Applies the document contract from
docs/plans/2026-08-20_stack-docs-flatten-and-alignment.md section 3, partially:
`kind` and `status` only. `parent` is deliberately held until the flatten in
section 4 lands, so that 127 documents do not have to be re-pointed by hand
when docs/fleet/NORTH_STAR.yaml moves to docs/NORTH_STAR.yaml.
Scope, measured on origin/next at 63069149:
127 live docs = all *.md under docs/ minus docs/archive/ minus docs/_old_structure/
104 stamped here
19 held operator judgement (plan section 9), worklist in the same PR
3 held the SUPERSEDED TASKS.md stamps, which cite the moving path
1 untouched docs/fleet/FLEET-DOCTRINE.md, already stamped in W1
Kinds applied: 54 guide, 34 record, 9 spec, 6 tracking, 1 projection.
Every row carries a confidence and a one-line rationale in the worklist.
Two collisions with the existing state, both flagged rather than resolved:
1. docs/README.md:150-160 already documents a front-matter convention
(title/type/audience/status/source_of_truth) with its own allowed values.
It is applied to 4 of 127 files. Its `status` vocabulary is
current|draft|deprecated|historical; the new contract's is active|superseded-by.
The key collides. This commit lets the new contract win and rewrites
`status: current` to `status: active` on those 4 files, keeping their other
legacy keys untouched. No code reads any of them: `git grep source_of_truth`
outside docs/ returns nothing. docs/README.md still prescribes the old
convention and is an operator row, so it is not edited here.
2. Two of the plan's 20 operator rows are YAML files, not markdown
(docs/fleet/examples/roster-v2.yaml, docs/openapi-tess.yaml), and the
contract's front-matter form has no defined meaning for a .yaml document.
That gap also applies to docs/fleet/NORTH_STAR.yaml, the source of truth
itself. Raised in the worklist.
A third row from the plan, docs/fleet/north-star.md, no longer exists: W1
renamed it to docs/fleet/FLEET-DOCTRINE.md.
Verification: 104/104 parse with the expected kind and status in front matter;
the check was shown to reject a wrong kind before it was trusted. The diff
removes 4 lines total, all of them `status: current`.

Reconcile and Recover a Local Fleet
Safe sequence
- Read mosaic fleet doctor and mosaic fleet status.
- Run mosaic fleet apply --expected-generation --dry-run.
- Resolve stale generation, ownership mismatch, unsafe path, projection validation, or unmanaged-session findings before applying.
- Run mosaic fleet apply --expected-generation only after the plan is understood.
This is per-generation convergence, not a rolling canary. Executable canary cutover/rollback remains held for FCM-M4-002; rolling local release evidence remains FCM-M5-002. Do not approximate either with repeated live apply commands.
The reconciler uses the exact roster tmux socket, exact holder session, private installation holder identity, and the complete expected global environment. For mutations it acquires its exclusive lock before rereading the canonical roster and fencing its generation; only that under-lock roster drives validation, planning, projections, and lifecycle effects. Before effects, its exclusive lock proves real private MOSAIC_HOME and fleet ancestors, uses a private 0600 lock leaf, and binds cleanup to the created file identity and ownership token. A fake holder, contaminated global environment, missing identity, unsafe lock path, or unmanaged session fails closed. It does not adopt, kill, or rename any unproven session. A crash can leave a stale lock for explicit operator inspection; reconciliation deliberately does not guess ownership or remove it.
Partial results
The roster is never changed by reconciliation. If derived projection application partially fails, JSON reports:
{
"applied": false,
"authoritativeRoster": "unchanged",
"projections": "incomplete",
"lifecycle": "not-applied",
"recovery": { "code": "projection-apply-failed", "action": "regenerate-projections-from-roster" }
}
If projections completed but lifecycle work failed, JSON reports projections: "complete", lifecycle: "incomplete", and the bounded action rerun-after-inspecting-owned-resources. If lock cleanup cannot be proven after an effect result, it adds cleanup: { "code": "lock-cleanup-failed", "action": "inspect-lock-before-retry" } without changing the known projection, lifecycle, or primary recovery truth. Inspect the retained lock before retrying; no rollback, release, or stale-lock removal is implied. Results do not include environment values, secrets, or privileged command content.
