Memory Plane — Next 19 Steps

Where the program actually is

The next 19 steps

1. 1Close CP2 — record the human-review decision

   CP2 has no reached_at. Nothing downstream may legally start. Write the review decision into program_checkpoints with the census numbers above as the evidence payload.

2. 2Freeze the CP2 denominator as an immutable row

   Snapshot v_provider_cursors into a dated census record. Every later "% complete" claim divides by this number. Without a frozen denominator, backlog percentages are unfalsifiable.

   CP2deterministic
3. 3N005 / E — source, evidence, generated classification

   Classify all 3,225 packages. Raw provider sessions stay immutable provenance (rule 4). Blocks CP3; AUDITOR owns it.

   CP3AUDITOR
4. 4N006 / F — repair existing ingestion before building any new one

   Rule 1: audit before build. chat_stage_expand and memory_ingest_batch exist. Classify each EXISTS / PARTIAL / BROKEN / OBSOLETE / MISSING and repair rather than replace.

5. 5N007 / G — canonical provider envelope

   One envelope both providers normalize into. Do this before mass normalization or 2,913 packages get re-processed twice.

6. 6Re-cursor ChatGPT from the Oct 2025 watermark

   Ten months of ChatGPT sessions sit behind a stale high-watermark. Advance the cursor before normalizing, or the run completes against a denominator that is already wrong.

   CP3deterministic
7. 7N008 / H — historical normalization, Claude first

   Claude is already 137 turn-expanded and 165 canonical-partial — the shortest path to a proven pipeline. Prove on Claude, then run ChatGPT's 2,011.

   CP3CORPUS_ENGINEER
8. 8Clear CP3 automatically on criteria

   CP3 is an automatic gate. Encode the pass criteria as a query, not a judgement call, so it self-clears and cannot be talked past.

   CP3automatic
9. 9N009 / I — hard identity and checkpoint ledger

   Every session gets one durable identity before any compiler writes against it. This is what stops the cleanup problem recurring (objective, §1).

   CP4SUPABASE_ENGINEER
10. 10N012 / L — locks, leases, idempotency, rollback

    Pull this ahead of the collector and compiler. Backfilling 2,913 packages without leases is how you get double-compiled memory and a corrupt corpus.

    CP4SUPABASE_ENGINEER
11. 11N010 / J — local deterministic Closeout Collector

    Runs on the machine, not in a model. Hashes, inventories, cursor math and Git deltas are code-owned per §4 — no LLM judgement in the collector.

    CP4GITHUB_RUNTIME_ENGINEER
12. 12N011 / K — Closeout Compiler V4

    Checkpoint-driven /closeout. Consumes the collector's manifest; never re-derives what the collector already proved.

    CP4SUPABASE_ENGINEER
13. 13N013 / M — Work Episode Manifest, then CP4 synthetic pass

    Run V4 end-to-end on synthetic input. CP4 is human-review and cannot be self-approved by a coding agent (rule 17).

    CP4human review
14. 14N014 / N + N015 / O — segmentation and reconciliation

    CREATE is not the default reconciliation outcome (rule 6). Reconciliation must be able to return MERGE, SUPERSEDE and REJECT — and the 880 already-rejected records prove it does.

    CP5MEMORY_DOMAIN_ENGINEER
15. 15N016 / P + N017 / Q — memory and artifact compilers

    One logical artifact, one current identity (rule 7). Protected finals cannot be silently replaced (rule 8); every revision carries a change reason and predecessor link (rule 9).

    CP5ARTIFACT_CONTROL_ENGINEER
16. 16N018 / R — version invariants at every write boundary

    Enforced in the database, not in prose. An invariant a client can skip is not an invariant.

    CP5ARTIFACT_CONTROL_ENGINEER
17. 17N025 / Y — RED_TEAM acceptance on a real ugly session

    Not a clean fixture. A genuinely messy live session, adversarially reviewed for false completion, provenance breaks and duplicate architecture. Clears CP5.

    CP5human review
18. 18N019 / S + N020 / T — Domain Corpus schema and promotion engine

    Corpus history is immutable; current truth may supersede prior truth when facts change (rule 13). CP6 is human approval, the strictest gate in the program.

    CP6human approval
19. 19N021 / U — Agent Brain Manifests, then open the backfill

    Agents reference corpus brains, never copy them (rule 14). With CP6 approved, N024 / X backfill runs CP7 → CP11 against the frozen denominator from step 2.
