Krav 3, and the operator chose the run path explicitly: the external service must
be reachable WHILE the run works, not only when documents are ingested. Until now
the run path had one in-process tool against a local folder — and on the bundle
path the agents had no tools at all.
MAF already ships the client (MCPStdioTool / MCPStreamableHTTPTool, verified in
the pinned 1.9.0 with allowed_tools and request_timeout), so `mcp_tools.py` owns
only what MAF cannot decide for us: which servers a run may contact, which of
their tools it may call, how long it waits, and where the credential comes from.
This is a DIFFERENT seam from ingest_mcp.py on purpose — that one pulls source
documents before a run and speaks to null-argument tools. Same protocol, different
job.
Every refusal is a live hazard, not tidiness. An empty allowlist would let the far
end decide what the agents may call, so naming the tools is mandatory. A
non-positive timeout is an unbounded wait against a third party. An unknown field
is refused rather than ignored, which is also what keeps a literal secret from
being parked in the config — there is no field for one, only the NAME of an env
var. A named-but-unset credential refuses instead of calling anonymously, because
an anonymous call can succeed with the wrong scope.
Egress is declared, always. Every server and permitted tool is named in the run
announcement before the first call — including when no --mandate is given, which
was a real hole: the announcement only printed with a commission, so configuring
servers without one would have contacted third parties with nothing printed at
all. --live-dry-run still opens nothing, because the tools are entered after the
dry-run cut: the promise to stop before the first call now covers egress too.
Threaded through BOTH modes. A flag accepted in one mode and silently dropped in
the other is the defect class this CLI refuses by name.
Load-bearing MEASURED against the whole 744-test suite, four mutations all red:
build the tools but never hand them to the agents (2) · never enter the
AsyncExitStack, so they are constructed and useless (1) · never declare the egress
(2) · drop the allowlist on the built client (1).
Two live docs claimed MCP was unwired in the run path; both corrected rather than
left to rot.

Krav 2: a run must be clear about what it shall do and achieve. `--mandate`
makes both ends explicit. BEFORE the first (paid) model call the run prints what
it was commissioned to do — objective, every named approach, whether its own
proposals are allowed, the scope, the caps, and which external services it will
contact. AFTER the run it settles: one row per approach, validated with the
figure, rejected with the validator's reason, or not evaluated with why.
The announcement is placed with the other refusals and above the scripted
banner, for the reason the required-args guard was hoisted there: a refused run
must not first print a banner about work it never did. `--live-dry-run`
announces without contacting anything, so a commission can be inspected before
it costs money.
`settle` renders the goal verdict it is GIVEN and never decides it. `ledger.to_ore`
is the framework's one NOK->øre conversion and the goal comparison already runs on
quantised integers, but `mandate.py` cannot import it without dragging `verdicts`
— and therefore agent_framework — into a deliberately framework-neutral module,
while a private copy of a money conversion is exactly the (p) defect. So the
caller decides and this renders; a goal figure without a decided verdict makes no
claim at all.
The caps the announcement prints come from named constants shared with
`run_project`/`run_portfolio`'s defaults — a second copy could drift and make the
announcement describe a run that never happened.
Load-bearing MEASURED against the whole 717-test suite, four mutations all red:
detach the announcement (4) · detach the settlement print (2) · make the CLI
loader tolerant (2) · announce the commission but never hand it to the run (2).
The last one is the one that matters: without it, a run could print a commission
it had no intention of executing.
DEVIATION from the approved plan, stated rather than quietly dropped: --goals is
still refused outside portfolio mode. Accepting it in single-project mode would
have admitted a flag whose documented function (the goal-stop against the ledger)
still does nothing there — the same accepted-but-inert defect --embedder-config
was just fixed for. The mandate's success_criteria carries "what shall this run
achieve" in the expert's own words instead; the numeric target stays portfolio-level.

Carrying an approach into the prompt only half-answers krav 1. The expert asked
for their approaches to be CONCRETELY EVALUATED, which means each must reach a
verdict and each verdict must be visible. `run_project(mandate=...)` evaluates
every commissioned approach in turn — the run's own proposal last, when allowed —
each under the SAME meter. No new loop: the caps already in force are the bound.
`RunResult.coverage` is the settlement, one row per approach: validated (with the
figure), rejected (with the validator's reason verbatim), or not_evaluated (with
why). `not_evaluated` is the row that earns the type its keep — an approach the
run never reached must be reported as unreached, because an omitted row is
indistinguishable from an approach nobody ordered. That silence is the defect
class krav 1 is asking us to remove.
Budget exhaustion mid-list is reported, not swallowed. But if the FIRST approach
exhausts it there is nothing honest to return, so BudgetExceeded propagates
exactly as before — a run that produced nothing must still fail loudly.
RunResult stays single-outcome (portfolio aggregation, outbox artefacts and HITL
keying all rest on that). The choice is deterministic: highest validated saving,
ties by mandate order — never whichever ran last.
Load-bearing MEASURED against the whole 702-test suite. FIVE mutations red:
evaluate only the first approach (5 red) · drop the rejected rows (3) · ignore
allow_own_proposals (1) · select produced[-1] (1) · select produced[0] (1).
The sixth measurement is why this commit exists in this shape: the ordering
mutation FIRST STAYED GREEN. The test had placed the bigger approach last, where
"highest saving" and "whichever ran last" give the same answer, so an
order-dependent implementation passed it. A scenario that cannot separate two
implementations proves nothing about either — the test now pins BOTH orderings,
and each mutation direction fails one of them.

Walked from a fresh clone: `--embedder-config` was accepted in every mode
without `--semantic-retrieval` and then had no effect whatsoever. MEASURED,
not inferred — an injected embedder is consulted ZERO times with the flag
off and once with it on, because the only consumer is the HybridRanker that
flag builds; the default StructuralRetriever takes no embedder at all.
That is the silent-ignore this CLI's flag contract exists to prevent, and
the same ground on which `--semantic-retrieval` itself is already refused
when it cannot take effect.
REFUSED, not wired — the opposite call from `--scripted-replies` in
portfolio mode, and for a stated reason: there the seam already existed, so
refusing would have left a whole mode without an offline door. Here there
is nothing to wire to.
Mode-independent (both modes gate the embedder on the same flag) and placed
ABOVE the scripted door, mirroring the required-args hoist: a refused run
must not first print a banner claiming a scripted loop closed.
Five mutations against the WHOLE suite, all red, each isolating one seam:
detach the refusal (3 red) · scope it to single-project mode (portfolio arm
red) · move it below the banner (banner arm red, rc intact) · build the
ranker unconditionally (the zero-consultation measurement red) · ignore the
injected embedder (its control red).
663 -> 668 tests.

An independent reviewer found it and the claim was verified by measurement
before being accepted, not taken on trust.
test_portfolio_scripted_pass_makes_no_real_client raised from the patched
_default_factory to prove the scripted portfolio pass never builds a production
client. It cannot: the factory is called inside run_project's coroutine, and
run_portfolio gathers with return_exceptions=True, so the AssertionError was
collected into a RunFailure and never escaped. Measured directly -- with BOTH
the client_factory wiring and the rc rule detached, the blade stayed GREEN. It
was going red on rc alone, which means it was testing defect B while claiming
to test defect A. The original seven-mutation sweep did not catch this because
each mutation was applied singly, and dropping the wiring alone still flips rc.
Replaced with a call sentinel: a list appended inside the factory and asserted
in the test body, which the wave handler cannot swallow. Re-measured -- red on
the wiring detach alone, and red on both detaches together.
The docstring now also states what the sweep could not: blades 1 and 8 are
environment-conditional. The local profile points at loopback, so on a machine
running a local model server the wiring detach would make real calls and could
complete the pass. Their red was real on the machine it was measured on and is
not portable; blade 2's is.
Separately, the budget-stop print is marked as defensive and currently
unreachable from main(), because main() never constructs a PortfolioMeter and
every write to budget_stop is gated on one -- the strict=True precedent
directly above says untested future-proofing must be labelled as such. The
README claim that a portfolio pass reports a cap stop is corrected to say the
cap has no CLI flag yet. Noted for whoever wires that door: BudgetRefused is a
RuntimeError and the existing except clause would not catch it.

The operator is not a domain expert, so the domain content is mine to own --
and the one thing the loop asks a human for is exactly the thing no example
existed for. docs/ekspert-svar.md is written for whoever has to deliver the
verdict: the two forms a judgement can take (a --rationale string during the
run, a JSON file in the inbox for later runs), where each field comes from, and
four complete paste-ready answers.
Every command and every verdict in it was RUN from a fresh clone before it was
written. The `hitl pending` line quoted is verbatim output. The rejection
answers close the gap STATE has carried since the demo shipped: the README
shows the VALIDATOR refusing a number, but nothing showed an EXPERT refusing a
proposal whose numbers are fine -- the only judgement in the whole loop that a
machine cannot make. Two rejection shapes are given, because "not feasible
here" and "right measure, wrong cost base" teach the system different things.
Everything is marked AI-authored and not verified professional judgement.
Also corrects the --outbox-dir help text, which claimed sharing a folder with
--verdict-dir "re-ingests raw agent output past the Step-8 promotion gate".
Measured, by pointing both at one folder and running twice: it does not. The
outbox artefacts are named {run_id}-*.json and carry none of the verdict keys,
so the tolerant inbox loader skips them and the run is unaffected. The hazard is
real but latent -- a future verdict-shaped artefact in the outbox -- so the
warning stays and says what is actually true. This also answers STATE's open
question about enforcing the distinction in the CLI: no. There is no reachable
contamination to refuse, and a guard for an unreachable case is the kind of
error handling this repo declines to write.

Walking --portfolio end-to-end as a downloader would -- which no session had
done -- surfaced two defects of a class this repo already legislates against.
(A) --scripted-replies was silently DROPPED in portfolio mode. main()'s
portfolio dispatch returned before the block that builds the scripted client
factory, and the flag was absent from the single_only refusal set: neither
honoured nor refused. Measured against the shipped reference portfolio: no
banner, four real model calls attempted, four APIConnectionError. The previous
session joined this flag to the --report allowlist and missed the portfolio
partition. Resolved by WIRING rather than refusing -- run_portfolio already
exposes the same client_factory seam, and refusing would have left portfolio
mode with no offline door at all for an adopter without a model budget. The
scripted block is hoisted above the dispatch; the single-project required-arg
and semantic-retrieval refusals are hoisted with it so an incomplete argv is
still refused BEFORE the honesty banner could claim a scripted run happened,
and the refusal order within single-project mode is unchanged.
(B) A portfolio pass reported one of its four outcome channels. failures
(S3.3 collect-and-continue) and budget_stop (S3.4 global cap) never reached the
operator and rc was unconditionally 0, so the four-failure pass above printed
NOTHING and exited 0 -- silence read as success. BudgetStop is a separate field
precisely so exhaustion can be told from success; the CLI showed neither.
Failures now print to stderr with project id, error type and message; the
budget stop prints its four numbers; rc is 1 iff something raised. A budget
stop alone stays rc 0: exhaustion is a structured stop the operator asked for
by setting a cap, not a crash. Completed runs still print, so the non-zero rc
does not undo collect-and-continue.
Load-bearing MEASURED against the whole 662-test suite, seven mutations all
red, including both controls: detach the client_factory wiring - make the
banner a single-project courtesy again - detach the failure print - revert rc
to 0 - detach the budget-stop print - print the failure line unconditionally
(control) - print the budget-stop line unconditionally (control).

An adopter without an API budget had two half-doors and no whole one.
`--live-dry-run` takes their own bundle but stops before the first model call
(`run_project` returns a DryRunReport), while `portfolio_optimiser.simulation`
runs the complete loop but only over ITS bundle with ITS scripted answers.
The seam for the missing third case -- the whole loop over your OWN data,
offline -- already existed as `run_project(client_factory=...)` and had zero
CLI exposure. This is the door onto that one seam, not a second implementation
of it (`scripted_factory` is imported lazily; `simulation` imports `run`, so a
module-level import would be circular).
The honesty banner is part of the feature, not decoration (maalbilde §1): a
scripted run that reads like a model run is worse than having no offline mode,
so every scripted invocation prints what is real (context navigation, debate
plumbing, deterministic validator, verdict) and what is not (the answers).
The two offline modes are mutually exclusive rather than one silently winning,
`--report` mode refuses the new flag by allowlist, and a replies file that
cannot serve the run is refused at the door rather than surfacing as a KeyError
mid-run.
Load-bearing MEASURED against the whole suite (645 -> 652), six mutations all
red: detach the wiring · detach the banner · detach the dry-run exclusivity ·
drop the flag from the --report allowlist · make the loader tolerant · control
(print the banner unconditionally).
The --report blade was measured GREEN first: with a non-existent ledger path
the load failure refused before the gate and masked it entirely. Rewritten
against a valid saved ledger, so rc 1 can only come from mode-exclusivity.

Two quantization orders existed and met at exactly one comparison.
SavingsLedger quantizes every realized candidate to integer øre and sums the
ints; run.py's goal baselines summed Project.total_cost FLOATS across items and
projects and quantized the total once. _goal_limit_if_reached compared the
former against a threshold derived from the latter — so whether a portfolio pass
stops early was decided by two differently-computed sides.
Measured divergence: three 60000.005 NOK lines are 18000003 øre quantized first
but 18000001 summed first (the float sum drifts to 180000.01499999998).
Decision: quantize per cost line, then sum integers. Each CostItem IS a money
amount — S4.0 made per-line quantity/unit_cost the validator's ground truth — and
integer addition is associative, keeping totals order-independent under the D-D
wave model, which the float fold is not.
ledger.to_ore is now the framework's one NOK->øre conversion; run.py imports it
rather than keeping a private copy (the S4.0 REPLIES precedent).
Measuring the mutations found two further gaps, both now closed: the per-project
baseline is a SECOND call site whose mutation survived the whole suite, and
realize bypassing to_ore with a raw float*100 was caught by nothing.
Load-bearing MEASURED (tests/test_money_quantization_loadbearing.py), five
mutations all red: detach the portfolio baseline · detach the per-project
baseline · reintroduce a private copy in run.py · change the rounding mode · let
realize bypass to_ore. 615 -> 621 tests.
Honesty boundary: sum_claimed_saving_nok (run.py:_aggregate) is deliberately
untouched — a float NOK reporting field that is never quantized and never
compared against the ledger, hence outside the ordering defect.

Every stage of validate_proposal reasoned only about numbers the proposal itself
supplied, so an internally-consistent hallucination cleared the whole gate (F3).
A new stage 0 reconciles each affected_item against the project's CostBaseline
before the CBC solve: an unknown cost code is rejected, and a real code carrying
a quantity/unit_cost outside the configured tolerance (5% default, relative to
the baseline value) is rejected. Validation, never repair.
The baseline argument is OPTIONAL (None = pre-S4.0 behaviour), but both run
paths set it: the road path projects project.cost_items, the bundle path loads
cost-baseline.json when the bundle ships one. Bundles written before the
amendment stay un-anchored, so the commons-owned goldens run byte-identically;
a baseline that exists but is malformed still raises on both loaders.
F8: the method-specific cap now comes from the METHOD_CAPS registry (measure
type -> fraction, injectable) instead of an energy_efficiency string comparison.
The baseline format and tolerance semantics were decided locally — the commons
amendment (D-A pt. 2) never arrived, exactly as in S3.2. D7 mirroring stays open.
Three portfolio fixtures quoted cost codes belonging to OTHER projects; the new
gate caught them. They now quote each project's own lines, and the two copied
REPLIES tables import the single source instead of drifting from it.
Load-bearing measured (tests/test_s40_cost_baseline_loadbearing.py), six
mutations all red: detach the reconciliation stage; detach the magnitude
tolerance; detach the road wiring; detach the bundle wiring; ignore the injected
cap registry; make the optional loader tolerant of malformed content. Control:
with the road wiring detached the repaired portfolio fixtures still pass, so
they are not masking the seam. 597 -> 612 tests.

Three items on one seam — what a FAILED project does to the wave loop — plus the
snapshot copy they sit next to.
(v) The catch is BaseException, not Exception, and that width was ungated. The
existing collect-and-continue test raises RuntimeError, so it stays green when
the handler is narrowed: measured, the whole of test_portfolio_concurrent_
loadbearing.py (13 tests) passes under the narrowing. asyncio.CancelledError is
the one realistic vector that separates the two — probed first, gather(
return_exceptions=True) COLLECTS it, while KeyboardInterrupt propagates
regardless and could never be helped by a wider catch. Narrowed, a cancelled
member is cast into runs as a fake RunResult and the pass dies in _aggregate,
pointing away from its cause. RED measured.
(t) sum_token_usage excludes a failed project's spend, and that is the honest
answer, not a bug: a run that died before producing a stamp has no provenance,
and inventing one is the fabrication RunFailure exists to avoid. What needed
gating is that those tokens still reach the ledger the global cap is enforced
against — otherwise a repeatedly-failing project burns budget while the meter
reads clean. Pins meter.spent as the pass's real cost, sum_token_usage as the
completed-run subtotal, and their difference as exactly the failed spend. RED
measured against the likely "fix" (sourcing sum_token_usage from the meter),
which is wrong because a seeded meter also carries EARLIER passes' spend; 21
existing budget/portfolio tests stay green under it.
(s) _wave_snapshot uses dataclasses.replace, so a field added later is carried
without touching the function. Not cosmetic: measured, dropping retriever by
hand-enumerating left all 585 tests green — the Step-2 coverage its docstring
credited no longer existed, so the S3.1 retriever seam could be downgraded
mid-pass in silence. Now gated by a property test derived from
dataclasses.fields (not a field count, the shape rejected earlier). The explicit
verdicts copy is retained and separately gated: replace(store) alone shares the
caller's list and takes the byte-identical determinism test RED.
strict=True on the zip is documented as deliberately untested — measured green
when dropped, since gather is built from exactly snapshots, so a test could only
go red by manufacturing a mismatch and would exercise zip rather than this pass.
The new double is registered in the S2.5 consolidation guard's delegating-
overrides list rather than the guard being weakened; it already delegates via
super()._inner_get_response, which test_delegating_overrides_call_super now
enforces on it.
583 -> 586 tests.

PortfolioBudget + PortfolioMeter carry ONE token ledger over a whole portfolio
pass -- and, seeded from a persisted spend file, across passes -- while the
per-run Budget/TokenMeter pair is untouched. Three enforcement points, each
doing a different job:
- startup: a remainder that cannot fund one run raises BudgetRefused before
anything loads (a pass that can afford zero projects is a caller mistake,
not a result);
- wave assembly: an unfundable project is NEVER STARTED and the pass stops
structurally (budget_stop + stopped_early, completed runs preserved).
Because every member of a wave is funded against the SAME pre-wave
remainder, admission RESERVES each member's requirement -- otherwise a wave
of k over-commits the cap by up to k runs;
- pre-call: BudgetMiddleware refuses a call the remainder cannot pay for
instead of making it. The post-charge check stays: real usage is only
knowable after the response, so the guard stops the NEXT call, never the
one in flight.
budget_stop is its own field rather than a widened stop_reason -- a goal-stop
is success, this is resource exhaustion, and fusing them would make "we
stopped" unreadable. PortfolioMeter splits record/check so tokens the provider
already billed reach the ledger even when the same charge breaks the run's own
cap. read_spend raises on corrupt content (our own accounting state, unlike
the tolerant RAW inbox layer); write_spend takes a REQUIRED stamp with no
wall-clock default, mirroring promote_verdict.
Load-bearing MEASURED, not asserted -- 6 mutations, all red: detach the wave
check; detach the pre-call guard; detach the wave reservation; check the run
cap before crediting the global ledger; detach the startup refusal; make
read_spend tolerant. Files restored from shasum-verified copies after each.
Two findings worth keeping: the pre-call guard MASKS a detached wave check if
the test asserts on overspend (spend stays under the cap either way), so the
load-bearing assertion had to become failures == () plus never-started; and
the token arithmetic is probed (32 tokens/run at tokens=8), not guessed.
537 -> 553 tests, ruff + mypy green.

Closes OQ1 (SC8). At k>1 every project in a wave reads the WAVE-START store,
so a verdict captured by project A does not reach project B's hypothesis
prompt inside the same wave — sequentially it would. Deliberate: the snapshot
is what removes the append race, and restoring intra-wave visibility would
restore the completion-order dependence the barrier exists to eliminate.
Learning flows ACROSS wave boundaries, not within them; concurrency trades
learning granularity for wall-clock.
The shipped fixture cannot show this (the fold is bundle_dir-gated and no
reference project sets bundle_dir), which is a property of the fixture and not
of the design — so it is pinned on the road-k + bundle-k+1 pair via the
existing load_reference_projects monkeypatch seam, no new production seam.
k=1 (two waves) carries the sentinel; k=2 (one wave) does not; store content
stays identical across k. Each half is the other's control.
Detach measured: remove _wave_snapshot -> RED on three tests including this one.
Also corrects two stale docstrings that outlived Session 1's finding: the
module header and the Step-2 test still named a sorted() in _merge_wave as the
detach point. There is no sorted() there, and a project_id sort would BREAK
the k=1-identity contract rather than protect it. A docstring naming a detach
point that does not exist is the green-but-dead defect this file exists to
prevent, so both now name the snapshot and mark the plan's claim as measured
wrong.
_wave_snapshot gains the honesty line about copying exactly two fields, with
the reason no field-count guard was added.

Documents the wave-model reading of the existing Step-8 goal semantics (a
reading, not a redesign — Session 1 already moved the checks to wave assembly
because the executor required it) and pins it with three tests.
Goal checks run at WAVE ASSEMBLY, per member: a HARD per-project goal removes
the pid before the wave starts, so an excluded project is never STARTED and
leaves no verdict behind; a HARD portfolio goal stops the pass with the
assembled wave still crossing its barrier; SOFT flags and continues.
Detach points measured:
per-project goal keyed per WAVE, not per member -> RED (membership diverges
at k=3, unaffected at k=1)
import threading under src/ -> RED (AST guard)
promote_verdict called on the run path -> RED (tripwire)
Corrects one claim the plan and my first docstring both implied: checking the
goal MID-WAVE does NOT make membership completion-order dependent.
_goal_limit_if_reached reads only the ledger, contract and baseline, all
invariant during a pass, so a later check reaches the same decision.
Determinism of membership is the ONE-WRITER rule's (C3, now a tripwire test),
not the check's placement; placement buys the never-started property. The
docstrings say this rather than claiming a detach point that does not exist.

One project's exception no longer cancels its siblings: the wave's gather
runs with return_exceptions=True and each raised project becomes a frozen
RunFailure(project_id, error, error_type) in the defaulted
PortfolioResult.failures, while every completed project keeps its full
RunResult. RunFailure is a distinct type rather than an error field on
RunResult (six required non-defaulted fields -> dummies would be fabricated
provenance); the deviation from the spec's wording is stated in both
docstrings. TaskGroup is rejected: it cancels siblings on first exception.
snapshots reaches _merge_wave unfiltered, and results are paired back to pids
by POSITION (gather resolves in argument order) so a mid-wave failure cannot
disturb store order or misattribute the failure.
Detach points measured, not asserted:
drop return_exceptions=True -> RED (both new tests)
reorder snapshots before merge -> RED (+ Session 1's determinism test)
pair results by sorted(), not position -> RED (failure misattributed)
filter failed members before merge -> GREEN, measured
The last one corrects the plan: its carried-forward requirement implied
filtering before the merge was the hazard. Filtering preserves relative order,
which is all _merge_wave consumes, so the variant is undetectable AND harmless.
The docstring now names the reorder as the detach point and records the
filter asymmetry, rather than claiming a detach point that does not exist.

Replaces run_portfolio's sequential loop with a wave loop over _waves(ids, k):
each wave takes a per-project snapshot of the shared store, runs the wave under
one asyncio.gather in a single event loop, then crosses a merge barrier that
folds each project's NEW verdicts back in wave-submission order. Step 2's
contract goes GREEN; runs stays in project_ids order because gather resolves in
argument order, not completion order.
TWO PLAN CORRECTIONS, both found by the RED-first test rather than by reading:
1. The plan specified sorting the merged verdicts on `project_id`. Measured, that
produces a deterministic order which is the WRONG one: lexicographic gives
BRU/FV42/RV13 while the sequential pass gives FV42/RV13/BRU. It satisfies
"deterministic" while breaking "identical to concurrency=1" — and the second is
the actual contract. The merge preserves submission order instead.
2. The plan named the barrier's sort as the load-bearing seam. It is not — with
per-project snapshots the wave list is never reordered by completion, so a
sorted() there would re-sort an already-ordered list and read as a guard while
guarding nothing. The SNAPSHOT is the half that carries the load. Rather than
ship a decorative sort, both halves were measured (scratchpad-restore, never
git checkout):
detach _wave_snapshot -> RED (store lands in completion order)
detach merge ordering -> RED (reversed wave order diverges)
Both restored byte-identical (sha 42b01d46).
The snapshot carries `retriever` across deliberately: dropping it would silently
downgrade a caller-owned store's S3.1 semantic-retrieval opt-in mid-pass.
Also strengthens the scripted-client consolidation guard, which the probe broke by
being a legitimate third _inner_get_response def-site. It pinned a literal count
of 2 — the wrong shape: it failed on any new legitimate subclass while still
passing if someone pasted a duplicated body into an already-listed file. It now
pins the property (registered sites, scripted-lineage overrides must delegate via
super(), foreign-lineage doubles must genuinely be foreign). Verified load-bearing:
removing both delegation sites turns it RED.

Add keyword-only `concurrency: int = 1` to `run_portfolio`, a module-level
`_waves` partitioner, and a fail-fast on k < 1 that precedes any project load.
The execution loop is deliberately NOT changed here. At the default k=1 every
wave holds a single project, so the wave partition reproduces the existing
`for pid in ids` order by construction — the parameter is inert until Step 3
wires the executor. The 5 tests pin exactly that: order preservation across
every k, nothing dropped or duplicated, and the k<1 raise.

After parse_args, validate mode consistency with structured refusals (rc 1, not argparse.error):
--portfolio + any single-project-only flag (--docs-dir/--bundle-dir/--verdict-dir/--outbox-dir/
--run-id/--live-dry-run) is refused naming the offending flag; --goals/--ledger outside --portfolio
is refused. --decision/--rationale are EXCLUDED (non-None defaults make explicit-vs-default
indistinguishable — Pass-2 #2; inert in portfolio mode, README says so). --dimension-config is
valid in both modes. Validation precedes the portfolio dispatch, so refusals fire before any load.
RED-first: (a)/(a')/(c) failed offline (rc 0 fall-through) before the check, green after; (b)/(b')
single-project guard + legacy backward-compat pin were already green post-Step-3. All refusal-arm
RED fall-throughs held OFFLINE (met-goal / --live-dry-run) — no socket, per brief NFR. 15 passed,
ruff + mypy clean.

main() gains a --portfolio mode flag dispatching to the EXISTING run_portfolio (not modified):
loads --goals/--ledger/--dimension-config via the fail-fast loaders, passes project_ids=(pid,)
or None (all reference projects), and prints a deterministic goal-stop line
'goal reached: scope=... project=... observed_ore=... limit_ore=... stopped_early=...' from the
returned GoalReached/PortfolioResult. Positional project_id relaxed to nargs='?' and --docs-dir to
optional, with a compensating single-project-mode guard (no pid/no --docs-dir -> rc 1 refusal) so
the legacy contract still fails loudly. Dispatch + guard sit BEFORE the live_dry_run branch
(Pass-2 #3 — appended after, they'd be dead code). Loader failures use the same structured refusal
('portfolio run refused: ...'). Load-bearing pair (RED-first): portfolio-hard goal already met
breaks offline before any client (scope=portfolio, stopped_early=True); per-project-hard control
skips the only pid (scope=project, stopped_early=False) — the two arms force the printed fields to
derive from run_portfolio's real values. Marker 13731 øre. 9 passed, ruff + mypy clean.

main() single-project path now parses --dimension-config (fail-fast via load_dimension),
--outbox-dir, and --run-id (deliberate 7th companion flag: determinism invariant forbids a
wall-clock run_id default). All three threaded into BOTH run_project call sites. Full-run
branch wrapped in a structured-refusal (catch ValueError/FileNotFoundError/ValidationError ->
'run refused: {exc}' on stderr, rc 1, no traceback); the EXISTING dry-run handler widened to
the same tuple (pydantic ValidationError is not a ValueError subclass; load_dimension's
FileNotFoundError would otherwise traceback — Pass-2 #1). --outbox-dir carries a loud help=
note it must differ from --verdict-dir (self-contamination footgun; documented, not enforced).
RED-first: 4 CLI tests failed on unrecognized args, green after. 7 passed (incl. live-dry-run
regression). ruff + mypy clean.

Post-hoc /trekreview of S4.2 surfaced two confirmed findings; both closed via TDD.
S42-001 (MAJOR): the new --live-dry-run CLI tests read PORTFOLIO_MODEL_MAP /
PORTFOLIO_FOUNDRY_PROJECT_ENDPOINT via resolve_model/AzureFoundryBackend but did
not isolate them, so both arms inverted their rc in a Foundry-configured env.
Add an autouse fixture that delenvs both, mirroring test_backends/test_preflight.
S42-002 (MINOR): the --live-dry-run except ValueError attached the azure-preflight
remediation to every offline-path ValueError (unknown project_id, empty docs_dir,
bundle mismatch). Scope the hint to args.profile == "azure"; structured refusal +
rc 1 preserved for all. New test proves a LOCAL unknown-project refusal carries no
azure hint.
Gate: pytest 358 passed / 4 skipped, ruff check + format clean, mypy 24 files.
The short loop captured the expert verdict inline into an in-memory store, so a
verdict arriving days/weeks later in a separate run could not influence any future
hypothesis (målbilde §5 row 7). Steg 7 adds the long timescale: run_project gains an
opt-in verdict_dir async inbox that load_verdicts_from_dir -> store.add MERGES into the
store BEFORE the Step-1 ExpeL fold, so a verdict dropped after an earlier run reaches a
separate, later run's hypothesis — fully resumable across runs separated in time.
- verdicts.py: verdict_to_dict / verdict_from_dict (id read verbatim, never re-minted),
write_verdict (public authoring primitive, NOT wired into run_project — system reads
the folder, expert/persona writes it, §3 role split), tolerant load_verdicts_from_dir
(missing/foreign/half-written files skipped, not raised — RAW layer per §10 R2),
VerdictStore.from_dir.
- run.py: verdict_dir kwarg; ingest-merge block after load_contracts (merge not replace
keeps run_portfolio's cross-project threading; store.add idempotent on content-hash id;
no change to the fold). CLI --bundle-dir/--verdict-dir thread the long loop to the
console entry. No auto-persist of the run's own captured verdict (outbox/Steg 8).
- Load-bearing PAIR (test_step7_async_loop_loadbearing.py): a verdict dropped after run A
must reach run B's prompt (run B uses a FRESH store -> the transfer is the file loop,
not in-memory carryover); empty-inbox control proves causality. Marker = a realization
value absent from the bundle (not the seed's 0.82). Proven RED on ingest detach.
Suite 138 -> 140 passed, 4 skipped; mypy + ruff check clean. Målbilde treated as frozen
(no §3/§5/§7 edit). Step 8 (gated wiki promotion) remains.

Closes gap #3 (maalbilde §5): the GroupChat checker critiqued into the void —
output_from=[proposer] surfaced only the proposer, so an explicit checker
rejection was ignored and the deterministic validator was the sole gate. Two
falsifiers now act on the same candidate: the validator gates the NUMBERS
(blocking, unchanged), the checker gates the REASONING (maalbilde §2/§6).
- workflow.py: output_from=agents surfaces both participants; the checker
instruction ends with a VERDICT: APPROVE / VERDICT: REJECT - <reason> line.
- run.py: _authored_texts() reads author_name through out.messages (MAF 1.9.0
puts it there, not on the AgentResponse); _debate_text() now selects the
PROPOSER-authored output (fixes a latent texts[-1] regression that would feed
the checker's verdict to generation at even round counts); _checker_verdict()
parses the gate decision. An explicit REJECT overrides an otherwise-validated
outcome to a checker-sourced Rejection. Opt-in-reject (fail-open on a missing
marker). RunResult gains checker_verdict; provenance.validator_decision is
stamped from the validator outcome BEFORE the override, so it never conflates
the two falsifiers (provenance honesty).
Load-bearing (maalbilde §7): tests/test_checker_gate_loadbearing.py is a PAIR —
an explicit checker REJECT on a VALIDATOR-VALID proposal yields a Rejection whose
reason carries the checker's reason while validator_decision stays "validated";
the causality control (checker APPROVE, same proposer) validates normally. Proven
RED on BOTH detach points (revert output_from, or drop the override).
Suite 134->136 passed, 4 skipped; mypy + ruff check clean. Pre-existing
ruff-format drift (backends/budget/verdicts/test_contracts) left untouched for a
surgical diff.

Closes the honest Fase 2a limitation: docs_dir==bundle_dir let keyword
chunk-stuffing leak the verdict's realization rate ("0.82") into the debate /
generation prompt regardless of the ExpeL fold (it surfaced from both
verdict-led-fro.md AND golden.json). The realization signal now reaches the
hypothesis prompt ONLY via the gated ExpeL fold.
- okf.py: bundle_context() + Bundle.context_files render the navigated bundle
(index + frontmatter + cross-links) as the agent read-context, EXCLUDING
type: verdict (maalbilde §2/§4). Pure stdlib, still MAF-free.
- datasource.py: bundle_citations() derives first-class citations from the
navigated non-verdict files.
- run_project: on the bundle path context + citations + debate tools come from
navigation (tools=[]; navigation replaces query-time RAG); the road path keeps
chunk-stuffing unchanged.
Load-bearing (maalbilde §7): the marker is upgraded from the minted verdict id
to the realization signal itself. The empty-store control now asserts "0.82"
reaches NO prompt — RED against the pre-2b chunk-stuffing path, green after
navigation (TDD red->green). New okf-level test_bundle_context_excludes_verdict_layer
guards the seam directly.
Suite 133->134 passed, 4 skipped; mypy + ruff check clean. Reverted unrelated
ruff-format drift (backends/budget/verdicts/test_contracts) to keep the diff
surgical.

Closes maalbilde §5 gap #1 (the one missing "feedback-into-prompt" dataflow)
for the OKF-bundle path. Before, ExpeL was computed AFTER generation into a
discarded SessionContext, so a prior verdict could not influence any hypothesis
(context_providers=0).
- New okf.py: framework-neutral OKF bundle navigation (index + frontmatter +
cross-links), pure stdlib, no agent_framework/mcp (D7-portable), enforced by
test_okf_is_maf_free.
- verdicts.py: seed_store_from_bundle + bundle_candidate_features build the
ExpeL substrate + the pre-hypothesis query key from a bundle.
- run_project(bundle_dir=...): folds the candidate's prior verdicts into the
generation context BEFORE generate_via_llm; the road path is unchanged.
Load-bearing (maalbilde §7): test_step1_expel_loadbearing proves a prior verdict
reaches the hypothesis prompt and goes RED when the fold is detached (shown via
TDD red->green). The marker is the minted verdict id (content hash) because
docs_dir==bundle_dir lets keyword chunk-stuffing leak the realization rate;
clean layer separation is Fase 2b.
Suite 121->133 passed; mypy + ruff check clean.
