Delete Immediately is removed entirely (ruling ae1dd96, Redesign card
d40bfac1): the delete vocabulary is purely staged — board → trash,
trash → permanent (confirmed on no-git boards), Empty Trash for bulk.
Gone: File ▸ Delete Immediately (⌥⌘⌫) and its validation, both
⌥-alternate context rows (card + the permanently-disabled lane row),
the VO custom action, BoardStore.deleteImmediately,
TrashModel.canDeleteImmediately, TrashConfirmations' .purge action
(zero surviving callers — trash-side Delete always used
.deleteTrashCards), and the pinning tests. purgePrompt drops its
now-single-purpose container parameter (.trash is the only surviving
caller). BoardWriter.purgeItem survives — create-undo rollback still
needs it — with its comment rewritten. README's trash paragraph drops
the ⌥⌘⌫ sentence.
The other 2026-07-30 rulings (2ec2c95 registry freshness stamp,
c741b02 unified-log-as-coerce-consumer) required no code changes —
already conformant.
Both schemes 1844 tests / 318 suites green.

Phase 3 finishes the pivot at the surface. One card face serves two
containers: CardFaceView extracted with a role — board or trash — so
stripe, tint, chip, selection stroke, cut dim, marquee registration,
and drag are shared by construction, the trash side differing only in
its absences: no Open, no rename, no Style, no file-hover highlight,
and a Delete that goes through the confirmation host. The column
rewrote around the lanes' own single-column masonry so drag reflow
reads as positional slides; chrome stays the hatched header, symbol,
and count — 11 gives Empty Trash to the File menu alone. Two real
grammar bugs die here: plain Backspace on a trash selection purged
without the confirmation the menu raises, and the context menu's
Delete resolved against the standing selection, so right-clicking a
trash card under a board selection silently did nothing — it now
stages the clicked set explicitly. Open, Rename, Style, and Empty
Trash validation became testable store seams; the column is one named
accessibility container of ordinary card elements. The tombstone era
is swept: deleteItem, restoreItem, stripTombstonedChildren — dead
since lane copies stopped nesting trash — the restore verb, the
unreachable put-back banner row, and every quasi-lane doc comment.

Phase 2 swaps every consumer: Liveness and its ancestor walk are gone,
replaced by ItemContainer — a UUID set plus the container side it
lives on, presence the whole test, one selection boundary instead of
the old liveness law. Deletion stages by place: board cards move to
the trash at a store-minted head rank, trash-side delete is permanent
behind its confirmation, Delete Immediately skips the trash from
anywhere, lane delete captures the subtree and removes the folder.
Restore has no method at all — moveCards resolves members in either
container, so drag-out and cut-paste are the ordinary moves 13 calls
them, registering ordinary Move steps. The delete inverse moves the
card back to its captured lane and rank; redo replays the captured
trash rank, a value the gesture actually wrote; lane undo recreates
the subtree byte-faithfully in session. Purges register nothing —
where 13's trash section contradicts its own Rules on that, Rules
wins, filed for ruling. Staleness collapsed to present-or-absent: a
container is a path, so a foreign restore fails the delete step's
expectation structurally. Legacy tombstones migrate on the loose-file
tail hook, cards oldest-first so minting above top reproduces the
retired newest-first column, lanes returning live, one folded loss
row naming both directions. Put Back, restoreByDrag,
receiveRestoredCards, TrashEntry, and the kind machinery are deleted;
the trash column renders the container correctly with its full face
rework left to phase 3.

The command surface was already almost entirely platform machinery —
this card proves it and pins it. Headless probes established that
NSWindow.validateMenuItem answers enablement AND rewrites the row title
from the delegate-supplied manager, so 'Undo Move 3 Cards' flows step
phrase to Edit menu with no code of ours; under the lock the rows dim
and keep their names, the correct reading of the-stack-survives. The
toolbar twins validate through validateUserInterfaceItem, which never
touches labels — 03's static-label exception proven rather than
asserted — and their specs' enablement abstention is pinned so nobody
later adds a second, disagreeing answer. The one link a headless run
cannot close is the nil-target key-window resolution itself: standard
responder-chain behavior with none of our code in it, left as the
manual check. Base-edition 'disabled without undo' scaffolding is
reworded away — every base board has undo now. New suites cover the
trash's two doors (delete-then-undo byte-identical to Put Back's
effect), position-preserving restore of a middle card, and the
capstone: five gestures forward, five presses back to the origin
board, five forward again, the menu phrase asserted after every press.

Every crossing validates its expectations before writing: each step
carries per-item HistoryExpectations — folder, effective ancestor-walked
liveness, and exactly the fields the gesture set — and a mismatch pops
the step, posts the signpost ('Undo skipped — Fix login changed outside
Lanework'), and falls through to the next. Validation reads disk, not
the in-memory snapshot: the snapshot is by construction one reload
behind every app write, so a rapid second undo would false-skip against
the pre-state — disk is what current can honestly mean at press time.
Stale and failed part ways: a stale step is one the board moved past,
so dropping it loses nothing; a failed one is refused by a usually
momentary condition, so it stays put and the crossing stops with only
performWrite's own error row — which forced the provider off
NSUndoManager onto two plain arrays, since a popped group cannot be put
back. The read-only lock disables Undo/Redo through the adapter while
the stack survives to resume on clear. Delete and restore validate
presence alone — a machine timestamp is not a decision — and a
malformed field matches nothing, since it is a shape the app never
writes.

The store is the Writer boundary, so it computes and registers
inverses: a weak history sink bound at session composition, one
HistoryStep per gesture at exactly the brackets that were already one
performWrite each — multi-card moves, style batches, width pairs, and
multi-row restores each undo as one plurally-titled step, and the Edit
session registers once at the flip from the bytes disk held before its
first landed write, debounce ticks registering nothing. Crossings run
through performWrite, so an undo brackets the watcher, echoes through
the reload, and reaches every window; every closure captures values,
never snapshots. The inventory follows 13 exactly: moves return to
origin lane and order, renames restore or remove the title key,
restyles and resizes restore field values or absence, tombstones and
restores swap with captured timestamps, and an undone create is a real
removal — no trace — with redo re-materializing the same UUID from
bytes captured at gesture time. Purge, attachments, repair,
bookkeeping, checkbox flips, raw Apply, and the whole arrival family
register nothing, each exclusion documented where it lives. Step names
speak 06's verb vocabulary through the new HistoryPhrase.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
The provider seam 12 promised: HistoryProviding speaks 13's vocabulary
— register a HistoryStep (bare 06 phrase plus undo/redo closures
returning applied or skipped), canUndo/canRedo, action names, clear —
and no UndoManager type appears anywhere in it, proven by a fake that
satisfies the seam with counters. The base provider wraps a private
UndoManager with groupsByEvent off so coalescing stays the Writer call
site's decision; undo re-registers the reversed step from inside the
undo, which makes a stale-skipped step vanish for free and the
crossing loop fall through to the next. BoardUndoManager adapts the
protocol to the responder chain — a stackless UndoManager subclass
answering from the provider — so Pro's git provider inherits menu
enablement, dynamic titles, and the nil-target toolbar pair by binding
the protocol. One stack per board session, born in beginSession,
cleared in the close flush; every window over the board answers it
through windowWillReturnUndoManager. Headless probes shaped the
routing: a real NSTextView's own manager wins natively, but a field
editor's does not — BoardUndoRouting answers the per-window text
manager while any NSText is first responder, so a search-field typo
never crosses a board step.
