+## Fleet Declarative Configuration Management Workstream (FCM, #758)
+
+### Problem and objective
+
+The local Mosaic fleet has a roster, generated agent environment files, user-systemd units, tmux
+sessions, heartbeat files, examples, profiles, and separate gateway-backed agent records. These
+planes have drifted and are not one safe operator lifecycle. The objective is one **local fleet
+roster** as the desired-state SSOT, with generated environment, systemd, tmux, and heartbeat
+artifacts as rebuildable projections; it does not merge the local fleet control plane with the
+gateway-backed agent catalog.
+
+### Normative requirements

+| `FCM-REQ-04` | A fresh create SHALL persist `enabled:true` and `desired_state:stopped` unless an explicit persisted start is requested. The model SHALL distinguish enabled state, persisted desired state, and observed state. Migration, apply, reboot, and rollback SHALL not start an agent that was observed stopped before cutover.                                                                                                                                                |

Optional local overrides SHALL be parsed as strict data, may not shadow authoritative generated keys, and may not contain arbitrary commands, credential values, channels, or unknown `MOSAIC_AGENT_*` keys. Forbidden legacy keys, including `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND`, SHALL be privately quarantined before launch and reported only by key name and content hash.                     |

Team-leader capacity is bounded by an orchestrator-issued lease, and interaction is request/status only. Tess and Ultron are configurable instance/display names, not required machine identities. |

+
+### Acceptance criteria
+
+1. `AC-FCM-01`: A valid local v2 roster can be parsed from YAML or JSON, validated structurally and semantically through the shared resolver, and rendered canonically; invalid fields, duplicate names, unresolved classes, unsupported runtime/model combinations, socket ambiguity, and incompatible options fail closed.
+2. `AC-FCM-02`: `plan` reports deterministic desired-versus-observed differences for roster, generated environment, systemd enablement, tmux/session, heartbeat, installed-asset revision, and provable orphans without mutation; `apply --check` reports drift without mutation.
+3. `AC-FCM-03`: Local create/update/delete is generation-guarded, atomic, idempotent, and safe by default; it permits supported runtime/model/harness/effort/workdir/role changes without direct editing of generated environment files and does not start a newly created agent unless explicitly persisted.
+4. `AC-FCM-04`: The generated-env/local-override launch chain rejects generated-key shadowing, arbitrary command override, unknown keys, shell evaluation, and sensitive-value diagnostics before any agent starts; known-safe legacy input is regenerated or strictly relocated, and forbidden input is quarantined.
+5. `AC-FCM-05`: Local lifecycle reconciliation implements the persisted/transient start-stop rules, exact default/named tmux socket targeting, systemd/tmux status, stale generated state, unmanaged-session reporting, and rollback without surprise restarts or fuzzy destructive targeting.
+6. `AC-FCM-06`: A v1 roster migration previews field-by-field disposition, preserves observed stopped/running state, inventories rather than reconciles remote/schema-only entries, supports a canary and rollback, and classifies every shipped example, profile, and service preset according to the M0 inventory.
+7. `AC-FCM-07`: Required role authority is validated: validator certificate is consumed but does not merge, merge-gate is the sole merge authority, team-leader leases do not change roster/credentials/authority, and interaction/Tess cannot claim orchestration or merge powers.
+8. `AC-FCM-08`: Documentation, examples, migration, troubleshooting, operational recovery, package/update asset drift, schema/example/profile validation, independent code/security review, validator certificate, and terminal-green CI are complete before #758 closes.
+
+### M0 implementation gate
+
+No source, schema, role, example, profile, systemd, or live-fleet change is authorized before M0
+lands. M0 consists only of these normative requirements, the complete task DAG, the scoped
+documentation IA checklist, and the legacy example/profile disposition inventory. Subsequent cards
+are defined in [docs/TASKS.md](./TASKS.md) and must remain one card/one PR.

+## Official Channel Plugin Workstream (#756)
+
+### Problem and Objective
+
+The Discord plugin currently couples Discord event handling, gateway bridging, and reply routing in one implementation and activates only on mentions. Mosaic needs an official channel adapter that behaves the same no matter whether the bound logical agent currently runs through Claude, Codex, Pi, OpenCode, or a future harness. The Discord connection and conversation address must remain stable while the gateway changes the runtime provider behind that logical session.
+
+The objective is to make Discord the first implementation of a transport-neutral official channel contract, with explicit authorization and deterministic channel/thread routing that future Matrix, Slack, and other adapters can share.
+
+### Scope
+
+#### In Scope
+
+1. `CHN-001`: Transport-neutral channel adapter, route, message, attachment, authorization-principal, response-target, and health contracts in `@mosaicstack/types`, including trusted per-binding logical-agent configuration selection.
+2. `CHN-002`: Stable channel conversation addresses based on logical agent plus channel/thread identity; harness, model, and runtime-provider IDs are forbidden from channel session keys.
+3. `DSC-001`: An authorized untagged message in a configured agent-bound channel routes to the agent and receives its response in that channel.
+4. `DSC-002`: A bot mention in a configured parent channel creates a Discord thread, or reuses the thread already attached to that same native message; the mentioned turn and subsequent thread turns route and respond in that thread.
+5. `DSC-003`: A message already inside an authorized thread inherits authorization from its configured parent and never attempts a nested thread.
+6. `DSC-004`: Guild, parent channel, user, pairing, and role authorization remains default-deny before thread creation or gateway dispatch.
+7. `DSC-005`: Discord service authentication, HMAC envelope integrity, replay protection, attachments, approvals, response chunking, and correlation behavior remain intact.
+8. `DSC-006`: The Discord adapter exposes lifecycle and health behavior through the shared channel contract without importing a harness SDK.
+
+#### Out of Scope
+
+1. The logical-agent lease, fencing epoch, execution grant, checkpoint, or cross-harness takeover implementation tracked by #754/#755.
+2. Dynamic Discord authorization administration in the web UI.
+3. Multi-guild tenant isolation, DMs, slash commands, voice, reactions, or production bot deployment.
+4. Implementing Matrix or Slack adapters in this slice.
+
+### Non-Functional Requirements
+
+1. **Security:** no thread or dispatch side effect occurs until guild, parent channel, user, pairing, role, and bounded per-user/channel rate checks pass; attachment metadata is shape- and size-bounded; credentials never enter source, messages, session keys, or logs.
+2. **Portability:** channel contracts and stable conversation IDs contain no Claude, Codex, Pi, OpenCode, model, process, or provider-specific field; each configuration-owned binding selects its trusted logical agent without changing the channel identity.
+3. **Reliability:** repeated messages for one channel/thread resolve the same conversation handle; reconnecting the adapter does not require a harness-specific rebinding.
+4. **Maintainability:** Discord-specific API translation stays in the Discord package; gateway and future adapters depend on transport-neutral contracts.
+5. **Observability:** thread creation or routing failure is reported without message content or credential material.
+
+### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. `AC-CHN-01`: Contract and behavior tests prove the plugin route contains only logical agent plus channel/thread identity and produces the same stable conversation handle regardless of underlying harness selection.
+2. `AC-CHN-02`: A mentioned authorized parent-channel message creates a thread (or reuses its already-attached thread), dispatches to the thread conversation, and targets the response to that thread.
+3. `AC-CHN-03`: An untagged authorized parent-channel message dispatches to the parent conversation and targets the response to the parent channel.
+4. `AC-CHN-04`: Untagged follow-ups inside an authorized thread dispatch and respond in that same thread without creating a nested thread.
+5. `AC-CHN-05`: Unauthorized guilds, channels, users, unpaired users, insufficient roles, and rate-limited senders produce no thread and no gateway dispatch.
+6. `AC-CHN-06`: Shared channel contracts are exported from `@mosaicstack/types`, Discord implements the lifecycle/health seam, and no harness SDK is imported by the plugin.
+7. `AC-CHN-07`: Focused routing/auth tests, package tests, typecheck, lint, formatting, coverage, independent code/security review, and terminal-green CI pass.
+
+### Constraints, Risks, and Assumptions
+
+- Dependency: Mosaic gateway remains the policy, durable-session, audit, and runtime-provider boundary.
+- Constraint: This work must not modify orchestrator-to-Pi migration or #754/#755 lease/fencing files.
+- Risk: accepting untagged messages could create noisy or unintended agent input. Mitigation: only explicitly configured channels and paired, role-authorized users are accepted, with bounded per-user/channel message and thread rates.
+- Risk: Discord thread creation can fail because of channel permissions, archived state, or API rate limits. Mitigation: fail without dispatching a turn whose response destination cannot be honored, and emit sanitized diagnostics.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` Configured channels are dedicated agent interaction surfaces, so authorized untagged human messages are intentional agent input.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` Mention in a parent channel selects a public thread; messages already in a thread remain there because Discord has no nested threads.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` One Discord bot may serve multiple configuration-owned logical-agent bindings.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` Static allowlists and paired-user roles are the authorization administration surface for this slice.
+
+### Testing and Delivery Intent
+
+Use TDD for remote-ingress routing and permission boundaries. Required evidence includes parent-channel mention, untagged parent message, existing-thread follow-up, existing-thread mention, thread reuse, unauthorized side-effect denial, stable harness-neutral conversation identity, adapter health, and regression coverage for signed envelopes and approvals. Deliver through issue #756, a reviewed squash PR to `main`, terminal-green CI, and issue closure.

+## Mos Runtime Portability Workstream (MOS-PORT)
+
+### Problem and Objective
+
+Mos is currently identified partly by a harness-native session and communication process. Replacement/rebinding exists, but no gateway-enforced logical identity or fencing prevents a stale harness from continuing to reply or execute effects after takeover.
+
+The objective is to make Mos a server-derived logical Mosaic identity whose authority can move safely among runtime connectors. The gateway owns identity, lease, policy, and audit; harnesses remain replaceable adapters.
+
+### M1 Requirements
+
+1. `MOS-PORT-ID-001`: Define a normalized logical-agent identity independent of Claude Code, Pi, Codex, tmux, Matrix, and provider-native session IDs.
+2. `MOS-PORT-LEASE-001`: Persist one exclusive connector lease per tenant/logical-agent/binding with CAS acquisition, monotonic fencing epoch, TTL, heartbeat, explicit release, and takeover.
+3. `MOS-PORT-FENCE-001`: Bind every connector dispatch/execution grant to the current server-derived tenant, logical identity, binding, connector, scopes, expiry, and lease epoch.
+4. `MOS-PORT-FENCE-002`: Reject and audit stale, expired, forged, cross-tenant, cross-binding, and unauthorized grants before connector, channel, provider, or tool side effects.
+5. `MOS-PORT-OBS-001`: Emit credential-safe correlation/audit events for lease acquire, renew, takeover, reject, release, and expiry.
+6. `MOS-PORT-ARCH-001`: Runtime/provider adapters consume normalized lease context without adding harness-native schemas to Mosaic core.
+
+### M1 Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. `AC-MOS-PORT-01`: Two contenders for one binding cannot simultaneously hold current authority under concurrency.
+2. `AC-MOS-PORT-02`: Successful takeover increments the fencing epoch and every operation from the old epoch fails closed before side effects.
+3. `AC-MOS-PORT-03`: Gateway/database restart preserves lease and epoch state; expired leases can be recovered only through the authorized takeover path.
+4. `AC-MOS-PORT-04`: Cross-tenant, cross-agent, cross-binding, forged, and expired lease/grant cases are denied and audited.
+5. `AC-MOS-PORT-05`: Unit, migration, repository close/reopen, concurrency, abuse, gateway integration, independent security review, CI, and documentation gates pass.
+
+### Deferred to Later #754 Milestones
+
+Canonical checkpoint/handoff payloads, exactly-once connector receipts, concrete Claude/Pi/Codex adapters, channel cutover, and full cross-harness failover/rollback E2E are explicitly out of M1 scope.

 6. ASSUMPTION: **Log summarization uses Haiku-tier LLM by default, configurable.** Haiku is well-suited for summarization (compression, not generation — source material is in context). Guardrails: structured output via Zod schema (force extraction of decisions/tools/outcomes/errors as discrete fields), chunked per-session processing (no bulk conflation), extraction-focused prompts. Raw logs stay in hot tier (7 days) as safety net. Users can override the summarization model via routing engine config if they want higher fidelity.

-2. `ChannelMessage` — the canonical message format that flows through the system.
+1. `OfficialChannelAdapter` — transport lifecycle and connection health.
+2. `ChannelMessageDto` / `ChannelAttachmentDto` — canonical transport data.
+3. `ChannelConversationRouteDto` — stable logical-agent conversation and authorization address.
+4. `ChannelResponseTargetDto` — channel/thread destination for replies.
 
-All channel-specific translation logic lives inside the adapter implementation. The rest of Mosaic works exclusively with `ChannelMessage` objects.
+All channel-specific translation logic lives inside the adapter implementation. Runtime selection does not: gateway durable-session and provider services may rebind the logical session from Claude to Codex, Pi, OpenCode, or another harness without reconnecting the channel adapter.

 ```
 
+The small lifecycle seam lets the gateway host official plugins uniformly without moving native message translation into gateway core. Message ingress remains adapter-owned; gateway policy, durable session routing, auditing, and runtime/provider selection remain gateway-owned.
+
+### Stable conversation route
+
+```typescript
+interface ChannelConversationRouteDto {
+  bindingId: string;
+  logicalAgentId: string;
+  conversationId: string;
+  channelName: string;
+  authorizationChannelId: string;
+  responseTarget: { channelId: string; threadId?: string };
+}
+```
+
+Harness, provider, model, process, and native runtime-session identifiers are forbidden from this route. Runtime adapters consume the gateway's durable logical-session binding; channel adapters consume only the stable route and response target.
+
+### Typed ingress and egress ports
+
+`ChannelIngressPort` is the transport-neutral direct-integration seam for official adapters. The current deployed Discord adapter preserves its existing HMAC-signed Socket.IO compatibility ingress so gateway-side service authentication, replay protection, approval handling, and correlation semantics remain unchanged; it normalizes the same `ChannelIngressDto` before signing. The adapter uses a supplied `ChannelIngressPort` directly when a future gateway registration provides one. New adapters must use the shared ports rather than adding channel branches to gateway core.
+
+`ChannelBindingDto` contains the configuration-owned workspace/channel→logical-agent mapping and paired external principals; credentials are absent. After native allowlist, pairing, and role checks pass, an adapter submits `ChannelIngressDto` to `ChannelIngressPort.receive()`. It includes the normalized message, `ChannelAuthorizedPrincipalDto`, operation, correlation ID, native message ID, and stable route. Unauthorized input never reaches the port.
+
+Gateway policy and runtime routing produce `ChannelEgressDto`, which `ChannelEgressPort.send()` delivers to the route's response target. Discord's existing HMAC envelope is its authenticated wire encoding of this boundary; future Matrix/Slack adapters use their native authenticated transports while preserving the same actor/operation/correlation semantics.
+
 ### Adapter Registration
 
-Adapters are registered with the `ChannelRegistry` service at startup. The registry calls `connect()` on each adapter and monitors `health()` on a configurable interval (default: 30 s).
+Adapters are registered with the gateway plugin host at startup. The host calls `start()`/`stop()` and may monitor `health()` on a configurable interval. A richer dynamic `ChannelRegistry` remains a compatible future extension of this lifecycle contract.

+
+### Discord routing and thread policy
+
+A configured Discord binding maps `(guildId, parentChannelId)` to a stable logical agent and a trusted gateway agent-config ID. Gateway verifies that configuration's name matches the binding logical agent before session creation. The stable conversation handle is derived from logical agent plus response channel/thread and never includes the active harness, provider, model, process, or agent-config ID.
+
+| Inbound location/trigger                   | Conversation and response target                                |
+| ------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Authorized untagged parent-channel message | Parent channel; response is sent in-channel                     |
+| Authorized bot mention in parent channel   | Thread already attached to that message, or a new public thread |
+| Authorized message already in a thread     | Existing thread; no repeated mention and no nested thread       |
+| `/approve` or `/stop <approval>`           | Current parent/thread durable session; no new topic is created  |
+
+Authorization order is fixed: guild allowlist → parent-channel allowlist → user allowlist → configured binding/pairing → operation role → per-user/channel message and thread rate limits → thread creation/dispatch. A normal Discord channel's category parent is never treated as the thread authorization parent. If requested thread creation fails, dispatch does not occur because the adapter cannot honor the response target.

+Gateway identity-linking policy resolves a channel-native user identifier to a Mosaic `userId` and produces `ChannelAuthorizedPrincipalDto`.

 ## Error Handling Conventions
 
-- `connect()` must throw a structured error (subclass of `ChannelConnectError`) if the initial connection cannot be established within a reasonable timeout (default: 10 s).
-- `sendMessage()` must throw `ChannelSendError` on terminal failures (auth revoked, channel not found). Transient failures (rate limit, network blip) should be retried internally with exponential backoff before throwing.
+- `start()` must establish the native channel transport or throw a structured connection error. An adapter hosted inside the gateway must not wait for a loopback connection to that same not-yet-listening process; it starts the native transport, lets Socket.IO reconnect, and reports `degraded` until both links are ready.
+- `ChannelEgressPort.send()` implementations must throw a typed terminal error for revoked auth, an invalid route, or a missing channel. Only transient rate/network/server failures are retried with bounded exponential backoff; Discord retries reuse a stable enforced nonce to prevent duplicate chunks, while permanent 4xx failures are not retried.
 - `health()` must never throw — it returns `{ status: 'disconnected' }` on error.
 - Adapters must emit structured logs with `{ channel: adapter.name, event, ... }` metadata for observability.

+# Mos Runtime Portability M1 — Logical Identity and Fencing
+
+## Boundary
+
+M1 separates the logical Mosaic agent from any Claude, Pi, Codex, tmux, Matrix, or provider-native session. The normalized identity is:
+
+```text
+(tenant_id, logical_agent_id, binding_id)
+```
+
+`logical_agent_id` is a server-owned stable identifier. A connector is a replaceable holder of a lease for one binding; it is not the agent identity.
+
+## Durable lease model
+
+PostgreSQL table `logical_agent_connector_leases` has one unique row per identity/binding tuple. The current row records:
+
+- an opaque lease UUID;
+- connector ID and normalized allowed scopes;
+- a positive decimal fencing epoch stored as PostgreSQL `bigint`;
+- acquired, heartbeat, expiry, release, and update timestamps.
+
+Initial acquisition is insert-only. An existing active row causes `lease_held`. An expired or released row causes `takeover_required`; ordinary acquisition cannot recover it. Authorized takeover uses compare-and-swap against the expected epoch, rotates the lease UUID, and increments the epoch atomically. Heartbeat and release match the full identity, binding, connector, lease UUID, and epoch.
+
+The companion `connector_lease_audit_log` is append-only metadata. It stores lifecycle event, outcome/reason, identity/binding/connector, epoch, correlation ID, and timestamp. It deliberately excludes scopes, grant objects, payloads, approval references, tokens, and credentials.
+
+## Execution grants
+
+`ConnectorLeaseCoordinator` issues a short-lived internal grant only after rereading the durable current lease. Defense-in-depth caps leases at 5 minutes and grants at 30 seconds by default; constructor options may tighten these limits. A grant is bound to tenant, logical agent, binding, connector, lease UUID, scope subset, expiry, and epoch.
+
+Validation occurs immediately before adapter invocation and rereads PostgreSQL. The adapter receives only `ConnectorExecutionContext`; harness-native schemas remain behind the adapter. Validation denies:
+
+- grants not minted by the current gateway process (including cloned/forged objects);
+- expired grants or leases;
+- released leases;
+- stale epochs or replaced connector/lease UUIDs;
+- missing/cross-tenant/cross-agent/cross-binding leases;
+- scopes not authorized by both grant and current lease.
+
+A gateway restart intentionally invalidates process-local grants. The durable lease and epoch survive, and a fresh grant may be issued only after current-lease and gateway-policy validation.
+
+## Concurrency and side-effect rule
+
+The database CAS determines the sole current holder. A successful takeover makes every old-epoch validation fail. Connector adapters must consume and propagate the normalized lease epoch/context so downstream effect boundaries can also fence races that occur after gateway validation.
+
+M1 does not provide exactly-once receipts or a side-effect journal. Those remain later #754 work; callers must not infer exactly-once delivery from lease fencing.
+
+## Extension boundary
+
+`ConnectorLeaseService` is the gateway-owned policy surface. Every policy decision receives the normalized requested scopes and TTL (or explicit `null` where no TTL applies), so a concrete policy can enforce least privilege and duration limits. Its production default policy denies every lease/grant operation until a server-configured connector policy is supplied. No M1 HTTP endpoint accepts caller-controlled tenant or logical identity, and no concrete Claude/Pi/Codex adapter or channel cutover is included.

+
+**Issue:** #758 · **Scope:** M0 documentation gate for the local fleet declarative-configuration program.
+
+This checklist is an acceptance contract for documentation and examples. It does not authorize
+schema, runtime, systemd, role, profile, or live-fleet changes. An item is complete only when its
+named artifact exists, is linked from the fleet documentation entry point, and its evidence is
+recorded in the M0 task/PR.
+
+## M0 baseline acceptance
+
+- [ ] `docs/PRD.md` states the roster as desired-state SSOT; generated environment, systemd,
+      tmux, and heartbeat artifacts as non-authoritative projections; and fail-closed handling of
+      unsupported or quarantined legacy input.
+- [ ] `docs/PRD.md` defines the required classes and authority boundary: `validator` certifies but
+      does not merge; `merge-gate` remains sole approve-to-land/merge authority; `team-leader`
+      capacity is lease-bounded; `interaction` is request/status only; instance names such as Tess
+      and Ultron remain configurable.
+- [ ] `docs/PRD.md` defines local lifecycle semantics for `enabled`, persisted desired state, and
+      observed state, including stopped-state preservation through migration, apply, and reboot.
+- [ ] `docs/PRD.md` defines the generated-env/local-override boundary, explicitly denies arbitrary
+      command overrides in M1–M5, and requires key-name/hash-only quarantine diagnostics.
+- [ ] `docs/PRD.md` identifies the M1–M5 local-tmux scope and excludes remote reconciliation,
+      connector mutation, secret references, arbitrary commands/channels, gateway convergence, and
+      UI configuration storage.
+- [ ] `docs/TASKS.md` contains the complete M0–M5 one-card/one-PR dependency DAG for #758 with
+      agent tier, branch, dependency, estimate, and evidence expectations.
+- [ ] `docs/fleet/LEGACY-EXAMPLE-PROFILE-DISPOSITION-INVENTORY.md` classifies every current shipped

-3. `start-agent-session.sh` has no `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` set, so it falls through to the default
-   (line ~44):
-   ```sh
-   MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND="mosaic yolo $MOSAIC_AGENT_RUNTIME${MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL:+ --model $MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL}"
-   ```
-4. The launcher bakes `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` into the pane command (line ~118), so `composeContract`
-   can inject the Fleet-Comms cheat-sheet for that role.
+`<name>.env.generated` is complete, deterministic, and written only by Mosaic. Its ordered keys are:
 
-That is the whole worker path: roster → `.env` → `mosaic yolo <runtime>` → seeded pane.
-
-## Orchestrator fold (PATH A — ships today)
-
-The orchestrator is **just another roster agent** launched through the canonical path — not a
-snowflake script.
-
-| Piece              | Value                               |
-| ------------------ | ----------------------------------- |
-| host-side launcher | `orchestrator-launch.sh`            |
-| systemd unit       | `mosaic-fleet-orchestrator.service` |
-| tmux session       | `orchestrator` (role-named)         |
-
-Set its launch command via `fleet/agents/orchestrator.env`:
-
-```sh
-MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND='mosaic yolo claude --channels plugin:discord@<channel>'
+```dotenv
+MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME=<roster name>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_CLASS=<roster class>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_RUNTIME=<roster runtime>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL=<roster model hint>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_REASONING=<roster reasoning>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_TOOL_POLICY=<roster tool policy>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_WORKDIR=<absolute roster work directory>
+MOSAIC_TMUX_SOCKET=<roster socket or empty>
 ```
 
-When `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` is set, `start-agent-session.sh`'s `if [ -z "$MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND" ]`
-guard (line ~41) is false, so the line-44 default — **including its hardcoded `yolo`** — is skipped
-entirely. The override fully controls the runtime and flags. Routing through `mosaic yolo claude`
-(rather than a raw `claude` invocation) is what gives the orchestrator the same full
-`composeContract` seeding + Fleet-Comms cheat-sheet as every worker, with `--channels` and any
-other flags passed straight through to the `claude` binary.
+The generated launch contract supports `claude`, `codex`, `opencode`, and `pi`. `mosaic fleet add`
+rejects another runtime before it writes the roster or modifies generated, local, or quarantine state.
+The legacy dogfood stub remains an observability-only canary on its separate `mosaic-factory` socket;
+it has no generated-launch adapter and cannot be added through this path.
 
-## Launch gotchas
+`<name>.env.local` is optional and may contain only non-secret machine data:
 
-1. **Flag conflict.** `mosaic yolo claude` already injects `--dangerously-skip-permissions`. Do
-   **not** also pass `--permission-mode bypassPermissions` — the `claude` binary would receive both.
-   Use `mosaic yolo claude …` alone (yolo covers the unattended posture), **or** non-yolo
-   `mosaic claude --permission-mode bypassPermissions …`. Never mix the two.
-2. **`MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` must reach the pane.** The launcher bakes it from the instance name, and
-   `composeContract` gates the Fleet-Comms block on it (`launch.ts`, in `composeContract`) — **and**
-   the role must be a member of `roster.yaml`, or the block resolves empty.
-3. **`launchRuntime` guards.** `mosaic yolo claude` runs `checkSoul` / `checkRuntime` /
-   `checkSequentialThinking`. The host needs `SOUL.md` and the sequential-thinking MCP, or the
-   launch aborts (a raw `claude` invocation skipped these checks). Dry-run the composed command in a
-   throwaway tmux session before swapping a live launcher.

-## Why per-agent `.env` survives upgrades (#632)
+Paths must be safe absolute paths and the heartbeat interval must be a positive integer. Projection,
+local, and quarantine files must be private regular files; the managed directories must be real,
+private, non-symlink paths. Violations fail closed before tmux interaction.
 
-`install.sh` `PRESERVE_PATHS` includes `fleet/*.yaml`, `fleet/agents`, and `fleet/run`, so
-`mosaic update`'s framework re-seed **preserves** your roster and per-agent `.env` overrides
-(glob-aware `cp` fallback; matching TS parity in `file-adapter.ts`). Before #632, an auto re-seed
-could wipe them — which is exactly why PATH A's `.env` override is safe to rely on now.
+## Legacy input and diagnostics
 
-## Inspecting the comms wiring
+A legacy `<name>.env` is input only during projection generation. Roster-owned keys are regenerated;
+valid allowed local data can move to `.env.local`; invalid legacy input is privately retained at
+`<name>.env.quarantine`. Neither legacy nor quarantine files are launch authority.
 
-- `mosaic fleet comms-block <role>` prints the Fleet-Comms cheat-sheet a given role receives at
-  launch — its `[host:session]` identity, the exact `agent-send.sh` command for each peer, and the
-  FLIP / `--verify` conventions. `--host <h>` previews a cross-host view. An unknown role or missing
-  roster **fails loud** (stderr + non-zero exit), so a typo is never a silent no-op.
-- Versus `mosaic compose-contract <runtime>`: that emits the **whole** system prompt and reads the
-  role from `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` (a full-prompt smoke test). `comms-block` is the targeted,
-  explicit-arg, comms-only view — e.g. `mosaic fleet comms-block coder0-0` to preview a peer.
+Diagnostics expose only rule code, key name, and a SHA-256 content hash. They do not reveal command
+text, credentials, or other values.
 
-## North Star / future direction
+## Launch and stop behavior
 
-**Vision:** a webUI lets the user edit each agent's launch config — switch **harness**
-(claude / pi / codex / opencode), toggle **yolo**, pick a **model**, set a **command/channels**
-override — with no terminal.
+The launcher obtains the agent's socket only from the validated generated projection. It creates or
+checks the exact `=<agent-name>` tmux target; it never uses an ambient socket or fuzzy session match.
+The same strict parser runs before exact-stop behavior. A fresh native Pi heartbeat remains authoritative;
+the shell sidecar only provides fallback state when the native marker is stale or absent.
 
-**Continuity — this is not a new launch path.** It is a data-model + UI-binding layer over the
-existing roster-driven launcher. Field-by-field status today:
+`mosaic fleet comms-block <role>` can inspect the role's resolved Fleet-Comms block. It is a read-only
+inspection tool and fails loudly for an unknown role or missing roster.

-| **model** (`model_hint`) | ✅ end-to-end        | `roster.model_hint` → `MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL` → launcher line 44 `--model`. UI just writes the field.                                                       |
-| **yolo**                 | ❌ new               | Launcher line 44 **hardcodes** `mosaic yolo`. A non-yolo toggle needs a roster `yolo` field → emit `MOSAIC_AGENT_YOLO` → make line 44 conditional.       |
-| **command / channels**   | ❌ new               | `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` is **consumed** (launcher line ~12) but `generateAgentEnv` does not emit it. Needs a roster `command`/`channels` field → emitted. |
+## Current M2 boundary
 
-**The arc:**
-
-- **A** — `.env` `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` hatch: manual, ships now, kept safe across upgrades by #632.
-- **B** — roster-native launch-config: harness + model are already there; add the **yolo** toggle
-  (line-44 conditional) and **command/channels** emission to complete the data model.
-- **webUI** — binds dropdowns/toggles directly to those four roster fields.
-
-PATH A's `.env` override is the **manual form** of exactly what PATH B makes roster-native and the
-webUI edits — one continuous arc, not three separate features. PATH B is tracked as #636.
+FCM-M2-001 supplies generated/local parsing, validation, projection, quarantine, and launch-boundary
+evidence only. It does not authorize roster CRUD expansion, reconciliation, lifecycle changes, remote
+or connector mutation, site canaries, or migration. M3 must establish the local reconcile/lifecycle
+path; M4 separately provides migration preview, canary, and rollback gates.

+**Issue:** #758 · **Baseline:** `origin/main` `49e8a541` · **Status:** M0 inventory; no source
+examples or profiles are changed by this document.
+
+The v2 compiler may not silently accept an unresolved class. Before M1 exits, every shipped file
+below must be either migrated and executable, retained as an explicitly versioned v1 fixture, or
+retired with a replacement/deprecation note. Class resolution must use the existing
+profile/persona/provision baseline-plus-`roles.local` resolver; this inventory does not create a

+## Required disposition controls
+
+1. **No silent aliasing:** only `implementer → code`, `reviewer → review`, and
+   `operator-interaction → interaction` are approved deterministic aliases in this M0 baseline.
+   `worker`, `analyst`, `canary`, and domain-specific classes require resolver evidence or an
+   explicit version/retirement decision.
+2. **No identity hardcoding:** Tess and Ultron are optional instance/display names. An example/profile
+   may demonstrate the capability but must not make a product name a required class or machine ID.
+3. **No lifecycle inference from an example:** examples describe desired configuration only; migration
+   of an installed v1 roster separately preserves observed stopped/running state.
+4. **No secret or command migration:** examples/profiles must not introduce credential values or
+   `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND`; those legacy keys are M2 quarantine inputs, never v2 authoring fields.
+5. **Service presets are included:** service policies are inventoried alongside examples/profiles.
+   They may express launch/tool policy, but do not create a class, a canonical agent identity, or a
+   second validation path.
+6. **Evidence is executable:** M1/M4 CI must enumerate these exact files, validate retained/migrated
+   inputs through the shared resolver, and fail if a file lacks its documented disposition.

+# Create, Inspect, Update, and Delete a Local Fleet Agent
+
+Use the local roster-v2 control plane only. These commands change desired state and derived environment projections; they never start, stop, reconcile, inspect, or otherwise act on systemd, tmux, sessions, or runtimes.
+
+## Read and plan first
+
+```sh
+mosaic fleet get <name>
+mosaic fleet plan create --expected-generation <n> --agent '<json>'
+mosaic fleet plan update <name> --expected-generation <n> --agent '<json>'
+mosaic fleet plan delete <name> --expected-generation <n>
+```
+
+`plan create` takes the name from `--agent`. `plan update` and `plan delete` require the target name immediately after the operation. A plan is deterministic and side-effect free: it validates the complete proposed roster and projection targets without changing files. Use `--dry-run` on `create`, `update`, or `delete` for the same no-write result.
+
+Every successful command prints JSON. `get` returns `{ "generation", "agent" }`; mutation results contain `plan`, `applied`, `authoritativeRoster`, and `projections`.
+
+## Create safely
+
+```sh
+mosaic fleet create --expected-generation 7 --agent '{
+  "name":"coder0",
+  "alias":"Coder 0",
+  "className":"code",
+  "runtime":"pi",
+  "provider":"openai",
+  "model":"gpt-5.6-sol",
+  "reasoning":"high",
+  "toolPolicy":"code",
+  "workingDirectory":"/srv/mosaic",
+  "persistentPersona":false,
+  "resetBetweenTasks":true,
+  "launch":{"yolo":true}
+}'
+```
+
+Create defaults to `enabled: true` and `desired_state: stopped`. It does not start a process. Add `--persisted-start` only to persist `desired_state: running`; that still does not start a runtime in this M2 command. The JSON payload is an allowlist of the roster-v2 fields shown above plus `launch.yolo`; command, channel, secret-reference, and other unknown keys are rejected rather than ignored. The JSON error exposes only a stable code, never the rejected value.
+
+## Update and delete safely
+
+```sh
+mosaic fleet update coder0 --expected-generation 8 --agent '<complete JSON agent payload>'
+mosaic fleet delete coder0 --expected-generation 9
+```
+
+Updates require a complete agent JSON payload and preserve the stable name. Delete removes only the exact roster-owned `coder0.env.generated` projection. It retains `coder0.env.local`, legacy `coder0.env`, `coder0.env.quarantine`, and every unrelated projection. A delete dry-run leaves all of those files byte-identical.
+
+## Handle generation conflicts
+
+Every mutation requires the current authoritative `--expected-generation`. A stale value returns JSON `error.code: "stale-generation"` with a non-zero exit. Reload with `mosaic fleet get <name>` or reread the roster, plan again using the returned generation, then retry. A concurrent mutation returns `concurrent-mutation`; do not force or bypass the lock.
+
+## Interpret partial failures
+
+The roster is authoritative and is written before derived projections. A late projection I/O failure returns non-zero with redacted, actionable JSON:
+
+```json
+{
+  "applied": false,
+  "authoritativeRoster": "committed",
+  "projections": "incomplete",
+  "recovery": {
+    "code": "projection-apply-failed",
+    "action": "regenerate-projections-from-roster"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+This is not a rollback and not a no-op: reload the roster because its generation and membership were committed, regenerate projections from that roster, then plan a new mutation. Recovery output never contains environment values, credentials, or command text.
+
+## Exit and boundary behavior
+
+Handled validation errors and partial projection failures exit non-zero. `plan`/`--dry-run` and normal mutation JSON make the state explicit; scripts should use both the exit code and `authoritativeRoster`/`projections`, not `applied` alone.

+# Customize Fleet Roles
+
+Mosaic resolves persona contracts through two layers:
+
+1. `fleet/roles/<canonical-class>.md` — seeded baseline contract.
+2. `fleet/roles.local/<canonical-class>.md` — operator override or custom role; this layer wins.
+
+The same shared resolver is used by profile validation, provisioning, roster-v2 semantic validation,
+and launch-time persona injection.
+
+## Override a baseline role
+
+Create a readable Markdown contract under `roles.local` with the canonical filename and class marker:
+
+```markdown
+# Code — local role definition
+
+The local code role (`class: code`) follows the operator's repository conventions.
+```
+
+Save it as `fleet/roles.local/code.md`. Do not edit generated or seeded baseline assets when the goal
+is a durable local customization.
+
+Legacy aliases canonicalize before lookup. Therefore `roles.local/implementer.md` does not override
+`code`; use `roles.local/code.md`. See [Legacy Fleet Class Aliases](../migration/legacy-class-aliases.md).
+
+## Add a custom class
+
+A custom class remains supported when a readable contract exists for the exact identifier:
+
+```markdown
+# Release notes — local role definition
+
+The release-notes role (`class: release-notes`) prepares operator-reviewed release copy.
+```
+
+Save it as `fleet/roles.local/release-notes.md`, then reference `class: release-notes` and a matching
+`tool_policy: release-notes` in roster v2. Adding only a `LIBRARY.md` row is insufficient.
+
+Names such as `worker`, `analyst`, and `canary` are not built-in aliases; they need genuine custom
+contracts. `agents[].alias`, Tess, and Ultron are display names and cannot select a class.
+
+## Validation and authority boundaries
+
+Semantic validation reads the winning contract and rejects missing, unreadable, or empty files.
+Protected authority is derived from canonical class metadata in code, never from role prose. A custom
+contract cannot claim merge, validation-certificate, orchestration, lease, or interaction authority.
+
+Roster v2 also fails closed when a protected class and tool policy do not match after canonicalization,
+or when an unprotected class claims a protected tool policy. The legacy `operator-interaction` policy
+canonicalizes to `interaction`.
+
+Role customization does not issue leases, store validation certificates, mutate credentials, or
+change lifecycle state.

+# Executable Fleet Example, Profile, and Service-Preset Dispositions
+
+**Issue:** #758 · **Card:** FCM-M1-003 · **Status:** M1 executable disposition evidence
+
+This document records the executable disposition for every currently shipped fleet YAML artifact.
+The authoritative baseline classification remains the
+[legacy inventory](../LEGACY-EXAMPLE-PROFILE-DISPOSITION-INVENTORY.md). The executable guard is
+`packages/mosaic/src/fleet/example-profile-dispositions.ts`; its test fails if a shipped YAML
+artifact is added, removed, or left without one of the dispositions below.
+
+## Disposition rules
+
+- **Explicit v1 fixture:** the artifact is loaded through the existing v1 roster parser and must
+  declare `version: 1`. It remains a compatibility fixture; it is not silently treated as a v2
+  roster or given inferred aliases.
+- **Canonical profile:** the artifact is loaded through `loadProfiles`, which uses the shared
+  baseline-plus-`roles.local` persona resolver and rejects unreadable or unresolved classes.
+- **Canonical service policy:** the artifact is loaded through the operator-interaction service
+  policy reader and provisioned with a generic supplied identity. It validates its runtime, model,
+  reasoning, and legacy tool-policy compatibility without hardcoding a product identity.
+
+No artifact is retired in this card. A later retirement requires both a replacement link and a
+visible deprecation note; the executable guard must then record the new disposition before the
+artifact can be removed.

+# Legacy Fleet Class Aliases
+
+Fleet class compatibility is intentionally narrow. The shared resolver accepts exactly three legacy
+class names and converts them to canonical classes before persona lookup:
+
+| Legacy value           | Canonical value | Migration action                                                                                                       |
+| ---------------------- | --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `implementer`          | `code`          | Replace class and tool-policy references with `code`.                                                                  |
+| `reviewer`             | `review`        | Replace class and tool-policy references with `review`.                                                                |
+| `operator-interaction` | `interaction`   | Replace class and roster-v2 tool-policy references with `interaction`. The legacy service artifact remains compatible. |
+
+Alias support preserves existing inputs while provisioning and typed semantic output use canonical
+identities. Requested and canonical class values remain separately observable during semantic
+validation.
+
+## Lookup and override behavior
+
+Canonicalization precedes baseline and `roles.local` lookup. A legacy-named override such as
+`roles.local/implementer.md` is not a separate authority and is not selected for an `implementer`
+request. Customize the canonical role instead, for example `roles.local/code.md`.
+
+The compatibility file `operator-interaction.md` remains shipped, but `interaction` is the canonical
+role class. Tess is an example display name only.
+
+## Unresolved and custom classes
+
+No names are inferred from historical usage, instance names, or similar wording. `worker`, `analyst`,
+`canary`, Tess, and Ultron are not aliases. An otherwise unknown class is accepted only if the shared
+resolver can read an actual baseline or `roles.local` contract for that exact class. A `LIBRARY.md`
+row without a readable contract fails semantic validation.
+
+Custom classes receive no protected authority implicitly. Protected class/tool-policy mismatches
+fail closed.
+
+## Retirement guidance
+
+New configuration should emit canonical values. Existing inputs may use the three aliases during the
+compatibility period, but operators should migrate class and tool-policy fields together. Do not
+create new legacy-named role overrides; move their intended content to the canonical filename and
+validate the roster/profile before removing the old artifact.

+# Local Fleet Agent Mutations
+
+FCM-M2-002 provides local roster-v2 create, get, update, delete, and plan operations. They only change desired state and derived environment projections. They never start, stop, inspect, reconcile, or otherwise act on runtimes, systemd units, tmux sessions, or heartbeats.
+
+## CLI contract
+
+The commands operate only on the canonical `<mosaic-home>/fleet/roster.yaml` v2 authority and print one JSON object to stdout. `--agent` is a JSON object with the roster agent fields expressed as `className`, `toolPolicy`, `workingDirectory`, `persistentPersona`, `resetBetweenTasks`, and `launch: { "yolo": boolean }`.
+
+```sh
+mosaic fleet get <name>
+mosaic fleet plan <create|update|delete> [name] --expected-generation <n> [--agent '<json>'] [--persisted-start]
+mosaic fleet create --expected-generation <n> --agent '<json>' [--dry-run] [--persisted-start]
+mosaic fleet update <name> --expected-generation <n> --agent '<json>' [--dry-run]
+mosaic fleet delete <name> --expected-generation <n> [--dry-run]
+```
+
+`get` returns the authoritative generation and the selected agent. `plan create` derives its name from `--agent`; `plan update <name>` and `plan delete <name>` require the target name. `--agent` accepts only the documented roster-v2 request fields and `launch.yolo`; unknown keys such as commands, channels, or secret references are rejected. Rejection diagnostics return only the stable `invalid-request` code and never echo a rejected value. `plan` and `--dry-run` validate the complete proposed roster and projections but write neither the roster nor projections. `--persisted-start` is available only for a create request: it records `desired_state: running`, but does not start a process. Without it, create records `enabled: true` and `desired_state: stopped`. Handled failures return JSON with `error.code` and exit non-zero; unclassified validation/projection failures use the redacted `mutation-failed` code.
+
+## Generation, validation, and idempotency
+
+Each create, update, or delete request includes `expectedGeneration`. A request whose expected value differs from the authoritative roster generation fails with `stale-generation`; reload and retry with a newly computed plan. A private mutation lock rejects concurrent writers with `concurrent-mutation`.
+
+`planFleetAgentMutation` is deterministic and side-effect free. `executeFleetAgentMutation` validates the complete proposed roster through the existing structural and shared persona resolver, prepares generated/local/quarantine projections, and writes the roster authority atomically before applying derived projections. Equivalent create retries and delete requests for an already-absent agent are idempotent no-ops.
+
+Delete removes only the exact `<name>.env.generated` projection for the removed roster entry. Operator-owned `<name>.env.local`, legacy `<name>.env`, quarantine records, and unrelated projections remain untouched. An already-absent generated projection is treated as stale derived state, not as a failed mutation.
+
+## Result and recovery
+
+Mutation results are JSON-safe objects with `applied`, `authoritativeRoster`, `projections`, `plan`, and—only if a derived projection write fails after the authoritative roster write—a recovery object. `applied` is true only when every roster and derived-projection write completed. The explicit state fields prevent a partial result from being mistaken for a rollback or a no-op:
+
+```json
+{
+  "applied": false,
+  "authoritativeRoster": "committed",
+  "projections": "incomplete",
+  "recovery": {
+    "code": "projection-apply-failed",
+    "action": "regenerate-projections-from-roster"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Dry-runs and idempotent no-ops report `authoritativeRoster: "unchanged"` and `projections: "not-applied"`; a complete mutation reports `"committed"` and `"complete"`. Recovery output identifies the authoritative roster path and regeneration action only. It never contains generated/local/quarantine values, credentials, or command text. A recovery result exits non-zero because the authoritative roster was persisted but derived projections require regeneration. Regenerate projections from the roster before attempting another mutation.

+
+The local fleet roster is the desired-state authority. A launch reads a deterministic,
+roster-derived generated projection and an optional strictly data-only local file; neither file is
+a second roster or a command configuration surface.
+
+## Paths and ownership
+
+For agent `<name>` under `<MOSAIC_HOME>/fleet/agents/`:
+

+| `<name>.env.local`      | Operator                 | Optional, constrained local machine data. It cannot shadow generated keys.                                                   |
+| `<name>.env`            | Legacy input only        | Read once during projection generation, then regenerated/relocated or privately quarantined. It is never a launch authority. |
+| `<name>.env.quarantine` | Mosaic quarantine        | Mode-`0600` private record of forbidden legacy input; it is never read by the launcher.                                      |
+
+The systemd templates do not load either environment file. They invoke Bash with a fixed, cleared
+bootstrap environment; the launcher reads and validates `.env.generated` and `.env.local` itself before
+it queries, creates, or stops an exact tmux session. It does not `source`, `eval`, or execute an
+environment-supplied command. Exact stop derives its socket from the same validated generated projection,
+not from systemd or ambient environment data.
+
+All projection, local, and quarantine files must be regular files with no group or world permissions.
+The agent environment directory must also be a real, non-symlink private directory; it is validated
+before either environment file is read or tmux is queried. Unsafe paths, symlinks, or permissions fail
+closed. Diagnostics identify only a rule code, key name, and SHA-256 content hash; they never print
+values, credential material, or command text.
+
+## Allowed data
+
+`.env.generated` is complete and ordered exactly as follows:
+
+```dotenv
+MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME=<roster name>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_CLASS=<roster class>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_RUNTIME=<roster runtime>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL=<roster model hint>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_REASONING=<roster reasoning>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_TOOL_POLICY=<roster tool policy>
+MOSAIC_AGENT_WORKDIR=<absolute roster work directory>
+MOSAIC_TMUX_SOCKET=<roster socket or empty>
+```
+
+The generated launch contract supports only `claude`, `codex`, `opencode`, and `pi`. `fleet add`
+uses that same runtime authority and rejects any other runtime before it writes the roster or changes
+projection, local, or quarantine files. The legacy dogfood stub on its separate `mosaic-factory`
+socket remains an observability canary; it has no generated-launch adapter and cannot be added through
+this projection path.
+
+`.env.local` may contain only these non-secret data keys:
+
+- `MOSAIC_RUNTIME_BIN`
+- `MOSAIC_HEARTBEAT_RUN_DIR`
+- `MOSAIC_HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL`
+- `MOSAIC_CLAUDE_JSON`
+- `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`
+
+Local paths must be safe absolute paths and the interval must be a positive integer. Comments,
+quoted/export syntax, duplicate keys, unknown keys, generated-key shadowing, sensitive key names,
+and `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` are rejected. The launcher derives the only executable command from the
+validated runtime, model, and reasoning data; no arbitrary command compatibility path exists. When a
+Pi runtime writes a fresh `<name>.hb.native` marker, its native heartbeat remains authoritative; the
+shell sidecar resumes its `status=ok` fallback only after that marker is stale or absent.
+
+## Legacy disposition
+
+During projection generation, legacy roster-derived keys are regenerated from the roster. A valid
+allowed local value is relocated to `.env.local`; forbidden, malformed, duplicate, sensitive, and
+unknown legacy entries cause the legacy file to be moved to `.env.quarantine` and are represented by
+sanitized diagnostics. This is deterministic and idempotent after the legacy file has been consumed.
+
+## USC interface packet
+
+This card does not add a USC site file, write a USC roster, or run a site canary. The following is the
+consolidated downstream interface packet. Status is deliberately separated from checkout presence: no
+product release version has been evidenced for this interface set.
+

+# Fleet Role Classes and Authority
+
+A fleet role class is a machine identity resolved from the persona library. Resolution uses the
+canonical class before consulting the baseline `fleet/roles/` and operator `fleet/roles.local/`
+layers. A readable role contract is required; an index entry alone is not semantic success.
+
+## Canonicalization
+
+Only these legacy class aliases are recognized:
+
+| Requested class        | Canonical class |
+| ---------------------- | --------------- |
+| `implementer`          | `code`          |
+| `reviewer`             | `review`        |
+| `operator-interaction` | `interaction`   |
+
+No other alias is inferred. In particular, `worker`, `analyst`, and `canary` are custom classes only
+when an operator supplies a readable contract for that exact class. Tess and Ultron are instance
+names, not classes. `agents[].alias` is display-only and cannot grant authority.
+
+Canonicalization happens before role lookup. For example, requesting `implementer` resolves
+`code.md`; a separate `roles.local/implementer.md` cannot redefine the legacy alias. A canonical
+`roles.local/code.md` still overrides the baseline `roles/code.md` contract.
+
+## Protected authority
+
+Protected authority is immutable metadata derived only from canonical class. Role prose, instance
+name, display alias, tool policy, runtime, and custom role files cannot grant it.
+
+| Canonical class   | Granted authority                                  | Explicit limits                                                                   |
+| ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `merge-gate`      | Sole approve-to-land and merge authority           | No authority is inferred by similarly named custom roles or policies.             |
+| `validator`       | May issue a validation certificate                 | Cannot approve-to-land or merge.                                                  |

+# Fleet Roster v2 Structural Contract
+
+**Status:** FCM-M1-001 local-tmux structural compiler contract. This document describes parsing,
+strict structural validation, normalized in-memory representation, and deterministic rendering only.
+It does not authorize role resolution, lifecycle reconciliation, mutation, migration, remote
+placement, connector configuration, secret references, arbitrary commands, channels, gateway
+mapping, or any live-fleet change.
+
+The executable schema is [`roster-v2.schema.json`](./roster-v2.schema.json). The compiler exports
+the same schema and its test parses this file and compares it structurally with the executable contract.
+
+## Format and canonical shape
+
+The compiler accepts YAML or JSON. It reads only snake_case source fields and renders canonical,
+snake_case YAML. Rendering sorts runtime keys and agents by stable name. Agent names, class names,
+and tool-policy names are structural identifiers; whether a class or policy resolves is a later
+shared-resolver concern.

+## Semantic handoff
+
+`parseRosterV2` and `normalizeRosterV2` remain synchronous and structural. After structural success,
+call the asynchronous `validateRosterV2Semantics` handoff before using persona identity or authority.
+That validator batches the baseline `fleet/roles/` and operator `fleet/roles.local/` scans, then
+delegates every agent to the shared persona resolver.
+
+Semantic validation:
+
+- requires the winning role contract to be readable and non-empty; `LIBRARY.md` membership alone does
+  not resolve a class;
+- retains `requestedClass` separately from `canonicalClass` in typed output;
+- canonicalizes only `implementer` to `code`, `reviewer` to `review`, and
+  `operator-interaction` to `interaction`;
+- canonicalizes `tool_policy` with the same exact alias table;
+- rejects protected class/tool-policy mismatches in either direction, while accepting
+  `class: operator-interaction` with `tool_policy: operator-interaction` as canonical
+  `interaction`;
+- derives immutable protected authority only from canonical class; and
+- accepts custom baseline or `roles.local` classes without granting protected authority.
+
+`agents[].alias` remains display-only. Tess and Ultron are instance names, never semantic classes.
+Canonicalization happens before role-layer lookup, so a legacy-named override cannot redefine an
+alias as separate authority. See [Role Classes and Authority](./role-classes.md) and
+[Customize Fleet Roles](../how-to/customize-roles.md).
+
+This handoff performs no filesystem, systemd, tmux, roster, credential, lease, certificate, or
+lifecycle mutation.
+
+## Fail-closed boundary
+
+Every object is `additionalProperties: false`. The compiler rejects unknown, missing, malformed,
+and wrong-type fields before producing a model. It specifically rejects remote/SSH/host/socket
+per-agent fields, connector blocks, secret references, channel fields, arbitrary command fields,
+and gateway fields because they are unsupported in the local-tmux M1 contract. It does not silently
+ignore v1 camelCase input, version `1`, or a source that does not parse to an object.
+
+The v2 compiler is intentionally isolated from the existing v1 loader. Existing v1 rosters and
+current examples/profiles continue on their current path; FCM-M4 owns explicit inventory, preview,
+migration, and rollback. FCM-M2 owns generated-file/local-override quarantine, and FCM-M3 owns
+runtime lifecycle and reconciliation.

 When `DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN` is configured, `DISCORD_SERVICE_TOKEN`, `DISCORD_SERVICE_USER_ID`, and all three Discord allowlists are required. Gateway startup fails rather than enabling a broad or unauthenticated remote-control surface. The service user ID identifies a provisioned Mosaic service principal for persistence; the original Discord user ID is retained in ingress audit metadata. The service token is a secret supplied by the approved runtime secret mechanism and is never committed or logged.
 
-Inbound Discord messages must originate from an allowed guild, channel, and user, mention the bot, and carry a signed envelope containing the native Discord message ID and a generated correlation ID. The gateway validates the service identity, envelope signature, and allowlists again before dispatching. Replayed Discord message IDs are rejected during the bounded ingress replay window. Durable inbox/idempotency retention is introduced with Tess durable state.
+Inbound Discord messages must originate from an allowed guild and configured parent channel, come from an allowed and paired user whose role permits sending, and carry a signed envelope containing the native Discord message ID and a generated correlation ID. Attachment references are limited in count, metadata size, field length, and declared size; only query-free HTTPS URLs without credentials or fragments are accepted, so bearer or presigned URLs never reach persistence or an agent prompt. The gateway validates the service identity, envelope signature, allowlists, pairing, and role again before dispatching. Replayed Discord message IDs are rejected during the bounded ingress replay window. Durable inbox/idempotency retention is introduced with Tess durable state.
+
+Configured channels are dedicated agent interaction surfaces. An authorized untagged message routes to the bound logical agent and the response returns in that channel. Mentioning the bot on a normal channel message creates a public Discord thread, or reuses the thread already attached to that same message; the response and later thread messages stay in that thread without repeated mentions. A normal channel's category is not an authorization parent—only a Discord thread inherits authorization from its configured parent channel. Runtime control commands such as `/approve` and `/stop <approval>` remain on the current channel/thread because they target that durable session rather than opening a new topic.
+
+Authorization and per-user/channel rate limits are evaluated before thread creation, so an unlisted guild/channel/user, unpaired user, `viewer`, or rate-limited sender cannot create bot threads or dispatch gateway work. The bot needs Discord permissions to view/send in configured channels and create/send in public threads. If thread creation fails, the turn is not dispatched because the requested response destination cannot be honored.
+
+Conversation handles use the configured logical agent plus Discord channel/thread identity. They do not contain a Claude, Codex, Pi, OpenCode, model, process, or runtime-provider identifier; changing the runtime behind the logical session therefore does not require reconnecting the Discord bot.
+
+#### Interaction binding format
+
+`DISCORD_INTERACTION_BINDINGS` must be a non-empty JSON array. Each item requires `instanceId`, trusted `agentConfigId`, `guildId`, `channelId`, and a non-empty `pairedUsers` object. `instanceId` is the configured logical-agent name; its trusted database `agentConfigId` must resolve to an agent configuration with exactly that name, preserving provider/model/prompt/tool selection per binding. The guild/channel must also appear in their corresponding allowlists. IDs below are placeholders:
+
+```json
+[
+  {
+    "instanceId": "interaction-agent",
+    "agentConfigId": "agent-config-id",
+    "guildId": "guild-id",
+    "channelId": "channel-id",
+    "pairedUsers": {
+      "discord-user-id": {
+        "role": "operator",
+        "mosaicUserId": "mosaic-user-id"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+]
+```
+
+| Pairing role | Send message | Create/continue thread | Approve | Stop |
+| ------------ | ------------ | ---------------------- | ------- | ---- |
+| `viewer`     | No           | No                     | No      | No   |
+| `operator`   | Yes          | Yes                    | No      | No   |
+| `admin`      | Yes          | Yes                    | Yes     | Yes  |
+
+A legacy role-only value such as `"discord-user-id": "operator"` remains valid for non-privileged ingress. Approval and stop require the object form with a provisioned `mosaicUserId`; gateway policy checks that Mosaic identity and consumes one exact-action approval once. Do not make the Discord service principal an approving administrator.
+
+After changing bindings or allowlists, restart the gateway/plugin through the normal service manager and verify both Discord and gateway connectivity. The adapter reports `connected` only when both links are ready, `degraded` when one is ready, and `disconnected` when neither is ready. Test one authorized untagged channel turn, one mention-created thread, one thread follow-up, and one unauthorized user denial without using production credential values in logs or evidence.

+# Mos Connector Lease Operations — M1
+
+## Operational status
+
+M1 installs the durable schema and gateway policy/adapter boundary. It does **not** activate a connector, expose a lease administration endpoint, or cut over a channel. The default gateway connector-lease policy is deny-all until a later work package supplies an authorized server-side policy and concrete adapter.
+
+## Events to monitor
+
+Use correlation IDs to follow `connector_lease_audit_log` events:
+
+| Event      | Meaning                                                               |
+| ---------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `acquire`  | First holder inserted for an unused binding                           |
+| `renew`    | Current holder heartbeat extended the TTL                             |
+| `takeover` | Authorized CAS replaced the holder and incremented epoch              |
+| `release`  | Current holder explicitly relinquished authority                      |
+| `expiry`   | An expired current lease was observed                                 |
+| `reject`   | Policy, CAS, expiry, scope, or fencing validation denied an operation |
+
+Audit data is metadata-only. Raw grant objects, connector payloads, scopes, tokens, approval references, and credentials must never be added to audit output.
+
+## Incident checks
+
+For suspected duplicate/stale connector effects:
+
+1. Correlate the attempted operation with its `reject`, `takeover`, or `expiry` event.
+2. Compare the current row's connector ID, lease UUID, epoch, expiry, and release time with the adapter's normalized execution context.
+3. Treat an old epoch, old lease UUID, expired lease, or released lease as non-authoritative. Do not retry it as the old holder.
+4. Recovery uses the authorized takeover path with the observed expected epoch. Ordinary acquire is intentionally rejected for expired/released rows.
+5. If an external effect may already have happened, preserve evidence and do not assume lease fencing provides exactly-once replay safety.
+
+## Migration and rollback safety
+
+Migration `0016_salty_morlocks.sql` is additive: it creates two new tables and indexes without modifying existing authorization/session tables. Before rollout, normal database backup and migration verification still apply. Rolling application code back leaves unused additive tables in place; dropping tables is not part of automated rollback because it would destroy lease/audit evidence.
+
+## Security constraints
+
+- Tenant comes from authenticated gateway context, never a connector request field.
+- Logical agent, binding, connector, and scope identifiers use normalized constrained forms.
+- Takeover requires explicit gateway policy authorization and an expected epoch.
+- Default defense-in-depth TTL caps are 5 minutes for leases and 30 seconds for grants; policy may enforce stricter limits.
+- Validation and rejection audit complete before adapter side effects.
+- Existing authz and exact-action approval controls remain additional required gates; a valid connector lease does not bypass them.

+- **Issue:** [#753](https://git.mosaicstack.dev/mosaicstack/stack/issues/753)
+- **Gate status:** **PASS / GO**
+- **Reviewed baseline:** `origin/main` at `49e8a54` (2026-07-14)
+- **Frozen target:** `SHARED-CONTRACT.md` v1.0.0-rc.4 and `contracts/*.v1.ts`
+- **Disposition input:** contract commit `3f6a3387b419eb99453ee10dd25ba888faaab0b5`, tree `7ebab8fa530a7180036928cea9527f808548aa14`
+- **Scope:** documentation and future-test planning only; no runtime, schema, migration, API, configuration, dependency, CI, or deployment change
+
+## 1. Decision
+
+KBN-010 is **PASS / GO** against frozen contract rc.4. The original rc.3 finding remains historical detection evidence:
+
+- **KBN010-SI-001 — rc.3 invalid mission composite-FK candidate key.** At rc.3, `missionsV1` declared a primary key on `id` and a unique key on `(workspace_id, project_id, id)`, but not a candidate key on `(workspace_id, id)`. Both `artifacts_workspace_mission_fk` and `approval_decisions_workspace_mission_fk` referenced exactly `(missions.workspace_id, missions.id)`. PostgreSQL requires the referenced column list of a foreign key to match a non-partial unique/primary candidate key; uniqueness of `id` alone did not satisfy that two-column reference. The rc.3 DDL was therefore invalid, and KBN-010 correctly blocked it.
+
+Contract rc.4 resolves SI-001 by adding the non-partial `missions_workspace_id_uidx` candidate key on `(workspace_id, id)` while retaining the global `id` primary key and the project-congruent `(workspace_id, project_id, id)` key. Both polymorphic child FKs retain their exact workspace-safe ordered columns and `ON DELETE RESTRICT`; no target, tenancy, project-congruence, exactly-one-target, N-1, rollback, no-cascade, identity, approval, or fencing authority is weakened.
+
+Independent Homelab non-author schema/security review returned **APPROVE** for the exact rc.4 commit/tree/content and found no collision with #757 connector fencing. SI-001 has no unresolved contract/schema-design impact.
+
+This GO completes the KBN-010 analysis/review prerequisite only. It does **not** claim that runtime schema or migration DDL exists. KBN-100 remains held and may be released only after this PR squash-merges, the merged change reaches terminal-green CI on `main`, and issue #753 closes.

+- **Verdict:** Homelab independent non-author schema/security review **APPROVE**.
+- **Reviewed conclusions:** the candidate key repairs both dependent FKs; tenant safety, polymorphic exactly-one-target semantics, RESTRICT/no-cascade behavior, and N-1/rollback semantics remain valid; #757 uses separate tables/indexes/FKs/identity/fence authority and has no collision.

+- **N100-05** reject a team authorization path when the user lacks active membership in the team's workspace.
+- **N100-06** reject task→mission project mismatch.
+- **N100-07** reject task→milestone and project→current-milestone project mismatch.
+- **N100-08** reject task→parent project mismatch and self-parent.

+- **N100-10** reject mission→milestone project mismatch/orphan.
+- **N100-11** reject checkpoint artifact from another workspace.
+- **N100-12** reject checkpoint artifact owned by another same-workspace task/mission unless an explicitly frozen evidence rule permits it.
+- **N100-13** reject approval evidence from another workspace.
+- **N100-14** reject same-workspace approval evidence unrelated to the approval target.
+- **N100-15** reject zero/multiple assignment principals and zero/multiple proposers.
+- **N100-16** reject target session without its exact target agent.
+- **N100-17** reject assignment task/agent/session crossing workspaces.
+- **N100-18** reject non-positive task version and expired assignment acquisition.
+- **N100-19** concurrent lease insert permits one active lease and returns one winner.
+- **N100-20** successive leases return strictly increasing bigint fences.
+- **N100-21** reject checkpoint with another task, lease, or fence.
+- **N100-22** reject duplicate/non-monotonic checkpoint sequence.
+- **N100-23** reject evidence join for a mismatched checkpoint/task.
+- **N100-24** proposal insert without exact submission event fails atomically.
+- **N100-25** foreign/wrong-type/wrong-proposal submission event fails atomically.
+- **N100-26** foreign/wrong-target/unrelated acceptance event fails atomically.
+- **N100-27** application role cannot UPDATE/DELETE `task_events`.
+- **N100-28** application role cannot UPDATE/DELETE checkpoints/artifacts/evidence joins.
+- **N100-29** parent hard delete is RESTRICTed while audit/evidence children exist.
+- **N100-30** archive does not alter canonical lifecycle status.
+- **N100-31** purge without break-glass authority/evidence is denied.
+- **N100-32** reject dependency self-edge and duplicate directed pair regardless of type.
+- **N100-33** reject direct and indirect dependency cycles.
+- **N100-34** concurrent reciprocal dependency inserts cannot both commit.
+- **N100-35** readiness remains false until every blocking predecessor and completion condition passes.
+- **N100-36** empty DB migration succeeds after the contract amendment.
+- **N100-37** production-shape expand retains all legacy declarations.
+- **N100-38** crash/resume backfill is idempotent and checksum-stable.
+- **N100-39** ambiguous workspace/owner/assignee is quarantined, never guessed.
+- **N100-40** no `ready`/`in_review` status is emitted to N-1 readers before switch.
+- **N100-41** `mission_tasks.status` cannot remain a write source.
+- **N100-42** tags/assignee/date/mission JSON/config/description/agent fields reconcile without loss.
+- **N100-43** claimed fleet backlog rows are quarantined and imported rows cannot dispatch.
+- **N100-44** pre-switch rollback works while post-first-mutation rollback requires freeze/reconciliation.
+- **N100-45** reconcile both exact child FK column lists to the rc.4 `(workspace_id,id)` mission candidate while retaining the global `id` primary key and `(workspace_id,project_id,id)` key.
+- **N100-46** empty-DB migration creates `missions_workspace_id_uidx` before `artifacts_workspace_mission_fk` and `approval_decisions_workspace_mission_fk`.
+- **N100-47** production-shape preflight finds no duplicate `(workspace_id,id)` groups, preserves global `id` uniqueness, and applies the candidate before both dependent FKs.
+- **N100-48** N-1 startup/read/write remains unchanged; pre-switch rollback drops both dependents before the candidate and preserves the global/project-congruent keys.
+- **N100-49** artifact insert using a valid mission ID paired with a foreign workspace fails before commit.
+- **N100-50** approval-decision insert using a valid mission ID paired with a foreign workspace fails before commit.

+### KBN-105/KBN-110/KBN-120/KBN-130/KBN-140 — API and P1
+
+- **N105-01** every route has an explicit user/service command-family policy; user/admin tokens cannot call service-only Coordinator mutations.
+- **N105-02** public DTO validation rejects `writeProof`, internal context, body `workspaceId`, and caller-asserted health.
+- **N105-03** fixture exhaustiveness prevents 503, 502/504/timeout, and 409 cross-mapping.
+- **N105-04** approval DTO accepts an ID and decision command only, never approval proof-by-value.
+- **N105-05** all fence fields accept/emit decimal strings and reject JSON numbers.
+- **N110-01** listing with a foreign `workspaceId` or foreign filter ID follows the frozen no-oracle denial and returns no rows/counts/cursors.
+- **N110-02** get by foreign or nonexistent aggregate ID has the same frozen denial shape and no foreign metadata.
+- **N110-03** create/update/archive with a foreign owner, parent, project, mission, milestone, tag, or target ID is denied before mutation.
+- **N110-04** dependency/proposal commands with foreign target IDs are denied with unchanged state/event/outbox counts.
+- **N110-05** REST, MCP, WebSocket, and internal Coordinator paths produce equivalent no-oracle behavior for the same foreign ID.
+- **N110-06** a revoked/inactive owner is denied even with a still-valid Better Auth session.
+- **N110-07** stale membership/team cache cannot authorize a proposer, decision actor, archive actor, or principal after revocation.
+- **N110-08** a team ID from another workspace cannot authorize or own the command target.
+- **N110-09** same-workspace but wrong-project mission/milestone/parent IDs are denied inside the transaction.
+- **N110-10** an expired service token is denied before repository access.
+- **N110-11** an audience- or workspace-mismatched service token is denied without an existence oracle.
+- **N110-12** an over-scoped service token cannot call a command family absent from its role/capability allowlist.
+- **N110-13** disabled agent or ended session revokes service-token command authority immediately on PostgreSQL recheck.
+- **N110-14** contradictory public health state/boolean combinations fail validation.
+- **N110-15** Valkey-only liveness cannot mint or substitute a PostgreSQL write proof.
+- **N110-16** caller-forged public `healthy` cannot enter internal mutation context.
+- **N110-17** public REST/MCP/CLI bodies containing health/proof fields are rejected.
+- **N110-18** an expired internal proof produces no state/event/outbox write.
+- **N110-19** a future-dated or not-yet-valid proof produces no write.
+- **N110-20** a policy-revision-mismatched proof produces no write.
+- **N110-21** a proof minted on another transaction/connection produces no write.
+- **N110-22** a proof that expires before the final pre-mutation check produces no write.
+- **N110-23** deliberate read-only/write-unavailable denial maps only to authoritative 503/not-applied/non-retryable.
+- **N110-24** timeout before commit maps to transport-unknown and permits only same-key retry.
+- **N110-25** timeout after commit maps to transport-unknown and same-key retry returns the committed canonical result once.
+- **N110-26** expected-version mismatch maps only to 409/not-applied/non-retryable.
+- **N110-27** recovery replay with a changed idempotency key cannot masquerade as the original uncertain request.
+- **N110-28** pending proposal cannot alter target fields/status/rank/version.
+- **N110-29** rejected proposal cannot affect readiness, dependencies, or gates.
+- **N110-30** pending/rejected proposal cannot create an assignment or lease.
+- **N110-31** direct proposal-row state manipulation cannot bypass normal command execution.
+- **N110-32** proposal submission without a submission event rolls back fully.
+- **N110-33** foreign-workspace submission event rolls back fully.
+- **N110-34** wrong aggregate/event type submission event rolls back fully.
+- **N110-35** same-workspace event for another proposal rolls back fully.

+## 9. UNRESOLVED SCHEMA IMPACTS

+none
+
+### Resolved-impact record — KBN010-SI-001
+
+- **Historical detection:** rc.3 lacked an exact `(workspace_id,id)` candidate key for the artifact and approval-decision mission FKs. This document's original BLOCKED verdict was correct and remains preserved in §1 and T33.
+- **Resolution:** rc.4 adds non-partial `missions_workspace_id_uidx(workspace_id,id)` before both exact dependent FKs while retaining the global primary key and project-congruent key.
+- **Reviewed object:** commit `3f6a3387b419eb99453ee10dd25ba888faaab0b5`, tree `7ebab8fa530a7180036928cea9527f808548aa14`.
+- **Corroborating identities:** full-index SHA-256 `6b40a76265c4f3e6d1d30a7f262a2dd16e0d51997e99c146b59f527e6524cd42`; stable patch-id `058cf98026fcd1043703c866aee047c8bb144740`.
+- **Independent verdict:** Homelab non-author schema/security review **APPROVE**. It confirmed PostgreSQL candidate/FK validity, unchanged tenant and polymorphic exactly-one-target safety, RESTRICT/no-cascade semantics, N-1/rollback validity, and no shared table/index/FK/identity/fence authority collision with #757.
+- **Digest interpretation:** a command-rendered patch digest varied with rendering command/options and is non-authoritative. Git commit + tree + exact file content are canonical; stable full-index SHA-256 and stable patch-id corroborate that identity.
+- **Residual implementation obligations:** KBN-100 must create the candidate before both dependent FKs; prove production-shape duplicate feasibility without weakening global uniqueness; pass empty/prod/N-1/rollback tests; reconcile both exact FK targets; and separately reject foreign-workspace mission references for artifacts and approval decisions (N100-45..50).
+- **Implementation status:** no runtime schema, migration, API, or deployment implementation is claimed by this gate disposition.
+
+## 10. Residual risk and handoff
+
+- Active membership, polymorphic targets, same-task evidence semantics, parent/DAG cycle checks, token scope, and no-oracle behavior depend on authoritative transaction code and must not be treated as FK-only guarantees.
+- DB superuser and break-glass compromise cannot be eliminated by application constraints; separation of duties, immutable external backup/audit evidence, drills, and monitoring remain required.
+- PostgreSQL unavailability intentionally sacrifices writes for integrity. Transport-unknown outcomes remain safe only when clients preserve the exact idempotency key.
+- Imported ambiguous records remain quarantined until owner sign-off; no automated mapping may convert ambiguity into authority.
+- SI-001 is resolved at frozen contract/design-review level only. KBN-100 still owes N100-45..50 executable migration evidence.
+
+**Handoff status:** KBN-010 **PASS / GO** at rc.4. KBN-100 remains held until this PR squash-merges, terminal-green CI completes on `main`, and issue #753 closes; the orchestrator owns those remaining gates.

 # Native Kanban/SOT — Remediated Shared Contract v1
 
-**Status:** INDEPENDENT REVIEW GO; freezes as v1 when issue #751 canon merges to `main`
-**Version:** 1.0.0-rc.3
+**Status:** CONTROL-PLANE SI-001 AMENDMENT AUTHORIZED; prior KCR-001–016 independent-review GO retained; rc.4 requires independent schema/SecReview before KBN-100
+**Version:** 1.0.0-rc.4
 **Date:** 2026-07-14

+
+## Amendment record
+
+### 1.0.0-rc.4 — KBN010-SI-001
+
+- **Choice:** add the explicitly named, non-partial unique candidate key `missions_workspace_id_uidx` on `missions(workspace_id, id)` and retain `missions_workspace_project_id_uidx` on `(workspace_id, project_id, id)`.
+- **Rationale:** mission `id` remains globally unique, while the composite candidate key makes the frozen tenant-safe generic mission relations valid. `artifacts` and `approval_decisions` are polymorphic exactly-one-target records and do not consistently carry `project_id`; widening both children would unnecessarily broaden v1 and its target semantics.
+- **Exact effect:** `artifacts_workspace_mission_fk` and `approval_decisions_workspace_mission_fk` continue to reference the exact ordered columns `missions(workspace_id, id)` with RESTRICT deletion, now backed by a matching candidate key.
+- **Non-effect:** no SOT, tenancy, project-congruence, proposal-audit, approval, fencing, immutability, no-cascade, API, or wire-version invariant changes. The `SuccessEnvelopeV1.contractVersion` remains `1.0.0`.

+# Independent Code Review — #756 Official Discord Channel Plugin
+
+**Verdict: APPROVE**
+
+## Scope reviewed
+
+Complete current uncommitted #756 delta: multi-binding trusted agent selection, privileged ingress-route validation, attachment validation/persistence/resume, egress route lifecycle and idempotency, concurrent gateway stream state, Discord lifecycle/thread/rate behavior, compatibility ingress, and tests.
+
+## Review result
+
+No blocking or change-request finding remains.
+
+- **Trusted multi-agent routing:** each binding requires a provisioned `agentConfigId`; the gateway resolves that config server-side, verifies its logical-agent name, and never accepts a Discord-controlled agent selection or applies generic routing to Discord ingress.
+- **Auth and route integrity:** allowlist, pairing, role, and canonical logical-agent/channel-or-thread conversation-route validation occur before gateway processing. Privileged approval/stop paths use the same binding and route validation.
+- **Attachments:** ingress rejects malformed, over-bounded, credential-bearing, fragment-bearing, or query-bearing URLs. Valid attachment metadata, including `sizeBytes`, persists and is reconstructed into resume history as explicitly untrusted context.
+- **Discord reliability:** the adapter supports degraded Socket.IO reconnect, parent/thread routing semantics, bounded pre-side-effect ingress rates, and terminal response-route cleanup. Egress validates route/message alignment, sends deterministic nonces, distinguishes permanent from transient errors, and uses bounded retries.
+- **Concurrent state:** per-client/conversation keys isolate listener, redaction, tool, and stream state for simultaneous threads sharing a Discord socket; disconnect cleanup covers all associated conversations.
+- **Harness neutrality:** contracts retain logical-agent/channel data only; no harness/provider identity leaks into adapter routes or message boundaries.

+
+## Final remediation verification
+
+| Area | Current evidence | Result |
+|---|---|---|
+| Attachment confidentiality and integrity | Ingress accepts bounded attachment metadata only when URL is HTTPS, query-free, fragment-free, and credential-free. Count, aggregate size, field length, MIME, and finite non-negative size validation apply before dispatch; `sizeBytes` is signed and retained. | Pass |
+| Trusted agent selection | Each binding names a required trusted `agentConfigId`; gateway resolves that config server-side and requires its configured name to equal the binding logical-agent ID. Client/provider input cannot select the agent for Discord ingress. | Pass |
+| Privileged operation routing | Gateway revalidates the binding and requires the signed conversation identity to match the configured logical agent before approve/stop actions. Paired admin identity and one-time approval checks remain enforced. | Pass |
+| Egress containment and delivery | Egress requires an aligned message/route, configured parent or exact observed thread target, and cleans response routes after completion, errors, typed-ingress failure, or bounded-map pressure. | Pass |
+| Side-effect limits | Per guild/authorized-parent/user rolling message and thread limits execute before thread creation or dispatch. | Pass |
+
+## Security controls reviewed
+
+- Default-deny guild, parent-channel, user, configured pairing, and role checks precede rate consumption and all side effects.
+- Gateway independently enforces Discord service authentication, HMAC integrity, allowlists, binding/role checks, attachment validation, and replay-ID rejection.
+- Thread authorization uses only the Discord thread parent; category parents cannot authorize ingress.
+- Agent-visible attachment references are explicitly labeled untrusted; binary content is not embedded. Persisted attachment name/URL values are redacted.
+- Egress uses deterministic nonces, bounded transient retry, typed terminal errors, and does not send to forged targets.
+- No secrets or message content were added to plugin logs.

+# Issue #753 — KBN-010 threat, authorization, and constraint-impact gate
+
+## Objective
+
+Complete the mandatory threat/auth/constraint-impact analysis that gates KBN-100 schema implementation.
+
+## Scope
+
+- In: threat matrix, frozen-control mapping, schema/API/test impact inventory, security evidence plan.
+- Out: runtime, schema, migration, API, dependency, CI, deployment, and secret changes.
+- Canonical requirements: `docs/requirements/native-kanban-sot.md`.
+- Frozen contract: `docs/native-kanban-sot/SHARED-CONTRACT.md` and `contracts/*.v1.ts`.
+- Tracking: Mosaic Stack issue #753.
+
+## Plan
+
+1. Independently inspect current-main implementation and frozen canon.
+2. Enumerate tenant, identity, health-proof, approval, fencing, proposal, audit, token, and outage threats.
+3. Map every threat to required constraints, command behavior, negative tests, and owning future slice.
+4. Surface any unresolved schema impact as a blocker; do not silently amend the frozen contract.
+5. Run documentation/static validation and submit for independent SecReview.
+
+## Execution log
+
+- 2026-07-14: KBN-000 completed through PR #752 and post-merge pipeline #1798.
+- 2026-07-14: KBN-010 issue #753 created; task marked in progress; fresh GPT worker pending dispatch.
+
+## Verification evidence
+
+Pending worker validation, independent SecReview, Ultron gate, PR merge, post-merge CI, and issue closure.
+
+## 2026-07-14 worker analysis checkpoint
+
+- Inspected issue #753, canonical requirements, all frozen v1 contracts, and actual `origin/main` at `49e8a54` across DB schema, Better Auth scope, project/task/mission/team repositories/controllers, fleet backlog, and `TASKS.md` parsing/writing.
+- Confirmed the worker branch has no source/runtime/schema delta from `origin/main`; orchestrator-owned `.mosaic` state remains dirty and untouched.
+- Authored the threat, authorization, constraint-impact, negative-test, and requirements-traceability analysis in `docs/native-kanban-sot/KBN-010-THREAT-AUTH-CONSTRAINT-GATE.md`.
+- Gate decision: **BLOCKED** by `KBN010-SI-001`. `missionsV1` lacks a unique candidate key on `(workspace_id, id)`, while `artifacts_workspace_mission_fk` and `approval_decisions_workspace_mission_fk` both reference that exact pair. PostgreSQL cannot create the frozen composite foreign keys as declared.
+- Decision: do not select or apply a schema fix. Contract authority must version either a `(workspace_id, id)` mission candidate key or project-congruent child keys, then obtain independent re-review before KBN-100.
+- Additional risks are controlled by frozen transaction/API behavior but require the exact future negative tests cataloged in the deliverable, especially active membership, service-token revocation, same-workspace semantic evidence checks, no-oracle behavior, and serialized parent/DAG cycle checks.
+- OpenBrain startup recall was attempted but unavailable because `/home/hermes/.config/mosaic/credentials.json` is absent; no project state was written to an alternate memory silo.
+- TDD: not applicable; this slice changes documentation/test-plan analysis only and implements no runtime behavior.
+
+## Validation log
+
+- `pnpm exec prettier --check docs/native-kanban-sot/KBN-010-THREAT-AUTH-CONSTRAINT-GATE.md docs/scratchpads/753-kbn010-threat-gate.md` — PASS.
+- Changed-doc link validator — PASS (`relative_links=0`, one external issue link); `curl -fsSIL https://git.mosaicstack.dev/mosaicstack/stack/issues/753` — PASS.
+- The first inline link-validator invocation had a Python f-string syntax error; corrected once and rerun successfully without changing the deliverable.
+- `pnpm format:check` — PASS.
+- `pnpm lint` — PASS (23 tasks successful).
+- `pnpm typecheck` — PASS (42 tasks successful).
+- `pnpm exec tsc -p docs/native-kanban-sot/tsconfig.json --noEmit` — PASS.
+- Scoped diff review — PASS: authored delta is limited to the exclusive deliverable and this scratchpad; no runtime/schema/config/dependency/CI/deployment file is changed, and `docs/native-kanban-sot/TASKS.md` has no worker worktree delta from tracking commit `9b55de0`.
+- Independent SecReview remains pending and cannot return PASS until contract authority resolves `KBN010-SI-001`.

+
+## 2026-07-14 KBN010-SI-001 contract-authority amendment
+
+- Authority: `web1:mosaic-100` directed the minimal rc.4 amendment under issue #753: add a non-partial unique candidate key on `missions(workspace_id, id)` while retaining global `missions.id` uniqueness and the project-congruent `(workspace_id, project_id, id)` key.
+- Rationale: artifacts and approval decisions are polymorphic exactly-one-target records and do not consistently carry `project_id`; widening both children would broaden frozen v1 semantics without improving tenant safety.
+- Plan: amend only the frozen schema contract and shared contract, freeze exact DDL ordering and future migration negatives, run scoped/full validation and independent review, then commit and push without opening/merging a PR or closing #753.
+- TDD: not applicable because this is a design-contract amendment with no runtime schema or migration implementation; rc.4 freezes future executable empty/prod/N-1/rollback/foreign-workspace and duplicate-key-feasibility tests.
+- Budget: no explicit cap supplied; use a 20K-equivalent soft working cap and one bounded worker lane.
+- Read-only #757 boundary: PR #757 adds separate logical-agent connector lease/CAS fencing (`logical_agent_connector_leases.lease_epoch`) in runtime schema and connector contracts. SI-001 changes only the frozen mission candidate key; it does not consume, alter, or reinterpret connector fencing, task fencing, lease authority, or #757 ownership.
+
+### Amendment verification evidence
+
+- Frozen schema: added exactly one non-partial `missions_workspace_id_uidx` on `(workspace_id, id)`; retained the global `id` primary key and `missions_workspace_project_id_uidx` on `(workspace_id, project_id, id)`.
+- FK reconciliation: targeted static checks prove the candidate key precedes both `artifacts_workspace_mission_fk` and `approval_decisions_workspace_mission_fk`; each continues to reference exact ordered columns `(workspace_id, mission_id)` → `missions(workspace_id, id)` with RESTRICT deletion.
+- Shared contract: candidate version is `1.0.0-rc.4`; authority, rationale, exact effect/non-effect, candidate-before-FK DDL order, duplicate feasibility, empty/prod/N-1/rollback/foreign-workspace future tests, and unchanged KCR/SOT/tenant/proposal/fencing/no-cascade invariants are explicit.
+- Changed-file Prettier, contract ESLint, `pnpm exec tsc -p docs/native-kanban-sot/tsconfig.json`, and targeted SI-001 static checks — PASS.
+- Full `pnpm format:check && pnpm lint && pnpm typecheck` — PASS (23 lint tasks and 42 typecheck/build tasks).
+- Independent Codex security review — PASS, zero critical/high/medium/low findings; tenant isolation is preserved.
+- Independent Codex code review confirmed the candidate key repairs both FK targets and reported no blocker on the authorized delta. Its initial request to rewrite the historical KBN-010 verdict conflicts with the exclusive scope and was resolved by documenting the immutable-evidence boundary in rc.4; its remaining finding concerns pre-existing live `.mosaic` session files, which are untouched and excluded from this commit.
+- Scoped diff: only the two frozen contract files and this append-only scratchpad amendment are staged for delivery; no runtime schema, migration, task plan, gate verdict, provider artifact, or #757-owned file is included.
+
+## 2026-07-14 final rc.4 KBN-010 disposition
+
+- Control-plane direction authorized final disposition edits only to `docs/native-kanban-sot/KBN-010-THREAT-AUTH-CONSTRAINT-GATE.md` and this append-only scratchpad; contract author `web1:kbn-contract` remained idle and undisturbed.
+- Exact reviewed contract object: commit `3f6a3387b419eb99453ee10dd25ba888faaab0b5`, tree `7ebab8fa530a7180036928cea9527f808548aa14`.
+- Corroborating review identities: full-index SHA-256 `6b40a76265c4f3e6d1d30a7f262a2dd16e0d51997e99c146b59f527e6524cd42`; stable patch-id `058cf98026fcd1043703c866aee047c8bb144740`. A command-rendered patch digest varied by Git rendering command/options and is non-authoritative; commit+tree+exact file content are canonical.
+- Independent Homelab non-author schema/security review verdict: **APPROVE**. It confirmed the rc.4 `missions_workspace_id_uidx(workspace_id,id)` repairs both dependent FKs while retaining the global PK and project-congruent key; tenant, polymorphic exactly-one-target, RESTRICT/no-cascade, N-1/rollback semantics remain valid.
+- Read-only #757 cross-check: no shared table, index, FK, identity, fence, or authority collision with connector lease/CAS fencing.
+- Final KBN-010 gate decision: **PASS / GO** at rc.4 with `UNRESOLVED SCHEMA IMPACTS` equal to exact `none`. Historical SI-001 detection remains in the gate document as evidence that rc.3 was invalid.
+- No runtime schema/migration/API/config/dependency/CI/deployment implementation is claimed. KBN-100 must still implement candidate-before-dependent-FK ordering, duplicate feasibility, empty/prod/N-1/rollback evidence, exact FK reconciliation, and separate artifact/approval foreign-workspace negatives (N100-45..50).
+- TDD remains not applicable because this continuation changes only documentation/evidence disposition and no runtime behavior.
+- Remaining orchestrator-owned sequence: worker validation/commit/push → PR open/update → Ultron review → squash merge → terminal-green post-main CI → close #753 → release KBN-100. KBN-100 is not released earlier.
+
+### Final worker validation
+
+- Changed-doc Prettier and link checks — PASS; issue #753 external link returned successfully.
+- Static future-test catalog check — PASS: all prefixes are individually enumerated, contiguous, and duplicate-free; N100 now spans N100-01..50.
+- rc.4 disposition assertions — PASS: gate status PASS/GO, frozen target rc.4, exact `none` unresolved section, independent APPROVE, review identities, and N100-50 are present.
+- Review identity reproduction — PASS: commit tree `7ebab8fa530a7180036928cea9527f808548aa14`, full-index SHA-256 `6b40a76265c4f3e6d1d30a7f262a2dd16e0d51997e99c146b59f527e6524cd42`, and stable patch-id `058cf98026fcd1043703c866aee047c8bb144740` match.
+- rc.4 frozen-contract static check — PASS: the candidate key is unique in the declaration and precedes both dependent FKs; frozen contract files remain byte-identical to commit `3f6a3387b419eb99453ee10dd25ba888faaab0b5`.
+- `pnpm exec tsc -p docs/native-kanban-sot/tsconfig.json --noEmit` — PASS.
+- `pnpm format:check` — PASS.
+- `pnpm lint` — PASS (23 tasks successful).
+- `pnpm typecheck` — PASS (42 tasks successful).
+- Scoped diff — PASS: only the gate document and this scratchpad are authored changes; contracts, TASKS, requirements, runtime/schema/migration/config/dependency/CI/deployment and #757-owned files are unchanged. Live `.mosaic` session state remains untouched and excluded.
+- Remaining worker steps: final formatting/scoped staging, commit `docs(#753): clear KBN-010 schema gate`, queue guard, push, and control-plane notification.

+# Issue #755 — Logical Mos identity and connector lease fencing
+
+- Task: `MOS-PORT-M1-001`
+- Branch: `feat/mos-logical-identity-fencing`
+- Base: `origin/main`
+- Started: 2026-07-14
+- Working budget: 38K tokens (task ledger estimate); one implementation lane, bounded to M1.
+
+## Objective
+
+Implement the first runtime-portability security boundary: normalized logical-agent identity plus a PostgreSQL-durable exclusive connector lease and server-validated fencing grants.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Normalized identity contract independent of harness/provider-native session IDs.
+- DB migration/schema/repository for one lease per tenant/logical-agent/binding.
+- CAS acquire/takeover, monotonic epoch, TTL, heartbeat, release, expiry handling.
+- Server-derived grants bound to tenant, logical agent, binding, connector, scopes, expiry, and lease epoch.
+- Reject and credential-safely audit stale, expired, forged, unauthorized, cross-tenant, and cross-binding grants before adapter side effects.
+- Runtime adapter boundary consumes normalized lease context.
+- Unit, migration, close/reopen, concurrency, abuse, and gateway integration tests.
+- Required developer/operations documentation for schema and security behavior.
+
+## Explicit exclusions
+
+No checkpoint/handoff payloads, exactly-once journal/receipts, concrete Claude/Pi/Codex harness adapter, channel cutover, or full cross-harness failover E2E.
+
+## Reconciliation baseline
+
+- Prospective remediation handoff: `web1:coder1`; PR [#757](https://git.mosaicstack.dev/mosaicstack/stack/pulls/757), issue [#755](https://git.mosaicstack.dev/mosaicstack/stack/issues/755).
+- Before rebase: `dff8ce4f79ef90370c29d925002118a708010091`; required base: `origin/main` at `2e2280070ae67288be45f41743cf67052a8ca5a6`; original branch base: `d0771835542deab048ad8e79f271e3abdb6151f7`.
+- Provider metadata: #757 is open, targets `main`, head is `feat/mos-logical-identity-fencing`, prior CI is green, and the provider reports it is not mergeable because of conflicts.
+- Affected delivery paths: `apps/gateway/src/agent/agent.module.ts`; connector-lease gateway repository/service and three focused tests; `packages/agent/src/connector-lease.ts` plus test/export; `packages/types/src/agent/connector-lease.dto.ts` plus test/export; `packages/db/src/schema.ts`, migration `0016_salty_morlocks.sql`, Drizzle snapshot/journal; `docs/PRD.md`, `docs/SITEMAP.md`, MOS architecture/operations pages, this scratchpad, and `docs/tess/TASKS.md`.
+- Read-only merge-tree inspection found only `docs/PRD.md` and `docs/SITEMAP.md` conflicts. Current-main #756 channel contracts, #758 roster-v2 structural compiler, and Native Kanban SOT use distinct contract domains; no substantive architecture collision was identified before mechanical reconciliation.
+- Reconciliation constraints: retain all current-main #752/#756/#758/KBN content; add only nonduplicative #755 references; do not alter semantics or conflate connector leases/grants with Kanban task leases/fences, local Fleet leases, auth sessions, ResetSession generations, or federation grants.
+
+## Plan (TDD RED → GREEN → REFACTOR)
+
+1. Map existing contracts, DB/migration conventions, gateway authorization/audit boundaries, and test infrastructure.
+2. Add failing contract/repository/concurrency/restart/abuse/gateway tests and capture RED evidence.
+3. Implement the smallest normalized contracts, schema/migration/repository, grant validator, audit sink, and gateway service/adapter boundary needed to pass.
+4. Refactor for clear invariants and credential-safe observability; rerun focused suites.
+5. Run package/repo typecheck, lint, format, and appropriate tests.
+6. Run independent code + security review, remediate, and re-review.
+7. Inspect the final diff for security/scope drift; commit; queue guard; push; open PR with `Refs #755` and exact verification; stop without merge/issue closure.
+
+## Constraints and safety notes
+
+- `docs/tess/TASKS.md` is orchestrator-only and will not be edited.
+- Existing dirty `.mosaic/orchestrator/mission.json` and `.mosaic/orchestrator/session.lock` are launcher/orchestrator state and will not be staged or altered intentionally.
+- No client-supplied identity may confer authority.
+- No credential, token, or raw grant material may be persisted to audit/log output.
+- Existing authorization checks remain intact; fencing is an additional fail-closed layer.
+
+## Assumptions resolved from existing architecture
+
+- `ASSUMPTION:` M1 exposes no public lease endpoint. The gateway service is an internal policy surface with deny-all default policy because concrete connector activation/cutover is explicitly deferred.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` Fencing epochs use PostgreSQL `bigint` and cross-module decimal strings, preserving JSON portability without JavaScript number precision loss.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` Process-local grant provenance intentionally fails closed across restart; durable lease/epoch state survives and fresh grants require current policy + lease validation.
+
+## TDD evidence
+
+RED observed before implementation:
+
+- `corepack pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/types exec vitest run src/agent/connector-lease.dto.spec.ts` → failed to load missing `connector-lease.dto.js`.
+- `corepack pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/agent exec vitest run src/connector-lease.test.ts` → failed to load missing `connector-lease.js`.
+- Gateway focused tests failed before implementation because the new repository/service boundaries did not exist (workspace dependencies were then built before behavioral GREEN runs).
+
+GREEN to date:
+
+- Types contract: 6/6 passed.
+- Agent grant/fencing unit suite: 5/5 passed.
+- Gateway PGlite repository + policy/side-effect integration: 7/7 passed; 1 real-PostgreSQL test skipped when `DATABASE_URL` absent.
+- Real PostgreSQL focused run with configured `DATABASE_URL`: 1/1 passed (credential value not emitted in reports).
+
+## Documentation checklist
+
+- [x] `docs/PRD.md` contains current MOS-PORT M1 scope and acceptance criteria.
+- [x] Developer architecture: `docs/architecture/mos-runtime-portability-m1.md`.
+- [x] Admin/operations guidance: `docs/guides/mos-connector-lease-operations.md`.
+- [x] `docs/SITEMAP.md` links both pages.
+- [x] No user-guide change: M1 exposes no user-facing flow or channel cutover.
+- [x] No OpenAPI/endpoint-index change: M1 adds no HTTP endpoint.
+- [x] Migration/restart/rollback safety and credential-safe audit constraints documented.
+- [x] Canonical source remains in-repo; no external publishing action is in scope.
+- [x] Independent review confirms documentation matches implementation; implementation-specific findings were remediated.
+
+## Independent review and remediation
+
+Codex code/security review ran in multiple rounds. Findings and root-cause remediations:
+
+1. Policy could not inspect requested scope/TTL → policy subject now receives normalized requested scopes and explicit requested TTL.
+2. Unbounded authority lifetime → hard defaults cap leases at 5 minutes and grants at 30 seconds; overrides may only tighten; over-limit tests added.
+3. Cross-tenant denial could audit under submitted tenant → mismatch audit uses authenticated tenant plus sanitized `untrusted` target metadata; integration assertion added.
+4. Malformed forged grant could break the denial/audit path → runtime-safe shape validation with sanitized fallback audit; malformed-input test added.
+5. Gateway integration test depended on prior test state → denial test now seeds a unique binding itself; isolated `-t` run passed.
+6. Reviewer repeatedly identified launcher-generated `.mosaic/orchestrator/*` state; those files remain unstaged and excluded from the implementation commit.
+
+Latest independent security review: no critical/high/medium/low findings. Final commit-level code review remains to run after the intended diff is committed without launcher state.
+
+## Verification evidence
+
+- Focused contracts/fencing: types 6/6; agent 9/9.
+- Gateway focused PGlite repository/policy integration: 7/7; isolated denial test 1/1.
+- Real PostgreSQL close/reopen/CAS test: 1/1 with configured `DATABASE_URL`.
+- Root `corepack pnpm typecheck`: 42/42 Turbo tasks passed.
+- Root `corepack pnpm lint`: 23/23 Turbo tasks passed.
+- Root `corepack pnpm format:check`: all matched files passed.
+- Root `corepack pnpm test`: 42/42 Turbo tasks passed; gateway 616 passed / 12 environment-gated skipped; DB 19 passed / 7 environment-gated skipped; Mosaic 650 passed.
+
+## Known residual risks
+
+- Concrete connector policies and Claude/Pi/Codex adapters are intentionally deferred; production policy defaults deny-all.
+- Gateway pre-side-effect validation cannot make an external system exactly-once. Adapters must propagate/enforce the epoch at downstream effect boundaries; receipts/journaling are later #754 scope.
+- Migration rollback is additive-only; dropping lease/audit tables is intentionally manual to avoid destroying authority/audit evidence.
+
+## Commit-level review remediation
+
+- Commit-level Codex code review found one `should-fix`: heartbeat, release, and grant issuance authorized caller-supplied lease fields before canonical normalization.
+- TDD RED: the isolated gateway policy-boundary test showed mixed-case/padded logical agent, binding, connector, scope, and epoch values reaching policy unchanged.
+- Remediation: exported the coordinator's canonical lease normalizer and applied it at the gateway boundary before tenant/policy checks and coordinator dispatch for heartbeat, release, and grant issuance.
+- GREEN: isolated policy test 1/1; focused types 6/6, agent 9/9, gateway 8/8; root typecheck 42/42, lint 23/23, format check passed, and root tests 42/42 (gateway 617 passed / 12 environment-gated skipped).
+- Commit-level security review remained clean: no critical/high/medium/low findings.
+
+## Durable grant-expiry review remediation
+
+- Final commit review found a second `should-fix`: grant expiry was capped against submitted lease metadata after current-authority validation, rather than the durable lease row.
+- TDD RED: a crafted same-authority lease with a later submitted expiry produced a grant expiring after the durable row.
+- Remediation: grant authority fields and expiry now derive from the durable current lease; submitted scopes remain an additional narrowing constraint.
+- GREEN: focused agent fencing suite 10/10.
+
+## Current-main reconciliation (2026-07-14)
+
+- Rebased the existing PR branch from `dff8ce4f79ef90370c29d925002118a708010091` (old base `d0771835542deab048ad8e79f271e3abdb6151f7`) onto `origin/main` `2e2280070ae67288be45f41743cf67052a8ca5a6`; current uncommitted reconciliation head is `d190732a550918161b91d3eb54640f4ea0e2e499`.
+- Resolved only `docs/PRD.md` and `docs/SITEMAP.md`: preserved current-main #752 Native Kanban, #756 official-channel, and #758 FCM material; retained the nonduplicative #755 M1 workstream and placed its two documentation links in the existing Runtime-neutral Mos section. No #755 source semantics changed.
+- Compatibility review confirmed separate authority domains: connector lease/epoch/grant remains distinct from KBN task leases/fences, local Fleet roster lifecycle, auth sessions, ResetSession context, and federation grants. No channel cutover, adapter activation, checkpoint/exactly-once behavior, UI convergence, or #754 expansion was added.
+- Focused verification after building the required workspace dependencies: types contract 6/6; agent fencing/grant 10/10; gateway repository/PGlite and policy integration 8/8. The focused real-PostgreSQL test was skipped because `DATABASE_URL` was not configured; no credentials were inspected or emitted.
+- Generated schema check: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/db db:generate` reported no schema changes; migration `0016_salty_morlocks`, snapshot, and journal were unchanged by generation.
+- Full verification: `pnpm typecheck` 42/42; `pnpm lint` 23/23; `pnpm format:check` passed; `pnpm test` 42/42 (gateway 627 passed / 12 environment-gated skipped). Scoped diff check and local documentation-link scan passed.
+- Pending only: commit this reconciliation record, queue guard, force-with-lease push of the rebased existing branch, then fresh independent DB/code/security review and Ultron. Do not claim merge or issue closure.
+
+## Durable lifecycle-authority remediation (2026-07-14)
+
+- Independent review found that heartbeat and release authorized the submitted lease, allowing forged lifecycle scope data to influence policy before the durable row was consulted.
+- Remediation: lifecycle operations tenant-check the submitted lease, load the durable current lease, compare tenant, logical agent, binding, lease UUID, connector, epoch, and canonical ordered scopes, audit and deny any absent/mismatched authority, then run policy and coordinator lifecycle calls with the durable lease. Coordinator CAS/fencing checks remain unchanged.
+- Adversarial gateway integration coverage proves forged `tool.execute` scopes on a durable `runtime.send` lease deny before policy or mutation, preserve heartbeat/release state, and write a denial audit for both lifecycle actions; canonical heartbeat and release remain accepted.
+- Verification: focused types 6/6; agent 10/10; gateway PGlite integration/repository 9/9 with one `DATABASE_URL`-gated PostgreSQL test skipped; Drizzle check passed; root typecheck 42/42; lint 23/23; format check passed; root test 42/42 (gateway 628 passed / 12 environment-gated skipped).
+- Pending: commit, queue-guard, force-with-lease push, then independent DB/code/security rereview and CI. Do not merge or close #755.

+# Scratchpad — #756 Official Discord channel plugin
+
+- **Task / issue:** Official Discord channel plugin / #756
+- **Branch:** `feat/756-official-discord-plugin`
+- **Worktree:** `/home/hermes/agent-work/stack-discord-plugin`
+- **Base:** `origin/main` at `49e8a54105eddf41e8e0e44603ded616ee76044f`
+- **Objective:** Deliver harness-neutral Discord routing, native mention-to-thread behavior, untagged in-channel interaction, fail-closed channel/user authorization, and transport-neutral contracts for future official channel plugins.
+- **Collision boundary:** Do not modify orchestrator-to-Pi migration, logical-agent lease/fencing (#754/#755), runtime provider implementations, or orchestrator-owned `docs/TASKS.md`.
+- **Working budget:** 55K tokens for requirements, implementation, tests, documentation, independent review, and delivery. No user-specified hard cap. Reduce optional refactoring before reducing acceptance coverage.
+
+## Assumptions
+
+1. **ASSUMPTION:** Every configured Discord channel is intentionally agent-bound, so an authorized human's untagged message is agent input and receives an in-channel response. Rationale: this satisfies the requested no-tag behavior without activating the bot in arbitrary channels.
+2. **ASSUMPTION:** Mentioning the bot in a parent channel creates or reuses a public Discord thread; messages already in a thread remain in that thread without repeated mentions. Rationale: Discord does not support nested threads and the request describes tags as the thread-selection signal.
+3. **ASSUMPTION:** One bot process may host multiple configured channel-to-logical-agent bindings. Rationale: bindings are already configuration-owned and this avoids per-agent Discord credentials.
+4. **ASSUMPTION:** Static guild/channel/user allowlists and paired-user roles remain the administration surface for this slice. Rationale: dynamic admin UI is larger and can be added without changing adapter contracts.
+5. **ASSUMPTION:** The stable conversation handle contains logical agent plus Discord channel/thread identity and never a harness/provider identifier. Rationale: runtime re-enrollment and the active lease work can change Claude/Codex/Pi/OpenCode behind the same channel connection.
+6. **ASSUMPTION:** Canonical documentation remains in-repository for this slice; no external publishing is performed.
+
+## Plan
+
+1. Update `docs/PRD.md` before code with #756 scope, constraints, assumptions, and acceptance criteria.
+2. Add failing Discord behavior and authorization tests first.
+3. Add transport-neutral channel DTO/contracts in `@mosaicstack/types`.
+4. Implement mention-to-thread, untagged in-channel, existing-thread, stable conversation, and adapter health behavior without runtime-specific imports.
+5. Update admin/developer/channel protocol docs and documentation checklist.
+6. Run focused tests, typecheck, lint, formatting, full applicable baseline, and coverage.
+7. Run independent code and security review; remediate and re-review.
+8. Commit, queue-guard, push, open PR to `main`, wait for green CI, squash merge, verify merged CI, and close #756.
+
+## Progress
+
+- 2026-07-14: Loaded mission state (none active), global/project guidance, current `origin/main`, existing Discord/Tess/fleet connector architecture, issue #709 history, and active portability issues #754/#755.
+- 2026-07-14: Created issue #756 through the Mosaic wrapper.
+- 2026-07-14: Created isolated worktree/branch from current `origin/main`; the stale root checkout and unrelated QA artifacts remain untouched.
+
+## TDD decision
+
+Required and applied. This change modifies authorization-sensitive remote ingress and routing behavior. Failing permission and routing tests will be captured before implementation.
+
+## Risks / blockers
+
+- Active logical-agent lease work may later add stronger fencing fields. This slice must expose a clean, harness-neutral seam without duplicating that schema.
+- Discord thread creation is an external side effect. Unit tests use a typed fake; live credential smoke testing is out of scope and must not use committed secrets.
+- Repository-wide checks may expose unrelated baseline debt; changed-scope evidence and CI remain mandatory.
+
+## Verification evidence
+
+- `pnpm format:check` — passed.
+- `git diff --check` — passed.
+- `pnpm typecheck` — passed (42 Turbo tasks).
+- `pnpm lint` — passed (23 Turbo tasks).
+- `pnpm build` — passed (23 Turbo tasks).
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/discord-plugin test` — passed: 44 tests; V8 coverage 92.18% statements/lines, 86.55% branches, 100% functions (all configured thresholds ≥85%).
+- Focused gateway verification passed: Discord ingress/security, cross-surface, ownership, redaction/concurrency, and agent attachment tests.
+- `pnpm test` — changed-scope suites passed; repository baseline remains blocked by `apps/gateway/src/__tests__/cross-user-isolation.test.ts` requiring PostgreSQL at localhost port 5433 (`ECONNREFUSED`). The failure is unrelated to this change.
+- Independent code/security re-reviews requested after final remediation; reports are stored under ignored `docs/reports/` evidence paths.

+# FCM-M1-002 — Shared role resolution
+
+- **Task:** `FCM-M1-002`
+- **Issue:** `mosaicstack/stack#758`
+- **Branch:** `feat/758-shared-role-resolution`
+- **Starting head:** `32e75c67b094de443d37fe7d5ff8d25cdfc8b39d`
+- **Role:** implementation worker; independent review and merge remain outside this worker
+
+## Objective
+
+Reuse the existing baseline-plus-`roles.local` persona resolver as the sole class authority for roster-v2 semantics, profile validation, provisioning, and launch/persona resolution. Add exact approved alias canonicalization, fail-closed semantic validation, immutable canonical-class authority contracts, required baseline roles, and operator documentation without implementing lifecycle, mutation, credentials, certificate workflow, or later FCM cards.
+
+## Budget
+
+- Soft budget: **25K tokens**.
+- Strategy: inspect once, implement in small TDD units, run focused suites before the full package gate, and avoid unrelated refactors or M1-003/M2/M4 scope.
+
+## Plan
+
+1. Map the existing persona resolver, roster-v2 compiler, profile/provision consumers, launch resolution, role library, and focused tests.
+2. Write denial/invariant tests first for aliases, canonicalization-before-override, unreadable roles, authority boundaries, policy mismatch, canonical provision output, and resolver parity.
+3. Run the focused suites and record the expected red evidence.
+4. Implement one shared canonical resolution and authority contract in/through `fleet-personas.ts`; delegate roster semantic validation and profile/provision paths to it.
+5. Add baseline `validator`, `team-leader`, and `interaction` role contracts plus `LIBRARY.md` entries while retaining `operator-interaction` compatibility.
+6. Add the required role reference, alias migration, customization guide, and roster-v2 semantic handoff documentation.
+7. Run focused tests, the full `@mosaicstack/mosaic` suite, typecheck, lint, Prettier, `git diff --check`, situational verification, independent code/security review, and remediation.
+8. Commit with the required co-author trailer, run the CI queue guard, push the existing branch, and create/update exactly one PR to `main` with `Refs #758`.
+
+## TDD evidence
+
+### Red
+
+After installing worktree-local dependencies and building `@mosaicstack/db`, the pre-implementation
+focused run collected the intended tests and failed as expected:
+
+```text
+2 test files failed; 32 tests failed; 32 tests passed
+```
+
+Expected failures named the missing `canonicalizeRoleClass`,
+`authorityForCanonicalClass`, and `validateRosterV2Semantics` APIs, absent requested/canonical typed
+output, and unresolved required canonical role contracts. An earlier run that failed before test
+collection on an unresolved `yaml` dependency was treated as environment setup, not TDD evidence.
+
+### Green
+
+Focused role-resolution and affected service fixtures:
+
+```text
+6 test files passed; 109 tests passed

+
+The focused set covers personas, profiles, provision, launch persona contract, roster-v2 semantics,
+and the operator-interaction service fixture. The final profile tests also cover readable lead/floor
+compatibility and canonical collision denial.
+
+## Tests and gates
+
+- Focused suites: pass, **6 files / 109 tests**.
+- Full `@mosaicstack/mosaic` suite: pass, **50 files / 713 tests**. Workspace package build outputs
+  were prepared first because a clean worktree has no dependency `dist` entries.
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic typecheck`: pass.
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic lint`: pass.
+- Prettier check over every changed file: pass.
+- `git diff --check`: pass.
+- Runtime/file-boundary evidence: real role library, profile/provision filesystem integration,
+  launch-time synchronous contract injection, v1 roster parser round-trip, roster-v2 semantic
+  filesystem checks, and operator-interaction service fixtures all pass without live mutation.
+- Independent code review: **APPROVE**, no blocking or non-blocking findings; reviewed complete
+  tracked/untracked delta including the canonical collision guard. Residual: roster-v2 semantic
+  validation is an explicit async handoff with production caller wiring owned by later work.
+- Independent security review: **APPROVE**, no verified authority/security findings on the final
+  delta.
+
+### Post-PR fail-closed remediation
+
+Independent rereview found resolver fail-open edges that the original green PR head did not cover. The
+remediation remained uncommitted until every finding was reproduced red-first and the same reviewer
+approved the complete two-file delta.
+
+Final regression evidence:
+
+```text
+persona resolver: 47/47
+focused affected suites: 6 files / 138 tests
+root-container resolver suites: 86/86
+full canonical run: 42/42 Turbo tasks; Mosaic 50 files / 733 tests
+```
+
+DB migration, typecheck, lint, Prettier, and `git diff --check` also passed. Coverage now proves:
+
+- unreadable, unscannable, direct-dangling, ancestor-dangling, and literal `..` traversal override paths
+  fail closed across async, sync, listing, and status APIs;
+- genuinely missing override directories still permit baseline fallback;
+- cached missing scans are revalidated before fallback;
+- marker-defined identity and domain metadata are revalidated on the second read;
+- `LIBRARY.md` rows and incidental later markers cannot define, shadow, or advertise personas.
+
+Exact-head pipeline `1819` passed for rebased head `4d990eee…`, but the independent reviewer-of-record
+returned **REQUEST CHANGES** after reproducing three additional edge failures: a canonical filename could
+inherit protected authority despite a conflicting explicit first marker, cached `scanned` absence could
+miss an override created before baseline fallback, and inherited plain-object names such as `constructor`
+could corrupt alias/authority lookup. Merge remained held.
+
+Each failure was reproduced red-first in the persona suite (4 failing assertions), then remediated without
+expanding card scope. Explicit first markers now own identity and filename fallback applies only to
+markerless contracts; every second read rejects a newly introduced conflicting marker regardless of
+cached classification; cached async resolution re-scans the override layer immediately before every
+baseline fallback; alias and authority registries require own-property matches. Current uncommitted
+evidence is persona **52/52**, focused affected suites **6 files / 143 tests**, and full Mosaic package
+**50 files / 738 tests**, plus typecheck, lint, Prettier, and `git diff --check`. Independent
+finding-specific rereview **APPROVED** the complete uncommitted three-file remediation after direct
+adversarial reproduction of all three findings and the follow-up markerless TOCTOU. All post-commit
+exact-head gates remain required.
+
+## Risks and boundaries
+
+- **Security-sensitive authority:** authority must derive only from canonical class, never role prose, aliases, display names, or tool-policy text.
+- **Resolver divergence:** no second regex, registry, scanner, or prose parser may be introduced.
+- **Alias capture:** aliases must canonicalize before baseline/`roles.local` lookup so local files cannot redefine legacy aliases as separate authority.
+- **Readable persona requirement:** semantic success requires a resolved readable persona, not class-set membership.
+- **Scope control:** no roster mutation, lifecycle, lease issuance, certificate workflow/storage, credentials, remote reconciliation, provision-v2 conversion, or shipped-example disposition execution.
+- **Coordination:** `docs/TASKS.md` is read-only and remains orchestrator-owned.
+
+## Acceptance-evidence mapping
+
+| Requirement / criterion | Verification evidence |
+| --- | --- |
+| `FCM-REQ-02` shared semantic resolver | Async/sync resolver parity; roster-v2 delegates batched scans and resolution; profiles/provision and launch reuse `fleet-personas.ts`; no second scanner or class-marker regex added. |
+| `FCM-REQ-07` canonical classes and authority boundaries | Exact alias and non-alias tests; immutable authority invariant tests; all required canonical contracts resolve through the real role library. |
+| `AC-FCM-01` structural + semantic roster validation | Synchronous parser/normalizer tests remain intact; async semantic tests cover aliases, custom roles, unreadable/unresolved roles, `LIBRARY`-only rejection, and bidirectional protected policy mismatch. |
+| `AC-FCM-07` protected authority invariants | Denial tests prove merge-gate-only merge, validator certificate-only, orchestrator/team-leader/interaction limits, no implicit custom-role authority, and canonical tool-policy matching. |

+- `docs/fleet/reference/roster-v2-fields.md` semantic handoff
+- Baseline role contracts and `LIBRARY.md` rows for `validator`, `team-leader`, and `interaction`
+
+## Residual risks
+
+- Provisioning remains intentionally v1 and does not emit `reports_to`; canonical topology is retained
+  in its typed seat/summary path only, matching the existing v1 parser boundary.
+- Alias support remains for compatibility; new configuration should emit canonical identities.
+- This card defines authority metadata and validation only. Enforcement workflows for leases,
+  certificates, lifecycle, and mutation remain owned by later FCM cards.

+# FCM-M1-003 — Executable example/profile/service-preset dispositions
+
+- **Task / issue:** FCM-M1-003 / #758
+- **Branch / base:** `test/758-example-profile-dispositions` from `origin/main` `a5e8e554012f27898e035d2882a8e47e1a02fe97`
+- **Objective:** Make every artifact in the M0 legacy disposition inventory executable evidence: it must validate canonically, be explicitly retained as a v1 fixture, or be retired with a replacement/deprecation link.
+- **Scope:** Validation and explicit version/retirement metadata only for shipped examples, profiles, and the operator-interaction service preset. Reuse the central resolver and existing v2 roster compiler.
+- **Out of scope:** Generated environment boundaries, CRUD, reconciliation/apply, migration, live fleet mutation, and `docs/TASKS.md`.
+- **Budget:** 20K card allocation; use focused package tests before full package validation.
+
+## Plan
+
+1. Inventory exact shipped artifacts and existing compiler/resolver/profile tests.
+2. Add failing behavior tests covering all listed artifacts and their documented disposition.
+3. Implement minimal declarative fixture/disposition validation; do not add a role/class resolver.
+4. Run focused and package quality gates; obtain independent code and security review.
+5. Commit, queue-guard, push, open one `main` PR with `Refs #758`.
+
+## Progress
+
+- Intake complete: verified no branch, worktree, or open PR for this card before creating this isolated worktree.
+- Requirements read: FCM PRD, FCM-M1-003 task row, M0 disposition inventory, delivery/QA/documentation guides.
+- TDD: RED recorded with `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test -- example-profile-dispositions.spec.ts` failing because the new module did not exist; GREEN recorded after the minimal guard implementation. The focused suite now has 4 passing tests, including undeclared-artifact and missing-explicit-v1-version denials.
+- Independent review: initial code review found the service policy path was hardcoded; remediation iterates declared `canonical-service-policy` artifacts. Exact-head code review approved and exact-head security review found no issues.
+
+## Risks / decisions
+
+- The M0 inventory permits unresolved legacy roles only when explicitly v1-versioned or retired. Do not infer aliases beyond the three approved by FCM-M1-002.
+- `docs/TASKS.md` is orchestrator-owned and will not be edited.
+
+## Verification evidence

+- Focused TDD guard: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test -- example-profile-dispositions.spec.ts` — PASS (4 tests).
+- Full package suite: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test` — PASS (51 files, 742 tests).
+- Static gates: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic typecheck`, `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic lint`, and `pnpm format:check` — PASS.

+# FCM-M2-002 — Generation-Guarded Fleet Agent CRUD
+
+- **Task / issue:** FCM-M2-002 / #758
+- **Branch / base:** `feat/758-fleet-agent-crud` from `origin/main` `191efaefeb5c0c6bb218c1292d12ce8e73ace12b`
+- **Budget:** 30K card allocation; no deployment or live-fleet actions.
+
+## Objective
+
+Provide local roster-owned create, get, update, and delete mutations with a generation precondition, deterministic dry-run plan, complete-state structural/semantic/projection validation before writes, atomic roster persistence, and redacted recovery output on a late projection failure.
+
+## Scope and exclusions
+
+- Roster v2 is the sole desired-state authority. Reuse `parseRosterV2`, `renderRosterV2Yaml`, `validateRosterV2Semantics`, and the generated-environment boundary.
+- Fresh create defaults to `enabled: true` and `desired_state: stopped`; this card never starts a runtime.
+- Excluded: reconcile/apply; lifecycle/session/systemd/tmux actions; migration/canary; remote/connector/gateway mutation; arbitrary commands/channels/secrets; generated files as authority; `docs/TASKS.md` and orchestration ledger changes.
+
+## Red-first plan
+
+1. Add failing tests for dry-run non-mutation, stale generation, concurrent writer locking, stopped default create, equivalent idempotency, complete proposed-state semantic/boundary validation, atomic roster write, and injected late projection failure with redacted recovery details.
+2. Implement only a roster-v2 CRUD service and file adapter; no legacy `fleet add/remove` behavior expansion.
+3. Add operator/reference docs for JSON outcomes, generation retries, recovery, and no-runtime-action boundary.
+
+## Progress
+
+- Preflight: clean exact base and no duplicate PR confirmed.
+- Intake read: FCM PRD/AC-FCM-03, task row, launch and generated-env boundaries, roster v2/resolver contracts, legacy fleet command behavior, delivery/QA/TypeScript/security/documentation guidance.
+- TDD: RED observed for the missing CRUD module. GREEN: focused suite passes 7 tests covering stopped-default create, stale generation, idempotency, dry-run non-mutation, concurrent lock denial, exact stale/absent generated-projection delete cleanup, and redacted late-projection recovery.
+- REVIEW-1 remediation: RED observed for absent CLI create/get/update/delete/plan wiring. Added roster-v2-only JSON commands, including safe `get`, read-only planning/dry-run, explicit persisted-start recording (never runtime start), stable handled error codes, and focused CLI coverage.
+- REVIEW-2 remediation: RED observed for missing direct fleet-control-plane registration and ambiguous partial late-I/O result. The public surface is now direct `mosaic fleet {create,get,update,delete,plan}` (not root gateway `mosaic agent`); a late filesystem projection failure returns non-zero redacted JSON with `authoritativeRoster: committed` and `projections: incomplete`, proving no rollback/no-op claim.
+- REVIEW-3 remediation: RED observed for unnamed update/delete plans and deleted-agent quarantine conflict. `plan <operation> [name]` now requires target names only for update/delete; delete validates/removes only exact generated state while retaining local/legacy/quarantine/unrelated files. Actual CLI/filesystem tests cover create/update/delete plans, plan validation/non-mutation, retained artifacts/dry-run bytes, unsafe permission/symlink rejection, and post-roster delete recovery. Added the required operator how-to.
+- REVIEW-4 remediation: RED observed that actual Commander create accepted and silently dropped disallowed `command`, `channel`, and `secretRef` keys. The `--agent` object and nested `launch` now use strict own-property allowlists; non-plain/prototype-sensitive shapes and unknown keys fail `invalid-request` before resolver, roster, or projection mutation. Actual Commander plan/create/update tests cover top-level command/channel/secretRef/constructor/prototype/`__proto__` shapes and nested launch unknown fields, byte-identical retained artifacts, non-zero exit, and diagnostics that never echo rejected values. Docs state the same boundary.
+
+## Risks / assumptions
+
+- **ASSUMPTION:** M2 mutations operate exclusively on the existing v2 roster contract because generation/lifecycle fields are v2-only; legacy v1 add/remove commands remain unchanged compatibility paths.
+- A multi-file roster/projection write cannot be one filesystem rename. The roster is authoritative; a post-roster projection failure returns a redacted recovery plan naming only safe paths/actions, never environment values.
+
+## Verification evidence
+
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test -- fleet-agent-crud-command.spec.ts fleet-agent-crud.spec.ts generated-env-boundary.spec.ts` — PASS (48 tests after REVIEW-4 remediation).
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test` — PASS (54 files, 794 tests after REVIEW-4 remediation).
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic lint` — PASS.
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic typecheck` — PASS.
+- `pnpm format:check` and `git diff --check` — PASS.
+- Root `pnpm typecheck`, `pnpm lint`, `pnpm format:check`, and `git diff --check` — PASS after REVIEW-4 remediation; full package test is 54 files / 794 tests.
+- REVIEW-4 remediation focused checks are green; fresh full-delta independent review is required before author-green. No commit, push, or PR opened.

+# FCM-M2-001 — Generated Environment Boundary
+
+- **Issue/card:** #758 / FCM-M2-001
+- **Branch/base:** `feat/758-generated-env-boundary` from `origin/main` `e9c4aa3e8b3780719cd5a43c0ef3f37fc70de666`
+- **Budget assumption:** 30K-card budget; implement only the deterministic generated/local environment boundary and its launch-chain/docs/tests.
+
+## Objective
+
+Replace the generic fleet agent `.env` authority/merge path with a deterministic roster-derived `<agent>.env.generated` projection and strict, data-only `<agent>.env.local`. The roster remains the desired-state authority. Reject bad input before the launcher creates a tmux session; never print sensitive or privileged-command values.
+
+## Scope and non-goals
+
+- In scope: deterministic render/write, strict generated/local parse rules, legacy `.env` disposition/quarantine, systemd/launcher boundary, permission/path checks, focused fail-closed tests, operator/reference documentation, USC interface evidence.
+- Excluded: roster CRUD/mutation, v2 roster schema changes, lifecycle/reconcile/apply behavior, migration/canary rollout, connectors, remote surfaces, live-fleet actions, and M2-002.
+
+## Plan
+
+1. Add red tests for generated-key shadowing, malformed/duplicate/unknown/command/sensitive input, no-value diagnostics, deterministic/idempotent projection, secure file modes, and legacy disposition.
+2. Implement a pure strict environment contract plus atomic projection/quarantine helper.
+3. Replace the generic `.env` writer/merge path and systemd reference with `.env.generated` + `.env.local` ownership.
+4. Make the shell launcher parse the files without `source`/`eval`, reject unsafe input before tmux creation, and construct only the roster-derived runtime command.
+5. Add operator/reference documentation with the requested USC M1 interface evidence and M2–M4 gate statement.
+6. Run focused/package/root gates and audit the USC interface packet. Per continuation scope, stop before review, commit, push, PR, or live mutation.
+
+## Initial evidence
+
+- No existing owner: target worktree path absent; no target local/remote branch; `pr-list.sh -s open` returned no open PRs.
+- M1 compiler/API/docs and executable disposition evidence are present at the assigned base.
+- Existing launch chain writes `fleet/agents/<agent>.env`, preserves arbitrary legacy lines via `mergeAgentEnv`, sources `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND`, and executes it through `bash -c`; all are M2 remediation targets.
+- `~/.config/mosaic/guides/SECURITY.md` is absent. Read the available security-review role contract and the vault/secrets guide instead.
+
+## Verification log
+
+### Continuation (2026-07-14)
+
+- Preserved the inherited 14-file delta; no reset, stash, rebase, roster mutation, lifecycle action,
+  live-fleet action, commit, push, or PR action was performed.
+- Focused gates passed:
+  - `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test -- src/fleet/generated-env-boundary.spec.ts` — 1 file, 10 tests passed.
+  - `bash packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh` — passed.
+  - `bash packages/mosaic/framework/systemd/user/test-fleet-units.sh` — passed.
+  - `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test -- src/commands/fleet.spec.ts` — 1 file, 192 tests passed.
+- Package gates passed before final documentation/format follow-up:
+  - `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic typecheck` — passed.
+  - `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic lint` — passed.
+  - `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test` — 52 files, 752 tests passed.
+- `pnpm format:check` initially failed only for the new boundary reference and generated-boundary
+  TypeScript files; targeted Prettier normalization was applied. A final `pnpm format:check` passed.
+- USC packet audit: the M1 structural compiler is `parseRosterV2` with roster `version: 2`; the
+  semantic resolver is `validateRosterV2Semantics`; disposition artifacts retain `version: 1` fixture
+  evidence. `docs/TASKS.md` records M1-001 done, M1-002 in-progress, and M1-003 not-started; no
+  product release version is claimed. The packet now distinguishes these statuses from checkout
+  artifact presence and states the M2 → M3 → M4 downstream gates.
+
+## Review remediation (2026-07-14)
+
+- **Blocker 1 red-first:** Added a launcher reproducer with a `0777` `fleet/agents` parent and a private generated file. Before implementation, `bash packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh` failed: `FAIL: generated file under a world-writable parent was accepted`. The failure occurred after the launch path reached fake tmux, proving the parent was not validated.
+- **Blocker 2 red-first:** Added a `symlink()` projection-directory reproducer that preloads generated/local/quarantine/legacy target files and asserts no target mutation. Before implementation, `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test -- src/fleet/generated-env-boundary.spec.ts` failed the new test because the existing writer followed the `agentEnvDir` symlink and parsed its target legacy input (`expected /unsafe-directory/i`, received `code=malformed-line`). The initial test-only missing `mkdir` import was corrected before recording this behavior failure.
+- **Blocker 3 red-first:** Added fresh/stale/absent native-heartbeat regression coverage. Before implementation, an isolated fake-tmux launcher reproducer with a fresh `<agent>.hb.native` marker failed `FAIL: fresh native heartbeat was overwritten`; the existing sidecar immediately replaced native `status=busy`/`model` content.
+- **Remediation result:** The launcher now rejects a group/world-accessible or symlinked `fleet/agents` parent before an environment read or tmux call. The projection writer uses `lstat` before chmod/write processing and rejects a symlinked directory without creating generated/local/quarantine files or deleting legacy input. The heartbeat sidecar defers to a fresh non-symlink native marker and falls back when stale/absent. Focused green evidence before independent review: `bash packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh` and `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test -- src/fleet/generated-env-boundary.spec.ts` (11 tests) passed.
+- **Independent-review follow-up red-first:** Codex code review returned one blocker and security review one medium CWE-732 finding: the writer repaired an already `0777` directory with `chmod` before trusting its contents. Added a reproducer with a safe local file beneath an existing `0777` directory. Before the follow-up fix, `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test -- src/fleet/generated-env-boundary.spec.ts` failed because the promise resolved and wrote `coder0.env.generated` instead of rejecting.
+- **Independent-review remediation:** Existing directories now pass non-following private-directory validation before any read or chmod; only a directory created in this call is normalized to `0700`. The fleet-add test fixture now creates its simulated trusted `fleet/agents` boundary at `0700`; this corrects fixture setup to match the new required contract rather than weakening the rejection assertion. Focused reruns passed: generated-boundary 12 tests, launcher boundary suite, and fleet suite 192 tests.
+- **Final verification before re-review:** Launcher + systemd suites passed; package suite passed (52 files, 754 tests); package lint/typecheck, root typecheck (42 tasks), format check, and diff check passed. The rerun code review still reports a tmux command-arity blocker, and the security rerun reports systemd `EnvironmentFile` pre-validation injection findings for both agent units. These were discovered after the specified three-remediation scope; no additional source changes were made. Independent review therefore remains `REQUEST CHANGES` despite the requested three fixes passing their behavioral suites.
+
+## Systemd pre-validation remediation (2026-07-14)
+
+- **Red-first:** Updated the fleet unit contract to reject any `EnvironmentFile=` projection preload, require a cleared bootstrap environment, and require a validated exact-stop path. Before implementation, `bash packages/mosaic/framework/systemd/user/test-fleet-units.sh` failed: `FAIL: agent units must not preload projections before strict parsing`.
+- **Red-first parser/stop coverage:** Added interaction-wrapper and exact-stop cases to the launcher boundary suite. Before implementation, `bash packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh` failed: `FAIL: interaction did not use shared strict parser first`, because the interaction wrapper consumed inherited environment before projection validation.
+- **Focused green:** Both unit templates now use `env -i` with fixed `HOME`, agent instance, and PATH; neither has `Environment=`/`EnvironmentFile=`. The interaction wrapper delegates to `start-agent-session.sh --interaction`, so strict generated/local parsing precedes pinned Pi profile checks. `--stop` reuses the strict generated parser before exact `=<agent>` socket/session termination. Passed: systemd unit suite, launcher boundary suite (including malformed interaction, pinned profile, and ambient-socket stop cases), and 210 focused TypeScript tests.
+- **Final verification:** `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test` passed (52 files, 754 tests); package lint/typecheck, root typecheck (42 tasks), format/diff, and shell syntax checks passed. Security review passed with no findings. Code review repeated the previously refuted tmux argv concern and a pre-existing Claude trust-lock suggestion; per the assigned narrow follow-up, no tmux or unrelated trust-path change was made.
+
+## Risks and next review
+
+- This card is uncommitted and unreleased. The canonical tracker still records its dependencies as
+  M1-002 in progress and M1-003 not started; this continuation does not reinterpret those task states.
+- Final post-documentation checks passed: `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic typecheck`,
+  `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic lint`, `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test` (52 files, 752 tests),
+  `pnpm typecheck` (42 Turbo tasks), and `pnpm format:check`.
+- Obtain independent code and security review of the complete delta next. Do not run commit, push,
+  PR, or live-fleet commands in this continuation.
+
+## Fresh-install directory remediation (2026-07-14)
+
+- **Objective:** Remediate only the fresh-install path where `installFleet` created `fleet/agents`
+  with host-umask permissions before the boundary writer correctly rejected it.
+- **Plan:** Add a real `fleet install --no-enable` integration reproducer; prove red; let the
+  existing boundary writer own directory creation; run focused and full gates. No commit, push,
+  PR, review disposition, or live-fleet action.
+- **Red evidence:** Before the one-line remediation,
+  `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test -- src/commands/fleet.spec.ts` failed the new test with
+  `AgentEnvBoundaryError: code=unsafe-permissions` at `ensurePrivateProjectionDirectory`, after
+  `installFleet` pre-created the directory.
+- **Change:** Removed only the recursive `mkdir(activePaths.agentEnvDir)` in `installFleet`.
+  `writeAgentEnvironmentProjection` remains the sole creator and retains its existing `lstat`,
+  private-directory, symlink, and existing-unsafe-directory fail-closed checks.
+- **Focused green:** `pnpm --dir packages/mosaic test -- src/commands/fleet.spec.ts` — 193 tests
+  passed. The new integration executes a fresh `fleet install --no-enable`, asserts a real
+  non-symlink `0700` directory and a `0600` generated projection. Existing unsafe-directory
+  coverage remains in `generated-env-boundary.spec.ts` and asserts no chmod repair/no generated
+  file write.
+- **Full gates green:** generated-boundary 12 tests; launcher and systemd suites; package
+  typecheck/lint and 52 files / 755 tests; root typecheck (42 tasks), lint, format, diff check,
+  and root test (42 tasks) all passed.
+- **Independent review:** The complete inherited uncommitted delta still has Codex `REQUEST CHANGES`
+  findings outside this narrow fix (tmux command arity and Claude trust-lock regression), plus a
+  security-review medium finding on unvalidated writable ancestor directories. No out-of-scope
+  source changes were made.
+- **Risk:** The writer's existing create-then-validate sequence is relied on for the creation
+  boundary; a concurrent substitution causes fail-closed validation rather than repair. The
+  review findings above remain residual risks for the complete card delta.

 # Tess Plugin Authoring
 
 Plugins are replaceable adapters. Declare capabilities, derive scope from trusted context, preserve correlation IDs, redact before persistence/egress, and return unsupported operations as fail-closed results. Names and identities are configuration data, not literals in keys or defaults.
+
+## Official channel adapter contract
+
+Official Discord, Matrix, Slack, and future channel adapters share contracts exported from `@mosaicstack/types` under `channel/`:
+
+- `OfficialChannelAdapter` provides `name`, `start()`, `stop()`, and non-throwing connection `health()`.
+- `ChannelMessageDto` and `ChannelAttachmentDto` normalize transport data with JSON-safe metadata.
+- `ChannelBindingDto` and `ChannelAuthorizedPrincipalDto` normalize configuration-owned logical-agent binding and the already-allowlisted/paired external actor.
+- `ChannelIngressDto` carries operation, correlation, native message ID, authorized principal, normalized message, and stable route into `ChannelIngressPort`.
+- `ChannelConversationRouteDto` binds a configured channel to `logicalAgentId`, stable `conversationId`, authorization parent, and response target.
+- `ChannelEgressDto` and `ChannelEgressPort` separate where a response is delivered from the gateway's runtime/provider selection.
+
+`ChannelConversationRouteDto` deliberately has no harness, provider, model, process, or native runtime-session field. The gateway owns runtime selection, durable enrollment, authorization, audit, and lease/fencing. A channel adapter must not call Claude, Codex, Pi, OpenCode, tmux, or Matrix runtime providers directly. Discord currently preserves its signed Socket.IO compatibility ingress for established gateway authentication/replay/approval controls while normalizing the same ingress DTO; supplied direct ports are the future registration path.
+
+## Adapter requirements
+
+1. Resolve configuration-owned channel and logical-agent bindings before dispatch. A binding may carry a trusted gateway agent-config reference, but the stable route contains only the logical agent; gateway verifies the reference resolves to that agent before runtime selection.
+2. Apply channel-native allowlists and paired-user roles before any external side effect such as thread creation.
+3. Preserve native message ID, correlation ID, channel/thread address, attachments, and response target.
+4. Treat normal channel parents (for example Discord categories) separately from thread parents.
+5. Keep reconnect and conversation identity independent of the active runtime provider.
+6. Report sanitized connection/routing failures without message bodies or credentials.
+7. Pass the shared route/authorization contract suite plus adapter-specific translation tests.
+
+Discord establishes the first policy: authorized untagged messages respond in the configured channel; a mention creates a thread or reuses the thread already attached to that message; existing thread messages stay there. Runtime control commands remain on the current durable session. Matrix and Slack should translate native rooms/threads into the same route and response-target semantics rather than adding transport branches to gateway core.

 # Tess User Guide
 
+## Discord conversations
+
+In a configured Tess/interaction channel, an authorized untagged message is sent to the bound logical agent and its response appears in the channel. Mention the bot when starting a separate topic: Mosaic reuses a thread already attached to that same Discord message, or creates a new thread for the message, and responds there. Continue in that thread without tagging the bot again. Messages from unconfigured channels or users without an authorized pairing are ignored without creating a thread.
+
+`/approve` and `/stop <approval>` operate on the current channel/thread session and do not open a new thread. The Discord connection is bound to the logical agent conversation, not Claude, Codex, Pi, OpenCode, or another harness; a runtime handoff behind Mosaic does not change where you continue the conversation.
+
+## CLI and HTTP interaction
+
 All HTTP interaction calls require authenticated session credentials and `X-Correlation-Id`. Use `GET /api/interaction/{agentName}/sessions?provider=...` to list only visible runtime sessions, then enroll with `POST .../sessions/{sessionId}/enroll` body `{providerId,runtimeSessionId}`. Attach uses `{mode:"read"}`; send uses `{content,idempotencyKey}`. Stop requires `{approvalRef}` and fails with 403 without the exact durable approval. Recovery only requeues interrupted durable work.
 
 Memory is user-scoped: preferences support list/get/upsert/delete; insights support list/get/create/delete; search body is `{query,limit?,maxDistance?}`. Mos work is handed off with `POST /api/coord/mos/handoff`; observe and result use the returned handoff ID.

+## Mandate

+2. Route orchestration requests to the orchestrator and merge decisions to the merge-gate.
+3. Report supported actions and their outcomes without claiming another role's authority.
+
+## Boundaries
+
+- Request/status only; it does not orchestrate, issue leases, approve-to-land, or merge.
+- It does not mutate roster configuration, role authority, or credentials.
+- A configured instance name such as Tess is display data, never a class or authority source.
+- `operator-interaction` remains a compatibility alias for this canonical class.

+
+## Behavior
+
+- Runs independently of the bound agent's Claude, Codex, Pi, OpenCode, or future harness.
+- Routes authorized untagged messages in configured agent channels and replies in-channel.
+- Creates a public Discord thread when the bot is mentioned in a parent channel, or reuses the thread already attached to that same message.
+- Keeps follow-ups in existing threads without requiring repeated mentions.
+- Keeps `/approve` and `/stop <approval>` on the current durable session.
+- Applies guild, parent-channel, user, pairing, role, and per-minute abuse limits before thread creation or gateway dispatch.
+- Authenticates to the gateway and signs ingress envelopes with the injected service token.

+
+Supply credentials through the approved runtime secret mechanism. Never commit tokens or binding data containing secrets.
+
+Example binding shape (identifiers are placeholders):
+
+```json
+[
+  {
+    "instanceId": "interaction-agent",
+    "agentConfigId": "agent-config-id",
+    "guildId": "guild-id",
+    "channelId": "channel-id",
+    "pairedUsers": {
+      "discord-user-id": {
+        "role": "operator",
+        "mosaicUserId": "mosaic-user-id"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+]
+```
+
+Each binding's trusted `agentConfigId` must identify a provisioned database agent configuration whose name exactly matches its `instanceId`. Roles are `viewer`, `operator`, and `admin`. `viewer` cannot send agent turns. Runtime approval and stop operations require an `admin` pairing with a provisioned `mosaicUserId`.
+
+The bot needs Discord permissions to view/send messages in configured channels and create/send in public threads. A channel category is not an authorization boundary; threads inherit authorization only from their configured parent text channel.
+
+## Shared contract
+
+The adapter implements `OfficialChannelAdapter` from `@mosaicstack/types`. `ChannelConversationRouteDto` carries only stable logical-agent/channel identity and a response target. Gateway durable-session and provider layers own runtime selection and handoff; Discord code must not import a harness SDK.
