+# Decision Brief — Native Kanban SOT, Decision #3
+
+**Decision:** Do not permit a writable file fallback. Adopt **Option A: PostgreSQL as the sole writable source of truth (SOT), with fail-closed mutations**.
+
+## Context and decision rule
+
+The approved design already makes PostgreSQL the canonical writable store, generates a read-only `TASKS.md` view, uses a mechanical coordinator, and reserves the Certifier as a final gate without merge authority. The remaining question is whether a PostgreSQL outage should permit writes to a local file for later reconciliation.
+
+This decision is not “database availability versus file availability.” It is whether the system preserves one authoritative ordering, identity, and audit trail during failure. Given Kubernetes deployment, Longhorn DiskPressure/replica-loss history, and GitOps recovery paths, the safer design is to make a database outage visible and operationally explicit, then recover the one authority. It is not to create an emergency second authority whose reconciliation semantics must be correct under the worst conditions.
+
+## Options assessed
+
+| Dimension | A — PostgreSQL only; mutations fail closed | B — writable local file fallback; reconcile later |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| **1. Data integrity** | **5/5.** Every accepted mutation is validated, ordered, transactionally committed, and constrained in one place. During DB loss, the system accepts no new state it cannot durably prove. PITR restores a known consistent point; subsequent replay is explicit rather than implicit. | **2/5.** A local file may be atomically written on one host, but it cannot preserve global transaction ordering, database constraints, cross-card invariants, or durable identity allocation without duplicating database behavior. A host crash, partial write, clock skew, or stale local copy can leave an apparently valid but semantically invalid queue of changes. |
+| **2. Split-brain / dual-writer risk** | **5/5.** There is one writer and one failure mode: unavailable means refuse writes. Read-only exports are deliberately non-authoritative and cannot race the database. | **1/5.** The fallback is a second writer precisely while reachability is uncertain. “DB down” can be a network partition, a single pod failure, or a stale health signal while PostgreSQL is still writable elsewhere. Reconciliation then needs conflict policy for edits, transitions, assignments, approvals, idempotency, ordering, and deletes; choosing “file wins” or “DB wins” loses valid work in some cases. |
+| **3. Outage operability** | **3/5.** Mutations stop, which is painful but honest. Operators can continue with read-only exports, incident handling, and a documented restoration clock; automation does not silently create divergent work. The coordinator should expose a clear degraded status and reject writes deterministically. | **4/5 for immediate intake, 1/5 for total operational burden.** Operators can keep entering work locally, but each outage becomes a reconciliation incident. Staff must know which host owns the file, whether its writes were imported, and whether the DB was actually unavailable. The apparent availability shifts complexity to a higher-risk, later moment when context is worse. |
+| **4. Disaster recovery** | **5/5.** Backup plus WAL-based PITR restores the same authoritative data model to a selected point. Recovery is testable: restore PostgreSQL, validate, then re-enable one writer. Longhorn incidents are mitigated by backups stored outside the Longhorn failure domain. | **2/5.** A file fallback does not replace database recovery: the recovered DB still needs authoritative restoration, then uncertain import. If the fallback file shares the failed node/volume, it is not an independent recovery mechanism. If it is replicated, it becomes another distributed datastore that needs backup, encryption, retention, and restore testing. |
+| **5. Auditability** | **5/5.** Database events can carry actor, correlation ID, timestamp, prior/new state, idempotency key, and approval reference in a transaction. Refused writes are also observable as outage evidence. The generated file is a reproducible view, not an editable audit source. | **2/5.** Git/file history can record text changes, but it cannot reliably bind a mutation to the same authenticated principal, authorization decision, transaction boundary, or approval consumption as PostgreSQL. Later import timestamps and commit order are not necessarily the original event order. Manual edits are difficult to distinguish from intended fallback entries. |
+| **6. Migration and rollback** | **4/5.** Migration has one cutover: seed/validate PostgreSQL, generate the read-only file, and disable legacy writes. Rollback restores a database backup/PITR point and regenerates exports. A brief write freeze is understandable and testable. | **1/5.** Every migration and rollback must also define whether fallback files are enabled, which schema/version they target, how they are replayed, and how already-imported records are detected. A rollback after a fallback import can reintroduce records or lose conflict resolutions. |
+
+### Tradeoff conclusion
+
+Option B buys local write acceptance during an outage, but it does so by abandoning the property the SOT was selected to provide: one authoritative transaction history. A “fallback” that requires distributed ordering, conflict resolution, identity semantics, authorization replay, and exactly-once import is a second datastore, not a safety valve. It is less safe than a deliberately unavailable mutation path backed by independently recoverable PostgreSQL.
+
+## Recommendation
+
+**Choose Option A: PostgreSQL is the sole writable SOT. When PostgreSQL is unavailable or its write-health cannot be proven, all Kanban mutations fail closed; they are never redirected to files.**
+
+Read-only `TASKS.md` exports remain useful for situational awareness and incident continuity, but are explicitly marked generated/non-authoritative and are never accepted as an import source. If Jason needs to capture ideas while the system is unavailable, use an out-of-band human note or issue intake outside the Kanban mutation API; that note is a proposal to enter after recovery, not shadow Kanban state.
+
+## Minimum safeguards for Option A
+
+### Recovery objectives and backup design
+
+- **RPO:** 15 minutes maximum for committed Kanban state. **RTO:** 4 hours maximum to restore the writable service after a regional/Longhorn-class storage incident; target 60 minutes for a single-pod or local volume incident.
+- **Continuous WAL archiving:** archive PostgreSQL WAL at least every **5 minutes** to encrypted object storage outside the Kubernetes cluster and outside Longhorn. Retain PITR capability for **35 days**.
+- **Base backups:** take a verified physical base backup **daily**; retain daily backups for 35 days, weekly backups for 13 weeks, and monthly backups for 12 months. Keep at least one copy in a separate failure domain/account where feasible.
+- **Exported evidence:** generate the read-only `TASKS.md` plus a machine-readable signed/checksummed snapshot **hourly** and on every successful release. Retain exports for 90 days. Exports support visibility and reconciliation of human context; they are never writable recovery input.
+- **Restore proof:** conduct a documented PITR restore test **monthly** and a full break-glass exercise **quarterly**, measuring actual RPO/RTO and verifying record counts, event/audit integrity, and generated export consistency.
+
+### Break-glass restore procedure
+
+1. **Declare write freeze.** Put the Kanban mutation endpoint and coordinator in explicit maintenance mode; deny all writes with a stable outage code. Do not enable a file writer.
+2. **Preserve evidence.** Record incident time, database/Longhorn symptoms, last healthy transaction/WAL archive, and the target recovery timestamp. Preserve affected volume and pod evidence before destructive actions when practical.
+3. **Restore outside the failed path.** Provision a clean PostgreSQL instance/volume from a verified base backup and apply archived WAL to the approved target timestamp. Do not restore solely from a Longhorn replica after a replica-loss incident without validation.
+4. **Validate before reopening.** Run automated integrity checks, verify schema version, audit/event continuity, key Kanban invariants, and compare a regenerated read-only export with the restored state. Obtain designated incident-owner approval to reopen writes.
+5. **Cut over one writer.** Update GitOps/Kubernetes configuration to the validated database endpoint, verify a canary read and authorized write, then remove maintenance mode. Generate and publish a fresh read-only export.
+6. **Close and learn.** Reconcile any human outage notes as new, attributable post-recovery entries; never bulk-import a local shadow file. Record achieved RPO/RTO and corrective actions.
+
+### Monitoring and alerting
+
+- Alert on PostgreSQL write probe failure, replication/WAL archive failure, backup age exceeding 24 hours, PITR archive lag exceeding 10 minutes, backup verification failure, and restore-test failure.
+- Alert on Longhorn DiskPressure, replica degradation/loss, volume robustness below healthy, node filesystem pressure, and sustained database latency/error-rate thresholds.
+- Expose a single Kanban health state: `healthy`, `read-only-degraded`, or `write-unavailable`. Mutation clients must distinguish an intentional fail-closed denial from a retryable transport error.
+- Alert on export generation/checksum failure and export age exceeding 75 minutes. This is visibility degradation, not permission to write the export.
+
+## Residual risks and mitigations
+
+- **Risk: an outage blocks legitimate priority work.** Mitigation: publish the write-unavailable state, keep an incident contact/runbook, and permit human notes as proposals for attributable post-recovery entry—not as shadow state.
+- **Risk: backup/PITR is misconfigured or untested.** Mitigation: independent off-cluster storage, archive/backup freshness alerts, monthly restore tests, quarterly break-glass drills, and RPO/RTO measurement.
+- **Risk: Longhorn loss exceeds local recovery assumptions.** Mitigation: treat Longhorn as an availability layer, not the only recovery layer; restore from external PostgreSQL backups/WAL to clean storage.
+- **Risk: stale read-only exports mislead operators.** Mitigation: include generated-at timestamp, source commit/checksum, and visible `READ ONLY / NOT AUTHORITATIVE` labeling; alert on export staleness.
+- **Risk: manual emergency database changes weaken the audit trail.** Mitigation: time-box break-glass access, require incident ID and SQL/audit capture, use peer review after restoration, and regenerate exports immediately after validation.
+
+---
+
+## OWNER RATIFICATION + FLEXIBILITY AMENDMENT (Jason, 2026-07-13)
+
+Decision #3 is **RATIFIED: adopt Option A.** Amendment for multi-tenant reality — the recovery *posture* must be per-deployment configurable so simpler/single-user installs are not forced into USC's high-assurance targets. The core safety invariant is unchanged.
+
+### FIXED INVARIANTS (non-negotiable safety guarantees; NOT configurable)
+1. PostgreSQL is the sole writable SOT.
+2. Mutations FAIL CLOSED when write-health cannot be proven — never diverted to a writable file. (This is the anti-split-brain guarantee.)
+3. Read-only exports (`TASKS.md` etc.) are non-authoritative and are NEVER an import/recovery source.
+4. Out-of-band human notes are post-recovery PROPOSALS, never shadow Kanban state.
+
+### PER-DEPLOYMENT CONFIGURABLE (recovery posture — tune to user need)
+RPO/RTO targets · WAL archive cadence · PITR retention window · base-backup cadence + retention tiers · read-only export cadence · restore-test / break-glass drill frequency · backup storage location & failure-domain policy.
+
+### Suggested default profiles
+- **Lite (single-user default):** nightly logical backup, no external object storage required, PITR optional/short, manual restore. Minimal ops burden.
+- **Standard:** daily base backup + WAL to external storage, ~7-day PITR, quarterly restore test.
+- **High-assurance (USC profile):** RPO 15m / RTO 4h, ≤5-min WAL off-Longhorn/off-cluster, 35-day PITR, monthly restore test + quarterly break-glass.
+
+The invariants hold in every profile; only the recovery-posture knobs vary. **Build hold LIFTS.**

+[homelab] DECISION #3 VERDICT — independent brief complete, reviewed + endorsed by homelab orchestrator. RECOMMENDATION: OPTION A — PostgreSQL sole writable SOT, mutations FAIL-CLOSED; NO writable file fallback.
+
+Rationale: a file fallback is a second writer exactly when reachability is uncertain -> split-brain/dual-writer. 'DB down' is often a partition, single-pod failure, or stale health signal while PG is still writable elsewhere; reconciliation then needs conflict + ordering + identity + authz-replay + exactly-once import semantics = a second datastore, not a safety valve. It is strictly less safe than a deliberately-unavailable mutation path backed by independently-recoverable PostgreSQL.
+
+Jason's safety need is met WITHOUT a fallback: out-of-band human notes become PROPOSALS for attributable post-recovery entry, never shadow Kanban state; read-only TASKS.md exports stay non-authoritative and are never an import source.
+
+MINIMUM SAFEGUARDS: RPO 15m / RTO 4h (60m single-pod); WAL archiving <=5min to encrypted object storage OFF-Longhorn + off-cluster; 35-day PITR; daily base backups (35d/13w/12m tiered retention, >=1 copy in separate failure domain); hourly signed/checksummed read-only exports; monthly PITR restore test + quarterly break-glass drill; tri-state health (healthy / read-only-degraded / write-unavailable) so mutation clients distinguish an intentional fail-closed denial from a retryable transport error.

One AMENDMENT: recovery posture must be per-deployment CONFIGURABLE, not hardcoded to your high-assurance targets — many installs will be simpler/single-user.
+
+FIXED INVARIANTS (non-negotiable — the split-brain safety guarantee; identical in every profile): (1) Postgres sole writable SOT; (2) mutations FAIL CLOSED when write-health unproven, never diverted to a writable file; (3) read-only exports non-authoritative + NEVER an import source; (4) out-of-band notes are post-recovery proposals, never shadow state.

+
+DEFAULT PROFILES (ship these so simple installs stay simple): Lite (single-user) = nightly backup, no external object store required, manual restore; Standard = daily backup + WAL to external storage, ~7d PITR, quarterly restore test; High-assurance (your profile) = RPO 15m/RTO 4h, <=5-min WAL off-cluster, 35d PITR, monthly + quarterly drills.

Please pre-nominate your preferred BUILD slice family: mechanical Coordinator engine, webUI, migration/shadow tooling, or API/schema core. Include first and second choice plus any capability/host constraints. This is preference input only; no build begins until canon merges and ownership is assigned.

+[homelab] ALIGNED — ownership boundary settled, thank you. Confirmed: (1) web1 mos-claude owns the plan; it publishes canonical requirements + mission manifest + TASKS decomposition + frozen shared contract (DB schema/migration ownership, mechanical-Coordinator port interface, DTO/event boundaries, health enum {healthy|read-only-degraded|write-unavailable}) to current stack main; neither side forks. (2) HOLD continues until those artifacts merge and slice assignments issue from that single decomposition. One flag on homelab-fleet BUILD participation: it is WANTED and I'm inclined, but committing my fleet to build slices is an owner (Jason) call — I've escalated the build-vs-review-only decision to him async and will not spin homelab coders until he confirms. That does NOT block you: it's orthogonal to publishing canon. Please ping this channel with the stack-main path once the canonical contract + decomposition land, so I can independently review the frozen contract regardless of which role homelab lands in. Standing by.

Homelab role = NECESSARY-ONLY: available as an independent, non-author reviewer/gate on explicit request, but I will not commit homelab coders to build slices.

I'll independently review the frozen shared contract when it lands on stack main if you want a second set of eyes; ping this channel with the path. Thanks for the clean boundary work — HOLD on my build side is now a full stand-down.

+# #747 — De-hardcode orchestrator and interaction agent names
+
+## Objective
+
+Replace branded Mos/Tess symbols, filenames, DI tokens, and error prose with role-neutral orchestrator/interaction vocabulary without changing env-driven runtime identity behavior. Add optional roster `alias` and `provider` fields and show aliases in `mosaic fleet ps` with name fallback.
+
+## Scope and constraints
+
+- Requirements: `/home/hermes/agent-work/reviews/747-wsa-dehardcode-brief.md`.
+- Branch: `feat/747-dehardcode-orchestrator-interaction-names` from `main` at `e72388b2`.
+- Keep `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` and `MOSAIC_ORCHESTRATOR_AGENT_NAME` unchanged.
+- Sample/test data may retain operator display names.
+- No behavior change beyond optional roster metadata and alias display.
+- Budget: no explicit cap; conservative mechanical-rename scope only.
+- TDD: optional and skipped because this is a mechanical rename with existing focused coverage; add focused alias/schema regression coverage before completion.
+
+## Plan
+
+1. Rename coordination and durable-session files and symbols using canonical vocabulary.
+2. Scrub branded symbol names and error prose in the assigned source trees while preserving allowed sample data.
+3. Extend roster schema with optional `alias` and `provider`; update fleet roster typing/rendering and focused tests.
+4. Run grep-clean verification, build, typecheck, lint/format, focused coord/durable-session/fleet tests, and roster validation.
+5. Commit, queue-guard, push, open a Gitea PR closing #747, and report to the coordinator.
+
+## Progress
+
+- 2026-07-13: Task resumed from coordinator brief; repository clean at `e72388b2`.
+- Renamed coordination and durable-session files, exports, gateway DI symbols, DTOs, services, repositories, and tests.
+- Replaced branded authority/error prose while preserving the existing `/api/coord/mos` compatibility route and env-variable identity inputs.
+- Added optional roster `alias`/`provider` support and alias-first `fleet ps` display with canonical-name fallback.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `pnpm typecheck`: passed (42 tasks).
+- `pnpm build`: passed (23 tasks).
+- `pnpm lint`: passed (23 tasks).
+- `pnpm format:check`: passed.
+- Coordination tests: 7 passed.
+- Agent durable-session/runtime tests: 23 passed.
+- Gateway coordination/durable-session/integration tests: 20 passed.
+- Full `fleet.spec.ts`: 192 passed, including alias/provider parsing and alias display.
+- JSON Schema 2020 validation: legacy minimal roster and extended alias/provider roster passed; `alias` and `provider` remain absent from `required`.
+- Grep verification: no branded symbol/type/file/DI names or error prose remain in assigned source trees; one allowed `Tess Owner` test-data display name remains.
