Gap #9 ruled into 06 ▸ Rules: a board-wholesale operation asked from a
form is both rulings at once, and the form rule wins while the asking
surface is up — create-and-switch answers inline in the sheet's Branch
section, a picker-asked switch at the popover's caption, never both at
once (the sheet dismisses the popover). The banner stays the posture for
whatever outlives the asking surface — the form rule's own fallback
generalized. Banner-only-everywhere weighed and set aside.

Settled from the Redesign Minor card: SHA-256 repos are unsupported,
safely — unopenable ones take the corrupt-repo loud-failure path,
never a silent fall to mode-none; opened ones get hygiene's abstention
by construction (SHA-1 shape filter, empty work list). Recorded in 06.
No code change.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the Redesign Minor card: the hygiene pass never
consolidates, rewrites, or deletes existing packs — one pack per
threshold's worth of objects accrues forever, the never-rewrite
posture's price. Terminal git gc remains the consolidation path.
Recorded in 06. No code change.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the Redesign Minor card: loose-object pack at the 6,700
threshold (git's gc.auto default), 8 s after session activation,
background priority, skipped under contention, at most once per
session, all injectable. Recorded in 06's repo-growth bullet.
No code change.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the Redesign Minor card: identity writes append a plain
[user] section, never editing existing sections or tool-specific
subsections; reads take the last plain-section value, git's own
semantics — so the append always wins without reformatting anything.
Recorded in 06's identity bullet. No code change.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Two Redesign Minor settlements in 06: the popover's name/email fields
re-read repo config at 2 s only while visible (the watcher never
delivers .git, so the resync courtesy needs its own signal; focused
fields keep keystrokes); and the wholesale-bracket failure sentence
now defers to 02's hosted-by-window-of-origin rule — the card window
hosts its own strip, a ⌘Z pressed there fails there.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the Redesign Minor card: popover-asked operations fail
inline at the form; board-wholesale brackets — branch switch and undo
restore named explicitly — fail as banner rows, red one-shot failures
per the same-day banner ruling. A switch's bounded lock wait can
expire long after the popover dismissed. Recorded in 06.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the Redesign Minor card: the stamp clears on successful
abort only. A failed abort keeps it — the stamp is the sole evidence
the leftover is the app's own, and clearing on failure would orphan it
as somebody-else's forever. Recovery retries at next open or the 15 s
paused-state re-read. Recorded in 06. No code change.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the Redesign Minor card: the waiting posture stays calm,
but the wait ends — 30 s (injectable), then the clean-failure path,
tree untouched, lock path named. Only a stale lock ever reaches the
bound; an eternal spinner holding the wholesale bracket is worse.
Recorded in 06's index.lock bullet. No code change.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the Redesign Minor card: no at-HEAD fast path — the
"can't change the tree" proof fails under concurrent writers, and
pending work flushes onto the branch it was made on. One sequence,
no special case; recorded in 06's Branch switching intro. No code
change.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the parked Redesign Minor card, with the user: 02's
hang-avoidance doctrine and 06's ordering guarantee genuinely conflict
at noteWillWrite, and the guarantee wins — rare, bounded, load-bearing,
reentrancy-safe only in the synchronous shape. Full semantic
composition stays on the path: the commit preserving somebody else's
version keeps its real subject. Carve-out recorded in 06.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the Redesign board's Gap card: crossing a restore commit
post-relaunch emits the inverse prefix ("Undo: S" crossed -> "Redo: S")
rather than stacking "Undo: Undo: S". Semantically exact and caps
prefixes at one; cosmetic-only mislabel accepted for foreign commits
whose subjects happen to open with a prefix. Code realign pending in
the restore-subject composer.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Settled from the Redesign board's Gap card: crossing the parentless root
commit could only restore the empty tree, and the root is a baseline,
not a change-set. Undo bottoms out at the initial board state; the
reseed walk stops in the same place. The shipped GitHistoryProvider
already conforms.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
DESIGN/14-git-operations.md distills the settled conclusions from the
pathfinder's AI-ANALYSIS-git-operations.md so pro-m1 has a citable
in-repo source: the forward-restore model (C3/C9 — restores are new
forward commits, never reset, never force; pull's rebase of unpushed
local commits is the one deliberate rewrite), C8 as later design
settled it (no sidecar state, reseed from HEAD's first-parent
ancestry, history browser out of scope with the per-card History
section as the one carve-in), and honest call-outs of the three
leanings 06/07 settled differently (C1 substrate, A1 iCloud dual
mode, B6 cadence-as-divergence-budget). Resolves the corpus's
outstanding git-operations-doc tbd.

2026-07-30 design pass (with the user), superseding the 2026-07-27
two-app split and the 2026-07-29 App Group ruling. Rulings:
- One Mac App Store app (dev.rzen.indie.Kanban, free, 2.0 updates the
existing record); Lanework Pro = auto-renewable subscription (StoreKit
2) unlocking the git tier; libgit2 compiles in dormant. The KanbanPro
target, module-alias tests, verify-editions, UTI/About/Types twins all
retire. Teams stays deferred — probably a separate app, and never on a
shared app group.
- No grandfathering: 1.x's free git users get the inert-.git posture;
unsubscribed and lapsed are one state — histories freeze, resume on
subscribe via the committer's catch-up commit.
- Entitlement = local read of StoreKit's signed transaction store at
board-session composition; never a network call on the open path;
subscribe effective at next open (purchase flow offers reopen); lapse
never interrupts an open session; expiry-while-offline with auto-renew
on holds in grace until a real refresh.
- App Group removed wholesale: registry, clipboard staging, template
store, defaults return to ordinary Application Support; grant slots
collapse to one bookmark, open-now to one flag; freshness stamp,
pid-liveness line, group-id provisioning risk all dissolve.
- Quiet signposts carry over; Settings gains the Pro section (subscribe/
manage/restore) as the third named Pro surface.
12-editions.md rewritten as the tiers doc; edition vocabulary swept to
tiers across 00-13, README, WISHLIST.

2026-07-30 findings-resolution ruling (Redesign card d40bfac1): Finder's
⌥⌘⌫ answered disk-space pressure boards don't have, and it was the one
gesture reaching unrecoverable straight from the board. The delete
vocabulary is now purely staged: board → trash, trash → permanent
(confirmed on no-git boards), Empty Trash for bulk. Docs drop the File
menu row, both ⌥-alternate context rows, and the VO custom action; code
removal rides the session's realign card.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Ruled 2026-07-29: heal-class commits (known in-session by heal-marked EchoLedger receipts) never become undo steps — the stack pointer passes over them and restores exclude heal-owned paths, so ⌘Z never reverts a repair and never re-arms the scheduler; naive acceptance would trap a ⌘Z run on an ever-renewing heal commit, and suppression would create standing invalid states. Post-relaunch reseed stays sidecar-free, so old heal commits bounce once — restore plus fresh heal commit, the fresh one transparent, the run continuing past it. Accepted family-wide; the agent-guide quirk becomes the rule's oldest case.
Board: Gap card b444bc5c → Resolved. Pro-era implementation (pro-m1).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
General ruling (2026-07-29): app-initiated covers every reliably healable repair — unambiguous, content-lossless — because heals are auditable: Pro's separate heal commit is the durable trail, base happens quietly, and a heal that changes user content announces with a warning-tone notice, never a consent gate. The user-gated class stays defined but has no current members. Duplicate-id healing goes silent under Lanework-owns-the-board (free to re-mint UUIDs at will): no condition banner, no Repair button — a scheduled heal remints withheld occurrences (memo-guarded, disk re-verified, no-op on vanished duplicates) and posts "Repaired duplicate id — 'Fix login'". Winner rule unchanged: earlier commit on git boards, filesystem birth date then traversal order without history. 06 keeps the Repair verb as the heal commit's name; 13 moves the remint outside undo with all heals. Dissolves the Repair-has-no-Nexus-row contradiction — no command, no row owed.
Board: Contradictions card ce5e7f60 → Resolved (lane now empty); Implementation card 50ed2b5d (Active) retitled "Dedupe duplicate ids and heal them silently" and realigned mid-flight.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
The 2026-07-29 lanes-trash-too ruling never swept the docs last touched 07-28. 11 ▸ Delete drops "lanes delete physically" for the card-or-lane move (freight-counting confirms in the trash); Delete Immediately widens to any card or lane selection; 06's recoverability exception covers both kinds and drops the retired 13-native-undo citation; 07 reads card and lane deletes; 02's welcome-counts exclusion restates as items in .trash/ (trashed lane subtracts from the lane count, its nested cards from the card count — the sibling Minor's ruling folded in). Context-menu row "Trash cards" renamed "Trash selection" on the same basis.
Board: Contradictions card 89a625bf + Minor card 488dc2c2 → Resolved.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
User ruling on the integrity pass: a scheduled heal's batch never folds into
a commit carrying anyone else's work. The committer's two-commit split gains
a heal class keyed by heal-marked EchoLedger receipts; the composer stays a
pure diff reader and names heal commits from their own diff shape. On-touch
heals ride their host write's commit (the backfilled kind joins the
bookkeeping no-event class), inline heals batch with their gesture, and the
user-gated Repair already commits alone.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
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.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Edition split follow-through: 12-editions.md and 13-native-undo.md join the
corpus; git-era docs (06, 07) are Pro-scoped and cross-references realigned.
Resolution session rulings written in place: caret chords yield to any focused
text control (04, 11); the drop settle holds its proposal as overlay state and
02 gains the overlays family; Duplicate gets the save-panel fallback and a
cancellable copy walk (03); Finder open is a standard document open (02);
failed first opens record before loading with the folder name provisional (02);
trash pointer ranges skip by kind, full-height marquee surface, Select All by
kind, rows-only trashed universe (02, 04); Empty Trash counts entries (03);
create handoff reads as one arrival (02); range-anchor lifecycle, board-
background click grammar, jump landing cards, lane-domain shift-arrows (04);
Reduce Motion restated per voice (10).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
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.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
The detached-HEAD/mid-merge pause named auto-commit, Undo/Redo, and branch
controls but left Pull, Push, and push-on-commit live — against a dirty
tree whose clean-by-pull-time invariant the held auto-commit had falsified.
Settled: the whole surface pauses; the ahead/behind badge keeps counting
since a fetch is a read.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
The trash trio had no verbs — tombstoning and purging both composed
"Delete card 'X'", erasing the moved-to-trash vs gone-forever distinction
the docs ask users to learn. Settled by diff shape alone: deleted:
appearing = Delete, clearing = Restore, item leaving the tree =
Permanently delete; plural folding keeps Empty Trash distinct from a
multi-select delete.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
06 and 10 consumed a per-file app-vs-foreign classifier that 02's component
inventory never named and whose layering prose seemed to deny. Settled: a
new EchoLedger component records each BoardWriter operation's expected
outcome (content hash / absence / move pair); final-content matching
classifies each observed file, deciding both races (byte-identical foreign
write → app-mediated, accepted; same-window foreign overwrite → foreign,
last writer wins). Ledger is in-memory and per-store; launch catch-up is
all-foreign; bracketed operations bypass it. "Trusts its own writes no more
than anyone else's" is scoped to rendering; BoardWriter's no-hidden-state
bullet stands.

Contradictions: v1 gains a minimal Settings pane (⌘,) housing the
restore-at-launch toggle; Window ▸ Welcome to Lanework inventoried in 11.
Gaps: close/quit waits for in-flight bracketed and copy-shaped operations;
pull extends the Edit-session treatment to open raw-source buffers
(signpost + last-writer-wins Apply); File ▸ Duplicate keeps tombstones
(01's "as-is" softened to per-flow exclusions). Minor: Undo routing
promoted to a real heading in 06; 11's dead "10 ▸ Actions" citation
repointed. m3 watcher findings: root-gone cancels armed debounced
delivery; mid-bracket root changes owned by the root-change path;
.git filtered at any depth; banked mid-bracket reconciles and the
200 ms debounce ratified.
- 10 cites 11 for Add Attachment and the lane-width menu items
- 04 uses ⌘/⇧ symbols for click modifiers; card moves scoped to the
⌥⌘ chord; ../WISHLIST.md path fixed
- 03 says stepper (plus the menu pair) in the editing-surfaces table
- 06 says one commit per debounce window
- 03/10 Reduce Motion lists aligned at five items; rubber-band
disambiguated as the lane-resize feedback
- 11 requires the trash shown for Empty Trash
- 02 rewords and-peers
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Fills the gap: Save All applies each raw buffer (a validation failure
cancels the switch, focus on the offender), Discard exits without
writing, Cancel keeps everything. External checkouts remain accepted
last-writer-wins per the dirty-buffer rule.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Fills the gap: pull/push/switch/restore share the auto-committer's lock
posture with a visible waiting state; clean failures are one-shot
banner errors; the never-mutate rule exempts the app's own stamped
leftovers, which it aborts and reports.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Fills the gap: foreign commits — auto-committed agent work and agent
self-commits — push onto the in-session stack as steps, with a
pre-flight HEAD re-sync before every undo/redo. One rule in-session
and across relaunch; arriving commits clear redo.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Fills the gap: restores materialize only the current-vs-target diff, so
untouched Edit sessions are unaffected; a touching restore reuses the
branch-switch Save All / Discard / Cancel step. Redo symmetric;
raw-source buffers follow the branch-switch settle treatment.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Resolves the 01-vs-06 contradiction: the pure-diff composer cannot emit
'Renumber lane X' (order-only bookkeeping composes nothing), and a
renumber never happens alone — it batches with the insert/move that
exhausted the midpoint, so the commit reads as that event. 06's
bookkeeping rule now says sequence-preserving order changes are the
bookkeeping; repositioning order changes still compose Reorder.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
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.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Resolved on the Redesign board: post-renumber Put Back placement is
deterministic but may land among new neighbors; the commit-message
composer deliberately models the reserved labels/assignees/due trio.
