One grammar, four call sites. `read_block_mappings` moves out of
`consume.read_sources` -- where it was written and measured -- into
`profiles`, the module both the flat readers and `consume` already import,
and the three copies of the line-oriented frontmatter grammar now decode a
block sequence for the keys `STRUCTURED_BLOCK_KEYS` names. Two copies of a
block grammar would be two answers to one question.
The value TYPE was the real choice and it was measured, not argued.
`parse_frontmatter` is public API (`okf.parse_frontmatter`) returning
`dict[str, str]`, and a list of mappings is not a `str`. Widening the return
type to `str | list[dict[str, str]]` costs 15 `mypy --strict` errors across
four of the five modules that touch the reader, plus a signature every
caller outside this repository would have to follow. Rendering the entries
back into the flow form those same readers already round-trip costs 0. The
rendering is a READING projection and says so: it is not a claim that the
value is writable -- `yaml_flow_plain` still refuses a `?` and the guard
still refuses a quote inside a flow mapping, which is why the producer
writes block in the first place.
`STRUCTURED_BLOCK_KEYS` is one key wide. `sources` is the key `read_sources`
already knows how to read; a fixture in this tree carries a block
`verified:` that still reads as an empty value, and a test pins that state
so the next widening is a decision rather than a side effect.
Nothing nested reaches the document's namespace: the entries land inside
their own value, and the K3-20 substitution guarantee is asserted per reader
copy.
Three tests that pinned the old behaviour are rewritten to what is now true,
none weakened on its other half: the block round trip in
`test_multi_source_provenance` (the evidence behind `_render_sources`'
reason 1), the v0.2 characterization (whose key-space assertion is the half
that must never weaken), and K3-22's shipped-file known-positive, where the
one difference is counted and pinned at 1.
Suite 1807 passed / 1 skipped, rc 0, 94 s -- 1782/1 before plus 25 new.
ruff clean, `mypy --strict` clean over 21 files, `uv.lock` untouched.

`uv sync --frozen` resolved ruff 0.15.22 and the tree read clean. A loose
install resolves 0.16.6, under which the SAME untouched code reports 148
findings -- 4 more than round 9 counted, because this round added four files.
All of them are new rules rather than new defects: 0.16 widened the default
rule set to whole families (YTT, ASYNC, PL, ISC, C4, UP, B, SIM, FURB, ...).
(`[skip-docs]` is for CLAUDE.md, which a lint-configuration change does not
reach. README's developer section IS updated in this commit.)
THE DEFECT IS NOT THE 148, IT IS THAT NOBODY CHOSE THEM. `[tool.ruff]` set only
`line-length` and `target-version`, so the acceptance was ruff's default, and
the tree stayed green only as long as the lockfile froze an old ruff. `select`
is now written down: `E4`, `E7`, `E9`, `F` (the historical default), `I`
because this tree already keeps imports sorted, and `RUF100` so a `noqa` that
has stopped meaning anything is caught rather than left as decoration. Pin
`ruff>=0.9` -> `ruff>=0.16.6,<0.17`.
Per rule, before -> after: RUF100 50 -> 0, I001 20 -> 0, ISC004 19, PLW1510 8,
C408 8, EXE001 6, RUF007 5, PLE2515 4, UP031 3, B017 3, and fourteen more with
2 or fewer -- the families out of the declared set are 0 by selection, and 148
is the number to start from if they are adopted, which is a separate decision
and not one to take inside a version-pin commit. 57 were auto-fixed; one E402
was reintroduced by the import-sorting fix merging a block away from its
`noqa`, and got the directive back rather than a bare one.
`S` IS MEASURED OUT, NOT ASSUMED OUT: it reports 2657 `S101` on a suite whose
every assertion is an `assert`, and `S603` flags 19 subprocess calls of which
one was ever marked -- selecting it buys 18 suppressions and no defect. Two
`noqa` directives naming non-selected rules were dropped with that reason
recorded in the configuration instead.
THE TWO FILES 0.16 WOULD REFORMAT ARE MARKDOWN, NOT PYTHON: `README.md` and
`docs/2026-09-08-blindsone-below-k-k2.md`. 0.16 formats fenced Python inside
markdown, and both blocks are RECORDS -- the second is a quotation of
`COST_VOCABULARY` as it stood when that measurement was taken. Reformatting a
quotation makes it stop being one, so markdown is excluded from the formatter
and `ruff format --check .` stays in the acceptance over `.py`.
`tools/okf_consume_measure.py` is fenced by the order as run-not-edited, so its
three findings are exempted by path with the reason and the debt named, and its
bytes are untouched.
THE LOCKFILE TRAP IS CLOSED, NOT AVOIDED. `uv.lock` predated the `[ocr]` extra,
so any unlocked resolve wrote that extra's transitive tree back into it -- 681
insertions over 4 deletions, twice now, and round 9 recorded the cause as
`uv run` OUTSIDE the project when it is `uv run` without `--frozen` INSIDE it.
The relock is complete for every declared extra (703 insertions, 26 deletions),
and measured after it, an unfrozen `uv run` leaves the file alone.
`ruff check src tests tools`, `ruff format --check .` (0.16.6), `mypy src` over
21 files and 1535 tests, all green.

The line-oriented frontmatter grammar exists in three copies, each with the
duplication documented at its site: `materialize` reads a path, `structure`
needs a character offset, `profiles` returns body lines. All three keyed on
`key.strip()`, which discards the indentation that is the only thing telling
a nested key from a top-level one. An indented `title:` under a `sources:`
block therefore landed in the same flat namespace as the document's own
`title:` and, arriving later, won.
The failure is substitution, not omission. A dropped value is visible to
whoever reads the concept; a substituted one is not -- the document carries a
title that looks entirely right and belongs to something else. Because
`number` derives from `title` and `parent` derives from `number`, one
substitution walks the hierarchy. Measured, not inferred: a document titled
`N100.2` with a nested source titled `N200.7` came back as N200.7 with parent
N200 instead of N100.2 with parent N100.
Measured incidence across the two corpora, denominators stated:
`_okf-canonical` @ ad30107, 54 documents with parsable frontmatter, 49 carry
a nested key colliding with a top-level name (90.7%); `_okf-upstream` @
9a15b13, 66 documents, 58 collide (87.9%). The colliding key is `title`, and
often `resource` with it -- in `acme_retail/tables/orders.md` the concept's
own BigQuery resource pointer was replaced by a nested one. This is a fix
that clears observed damage, not a hardening without a witness.
The fix refuses indented lines; it does not read them. Block form stays
unreadable -- `sources` and `verified` still come back empty -- so D4's
flow-form emission rule is untouched and the structured reader is still D1b.
Two characterization tests that pinned the old behaviour now pin the new: the
block-list family still DROPS its value, and only the key-space pollution is
gone. That family is not otherwise addressed here.
Test first, red before the code was touched, with known-positive controls for
all three parsers so that a parser returning nothing could not pass.

Commons ratified V1 2026-08-02 and executed it at `54e0ec7`; verified
against their tree rather than taken on report. ingest-spec.md:217 now
defines `generated` as `{ by: process:okf-ingest, at: <ingested_at> }`,
unquoted, `at` repeating `ingested_at` verbatim. `generated: true` no
longer appears in the spec.
`DEFAULT` states commons' §5 layer, so its stamp is theirs to decide.
`DEFAULT.ownership` gains the actor; the four goldens this repo's plan
named in advance were regenerated by RUNNING the materializer, each on
its own case's `ingested-at.txt`. The v0.2 golden was untouched, as
predicted -- it has carried the O2 form since D5.
Not a migration onto OKF v0.2: `DEFAULT` stays v0.1 on every axis
upstream owns and still emits no `sources`. Commons' spec and the Google
version are independent axes, and comments that narrated them as one
were rewritten rather than left to mislead. README and CLAUDE.md said
the additive rule without that boundary, which would have told a
consumer their DEFAULT bytes can never move; both now state it.
V-A3 is amended, not dropped. `DEFAULT` must OWN the mapping it now
writes -- a profile refusing its own output fires the collision gate on
files its own previous run wrote -- while a mapping naming a foreign
actor, or §7's `human:` actor on curated content, stays unowned. That
half is what carried the safety and it is asserted directly.
§11's stamp-integrity condition moved with the value: the forgeable
stamp was `true` and is now the mapping naming the ingest actor. The
defence was never the value -- the §3 scan globs `ingest-*.md`, so a
Door C import is unreachable however well it forges. Second spoof test
added; both were hand-mutated (glob widened to `*.md`) to confirm they
can fail.
The characterization test derived its foreign-stamp fixture from the
literal `generated: true`, which V1 leaves without a referent -- a
silent no-op waiting to happen. It now derives the needle from the
profile and asserts the substitution occurred.
Door B is deliberately untouched: not the ingest-spec's, marker is
`generated` + `source_file`, disjoint from Door A's `ingest_manifest`,
and the divergence predates V1.
Nothing released or notified. The pilot set pins `v0.5.0a2`, not `main`,
so this is invisible to portfolio-optimiser's freeze and demo; the
consumer exposure report is owed at the release that carries this.

The gate refuses a schema that names both `timestamp` and `generated`,
because OKF §13.1 grants the legacy fallback only while `generated` is
ABSENT. `__post_init__` built the named set from `order | required |
allowed` and left `nullable` out, so
FrontmatterSchema(order=("timestamp", "title"),
nullable=frozenset({"generated"}))
constructed, and `violations()` on a document carrying both returned ().
The namespace is open by default, so a key named only by `nullable` is
admitted exactly as surely as an emitted one — the omission was a hole in
the gate, not a narrower gate.
Found by the proving consumer the same day the gate was written; their
construction is the red test case.

Plan step 3's remaining half, and the one place steps 1-3 add behavior rather
than only characterizing it. Operator decision this session: build the gate NOW
rather than at D2, so the multi-file D2 work is developed with the invariant
already in place.
OKF section 13.1 reads `timestamp` as a legacy stand-in for `generated.at`
only while `generated` is ABSENT. A schema able to name both can therefore
describe a document with neither a valid `generated.at` nor an eligible
fallback. Refused at construction, the same shape as the reserved `verdict`
layer -- and one level below the sketch that was approved, on
`FrontmatterSchema` rather than `BundleProfile`: the schema is the policy that
names frontmatter keys, it is the exact C3 analog, and a profile must build its
schema first, so the stricter placement subsumes the other.
Stated as key names rather than as a judgement on values, deliberately: every
`generated` a schema can express today is a scalar (`_is_legal_value`) and so
malformed as a v0.2 mapping, which makes naming both exactly the hazard. It
narrows when a value model can express a well-formed `generated` -- recorded at
the constant rather than left for a reader to reconstruct.
Behavior-neutral for everything shipped, and not by assertion: DEFAULT emits
`generated` and no `timestamp`, STRICT_V1 the reverse (which is what puts the
wiki on the legacy path rather than in a defect), and the byte-exact golden
suite is green.

Plan steps 1-3: characterization only, no production code, so the one part of
the v0.2 work we called risky -- `_is_ingest_owned`, the pre-mutation collision
gate -- is pinned before it moves.
Step 1. An inline flow mapping round-trips through the scalar
`parse_frontmatter` verbatim (V-A2); a block list does not, and the measured
key-space pollution (`- id`, `resource` arriving as frontmatter keys) is what
requirement 1 chose the flow form over. A v0.2 `generated` mapping never makes
a file ingest-owned (V-A3), with the v0.1 `generated: true` control alongside
so the refusal is attributable to `generated` and not to an unreadable
manifest reference -- and end to end, such a file is refused with
`collision_unstamped` rather than overwritten. Today's fail-safe becomes a
documented guarantee.
Step 2. Door C against the five OKF section 14 consumer MUST NOTs plus the
section 5.2 bare-`verified` mapping. Its tolerance is structural rather than
lenient: the door writes the guard's bytes verbatim and never parses the
sender's frontmatter, so a D1b reader that starts judging shape at this door
breaks these cases -- which is when we want to hear about it.
Step 3. No profile hard-codes an upstream version (V4/V-A5), walked
recursively through dataclasses and collections and falsified against a
planted literal; the key name is what a profile pins, and the root-frontmatter
policy accepts any value. The `okf_version` value is catalog's (E1), so a
constant here would be both a decision we do not own and the thing that would
have to be chased on every upstream release.
