Reconciliation

Duplicate identities and retained parts

Amendment: EPI-OBJ-sign-content is superseded by MEM-OBJ-canon-source. Both identify authored .sign files consumed by parsing, validation and compilation, including the four shipped corpus documents. Their identity evidence is the same filesystem input and structural versus natural-language consumption split (SRC-1, validator/src/parse.js, .agent/sign/src/SL-STANDARDS.sign). Epistemic distinctions between truth-apt descriptions and imperative policy supplement the memory account; they do not identify a different source object. The epistemic inventory and ledger references retain those findings under their existing IDs; this amendment replaces no field value.

Amendment: EPI-OBJ-canon-index is superseded by MEM-OBJ-canon-index. Both identify the same canon-index.sign output of RT-RTE-compile-canon, with symbolic IDs/links and source-authored natural-language summaries. Their evidence names the same projection, omitted rule bodies and anchor exclusions, and four-pattern cap (SRC-1, validator/src/compile.js). The epistemic inventory, transformation and retention rows, and bounded conclusion therefore concern the same retained index as the memory account, not another context artifact or consumer.

Amendment: EPI-OBJ-canon-bundle is superseded by MEM-OBJ-canon-bundle. Both identify canon-bundle.sign, assembled by rereading whole files contributing active IDs, not a reconstructed graph or independently filtered document set (SRC-1, validator/src/compile.js; RT-RTE-compile-canon). The epistemic inventory, ledger and conclusion retain their source-warrant and stable-input qualifications. The memory record supplies additional lineage and withdrawal detail without changing that referent.

No split supersession is warranted for EPI-OBJ-canon-manifest. It explicitly identifies manifest and checksum outputs. MEM-OBJ-canon-manifest and MEM-OBJ-bundle-checksum distinguish the JSON metadata and separate hexadecimal text file. The epistemic record remains a valid combined account: symbolic build metadata and byte identity, not authenticated authorship or domain truth. Its findings do not become wrong when the two memory objects are separated. These are overlapping aggregate/part descriptions, not three identical objects or evidence of a downstream verification route (SRC-1, validator/src/compile.js).

EPI-OBJ-infer and EPI-OBJ-edge-provenance remain distinct parts of the source-content object, not duplicates of either source container. Their declared parent remains EPI-OBJ-sign-content, whose duplicate identity is connected above. Infer field-presence checks and edge provenance interpretation differ in checks and intended consumers. The source container's mixed content does not invalidate its findings once these parts are distinguished (SRC-1, validator/src/parse.js, examples/04-inference-rules.sign, examples/05-crosswalk-provenance.sign).

Connected routes, claims and authority

MEM-RTE-canon-delivery, RT-CLM-agent-contract and RT-BAP-canon-guidance concern the same intended external consumer, but are not identical records: respectively a delivery progression, a public design claim and a consumer/channel/force account. Supersession is ruled out. The memory route's afforded design role, runtime's claimed guidance, and epistemic ledger's doctrine-only host consumption do not conflict. Each stops short of an inspected enclosing implementation or observed operation. The README's illustrative prompt and document handler are their common evidence, not independent corroboration of deployed delivery (SRC-1, README.md). The workflow continuation preserves that same boundary.

EPI-RTE-infer-check is a check subroute of RT-RTE-compile-canon, reused by RT-RTE-validate-source, not a duplicate compiler disposition. Its Boolean-prefix evidence explains the narrower structural license of the runtime gate. Both compilation and standalone validation remain distinct routes: standalone validation's zero-document early success does not contradict the compiler's pre-write error veto (SRC-1, validator/src/parse.js, validator/src/rules.js, validator/src/validate.js, validator/src/compile.js). No supersession or missing-part conflict follows.

EPI-CLM-governed-inference and EPI-CLM-provenance-authority specify reasoning and authority claims within the broader agent contract, rather than duplicating its delivery claim. The first concerns expressed inference/constraint semantics; the second concerns asserted/inferred authority and promotion. Neither is identical to a source object, structural check or actual human approval route. Supersession is ruled out. The second record retains the differing asserted conventions in the skill reference and main specification; this is a source-doctrine qualification, not a disagreement between analyst reports. Memory and workflow attribute the human-review requirement to the skill reference without claiming universal enforcement (SRC-1, spec/skill-reference.md, spec/sign-v1.0.md).

Convergence and integration-issue dispositions

The memory annotations, epistemic ledger and workflow account converge on RT-RTE-compile-canon: recognized errors veto before writes; index/manifest identity selection differs from raw-file bundle selection; sequential writes and raw rereading require separate recovery and input-stability qualifications. Memory's copied-summary detail supplements rather than corrects this route. The output objects are products of compilation, not duplicate routes or parts requiring supersession of the valid route container. Shared use of compiler evidence is agreement across lenses, not independent execution evidence (SRC-1, validator/src/compile.js, validator/src/parse.js).

RT-RTE-source-signals and RT-RTE-corpus-diff remain distinct maintenance routes. Memory describes transient curation signals; epistemic analysis bounds their comparison license; workflow keeps them optional inputs to external review. The epistemic edge-provenance-only change deduction adds a concrete limitation to the existing seven-sigil comparison account, not a conflicting claim about diff. None establishes a persisted review queue, repaired canon or completed production revalidation (SRC-1, validator/src/drift.js, validator/src/diff.js).

The memory integration issues retain unresolved host resolution, returned content, budgets, cache invalidation and compliance under MEM-RTE-canon-delivery; initial authorship and actual approval under MEM-OBJ-canon-source; and external transformation controls under RT-RTE-import-delegation. MEM-OBJ-skill-reference is distinct static authoring guidance with an external reader, not that importer or an implemented authoring route. Metadata objects have known producers but no established later verifier. These are compatible limits, not disagreements requiring a stronger status or an invented missing route.

No cross-report disagreement was identified in the supplied members. No correction answers or declined objections were supplied. The duplicate amendments above and retained aggregate/part distinctions dispose of the identity overlaps; no analyst finding is rewritten. All members retain the boundary's partial-loop limitation: code-grounded preparation does not establish external agent activation, successful delivery, learning or causal benefit. This reconciliation used the supplied records only and performed no additional source reads.
