Phase 1 of the lanes-in-trash card (2026-07-29 ruling, docs led the
code): lane delete is a move into .trash/ with the subtree intact,
arriving at top trash rank — no destructive delete remains outside
the trash.
TrashedLane opaque unit (id/schema/title/order/heldCards) beside
trash cards — deliberately not a Lane, so no card-shaped surface can
believe an empty subtree. Loader's trash walk trusts the kind VALUE
(lane → opaque unit w/ held-card count counted at the loader's own
unit; card → ordinary card; absent/unrecognized → UUID-children
shape, empty-kindless falls to card per 01's honest limit). Writer:
moveIntoTrash generalized with kind passed never derived (an empty
lane would re-derive as card), deleteLaneToTrash mints against the
whole-container rank ladder. Retired: migrateTombstonedLane (lane
deleted: now ignored — loads live, bytes inert, tolerate-tier
warning), removeLane, captureSubtree/recreateSubtree and the
subtree-snapshot machinery. Undo inverse = move back to captured
strip position, redo replays at captured trash rank. Purge walks
lane subtrees; TrashModel.Freight phrases confirms with lane freight
("…and its 5 cards"). ItemPath gains .trashLane; resolve interleaves
the trash by rank; SearchFilter matches lane rows by title only.
Trashed-lane card windows dismiss and pending cuts void via the
ordinary vanish rule — no new plumbing.
Phase 2 (rendering, selection grammar, drag, a11y, agent guide)
follows. Both schemes 1858 tests / 318 suites green.

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.

Nine rulings land as code. Reorders don't stamp — one container-change
predicate (WriteOperation.rewritesOrderOnly): within-container reorders
and the renumber rescale rewrite only order, while cross-lane, cross-board,
and trash moves stamp modified and clear modified-by; no trash special
case exists, and the m8 undo inverses conform through the same seam.
Copies are transactions: the root-strict/nested-lenient split retires for
a whole-subtree stampability preflight that refuses loudly naming the
offender, and every item-level copy severs remote/remote-state at every
level (whole-board forks carry them verbatim). Paste refuses, never
degrades: the embedded-index.md materialization and its loss row retire;
a missing staged snapshot produces nothing and posts an error-tone
one-shot named from manifest metadata. Coerce-tier fallbacks log through
the Defect stream with path context attached loader-side. Displacement is
level-uniform: a file squatting attachments inside a card heals by the
same rename ladder as board-root squatters; comments stays tolerated.
Delete Immediately joins card and lane context menus as Delete's
⌥-alternate with its own VO custom action, routed through an explicit
container so the menu target outranks standing selection. Agent guide v7
teaches the stamp discipline and the card-level attachments claim, and
sheds two stale v6 lines (lanes trash now; kind is taught). Verified
conformant, unchanged: edition-aware Undo/Redo disable, trash marquee
full-height backdrop.
Both schemes 1854 tests / 318 suites green; verify-editions 30/30.

The 2026-07-29 integrity design pass, consolidated (DESIGN/01 -
Validation and healing; DESIGN/02 - Components): IntegrityRules
(Storage, pure) is the one home for the identity predicate and
canonical form (BoardWriter.canonicalIdentity deleted, ItemID and the
loader forward to it), the per-field rulebook, uneditable shapes,
per-kind index validation, the reserved-name tables, and the trash
kind discriminator (values trusted - kind: lane/card explicit,
unrecognized falls to shape). LoadResult's ad-hoc channels fold into
one typed Defect stream (looseCardFiles / legacyTombstone /
claimedNameSquatted, per-defect heal signatures); the old accessors
survive as computed views.
HealScheduler (LiveStore) states the six-step heal pattern once -
resting-clear, lock gate, isWritableFile gate (now covering all four
heals), signature memo armed-before-attempt with explicit
clear-on-success, disk re-verify in each write half, one banner-posture
table (BannerCenter keeps all phrasing). The three hand-rolled healers
run on it with behavior preserved - including the
relocation-notice-despite-partial-failure quirk, deliberately. Heals
run at the reload tail AND at registry acquire, closing the
migration-never-fires-at-open asymmetry. Displacement runs first: a
squatted .trash would otherwise fail the migration and arm its memo
against an unchanged picture.
Claimed-name squatters (ruled today, 62c47a2) displace by the shared
Finder-style rename ladder - preserved verbatim, symlinks moved as
links, nothing stamped; AgentGuide's untouchable-skip upgrades to
displace-then-write, the CLAUDE.user.md-taken skip stands. kind stamps
on every create and backfills on any index rewrite via the on-touch
seam (placement resolver stamps nothing when the parent is unknown -
a guessed kind is worse than an absent one; board-root writers declare
theirs). Heal writes mark their EchoLedger receipts (inert in base;
pro-m1's committer will split them into their own commits). The
renumber ask-renumber-ask-again two-step is one shared helper, adopted
at all nine call sites.
69 tests added. 1738 green on both schemes.

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.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
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 sidebar completes: the shared style editor gains a second anchor —
StyleEditorLayout carries the geometry (the popover keeps its settled
268/14/7/8 untouched as the default; the sidebar packs columns to its
width with no inner scroller) while every well, the batch display, the
arrow grammar, and the one applyStyle bracket stay the shared
component's. The card anchor is fixed, not tracking: the target is
this card, and the fate walk retires the window when the card goes.
Details renders every unknown frontmatter key read-only in file order —
Card.document already carried them — showing the author's own bytes
where the raw span is a value and the engine's rendering for block
scalars and empties; reserved enhanced-schema keys are ordinary
unknowns, and no keys means no section. Actions: Delete rides the same
tombstone bytes as Backspace and drop-on-trash through a one-line
seam, says nothing about selection, and lets the fate walk dismiss;
Reveal in Finder resolves through the attachment scope so the two
paths cannot disagree. History reserves its m7 slot without drawing a
header no base board can honor.

04's ruling makes the drag the pointer's delete gesture: the shown
trash column accepts live same-board card drags, the shadow pinned
topmost — honest, since the trash sorts by deleted newest-first — and
release tombstones through the same write path as Backspace, extracted
so the two gestures cannot drift. DropTarget grew a container case for
the quasi-lane (it has no lane id by construction); lane drags,
cross-board arrivals, option-copies (re-checked at release, the one
input that can flip without a callback), trashed-side payloads, hidden
trash, and the read-only lock all refuse — and a refusal falls through
to the strip retarget, never cancelling the drag. The settle draws the
tombstoned rows in the trash under the cards' own GUIDs, so the echo is
an invisible content swap and nothing winks out for a round trip.
Selection needs no surgery: the reload's resolve rule ejects tombstoned
members as the vanish it is, pinned by a test contrasting both gestures.

The pathfinder's drag-reorder model, ported and generalized (DRAG-REORDER.md
travels with it, rewritten for lanes, the interior masonry, multi-drag,
cross-board sessions, the re-grounding trio, and the committed-overlay hold):
- DropSlotMath — resting-layout zones from analytic lane arithmetic and the
pure masonry placement (MasonryLayout now lays out through the same
MasonryPlacement the drag reads, so geometry cannot drift), span-capped
triggers sized to the dragged run's future footprint, hysteresis holds with
the fresh-entry fallback, boundary ties, own-slot no-ops; nil means hold.
- DragAutoScrollMath — the activation bands and velocity ramp, pure.
- The drop commits, one performWrite bracket each: moveCards/copyCards within
a board (insertion ranks touch only the dragged cards; renumber fallback);
receiveCards/receiveLanes/receiveRestoredCards on the destination store for
cross-board copy and ⌘-move with the import-boundary remint, lane copies
stripping tombstoned cards while moves carry them; restoreByDrag is now
positional, writing order only when the drop names a new one.
Gestures, sessions, previews, and delegates are the second half.
773 unit tests (87 new since the keyboard grammar).

Deletion becomes a two-stage, Finder-style story. File > Delete and
plain Backspace tombstone the live selection; View > Show Trash (no
chord — Shift-Cmd-T stays with the system's tab bar) reveals the
quasi-lane: trailing, one fixed width unit consumed only while shown,
hatched dimmed header, count badge, no new-card button, exempt from
resize and reorder alike. Its contents are a pure view over the
snapshot — the deterministic sort (deleted newest first, folder-name
ties, unparseable stamps oldest) interleaves card rows with a
tombstoned lane's single entry, whose count names what Put Back
returns; the ancestor walk is absolute, so an own-flag card beneath a
tombstoned lane has no row and recovery is deliberately two steps.
Put Back twins Delete on Cmd-Backspace with validation enabling
exactly one; restore fidelity is byte-perfect because nothing ever
moved. Delete Immediately confirms exactly where loss is real (every
board is mode-none today; the predicate names the git carve-out for
m7), Empty Trash always confirms with the true whole-board count,
and dragging a tombstoned card onto a live lane restores it there —
positional drops and cross-board locality arrive with m5's machinery.
The banner's delete phrasing drops "move to the trash" per the naming
constraint: board deletion says Delete, "Move to Trash" stays
reserved for the system Trash. 47 new tests.
