855727f8a4 Take a turn's address as its spans in prose order
The Interpreter was citing correctly and the fold was discarding: an
utterance split by narration lost its second half and a turn's second
visible act became an ambiguity gap. Every span cited for a kind now joins
that kind's one statement in prose order; only an overlapping span is an
ambiguity. NarrativeCapture carries the spans, the invocation still carries
one utterance and one display. controller_work.v15.

Runbook row 10 and the interrupted-cell section; plan step 14 landed;
evidence record; map, handoff, and scratch reconciled (schemas v4/v14,
thirteen components, next action is the per-cell interrupted log line).

5885eff5b6 Map step 14: nonverbal display by quote
A visible act becomes Seen { by } knowledge on the co-located, kernel-lowered
from the invocation beside speech, quoted by the Interpreter as the visible
clause alone. Intent stays private. Authority map, cut line, budgets,
verification, and the three operator decisions are in the plan; map,
handoff, and scratch point at it. Not built.

d4d7bc3c07 Give a world its brief: authored once, guidance on every lane
world_create.v3 carries a required brief, trimmed at ingress, stored on the
state and its snapshot, and projected as the guidance of the Projector,
Persona, Interpreter, operational, and grouped lanes and both authoring
prompts. The two narrative stages that rebuild prompts on resume carry it
(controller_work.v13). The smoke titles its world by the seed root label and
hands its brief to the world rather than to each seed session, so a vow can
no longer name a test fixture.

c31f25415a Let the seed author meaning: persona material, commitment statements, presence
Plan step 12. PersonaMaterial is the ontology's thirteenth row, built:
values, voice, memories, and reads keyed by subject, set whole by
set_persona_material, refused for padded text or a doubled read, no-op when
identical, outside every scope digest. A commitment carries a statement of
what is promised, required at authoring; an affordance-made promise states
the action it came through. The Projector context carries material by label,
each promise's statement, and who else stands in the same place; the
Persona's identity is label, voice, and values. Schemas move to consumer.v3.

0a6a7216e3 Record runs 4 to 6 and map the seed authoring meaning as proposed step 12
The membrane traced end to end: the Projector's borrowed voice, the
contentless commitment, the unbuilt PersonaMaterial, and the missing
co-presence are recorded as findings; the harness no longer claims to fail
on silence, which is now the honest baseline. The map and handoff point at
the decision the operator owns.

4f7513bcba Cite Persona prose by quoting it, and make a bad quote a gap rather than a quarantine
The Interpreter's speak and record_gap tools took byte offsets the model
counted itself; on the Claude lane three of eight utterances came through
cut mid-word and one empty span reached invocation as a non-canonical
utterance and quarantined its cell. Both tools now take `source_quote`; the
harness locates the quote in the preserved prose and derives the span. A
quote not in the prose, empty, or padded is a translation gap at capture.
The invariant is unchanged: only words in the prose become speech.

936aa71b8d Continue the conversation on refusal, and give the claude lane its descriptions
The first SDK-backed seeded runs. Run 1 refused both seed sessions: the
sidecar's schema conversion dropped every field description, `due` was an
undescribed integer against a clock the model never saw, and the subject
tool did not say a grant is required. Run 2 seeded six people in one round
and ticked three times.

A refusal used to reopen the session with an empty draft and a prompt that
named sites from a draft the model could no longer see. It now continues
the same conversation: `Refusal { after_round, mismatches }` on both
authoring checkpoints (controller_work.v12), the refusal as the next user
turn, and the draft rebuilt by one DraftFold shared by evaluator and oracle
from the calls after it. The harness takes the connector only when its
address is set, so an all-claude run needs none.

One speakerless event over a place subtree: recipients derived at apply
time by the one reach owner, already-holders untouched, an empty subtree
refused at both layers, confinement through the operation's place, an
affordance slot so a world can author a beacon or a blast. Schemas at
consumer.v2; the operation count aligned to the catalog's pinned count.

The narrative lane re-lowers once on a moved scope with the delta the
subject could perceive; the kernel is the sole detector for that lane;
an author is named only for speech actually heard; a turn is lowered at
most twice by the shape of its binding; SubjectSnapshot carries the
subject's whole components; schemas controller_work.v11 and
persona_turn_receipt.v3. Plan step 9 landed with its undone list.

b7042f16df Record the seed producer and close its Soul follow-ups
Docs describe the seed lane as landed: scale intent at creation, the
phase-free qualification with the Draft refusal in one owner, the owner
port bound to the Draft revision, the Vault reader's containment and
caps, obligations as the source of boundaries, evidence lifetime at
ingress. The session-zero and compiler language leaves the eve-native,
multiplayer, Delvehold, and mvp docs; plan step 8 is landed; the smoke
note's run block targets Kalsa Public at Low Sere. Steward folded the
boundary and cut the stale drift warning.

5599c164f3 Carry the scale directive into every steering surface
Handoff, map hard boundaries and scale checkpoint, and plan invariant 8 now
all state both truths: structural validity never waits on a count, and the
seed's WorldScaleIntent with its cover-budget choke is the operator's design
the elaborators pursue. The handoff carries the dated operator directive so a
future session cannot re-cut it as fixture noise.

4ae1d6181d Restore the scale target as design, not load fixture
The operator's design is detail first, then a ten-percent choke: generate
goal-bearing actors at every level, then budget cells so attention is scarce
and selection is forced. The mvp doc's teardown-era sentence calling the
2,400-subject profile "test data, not a production elaboration target"
contradicted that and is amended. The ontology now carries an authored
WorldScaleIntent with a structurally counted deficit that elaborators pursue
after boundaries, a budgeted connected cover every tick with singleton detail
cells and grouped coarse cells, partitioned views and per-constituent
attribution in groups, and debt rotation. Gestalt as canonical identity,
arena knowledge union, and semantic qualification stay deleted. Plan step six
is nine passes; two proofs added; evidence records the correction.

in map.yaml live_architecture and plan invariant 11. Both now state
scope-digest binding as the adopted rule and name foundation.v0 as still

v2 shape and the live worker witnesses.

34ce8c8a63 Unify elaboration and action under one deterministic verifier
Ontology v2. Affordances become world-authored data over a closed
twenty-nine-operation kernel set: preconditions read the actor's own typed
components, effect slots bound what an invocation may propose, and kernel
entropy selects the outcome band so no model ever decides success. That
deletes the legacy wave-level outcome resolver along with the reconciler.
Proposals bind to the scope digest of the components their verification
reads instead of the whole state digest, so eight elaborator loops and many
subjects stop serializing on one revision. Elaborator tools are a projection
of the operation set and cannot drift from the reducer.

Demotes the multiresolution agency doc to teardown evidence, keeping only
resumable sessions, compact drafts, and the complete mismatch set. Plan step
six now lists eight passes with the affordance pipeline fourth.

9c662bda23 Design the elaboration ontology
Run 115 died on a dangling reference, and the vocabulary is why. Legacy
transition.rs took caller-supplied SubjectRef{kind,id:String}, admitted
entities in two phases, and permitted mutations one at a time in a flat
batch, so a plausible-looking id was indistinguishable from a referent until
reduction. Reconciliation existed to repair that class and exhausted after
four steps. Depth lived in free strings, so the previous attempt to fix
shallowness grew model tribunals instead of structure.

The closed vocabulary: reducer-issued typed ID namespaces, draft-handle
references resolved inside one closed WorldPatch before any ID allocates,
twelve components that each constrain a decision, four derived CausalBoundary
kinds, and one AdmitPatch command shared by seed admission and boundary
elaboration. Twenty component kinds become twelve, eighteen mutation variants
become one primitive, five qualification and verification types become none,
and waves and quotas become derived boundaries.

Demotes the transition algebra doc to teardown evidence and slots the stage
into the implementation plan ahead of the deferred deployment cutover.

c80c323022 Re-anchor contract citations on CultLib 85f7024
Every live CultNet contract citation named `f4ab237`, which is not an ancestor
of CultLib main and survives only on the retiring standalone repo's branch.
They now name CultLib `85f7024`, which is both CultLib's current main head and a
permanent ancestor of it, so the citation survives every future advance --
something a branch SHA in a repo queued for deletion could never do.

Verified rather than assumed. At `85f7024`, packages/cultnet-rs carries
IDUNN_LIFECYCLE_BRAKE_* distinct from IDUNN_DEPLOYMENT_BRAKE_*,
IdunnProcessWriteLeaseRecord, GameCultRuntimeCapability, OdinTopologyDisagreement
with disagreements() and into_undisputed_present separating presence from
readiness, a generation-bound IdunnRuntimeActivationRecord with its own
activation-proof signing purpose, and IdunnExpectedRoute refusing non-rudp://
endpoints for RUDP routes. All six cited contracts hold.

Two of the eight citations were instructions, not descriptions, and a mechanical
swap would have been wrong. map.yaml's next action and the handoff's next gate
both said to advance Odin to CultNet `f4ab237` -- advancing it deeper into the
repo we intend to delete. Both now say to repoint Odin off its vendored CultNet
fork onto CultLib `85f7024`, as Ghostlight did at `d0510ac`.

Evidence records keep their pre-consolidation SHAs. They are dated statements of
what was believed, and the new record is the key for reading them.

This closes the citation half of the cultnet-rs retirement gate. Odin's vendored
CultNet gitlink is now the last reader of that repo.

322cc116b0 Land the Idunn bootstrap rules and retire two superseded revisions
The system map and implementation plan carried uncommitted prose describing
Idunn's independent bootstrap, the Odin-outage freeze rule, and the nine-phase
durable transaction. That content is good and is landed here.

It cited CultNet `e542225` and Odin `d527d72`, which map.yaml and the handoff had
already advanced past to `f4ab237` and `65cf2b2`. A bare SHA bump would have been
wrong: both successors own strictly more. `f4ab237` adds routed RUDP incarnation
admission, and `65cf2b2` already lands the durable three-record transaction and
admitted-generation engine that this prose still described as the remaining cut,
along with the systemd isolation, Ready-provider selection, and protected
activation delivery it called uncommitted. The claims are corrected, not just
renumbered.

map.yaml carried the same superseded pair on its Idunn foundation line while its
contract line named the successors, so the canonical map disagreed with itself.

Evidence records keep their original revisions. That ledger says what was
believed when it was written, and editing it would falsify the history it exists
to preserve.
