheduler, seeded RNG) is split from the sockets into policy.rs, which the
proxy and the tests both compile, so a schedule has one owner. The ten
donor profiles live in tests/impairment/.
tests/impairment_policy.rs keeps the donor's six deterministic policy tests
(the burst test now pins the exact drops rather than a count) and adds
profile loading and rejection. tests/media_fec_loss.rs sends protected video
frames through those schedules with no sockets and asserts the guarantee: a
block recovers exactly when at most m of its records were lost, recovered
chunks equal what was sent, and a burst that the send order spreads under m
per block loses no frame. The recovered-frame ratios are printed, not
asserted; tests/impairment/loss-matrix.txt is that output.

The four hard-coded sets become flags, with @file response-file splicing.
A consumer keeps its own .args file instead of committing a patch against
the example. fixture.args carries CultLib own sets; the README documents
the flags. Committed fixture bytes are unchanged.

Adds `service-stateful` (streampixels-service shape, state lineage set,
write_lease_required) with a Rust-issued lease.cc, warming/active/degraded
vectors bound to it, and two wrong leases (other warming digest, other target).
Each vector still passes authenticate + correlate before it is written.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Real enrolled identities, a validated Expected, an Activation issued by
IdunnRuntimeActivationLaunch, bundle files through the CultCache store, and
runtime-presence vectors signed by the Rust signers and run through
authenticate/correlate before they are written. cultnet-ts tests will commit
the output.

Brings Cuts 1-6 of the Aetheria CultCache migration (one home store per
type, fixed routes, atomic commit with compare-exchange, parked SoA) and
CultMath 0.2.0 onto main, which had moved on with the CultNet contract
consolidation. The two lines touch disjoint files.

Cut 5 (Rust). The four mirror loops in put, put_envelope, put_raw_envelope and
delete are deleted, and so is put_prepared_batch's route.len() != 1 branch.
resolve_route_index returns the single home store (the store that claims the
type, else the generic store) and replaces resolve_route_indices.
add_backing_store and add_generic_backing_store return Result and refuse a
second generic store or a type already claimed by another store, attaching
nothing when they refuse. Callers take the Result: the crate's tests, the
cultcache_interop example, cultnet-rs's tests and interop peer example, and
CultMeshNode::create_node in cultmesh-rs.
Tests: second_generic_store_is_rejected, type_claimed_twice_is_rejected;
type_specific_store_routes_before_generic_store stays, now attaching the routed
store before the generic one. No bytes change.
The store-composition contract's runtime table now records Rust, TypeScript
and Python as conforming to one home store per type, and the README routing
section drops its non-conformance note.
Version 0.1.0 -> 0.2.0.

REC-032 commit 1: move the canonical 33 TS + witness-artifact-bundle
schema files (34 total) into runtime-neutral CultLib/contracts/cultnet,
move the interop-note schema (and delete the zero-consumer discovery-*
schemas per D3, tagged parked/cultnet-discovery-contracts) into
contracts/cultnet/interop, and delete the 27 C# and 24 Rust duplicate
copies after confirming byte-for-byte equivalence (only
cultnet.snapshot-request differs: TS carries shardId/shardEpoch, a
known drift already resolved in favor of the TS shape).
Rewrite every $id from https://github.com/GameCult/cultnet-ts/contracts/
and .../cultnet-ts/integration/contracts/ to
https://github.com/GameCult/CultLib/contracts/cultnet/(interop/); give
the two shard-catalog schemas URL ids per D1, replacing the bare
cultnet.shard_catalog_*.v0 identifiers; leave ghostlight.agent-state's
Ghostlight-owned $id untouched per D5.
Repoint every runtime's load path and id literal at the new location:
C# csproj EmbeddedResource + LogicalName, Rust include_str! paths,
TS contracts.ts imports + swarm-contracts manifest/tooling + package.json
files/prepack, and the id/path literals in the C#, Rust, Python and
Kotlin interop tests and peers. Python and Kotlin still build their own
schema JSON in-process (D2); only their base constants, id literals,
and (for Kotlin) contentHash literals were swapped. Every Kotlin
contentHash was recomputed from the final canonical files using the
runtime's own stable-stringify + SHA-256 function; all matched the
planner's precomputed values except cultnet.schema-catalog-response,
where the planner's proposed value did not match recomputation and the
freshly computed value was used instead.
REC-032, decisions D1/D2/D3/D5.

A seventh argument sets max_fragment_bytes on the sender. Without it a
3,392-byte payload leaves loopback as one datagram, and a matrix that
claims to measure fragmentation measures nothing: the impair proxy's
received count equalled the payload count in every cell.

A receiver that survives loss by discarding stranded sets has to say so, or
the drop is invisible and the next diagnosis starts from "delivered less
than sent" again. CultNetTransportStats now carries fragment_sets_evicted,
summed across hub peers like reliable_packets_expired, and the media
delivery probe prints it beside delivered_pct.

`media` was hardcoded Reliable in two places — the profile builder and the
per-channel send options — so no caller could ask for anything else.
Measured on Raven through `cultnet-impair`, 848-byte packets at 12 Mbps, which
is Muninn's real media shape:
profile mode delivered ack bytes
clean unreliable 100.00% 43
clean reliable 69.10% 131,322
loss 1% unreliable 98.95% 43
loss 1% reliable 72.00% 135,837
loss 3% unreliable 96.73% 43
loss 3% reliable 73.30% 138,030
A reliable media channel loses 31% of a clean 12 Mbps offer, and its delivery
barely moves as loss rises, so loss is not the binding constraint — it cannot
carry the rate. An unreliable one holds everything on a clean link and then
degrades by about the loss injected. The reverse channel differs by three orders
of magnitude.
Muninn wanted the unreliable lane and had no way to say so. It signalled the
intent the only way the API allowed, by passing no reliable expiry, and its own
test has asserted Unreliable and failed since it was written. With this change
it passes.
Delivery now comes from the advertised profile, resolved by `channel_delivery`
alongside the `channel_reliable_expire_after_ms` that already worked this way.
That removes the send path's private opinion about reliability, so the profile a
peer was shown and the behaviour it gets cannot disagree. The channels whose
semantics are fixed by design — schema reliable and ordered, realtime unreliable
— are untouched and pinned by a test.
`media_delivery: None` means Reliable, so no existing consumer changes
behaviour. It is still source-breaking for anyone constructing the three options
types with a struct literal rather than `::client(...)`: two sites in
cultmesh-rs, four in Muninn, seven across the test suites here, all mechanical.
An earlier draft claimed Muninn was unaffected; the compiler disagreed.
The `examples/media_delivery_probe.rs` added here is what produced the table, so
the claim can be re-run rather than believed. Note its sender-side wire-cost
figure is unsound for the reliable case: the sender stops draining after five
seconds while retransmission is still in flight, so those byte counts
under-report. The delivery percentages are receiver-measured and stand.

The dual-proved runtime presence contract existed only in cultnet-rs, so no
TypeScript service could make a statement Odin admits as presence. Odin files
anything else away as an ordinary document and never produces a topology
correlation for it, which is why Heimdall could warm forever without being
promoted.
The port is what it should be: the same fields at the same key slots. The Rust
derive serialises a positional tuple indexed by those slots, so the TypeScript
side names the slots and fills the same 24. Both proofs cover one payload --
the complete record with both signature fields empty -- and the two signing
messages use the domain separation their respective identities already define.
Conformance is against vectors emitted by cultnet-rs, not a fixture written
for both sides at once, which would agree with itself and prove nothing:
`cargo run --example runtime_presence_vector -p cultnet-rs` regenerates them.

Two capabilities existed only in Odin's vendored forks, which is why the forks
could not be deleted. Both are ported here with tests so Odin can consume
CultLib instead.
cultnet-rs gains reliable send expiry. A reliable packet may now carry a
deadline; past it the packet is dropped instead of retransmitted, and the count
is reported through session and transport stats. Live media tolerates loss but
not lateness -- a frame retransmitted after its moment has passed is worse than
a missing one -- so the media channel takes a 75ms default while state channels
never expire. Handshake packets never expire either: a dropped connect is not a
late frame.
The deadline is fixed when a send is admitted, so time spent waiting in the
backlog spends it exactly as time spent awaiting an acknowledgement does. This
lineage has a queued_reliable backlog that Odin's does not, and a queued packet
promoted after its moment had passed would be as useless as a retransmitted
one. Expiry runs before the window is measured, so an expiring stream is not
refused for a backlog it no longer owns.
cultcache-rs gains compare_exchange_snapshot and a nonblocking
try_compare_exchange_snapshot. CultLib had neither, despite carrying the larger
body -- the two lineages had diverged in both directions. Contention is returned
as data rather than waited on, so the caller keeps retry and scheduling
authority. This is the primitive an admitted-generation CAS needs.
No wire format changes. Expiry is a sender-side policy and compare-exchange is
local storage, so the other four runtimes stay in agreement without matching
these refusals. They are still worth carrying eventually, and the parity ledger
already tracks that this kind of gap does not announce itself.
cultnet-rs: 106 tests. cultcache-rs: 51 tests.
