Why: The approved contract requires exactly three safe attempts for Cursor, agy, and PI, then one Codex emergency attempt, never host implementation authority.
Evidence: Routing/config tests were RED for never, max attempts, forbidden adapters, and legacy host fallback; 133 related tests now pass with one opt-in probe skipped.
Impact: Normal emergency-mode roles reject all non-Cursor/agy/PI adapters, project fallback is never, and Codex remains available through emergency/review paths.
Refs: independent Codex review of feature/agent-cli-enforcement
Why: Agents must use configured CLIs for implementation and testing, while remaining free to inspect, plan, test, and iterate within bounded scope.
Evidence: Task-card contract tests and the full 430-test governance discovery pass with 19 existing skips; diff-check passes.
Impact: Defines three safe attempts per normal CLI, one emergency Codex attempt, fail-stop terminals, and mandatory apply/admit integration.
Refs: feature/agent-cli-enforcement
Why: Synchronize the approved policy candidate with the active simplified merge-window rules now on origin/main.
Evidence: Resolved the two semantic conflicts by preserving upstream queue simplification and this task's goal-first/cursor-per-unit contract; focused task-card regression and cached diff checks passed.
Impact: Retains the active single-window delivery process while replacing mechanical stage approvals with necessary decisions and preserving Cursor-per-unit execution.
Refs: .task/feature-goal-first-delivery.md
Why: Ensure implementation authorship is delegated per unit while the primary model remains responsible for planning and delivery management.
Evidence: The focused task-card generation regression went red then green, and git diff --check passed.
Impact: Every repository-writing implementation unit gets a fresh Cursor CLI run; unavailable or failed Cursor work is recorded as a blocker instead of being silently implemented by the primary model.
Refs: .task/feature-goal-first-delivery.md
Why: Keep authorized work focused on its stated outcome, prevent private scope expansion, and remove mechanical human stage gates.
Evidence: make test-governance passed 344 tests with 18 environment-dependent skips; receipt is recorded in the task card.
Impact: New tasks use goal-first execution while retaining real decision points, independent review, evidence, platform admission, and high-consequence dual keys.
Refs: .task/feature-goal-first-delivery.md
Why: Keep branches developing independently and serialize only final sync, validation, and agent merge without expanding into audits or new platform mechanisms.
Evidence: scope and link checks, git diff --check, and recursive worktree verification passed as SELF evidence in the task card.
Impact: Documentation only; existing task-sync, CI, branch protection, and agent merge behavior remain unchanged.
Refs: Agent-System-Dev #518
Why: retain the approved status changes and current documentation while adopting the already approved manual delivery window after real platform validation.
Evidence: original startup, conflict resolution, combination test and writer inventory receipts are preserved in the task card; independent Doc89 and platform replay reports are referenced. Final candidate CI and review remain required.
Impact: publish the delivered Documents merge, manual trial policy and truthful capability state; keep all workflow triggers/checks and original task baseline unchanged.
Refs: Dev PR #489; Documents PR #89; Issue #518; approved merge queue implementation plan r1; user continuation authorization on 2026-10-14
Why: The approved document dependencies have been reviewed and merged. Their actual immutable merge commits must be fixed before final host validation, while operational activation remains a separate gate.
Evidence: Independent document replay and verified PR merges are recorded in the task card. The staged host combination passed make test with actual merged child pointers; final commit build/CI remains pending and will be recorded outside source.
Impact: Advance only the two reviewed merged child pins, expose the real plan path, and record partial stage-seven approval and pending activation. Preserve current main components and existing admission/owner boundaries.
Refs: Guidelines PR #5 (2f5b198); Documents PR #96 (129cc35); Dev PR #519; implementation plan U4-U6; Issue #518
Why: agents need consistent entrypoints and recording defaults to avoid retrying synchronization and CI outside the final delivery window.
Evidence: SELF generated-task-card red-green regression and governance suite recorded through make evidence; pending shared record created as Issue #518.
Impact: rules, task template and capability matrix stay explicit about pending activation, default strict startup, manual coordination and unchanged CI triggers.
Refs: U4; policy/merge-queue.md; .task/feature-merge-queue-policy-draft.md
Why: make the agent responsible for merging reviewed PRs without another human merge step.
Evidence: SELF governance and generated-card checks are captured in .task/feature-agent-pr-merge.md; CI remains required on the final PR HEAD.
Impact: update project delivery policy, agent entry points, task metadata and closure guidance; preserve platform protection and scoped authorization.
Refs: .task/feature-agent-pr-merge.md; user instruction on 2026-10-12
Why: preserve project direction across tasks and require grounded next-task recommendations.
Evidence: the generated task-card regression fails before the template update and passes afterward; original SELF receipts are in the task card.
Impact: document the planning entrypoint and extend task records without granting new-task execution rights.
Refs: .task/feature-goal-continuity.md; policy/delivery.md
Why: cleanup, component synchronization, receipt recording and credential handling could contradict the documented development boundaries.
Evidence: SELF 75 isolated governance tests and source checks are captured in .task/feature-governance-reliability.md; combination and CI verification follow.
Impact: hardens local task and CI tooling, aligns policy and component documentation, and adds continuous regression tests without changing product behavior.
Refs: .task/feature-governance-reliability.md; policy/governance.md; policy/platform-admission.md
Why: precheck missed uninitialized submodules (git submodule status '-'
prefix), and the branch protection configured today plus the second live
probe outcome must be recorded honestly in the matrices.
Evidence: platform negative: direct push to protected main rejected
(pre-receive hook declined, Logging-System probe); second write-guard probe
confirmed session-start config loading (no hook run in the pre-config
session log).
Impact: precheck sub_dirty now counts '-' prefixed entries; A3 registered
enforced at platform layer across 11 repos; zcode matrix pending-live
annotated with the loading-timing proof.
Refs: policy/tool-adaptation-matrix.md; policy/tool-adaptation-zcode.md
Why: the library now defines requirement-level conformance for tool rules
and hooks (draft.8); the composition's existing gate mechanisms should be
honestly graded against A1-A7 rather than implicitly assumed compliant.
Evidence: matrix rows cite the 19/19 scratch suite negatives, the live data/
dirty-tree interception, and PR records; commit-msg python3 dependency
verified fail-closed by reading the hook's test path.
Impact: docs-only; guidelines gitlink advances to c9ab623 (draft.8); no
workflow or code change.
