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.

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.

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.

WriteOperation replaces free-form operation strings throughout
BoardWriter, per the settled rule in 02 § Write-failure surfacing: the
banner layer will switch exhaustively over it, so a new operation
without a banner rendering is a compile-time hole. Titles enrich at the
two points a document read makes them known (updateIndex, and the
move/copy pre-flight), so failures after the read name the item;
purge never reads and stays title-less. Free-form English survives
only in the diagnostic reason.
Full suite 300 tests in 56 suites green.

The executable spec for BoardWriter's cross-cutting guarantees, in a
dedicated WriteFidelityTests.swift: minimal-touch verified down to
sibling mtimes across a seven-operation session; renumber pinned as
the sole exception (whole lane rewritten, board root / other lanes /
tombstones untouched); delete→restore byte-precise (only the modified
line differs, zero tombstone residue); unknown-key order preserved
with keys interleaved among schema-owned ones; and a composite
building a board purely through the writer, hand-editing a file like
an agent would, then moving/copying/deleting/renumbering to a
zero-warning reload. Guarantees already pinned by the per-operation
suites (atomicity, move/copy identity, body round-trip) are
referenced, not duplicated. Shared fixtures promoted to
WriterTestSupport.swift. README gains the write-side feature bullet.
5 new tests; 250 total green. Closes milestone m2-storage-write.
