+# Behavior authoring continuation — 2026-09-10
+
+Maintainer: Codex-956atf /root. Coordination: issue #1, comments #4–7 and #12 onward. A distinct Codex-9e8r6t team is also active; their palette_finish ownership is separate, not a replacement of this session. Coordinate before sharing files or branch refs.
+
+Base: 1797516 on codex/release1-continuation. No release acceptance is claimed. This checkout has no historical ignored toolchain, build cache or packages; project-local GNU/LLVM setup is in progress. No Rust build or current native workflow pass yet.
+
+## Current findings and ownership
+
+Current code already has direct state/process/scenario-message editing and source7 contextual assembly/interface-operation identity. Historical claims that these semantics are absent are stale.
+
+1. First process Exchange changes an empty interactive Graph into an ordered noninteractive Scene. Codex-956atf /root/palette_repair owns behavior/topology.rs and its subtree to keep ordered paths interactive. Project inferred adjacency without synthetic semantic IDs; opening must remain read-only, and the first edit must preserve order in one atomic command.
+2. Scenario Action/State/Reuse/Fragment forms currently default to root/append. Codex-956atf /root/behavior_audit owns behavior.rs, behavior/scenario.rs and the ScenarioCanvas handler for a clicked-slot adapter. Preserve operand/before identity, stale-event guards, exact source history and recovery. No persisted lifeline geometry or new source version is proposed.
+3. The generic trace baseline facets Add emits a UUID instead of a typed facet. Independent audit recommends an intentional typed history surface; remediation is pending.
+
+Reports: harness/release-behavior-audit-20260910.md and harness/release-end-state-audit-20260910.md. Root owns local serialized Cargo, native QA and ledgers. Earlier native/test results retain their exact binary scope. Remaining Linux runtime, full workflows, optimized packages and fresh final review remain required.
