Reproduces the S1/R2a non-fabricating method: 2 blind cold Opus lenses per
surface (intent + correctness), no cross-feed, every mechanical claim
tool-grounded. Surfaces: create, batch, pipeline, newsletter.
Verdict REWORK — 3 of 4 surfaces, each 1 MAJOR; 0 BLOCKER:
- batch: 3a/3b component scaffold (format-blind) contradicts the format-aware
band gate
- pipeline: Step 2 scaffold (960-1640) cannot satisfy Step 3 total band
(1200-1800)
- newsletter: resumption table omits the contract-gate phase (Step 4.5) ->
breaks deterministic resume between Step 4 and Step 5
- create: ALLOW (1 MINOR, 8-option AskUserQuestion vs documented 2-4 cap)
Two systemic patterns surfaced (main-grounded, not single-reviewer):
- 5-component draft scaffold 960-1640 != 1200-1800 band, in exactly 3 files
(post.md [R2a], batch.md, pipeline.md)
- bare reference paths vs ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/ in batch + pipeline
Independence axis earned its keep: on newsletter the intent-lens asserted the
resumption table complete; the correctness-lens counted the gap; main confirmed
the correctness-lens (a divergence resolved by grounding, not just convergence).
Review finds; changes no code. Fixes are separate operator-gated decisions.
test-runner 138/0 unchanged. Hardening-class artifact.

CLAUDE.md is loaded every turn while working in this repo (measured 4,846
always-loaded tokens — the entire per-repo delta, since the repo has no
.claude/rules or .mcp.json). The bulk was a version-history narrative: the
2026-05-31 re-baseline note plus a single paragraph recounting the full
v2.0.0 → v4.1.0 journey (per-version motivation, gate-by-gate evolution).
That is CHANGELOG material, not an invariant for working on the plugin —
CHANGELOG.md (18 version headings) already owns it.
Trimmed to what is invariant: a terse current-maturity intro (v0.5.3, M0
done, v1.0.0 remainder) pointing to CHANGELOG/docs; the architecture,
hooks, command (29) and agent (19) tables, and content-quality rules. The
verbose per-row prose (newsletter phase-list, agent (vX.Y)/Step-tag
motivation) is compressed to one-liners. Agent name/model/color cells,
all counts, and the version stay byte-exact so the structure lint holds.
Verified with the repo's own gates: scripts/test-runner.sh 138/0 ("All
structural checks passed!" — counts, version-consistency, stat-consistency,
model-consistency, render-chain all green); scripts/check-model-consistency.mjs
OK (19 agents, all surface declarations match frontmatter). CLAUDE.md
127→109 lines, 19,572→10,457 B, 4,846→2,580 tok (−47%). Docs-only — no
version bump, no catalog ref change.

Completes the linkedin-studio in-scope Stage 1 (docs/okf-convergence-brief.md):
- serializeProfile + operations.md seed gain the cheap recommended OKF fields
`title` + `description` (timestamp/resource intentionally omitted — a timestamp
would break the pure/deterministic serializer; resource is N/A internally).
- renderDiffMd leads the transient pending-diff.md with `type: PendingDiff`, so
the brain/ bundle passes okf-check even mid-propose.
Verified: 2 new tests (okf-conform + consolidate-cli); full brain suite 134/134

Cross-plugin second-brain convergence on OKF-compatible form. The brain is the
reference design (most mature of the three); OKF is a thin interop veneer.
Records: three verified premise corrections (mdcode != OKF; OKF has no
document-folder ingest; classify/convert is build-yourself and the sibling
docs never asked for it); the three-consumer landscape (okr built, architect
designed, linkedin-studio richest); the staged plan (shared spec -> measure ->
conditional shared skill); per-repo scope boundaries (each its own go); and the
landed Stage-1 outcome with its premise refinement (bundle=brain/, ingest/
excluded as round-trip-critical tributary).

Cross-plugin OKF convergence, Stage 1 (docs/okf-convergence-brief.md): the
second-brain hub now conforms to OKF-compatible form so a shared retrieval
skill (and a sibling agent) can traverse it.
- serializeProfile leads with a constant `type: Profile` frontmatter block
(round-trip-safe: parseProfile skips it, parse-serialize identity holds).
- operations.md seed -> `type: Operations`; index.md seed -> `okf_version: 0.1`
marker (markdown text; index files carry no frontmatter per OKF); new
brain/journal/index.md (per-level index).
Premise correction: the brain is deliberately YAML-free and ingest/published
has a byte-exact round-trip invariant (SC2) a frontmatter block would break,
so the concept-bundle is scoped to brain/ ONLY; the ingest/ tributary is
excluded and pointed to from the hub. We emit frontmatter, add no parser.
Verified: new tests/okf-conform.test.ts (5/5); full brain suite 132/132 (0
regressions); cross-tool — okr/scripts/okf-check.mjs validates brain/ (exit 0).

CLAUDE.md:3 was stale (it predated the hardening campaign). Corrected to the
tool-verified reality:
- Hardening complete (29/29): every command through the interactive quality-gate
(docs/hardening/log.md: HARDENED/PASS/FIXED) + the S27-S30 reference/terminology/
magnitude scrubs.
- Command testing is effectively that campaign (persona-sim + 4-axis eval + lint),
backed by the script-level suites.
- Independent cold /trekreview adjudication persists for S1 only (4/29); S2-S26 were
gated by the operator-in-the-loop v2 method after the reviewer swarm was dropped
following the S2 fabrication incident -> brief SC-H not met as written.
- GUI is the one workstream not yet begun.

Closes hull #7 ("ingen brief-historikk"). Each morning brief now records the
trend ids it showed into its own YAML frontmatter (surfaced: <id-csv> =
surfacedIds(ranking)) and renders a day-over-day diff against the most recent
prior brief — a "## Nytt siden sist (<prior-date>)" section that leads the
ranked list, plus a " N nye siden sist." marker on the one-line summary the
SessionStart hook surfaces (no hook change).
- brief.ts: BRIEF_SCHEMA_VERSION 1->2 (artifact frontmatter gained surfaced:;
the store's SCHEMA_VERSION stays 4 — no store field). Three PURE helpers
(diffSurfaced / parseSurfacedFrontmatter / selectPriorBriefFile) + the
surfaced: emit + the section + the summary marker. No fs/clock in brief.ts.
- cli.ts: the brief handler discovers the prior dated file (existsSync-guarded
readdirSync -> selectPriorBriefFile, strict < today so a same-day re-run is
byte-identical), parses its surfaced: line, computes the diff, threads it into
renderBrief AND the shared briefSummary(ranking, diff) (one-source: file
frontmatter == --json summary, cli.test one-source invariant). --json gains a
diff:{priorDate,added,carried,dropped} counts object; the console line appends
the delta. Any fs error degrades to the empty-prior (first-brief) path.
TDD two-phase: stubs -> 17 value-RED (no module-not-found) -> GREEN. Trends suite
216 -> 245 (brief +27, cli +2), 0 fail. New unconditional gate Section 16n (6
checks); ASSERT_BASELINE_FLOOR 117 -> 123; TRENDS_TESTS_FLOOR -> 245. Full gate
FAIL=0; hook suite 139/139 + R3c schedule/run-daily green untouched. Behavioural:
real two-day rename-real-write diff + same-day byte-identity confirmed. Counts

The shipped render dates the section header (## 🆕 Nytt siden sist (<prior-date>))

Closes hull #7 ("ingen brief-historikk"): each morning brief records the trend
ids it showed (surfaced: frontmatter, BRIEF_SCHEMA_VERSION 1->2; store schema
stays 4) and renders "Nytt siden sist" against the most recent prior brief.
Pure render-time diff (brief.ts stays store/fs-free; the dir+file reads live at
the cli.ts edge). Zero new source/test files — all EDITs.
Light-Voyage (3 Opus reviewers — scope-guardian MIXED, brief-reviewer
PROCEED_WITH_RISKS, plan-critic REWORK 0.88) folded into brief #9 / plan
Plan-critic. Converged on 2 MAJOR + 4 MINOR, all re-verified against live code:
- MAJOR-1: brief.test.ts:574 assert.equal(BRIEF_SCHEMA_VERSION, 1) is a hard
literal outside the frontmatter set -> Step 3 flips it to 2 with the bump.
- MAJOR-2: cli.ts:350 const summary = briefSummary(ranking) left unthreaded ->
day-2 --json.summary would lose the marker the file carries (breaks the
cli.test.ts:268 one-source invariant); Step 4 threads diff -> briefSummary.
- M1 import type for the BriefDiff interface; M2 SC9 rename-real-write (no
hand-fixture); M3 SC1 cross-partition disjointness wording; M4 empty

R3 slice (b): the rest of hull #3. The morning brief now reads the temporal axis
the R3b seen-log records but the ranking ignored. Two DERIVED signals, computed at
brief time from already-persisted fields (publishedAt/capturedAt -> ageDays,
surfacedCount), never stored:
- first-mover: recent (ageDays <= --first-mover-days, default 2) AND never surfaced
on a prior day -> ranked up, badge "first ute". Future-dated (ageDays<0) excluded.
- saturation: surfaced on >= --saturation-at (default 3) prior days -> ranked down,
badge "mettet (Nx)". Self-surfacing (our seen-log), not market coverage.
- warming (1..at-1) keeps the R3b "sett Nx" badge but only at >=2 (contract intact);
neutral carries no badge.
SB1 derived (no schema bump: SCHEMA_VERSION 4 / BRIEF_SCHEMA_VERSION 1 untouched).
SB2 the R3a relevance composite stays the PRIMARY sort key; the temporal rank is a
new cmp key after pillar-overlap, before effectiveDate -> re-orders only WITHIN a
(composite, overlap) tier. temporalSignal is pure (saturationAt clamped >=1).
Prior-day surfacings exclude today (via lastSurfacedAt), so a same-day re-render is
byte-identical (caught by the R3c run-daily SC7 regression; fixes a latent R3b
prior-day imprecision too). brief CLI gains --first-mover-days / --saturation-at;
schedule untouched (nightly uses defaults).
Wiring: trend-spotter.md (prose), trend-scoring-modes.md (one-line consumer note),
README (## Temporal overlay), gate Section 16m (+6 unconditional -> ASSERT floor
111->117), TRENDS_TESTS_FLOOR 192->216. Counts 29/19/27 unchanged. Zero new files.

Slice (c) of the R3 build-out: a `schedule` CLI verb (print-first launchd
plist / cron-table line) + `run-daily.sh`, a bash-3.2 headless wrapper that
runs the DETERMINISTIC morning brief from a profile-less scheduler env.
Closes hulls #1 (no autonomous trigger) + #6 (no headless entry point).
Operator-confirmed (AskUserQuestion 2026-06-26): C1 deterministic brief-only
(no AI capture — that is slice e, which plugs into the documented pre-brief
seam); C2 print-first installer (the tool emits the artifact + the install
command; `--install` writes only the inert launchd plist file; never runs the
scheduler activation itself).

The lifecycle layer over the trend store: what happens to a trend AFTER first capture.
- re-score on re-capture (last-wins; addTrend duplicate branch, score the one mutable
field; provenance + lifecycle untouched; no false-merge via JSON compare). Reverses
R3a's first-sight D3 — that R3a test reconciled to the new behaviour.
- status new/acted/skipped (effectiveStatus/setStatus + act/skip/reset CLI verbs);
rankForBrief EXCLUDES handled trends (a work queue, not an archive).
- seen-log surfacedCount/lastSurfacedAt (markSurfaced, per-day idempotent); the brief
CLI records surfacing on the store AFTER the pure render, unless --no-mark.
- render: entry id in backticks (copy-paste for act/skip) + · sett Nx prior-day hint.
- schema v3→v4 (additive lossless); the R3a migration block reconciled to the bump,
the new R3b block committed against SCHEMA_VERSION (breaks the reconcile cycle).

R2a builds the item→store bridge RE-R1 deferred: a pure itemToInput mapping
the validated TrendItem envelope to a store input (injecting capturedAt,

Lift the research engine's deterministic core out of agents/trend-spotter.md prose
into pure, tested TypeScript under scripts/trends/, behind a CLI seam the agent calls.
- B1 src/item.ts: TrendItem ingress envelope + normalizeItem/normalizeItems
(required-field validation, topic normalize+dedupe via store's normalizeField,
optional publishedAt ISO-validate). No id (store derives it); no store bridge
(capturedAt injection is R2).
- B2 src/score.ts: per-mode weight consts mirroring the SSOT
(references/trend-scoring-modes.md), composite (weighted sum, [1,10] guard),
band (5-band map + exact SSOT action strings), triage (keep>=threshold, rank desc,
annotate composite+band). Owns ONLY the arithmetic; the five judgment scores stay
model-side.
- CLI normalize/score: JSON payload on STDIN, JSON to stdout (the existing --json
output toggle is untouched); exit 2 on bad invocation, 0 otherwise.
- Wire trend-spotter.md to name 'src/cli.ts score' as the deterministic-step owner
(prose pointer; the agent still supplies the five scores). Domain-general.
- Gate: TRENDS_TESTS_FLOOR 24->62; new unconditional Section 16g (score.ts both-mode
weight-sets + trend-spotter scorer-pointer + non-vacuity self-test);
ASSERT_BASELINE_FLOOR 84->87.

pure core scripts/brain/src/reconcile.ts (parseRecentPosts tracks the WRITER
format state-updater.mjs:116, NOT the date-only pruner; reconcileRecentPosts
matches hook→record.body→graph for the in-graph/in-brain-only/orphaned tiers;
loadRecentPosts reads STATE_FILE via the canonical getStateFile() chain — a new
cross-seam read, the state file lives outside the brain dataRoot). Wired as the
`brain reconcile` CLI subcommand (inline parsePublishedRecord loader, not the
body-less listPublished). Read-only: never writes the state silo.
Tests (verified live): gate 99/0/0 (ASSERT floor 82→84; new Section 16f
self-test + CLI grep) · brain 127/127 (floor 114→127, +13 reconcile) · hook

Plans/Ideas guidance; existence-skip idempotency preserved (no-clobber green).
- strategy-advisor.md: operations.md in Step 0 context-load + a consumption
contract (anchor authoritative, inversion, plans-vs-ideas, graceful absence).
- test-runner.sh Section 16e: 2 unconditional checks (non-vacuity self-test +
wiring grep, sibling-file decoy); ASSERT_BASELINE_FLOOR 80->82; BRAIN floor 113->114.
- architecture.md:80: build-row reconciled (S3d done; S3e = dead content-history
retirement + triple-post reconciliation = the new LAST S3 slice).
Gate 97/0/0; brain 114/114. TDD: RED proven (16e Check B + the scaffold
dated-anchor test both failed pre-fix) before GREEN. Splits the old S3d charter;
the hygiene half is deferred to SB-S3e. Light-Voyage hardened (scope-guardian

Splits the old S3d charter: S3d = ops centre ONLY (operations.md becomes a
read tributary; strategy-advisor honours the dated frozen-past-self anchor
that deprecates older inferences — advisory/reader-side). The hygiene +
triple-post reconciliation half (dead content-history.md retirement +
post-tracking↔published↔analytics) moves to a new SB-S3e (the last S3 slice).
Light-Voyage hardening: scope-guardian ALIGNED (0 creep/gap); brief-reviewer
REVISE (5 FIX folded); plan-critic 3 major + 3 minor folded. Baselines
verified live: gate 95→97, brain 113→114, ASSERT floor 80→82. The RED-bearing
brain-test literal is pinned to the dated-anchor convention (_As of YYYY-MM-DD:_,
verified absent) — NOT 'deprecates older inferences', which already ships in
the seed comment and would make the RED gate vacuous.
Go-before-code gate pending (forks: Option B enrich seed · advisory deprecation
· one reader · doc home).

Hub-side design: the published record now carries the specifics/trends ids
it was built from (additive, omit-empty → byte-backward-compatible), and a
new pure assembler (scripts/brain/src/assemble.ts + `brain assemble`) joins
post↔analytics by normalized title-prefix + date with honest confidence
tiers (high/low/none). Answers the arc's north-star query: which raw
material actually performs? (specific → post → measured analytics).
All four tributaries untouched (analytics READ-only via inlined raw-JSON,
no package import); profile.md grammar untouched (the fact→post link stays
OUT — C-1). The repeatable --specific/--trend ingest flags collect via a
new collectRepeated helper, leaving parseFlags untouched.
TDD: 19 new brain tests (ingest 4 + publish 3 + assemble 8 + cli 4), all
SC1–SC12. brain 113/113, gate 95/0/0, BRAIN_TESTS_FLOOR 94→113,
ASSERT_BASELINE_FLOOR unchanged at 80. Light-Voyage hardened
(brief-review 5 FIX · plan-critic 1 BLOCK+4 MAJOR+4 MINOR · scope-guardian ALIGNED).

Hub-side design: thread specifics/trends ids onto the brain's published
record + a pure analytics resolver (title-prefix + date, confidence tiers).
Tributaries untouched; blast radius bounded to scripts/brain/. Answers the
north-star query "which raw material performs?" (specific -> post -> analytics).
Two hard constraints shaped the slice: profile.md's rigid 6-token grammar
keeps the fact->post link OUT (C-1, breaking SCHEMA_VERSION bump); analytics
has no body/URN so the analytics<->post join is a resolver, not a stored id (C-2).
Light-Voyage: brief-review APPROVE-WITH-FIXES (5 FIX), plan-critic
REVISE -> 1 BLOCK + 4 MAJOR + 4 MINOR folded, scope-guardian ALIGNED.
Awaiting operator go-before-code gate before any TDD.

The engine can now RETIRE a fact via an operator-gated, explicitly-signalled
temporal-update supersede — completing the consolidation motor's one S2 TODO
("no supersede in S2 — that's S3"). A `supersedes` signal on a candidate retires
the stale fact (re-minted to an archival id, status: superseded, REPLACED IN
PLACE, retained as audit) and installs the new winner under the canonical key-id,
so mintEntityId(key) always points at the live fact.
- consolidate.ts: Candidate.supersedes? + ProfileDiff.supersedes (SupersedeOp
carries the full winner fact, so applyDiff stays a pure projector). proposeDiff
value-guarded routing fork (routes only when the target holds a DIFFERENT value —
else a re-sent signal would self-supersede every run) + intra-batch
first-supersede-wins guard. applyDiff replace-in-place + value-matched state-check
(oldId present, active, value===oldValue) → idempotent re-apply + stale-diff safe;
superseded facts never bumped/promoted (supersede wins). Decay excludes superseded.
archivalId seeded with the pre-archival id (collision-free).
- cli.ts: renderDiffMd `## Supersessions (old → new)` (rendered last, only when
present → zero-supersession diffs stay byte-identical); validateCandidates optional
single-line `supersedes`; `--gather` profileFacts filtered to active (superseded
archival facts never re-presented as live context).
- Tests: +12 brain (consolidate 10 + consolidate-cli 2). TDD: RED (6 fail) → GREEN
(94/94). BRAIN_TESTS_FLOOR 82->94; ASSERT_BASELINE_FLOOR unchanged at 80 (no new
test-runner.sh section). Gate 95/0/0.
- Docs: consolidation-loop.md rule table + honest-limit reconciled (the operator
gate is the only classification net); engine docstring updated.
All 13 success criteria deterministically tested (unlike S3a, no behavioural-only
SC). READ-only gate unchanged — brain consolidate --apply --confirm stays the sole
profile.md writer. Scope held: scripts/brain/ only; temporal-update only
(condition-dependent/distractor deferred).

Second sub-slice of SB-S3 (after S3a's reader landed). Adds an operator-gated,
explicitly-signalled supersede op to the consolidation engine: a temporal-update
candidate retires a stale fact (status: superseded, re-minted to an archival id,
replaced in place, retained as audit) and installs the new winner under the
canonical key-id. Bounded to scripts/brain/ — pure, deterministic, fully
unit-testable.
Operator-confirmed scope: temporal-update→supersede ONLY · winner→dynamic
(re-earn) · minimal `supersedes?: string` · retain superseded as audit.
Light-Voyage-hardened:
- brief-reviewer APPROVE-WITH-FIXES — 8 FIX folded (the load-bearing one: id
lifecycle → winner-takes-key-id, retired fact re-minted, so mintEntityId(key)
always points at the live fact).
- plan-critic REVISE → 2 BLOCK + 6 FIX folded: applyDiff must REPLACE-IN-PLACE
(not copy → would dup the canonical key-id); proposeDiff must value-guard the
supersede fork (a re-sent stale signal would self-supersede every run); plus
--gather active-only filter + decay excludes superseded (else retired facts
leak back as live context / spam stale flags).
- scope-guardian ALIGNED (0 creep / 0 gap).
Also reconciles brief-sb-s3a.md's stale DRAFT status (S3a landed 4fa411f).

The second brain now feeds generation: strategy-advisor reads brain/profile.md
as evidence-to-test (anti-sycophancy default, graceful absence on fresh installs).
First end-to-end proof of capture → consolidate → read-back-into-generation.
- agents/strategy-advisor.md: brain/profile.md added to Step 0 Load Context + a
consumption subsection (Static/Dynamic layers, evidence_count/last_seen weighting,
anti-sycophancy counter-pressure, silent degrade when the file is absent).
- scripts/test-runner.sh: new Section 16d (Brain Profile Reader) — 2 UNCONDITIONAL
checks (non-vacuity self-test with legacy-path/lowercase decoy + exact-literal
wiring grep on strategy-advisor.md), ASSERT_BASELINE_FLOOR 78→80, header
enumeration extended. Gate 93→95/0/0; brain floor 82 untouched.
- docs/second-brain/consolidation-loop.md: reconciled the stale "no reader yet"
honest-limit to the true partial state (one reader; broader consumption deferred).
TDD: RED (only the wiring grep failed, exit 1) → GREEN (95/0/0). READ-only — the
brain consolidate --apply --confirm gate stays the sole writer. SC4 (graceful
absence) verified by inspection; SC5 (read-back) deferred to a reloaded session
(honest — agent prompts load at session start). S3a scope held: one reader, no
parser, no id-threading.

Bump BRAIN_TESTS_FLOOR to 82 (SB-S2 adds consolidate(12)+consolidate-cli(7)).
No new test-runner section → ASSERT_BASELINE_FLOOR unchanged at 78 (the hook
SC6 test runs separately via `node --test hooks/scripts/__tests__/*.test.mjs`,
not the structure gate). Add docs/second-brain/consolidation-loop.md (CLI usage,
engine rules, the candidate-file session↔engine contract, operator gate, honest

session-start.mjs (zero-dep, Edit): unconditional brain/+ingest/ scaffold-ensure
(mkdir, runs on the fresh-install path too); a consolidation-due nudge in the
reminders block (counts published records + reads consolidation-state.json last_run
via getDataRoot — same root the CLI --apply writes; no profile.md parse, \n idiom,
null-safe never-nags); a brain-init nudge appended AFTER the if/else so the
fresh-install branch's context reassignment can't clobber it. + readdirSync import.
SC6 hook test (5 cases) via heredoc. Hook suite 131→136/0; no recompile (body-only edit).

Operator-invoked, operator-gated loop:
- --gather reads published bodies directly (parsePublishedRecord, filtered by
published_date > last_run) + current profile, for the session to extract candidates.
- --propose validates candidates (shape + single-line key/value, else non-zero/no-write),
proposeDiff, writes brain/pending-diff.{json,md}; never touches profile.md.
- --apply --diff <json> --confirm is the ONLY path that writes profile.md (refuses
without --confirm), then records brain/consolidation-state.json last_run.
init/ingest/published preserved. 7 subprocess CLI tests (SC5). brain 75→82, tsc clean.

voice-trainer's Gather step now reads ingest/published/ (provenance=published) as
the primary gold source, keeps voice-samples as a human tributary (not reshaped),
forbids learning from provenance=ai-draft, and fences the auto-append trap. New gate
Section 16c (Brain Published-Only Invariant) enforces the wiring with exact-literal
greps (grep -F 'ingest/published' + 'provenance=ai-draft') + a non-vacuity self-test

doc docs/second-brain/ingest-manual-import.md. BRAIN_TESTS_FLOOR 34→63; assertion

Add flag-routing infra (parseFlags) + two subcommands to the brain CLI, keeping
the existing `init` branch intact:
- `ingest --file <path> [--source] [--date]` / `ingest --scan-inbox` → capture
published posts into ingest/published/ (Wrote / Duplicate / Collision report).
- `published list [--json]` → inspect the gold corpus (id · provenance · date · first line).

Idempotent, collision-safe, create-on-demand IO under the brain dataRoot:
- writePublished: identical body → no-op; differing body at same id → disambiguated
<id>-N.md (never clobber, never silently drop a gold record, B2 defence-in-depth).
- ingestText: provenance always published; published_date defaults to captured_at.
- scanInbox: top-level *.md only (skips .DS_Store/dotfiles/non-md), non-destructive,
empty/absent inbox = clean no-op, re-scan re-skips via dedup.
- listPublished: parses each file in try/catch (malformed → skipped count, never
crashes), surfaces provenance so ai-draft leakage is eyeball-visible.
9 temp-dir IO tests. brain 48→57 tests, tsc clean.

model-collapse guard). Brief + plan hardened through light-Voyage:
brief-reviewer (PROCEED_WITH_RISKS), plan-critic (REVISE 63→folded),
scope-guardian (GAP→folded). Key decisions: verbatim-body content hash (no
normalizeContent, avoids silent data loss), one pinned record separator with a
round-trip edge battery, gate-enforced published-only lint, S1/S2 boundary held
(no profile.md mutation in S1). Operator-approved scope; version bump to 0.5.1.

SB-S0 (Foundation) of the second-brain arc: a new TS package scripts/brain/
(structural copy of specifics-bank) establishing the spine later slices hang on.
TDD throughout (failing test first); fold scope = P1+P2 only per operator decision.
- types.ts: one provenance vocab (human|published|ai-draft) + the six-field
ProfileFact record + two-layer ProfileDoc.
- id.ts: slugify + mintEntityId (sha256[:12], kind-namespaced, slug-keyed so the
id is stable across value edits) + normalizeProvenance (throws on unknown). [SC4]
- profile.ts: no-YAML line-grammar parse/serialize (parse∘serialize = identity over
the whole doc; values may contain ]/|/quotes) [SC2] + foldUserProfile: lossless,
idempotent, source-absent-aware fold of config/user-profile.template.md. Pinned
extraction — P1 labeled scalars (group-headers skipped, [placeholder]→empty) + P2
expertise group; stops at "### Research Tooling" so deferred explainer prose can't
leak in as fields. Checkbox-prefs (Goals/Tone/MCPs/Assets) deferred (§8). [SC3]
- dataRoot.ts: inline per-package resolver (repo idiom; no new seam → SC6).
- scaffold.ts/cli.ts: idempotent `brain init` — brain/{index,profile,operations}.md
+ journal/ + ingest/{inbox,published} under the data-dir; compare-then-skip, never
clobbers a user edit. No session-start wiring (SB-S2 owns it). [SC1]
Gate: new BRAIN floor in test-runner.sh (34 tests; trends/specifics/contract floors
unchanged) + anti-erosion floor 74→75. Full gate 90/0/0, tsc --noEmit clean. [SC5/SC6]
No new command/agent/reference → no version bump, no structure-count change.

Light-Voyage process artifacts for the first second-brain slice (SB-S0):
- brief.md — task brief, revised after adversarial brief-review (B1 fold-source
premise, B2 pathguard claim [later verified: STATE was right, reviewer wrong],
M1 floors-as->=, M2 scaffold trigger, M3 grammar contract, M4 runtime-only).
- plan-sb-s0.md — SB-S0 implementation plan, revised after adversarial
plan-review (plan-critic + scope-guardian, both code-verified):
B1 test convention -> real TS idiom (tests/*.test.ts via tsx, .js specifiers);
M2 profile format -> defined line-grammar (repo has no YAML parser, no dep);
M3 data-root -> inline per-package resolver (repo idiom, not a new seam);
M4 fold extraction rule pinned against the actual user-profile template;
+ minors (gate-count rationale, npm-install-before-gate, provenance throws,
stable-slug id, push-confirm).
scope-guardian: zero creep, zero MAJOR gap. plan-critic: B1+3 MAJOR, all folded.
Design phase, no code yet — awaiting operator go to build SB-S0 (TDD).
