Verification

The handed synthesis supports publication as a bounded implementation account. I checked every substantive passage against the handed boundary, runtime, memory, epistemic and workflow members, the reconciliation's supersessions, and the report and profile verification judgments. The synthesis answers file is empty; no synthesis refusal or previous synthesis verification was supplied. I found no material unsupported conclusion. Source-read log: none. This judgment uses the supplied records, not new evidence or target execution.

Boundary and retained state. The public opening accurately identifies SRC-1, the frozen revision and cutoff, the whole-system functional boundary and its inspection limits. It separates the target's shipped consumers from external host inference, transcript creation and action execution. The claimed work remains attributed doctrine rather than successful operation (boundary, RT-CLM-search-before-edit). Its derivative-index, separate JSONL, append-revision and imported-metadata account is supported by RT-OBJ-index-db, MEM-OBJ-notes and MEM-OBJ-session-meta. Admission is not strengthened into truth or human approval. Trace sidecars and numerical embeddings remain distinct from complete transcripts, model training and provider retention guarantees (MEM-RTE-trace-mining, RT-CMP-embed-client).

Delivery and authority. The next-action account preserves requested recall, automatic event selection and child-input rewriting as separate routes. It does not infer action execution, shared parent context or tool permissions from delivered text (RT-RTE-requested-recall, RT-RTE-auto-delivery, RT-RTE-spawn-context). Independent activation grants, stale cache service, the narrow cache gate, optional-memory failure handling and unframed shell alternatives retain their consequential conditions. The convention account correctly distinguishes caller lifecycle marks from epistemic acceptance, and topic overlap from contradiction or rejection (EPI-OBJ-lifecycle, EPI-RTE-conflict-check). The six-note/800-byte selector is the canonical MEM-RTE-convention-delivery. The scope-loss example is explicitly an implementation deduction about directives; factual preservation remains indeterminate. The framing/priority tension is carried as a consumer question, not resolved by asserted obedience (epistemic authority ledger, RT-BAP-recall-reference).

Production checks. The repair-selection account preserves the command branch's detected-failure and recurrence gates, unknown-outcome countercase, weaker edit fallback, and heuristic disposition criterion. It licenses historical selection, not causal repair acceptance (EPI-RTE-fix-check, EPI-RTE-fix-disposition). Reconciliation supersedes the duplicate epistemic fix objects with MEM-OBJ-fixraw and MEM-OBJ-fixes; the synthesis uses those canonical objects without collapsing the distinct epistemic phases. Rejudgment, labelled candidate fallback and confirmed-only plan remedies remain consumer-specific. Advisory plan findings are not treated as a deny decision or a safety certificate (EPI-RTE-fix-retention, EPI-RTE-fix-selection, EPI-RTE-plan-delivery).

Continuation, standing rules and withdrawal. The continuation and workflow account preserves bounded non-searchable copied state, prior carry/rules, session/workspace selection, privacy and failure tokens, repository warnings and the 4 KiB recovery budget. Successful complete output is correctly scoped to the recovery emitter, not host receipt or deferred-queue retry safety (MEM-OBJ-compaction-data, MEM-OBJ-compaction-state, RT-RTE-compaction-recovery). The inferred passed label is qualified by undetected failure, as required by the epistemic ledger. The selected rules workflow is actually joined by shipped instructions, not invented from unrelated capabilities. The public text distinguishes implemented extraction/distribution from prescribed model interpretation and user selection, retains clipped/deduplicated evidence, partial sync and manual retry, and limits delivery to file outcomes (workflow account, RT-RTE-rules-sync). Handoff, write-back, span restoration and forgetting retain their fidelity and surviving-copy limits (MEM-RTE-session-recovery, MEM-RTE-forget-cleanup).

Assessment and what could change it. The assessment leads with supported durable trace-fed changes and later consumers, then withholds improved capacity and exercised self-improvement. Its theory-builder conditions, criticism-driven improvement, reflection and autonomous theory-building statements are withheld conclusions over the supplied routes, not evidenced system-wide absences. This is consistent with the runtime's lack of a theory-builder classification and the epistemic bounded conclusion. Automatic extraction is not used to infer autonomous theory building; the selected rules workflow has a prescribed user decision. Missing later operation is correctly identified as a missing self-improvement link rather than evidence that retained organization cannot affect behavior. The scenario assessments retain historical association versus repair, bounded continuation versus full restoration, and structural distribution versus consent/compliance. Gold-session membership, warning census and literal coverage remain different evaluator domains, with no claimed score-driven production admission (RT-RTE-retrieval-evaluation, EPI-RTE-offline-scores). Proposed evidence and source changes are conditional assessment changes, not claims that they already exist or guarantee effectiveness.

Settled limits and public readability. The Limitations table carries both report-verification limits and the profile-verification omission with their record citations and prevented comparisons. It also states the consequences of semantic scope loss, inferred outcome labels, external dependencies, incomplete variants and withdrawal/recovery uncertainty. Reconciliation identifies no unresolved inter-report conflict; source-comment contradictions and consumer authority tensions are not falsely recast as report disagreement. The public account explains the source mechanisms without requiring supporting-member context and adds no product ranking, Commonplace recommendation or epistemic grade. Its remaining scoped uncertainty is not a new defect. The three retained local limits below preserve the settled judgments without reopening records or upgrading partial inventories.

Limits

  • MEM-OBJ-sessionfacts states a four-command bound, while the supplied report verification retains an additional verification-command allowance in SRC-1, internal/index/sessionfacts.go. The public Limitations correctly withholds exact four-entry capacity comparisons. The distinction between known exit and merely recorded command, and the trace-derived table account, remain supported; exact capacity requires an account covering the ordinary budget and exception.
  • Alternative-hook coverage remains incomplete in RT-RTE-auto-delivery and the memory coverage. The supplied report verification establishes retention and destructive queue take in SRC-1, cmd/deja/hook_deferred.go; this is faithfully carried in the public continuation account and Limitations. Readers should withhold all-host immediate delivery, complete queue withdrawal and end-to-end retry/receipt guarantees. RT-RTE-compaction-recovery's complete-write bookkeeping supports only that emitter's bounded guarantee, not a queue-to-host acknowledgment guarantee.
  • The supplied profile verification retains omission of default promoted-note distillation from its explicitly partial trace-learning and trace-source inventories. EPI-RTE-promote-distill and MEM-OBJ-notes support automatic extraction, durable admission/reload and later consumption. The public assessment and Limitations carry that branch and withhold complete qualifying-route enumeration and promoted-note route-by-route trace-source comparisons. The existing positive trace-fed findings remain valid; adding the omitted branch would not by itself establish complete coverage or observed improvement.
