A 15-draft harvest_verify batch reported CC1-FAIL=4 and `final SHA None`. Three of the four were the
HARNESS, not the compiler. Checked the tree FIRST (the MISMATCH is a tree alarm, not a result),
reverted to the committed baseline rather than reasoning about a half-applied state, rebuilt ->
d19c9580 BYTE-IDENTICAL. No banked result was ever at risk: the byte-gate cannot manufacture a match,
but it CAN manufacture a verdict — and verdicts are what the backlog and roadmap are built from.
ORDERING PROVED THE CASCADE (R14): items 1-11 are real (9 PLUMBING, 2 DIFF), all before item 12 —
jtbl_carve REFUSING func_8013B83C (§59(3) non-contiguous same-subseg table). Items 13-16 are four
CC1-FAILs on the SAME ov_SC01_077_o0.o = one refused carve counted four times.
THREE DEFECTS FIXED:
1. `_ok` was computed and IGNORED — a refused carve was spliced and built anyway into a guaranteed
Error 33, filed as CC1-FAIL. Now a named CARVE-REFUSED class, skipped (one build cheaper).
2. attempt() never restored on failure, so the tree was dirty BETWEEN drafts — and _jtbl_snapshot()
snapshots the tree AS IT FINDS IT, so a later carve captured an earlier FAILED draft's splice and
its undo faithfully RE-APPLIED it, after the final _write(baseline). That is the entire
`final SHA None` mechanism. Invariant restored: the tree is at baseline except while a draft is
under test (atomic AND bisect branches).
3. The recovery's own `make extract` rc was unchecked (_sh does not raise — §93's sibling). Now loud.
Plus an R32 assertion on the cleanup: at 0 verified a non-empty git status is residue, not a result;
it names the files and the recovery command. It fired correctly on its first real run.
MEASURED RECOVERY (same drafts, clean tree): func_8013B83C -> CARVE-REFUSED; func_801789AC ->
PLUMBING (actionable); func_8017C974 -> DIFF (corroborates its agent's global_alloc spill diagnosis);
func_80140958 -> CC1-FAIL (genuinely its own). final SHA None -> d19c9580; tracked diff empty.
BLAST RADIUS OF §96, HONESTLY: the reconcile_tu span fix unblocked func_80176218 (banked, swept
133/137) and no other draft in the batch. 7 of the 9 PLUMBING are `conflicting types for <the
function itself>` = the DEF-side self-decl axis conform_decls owns — the next lever, now a measured
target list rather than a guess. cookbook §97.
