The full bullet list from Implementation card bf080d9a — both ruling
batches, including the three appended mid-session by 16ef377:
- Restore subjects compose the inverse, never nest: crossing "Undo: S"
emits "Redo: S" and vice versa; parity, not stack depth, reads a
legacy double prefix (GitHistoryProvider.restoreSubject).
- Git-operation failures join the one-shot failure banner tier:
BannerCenter.GitFailureBanner (undo/redo/branchSwitch/addGit), error
tone at failure rank merged with write one-shots by recency; the
postLoss compromise is retired at both AppModel wirings.
- order/schema optional below the board root: append-at-end reading
(ordered siblings first, folder-name tie-break among the order-less),
schema reads 1, both coerce-tier logged; the root keeps its
requirements. Ranks.resolvedOrders materializes finite ranks so
models and placement math stay untouched; first Writer rewrite
stamps a real rank on touch, placement against an order-less sibling
stamps that sibling inline in the same bracket. Agent guide v10
teaches optional keys and zero-read filing. Hostile-YAML order
shapes become coercion tests; Fixtures/Valid/optional-keys.kanban
replaces the four retired Malformed boards.
- .gitignore is the relocation-heal noise gate: GitignoreRules pure
matcher (standard semantics, board-root file only), loader consults
it once per walk so matched loose files keep the stray posture;
seeded (.DS_Store + .*.lanework-*) at board creation and template
instantiation, healed in when missing at open — repo-nested
included; empty file honored, existing files never edited; the
committer's obedience via libgit2 status is pinned by test.
- Comments crash-residue sweep gates on step ownership: HistoryStep
derives backing from its own undo expectations, backedContent unions
both stacks, the sweep purges per-entry only what no live step owns.
- Skip-purge decoupled (16ef377): a stale-skipped coarse step strands
whole in NativeHistoryProvider.strandedSteps — still backing, retired
only at session end; clean exits purge as before.
- Coarse close step named "Changes to '<card>'"; the fine body-edit
wording never leaks onto the board menu.
- Branch-switch settle clears every open card window's fine stack on
Save All and Discard alike; the empty fold registers no coarse step.
- Close flush awaits its covering snapshot (quiesce + one generation
bump, 1s bound), and an explicit flush now queues behind an
in-flight one instead of skipping — the audit-caught interleaving
could lose a close flush permanently when the debounce fired inside
the close sequence; regression tests force both races.
- Commit comment bullets sort chronologically by created, not UUID.
- The production-unwired CardBodyEditSession.editSessionDidChange seam
is deleted with its seam-only tests.
- Composition-root pins: beginSession composes the committer with the
store's own EchoLedger and binds the announcer (the miswire class).
- Deliberate 06 conformance pass over every 2026-07-31-tagged
sentence: fixed Change-custom-key subjects (the retired named
generic was the only producer), the unbuilt Replace attachment
vocabulary, heal commits now authored Lanework Integrity, the config
reader scopes identity to plain [user] sections, add-git re-runs
detection at create (a stale mode-none could initialize inside the
user's repo), and add-git failures answer at the form or the banner.
Structural residue filed on the Redesign board.

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.

03's resettlement reverses the pathfinder carry-over: the
selection-keyed dual presentation proved undesirable, so a card has one
presentation — selection changes styling, never geometry, and the
masonry never reflows on click. Deleted the carousel view (page dots,
glass underlay, scroll-tick monitor), the QuickLook thumbnail cache
(sole consumer), the pure paging/suppression rules, and the
sole-selected animation key — Motion now keys transactions on the
search query and the drop proposal only. The attachment chip stays as
the face's whole attachment story; viewing media is the card window's
job. No carousel state had leaked beyond the view layer.

The design corpus ratified that ranges are part of a sensible reading:
an exact-integer width below 1 now coerces to 1 read-side (bytes
untouched) instead of reading as malformed — the width division must
never see a zero or negative unit — while a non-finite order (.nan,
.inf) is now the same loud malformed-order rejection as a non-numeric
one, guarded at the single point where the double arrives so loader
and Writer inherit it together. The symlink-never-traversed rule
turned out to be already enforced (the loader has filtered symlinks
ahead of the directory check since the first commit); it and the
copy-preserves-the-link-verbatim behavior are now pinned by tests,
alongside the two hostile shapes the corpus names (width: 0,
order: .nan). Five new tests.

The card face becomes real: leading SF Symbol (card default doc.text,
tinted by a valid hand-written iconColor — schema yes, control no),
title or the quiet untitled placeholder, and a quiet paperclip when
the card has attachments — title-only by design, no body excerpt.
Color is the settled K1 edge accent, not a fill: background paints a
4pt stripe down the left edge, resolved through the ported pathfinder
palette (12 icon tints + 12 backgrounds carried over verbatim, plus
raw #RRGGBB[AA]); anything unresolvable paints nothing and stays on
disk exactly as written. The snapshot now carries each card's flat
attachment names — the loader's one read inside a card folder, shared
with the Writer's listing so the m5 carousel and m6 sidebar can never
disagree on order (Finder order, the Writer's existing comparator).
The face keeps its top-aligned structure so the sole-selection
carousel can expand inside the card without moving masonry neighbors.

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.

Accept liberally, emit conservatively (764a4d4): the gate is 8-4-4-4-12
hex in any case and any UUID version — uuidgen and UUID().uuidString
print uppercase, and a strict lowercase gate would silently stray an
agent's standard-tool card. Identity comparison is UUID-value equality
everywhere: ItemID keeps its byte-faithful rawValue but equates and
hashes on the lowercased canonical form, and the writer's
import-boundary collision check canonicalizes, so a same-UUID arrival
spelled in another case remints instead of slipping past. The app still
mints only lowercase v4 and never renames to canonicalize.

The single point through which every mutation becomes a filesystem
operation: read fresh from disk (strict byte-faithful UTF-8), refuse
readable-but-uneditable frontmatter shapes, apply the edit through the
span engine, stamp modified / clear modified-by, then temp-file+rename
atomically. Renumber-visible-children is the sole minimal-touch
exception, tombstones untouched. Structured BoardWriteError carries
operation + path + reason for the future banner surface.
Alongside, three edges the card surfaced:
- The loader now decodes byte-faithfully too, so a BOM'd or non-UTF-8
index.md is rejected at load per the encoding contract, instead of
loading via NSString's silent BOM strip and then refusing every write.
- An appended frontmatter line adopts the file's prevailing line ending
(a CRLF file stays uniformly CRLF when a stamp first lands in it).
- Empty-but-not-blank frontmatter ({}, null, ~) is detected as
uneditable — appending after it would be unparseable YAML.

Only lowercase-hex 8-4-4-4-12 folder names are lane/card candidates;
anything else is a stray — skipped with a distinct warning, never
descended, never able to fail-fast a load. UUID-shaped folders keep the
prior contract (missing index skips, malformed frontmatter fail-fasts).

Pure tree walk: root → lanes → cards, level is position. Fail-fast with
path+reason for bad YAML, missing/malformed schema or order, newer
schema, rootless board; index-less folders skip with a collected+logged
warning; strays, hidden files, and symlinks ignored; board-level
deleted ignored with a warning; tombstones loaded and flagged. 17 tests.
