Rule the EchoLedger into base pre-release
User-ruled 2026-07-29: the ledger's construction slot returns to base
("right first") rather than riding with pro-m1's auto-committer. 10 now
pins that the announcer consumes per-file facts on every reload origin —
reconciling reloads' receipt-less changes classify foreign and announce
(the launch-catch-up doctrine applied to speech), closing both interim
holes: debounce-window absorption and reconcile silence.
Implementation filed as "Build the EchoLedger" (order 65920) on the
Backlog; pro-m1's auto-commit card annotated to consume, not construct.

- **Foreign changes announce, app-mediated echoes never do.** The auto-committer already classifies every observed change as app-mediated or foreign (the EchoLedger — 02-architecture.md ▸ Components) and synthesizes diff summaries for commit messages (06-history-undo.md); announcements reuse that summarizer — one polite (non-interrupting) digest per reload debounce ("Board changed: 2 cards edited, 1 card added"), never per-file chatter. On no-git boards the same classifier runs without the committer — announcements don't depend on git mode. **The digest covers the trash only while the trash lane is shown** (ruled 2026-07-29): with View ▸ Show Trash on, trash cards are ordinary elements of the visible board (▸ Trash lane above), so a foreign purge, restore, or Empty Trash joins the digest like any lane's churn — a user working in the shown trash must hear it emptied under them; while hidden, trash churn stays silent, matching "no layout side effects from a foreign edit".

On no-git boards the same classifier runs without the committer — announcements don't depend on git mode. **The digest covers the trash only while the trash lane is shown** (ruled 2026-07-29): with View ▸ Show Trash on, trash cards are ordinary elements of the visible board (▸ Trash lane above), so a foreign purge, restore, or Empty Trash joins the digest like any lane's churn — a user working in the shown trash must hear it emptied under them; while hidden, trash churn stays silent, matching "no layout side effects from a foreign edit".

- **A vanishing focus is called out specifically.** If the selected or VO-focused card disappears in a reload (deleted externally, or gone with its deleted lane), the announcement names it ("Card 'Fix login' was deleted externally") and focus recovers to the card's lane (mirroring selection's reload-survival rules, 02-architecture.md). **Naming and recovery are independent axes** (ruled 2026-07-29): when the head of a multi-selection vanishes but co-selected cards survive, the announcement still names the vanished head — the thing under the cursor was deleted, and that is what the rule exists to say — while the focus move is vetoed by the survivors (02's re-resolution rule: the head re-anchors within the surviving selection; a reload never edits a selection the user still partly holds). Vanished non-head members stay unnamed and fall to the digest's counts. **When the lane itself vanished, recovery walks up then sideways** (settled): focus lands on the lane now occupying the vanished lane's position — the next lane by `order`, else the previous one — and on the board container only when no lanes remain (the ⌫-successor pattern, 04-interactions.md, applied to external change; never into the trash, which stays hidden — no layout side effects from a foreign edit). The announcement then names the *lane*, not the card ("Lane 'Doing' was deleted externally, with 5 cards") — the implied-events-don't-steal-the-subject discipline of 06-history-undo.md's composer, applied to speech.

- **Bracketed operations announce once, at completion** ("Pulled 3 commits", "Switched to branch 'redesign'") — never their internal churn (02-architecture.md's bracketing). The live-reload-resilience banner (02-architecture.md) is an accessibility element and is announced when it appears and when it clears — including the read-only lock after a failed bracketed reload. **Banner transitions are origin-independent** (confirmed 2026-07-29): "app-mediated echoes never announce" governs the change digest — never narrate the user's own edits — but a banner appearing or clearing is surface liveness, visible to a sighted user regardless of cause, so it speaks on any reload origin (an app write whose reload clears a breakage is exactly a moment the user should hear "cleared"). Precedence ladder: raised condition > bracket completion > cleared condition > vanished focus > digest.
