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.

Session and transport tests for the rules the change makes: a reconnect on the
same session and a server that accepts a new client are not stranded by what an
ended session owed (Soul F1); a retransmitted Connect after data has flowed does
not reset; a Connect with another sequence is not a repeat whatever it carries;
an Accept counts only when it names the pending Connect, and not after a local
disconnect (F6); reliable data before the Accept is neither delivered nor
acknowledged (F2); the default initial sequences are random; the hub, server
mode and the cultmesh-rs document server admit a restarted client; a receipt
asked of another transport reads Invalidated (F4); a timed-out flush names the
timeout; the hold buffer takes exactly 1024 frames and 64 channels (F5).
Existing tests that handshook with a hand-built Accept now use assume_connected
or a real handshake, and pin distinct sequences for peers that must differ.

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.

The 720-byte shard cap stood in for "an encoded record fits one datagram" and
failed it at legal maximum-width identifiers. The invariant is now checked where
records are produced: protect_video_frame and protect_audio_block take the
producer's provenance, encode each record, and refuse the block when one exceeds
MediaFecPolicy::max_wire_bytes (default 1431, the IPv4/1500 MTU budget; smaller
paths pass less). The fixed cap is deleted; it contradicted a larger budget and
bounded nothing the decoder does not already hold in memory.
Audio block arithmetic lives in one function, audio_slot, used by the protect
path, the wire validator and recovery. The validator refuses a parity record
whose last packet id or pts overflows; recovery uses the same checked function
instead of adding.
Tests pin the policy 256-shard bounds, block identity on block_count and
block_data_start, the k=16 m=4 known answer, and the burst property
(worst always-recovering burst = blocks x smallest m for 1..=399 chunks), and
the wire behaviour of the media channel profile (delivery and expiry). Docs
state the rs-gf256-v1 construction and that audio playout gates on pts.

DomainKey, RequestKey and CutKey were plain strings marked [CultReference];
since e420410f (D11) the cache refuses a reference it cannot walk, and
every cache that registered the geometry catalog threw (7 tests red since
2026-09-22). The wire is unchanged. Geometry gains a reference to
GameCult.Caching.MessagePack for the formatter.

The Phacelle merge (15c6a7e2) added a public CultMath value type without
the Caching support every such type has; three Caching tests went red.

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.

The Phacelle merge added the public CultMath value type CultPhasor without
its Caching adapters, failing the every-public-type tests. Register it the
way CultCellular is: {"cos","sin"} objects in JSON (which also gives the
dictionary-key form) and a [cos, sin] array in MessagePack. The adapters are
Caching code and stay MIT; only CultPhasor.cs itself is MPL-2.0.

The MessagePack source generator cannot resolve CultRecordRef<T> on its own and
emitted a broken formatter reference; MessagePackKnownFormatter on the open
generic did not change that. An explicit MessagePackFormatter per member is the
same formatter the cache resolver uses, so the wire stays a key string.

The MessagePack source generator emitted a broken formatter reference for the
CultRecordRef<T> reference members. Declaring CultRecordRefFormatter<> a known
formatter makes the generated resolver defer to the cache's own.

e420410f (D11) refuses a reference member whose CLR shape the cache cannot
walk; many:false needs CultRecordRef<T>. CultGeometryBuildRequest.DomainKey,
CultGeometrySelectedCutManifest.RequestKey and CultGeometryChunkArtifact.CutKey
were strings marked [CultReference], so registering the geometry catalog threw
and 7 geometry tests failed on main. All three are record keys of another
document, so the members become CultRecordRef<T> (the attribute is dropped, the
type declares the reference). The msgpack formatter writes a CultRecordRef as
its key string, so the wire bytes and the fingerprint inputs are unchanged.

The change kind in the door's wire entry was restated from the log entry by

phacelle(p, side, offset, normalization) -> CultPhasor with exact
gradient and exact pruning, mirrored in HLSL. Soul: no correctness
defect; the MPL-2.0 port now lives in its own MPL-headed files and the

Restart over a retained log resumes above its highest sequence and reads its

Maps the four 2026-09-30 rulings. Cut 2 merges only with Cut F (Soul:
expiring reliable sets pin the bound). Adds Cut D (a failed send to one
peer no longer aborts a document server poll) and C# Cut 2c. Opens
Q-A7, Q-A8, Q-A9; Q-A7 and Q-A9 block Cut F.

MPL-2.0 is file-level and the Phacelle port sat inside MIT files. phacelle and
CultPhasor now live in math.Phacelle.cs and CultPhasor.cs, and cultmath_phacelle
in CultMath.Phacelle.hlsl (included by CultMath.hlsl, both tracked copies), each
with the MPL header and Johansen / Luke Mitchell attribution. math stays one
partial class, so math.phacelle is called exactly as before. The GameCult.Math
package declares MIT AND MPL-2.0 and packs THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.md and the new
include; the Unity LICENSE.md points at CultLib; build-unity-package.ps1
requires the new include.
The random sweeps never met a cell whose box bound sits just under the 2.25 cut
while its weight is still nonzero, so cuts of 2.245, 2.24 and 2.2 survived.
Six hard-coded points (found by an offline search) sit next to such cells; the
C# pruned-vs-unpruned test and the HLSL mirror test both use them, with a
witness check that re-derives the property from the hash.
Docs: the prune keeps about 45 of 64 cells (14 is the nonzero-weight count),
the support radius is 1.49998 (d^2 = 2.24995), normalization's range and
saturation, W = 0 only for adversarial hashes, and the support-edge gradient
seam size.

The reentrant apply test now asserts the nested call completes without
throwing: a re-recorded sequence used to be swallowed by the subscriber's
handler and hide a non-replacing in-memory log. The store-writes-cache probe
writes once, so a cache that let the journal re-enter it fails the test instead
of recursing until the host crashes.

A frame held behind a gap survives a timeout and is released when the gap
fills, and a retransmit of a frame received before the end is still a
duplicate, in all four runtimes. Cut 1b drops what the session owes; what it
received from the peer is the peer's retransmit protection.

The lost write in every ending test now leaves part of a fragmented write
queued. A flush that starts after a reconnect, or after a server-mode
transport accepts a new Connect, must succeed. The three stray-packet tests
that read the peer's pending set after a Disconnect encoded the old rule
(the peer's owed write survives the goodbye); they now assert on the
goodbye's ack field and mask, which is where the refused frame must not be
acknowledged.

A gap now holds three ordered frames so a watermark that advances one step
per call fails; the reset test follows a second handshake at a different
sequence so a watermark that survives the reset fails; Rust gains the
4 MiB hold bound in bytes.

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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every ending path (peer Disconnect, local disconnect, timeout, refusal or
reset) must drop the writes it owed, so that a later session neither
retransmits nor delivers them; Rust adds the receipt after a local
disconnect and a reconnect. A flush that starts after an ending, or that
started before one and sees a Connect begin a new session, must fail. The
C# and Python flush tests use a second thread for the mid-wait 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).
