# Task Ledger — first release

**Superseding user direction:** large horizontal creation buttons were rejected as intrusive and unprofessional. The user explicitly authorized consulting the installed Capella; that consultation has resumed and established actual compact palette, inline rename and explicit activity-allocation behavior. See [Capella 7.1 evidence and selected redesign](release-capella-basic-editing-20260907.md). The current candidate replaces creation/connection rows with one compact expandable palette and an in-place name editor. Native acceptance of the redesigned executable is pending; compactness is not assumed to prove usability. The earlier Escape hold and proposed toolbar-only correction below are superseded.

**Latest evidence:** basic editing full desktop584/584, bins, formatting and strictClippy passed. Native named Entity creation works at100%, but changing pending-toolbar height moves the screen placement22px. User Escape stopped the attempted Undo; native checks are paused again. Code-only toolbar correction proceeds. [Current findings](release-basic-editing-reset-20260907.md). The previous goal turn made concrete progress through implementation, integration gates and a native-discovered defect; this is not a no-progress blocker turn.

**Current steering:** basic diagram authoring and understandable OA/SA transitions come first. The user explicitly reauthorized desktop checks; root resumed the isolated test build and reproduced the reported usability problems. Creation, transition and independent fixture work is underway. No new basic-editing native pass is claimed. See [priority reset](release-basic-editing-reset-20260907.md); older execution priorities and Escape hold are superseded.

Updated 2026-09-07 after source7 Reset/ReadStatus and old6 recovery native passes, OA contextual persistence with rendering open, and reproducible Linux server test deadline evidence. Native Linux core now passed436/0failed/2ignored and its guest shut down cleanly. Old5 full recovery and source7 pending nested-link crash recovery/history/reopen also passed; routing3/3 and full desktop564/564 now pass. Root's private-server/full-server/format/strict-Clippy/bins sequence is running with results pending. [STATE.md](STATE.md) owns current execution/evidence and leases. [PLAN.md](PLAN.md) owns the release plan; [DECISIONS.md](DECISIONS.md) preserves architectural rationale. Full pre-consolidation contents, including superseded requirements interpretations and evidence, remain [archived byte-for-byte](history/2026-09-06-ledgers-before-consolidation/TASK_LEDGER.md).

## Goal and success criteria

The authoritative user objective is `C:\Users\User\.codex\attachments\10b0f701-1743-4de7-9ee1-225920e19649\goal-objective.md`. Deliver a usable, substantially complete OA/SA engineering tool in Rust/Iced on Windows and Linux; equivalent graphical, strict textual/reST and REST workflows; practical artifact traceability; navigable offline guidance; recoverable drafts; reproducible deployment. Completion requires native engineering task evidence and fresh independent end-state review, not implementation or passing tests alone. Later Arcadia layers remain future scope.

## Given facts and constraints

- User prioritizes Capella domain fidelity, useful containment/nesting and explicit typed ports, while avoiding clutter, persistent action overload and awkward navigation. Study real domain workflows rather than mechanically copying Capella classes.
- Both-layer transitions and reviewed counterpart reconciliation must be intuitive and precise. Behavior/scenario diagrams must be directly editable and preserve selection/camera/task context.
- Human/AI/Git-friendly modular source, comments/includes, complete graphical/source/API parity and clear rejection are required. One validated model/history boundary must govern every representation.
- User permits autonomous reversible engineering, experiments, independent agents and authorized native work. Root is the sole native operator in this collaboration. Do not run concurrent shared Cargo writers. No remote push, usage reset, broad target deletion or host restart is implied by current task authorization.
- User permits isolated Linux work. WSL remains unavailable pending restart; earlier task-local QEMU core and server gates completed and shut down cleanly; the separate source7 core gate also completed and shut down cleanly, as recorded below. The server built and passed real HTTP/restart checks; its full test command timed out during compilation before any test executed. Historical external worktrees/toolchains are not present on this machine.

## Verified facts

- Latest superseding checkpoint: Fit6 and both existing scroll/branch regressions, full desktop570/570, workspace bins, format and strict workspace/all-target Clippy pass. Windows preview565-file ZIP and complete examples are verified; current server56/56 also passed. Native BCC1 OA/SA nested routing and unchanged-source oracles passed, followed by bounded DC50 packaged Fit overview. Earlier pending-build/routing claims below retain their historical scope and are superseded by these exact current results in STATE.md.

- Branch/patch/tree audit established that direct state/scenario/process, data contracts, hosted editing and earlier semantic review are already integrated; no required production transplant was found. [Branch evidence](release-branch-integration-20260906.md).
- Capella's function input/output exchange endpoints and component Standard/Flow ports are distinct; explicit allocation connects them. Preserve that domain distinction. [Native benchmark](release-capella-workflow-benchmark.md).
- Source6 introduced participant CommunicationMean, typed explicit transition endpoint decisions, saved exchange categories/view selectors, completeness warnings and presentation duplication; current source7 retains them. Older audit absence claims are superseded; native acceptance remains scoped by reports.
- Semantic review includes independent scalar/constructor/keyed/order/Child/Incident/artifact facets and multiple source rows. One frozen accepted base, explicit mappings, unique merged candidate slots and one atomic command preserve raw excluded/rejected drafts. Recovery replans; it never restores an unchecked serialized command. [Batch design](release-semantic-batch-foundation-design.md), [artifact contract](release-semantic-artifacts.md).
- Native Windows artifact MOVE/CREATE/DELETE passed exact complete Save/Undo/Redo oracles, nine first-attempt saves. MOVE invalid raw optional state and CREATE exclusion/reserved identity survived controlled-stop recovery exactly. Destination-only retention is automated evidence, not separately native-applied in that run. [Native report](release-artifacts-native-20260906.md).
- Native batch, Child/Incident and source-5 checkpoint workflows have scoped exact source/recovery/history evidence. Dense views have persistence/duplicate/hide and bounded readability evidence. Current counts, binaries and remaining cases are in STATE.md; these are not universal usability claims.
- Native communication means drawing, explicit create/reuse ports and reverse Call/Reply pass independent complete model/source and exact Undo/Redo checks. The reverse navigation/overlapping-placement defect is fixed and reverified against a distinct oracle:10newUUIDs,zero implicit placements, correct Behavior owner and preserved Architecture. [Exact evidence](release-communication-native-20260906.md).
- Windows semantic108desktop+2core/full527desktop passes remain scoped. Subsequent guide/home and behavior navigation slices passed focused tests/strict Clippy/build; semantic navigation is also natively reverified. Fresh source7 core all-targets433passed/1ignored across44 summaries and server55/55 across4 summaries have recorded exit0. Full desktop561/561 passed263.39s after a real scroll-state regression was fixed with a stable navigation Column; the unchanged test passed. Strict workspace/all-target Clippy and root-observed final format exit0 pass;3 affected semantic tests passed after equivalent lint edits. Subsequent routing3/3 and full desktop564/564 pass; new standalone build and strict/server results remain pending. Logs and exact scope are in STATE.md; do not add affected reruns to full-suite totals.
- Native Scenario ordered review passed ambiguity rejection, explicit retained-local final order and complete Save/Undo/Redo source oracles at1100×700. Current guide binary passes related-topic heading reset, same-topic search scroll retention and Git auto-selected-topic reset without dirtying the model. Branch/fragment order variants and revised artifact diagnostic rendering remain separate gates. [Native ordered evidence](release-current-native-verification.md), [guide/diagnostic implementation](release-semantic-conflict-diagnostics-20260906.md).
- Windows user-local GNU/LLVM builds and isolated clean-PATH native launch work. Actual Ubuntu24.04.4/Rust1.90 core/journal tests pass on hashed snapshots. Actual Linux server build and real HTTP modular import/invalidPUT/cleanrestart exact source/model/ETag pass on the older28-source lesson snapshot. Its full server test command timed out during compilation with zero tests executed, then that gate shut down cleanly. The current frozen source7 gate compiled the server in17m10s and passed unit2/2 plus HTTP50/51; the sole504-vs-412 timing assertion failed again alone. Its final persisted-state checks were not reached. Native core436passed/0failed/2ignored and the VM shut down cleanly08:13:56UTC; full desktop/Linux package remain unverified. [Linux evidence](release-linux-validation-options.md).
- Corrected30-source/37-file teaching project passes minimum-size Home/guide/dirty-source guard, located initial warning, reviewed NameTake and complete exact source/Undo/Redo/reopen checks. The layer/canvas mismatch is corrected and natively reverified. Data/interface/type navigation, saved-view distinctions, invalid-view draft guard and typed state Entry fold/rename/history/reopen pass. The process workspace is cramped at minimum size and artifact navigation required excessive scrolling; targeted source7 UI improvements await native observation. [Native evidence](release-teaching-native-20260906.md).
- Scope reconciliation established caller-context links into repeated/nested reusable chains (**S1**) and maintained interface-operation selection for parameterless messages (**S2**) as real missing semantics. Their ratified source7 implementation now has fresh full core/server/desktop gates, OpenAPI72 fixtures and strict reST evidence. Old5/6 compatibility and current7 raw recovery tests pass. Root's native Reset and ReadStatus cases passed complete Save/Undo/Redo oracles and reopened with explicit derived allocation30/31. OA First.B persistence/history/reopen passed but rendering is open; old6 recovery passed full30-source/model JSON and exact raw workspace/Ports DTO comparison. Old5 complete raw/accepted recovery, exact repaired30-source save/full-model export pass. Current7 invalid nested draft crash recovery and completed link Save/Undo/Redo/reopen also pass; corrected rendering and remaining native7/Linux workflows remain open. [Native report](release-source7-native-acceptance-20260907.md). [Scope reconciliation](release-scope-reconciliation-20260906.md), [integration decision](release-source7-integration-decision-20260906.md).

## Decisions and candidate designs

Retain three Rust crates, one typed Project and validated atomic Command. Keep semantic ownership, reference/allocation/order relationships and diagram placement separate. Forms remain a closed typed adapter, not a second metamodel. Persistent additions require model validation, references/deletion, transition, parser/updater, API/schema and reachable graphical editing parity.

Semantic reconciliation uses finite typed facets and separate member/presence/order decisions. Compare actual destination slots before constructing the core's complete candidate; two rows never become sequential Apply. Missing identities are not inferred by names. Raw constructor/numeric/keyed/optional drafts survive rejection, exclusion and checkpoint recovery. Artifact Presence means attachment to the reviewed owner; an identified source moved away can delete the destination, whereas a source key of None preserves destination-only membership. No invented tombstone or silent seed acknowledgment.

Source updates preserve lexical ownership/comments/includes and exact history. Checkpoint source5/6→7 upgrade admits only the established token/typed migration contract, validates old base fingerprints and resets transient approvals; it does not silently rebase authored drafts. Hosted saves remain explicit and conditional on the resource/ETag; credentials stay in memory.

For Linux journal publication, ordinary rename lost the empty-target ownership invariant in a real ext4 probe. Selected `renameat2(RENAME_NOREPLACE)` through existing locked libc with no fallback; syscall errors fail before model writes. Alternative overwrite fallback was rejected by that falsifier. Windows native no-replace/retry behavior is retained; other OS behavior is explicit. [Contract, alternatives and measured limits](release-linux-journal-publication.md).

Root selected **F1**, a complete source-6 teaching-project example. Corrected model/replay tests and bounded native onboarding/review/history pass; the full process/scenario/state/data/evidence lesson remains open. **F2**, faithful behavior-canvas SVG export, is deferred: current export scope is architecture-only, not a claim of faithful scenario/process/state export. Record this as an explicit scope decision rather than an accepted behavior-export result.

Behavior-root transition Apply should focus the explicitly requested counterpart and its nearest behavior owner. Without an explicit destination diagram it must preserve unrelated architecture presentation. Ordinary architecture transitions retain their existing path; explicit destination remains honored. This decision follows the independently reproduced reverse scenario placement/navigation failure, not a semantic change to the core transition.

## Assumptions and open questions

- Nested source and contextual editors should reduce authoring effort; additional shorthand/grouping must justify grammar or interaction complexity through real tasks. Dense-view path overlap is not itself a failure when every actual identity remains accessible; arbitrary crossing-free layout is not promised.
- Remaining native variants must establish useful engineering workflows: CM transitions, advanced OA process/SA chain/scenario reuse/fragment/order, typed state actions, compact/Linux/hosted cases, and uncovered saved-view lifecycle combinations. Do not expand or shrink required OA/SA scope merely to fit implementation convenience.
- Latest diagnostic/reserved-label corrections have independent review and completed semantic/full-desktop/Clippy/build checks; their revised artifact rendering still needs native verification. The historical source6 process3012 closed cleanly. The6BAB source7 native build passed the scoped cases above;11060 and old6 recovery11240 closed cleanly. Old5 recovery/repair/save/model and current7 nested draft recovery/history/reopen pass on that binary. Later routing/hit-priority changes passed3focused/full564 desktop tests; root is running the server/format/strict/build sequence with results pending, and no corrected-render native acceptance is transferred. Exact binary scope is in STATE.md.
- Historical Linux evidence includes x86_64/glibc2.39/ext4 core/MSRV and server/HTTP runtime. Current455-file snapshot SHA256 `7104946c89b2be7a1a030fdff47cb4405bacf05357d68cf35d181e860f55c279` is frozen; core completed436passes/2ignored before clean VM shutdown08:13:56UTC; its original08:32:43UTC deadline was not reached. The hash-verified cross-built probe executed successfully on Linux, including its Windows macro/build-script build path, but no complete Linux GUI has been built. Syscall failure tests do not establish power-loss durability, network-filesystem behavior or cross-process model CAS. [Current Linux gate](release-source7-linux-gate-20260907.md).
- Earlier Windows QA packages include runtime/notices and verified archive contents; final accepted-tree optimized distributions and exact provenance/checksums remain a release gate. [Packaging evidence](release-windows-package-review.md).

## Current strategy

The requested Windows preview and whole-run development summary are delivered; the summary is being refreshed with the confirmed package, full570/570 desktop result and final Fit/strict/build gates. Preview DC50 has bounded native launch/overview evidence, not complete minimum-height/pending-form acceptance. Computer Use stopped on user Escape, so leave live GUI processes untouched and advance independent verification.

Preserve the successful immutable458-file Linux GUI cross-build with the Fit fix, exact ELF/package evidence and released compiler lease. Three subsequent guest boots reached terminal IO-APIC timer panic before any tests; exact-kernel extraction succeeded but automatic approval review denied the proposed transient workaround. All task VMs are stopped. Preserve the denied action and evidence without bypassing review. Its snapshot/run/hashes and actual process status belong in STATE.md and the cross-build report. Preserve the original interrupted runs, cache, native core436/2ignored and failed Linux timed-server fixture. The replacement private HTTP preparation test and full server56 pass on Windows; Linux execution remains required.

Guide steps now name Tools/Selection details/Restore panels and the exact Reply label; formatting, independent label review and a fresh Windows workspace-binary build pass. The user-facing preview retains its original tested bytes. Independent full-model/source purpose oracles compiled and passed both self-checks and preserved baseline cases; complete their native authoring/history steps when control resumes. Complete current native OA/SA teaching, artifact, saved-view, process/scenario and hosted cases once control is available. Retain caller-specific budgets, actual port proof, independent channel validation and exact old5/6 recovery bytes. Final optimized packages, current platform gates and fresh independent end-state review remain open; architecture-only SVG and passing slices do not redefine completion.
