Gap #8 written into 02 ▸ FolderWatcher's reconciling bullet: the
value-equal skip's structural consequence is that walk-subject consumers
cannot key on the applied-snapshot generation, so the store carries two
counters — applied (the committed-overlay hold's event, unchanged) and
landed (every successful reload, equal or not; failures bump neither).
The choosing rule: anything outside the snapshot, or about the walk
itself, watches landed walks — the comment thread, the comment search
index, the auto-committer's covering gate.

Settled from the Redesign board's Gap card: the failure class gains a
message-carrying GitOperationFailure shape beside the BoardWriteError
one — error tone, failure rank, BannerCenter phrasing. A failed undo
restore, branch switch, or pull/push presents as the failure it is,
never as a warning-tone loss row; recovery notices stay warning-tone.
Code realign pending (both reportFailure wirings post loss rows today).

2026-07-30 design pass (with the user), superseding the 2026-07-27
two-app split and the 2026-07-29 App Group ruling. Rulings:
- One Mac App Store app (dev.rzen.indie.Kanban, free, 2.0 updates the
existing record); Lanework Pro = auto-renewable subscription (StoreKit
2) unlocking the git tier; libgit2 compiles in dormant. The KanbanPro
target, module-alias tests, verify-editions, UTI/About/Types twins all
retire. Teams stays deferred — probably a separate app, and never on a
shared app group.
- No grandfathering: 1.x's free git users get the inert-.git posture;
unsubscribed and lapsed are one state — histories freeze, resume on
subscribe via the committer's catch-up commit.
- Entitlement = local read of StoreKit's signed transaction store at
board-session composition; never a network call on the open path;
subscribe effective at next open (purchase flow offers reopen); lapse
never interrupts an open session; expiry-while-offline with auto-renew
on holds in grace until a real refresh.
- App Group removed wholesale: registry, clipboard staging, template
store, defaults return to ordinary Application Support; grant slots
collapse to one bookmark, open-now to one flag; freshness stamp,
pid-liveness line, group-id provisioning risk all dissolve.
- Quiet signposts carry over; Settings gains the Pro section (subscribe/
manage/restore) as the third named Pro surface.
12-editions.md rewritten as the tiers doc; edition vocabulary swept to
tiers across 00-13, README, WISHLIST.

2026-07-30 findings-resolution ruling (Redesign card 89862cef): the
mtime+size stamp the App Group implementation introduced (566deab) is
the designed mechanism, not an invention — checked before every registry
read and mutation, re-read on change, write on top of the other
edition's latest state. The microsecond check-to-write window stays
last-writer-wins, costing at most one convenience field. Deliberately no
NSFileCoordinator and no per-record split. Code already conforms.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
2026-07-30 findings-resolution ruling (Redesign card d40bfac1): Finder's
⌥⌘⌫ answered disk-space pressure boards don't have, and it was the one
gesture reaching unrecoverable straight from the board. The delete
vocabulary is now purely staged: board → trash, trash → permanent
(confirmed on no-git boards), Empty Trash for bulk. Docs drop the File
menu row, both ⌥-alternate context rows, and the VO custom action; code
removal rides the session's realign card.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Ruled 2026-07-29, new block in 12: Pro claims the .kanban default on first launch once (the purchase is the consent; a manual reassignment back is respected; base never claims). The same board open in both apps is the designed foreign-writer story — base has no git so there is no committer contention, no board-level lock (files-first stays absolute), no gate; open-now flags go per-edition on the shared record so restoration stays edition-local, and the popover gains a pid-liveness-checked "Also open in Lanework Pro" line. The clipboard staging store homes in the App Group container, making cross-edition copy/paste full-fidelity; the degraded fallback remains for genuinely missing snapshots.
Board: Gap card 7a244f9f → Resolved (Gaps lane now empty); App Group Implementation card gains the flags/staging/handler bullets.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Ruled 2026-07-29: board windows exist before their first snapshot. Immediate window at the saved frame with registry-cached chrome, quiet spinner after a 200ms grace (no skeletons), first snapshot snaps in, ⌘W cancels the walk as an ordinary close. Restoration goes parallel — all flagged windows at once, walks independent, slow volumes never serialize the launch. Failures keep the settled welcome row surface; the loading window retires rather than morphing into an error display. No info row — the loading state is the surface.
Board: Gap card 4d95f269 → Resolved.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Ruled 2026-07-29: every edition declares group.dev.rzen.indie.Kanban, and the board registry plus its Application Support peers home in the group container from base 2.0 onward — no migration, no ordering dependency, and the entitlement ships in base's first build since base ships first. A paying upgrader launches Pro onto their full recents. Stated caveat: security-scoped bookmarks never cross sandboxes, so the list transfers while access re-grants per board — per-edition grant slots on the shared record, open panel pre-anchored at the recorded path. Teams joins the same team-scoped group later with zero ceremony. Clipboard staging store stays put pending the both-editions-installed clipboard ruling.
Board: Gap card a925e530 → Resolved; Implementation card a647aba2 filed atop Backlog (before-base-ships constraint).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
General ruling (2026-07-29): app-initiated covers every reliably healable repair — unambiguous, content-lossless — because heals are auditable: Pro's separate heal commit is the durable trail, base happens quietly, and a heal that changes user content announces with a warning-tone notice, never a consent gate. The user-gated class stays defined but has no current members. Duplicate-id healing goes silent under Lanework-owns-the-board (free to re-mint UUIDs at will): no condition banner, no Repair button — a scheduled heal remints withheld occurrences (memo-guarded, disk re-verified, no-op on vanished duplicates) and posts "Repaired duplicate id — 'Fix login'". Winner rule unchanged: earlier commit on git boards, filesystem birth date then traversal order without history. 06 keeps the Repair verb as the heal commit's name; 13 moves the remint outside undo with all heals. Dissolves the Repair-has-no-Nexus-row contradiction — no command, no row owed.
Board: Contradictions card ce5e7f60 → Resolved (lane now empty); Implementation card 50ed2b5d (Active) retitled "Dedupe duplicate ids and heal them silently" and realigned mid-flight.

The 2026-07-29 lanes-trash-too ruling never swept the docs last touched 07-28. 11 ▸ Delete drops "lanes delete physically" for the card-or-lane move (freight-counting confirms in the trash); Delete Immediately widens to any card or lane selection; 06's recoverability exception covers both kinds and drops the retired 13-native-undo citation; 07 reads card and lane deletes; 02's welcome-counts exclusion restates as items in .trash/ (trashed lane subtracts from the lane count, its nested cards from the card count — the sibling Minor's ruling folded in). Context-menu row "Trash cards" renamed "Trash selection" on the same basis.
Board: Contradictions card 89a625bf + Minor card 488dc2c2 → Resolved.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
01 gains Validation and healing (five verdicts: refuse / refuse-writes /
tolerate / coerce / heal; heal axes consent x timing incl. the inline mode;
write discipline decided by the existing stamp rule; disk re-verify, memo
discipline, defer-under-lock). kind re-ruled: any object may carry it, the
value names the kind, trusted where consulted, no stripping; backfill is the
service's on-touch heal, on-touch only. 02 gains IntegrityRules +
HealScheduler components — rules and policy consolidate, enforcement stays
with loader/writer.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
The tombstone model is retired wholesale: deletion is a move into the reserved
<root>/.trash/, always entering at the top (rank minting — no deleted: key, no
timestamp sort), with modified stamped for the future age-based purge. Lanes
are never trashed — lane delete is physical, native undo in-session the net.
Put Back is gone: restore is drag-out or cut+paste (⌘X now enabled in the
trash as the keyboard restore path). Trash cards are ordinary cards — search,
selection, clipboard, and rendering uniform — and one container boundary
replaces the effective-liveness, ancestor-walk, and kind-homogeneity machinery
across 02 and 04. Delete stages by place (board moves, trash deletes
permanently under the recoverability confirm); legacy deleted: keys migrate
without destroying (cards relocate, lanes return live, notices). Templates
exclude .trash; Duplicate carries it; the agent guide teaches delete-as-move.
Materialized reserved lanes are named as a pattern — .archive is WISHLIST #8,
and the backed-out release-presentation question is marked open in 03.
Ruling: Redesign board Resolved card e8f1a6c2; 19 mooted tombstone-era rulings
moved to the board's new Mooted lane.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Rulings written in place: the drop settle yields to the system drag session
(fly-to-slot deferred to WISHLIST #7) and the held proposal's home is the
app-wide DragSession — rendering the arrangement means rendering the card at
release (03, 02); folder drops refuse at hover with loss-row reporting, created
cards land positionally, N shadows, header resolves topmost, shadow-only
feedback (04); the banner vocabulary gains the warning-tone loss row class
(02); all user-initiated creation clears the search (04); loose files beside a
card's index.md relocate into attachments/ with notice — files-only carve-out,
paste normalizes at the boundary, the agent guide teaches it (01, 04, 08);
dropping a card on the shown trash deletes it, shadow pinned topmost (04);
query-emptied lanes keep their slot, the out-transition stays reachable, an
open rename survives the filter, pasteboard staleness accepted (04).
The face carousel does not carry over: the pathfinder's selection-keyed dual
presentation proved undesirable — one presentation per card, selection changes
styling never geometry; the attachment chip and the card window are the whole
media story (03, 01, 10, 11; the same-day carousel settlements superseded on
their Resolved cards).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Edition split follow-through: 12-editions.md and 13-native-undo.md join the
corpus; git-era docs (06, 07) are Pro-scoped and cross-references realigned.
Resolution session rulings written in place: caret chords yield to any focused
text control (04, 11); the drop settle holds its proposal as overlay state and
02 gains the overlays family; Duplicate gets the save-panel fallback and a
cancellable copy walk (03); Finder open is a standard document open (02);
failed first opens record before loading with the folder name provisional (02);
trash pointer ranges skip by kind, full-height marquee surface, Select All by
kind, rows-only trashed universe (02, 04); Empty Trash counts entries (03);
create handoff reads as one arrival (02); range-anchor lifecycle, board-
background click grammar, jump landing cards, lane-domain shift-arrows (04);
Reduce Motion restated per voice (10).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
- 02: failed create discards the placeholder; a second creation is a
click-away for the open draft (replace-with-discard, ⌘N unreachable);
unwritable-lock banner names volume vs permissions; WriteOperation
vocabulary grows with rename/body-save surfaces; one bookmark per open
board threads through the open flow; in-progress banner class ratified
newest-first; signpost lifecycle is the dismissable untimed one-shot
- 01: folder-name tie-breaks compare the canonical lowercase spelling
everywhere (Ranks and trash sort)
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Two follow-ups to this session's decisions: the reconciling reload's
writability re-probe now raises the unwritable lock as well as clearing it
(fail loudly once, not per gesture), and under the shape-only identity
predicate the loader deterministically dedupes case-spelled sibling twins
on case-sensitive volumes (lowercase spelling wins, else lexicographic
first; loser takes the stray posture) so a snapshot never carries
duplicate ids.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
- 02: welcome counts are live items only; failed first opens still record;
duplicate-identity registry records merge silently (newest wins);
BoardStore's FolderWatcher pointer reads "below"
- 11: lane-header new-card button inventoried (click names its target lane,
overriding 04's ⌘N rule — cross-referenced there); attachments quiet-add
affordance listed as a twin; Undo/Redo and Pull/Push rows gain the
abnormal-state pause, read-only lock, and unresolvable-remote conditions;
welcome scope added to Reveal in Finder
- 03/11: one lane context menu (header or empty space) with the full
inventory, replacing the split rows
- 09: instantiated boards are never in git mode — actual mode follows
detection at the destination (repo-nested possible)
- 08: the app never writes an existing CLAUDE.user.md; one-time rescue
creation stated as the exception
- README: pathfinder path corrected to ../../Kanban
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
TransientBoardState, one per store, holds state by how a reload treats
it: item-referencing sets (selection, drag membership, pending cut)
share one shape and one constraint rule — members must exist in the
current universe — applied in two directions by one primitive, so the
search filter's hidden-cards rule and reload survival are one rule
expressed once; derived state is stored as its inputs only (the query,
never its result set); and the new-card placeholder is a lane-anchored
overlay with no UUID until commit, discarded when its lane vanishes or
tombstones, handed off when the created card's UUID appears. Trash
visibility rides along per-open, never persisted. The decision is
written back into DESIGN/02 § Changes from Kanban — the TBD is closed.
Full suite 352 tests in 64 suites green. Two findings filed.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_018BjQRYBR6jQja3jCRi5S3A
The row's name and icon implicitly required reading each recent board's
root index.md at welcome time — the hang the counts rule was written to
avoid. Settled: title/icon/iconColor live in the registry record; they
refresh whenever an open board's reload changes them (in-app renames land
instantly, foreign renames of open boards ride along), with closed-board
renames stale until next open like the counts.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Both whole-board copies were absent from the lock's command enumeration,
staying enabled while the source tree was gone, unknown, or unwritable and
while the lock suppressed their required close flush. Settled: Duplicate
disables in every lock state; Save as Template disables except under the
unwritable-location lock, where reading the board into Application Support
is a legitimate copy-out with a vacuous flush precondition.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
The stacking order covered only error classes, letting an in-progress row
collapse behind "+N more" — the sole explanation of a bracket's write lock
and a deferred close. Settled: in-progress rows pin above everything,
exempt from and uncounted by the collapse; the passive remote-change
signpost ranks below all error classes and may collapse.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
The registry recorded recency but not which boards were open at quit.
Settled: each record carries an open-now flag set on open and cleared on
user-initiated close only — quit teardown leaves it standing, so there is
no at-quit write and crash recovery falls out for free. Restoration
reopens flagged records by lastOpened order; the preference only gates
consulting the set.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
10 promised toggleable-without-pointer, 11's normative inventory had the
toggle as pointer-only, and 02's lock disabled it "via menu validation"
with no menu item to validate. Settled: checkboxes and links are real
controls in the focus/accessibility tree — FKA + Space and VO-Space toggle
them; in-content controls are content, not commands, so 04's menu-item
contract and 11's existence rule scope to commands; under the read-only
lock the controls disable in place.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
06 and 10 consumed a per-file app-vs-foreign classifier that 02's component
inventory never named and whose layering prose seemed to deny. Settled: a
new EchoLedger component records each BoardWriter operation's expected
outcome (content hash / absence / move pair); final-content matching
classifies each observed file, deciding both races (byte-identical foreign
write → app-mediated, accepted; same-window foreign overwrite → foreign,
last writer wins). Ledger is in-memory and per-store; launch catch-up is
all-foreign; bracketed operations bypass it. "Trusts its own writes no more
than anyone else's" is scoped to rendering; BoardWriter's no-hidden-state
bullet stands.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Tombstoning a card's lane ejects the card from selection, drag
membership, and the pending cut - liveness is ancestor-walked, since
the card renders nowhere once 03 collapses the lane to a trash entry.
BoardStore's bullet now says it coalesces reloads (one walk in flight)
while the debounce lives in FolderWatcher, matching m3 as built.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
The next-reload-or-lock expectation arms on every bracket exit, thrown
operations included - a mid-flight failure is when the tree's state is
least known, so the mandatory final reload runs regardless.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Contradictions: v1 gains a minimal Settings pane (⌘,) housing the
restore-at-launch toggle; Window ▸ Welcome to Lanework inventoried in 11.
Gaps: close/quit waits for in-flight bracketed and copy-shaped operations;
pull extends the Edit-session treatment to open raw-source buffers
(signpost + last-writer-wins Apply); File ▸ Duplicate keeps tombstones
(01's "as-is" softened to per-flow exclusions). Minor: Undo routing
promoted to a real heading in 06; 11's dead "10 ▸ Actions" citation
repointed. m3 watcher findings: root-gone cancels armed debounced
delivery; mid-bracket root changes owned by the root-change path;
.git filtered at any depth; banked mid-bracket reconciles and the
200 ms debounce ratified.
Four minor design-review findings resolved: appended frontmatter lines
adopt the file's prevailing line ending; empty-but-not-blank frontmatter
joins the readable-but-uneditable shapes; an interrupted renumber's
per-file partial is accepted; the write-failure operation becomes a
closed enum carrying the item title.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
- 10 cites 11 for Add Attachment and the lane-width menu items
- 04 uses ⌘/⇧ symbols for click modifiers; card moves scoped to the
⌥⌘ chord; ../WISHLIST.md path fixed
- 03 says stepper (plus the menu pair) in the editing-surfaces table
- 06 says one commit per debounce window
- 03/10 Reduce Motion lists aligned at five items; rubber-band
disambiguated as the lane-resize feedback
- 11 requires the trash shown for Empty Trash

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Fills the gap: wake/activation reconciling reloads, MustScanSubDirs and
overflow degrade to a full reload, dead streams are recreated at the
re-resolved root. Stale boards structurally excluded.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Fills the gap: on root-gone signals the bookmark re-resolves first —
success absorbs the rename transparently (watcher re-attach, URL and
window-key re-derive, full reload); only an unresolvable bookmark is
the vanished-root lock.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Fills the gap: the lock spans every window sharing the store — Edit
entry, raw-source Apply, attachments, sidebar actions, checkbox toggles
disable; drags out offer copy only. Open Edit buffers stay typable with
saves suspended; held text resolves by lock cause (switch/restore
settle first, post-pull buffer-wins, returned root saves normally).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Resolves the 02-vs-04 contradiction: foreign edits that flip deleted:
on a selected card eject it from the selection (and pending cut, which
already behaved this way), so 04's homogeneous-by-liveness invariant
holds across reloads and menu validation never sees a mixed selection.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Resolves the 02-vs-04 search-filter contradiction: 04's live predicate
wins. 02's frozen-UUID transient-state list drops the result set; the
query is transient, the result set recomputes against each snapshot.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Resolved on the Redesign board: raw-source Apply preserves a typed
modified-by stamp; FolderWatcher is FSEvents-only best-effort with no
iCloud/network fallback; read-only lock scope enumerated; matching
touch-ups in board-ui, card-window, accessibility docs.
