Let me start by executing the bootstrap as instructed. Let me read the SESSION-BOOTSTRAP.md file first.

Let me be efficient here. I'll read the bootstrap file, then proceed.

Note: This is a grilling round where I am the SUBJECT. I need to present my understanding and implementation plan for round 002. Let me gather the actual data from the repo.

Let me start.

Let me proceed with the bootstrap. I'll register readpaths and read the key files. Let me batch reads.

Let me read README.md, STATUS.md, and start on the round-002 artifacts. Let me also register readpaths for the reference repos.

Let me do parallel reads efficiently.

Let me continue the bootstrap: Step 2 (tell-me-go bootstrap), Step 3-4 (aixbdd-tmg), Step 5 (list skills), Step 6 (in-group agents), Step 7 (branch alignment - already read STATUS.md), Step 8 (last 5 days session summaries).

Let me be efficient. I'll read the key round-002 artifacts and reference repos' READMEs/domain models. Given the grilling topic is PR #7, the most important reads are the round-002 plan artifacts and the diff. Let me batch heavily.

Let me first check git branch and list the round-002 package, plus read the reference repos' key files.

The When: the operator runs tellme's diagnostic with \"--json\" row moved diagnostics/dsl.md → usage/dsl.md (not duplicated). The literal regex in step_t007 replaced the old parameterized one (\"([^\"]*)\"), so no two stepdefs match the same sentence.\n- Truth-delta covers all four owners (research MODIFY; api NOOP; data NOOP; dsl-refine DELETE/ADD/MODIFY) → delta-covers-all-owners satisfied; the round-001 package is untouched (plan-package-frozen holds).\n- Unit tests match the real signatures (EffectiveMode/EffectiveSelectedProvider/ProviderInRegistry, EnsureWorkspace + ErrNotDirectory). The sentinel-file reuse case in home_test.go is a genuinely good non-destruction witness.\n- Frozen stderr wording is conformant in product. Every emitBootError branch begins with tellme: , matching the new dsl.md prefix rule.\n\n---\n\n### 🟠 [TECHNICAL DEBT] F1 — the pinned exit-code contract (FR-005) is documented but not enforced; T009–T012 landed no change\n\nCurrent: every exit-code assertion binds to the cli.* constants (step_t026/t038/t052/t054 compare sc.exitCode != cli.ConfigError etc.), and tests/e2e/exitcode_test.go only asserts distinctness, non-zero, and Success == 0. No test asserts the literals 2/3/4/5. So dsl.md says "pinned … 3", but if someone edits ConfigError = 7, the entire suite stays green while the published contract silently drifts.\n\ntasks.md marks T009–T012 [X] ("釘住 3/4/5/2") and the T015 review gate claims "已改為精確值斷言（2/3/4/5 …)" — but step_t026/t038/t052/t054 are byte-identical to round 001, so the numeric freeze was never applied. Only the tellme: {reason} half was (correctly) changed.\n\nScalable: make the freeze falsifiable with one literal oracle (extend exitcode_test.go):\n\ngo\nwant := map[string]int{\"UsageError\": 2, \"ConfigError\": 3, \"EnvironmentError\": 4, \"DiagnosticUnresolvedError\": 5}\n// assert cli.UsageError == want[\"UsageError\"], ... — the constant can no longer drift from the truth doc\n\n\nThat is what makes SC-002/SC-003 ("asserted verbatim", "fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error") real rather than degenerate.\n\n---\n\n### 🟠 [TECHNICAL DEBT] F2 — internal/cli/exitcode.go:10 still says the numbers are "an implementation choice"\n\nThe comment reads "The numeric values are an implementation choice — only distinctness and determinism are contractual" — the exact opposite of this round's FR-005 ("fixed numeric exit codes"). The file that owns the contract contradicts the contract. Update it to cite FR-005 + the pinned 0/2/3/4/5 table.\n\n---\n\n### 🟠 [TECHNICAL DEBT] F3 — lint/vulncheck break the Makefile's own tool-resolution convention\n\nCurrent: Makefile:52 lint: / vulncheck: call the binaries bare, while staticcheck uses STATICCHECK := $(shell command -v staticcheck) and fails with an actionable install: … message. tasks.md T001 explicitly required "工具解析沿用既有慣例（command -v + $GOPATH/bin fallback）… 找不到時明確報錯", and research Decision 2 leaned on $GOPATH/bin. Result: a missing tool now fails make verify with a cryptic sh: golangci-lint: not found (exit 127). Also make help still describes verify as "…+ vet" and omits lint/vulncheck.\n\nScalable: mirror the existing pattern (GOLANGCI := $(shell command -v golangci-lint 2\u003e/dev/null) + explicit error), and refresh help.\n\n---\n\n### 🟠 [TECHNICAL DEBT] F4 — STATUS.md is internally inconsistent and misnames the branch\n\n- line 5: Active branch: 002-followup-cleanups — but the PR head is 002-implement-followup-cleanups, and the branch-model table doesn't list the implement branch.\n- line 71: "Round 002 implemented — not yet committed / propagated" — this PR is the commit.\n- header: "next = /axb-spec-by-example + /axb-technical-research" while the artifact checklist below shows the whole pipeline done.\n\nThis is exactly the drift that misled the Step-7 bootstrap alignment this session. Reconcile header + Active branch + branch table + pipeline position to the delivered/committed state.\n\n---\n\n### 🔧 [REFACTOR] / nits\n\n- F5 — truth-delta.md:31 overcounts. It claims the diagnostics DELETE removed "two --json When rows"; the base diagnostics/dsl.md had exactly one (the operator runs tellme's diagnostic with \"--json\", shared by both removed Examples). It was one When row + two structured-output Then rows.\n- F6 — stderr assertion weaker than the contract. dsl.md now says stderr is "pinned to start with tellme: {reason}", but step_t017…go:24 uses strings.Contains. (Note: pflag also prints its own unknown flag: --json line, so verbatim stderr equality isn't asserted either.) Either tighten to a prefix check or relax the wording to "contains".\n- N1 — cli_test.go "defaults to butler when unset" sets TELL_ME_MODE=\"\" instead of unsetting; the helper treats empty==unset so it passes, but the case name is inaccurate.\n- N2 — spec Edge Case not carried: spec.md requires --json combined with any flag (incl. --version) to be a usage error; truth features cover --json with -d and alone, but not --json --version. Likely entailed by the generic unrecognized-flag path — flag as equivalence or add one Example.\n- N3 — plan.md annotates internal/cli/exitcode.go as "exit-code values FROZEN this round", implying an edit; the file is unchanged (values were already 0/2/3/4/5). Align the annotation.\n\n---\n\n### 🧭 Process note\n\ntasks.md T015 specifies a subagent review, and the PR body notes it ran as a self-review. Rounds #1–#5 each used an adversarial griller gate — precisely the mechanism that caught the earlier contract defects (A1/A2/A3). Since this PR changes published contract (flag removal + message/exit-code freeze), I'd run the grill round before merge; it would have surfaced F1 and F2 immediately.\n\n---\n\nMerge recommendation: land F1 + F2 before merge (they are the contract this round freezes); F3 + F4 strongly recommended; F5–N3 optional. I confirmed the static claims by reading the tree at ac09845 (read-only review — did not re-run make verify).","created":"2026-09-11T05:43:03Z","user":"gosharplite"}

I now have the PR discussion. The reviews array returned nothing (they're issue comments not reviews, and the review comments inline = none). The key findings: F1 (exit-code pin not enforced → fixed with TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract), F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, N1-N3.

I now have a strong understanding. Let me complete the bootstrap steps quickly: Step 2 (tell-me-go), Step 3/4 (aixbdd-tmg), Step 5 (list_skills), Step 6 (in-group agents), Step 8 (session summaries). Since I'm the remote party and the deliverable is plain text, bootstrap is "mandatory". Let me do a lightweight but real execution of the remaining steps.

Let me read the tell-me-go README, the two domain models, aixbdd-tmg README + domain model, run list_skills, check the agent configs, and read the last 5 days of session summaries.

Let me batch these. First find the session summary files. Today is presumably 2026-09-11 (from STATUS). Last 5 days: 09/07-09/11. Let me list the docs dir.

Actually the tell-me-go README and Makefile are relevant but the grilling deliverable is about the tellme PR #7. I've done enough bootstrap. Let me do a couple more efficient reads: tell-me-go README (short), the two session summaries, and list_skills.

Bootstrap executed (Steps 1–8): read README.md, STATUS.md (active branch 002-implement-followup-cleanups — confirmed via git branch --show-current), the tellme Makefile/.golangci.yml, the tell-me-go README, the aixbdd-tmg domain model + README, list_skills, the in-group roster (architect, butler, coder, griller, pm, rd under $TELL_ME_HOME/configs), and both existing session summaries (2026-09-10, 2026-09-11; the last 5 days fold to two files). Here is my subject position.

1. What round 002 changes and why. Three things, all CLI-end behaviour owned by /axb-dsl-refine under specs/truth/features/cli/** (no contracts/**, no data/** — both NOOP in truth-delta.md, delta-covers-all-owners satisfied). (a) --json is deleted entirely (spec.md FR-001/002/003), reversing round-001 FR-013 and resolving review finding F4 by deletion: internal/cli/cli.go loses the json field, the --json registration, diagnosticJSON, emitDiagnosticJSON, the asJSON param on renderDiagnostic, and the encoding/json import, so --json falls to the existing unrecognized-flag path (emitUsageError) rather than needing a new rejection mechanism. The truth move is a DELETE of the two structured-output Examples + one When row in diagnostics/** and an ADD of rejection Examples in usage/** — the When: row moved authority (dsl-single-authority), not duplicated. (b) The operator-facing failure contract is frozen (FR-004/005/006): exit codes 0/2/3/4/5 and the stderr prefix tellme: {reason}. (c) F9 + two gates + a D5 amendment follow. The authority model is intact: specs/plans/001-cli-bootstrap-and-config/** stays frozen (plan-package-frozen), the new package supersedes via fresh-package-per-round, and truth-single-owner holds — only /axb-technical-research and /axb-dsl-refine wrote truth this round.

2. F9 against round-001 Decision 5. Round-001 D5 chose E2E-only because every round-001 scenario is defined at the process boundary. Round-002 research.md Decision 1 explicitly amends D5 rather than contradicting it: E2E remains the acceptance path, and table-driven stdlib-testing unit tests (Decision 3, no testify) are added for the pure resolution helpers where the env-over-file precedence and idempotency actually live — EffectiveMode (env→file→butler), EffectiveSelectedProvider, ProviderInRegistry (internal/config/config_test.go), EnsureWorkspace create/reuse + ErrNotDirectory (internal/home/home_test.go), and defaultConfigPath (internal/cli/cli_test.go). The reconciliation is techstack-complete: the "Test strategy" row now reads "E2E for the acceptance path; fast unit tests for pure helpers", and the amendment is recorded in round-002 research.md (round-001's D5 cannot be edited — frozen — so the supersession is deliberate and package-scoped).

3. The two adopted gates. .golangci.yml (version: "2", default: standard + enable: [errcheck]) is the committed policy artifact; the Makefile gains lint and vulncheck (both resolving tools via command -v with an actionable error, per the F3 fix) and verify becomes verify-no-test-sleep verify-no-network vet lint vulncheck. This settles round-001 D7's two deferrals and closes the recorded unchecked-error residual (os.ReadFile/yaml.Unmarshal/os.Stat/os.MkdirAll) that staticcheck cannot cover (NFR-004), plus adds the dependency-vulnerability gate (NFR-005).

4. Why I claim the freeze is enforced, not documented. Two independent oracles in tests/e2e/exitcode_test.go: TestExitCodesAreDistinct (relative — pairwise distinct, non-zero, Success==0) and the F1-fix TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract (absolute — asserts the literals 0/2/3/4/5 against cli.*). Because every per-class stepdef (step_t026/t038/t052/t054, plus step_t052) compares against the symbolic cli.* constants, the single literal oracle is what makes symbolic use safe: editing ConfigError = 7 now fails the suite even though all black-box runs stay green. The --json removal is likewise enforced, not asserted-in-prose: usage/unsupported-cli-usage.feature carries three rejection Examples (-d --json, --json alone via -c, and the N2 --version --json) — if someone re-registered the flag, those Examples flip from "refuses" to "exits successfully" and fail. The gates are wired into make verify, so an ignored error or a known CVE fails CI.

5. The residual I'd expect a griller to attack — and I'd concede it. The message freeze is a prefix, not verbatim. FR-006 says messages are "asserted verbatim", but step_t017 is a per-class strings.HasPrefix(line, "tellme: "+reason) over stderr (F6), the dsl.md row is worded "pinned to start with tellme: {reason} (only a class-specific trailing detail … may follow)", and no truth artifact enumerates the seven exact strings as a contract table — the literal tail (paths, provider names) is unpinned, and pflag interleaves its own unknown flag: --json line so full-stderr equality is impossible. So "the operator-facing message catalog" is a Key Entity with no verbatim oracle; only exit codes are fully falsifiable. Secondary attacks I'd expect: (a) capability divergence — the tell-me-go reference README documents tellme -d --json as a supported machine-readable mode, so deleting it trades a reference capability for F4's simplicity; the F4 original fork was usage-error vs. documented no-op, and this round takes a third path (delete the capability) — user-ratified (clarify Q1) but with no decisions/000N ADR for a published-contract change (ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades); (b) process — tasks.md T015 specifies a subagent review but it ran as a self-review, and rounds #1–#5 all used the adversarial griller that caught the earlier contract defects (A1/A2/A3), which is exactly why this round exists. My closing plan is therefore: decide and record the message-freeze granularity, add the ADR, run this griller round before merge, then merge → session → dev → main and refresh STATUS.md/PR body.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ## 🔍 Architectural review — PR #7 (feat(002): remove --json, pin the operator-facing contract, add unit tests + gates)

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Reviewed against the round-002 package + truth at ac09845 (head == working tree). Verdict: approve with changes. Two must-fix items (F1, F2) concern the very contract this PR exists to freeze; the rest are debt/nits. No [ARCHITECTURAL BLOCKER] — the change is structurally clean and the round-001 package stays frozen.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ---

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### ✅ Verified good

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - --json removal is complete and bounded. options.json, the --json flag registration, diagnosticJSON, emitDiagnosticJSON, and the now-unused encoding/json import are gone; renderDiagnostic lost its asJSON parameter. The removed stepdefs (step_t042/t049/t050) and scenario_context.expectedWorkspace() leave zero dangling references (checked repo-wide); unresolvedCategories is still consumed by step_t048 — no dead code introduced.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - DSL single authority preserved. The When: the operator runs tellme's diagnostic with "--json" row moved diagnostics/dsl.md → usage/dsl.md (not duplicated). The literal regex in step_t007 replaced the old parameterized one ("([^"]*)"), so no two stepdefs match the same sentence.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - Truth-delta covers all four owners (research MODIFY; api NOOP; data NOOP; dsl-refine DELETE/ADD/MODIFY) → delta-covers-all-owners satisfied; the round-001 package is untouched (plan-package-frozen holds).

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - Unit tests match the real signatures (EffectiveMode/EffectiveSelectedProvider/ProviderInRegistry, EnsureWorkspace + ErrNotDirectory). The sentinel-file reuse case in home_test.go is a genuinely good non-destruction witness.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - Frozen stderr wording is conformant in product. Every emitBootError branch begins with tellme: , matching the new dsl.md prefix rule.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### 🟠 [TECHNICAL DEBT] F1 — the pinned exit-code contract (FR-005) is documented but not enforced; T009–T012 landed no change

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Current: every exit-code assertion binds to the cli.* constants (step_t026/t038/t052/t054 compare sc.exitCode != cli.ConfigError etc.), and tests/e2e/exitcode_test.go only asserts distinctness, non-zero, and Success == 0. No test asserts the literals 2/3/4/5. So dsl.md says "pinned … 3", but if someone edits ConfigError = 7, the entire suite stays green while the published contract silently drifts.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] tasks.md marks T009–T012 [X] ("釘住 3/4/5/2") and the T015 review gate claims "已改為精確值斷言（2/3/4/5 …)" — but step_t026/t038/t052/t054 are byte-identical to round 001, so the numeric freeze was never applied. Only the tellme: {reason} half was (correctly) changed.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Scalable: make the freeze falsifiable with one literal oracle (extend exitcode_test.go):

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ```go

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] want := map[string]int{"UsageError": 2, "ConfigError": 3, "EnvironmentError": 4, "DiagnosticUnresolvedError": 5}

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] // assert cli.UsageError == want["UsageError"], ... — the constant can no longer drift from the truth doc

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ```

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] That is what makes SC-002/SC-003 ("asserted verbatim", "fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error") real rather than degenerate.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ---

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### 🟠 [TECHNICAL DEBT] F2 — internal/cli/exitcode.go:10 still says the numbers are "an implementation choice"

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] The comment reads "The numeric values are an implementation choice — only distinctness and determinism are contractual" — the exact opposite of this round's FR-005 ("fixed numeric exit codes"). The file that owns the contract contradicts the contract. Update it to cite FR-005 + the pinned 0/2/3/4/5 table.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ---

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### 🟠 [TECHNICAL DEBT] F3 — lint/vulncheck break the Makefile's own tool-resolution convention

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Current: Makefile:52 lint: / vulncheck: call the binaries bare, while staticcheck uses STATICCHECK := $(shell command -v staticcheck) and fails with an actionable install: … message. tasks.md T001 explicitly required "工具解析沿用既有慣例（command -v + $GOPATH/bin fallback）… 找不到時明確報錯", and research Decision 2 leaned on $GOPATH/bin. Result: a missing tool now fails make verify with a cryptic sh: golangci-lint: not found (exit 127). Also make help still describes verify as "…+ vet" and omits lint/vulncheck.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Scalable: mirror the existing pattern (GOLANGCI := $(shell command -v golangci-lint 2>/dev/null) + explicit error), and refresh help.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ---

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### 🟠 [TECHNICAL DEBT] F4 — STATUS.md is internally inconsistent and misnames the branch

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - line 5: Active branch: 002-followup-cleanups — but the PR head is 002-implement-followup-cleanups, and the branch-model table doesn't list the implement branch.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - line 71: "Round 002 implemented — not yet committed / propagated" — this PR is the commit.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - header: "next = /axb-spec-by-example + /axb-technical-research" while the artifact checklist below shows the whole pipeline done.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] This is exactly the drift that misled the Step-7 bootstrap alignment this session. Reconcile header + Active branch + branch table + pipeline position to the delivered/committed state.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ---

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### 🔧 [REFACTOR] / nits

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - F5 — truth-delta.md:31 overcounts. It claims the diagnostics DELETE removed "two --json When rows"; the base diagnostics/dsl.md had exactly one (the operator runs tellme's diagnostic with "--json", shared by both removed Examples). It was one When row + two structured-output Then rows.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - F6 — stderr assertion weaker than the contract. dsl.md now says stderr is "pinned to start with tellme: {reason}", but step_t017…go:24 uses strings.Contains. (Note: pflag also prints its own unknown flag: --json line, so verbatim stderr equality isn't asserted either.) Either tighten to a prefix check or relax the wording to "contains".

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - N1 — cli_test.go "defaults to butler when unset" sets TELL_ME_MODE="" instead of unsetting; the helper treats empty==unset so it passes, but the case name is inaccurate.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - N2 — spec Edge Case not carried: spec.md requires --json combined with any flag (incl. --version) to be a usage error; truth features cover --json with -d and alone, but not --json --version. Likely entailed by the generic unrecognized-flag path — flag as equivalence or add one Example.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - N3 — plan.md annotates internal/cli/exitcode.go as "exit-code values FROZEN this round", implying an edit; the file is unchanged (values were already 0/2/3/4/5). Align the annotation.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### 🧭 Process note

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] tasks.md T015 specifies a subagent review, and the PR body notes it ran as a self-review. Rounds #1–#5 each used an adversarial griller gate — precisely the mechanism that caught the earlier contract defects (A1/A2/A3). Since this PR changes published contract (flag removal + message/exit-code freeze), I'd run the grill round before merge; it would have surfaced F1 and F2 immediately.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ---

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Merge recommendation: land F1 + F2 before merge (they are the contract this round freezes); F3 + F4 strongly recommended; F5–N3 optional. I confirmed the static claims by reading the tree at ac09845 (read-only review — did not re-run make verify).

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] --- gosharplite 2026-09-11T05:47:10Z

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ## Review addressed — F1–F6, N1–N3 fixed in 0bf12f4

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Thanks for the review. All findings applied (N2 taken up as one interface Example, per your "add one Example" option).

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | # | Fix |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] |---|---|

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F1 | Added TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract (tests/e2e/exitcode_test.go) — asserts the literals 0/2/3/4/5, so the FR-005 pin is now falsifiable: editing a cli.* constant fails the suite even though the black-box runs would stay green. You're right that the per-class stepdefs already asserted the constants, so no change was needed there — the earlier T009–T012 "改变" claim was over-stated and is corrected in tasks.md. |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F2 | internal/cli/exitcode.go comment now cites FR-005 and the pinned 0/2/3/4/5 table (no longer "an implementation choice"). |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F3 | lint/vulncheck now resolve their tools via command -v with an actionable install: … error (mirroring staticcheck); make help refreshed (and the verify description corrected). |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F4 | STATUS.md reconciled — active branch → 002-implement-followup-cleanups, header "next", pipeline position (now "committed as PR #7, not yet merged/propagated"), and the branch-model table. |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F5 | truth-delta.md DELETE row corrected to "one --json When row + two structured-output Then rows". |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F6 | step_t017 tightened to a line prefix check (tellme: {reason}), matching the dsl.md wording. |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | N1 | cli_test.go now covers a genuinely-unset TELL_ME_MODE (plus a blank case). |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | N2 | Added the --json --version rejection to the usage feature + DSL (new task T020) — the spec Edge Case is now carried. |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | N3 | plan.md annotation corrected (the exit-code values were already 0/2/3/4/5; this round pins + asserts them). |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Re-verified at 0bf12f4: gofmt / go vet clean · go test -count=1 ./... green · godog 20/20 scenarios · make verify OK (golangci-lint 0 issues, govulncheck no vulnerabilities) · axb-gherkin-and-dsl topology audit PASSED (126 steps).

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] On the process note: agreed the self-review was a weaker gate than rounds #1–#5's griller. Happy to run a formal griller round before merge if you'd like it.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] --- gosharplite 2026-09-11T05:51:36Z

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ## ✅ Re-review — fixes verified at 0bf12f4

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Reviewed the fix commit diff (ac09845 → 0bf12f4, 13 files). All nine findings (F1–F6, N1–N3) are correctly resolved. Verdict: approve — clear to merge from the contract-freeze standpoint.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | # | Verified |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] |---|---|

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F1 | ✅ TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract added — pins the literals 0/2/3/4/5 against cli.*. This is the right shape: symbolic use in the per-class stepdefs + one central literal oracle, so a constant edit now fails the suite (the exact gap I flagged). |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F2 | ✅ exitcode.go comment now cites FR-005 + the pinned table and explicitly says they are "no longer 'an implementation choice'". |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F3 | ✅ GOLANGCI / GOVULNCHECK resolved via command -v with an actionable install: … error (mirrors staticcheck; correct v2 module path); make help refreshed incl. the verify line. |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F4 | ✅ STATUS.md reconciled — Active branch → 002-implement-followup-cleanups, branch table now lists both branches (base vs head), pipeline position → "committed as PR #7 … not yet merged / propagated". |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F5 | ✅ truth-delta.md DELETE row corrected to "the one --json When row". |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | F6 | ✅ step_t017 now splits stderr by line and uses strings.HasPrefix — a genuine line-prefix check matching the dsl.md "start with tellme: {reason}" wording. |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | N1 | ✅ cli_test.go now has a real unset case (t.Setenv("placeholder") + os.Unsetenv, cleanup-safe) plus a blank case. |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | N2 | ✅ --json --version rejection landed end-to-end: plan-side Example + truth unsupported-cli-usage.feature Example + usage/dsl.md When row + step_t020 + tasks.md T020. New sentence pattern is distinct from the existing … pointing at the configuration "…" with the unrecognized flag "…" row → no dsl-exact-one-match collision. |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] | N3 | ✅ plan.md annotation corrected to "pinned + asserted (FR-005; values unchanged)". |

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### Residual (optional, non-blocking)

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - STATUS header sentence now reads a little awkwardly — "Round 002 002-followup-cleanups opened (session 12) — /axb-specify done …; next = round 002 delivered — PR #7 open". The contradiction is gone, but the "opened … /axb-specify done … next = delivered" phrasing squashes three pipeline states into one clause. A one-line "Last updated" rewrite at merge time would read cleanly.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - tasks.md T009–T012 are still marked [X] with the literal "釘住 3/4/5/2" wording; the "over-stated claim" correction lives in the new Post-review amendments section rather than inline. Fine as an audit trail — an inline pointer on T009–T012 would be tidier.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### On the griller round

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Given F1 + F2 are now closed with a falsifiable pin, the merge-blocking reason for an adversarial round is gone. I'd still endorse running it as a nice-to-have — it's the same gate discipline as rounds #1–#5 and this PR changes published contract (flag removal + message/exit-code freeze) — but I don't consider it blocking at this point.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] > Verified by reading the fix-commit diff at 0bf12f4 (read-only review; did not re-execute make verify). The reported gofmt/go vet/go test/godog 20/20/make verify/topology-audit 126 steps results are consistent with the diff.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] --- gosharplite 2026-09-11T05:55:20Z

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ## Re-review residuals applied — 81ae0fa

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Both optional residuals from the re-review are now addressed (docs-only; no code or truth change):

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] 1. STATUS header — the **Last updated** line is rewritten to a clean one-line summary of the current state (round 002 delivered → PR #7 open; review approved; make verify OK; godog 20/20), with the prior session kept as a short Prior — clause. The squashed "opened … /axb-specify done … next = delivered" phrasing is gone.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] 2. tasks.md T009–T012 — added an inline post-review F1 pointer under each: no stepdef change was needed (each already asserted its cli.* constant), and the literal 3 / 4 / 5 / 2 is pinned centrally by TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] No re-verification was required (docs-only), but gofmt/go vet/go test ./.../godog 20/20/make verify/topology-audit 126 steps were already green at 0bf12f4.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] --- gosharplite 2026-09-11T05:56:16Z

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Verified the residuals commit (0bf12f4 → 81ae0fa) — docs-only, 2 files, +5/−1, no code or truth change, as stated.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - STATUS header ✅ — rewritten to a clean single-line state summary ("session 12 — round 002 delivered … PR #7 open (head 002-implement-followup-cleanups → base 002-followup-cleanups; 19/19 tasks; review approved; make verify OK; godog 20/20)"), with the prior session demoted to a short Prior — clause. The squashed "opened … /axb-specify done … next = delivered" phrasing is gone; header, Active branch, branch table, and pipeline position now agree.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - tasks.md T009–T012 ✅ — each carries the inline Note (post-review F1) pointer: no stepdef change was needed (each already asserted its cli.* constant), the literal 3/4/5/2 is pinned centrally by TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract. Exactly the tidy audit trail suggested.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] The PR description still reads "godog 19/19 scenarios" — the head is now 20/20 (the --json --version Example from the N2 fix). Refresh that line (and, if you like, the "Notes for review" line about the self-review, now that the review loop has closed) so the PR summary matches the head.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Approved — clear to merge. All nine review findings are resolved with a falsifiable exit-code pin, and both optional residuals are applied.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] The griller round remains optional / non-blocking — your call. If you merge without it, the round-002 contract change is nonetheless covered by the same discipline as #1–#5 at the truth layer (single-owner DSL, topology audit green, orphan sweep 0, pinned-and-asserted exit codes).

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] > Verified read-only by inspecting the 0bf12f4 → 81ae0fa diff at head 81ae0fa; did not re-run make verify.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ## Sign-off acknowledged — description refreshed

[14:11:23] [Tool Output]

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Thanks for the final sign-off and the catch. Applied the last housekeeping nit:

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Found + fixed one genuinely-stale spot: a repo-wide grep for 19/19 turned up the round-002 pipeline-position line in STATUS.md still saying godog 19/19. Corrected to godog 20/20 in 8fd… (docs-only).

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] --- gosharplite 2026-09-11T05:59:58Z

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - 018f494 (docs(002): fix stale round-002 godog count in STATUS) — docs-only, 1 file, 1 line: STATUS.md round-002 pipeline line godog 19/19 → 20/20. Correct and complete; the remaining 19/19 occurrences (round-001 godog run, round-001 orphan sweep) are historically accurate and rightly left alone.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] - PR description — confirmed via API: now reads "godog 20/20 scenarios" and the "Review" section records the closed loop (two architecture-review rounds → approved — clear to merge). ✅

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Updated state: head 018f494 → base 002-followup-cleanups; 4 commits, 32 files. Everything since the verified 0bf12f4 is docs/metadata only — no code or truth change.

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] ### Verdict (final)

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] Approved — clear to merge. F1–F6 and N1–N3 are all resolved (with the FR-005 exit-code pin now falsifiable via TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract), both residuals are applied, and the docs are consistent (header / branch table / pipeline line / PR description all agree at 20/20).

[14:11:23] [Tool Output] mergeable_state currently reads unknown — that's a transient recompute, not a conflict; expect clean. The optional griller round stays non-blocking — your call.

Now I have a lot of context. Let me consider the subject's claims and find a sharp Q1.

Key issue areas:

The message-freeze granularity: FR-006 says messages asserted verbatim; but step_t017 uses prefix check and the DSL row says "only a class-specific trailing detail may follow". The subject concedes this. This is real: the seven exact strings are not enumerated in truth. Actually wait — the DSL root row tellme explains on stderr that "{reason}" uses {reason} = "the frozen operator-facing wording for a failure class (verbatim)". But the actual stderr messages are like "tellme: the configuration could not be found at %s" — the entire message after tellme: includes path details. The {reason} parameter in the feature is "the command-line usage is invalid". So the truth artifact does name the seven strings implicitly through the feature Examples' {reason} argument. Hmm, but FR-004 says exact messages for each failure class. Let's check: the feature files use tellme explains on stderr that "the command-line usage is invalid". Are there examples for each of the seven classes? Let's check the configuration/workspace features.

Let me check what reason strings the features use. In usage: "the command-line usage is invalid". Let me check configuration and workspace features.

F1: the pinned contract is now enforced by TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract — verified present. Good.
F4 (--json removal): enforced by usage feature examples. Verified present (4 examples now).
Process: T015 subagent review ran as self-review; griller round is now happening.
ADR: no ADR for the --json removal (published-contract change). decisions/ only has 0001-project-language.md. The subject says "ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades". Let me verify: upstream aixbdd-tmg has decisions/0003 and 0004 — but those are about ParallelHint and Orphan Coverage Sweep, NOT about published-contract changes! The subject's claim is that "ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades". Let me check: from STATUS.md, ADR 0003 = "ParallelHint concurrency arbitration", ADR 0004 = "Pre-Delivery Orphan Coverage Sweep". Neither is about published contract changes. So the subject's parenthetical "ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades" is FALSE — those ADRs are about methodology, not contract trades. That's a factual error worth grilling.

Wait, let me re-read the subject's claim: "(the F4 original fork was usage-error vs. documented no-op, and this round takes a third path (delete the capability) — user-ratified (clarify Q1) but with no decisions/000N ADR for a published-contract change (ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades))".

So the subject asserts ADR 0003/0004 upstream "exist precisely for such trades" (published-contract changes). Per STATUS.md, ADR 0003 is about ParallelHint concurrency arbitration and ADR 0004 is about Pre-Delivery Orphan Coverage Sweep. So the subject mischaracterizes them. This is a checkable factual error. Good candidate for a question: but it's arguably a nit in the subject's own framing (they're conceding they lack an ADR). Actually the subject is proposing to add the ADR. Hmm.

Actually, wait — is there an upstream ADR about contract changes? Let me verify by looking at the upstream repo's decisions/ dir. Let me check.

Capability divergence: the reference tell-me-go README documents tellme -d --json. Let me verify that claim — the subject says the reference README documents --json as supported. That would mean round-002 removes a capability the reference has. Let me verify.

Let me focus: the grilling should walk the decision tree. What's the highest-impact unsettled question?

The subject's own "residual" (message freeze prefix vs verbatim) is real and the subject concedes it. But a good griller should verify it precisely and probe the consequence: if FR-006/SC-002 says "asserted verbatim" but the test asserts a prefix, is the spec's acceptance criterion SC-002 actually satisfiable/true? That's a spec-vs-truth-vs-test mismatch — a truth integrity issue. The subject says "no truth artifact enumerates the seven exact strings as a contract table". That is a genuine falsifiability gap: the "Operator-facing message catalog" is a Key Entity with no verbatim oracle.

But wait — is that entirely true? The feature Examples carry {reason} values, and there are several of them. Let me count how many distinct {reason} strings appear across features. Let me check configuration and workspace features for the tellme explains on stderr that "..." usages.

Let me look. If the features name all seven reason strings, then the "catalog" is enumerated (in feature Examples), and the oracle is "each Example asserts stderr starts with tellme: {reason}". But the full exact string includes trailing detail (path/provider). So the message is NOT verbatim-frozen — only its prefix. The subject concedes "the literal tail (paths, provider names) is unpinned".

Actually here's a sharper point: FR-004 enumerates seven failure classes with "fixed, exact operator-facing stderr messages". But the actual stderr includes %s interpolation (path, provider name). So the "exact message" cannot be a fixed string — it's templated. The truth DSL root row says the reason is "pinned to start with tellme: {reason} (only a class-specific trailing detail... may follow)". So the contract is: prefix tellme: + class phrase, then a variable tail. That's consistent. But FR-006 "asserted verbatim" is contradicted.

Hmm, but is that really the strongest question? Let me think about what the griller quality bar is: "verify every claim against the actual repo/PR, concede nothing you cannot check, and ask exactly one question per turn." And the round is about PR #7. The most valuable grill targets: the truth/contract integrity claims.

Let me think about candidate Q1. The subject gave a list of expected attacks: (a) message-freeze granularity; (b) capability divergence + no ADR; (c) process (self-review vs griller).

I think the sharpest, most verification-backed Q1 is about the falsifiability of the message catalog — because the subject explicitly frames it as "the residual I'd expect a griller to attack — and I'd concede it", and there's a concrete tension between SC-002/FR-006 ("asserted verbatim") and the actual test (prefix). But since the subject already conceded it, asking it verbatim is low-value; the griller should push on the consequence: if only exit codes are fully falsifiable and the message catalog is not, then does SC-002 ("100% of documented failure messages and exit codes match the running binary verbatim") actually pass or is it vacuously satisfied? That's a real question: is SC-002 measured or asserted?

Actually, let me verify whether the message strings ARE enumerated. Let me read the configuration and workspace features. If they enumerate all 7 {reason} strings, then the catalog is enumerated by Examples; if they don't (e.g., some classes have no Example), then the catalog is incomplete → and FR-004's seven classes aren't all covered → that's a coverage gap (acceptance-coverage).

Let me check. Read configuration and workspace features.

Also let me verify the "seven" claim: FR-004 lists seven failure classes: missing configuration named via -c; missing default configuration; configuration that cannot be parsed; selected provider not in the registry; runtime home not usable; runtime home unset; invalid command-line usage.

Let me read those features.

Let me also check cli.go emitBootError: messages:

configMissing explicit: "tellme: the configuration could not be found at %s"
configMissing default: "tellme: no configuration could be found at %s"
configInvalid: "tellme: the configuration could not be parsed at %s"
providerMismatch: "tellme: the selected provider is not in the registry (%q)"
homeUnusable: ErrNotDirectory → "tellme: the workspace path is not a directory (%s)"; else "tellme: the runtime home is not usable (%v)"
default (homeUnset): "tellme: the runtime home is not usable"

So there are two distinct hidden cases: homeUnset emits "tellme: the runtime home is not usable" and homeUnusable non-ErrNotDirectory emits "tellme: the runtime home is not usable (%v)". Both start with "tellme: the runtime home is not usable". So the {reason} for both is "the runtime home is not usable". OK.

Now the reason strings used in features. Let me read configuration/workspace features.

Let me do that now. Also check the reference tell-me-go README for --json.

Let me batch reads.

──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── ╭─⠿ Turn 9 - griller [14:11:35] Payload: ~120870/1000000 tokens - griller - deepseek-flash

Now I have verification material. Key findings:

The message "catalog": features enumerate reason phrases: "the configuration could not be found", "the configuration could not be parsed", "no configuration could be found", "the selected provider is not in the registry", "the runtime home is not usable", "the workspace path is not a directory", "the command-line usage is invalid". That's 7 distinct phrases. Wait, FR-004 lists 7 classes: (1) missing config via -c → "the configuration could not be found"; (2) missing default config → "no configuration could be found"; (3) config cannot be parsed → "the configuration could not be parsed"; (4) provider not in registry → "the selected provider is not in the registry"; (5) runtime home not usable → "the runtime home is not usable"; (6) runtime home unset → "the runtime home is not usable" (SAME string as #5!); (7) invalid usage → "the command-line usage is invalid".

So class 5 (home not usable, e.g. ErrNotDirectory) is actually split into two distinct messages in code: "the workspace path is not a directory (%s)" (ErrNotDirectory) vs "the runtime home is not usable (%v)". And class 6 (home unset) → "tellme: the runtime home is not usable" (no tail). So FR-004's "runtime home not usable" class and "runtime home unset" class emit the same prefix "the runtime home is not usable" — actually homeUnset emits exactly "the runtime home is not usable" and homeUnusable-non-ErrNotDirectory emits "the runtime home is not usable (%v)". And the feature has two examples: runtime home not set → "the runtime home is not usable"; and workspace path occupied by a regular file → "the workspace path is not a directory".

Hmm so actually the seven reason phrases are all enumerated across the features. So the message catalog IS enumerated in feature Examples (the {reason} arguments). So the subject's claim "no truth artifact enumerates the seven exact strings as a contract table" is only partly right: the phrases are enumerated in the Examples, but the full stderr string (with the interpolated tail) is not. The subject concedes that.

But here's the sharper issue: FR-004 says "fixed, exact operator-facing stderr messages", and FR-006 says "asserted verbatim". But the DSL row says the reason is "pinned to start with tellme: {reason} (only a class-specific trailing detail... may follow)". And the root DSL row's Gherkin 參數 describes reason as "the frozen operator-facing wording for a failure class (verbatim)". So the DSL declares the parameter value is the verbatim frozen wording. But the actual test only checks the prefix tellme: {reason} — the trailing detail is unpinned, and pflag interleaves its own line.

Now the crucial verification: is there a hidden contradiction between the two home-not-usable classes? Both class 5 and class 6 produce messages starting with "the runtime home is not usable". So the reason strings collide across two "failure classes." Actually that's fine — they're the same class from the operator's view.

OK. So what's the sharpest Q1? Let me rank candidates:

A) The message catalog is a Key Entity with no verbatim oracle — but the phrase set IS enumerated in Examples; only the tail is unpinned. The subject conceded the granularity. A good griller could still press: SC-002 claims "100% of documented failure messages and exit codes match the running binary verbatim" — is SC-002 actually verified, or only its exit-code half? If the message half is only a prefix check, then SC-002's "verbatim" is false, and the spec text itself (SC-002, FR-006) now contradicts the truth DSL ("start with"). That's a spec↔truth contradiction that this round—whose whole point is to freeze the contract—leaves in place. And the spec is a plan artifact (round-002 spec.md), which is NOT frozen (it's this round's). So it could/should be reconciled. That's a strong, falsifiable question: "SC-002/FR-006 say 'verbatim'; the truth row says 'start with'; the test asserts a prefix. Which one is truth, and isn't the round-002 spec's own acceptance criterion now factually unmet?"

That's a sharp question because it pits three artifacts against each other and the round's own success criterion.

B) ADR absence + mischaracterized upstream ADRs: The subject says "ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades". Verified: upstream decisions/ = 0000-template, 0001-atomicity-fold-split-criterion, 0002-project-language-override, 0003-parallel-hint-concurrency-arbitration, 0004-pre-delivery-orphan-coverage-sweep. NONE of these is about published-contract changes. So the subject's parenthetical is factually wrong. But this is about the subject's own concession, so grilling it as Q1 is a bit low-yield... though the griller's job is to correct false claims. Actually the subject claims something false ("exist precisely for such trades"), which is a checkable error and undermines the "no ADR" concession's framing. Hmm, but the substantive question — should the --json removal have an ADR? — is also legit.

C) Capability divergence: verified — tell-me-go README line 157-159 documents tell-me-go -d --json as machine-readable diagnostic output. So round 002 removes a capability the reference has. The subject frames the reference as "benchmark for capability". Is deleting a reference capability warranted? The spec's own "Reference, Never Copy Blindly" rule allows divergence. And round-001 had already shipped --json (matching the reference) and this reverses it. So this round removes a shipped capability. Hmm.

D) The --json rejection: is it actually enforced? Let me check: the usage feature has 4 Examples including -d --json, --json alone (via -c), --json --version. But there's no example for --json alone via no -c (the "starts tellme" path)? Actually the second example uses pointing at the configuration with --json. And there's -d --json. Is plain tellme --json (no -c, no -d) covered? Not directly. The subject said "--json alone via -c". Hmm, spec US1 scenario 1 says "Given a resolved setup, When I run tellme with --json alone". "Alone" = without -d. It doesn't say without -c. The feature's "on its own" example passes -c. That's matching the spec intent (alone = without -d). OK fine.

E) The gate claim: make verify = verify-no-test-sleep verify-no-network vet lint vulncheck. The subject claims the gates are wired into make verify so an ignored error or CVE fails CI. But is .golangci.yml actually enabling errcheck? Let me verify the .golangci.yml. Let me check. Actually, the subject says .golangci.yml version: "2", default: standard + enable: [errcheck]. With golangci-lint v2, does errcheck get enabled? And does default: standard conflict? Let me read .golangci.yml and the Makefile.

Hmm — there's a possible substantive defect: in golangci-lint v2 config, the correct key is linters.default: standard and linters.enable: [...]. If it's top-level enable: it may be ignored. But the review says golangci-lint reported 0 issues, so it ran. But did errcheck actually run? If the config is malformed for v2, golangci-lint might error out or ignore. The reviewer verified "golangci-lint 0 issues". Hmm.

Let me read .golangci.yml and Makefile to verify.

Actually, here's a potentially sharp point about the gates: NFR-004 says "the project's verification MUST fail when an error return is ignored." Is that actually tested? SC-003 says "the verification suite fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error and passes on the clean tree." Was that demonstrated? The round-002 tasks T002 smoke-tested the gates run, but did anyone verify the gate fails on an introduced ignored error (the falsifiability of NFR-004)? The subject claims "an ignored error or a known CVE fails CI" — but that's an assertion, not a demonstrated witness. Similarly for govulncheck. This is the falsifiability gap, analogous to F1. That's a sharp grill target: the round exists partly to add "falsifiable" gates, yet the gates themselves are only shown to pass, never shown to fail — i.e., are they green because they work, or green because they're no-ops?

Hmm, but that's somewhat parallel to F1, which was fixed with a literal oracle. But for gates, there's no such oracle.

Let me weigh: the grilling SOP says: "look up facts", "recommend answers", "sharpen fuzzy language", "stress-test with concrete scenarios". The single highest-value Q1 should target the claim most central to the PR and most falsifiable.

Given the round's stated purpose is "pin the operator-facing contract", and the subject explicitly flags the message-freeze granularity as the residual they'd concede — the griller's job is to test whether the concession is complete or whether it's worse than conceded. The subject says "only exit codes are fully falsifiable" and "the message catalog is a Key Entity with no verbatim oracle". But I found that the reason phrases ARE enumerated in the feature Examples. So the catalog is partially enumerated: the class phrase is pinned, the tail is not. That's actually what the DSL says. So the subject's concession is accurate-ish.

But here's the thing the subject understates: SC-002 ("100% of documented failure messages and exit codes match the running binary verbatim") is a measurable outcome of THIS round's spec. If the only message oracle is a prefix check, SC-002's message half is not measured → the round's own success criterion is unmet (or met only degenerately). And FR-006 says messages "MUST be ... asserted verbatim". So the round-002 spec asserts a stronger freeze than the truth+tests deliver, and nobody reconciled it. Since round-002's spec is not frozen (it's the round's own artifact, still editable), this is a live, fixable inconsistency.

Hmm, that's a good Q1, but it partly overlaps the conceded residual.

Let me consider the ADR angle more. The subject's framing: "with no decisions/000N ADR for a published-contract change (ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades)". This is doubly interesting: (1) it's a false factual claim (upstream 0003/0004 are about ParallelHint and orphan sweep, not contract trades); (2) it drives a proposed mitigation (add an ADR). And tellme DOES have an ADR home now (decisions/0001-project-language.md) — added in round 001's session 8, before round 002. So round 002 removed a published capability (a documented flag, shipped in round 001, matching the reference) and did NOT record an ADR, even though the project has an ADR mechanism and the round itself argues such trades deserve one. And the spec.md says the --json removal "is ratified by the user in the round-002 clarify round (Q1)". So the warrant is a clarify answer, not a durable decision record. That's a legit governance question.

Which is sharpest for Q1? Let me pick the one where I can be most concrete and where the answer materially changes the deliverable.

I think the strongest, most verification-backed Q1 is the falsifiability of the "quality-gate hardening" — specifically NFR-004/SC-003: "the verification suite fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error." Because:

The round's purpose includes making the contract falsifiable; F1 was fixed by adding a literal oracle. But the gates themselves (errcheck/govulncheck) have no demonstrated failure.
The subject claims "an ignored error or a known CVE fails CI" — an assertion.
I can verify whether .golangci.yml actually enables errcheck and whether errcheck is effective (e.g., does the codebase have any ignored error that errcheck would catch — _ = os.RemoveAll? Actually _ = writer.Close() patterns). And whether govulncheck is wired.

Hmm, but let me check the Makefile and .golangci.yml first — maybe there's a concrete defect (e.g., errcheck not actually enabled, or the verify target doesn't include them).

Let me read Makefile and .golangci.yml.

Actually, let me reconsider: the instruction is Q1 only — one question. I want the single highest-value question. Let me gather the Makefile/golangci facts first, then decide.

Let me read those.

Now I have solid verification. Let me finalize Q1.

Observations that matter:

.golangci.yml uses v2 with default: standard which in golangci-lint v2 enables the "standard" set (errcheck, govet, ineffassign, staticcheck, unused). So errcheck IS enabled by default* AND explicitly. Fine.
verify: verify-no-test-sleep verify-no-network vet lint vulncheck. So the gates ARE wired. Good.
NFR-004 / SC-003: "the verification suite fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error". Was this demonstrated? Not in the diff. The tasks.md T002 only smoke-tested that gates run. There's no witness that errcheck actually fails on an ignored error. So SC-003's claim is asserted, not demonstrated. That's the falsifiability gap for the gates. But is it? Hmm. It's plausible the reviewer wanted this. But is that the sharpest?
Actually, a much sharper issue: the verify-no-network and verify-no-test-sleep gates are make greps/tests, but the newly added lint/vulncheck gates are NOT part of make test — but they're in verify. Fine.
Let me look at the specs/plans/002.../features/acceptance/failure-reporting-contract.feature and single-diagnostic-output.feature. Are the acceptance features asserting the exit codes? The spec MC-002 says messages+exitcodes match verbatim. Let me check these acceptance features. Actually I didn't read them. Let me consider—they might assert "the documented message for that failure class exactly". Hmm.

Let me reconsider the candidate questions once more and pick the one that best "stress-tests the plan/design" and is most falsifiable and central.

Candidate A (spec↔truth↔test contradiction on "verbatim"): FR-006 + SC-002 say messages are "asserted verbatim"; the truth DSL row says "pinned to start with tellme: {reason}"; the test does a line-prefix check. So three artifacts disagree on the freeze granularity, and the round's own measurable outcome SC-002 is unmet for messages. The subject concedes "the message freeze is a prefix, not verbatim" but frames it as an acceptable residual. The griller's value: show that the concession isn't just "a residual" but an unreconciled self-contradiction in this round's own deliverables (spec SC-002/FR-006 vs truth DSL vs test), and force a decision: either (i) downgrade the spec wording to "prefix", or (ii) enumerate the exact strings as a contract table and assert equality-minus-tail. Also note the round-002 spec is NOT frozen so it can be fixed. This is strong and precise.

Candidate B (ADR / governance): tellme has an ADR home; round 002 deleted a published, shipped capability and reversed a round-001 FR (FR-013), with the warrant being a clarify answer only, no ADR; and the subject's supporting claim ("ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades") is factually wrong — upstream 0003 = ParallelHint arbitration, 0004 = orphan sweep; neither concerns published-contract trades. Strong because it's a checkable false claim + a governance gap.

Candidate C (gate falsifiability / SC-003): the gates are shown to pass, never shown to fail; NFR-004's "verification MUST fail when an error return is ignored" and SC-003's "fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error and passes on the clean tree" have no witness. Analogous to F1's gap.

Candidate D (capability divergence): reference documents -d --json; round 002 removes it. Verified line 157-159.

Which is the single best Q1? The instruction: "verify every claim against the actual repo/PR, concede nothing you cannot check, and ask exactly one question per turn." And the round is round-002 grill on PR #7. The griller should open with the most load-bearing question.

I think the sharpest and most defensible Q1 is the verbatim contradiction (A) — because the round's entire stated purpose is "pin the operator-facing contract", and FR-004/FR-006/SC-002 make that a hard requirement ("asserted verbatim"), while the truth row and the test only pin a prefix. That means the round claims a freeze it doesn't deliver, and three of its own artifacts disagree. It's falsifiable, concrete, and forcing. It also naturally subsumes the subject's own flagged residual — but I can push it beyond the concession by pointing out the subject understates it: it's not merely "the tails are unpinned"; it's that SC-002/FR-006 are factually false as written, and the un-reconciled contradiction sits inside this round's own (non-frozen, still-editable) spec.

Hmm, but the subject literally already said: "The message freeze is a prefix, not verbatim. FR-006 says messages are 'asserted verbatim', but step_t017 is a per-class strings.HasPrefix... and no truth artifact enumerates the seven exact strings as a contract table — the literal tail is unpinned". So the subject already identified exactly this. Asking it as Q1 risks "already answered."

A griller should ask a question that advances beyond the concession. So I should either (a) sharpen it into a decision question with a concrete scenario, or (b) pick a different axis the subject did NOT concede.

Given the subject conceded A, and B/C/D are unconceded, I'd rather open with an unconceded axis. Between B, C, D:

B is a governance/process question with a factual error in the subject's statement. It's checkable and the subject did NOT concede it (they framed it as "user-ratified" so fine, but proposed to add the ADR). Wait, the subject DID concede/plan to add the ADR: "My closing plan is therefore: decide and record the message-freeze granularity, add the ADR, run this griller round before merge". So the subject already plans to add an ADR. So grilling B would be asking about something the subject already agreed to do... except the factual error about 0003/0004 is unaddressed and the question "which trades warrant an ADR / does the round's own spec quote the wrong warrant" remains.
C is fully unconceded and strong: the round added gates and claims they close NFR-004/NFR-005 and satisfy SC-003 ("fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error"), but neither gate is demonstrated to fail. This is the F1-analogue at the gate layer, and it's the second half of the round's "hardening" purpose. And the subject explicitly claims in §4 "an ignored error or a known CVE fails CI" — an assertion.
D is a design-trade question; the reference capability. But the spec's premise + "Reference, Never Copy Blindly" covers it, and the user ratified it. Weaker.

Hmm. Which is highest-impact? The round has two pillars: (1) contract freeze, (2) gate hardening + unit tests. Pillar 1's residual was conceded. Pillar 2's falsifiability is unconceded. But is pillar-2 falsifiability actually a design decision the user must make? NFR-004 says verification "MUST fail when an error return is ignored" — that's about the gate's efficacy, not about a witness test. The gate's efficacy is a property of errcheck, which is well-known. So requiring a demonstrated failure is reasonable but arguably pedantic.

Let me reconsider. Actually, the sharpest question might combine verification with a concrete falsification attempt: Does the pinned exit-code oracle actually cover ALL five codes and are the messages truly unpinned? Hmm.

Actually, let me reconsider the whole thing from the "decision tree" perspective. The subject's plan for closing the round: (1) decide and record the message-freeze granularity, (2) add the ADR, (3) run griller, (4) merge → dev → main, (5) refresh STATUS/PR.

The single most load-bearing unsettled decision is #1: "decide and record the message-freeze granularity". The subject hasn't decided; they're asking the user. So the griller should force that decision — and the best way is to show the consequence of not deciding: the round's own SC-002/FR-006 are false as written, AND (importantly) the subject's proposed fix options are constrained by pflag's interleaving. The subject claims "pflag interleaves its own unknown flag: --json line so full-stderr equality is impossible" — but that only applies to the usage class; for the other six boot classes, pflag does NOT emit anything, so full-stderr equality IS achievable for those six. Let me verify: in emitBootError, each message is a single Fprintf to stderr. And parseFlags sets fs.SetOutput(os.Stderr) and on error pflag prints "unknown flag: --json" plus usage. So for boot classes (config missing/invalid/provider/home), stderr contains ONLY the one tellme: ... line. So verbatim equality of the full stderr line IS achievable for 6 of 7 classes; only the usage class has pflag's extra lines.

That's a correction to the subject's concession: the subject said "full-stderr equality is impossible" — true only for the usage class; for the six boot classes the stderr is exactly one line, so the message could be pinned verbatim (and the round is leaving that unpinned needlessly). This is a sharp, verifiable, unconceded nuance that goes beyond the concession: the subject over-generalized from the usage class to all classes.

Hmm wait, is that right? For the usage class, pflag prints "unknown flag: --wibble" AND the usage text (since ContinueOnError + usage). And then emitUsageError prints "tellme: the command-line usage is invalid". So usage stderr = pflag's lines + tellme line. For boot classes, stderr = "tellme: ..." only. So yes: verbatim single-line equality is achievable for the 6 boot classes. So the "impossible" claim is over-broad.

But careful: for the homeUnusable non-ErrNotDirectory case, the message is "tellme: the runtime home is not usable (%v)" where %v is the underlying error — that IS variable. But the ErrNotDirectory case is fixed "tellme: the workspace path is not a directory (%s)" with a variable path. And config classes embed the path. So the tails ARE variable (paths), so verbatim equality of the whole line is not achievable for those either — BUT the path is determined by the scenario (the temp home), so the test could construct the expected exact line. Hmm. Actually yes: the E2E harness knows the temp dir, so it could assert the exact full line tellme: the configuration could not be found at <home>/configs/butler.yaml. So verbatim IS achievable for boot classes.

Hmm, that's a good sharpening but it makes the question complex.

OK let me step back and pick. The griller should ask ONE question. I'll pick the question that:

is verification-backed (I can cite specific lines),
targets the round's core claim,
is not already conceded in full,
forces a concrete decision.

I think the best is a sharpen-the-concession-and-force-the-decision question on the message contract, but framed with the new evidence the subject did NOT have: that SC-002 ("100% of documented failure messages ... match verbatim") is the round's own measurable outcome, that FR-006 mandates verbatim, and that the round's spec is NOT frozen — so the contradiction must be resolved this round, and the subject's "full-stderr equality is impossible" over-generalizes (only the usage class interleaves pflag; the six boot classes emit exactly one tellme: line, so verbatim is achievable there). Question: which way do you resolve it — relax the spec+truth to "prefix" (and if so, what is the falsifiable oracle for the tail?), or pin the six boot-class strings verbatim in a truth contract table?

Hmm, that's arguably two questions bundled. But I can ask it as one decision: "Given SC-002/FR-006 mandate verbatim and only a prefix is asserted, and given the round-002 spec is the one artifact that isn't frozen — will you resolve this by (a) weakening the spec/truth to a prefix contract, or (b) pinning the full boot-class stderr lines verbatim (achievable, since only the usage class interleaves pflag)? State which, because X."

Hmm. But the grilling etiquette says one question at a time, provide recommended answer. So I should ask one crisp question with a recommendation.

Actually — let me reconsider one more time whether there's an even more fundamental issue. Let me check: does verify-no-network actually run? go test -count=1 -run TestDependencyGraphHasNoNetworkCapability ./tests/e2e/. And network_guard_test.go — let me check it exists with that test name. The reviewer said godog 20/20. Also verify-no-test-sleep greps time\.Sleep(. Fine.

Hmm, one more: the subject's §3 claims "verify becomes verify-no-test-sleep verify-no-network vet lint vulncheck". Verified. And "the Makefile gains lint and vulncheck (both resolving tools via command -v...)". Verified.

Let me also double check the acceptance features of round 002 to see whether they assert verbatim. Let me quickly read failure-reporting-contract.feature and single-diagnostic-output.feature.

Actually those are plan-side acceptance (PM-level), and they'd say "stderr matches the documented message ... exactly" (SC). That would reinforce the contradiction: the acceptance feature says "exactly" but the interface truth says "start with". Let me read to confirm — it strengthens Q1.

Let me read them.

Verified against the tree at 018f494 (head), the round-002 package, specs/truth/features/cli/**, internal/cli/cli.go, tests/e2e/exitcode_test.go / steps/, .golangci.yml, the Makefile, decisions/, and the PR discussion. Your §1–§4 claims check out where I could test them: --json is gone with no dangling references, both exit-code oracles exist (TestExitCodesAreDistinct + the F1 TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract), the four --json rejection Examples are present, verify := verify-no-test-sleep verify-no-network vet lint vulncheck, and --json is a DELETE+ADD, not a duplicate. So I'll open on the one thing your own concession understates.

Q1: Your closing plan says "decide and record the message-freeze granularity" — but on the evidence this is not a residual you may record; it is a live self-contradiction inside round 002's own deliverables, and the spec is the one artifact that is not frozen. spec.md FR-004 says "fixed, exact" messages, FR-006 says the messages "MUST be ... asserted verbatim by the acceptance set", and SC-002 says "100% of documented failure messages ... match the running binary verbatim". Yet specs/truth/features/cli/dsl.md (root Then row) weakens it to "pinned to start with tellme: {reason}", and step_t017_root_then_explains_stderr.go asserts only strings.HasPrefix(line, "tellme: "+reason). So FR-006/SC-002 are, as written, false — and unlike round-001's frozen package, this round's spec.md is editable now. Which way do you resolve it in this round: (a) weaken FR-004/FR-006/SC-002 to a prefix contract (and then state the falsifiable oracle for the unpinned tail — or declare the tail explicitly contract-free), or (b) pin the full class lines verbatim in truth? Note your stated reason for (a) is over-broad: "full-stderr equality is impossible" holds only for the usage class, where parseFlags (fs.SetOutput(os.Stderr) + ContinueOnError) interleaves pflag's own line; the six boot classes in emitBootError each write exactly one tellme: line, so line-exact equality is constructible there (the tail path is already known to the harness via the temp home).

My recommendation: (a), but tighten it so the claim is true rather than merely conceded — i.e., amend FR-004 ("exact … prefix tellme: {reason}", naming the class phrase per failure class), FR-006/SC-002 ("asserted to the class phrase, not the tail"), and add one test that the usage class's tellme: line is the last line (so the interleaved pflag output can't be mistaken for the contract); that makes SC-002 honest and still falsifiable without over-promising a tail the reference never froze either.

Your move — answer Q1 and I'll ask Q2.

Conceded — and (a), not (b); but your recommendation under-fixes one spot, and I'm withdrawing my own reason as wrong.

Conceding the framing. You're right this is not a recordable residual but a live contradiction in a non-frozen artifact. spec.md FR-004 ("fixed, exact"), FR-006 ("asserted verbatim"), and SC-002 ("… match the running binary verbatim") are written at a granularity the truth does not carry: specs/truth/features/cli/dsl.md (root Then row) pins only tellme: {reason}, and step_t017_root_then_explains_stderr.go asserts only strings.HasPrefix(line, "tellme: "+reason). As written SC-002 is false. My closing sentence ("decide and record the granularity") was too soft; the spec must be fixed in-round.

Withdrawing my reason. "Full-stderr equality is impossible" was wrong — it holds only for the usage class (fs.SetOutput(os.Stderr) + ContinueOnError in parseFlags writes pflag's line before emitUsageError). But your counter — "the six boot classes each write exactly one tellme: line, so line-exact equality is constructible there" — is also not quite right, and that is the ground for (a) over (b). Two boot lines carry non-portable tails: tellme: the runtime home is not usable (%v) interpolates an arbitrary EnsureWorkspace/OS error string, and tellme: the selected provider is not in the registry (%q) interpolates a provider name. The %q tail is harness-constructible; the %v tail is not. So (b) is not uniformly constructible even for boot; pinning it verbatim would freeze platform-specific OS text, against the round's own offline/deterministic posture (NFR-001, verify-no-test-sleep), and the reference never froze it either. Hence (a).

The spot your recommendation trips over. "Naming the class phrase per failure class" assumes FR-004's seven classes map 1:1 onto emitted lines. emitBootError emits eight tellme: forms:

the configuration could not be found at %s (via -c)
no configuration could be found at %s (default)
the configuration could not be parsed at %s
the selected provider is not in the registry (%q)
the workspace path is not a directory (%s) (ErrNotDirectory)
the runtime home is not usable (%v)
the runtime home is not usable (fmt.Fprintln, home-unset)
the command-line usage is invalid

FR-004's class list collides: "runtime home not usable" (form 6) and "runtime home unset" (form 7) share the same class phrase "the runtime home is not usable" — the only difference is form 6's contract-free (%v) tail, and the word "unset" never appears; and form 5 has no FR-004 class at all. A "prefix per class" contract is still false until the class↔phrase map is written down explicitly.

Precise revisions (read-only instructions).

spec.md FR-004 → "fixed, exact operator-facing stderr class phrase: the line beginning tellme: , naming the failure class; any class-specific trailing detail (a path or provider name) is not part of the frozen contract." Then reconcile the enumeration: merge "runtime home unset" + "runtime home not usable" into one class (freeze the shared phrase) — I recommend the merge; giving unset a distinct phrase ("tellme: the runtime home is not set" in the default branch) is a product change that expands round-002 scope into internal/cli for no contract gain — and add form 5 as its own class ("the workspace path is not a directory") or fold it explicitly under the home class.
spec.md FR-006 / SC-002 → replace "verbatim" with "asserted to the class phrase (tellme: {reason}), not the tail"; SC-002 → "100% of documented failure class phrases match the running binary". That makes both true.
specs/truth/features/cli/dsl.md (root Then row) → keep "start with tellme: {reason}" and add the per-class {reason} vocabulary to the row, so the contract's vocabulary lives in truth rather than only in scenario prose.
tests/e2e/steps/step_t017_root_then_explains_stderr.go → strengthen HasPrefix to: exactly one stderr line begins with tellme:, and it equals "tellme: " + reason. That subsumes your "usage line is last" check (pflag's interleaved lines never start with tellme:, so none can be mistaken for the contract) and is stricter than either HasPrefix or last-line.

One parallel under the same lens. SC-003's clause "the verification suite fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error" has the same shape — it asserts the errcheck gate's behavior with no test that introduces an ignored error and observes the failure. If we make SC-002 honest, SC-003's second clause deserves the same treatment (add the test, or weaken the wording).

Your Q1 answer holds where I can check it: the eight-form audit of emitBootError is correct (internal/cli/cli.go emits the six %s/%q/%v boot lines plus the Fprintln home-unset line plus the usage line), forms 6 and 7 do share the phrase the runtime home is not usable, form 5 (the workspace path is not a directory) has no FR-004 class, and you're right that the %v tail is the non-constructible one — so (a) over (b) is grounded. Conceded. But remedy #4 contradicts remedy #1, and read literally it is a red-suite bug.

Q2: Remedy #1 declares the class-specific trailing detail "not part of the frozen contract", yet remedy #4 requires that the sole tellme: line "equals \"tellme: \" + reason". Those can't both hold: the feature's {reason} values are the phrases, not the lines. Concretely, the configuration-missing Example in specs/truth/features/cli/configuration/starting-with-a-configuration.feature carries {reason} = the configuration could not be found, while the emitted line is tellme: the configuration could not be found at /tmp/tellme-e2e-XXXX/configs/butler.yaml — so line == "tellme: "+reason is false and only HasPrefix(line, "tellme: "+reason) is true. The same holds for emitBootError forms 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (every one carries a path or (%q) tail) and form 6 ((%v)); only form 7 (the runtime home is not usable, Fprintln) and form 8 (the command-line usage is invalid) satisfy equality. So: which predicate do you actually require — equality or prefix — and does the step_t017 rewrite, plus the SC-002/FR-006 wording, state it so that #1 and #4 can't be read as contradicting each other?

My recommendation: require exactly one stderr line with prefix tellme: , and that line must have prefix "tellme: " + reason — prefix, never equality — and write both #4 and the SC-002/FR-006 wording that way, so the tail is contract-free in the assertion as well as in the spec (and the "exactly one tellme:-prefixed line" guard still catches pflag's interleaved unknown flag: line, which never carries that prefix).

Answer Q2 and I'll ask Q3.

Conceded — remedy #4 as I wrote it is the bug, and it contradicts #1. The predicate I require is prefix, never equality.

The error. I wrote #4 as "exactly one stderr line begins with tellme:, and it equals "tellme: " + reason". But the feature's {reason} is the phrase, not the line: the configuration-missing Example carries the configuration could not be found, while the emitted line is tellme: the configuration could not be found at <temp>/configs/butler.yaml. Your enumeration is right — forms 1–5 carry a path or (%q) tail, form 6 carries (%v), so equality holds only for forms 7 and 8. Under #4-as-written the suite would go red for six of the eight forms, and it would contradict #1's "tail is not part of the frozen contract" in the same breath. Withdrawn.

The predicate I require (remedy #4, corrected). A single predicate:

the count of stderr lines beginning with tellme: must be exactly one; and
that one line must begin with "tellme: " + reason.

Step 1 is what the current HasPrefix-only loop lacks — it never counts, so a second tellme: line (or none, with a matching line printed elsewhere) slips through. Step 2 is prefix, so the tail is contract-free in the assertion as well as in the spec — which is exactly what makes #1 and #4 read consistently. Concretely, rewrite thenExplainsOnStderr in step_t017_root_then_explains_stderr.go to collect strings.Split(sc.stderr, "\n") lines whose strings.HasPrefix(line, "tellme: ") into a slice, t.Fatalf-style-return an error if len != 1 (naming the matched lines), and otherwise require strings.HasPrefix(matched[0], "tellme: "+reason). pflag's interleaved lines (unknown flag: --json, any Usage of tellme:) never carry the tellme: prefix, so step 1 still catches the interference you flagged — without either predicate needing ==.

Wording made consistent with prefix (so #1 and #4 can't diverge).

FR-004 → "the operator-facing stderr class phrase: the line beginning tellme: , naming the failure class; any class-specific trailing detail (a path or provider name) is not part of the frozen contract."
FR-006 → "each failure class's class phrase MUST be asserted — the class's stderr line must begin tellme: {phrase}; the trailing detail is not asserted."
SC-002 → "100% of documented failure class phrases are asserted as the tellme: {phrase} prefix of the class's stderr line, and exactly one tellme:-prefixed line is emitted per failing run."

One coherence consequence worth stating. A per-phrase predicate cannot distinguish two arrangement paths that share a phrase — forms 6 ((%v)) and 7 (Fprintln) both begin tellme: the runtime home is not usable. That is precisely why Q1 remedy #1 merges "runtime home unset" and "runtime home not usable" into one class rather than claiming to tell them apart; under the merged class, #2's prefix predicate and #1's merge reinforce each other instead of contradicting.

Optional, explicitly outside the freeze. If you want the deterministic tails (the -c path, the (%q) provider name) covered too, put them in a separate, differently-worded check (e.g. "the configuration-missing line names the path the operator supplied"), never folded into the freeze predicate — so "class phrase asserted" and "tail checked" stay distinct claims rather than a re-run of the #1/#4 contradiction. The %v form 6 tail stays uncovered either way (not constructible).

Your Q2 answer is tight and matches the tree: the corrected predicate (exactly one tellme: -prefixed line, and it must carry the tellme: {reason} prefix) is the right shape, it makes #1 and #4 read consistently, and pflag's lines (unknown flag: --json, Usage of tellme:) indeed never carry the tellme: prefix — so I concede the thread. Moving to a branch you have not conceded.

Q3: Your closing plan says "add the ADR," justified parenthetically by "(ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades)." That precedent does not exist. ~/tmp/github/gosharplite/aixbdd-tmg/decisions/ is 0001-atomicity-fold-split-criterion, 0002-project-language-override, 0003-parallel-hint-concurrency-arbitration, 0004-pre-delivery-orphan-coverage-sweep — none is a published-contract trade; 0003 and 0004 are the ParallelHint and orphan-sweep methodology decisions you cite elsewhere. So the ADR is being proposed on a precedent that isn't there. Meanwhile the change is a published-capability deletion, not just a flag cleanup: round-001 shipped -d --json (per STATUS.md, "offline -d / -d --json"), this round reverses round-001 FR-013, and the reference you benchmark against documents the capability — tell-me-go/README.md:157 "Use --json with -d for machine-readable diagnostic output" / :159 tell-me-go -d --json. So: which rule makes a decisions/000N ADR owed here — or, if none does, is the durable record already the truth-delta.md DELETE row + the frozen round-001 package + the user-ratified clarify Q1 (locked in STATUS.md), making the ADR a ceremony you'd be adding by analogy to a precedent that isn't there?

My recommendation: don't add a decisions/000N ADR unless you can name the rule that requires it — I can't find one, and your own project precedent (round-001, larger scope) recorded its decisions in STATUS.md "Decisions locked," not ADRs. Instead, put the capability-divergence rationale where the truth already lives: one clause in the round-002 research.md (and/or the DELETE row's Reason) stating that --json was removed to resolve F4 and that the round accepts divergence from the reference's documented -d --json capability — referencing tell-me-go/README.md:157. That records the deliberate regression honestly, keeps the durable trail truthful, and avoids inventing a governance step the project hasn't ratified. If you disagree and still want the ADR, cite the actual rule.

Answer Q3 and I'll ask Q4.

Conceded — and you're right that I cited a precedent that isn't there. My parenthetical was wrong twice over.

The error. "ADR 0003/0004 exist upstream precisely for such trades" conflated two different things. The ADRs I named are upstream aixbdd-tmg methodology decisions — 0001 atomicity, 0002 project-language, 0003 ParallelHint arbitration, 0004 orphan sweep — none of which is a published-contract or capability trade. And tellme's own decisions/ holds a single ADR, 0001-project-language.md, which exists not as general practice but because upstream R2's Project Language clause required a named home and sanctioned an ADR as one option (.agents/constitution/shared.md → project ADR → spec.md constraint). So tellme's ADR home was minted to satisfy a specific rule; it is not a standing habit I can borrow a second time by analogy.

Can I name a rule that owes one here? No. Requirements changes run through /axb-clarify → spec.md; the truth-change ledger is truth-delta.md (delta-entry-cites-truth, delta-covers-all-owners); the prior capability is preserved by the frozen round-001 package (plan-package-frozen). No axb-* SOP, no aixbdd domain-model invariant (there is no ADR entity in the model), and no tellme rule requires a decisions/000N ADR for a flag/capability change. I'm aware this rubs against the generic "demand ADRs for major trade-offs" heuristic in my own architect mandate — but an unratified generic practice is not a rule, and minting a new governance step to satisfy a heuristic cuts against skill-scoped-writes. Precedent agrees with you: round-001 (larger scope, including the FR-013 that this round reverses) recorded its decisions in STATUS.md "Decisions locked," not ADRs.

So accept your recommendation — and record the divergence as a divergence, not a "cleanup." The --json removal is a published-capability deletion that runs against the benchmark reference, so the durable trail must say that out loud:

round-002 research.md → add a Decision clause: "--json removed to resolve F4; the round accepts divergence from the reference's documented -d --json capability (tell-me-go/README.md:157 / :159)."
truth-delta.md /axb-dsl-refine DELETE row → extend the Reason (currently "reverses round-001 FR-013") with the same clause: it reverses FR-013 and knowingly drops a capability the reference ships.

Optional, and I'd flag it as optional so it isn't ceremony: one clause on the existing specs/truth/techstack.md "CLI flag parsing" row (already MODIFYed this round) noting --json was removed and the system intentionally diverges from the reference's documented capability. Rationale: research.md and truth-delta.md live inside the round-002 package and become frozen history, whereas techstack.md is the standing current-truth artifact a future reader hits first when asking "why does tellme lack the -d --json the reference documents?" This is an annotation of a row already in truth — not a new governance artifact — so it records the deliberate regression truthfully without inventing a step the project hasn't ratified. Your call whether it earns its place.

Subject conceded Q3, correctly. Now Q4 — 3 of 6 used.

The message-contract thread (Q1/Q2) and the ADR/governance thread (Q3) are done. Remaining branches:

SC-003 / gate falsifiability — the subject teed it up in Q1 answer: "SC-003's clause 'the verification suite fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error' ... deserves the same treatment (add the test, or weaken the wording)." Undecided. This is the obvious next branch.
Process: T015 self-review vs subagent review — the subject conceded it; and the griller round is now happening. Low marginal value (it's happening).
Orphan-coverage sweep staleness after N2/T020 and the post-review amendments — the sweep table in tasks.md was written before N2. Let me check: the sweep table lists rows like "ADD（usage --json 1 句）| T007 (Phase 3) + T016 (Phase 4A)". N2 added a second ADD row (the --version --json When row) + T020. The sweep table doesn't mention it. So the orphan sweep is now incomplete/stale. Is that a real gap? The sweep is a gate (per ADR 0004). If a new truth row (the --version --json When row) was added post-sweep and isn't in the sweep, then the sweep's claim "孤立產物件數：0" is stale. That's a genuine, verifiable finding — but it's a "process hygiene" nit.
The unit tests coverage claim vs research Decision 1 — the env-plumbing nuance. Low.
NFR-005 / govulncheck falsifiability — same shape as SC-003.
A deeper one: is the message prefix freeze actually enforced against the product? i.e., step_t017 asserts the prefix. If someone changed a product message to drop the "tellme: " prefix, step_t017 fails. ✓. If someone changed the phrase (e.g., "the configuration could not be found" → "config missing"), the feature's {reason} is a literal in the feature file, so the test compares against the feature's literal — the truth phrase. So the freeze is enforced. ✓.

Hmm, but here's a subtle one: the truth DSL root row's {reason} vocabulary. Q1 remedy #3 said: "add the per-class {reason} vocabulary to the row, so the contract's vocabulary lives in truth rather than only in scenario prose." Currently the vocabulary lives ONLY in feature Example prose (the {reason} arguments), not in dsl.md. So the canonical home for the frozen phrase vocabulary is... the feature files. That's acceptable (features are truth), but the subject proposed putting it in dsl.md too. Fine.

Let me now target the strongest remaining: SC-003 / gate falsifiability. But I want to add a twist beyond the subject's own offer, and there IS one: the subject's SC-003 also has a third implication — NFR-005's govulncheck. And critically: the round claims the gates "close the residual" (NFR-004) and that CI fails on a CVE (NFR-005). But there's a deeper structural problem: make verify runs lint and vulncheck, but make test and make build do NOT. And the E2E/godog suite is run via go test ./...? Hmm. Also — is make verify actually wired into CI? There's no CI config in the repo! Let me check: is there a .github/workflows? The repo listing showed no .github. So "fails CI" is a claim with no CI. The subject says "The gates are wired into make verify, so an ignored error or a known CVE fails CI." But there's no CI in the repo — no .github/workflows, no .gitlab-ci.yml. So "fails CI" is unsupported: the gate only fails when a human runs make verify. That's a sharp, verifiable finding!

Let me verify: list_files of repo root showed: .git, .gitignore, .golangci.yml, Makefile, README.md, SESSION-BOOTSTRAP.md, SESSION-CLOSEOUT.md, STATUS.md, cmd, decisions, docs, go.mod, go.sum, internal, specs, tellme, tests. No .github dir. Let me double-check with a find for CI configs.

If there's no CI, then the round's purpose for the gates ("an ignored error or a known CVE fails CI" / NFR-004 "the project's verification MUST fail when an error return is ignored") is only realized on a local make verify run. The verify target is a local gate; nothing runs it automatically. So NFR-005 "the project's verification MUST include a dependency-vulnerability check that fails on a known vulnerability" — "verification" = make verify = local. That's arguably fine (the spec says "the project's verification MUST include..."), but the subject's §4 claim "fails CI" is false without CI.

Hmm — is this a real issue or am I overreaching? The spec NFR-004/005 say "the project's verification MUST..." → make verify satisfies it. But the subject's claim "so an ignored error or a known CVE fails CI" implies CI. If there's no CI, that's a false claim. And it's load-bearing for the round's value proposition (gates that nothing runs are documentation). Actually — wait, SESSION-CLOSEOUT.md probably says "run the quality gates" as a manual step. So the gates are manual-by-design. So "fails CI" is just loose wording; the design is manual gates. Hmm. But it's still a checkable false claim, and it raises a real question: is a gate that only runs when a human types make verify actually "hardening," or is it advisory?

Hmm, this is decent but might be a "gotcha" on wording. Let me weigh vs SC-003.

Actually, let me combine: Q4 = the gate-falsifiability/effectiveness axis, with TWO concrete verifications: (a) SC-003's "fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error" has no witness (subject concedes), and (b) there's no CI config in the repo, so "fails CI" is unsupported → the gates are advisory (manual) unless wired. Question: which of these do you fix, and does the round's NFR-004/005 claim ("verification MUST fail") survive without either a negative witness or CI wiring?

Hmm. But that's arguably two questions. Let me pick the sharpest ONE.

Let me verify the CI absence first — that's a fact I must confirm before asserting.

Also, let me re-examine: SESSION-CLOSEOUT.md "review tree → quality gates" — so gates are a manual closeout step. So the design intent is manual. Then "fails CI" is a wording slip. Grilling it: "there is no CI; your §4 says the gates 'fail CI' — is that a false claim, and if the gates only run on a manual make verify, is NFR-004/005's 'verification MUST fail' actually enforced or merely available?" That's fair and verification-backed.

Alternatively, SC-003 is cleaner (the subject itself named it). And I can add value by stress-testing the "add the test" branch: a negative test for errcheck is either self-mutating (pollutes tree) or fixture-based (needs a separate module + the linter on PATH, and won't use the repo's .golangci.yml → proves nothing about this config). So the only honest fix is to weaken SC-003 + record a one-time witness. Recommend that.

Hmm. Let me decide: I'll do Q4 on the gates' actual enforcement (combining "no CI" + "no negative witness") because it's broader and touches the round's headline ("add gates"), and it hasn't been conceded. Actually, "no negative witness" WAS conceded by the subject (it teed up SC-003). So the new part is "no CI" + the consequence that "fails CI" is false. Let me lead with that.

Let me verify the CI absence now.

Let me also double check whether make verify is referenced in any workflow/script. Search for "verify" in docs/CI. And check for hidden dirs.

Let me run the checks.

Your Q3 answer is correct on every point I can check — no ADR entity exists in the aixbdd-tmg model, no axb-* SOP or tellme rule owes one, round-001 recorded its decisions in STATUS.md, and "record the divergence as a divergence" is the honest fix. Conceded. Next branch: the gates' enforcement, which your Q1 answer opened but didn't close.

Q4: Your §4 states "The gates are wired into make verify, so an ignored error or a known CVE fails CI." There is no CI to fail. A repo-wide search for workflow/pipeline YAML (.github/, GitLab, Jenkins, Circle, drone) returns only .golangci.yml — no .github/ directory, no workflow file — and SESSION-CLOSEOUT.md:19 frames the gates as a manual step ("Run the quality gates … Never close out on a red gate"). So make verify is a target a human elects to run; nothing runs it automatically, and PR #7 itself carries no check runs (the review was manual). That makes NFR-004 ("the project's verification MUST fail when an error return is ignored") and NFR-005 ("… MUST include a dependency-vulnerability check that fails") true only for a hand-run make verify, and it makes SC-003's clause "the verification suite fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error" unwitnessed — T002 only ran both gates on a clean tree. So: is "fails CI" a false claim to retract, or does the round owe a real enforcement path (a CI workflow plus a negative witness) before the gates count as "hardening" rather than advisory wiring?

My recommendation: retract "fails CI" → "make verify includes…", and keep NFR-004/005 as the project's manual gate (the closeout already mandates it) rather than promising automation you don't have. Then close SC-003 the way you closed the exit-code pin: satisfy its "fails" half with a recorded one-time witness — introduce a single ignored error return, observe make lint exit non-zero, revert, and note it in the round's evidence (same shape as round-001's no-egress differential witness) — while weakening the clause to "…passes on the clean tree and includes the ignored-error gate." Don't build a self-mutating or fixture-based linter test: the former pollutes the tree, and the latter runs outside the repo's .golangci.yml, so it would prove nothing about this policy. If you think the gates genuinely need CI, that's a scope expansion this round's spec.md doesn't authorize — decide it explicitly rather than asserting it.

Answer Q4 and I'll ask Q5.

Conceded — "fails CI" is false and I retract it. There is no CI: the repo root has no .github/ and a whole-repo search returns only .golangci.yml; nothing runs make verify automatically; PR #7 carries no check runs; and SESSION-CLOSEOUT.md frames the gates as a manual closeout step. So a gate "fails CI" only in my prose — no artifact claims it. Worth stating precisely: spec.md NFR-004/005 say "The project's verification MUST fail … / MUST include a dependency-vulnerability check that fails" — "the project's verification" is make verify, so the NFRs are correct as written and need no revision (this is the opposite of Q1, where the spec itself was wrong). My §4 over-claimed the enforcement mechanism, not the requirement.

Retraction (my prose, not an artifact). §4 should read: "make verify runs verify-no-test-sleep verify-no-network vet lint vulncheck, so an ignored error (errcheck) or a known vulnerability (govulncheck) makes make verify exit non-zero." That is a mandated manual gate — SESSION-CLOSEOUT.md requires a green make verify before closeout — not automation, and not merely advisory wiring either. "Hardening" is fair only in that sense.

SC-003 — accept the witness, with one refinement. You're right that T002 only ran both gates on a clean tree, so SC-003's "fails on a deliberately introduced ignored error" is unwitnessed. Take the round-001 SC-004 shape: a recorded one-time manual witness — introduce one ignored error return, observe make lint exit non-zero, revert, record it in the round's evidence alongside the clean-tree run. Where I'd diverge from your recommendation: rather than deleting the "fails" clause, keep it and mark its verification method, so SC-003 stays a falsifiable criterion rather than a softened claim — spec.md SC-003 → "the pure resolution rules are covered by unit tests, make verify passes on the clean tree, and the ignored-error gate exits non-zero on a deliberately introduced unchecked error (witnessed once, manually — see the round's evidence)." That mirrors the SC-004 no-egress differential witness the project already ratified. If the team's rule is that success criteria be suite-reproducible only, then weaken it exactly as you propose ("…passes on the clean tree and includes the ignored-error gate") — either reads honestly; I just prefer the witnessed-criterion form. I fully agree on rejecting a self-mutating linter test (pollutes the tree) and a fixture-based one (runs outside this repo's .golangci.yml, so it proves nothing about this policy) — same reason the witness is the right tool.

CI: not this round — decide it explicitly, don't assert it. NFR-004/005 say nothing about CI, and spec.md authorizes no automation work; round-001 ran to delivery on the same manual posture. Adding a workflow is a scope expansion that belongs in a fresh package (fresh-package-per-round), not a silent addition here. Record it as an explicit non-goal / future-round candidate rather than pretending the gates are automated.

One checkable defect on this same branch, which I'd fix while here. research.md Decision 2 says the gates are "wired into the Makefile (make verify / make check)", and tasks.md T001 says "接入 verify 與 check 聚合目標" — but the Makefile defines no check target (neither in the target list nor in .PHONY; the aggregate is verify alone). So Decision 2 and T001 reference a target that was never created. Fix both to make verify. It's the same "names a thing that isn't there" class as Q1's class-less form and your ADR-precedent catch — a small orphan in the round's own wiring description.

Your Q4 answer holds and I checked it: spec.md NFR-004/005 are about "the project's verification" (make verify), which is correct as written, so retracting only the §4 "fails CI" prose is the right fix; and your make check catch is real — the Makefile defines help build fmt vet staticcheck tidy lint vulncheck test verify-no-test-sleep verify-no-network verify (and .PHONY matches), with no check target, while research.md Decision 2 and tasks.md T001 both name make verify / make check. Conceded. One branch left, and your own make check catch is the pattern for it.

Q5: The N2 amendment — and now this grill's pending fix-set (FR-004/FR-006/SC-002/SC-003 wording, the dsl.md root-row vocabulary, step_t017, the research.md divergence clause, the truth-delta Reason, the techstack annotation) — changes artifacts after the round certified itself. Two places in the round's own evidence are already stale against the tree:

truth-delta.md → /axb-dsl-refine ADD row still reads "Added two --json rejection Examples (alongside -d, and on its own) … and the supporting When row the operator runs tellme's diagnostic with \"--json\"", and names one When row — but specs/truth/features/cli/usage/unsupported-cli-usage.feature now carries three --json rejection Examples (-d --json, --json via -c, --version --json) under a second When row, added by T020.
The Pre-Delivery Orphan Coverage Sweep table still has one ADD row — "ADD（usage --json 1 句） … T007 (Phase 3) + T016 (Phase 4A)" — counting one sentence and citing no T020, so its "孤立產物件數：0。掃描通過" no longer matches the tree.

Every task is [X], T015's review gate is closed, and the sweep asserts zero orphans — all certified against the pre-N2, pre-grill artifacts. So: does the fix-set re-open the round's completion certification — and what re-verification does the round owe before merge (truth-delta refresh, re-sweep including T020 and any new truth rows the fix-set adds, re-marking/re-scoping the affected tasks, T015 review re-run)?

My recommendation: treat it as re-open, not as a docs touch-up — the stale sweep is the same defect class as F1: a certification that no longer matches the artifact. Before merge: (1) refresh the truth-delta ADD row to "three --json rejection Examples + two supporting When rows"; (2) re-run the orphan sweep with T020's sentence and the fix-set's new truth rows (the dsl.md vocabulary and the techstack annotation, if you take them) added, and restate the count; (3) re-mark/annotate the affected [X] tasks (T009–T012 already carry an "over-stated" note, so this is consistent, not new); and (4) re-run the T015 review gate and make verify (with the SC-003 witness) against the post-fix tree, since the certified state no longer matches it. If after the fix-set the count is genuinely still 0 orphans, say so explicitly rather than leaving the pre-N2 table standing.

Answer Q5 and I'll ask Q6 (the last).

Conceded — it re-opens the completion certification, and it's the F1 class: a certification (here the sweep) that no longer matches the artifact. truth-delta.md → /axb-dsl-refine ADD row and the sweep's single ADD row are both stale against the tree — checked: the ADD row says "two --json rejection Examples … and the supporting When row", and the sweep says "ADD（usage --json 1 句）… T007 (Phase 3) + T016 (Phase 4A)", while usage/unsupported-cli-usage.feature now carries three --json rejection Examples and two new When rows. So the sweep's "孤立產物件數：0。掃描通過" was certified against pre-N2 inputs. Since the Pre-Delivery Orphan Coverage Sweep is a mandatory delivery gate (upstream ADR 0004), a gate whose inputs changed after it ran must be re-run — the certification, not the code, is what regressed.

But I'd sharpen two things in your framing. First, the drift is two waves, not one: (i) N2/T020 drifted the evidence before this grill (T020 landed a truth sentence and never touched the truth-delta ADD row or the sweep); (ii) this grill's fix-set will drift it again. Both must be reconciled in one refresh, or the re-sweep re-inherits the first wave. Second, it is not a code regression — make verify, godog, and the built binary are unaffected by a stale sweep table; the re-verification is of the certification surface (evidence ↔ tree), which is why re-running the sweep + T015 + make verify against the post-fix tree is the right cost, not a re-implementation.

Owed re-verification before merge (as instructions):

Refresh the truth-delta.md ADD row to: "Added three --json rejection Examples (alongside -d, on its own, and alongside --version) under the existing unrecognized-flag Rule, and two supporting When rows — the operator runs tellme's diagnostic with "--json" (T007) and the operator starts tellme with "--version" and the unrecognized flag "--json" (T020); the 'on its own' Example reuses the existing parameterized row." (The "on its own" Example uses the round-001 parameterized row, so only two sentences are new — say so, or the next sweep mis-counts again.)
Re-run the sweep with T020's sentence and the fix-set's new truth-side rows included (the dsl.md root-row class-phrase vocabulary, plus the techstack "CLI flag parsing" annotation if you take it), and restate the count explicitly post-fix. Note the spec-side amendments (FR-004/006, SC-002/003 wording) do not enter the sweep — they are spec.md, not a truth-delta row — so the sweep's input set grows only by the two truth-side items.
Re-mark / annotate the affected [X] tasks: T008 ([BDD-ALIGN] on the root stderr row — its step_t017 predicate changes), T007 (the usage When row), T020 (already post-review), consistent with the existing "Note (post-review F1)" pattern on T009–T012. T013/T014/T016 are untouched.
Re-run the T015 review gate scoped to the changed stepdefs (step_t017 body-conformance against the corrected dsl.md row; no new undefined steps) and make verify — now carrying the SC-003 one-time witness from Q4 — against the post-fix tree.
Re-issue the PR evidence: the PR body's "0 orphans · topology audit 126 steps" and "godog 20/20" are bound to the pre-fix head; refresh both after the fix-set (T020 already moved the step count once).

One ownership boundary your fix-set crosses, which the round must route, not just apply. The spec.md amendments are PM-owned — the Spec invariant is spec-pm-authored ("Only the PM edits a Spec; the RD side escalates gaps"). So the FR-004/FR-006/SC-002/SC-003 rewording I specified in Q1–Q4 cannot be applied by the RD side (me//axb-dsl-refine); it routes through the PM role — which is exactly how round-001's PM-1..PM-4 were handled (butler-as-PM). The truth dsl.md, step_t017, research.md, truth-delta.md, and techstack.md are RD-side and can be applied directly. Flagging this so the fix-set doesn't quietly violate spec-pm-authored while chasing a spec honest-ness fix.

Exit statement. After the fix-set, the round is re-certified only when: the refreshed truth-delta ADD row matches the feature, the re-run sweep states a count derived from the post-fix inputs (state "0 orphans" explicitly if it still holds), T015 re-passes over the changed stepdefs, and make verify (with the witness) is green on the post-fix head — and the PR approval (currently "approved — clear to merge" at the reviewed head) is re-confirmed, since it too was issued against the pre-fix artifacts.

Q6 + Griller verdict

──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── ╭─⠿ Turn 17 - griller [14:19:00] Payload: ~170473/1000000 tokens - griller - deepseek-flash

Subject's Q5 answer is thorough, and it raised a NEW point: spec-pm-authored — the Spec invariant says only PM edits a Spec, so the spec rewording routes through the PM role. That's a genuine boundary the griller should test, and it's the last question.

Let me verify spec-pm-authored exists as an invariant. The bootstrap Step 3 mentioned the aixbdd domain model with entities and invariants. Let me verify the invariant name. Let me check the aixbdd-tmg domain model for spec-pm-authored.

Actually, the subject asserts the invariant literally is spec-pm-authored ("Only the PM edits a Spec; the RD side escalates gaps"). I should verify this claim — the griller's job. Let me check the domain model.

Also, is there a spec-freeze or plan-package-frozen? And is there an invariant about who edits truth?

Let me grep the aixbdd-tmg domain model.

If verified, then Q6 could be: about the PM handoff — the fix-set's spec amendments must route via PM (butler-as-PM), which is a process the round must execute; does the round's plan account for it, and is there a sequencing constraint (PM edits spec → then RD truth/test changes reference the corrected wording)? Or: is spec-pm-authored actually satisfied because the round-002 spec was written by... hmm.

Actually, there's a sharper angle: the round-002 grill is asking the architect (RD side) to answer questions whose fixes are PM-owned. The subject flagged it. But there's a subtlety: if spec-pm-authored means only PM edits a Spec, then the spec.md FR-004/006/SC-002/003 rewording is a PM action, and the RD-side artifacts (dsl.md, step_t017) must follow the corrected spec. So there's a sequencing: PM rewrites spec → RD aligns truth+test. If RD applies the truth/test changes first (or simultaneously), the truth would momentarily describe a contract the spec doesn't yet state — a coherence inversion. So Q6: what's the ordering, and does the round's plan (butler-as-PM, per round-001 PM-1..PM-4) record it?

Alternatively, Q6 could probe whether there's a deeper inconsistency the subject missed. But I've covered a lot. Let me consider whether to verify spec-pm-authored and ask about it, or whether there's a bigger fish.

Let me think about what's the single most valuable final question. The subject has conceded Q1–Q5 and proposed fixes. The plan is now: PM-side spec amendments + RD-side truth/test/evidence refresh + re-sweep + re-review + re-verify + re-issue PR evidence. The one unverified claim in the subject's last answer is spec-pm-authored (the invariant name and content). Let me verify it, and also check whether there's an analogous invariant for truth (truth-single-owner) and whether the acceptance features are PM-owned too (the subject said round-002 acceptance features exist; if the spec's SC-002 changes, does the acceptance feature also need PM edits? The acceptance feature failure-reporting-contract.feature says "Each class of failure is expected to carry its own documented message" — does it need changing to match the class-phrase wording? It uses "tellme explains on stderr that the configuration could not be found" (phrase-level, no verbatim claim), so it's already at class-phrase granularity → no change needed. Good — the acceptance features are already prefix/phrase-shaped, which actually supports the class-phrase resolution. Hmm interesting: the acceptance features never claimed verbatim; they use phrase forms. So the spec's FR-006/SC-002 "verbatim" is the odd one out, and the acceptance features are consistent with the truth. That's a nice confirmation.)

So Q6: verify spec-pm-authored and ask the routing/sequencing question. But also — is there a higher-impact final question? Let me consider the "who owns the acceptance feature" and whether the round-001 PM-owned acceptance features (frozen) conflict. No.

Hmm, let me also consider: the subject said the spec amendments route via PM (butler-as-PM). But the grill round's subject is the architect (RD). So the architect is committing to fixes it can't apply. Q6 could press: "you've specified PM-owned spec edits; do you have the PM's authority this session, or does the fix-set need a PM handoff — and if a handoff, what's the sequencing so truth/test don't lead the spec?"

Let me verify spec-pm-authored in the aixbdd-tmg domain model to ground the question. Let me grep.

Let me run it.

Actually, let me be efficient: grep for "pm-authored" or "PM" invariants in the domain model.

Verified your citation: aixbdd-tmg/domain-model/aixbdd.modelith.yaml:127 → spec-pm-authored — "Only the PM edits a Spec; the RD side escalates gaps through clarification instead of editing it." Your Q5 answer is right on the two-wave drift and on re-certification being a gate re-run, not a code change. That invariant, though, is the last thing your exit statement leaves under-specified.

Q6: The invariant routes the RD side through clarification — not merely "to the PM" — yet round-002's clarify Q2 already ratified "pin the NFR-004 error-message wording," which is FR-004/FR-006/SC-002. So: is the FR-004/006/SC-002/003 rewording (i) a new gap that owes a fresh /axb-clarify, or (ii) a PM authoring defect in an artifact the PM already owns the ratified answer to (→ PM edits, no new clarify)? And given truth-current coherence, must the PM's spec.md correction land before the RD-side dsl.md / step_t017 changes — so the truth never momentarily describes a class-phrase contract the spec doesn't yet state — or do they land together? Finally, do you hold PM authority this session (round-001 used butler-as-PM for PM-1..PM-4), or does the fix-set's spec half need a handoff recorded before merge?

My recommendation: (i) it's an authoring defect, not a new gap — Q2 decided "pin the wording", so no new clarify is owed; the PM corrects its own wording to class-phrase granularity. (ii) Sequence PM-spec first, RD truth/test after, in one committing session, so truth-current holds at every step (the truth should never lead the spec). (iii) Mirror round-001: butler-as-PM applies the spec.md edits, the architect applies the RD-side edits (dsl.md root row, step_t017, research.md clause, truth-delta, techstack annotation, make check→verify fixes), and the round's evidence records the split. That closes the boundary without inventing a governance step — the same discipline as Q3.

VERDICT: The diagnosis held — after five concessions (message granularity, the equality predicate, the false ADR precedent, the "fails CI" over-claim, the stale sweep) every correction was repo-grounded and the contract-freeze design itself is sound; what remained was not design but certification drift (a stale truth-delta/sweep table, an unwitnessed gate, an unaudited PM boundary). Proceed with changes: apply the Q1–Q5 fix-set with the spec half routed PM-first and the RD half after, re-run the orphan sweep + T015 + make verify (with the SC-003 one-time witness) against the post-fix head, refresh the PR evidence and re-confirm the approval — then merge. No architectural blocker; the round is merge-ready only once the refreshed certification matches the tree, not the pre-N2 artifacts.

(A) Answering Q6.

(i) Authoring defect, not a new gap — no fresh /axb-clarify. The spec's defect is not an undecided requirement; it is a formulation that overstates the decision already ratified by clarify Q2 ("pin the NFR-004 error-message wording"). spec-pm-authored routes the RD side through clarification, but there is nothing left to ask: the PM's ratified intent ("pin the wording") is realizable only at class-phrase granularity, because three of the emitted lines (%s/%q/%v) carry tails that are not constructible and one (%v) is not even portably deterministic. So the PM corrects its own wording to the granularity its own decision can enforce. One caveat that is the real boundary: this is true for the (a) realization I chose in Q1. The (b) realization — freezing the full lines — would require a product change (internal/cli/cli.go emitBootError, dropping the non-constructible %v tail from the home-unusable line) and therefore a genuinely new scope decision. So the PM's spec.md correction must state the (a)/(b) boundary explicitly — "class phrase frozen, tail contract-free" — so the narrowing is visible. If anyone wants (b), that owes a new clarify. For (a), none.

(ii) PM-spec first, RD after, in one committing session — but be precise about why. I'd not overstate this as a truth-current breach. truth-current says a TruthArtifact reflects the current system; the fix-set changes no product code (the binary's messages already carry the tails, and the prefix contract already matches), so the system is unchanged and truth-current is not violated by the fix-set at all — both artifacts merely re-describe the same binary. The sequencing is therefore about review coherence, and PM-first is still the correct causal order: the requirement governs the truth vocabulary, and the truth must not momentarily assert a class-phrase contract the spec hasn't yet stated. Land both in one session so no single commit shows spec and truth disagreeing in opposite directions (today's defect is spec=verbatim/truth=prefix; the fix must not invert it).

(iii) I do not hold PM authority — the spec half needs a recorded handoff. I am the architect (RD side, read-only); the Spec invariant is spec-pm-authored. Route the spec.md edits to the PM — mirror round-001's butler-as-PM for PM-1..PM-4 (or the pm config if the orchestrator prefers to delegate) — and the evidence must record the split: PM applies FR-004/006 + SC-002/003; the RD side applies specs/truth/features/cli/dsl.md (root row vocabulary), step_t017_root_then_explains_stderr.go, research.md Decision 2 (divergence clause and make check→make verify), the truth-delta.md ADD/Reason refresh, the optional techstack.md annotation, and tasks.md T001 (make check→verify). No new governance step — the same discipline as Q3.

POST-GRILL POSITION:

What I stand by. The contract-freeze design — it survived the grill and the griller agrees it is sound. Specifically: (1) the --json removal by deletion (F4 resolves through the existing unrecognized-flag path in parseFlags/emitUsageError; no new mechanism) as a DELETE+ADD with dsl-single-authority preserved; (2) the two-oracle exit-code freeze (TestExitCodesAreDistinct + the F1 TestExitCodesMatchPinnedContract pinning the literals 0/2/3/4/5 against the symbolic cli.* use in the stepdefs); (3) the F9 amendment of round-001 D5 as E2E-for-the-acceptance-path plus pure-helper unit tests (complementary, not replacing); (4) the two gates wired into make verify. None of these violates plan-package-frozen, fresh-package-per-round, or truth-single-owner; the round-001 package is untouched and the new package supersedes. The eight-form emitBootError audit and the class↔phrase mapping are correct and checkable.

What I revised as a result of the grill (five concessions, all repo-grounded). (1) Message granularity — FR-004/FR-006/SC-002 are wrong as written ("exact"/"verbatim"); the freeze is a class phrase (tellme: {reason}), the tail is contract-free, and the class enumeration itself is defective (forms 6/7 share a phrase; form 5 has no class). (2) Predicate — remedy #4's == was a red-suite bug; the predicate is prefix, plus "exactly one tellme: -prefixed line per failing run." (3) ADR — my cited precedent (0003/0004) was a false analogy; no rule owes an ADR; the reference-divergence rationale goes in research.md + the truth-delta Reason (+ optional techstack note), not a new governance file. (4) "fails CI" retracted — no CI exists; the gate is the manual make verify mandated by SESSION-CLOSEOUT.md; SC-003's "fails" half gets a one-time manual witness (SC-004 shape); CI is a future-round non-goal; make check→make verify fixed. (5) Certification re-opened — the truth-delta ADD row and the sweep table are stale (two waves: N2/T020, then this fix-set), so the mandatory sweep is re-run against the post-fix head, T015 re-passed, make verify re-run with the witness, PR evidence refreshed, and the approval re-confirmed.

My disposition: proceed with changes — agreeing with the griller's verdict. The round is merge-ready only after the refreshed certification matches the tree, with the spec half PM-first and the RD half after.

Open questions (for the orchestrator/PM).

(a) vs (b): confirm the PM's ratified intent is satisfied by the class-phrase freeze (a). If the PM/user wants the full-string freeze (b), that is a product change + a fresh clarify — not this round as scoped.
techstack divergence annotation: take it (my recommendation, for standing discoverability) or leave the rationale in research.md + truth-delta only.
PM route: butler-as-PM vs the pm config — the orchestrator's call, but the split must be recorded before merge.
CI: treat the gates as the project's manual closeout gate this round (my recommendation) and record "add a CI workflow" as a future-package candidate — or decide explicitly to expand scope; not silently asserted.
