# Debate Findings & Dispositions — Mosaic Platform PRD
> **Convener:** mos-claude-1 · **Date:** 2026-07-09 · **Panel:** 9 personas × 2 rounds (8 Claude lenses + independent Codex runtime), 20 agents, ~1.05M tokens
> **Artifacts:** `jarvis-brain:docs/scratchpads/mosaic-platform-prd-debate/` (THREAD.md — full transcript · SYNTHESIS.md — Principal-Engineer close-out)
> **Mandate (Jason, 2026-07-09):** "debate and make judgment calls." D1D12 were held fixed; the panel attacked only the implementing structure. Dispositions below are the convener's judgment calls, folded into the sibling docs in this directory. Items marked **OPEN — Jason** need his call at ratification.
## How to read this
Every synthesis finding (SYNTHESIS.md §1, items 124) is dispositioned here. **Accepted** findings are folded into the PRDs/YAML as inline fixes or "Debate-accepted deltas" rows; this file is the traceability record. Severity labels are the panel's (P0 blocker → P3 note).
## P0 findings — all accepted, folded inline
| # | Finding | Disposition |
| --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 1 | Storage-authority contradiction (X2 "relational + flat-file backends" vs Q "Postgres sole record") | **Accepted.** X2 rewritten: Postgres authoritative for all product entities; flat-file backend is a derived, regenerated, **read-only projection**. |
| 2 | Phase-1 Jarvis executes external PA ops before the relay exists (J2 vs NS-11) | **Accepted.** J2 split: **J2a** workspace-internal entities (phase 1) / **J2b** external integrations (phase 2, `depends_on: [P2]`). Phase-1 has no external credential path at all. |
| 3 | `phase` vs `depends_on` disagree; dispatcher obedience undefined | **Accepted.** Phases encoded as real DAG edges (`X2 depends_on [J2a, P2]`, J2b gate above); sandbox dispatch-test added to ratification checklist (README Gate Zero §). |
| 4 | Four load-bearing upstream artifacts unverified (memory subsystem, Hermes-MCP tool equivalents, push pipeline, wake/event router) | **Accepted.** README gains **Gate Zero** (pre-ratification artifact audit); presumed-MISSING rows get goal cards now: **M1** (memory subsystem), **J6** (event/wake router), **K3** (push pipeline). Parity map's MCP row re-pointed at concrete deliverables. |
| 5 | X-R4 migration manifest wrong about its own source tree (phantom `tickets.json`, unlisted dirs, six divergent memory stores, live Vikunja sync unmapped) | **Accepted.** X-R4 rewritten: migrator stage 1 = machine-generated source census (incl. untracked paths + all memory stores), per-path disposition, any `unknown` blocks; re-point list generated from `tools/sync_*.py`; Vikunja disposition line added to X-R6. |
## P1 findings — all accepted
| # | Finding | Disposition (folded as deltas) |
| --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 6 | Events have no provider join key; re-point duplicates the calendar | **Accepted.** Provider-sourced events migrate **from the provider**; flat files supply only brain-native events. DST/recurrence fixture is the AC (X-R6 delta). |
| 7 | Approval pipeline has no state machine (double-execute / approve≠execute) | **Accepted.** P deltas: CAS on one durable row, terminal states, consumed-event dedupe table (shared substrate with bridge + wake dedupe), payload persisted at request time, poll/ack outcomes, per-capability retry class, staleness bound, `approved_unexecuted` alarm, re-surface = re-**prepare** with machine diff. |
| 8 | "Cannot bypass by construction" false: agent-readable vault creds + host-resident creds outside the relay | **Accepted.** Credentials gateway-only + scoped capability tokens; P1 gains host credential inventory with continuous scheduled scan in the health floor; clean-host AC passes with empty exemption list. |
| 9 | Silent auto-deny steady state (fail-closed TTL + single surface + unprovisioned push) | **Accepted.** K gains homeserver ops + monitored push (K3); CLI approval surface ships **with** P2; delivered/seen tracking + TTL/2 escalation; `denied` / `expired_seen` / `expired_unseen` distinct terminal states. |
| 10 | Prompt injection → durable memory; wake turns add system-role injection | **Accepted.** J2 write-side trust rule (transitive `source_trust=external`; standing-instruction-shaped content needs user ratification before retrievable); wake turns templated with provenance-tagged data fields. |
| 11 | Exactly-one-Jarvis has no fencing incl. the Matrix send path | **Accepted.** New **J-R16** workspace lease `(workspace_id, epoch)` CAS row in product Postgres; epoch on every write; pre-send lease re-check; takeover notice; degraded = mute-with-notice. NS-10 amended: one main agent per **workspace**. |
| 12 | Matrix principal resolution undefined (Codex #2, unanswered in R2) | **Accepted.** K/P delta: immutable Matrix user ID + bridge provenance + workspace membership → product principal; unlinked/bridged-unlinked identities read-only, cannot approve/butt-in/trigger external writes. All four Codex fixtures = deny + audit. |
| 13 | Policy evaluation time undefined (Codex #7, unanswered in R2) | **Accepted.** Immutable policy snapshot on every prepared action/card; execution revalidates or fails `policy_changed`; delegated effects gated by grant **intersection**. |
## P2/P3 findings — accepted (see per-PRD delta sections)
14 Hermes evidence snapshot **before** stop (machine gate) · 15 Q1 crash barriers + `external_refs` unique-index table (one mechanism, three consumers) · 16 rollback honestly scoped (transport-only, point-of-no-return = first native card) + bounded day-30 review with three recorded outcomes · 17 human-attention budget (rate limits, quotas, deferrable flag, away state) · 18 self-referential-loop containment (provenance labels, source-grounded retrieval preference, retrieval eval gate ≥50 queries / ≥90% baseline recall@5 + negative queries, tombstones, priority budget, day-1 trend telemetry) · 19 butt-in exclusive lease + structured control-plane API + break-glass doctrine · 20 default-closed capability gating with `unclassified` third state · 21 per-agent atomic approval-routing cutover table · 22 `needs-decision` card lifecycle (immutable spec + typed amendments; `ratified_by` authorizes dispatch, never merge) · 23 retention class per durable table; dedupe pruning checkpoint-coupled · 24 AC-NS-8 made measurable (distinct quota pools pinned in profile; TTFT p95 ≤ 1.2× baseline, ≥30 interleaved turns).
**All accepted.** None conflicts with D1D12.
## Open disagreements — convener judgment calls
| § | Question | Call |
| --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 3.1 | Gate architecture: tiered blocking pack (Moonshot+Ops+ML-Cal) vs 4 artifact-existence machine gates + pass/fail-free pre-registered dossier (Contrarian) | **Adopted the agreed floor now** (4 machine gates on irreversible transitions, pre-registration, priced amendments, day-1 emission — folded into X). Superstructure choice is **OPEN — Jason**. Convener recommendation: **Contrarian's dossier + dumb gates** — the tier demonstrably gamed itself within one debate round (13+ claims vs cap 10, slot-riding, zero demotions); simple machine gates don't degrade under pressure. |
| 3.2 | Audit schema: additive-only typed schema (Coder-Data) vs six-field mandatory envelope + typed payloads + pinned checked-in queries (Contrarian) | **Adopted: minimal envelope + schema-on-read** (folded into P1 delta). Rationale: preserves "can't add data later" essentials without a god-schema by committee; an additive typed layer can be grown later where query pain proves it. |
| 3.3 | Unclassified capability: reject at call time vs version-scoped activation hold vs capability-scoped hold | **Adopted: capability-scoped hold** (Contrarian R2#6a, synthesis editor concurs) — gate the capability, ship the version; security patches are never pinned behind classification. |
| 3.4 | Away mode: fail-closed expiry labeled `expired_during_away` vs suppress preparation while away | **Adopted: suppress preparation** of non-deferrable requests while away + audited suppressed-preparations list swept on return. Cleaner than labeling corpses; nothing expires that was never surfaced. |
| 3.5 | Memory-exclusion scope for measurement artifacts | **Adopted: normative/parametric split** (Contrarian R2#4) — rules the agent is scored against stay retrievable; thresholds/seeds/drill timings/canary templates are excluded. |
| 3.6 | Statistical instruments | **Adopted:** deterministic named crash barriers as the gate; residual randomized soak is **trace-directed**, not wall-clock-uniform. |
| 3.7 | K2 scope narrowing by Hermes traffic audit | **Adopted as a Gate Zero action:** run the audit pre-ratification; platforms with live traffic become the must-have subset gating X3. |
## Process rules adopted (README)
- **Gate Zero** — pre-ratification upstream-artifact audit (`present @ SHA` or MISSING → goal card).
- **Conflict register** — spec contradictions block the requirement, not the mission ("alert, don't auto-resolve" promoted to specs).
- **DoD line** on every goal card (runbook, health-floor alerts, AGENTS.md).
- **Silent-roster rule** — a panel member's silent round records their open findings as open items, never consensus (Codex's R2 silence on #2/#7 is the instance; both were folded as P1 items 1213 above, explicitly not consensus-resolved).
## Addendum — logging & telemetry (Jason, 2026-07-09, post-debate)
Requirement raised outside the panel, folded in the same pass: Mosaic Stack must support **inbound error reporting/logging** from agents and installs, plus **optional anonymous agentic-efficiency telemetry** — no IP or PII capture, opt-in. The P0 of this capability already exists: **MALS** (Mosaic Agent Log System, FastAPI+Postgres, `~/src/mals`), currently dark because its k3s migration landed without an Ingress (tracked: infrastructure #135). Folded as new **workstream L** (L1 restore MALS · L2 Mosaic-native ingestion · L3 anonymous telemetry) + standing objective **NS-14**. Day-1 trial-metric emission (finding 18) targets MALS until W3 panels exist.
