User addendum to the integrity pass: kind moves from the lane table to the
common frontmatter table — board/lane/card at creation, comment reserved;
value-trusted where consulted, consequential only inside .trash/ today,
carried everywhere for consistency. A missing kind backfills on touch via
the integrity service. Guide v6 teaches kind on every object.

User-proposed and ruled 2026-07-29, retiring the design's sole
destructive delete: lane delete becomes a move into .trash/, exactly as
cards move. Full rationale on the Redesign board's Resolved card;
implementation is post-m12 ("Lanes delete into the trash" on the
Backlog) — the docs deliberately lead the code until then.
- 01: kind: lane always present on lane frontmatter (created with the
lane, healed on touch, never stripped) — discriminates lane from card
in the flat .trash/, where an empty lane is shape-identical to a
card; legacy deleted: on lanes is now simply ignored (no migration,
no notice — backward compatibility deliberately not funded).
- 03: trashed lane = opaque dimmed row with card count, restores whole
or purges whole; confirms count lane freight; fixed 03's own copy of
the "native undo restores a permanent delete" contradiction.
- 04: delete staged by place for lanes too (board→trash no dialog,
trash→permanent confirmed); lane drop on shown trash deletes;
kind-homogeneous trash selections, ranges skip by kind; ⌘X/⌘V restore
rides the existing lane-paste rule.
- 10: trashed lane is one flattened element, never a container.
- 13: lane delete inverse = ordinary move back; recreate-from-capture
retires — no destructive delete remains outside the trash.
- 08: agent guide v6 — lanes trash by move, kind: lane taught.

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.

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).

- 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

The composer was a pure snapshot diff while the repo tracked files outside
the model (agent guide, strays, .gitignore), leaving stray-only windows
uncommittable and the guide's own subject underivable. Settled: the
committer stages the whole root with the tree as its commit condition; the
composer also receives the changed-path list, composing "Update agent
guide (vN)" (version from the marker line) and "Update '<path>'" events
that ride as body bullets under model-event subjects; attribution falls
out of the path-keyed EchoLedger.

Resolves the 06-vs-08 contradiction: 06's Lanework External fallback
demotes on true deletions only (id vanished from the board, per the
message engine's whole-board id matching), not folder moves. A bare mv
leaves the moved card unstamped, so 08 now teaches re-stamping on every
move as well as every write.
