 Run this gate after the optional summary refresh and before any lifecycle
 mutation. Initialize `SELECTED_PROJECT_RECAP_RUN=""`.
 
-When `SHOULD_GENERATE_RECAP="true"`, inspect manifests under
-`{PROJECT_PATH}/explainers/` before generating. A fresh `project-recap` manifest for the current completed implementation is reused without invoking the adapter again. Fresh means the manifest identifies recipe `project-recap`, belongs to this project, has a terminal outcome, and its recorded source hashes match the current approved implementation inputs, including the refreshed summary when present.
-
-If no fresh recap exists, probe seam availability before invoking the adapter.
-Call `oat-explainer-kit/scripts/probe-recap-seams.mjs#probeRecapSeams` in
-`mode: unattended` with the exact seam inputs this step would pass. The probe is
-pure and covers all five required seams — author, fact critic, browser session,
-visual critic, and set planner — so a host missing only the set planner is
-detected here instead of at the adapter's `E_SET_PLANNER_REQUIRED`. When
-`OAT_AUTONOMOUS=1`, pass the result to autonomous intent resolution as
-`seamProbe`. The resolver accepts a `seamProbe` only for autonomous
-`projectRecap`, so an interactive completion keeps the decision recorded at the
-batched prompt and does not pass one.
-
-In autonomy, a probe result of `seams-unavailable` means no provider is
-configured for a required seam. Autonomous resolution then returns a recordable
-`skip` with source `capability_probe`: record it with the warning, leave
-`SELECTED_PROJECT_RECAP_RUN` empty, and complete without a recap. That
-probe-driven skip record supersedes the intent resolved and persisted earlier in
-this run for the remainder of the run: persist it through the same
-`oat-explainer-kit` intent-persistence helper with a freshly captured state hash,
-treat any `SHOULD_GENERATE_RECAP="true"` set from the earlier resolution as
-stale, and pass the skip — not the earlier `generate` — to the terminal-outcome
-guard as `--intent skip --skip-reason capability_probe`. Passing the superseded
-`generate` with no manifest raises `E_RECAP_OUTCOME` and blocks completion,
-which is the exact failure this gate exists to prevent. An interactive
-completion is unchanged: the decision recorded at the batched prompt governs, a
-recorded `generate` still attempts the recap, and a run that fails for a missing
-seam is still the `failed` outcome it is today. A probe result
-of `seams-invalid` means a seam is supplied but violates a resolution rule:
-report the configuration error and fail closed. Never convert a
-configured-but-invalid seam, or a run that failed after a passing probe, into a
-skip; that run stays `failed`.
-
-In autonomy, attempt the adapter run exactly once and only when the probe resolves every seam; an interactive `generate` still attempts the run regardless of the probe result, and a seam-less interactive attempt is still the `failed` outcome it is today. The autonomy gate and the interactive rule are two separate rules and are never read as one.
-
-When the gate above allows the attempt, invoke `scripts/run.mjs#runOatExplainer` exactly once with recipe `project-recap`, project invocation, the active project, and unattended lifecycle mode so approved OAT artifacts do not trigger a second content prompt. A returned `failed` outcome warns but does not block completion. An invocation that returns no terminal outcome blocks lifecycle mutation. Use a returned valid terminal `project-recap` manifest as the selected run; do not rerun to improve its outcome.
-Before that invocation, construct exactly one brief-aware, provider-neutral
-author seam as documented by
-`oat-explainer-kit/references/author-callback.md`. In-process callers pass
-`author`; JSON/CLI callers pass a validated `authorModulePath`. Supply it
-alongside the existing `critic` callback (or validated
-`criticModulePath`), and invoke the recap with `mode: unattended`.
-
-The author seam is the recap's quality mechanism, so derive its output from the
-request rather than from ambient context or a stock recap shape. Cover every
-`floor.requiredNarrative` section, ground each claim in the supplied `factBase`,
-and follow the inlined `brief` for structure — evidence tables for the
-implementation and validation sections, at least one high-level architecture
-diagram, and lists where material is enumerable. A recap whose warnings include
-`guideline-narrative-coverage-missing`, `guideline-structured-depth-missing`, or
-`guideline-architecture-diagram-missing` is thin: it still completes, but treat
-those warnings as the signal that the authored content did not use the evidence
-it was given.
-
-Set `SELECTED_PROJECT_RECAP_RUN` only to the final selected `project-recap` run. The value must be project-relative in the form `explainers/<run-slug>` so it can be passed safely to the archive CLI. An incomplete, stale, wrong-project, or `project-explainer` manifest is never selected as the final recap.
-
-Before any lifecycle mutation, invoke the shared
-`oat-explainer-kit/scripts/check-terminal-outcome.mjs` guard with the resolved
-intent and, for `generate`, the selected or attempted manifest. The only
-terminal generated outcomes are `built-durable`, `built-not-durable`,
-`built-needs-review`, and `failed`. Missing records and `incomplete` block
-completion; do not substitute a warning or infer an outcome from filesystem
-presence. A `skip` intent requires no manifest; pass its recorded source as
-`--skip-reason` so the receipt states why no recap exists.
-
-When recap intent resolves to `skip`, leave `SELECTED_PROJECT_RECAP_RUN` empty
-and complete without a recap. This covers both an interactive skip and a
-probe-driven `capability_probe` skip; neither prompts, and neither blocks
-completion. A terminal `failed` recap attempt is recorded as
-a warning rather than changing project completion status.
-
-`project-explainer` runs are active-project working artifacts, not durable post-completion reference products. Do not export, re-attest, or add archive-aware PR or summary reference links for a `project-explainer` run.
-
-For `IS_DURABLE_PROJECT="false"`, never export a tracked project recap and never construct or pass `--project-recap-run`. This is the local scope. A local-scope recap remains `built-not-durable` unless its manifest already contains independently verified publish evidence. Do not treat local filesystem presence as durability.

+`explainers/` itself, re-reads the persisted decision, and performs manifest
+discovery only for `generate`. Its route and authoring permission are
+authoritative even when an earlier in-memory resolution set
+`SHOULD_GENERATE_RECAP`.
+
+A persisted `skip`, including `skip/failed_attempt`, returns route `skip`
+without touching `explainers/`, suppressing manifest discovery, bundle, and

+For route `generate`, inspect only the manifest candidates returned in

+package without invoking the adapter. Fresh means the manifest identifies
+recipe `project-recap`, belongs to this project, has outcome `built` or

+match the current approved implementation inputs, including the refreshed
+summary when present.

+`RECAP_AUTHORING_PERMITTED="true"` from that same boundary before invoking the

+invocation, the active project, and `mode: unattended`. The executable boundary
+does not fabricate host-agent authoring; it gates permission for the lifecycle
+caller that performs the installed core check, resolves inputs, theme, and
+output root, then runs `bundle` → host-agent authoring → `verify` → `record`.
+Lifecycle generation never prompts. Use the first available browser rung; a
+missing browser becomes `built-needs-review`, not a skip or block.
+
+`built` and `built-needs-review` satisfy generation. Set
+`SELECTED_PROJECT_RECAP_RUN` only to that final satisfied project-recap run, as
+the project-relative path `explainers/<run-slug>`. A stale, wrong-project,
+`project-explainer`, `failed`, or `incomplete` manifest is never selected.
+
+On `failed` or `incomplete`, show the sanitized cause and require an explicit
+retry or skip before lifecycle mutation. Under autonomy, retry once. If that
+retry also fails, persist `skip/failed_attempt` with a fresh state hash and
+`failed_attempt_evidence` naming that run's project-relative failed/incomplete
+`manifest.json` or `failure.json`. Re-read it through the executable consumer
+before continuing. Never silently skip a failed attempt.
+
+Before any lifecycle mutation, invoke `"$RECAP_TERMINAL_GUARD"` with the
+persisted intent. For `generate`, pass the selected package's canonical
+`manifest.json`; for `skip`, pass `--project-root "$PROJECT_PATH"`, the
+recorded source, and `"${RECAP_TERMINAL_EVIDENCE_ARGS[@]}"`. This passes only
+the failed-attempt proof path already validated and canonicalized by the
+executable consumer.
+The outcome vocabulary is `built`, `built-needs-review`, `failed`, and
+`incomplete`: only the first two satisfy generation. Missing packages do not
+satisfy generation.
+
+`project-explainer` runs are active-project working artifacts, not
+post-completion reference products. Do not export or add archive-aware PR or
+summary reference links for a `project-explainer` run.
+
+For `IS_DURABLE_PROJECT="false"`, never export a tracked project recap and
+never construct or pass `--project-recap-run`. This is the local scope. Do not
+treat local filesystem presence as project durability. Shared and synced recaps

-For a durable project that was not archived, use the selected active run and
-omit `relocatedFrom`, but keep the same `completion-bookkeeping` mode. Resolve
-the finalizer repository root as `ACTIVE_PROJECT_PATH`, not the parent
-checkout. Use `PROJECT_REF_COMMIT`, not the parent-branch `LIFECYCLE_COMMIT`,
-as the active recap artifact commit. Its immutable paths must be present in
-that exact project-ref commit. The parent record commit is separate durability
-evidence for discovery and must never be substituted into the project-ref
-history.
-
-When the finalization plan is `complete` with `built-needs-review` or `failed`,
-preserve that exact outcome and skip both attestation and the evidence commit.
-These evidence-only plans are already complete for lifecycle retention and
-remain unpublishable. Call `verifyTrackedRunFinalization(...)` on the complete
-plan; it must not promote either outcome to `built-durable`.
-
-For archive completion, the lifecycle bookkeeping commit is the artifact
-commit. For non-archive synced completion, `PROJECT_REF_COMMIT` is the artifact
-commit. Call the compatible
-core's `recordDurability(...)` with the finalizer's planned request. Submit only immutable paths under `projectRecapExport.exportRoot` as commit evidence for an archived recap; `manifest.json` and `build-record.json` are mutable records and
-must not appear in that evidence path list. The successful exported-path
-attestation supersedes the prior active-path evidence. Verify the resulting
-manifest records the old evidence in `supersedes` and reports the final
-tracked export path.
-
-Never submit the gitignored archive path as commit evidence. Local archive
-presence cannot make a recap durable.
-
-A failed exported recap attestation does not fail project completion. Preserve
-the tracked export, report `built-not-durable`, retain actionable recovery
-details, and continue to the evidence commit.
-
-### Step 10.6: Commit Evidence + Push
-
-When Step 10.5 ran and neither Step 7.5 nor the synced archive-resume executor
-restored `EVIDENCE_COMMIT`, create the evidence update. Commit only the exported `manifest.json` and `build-record.json` as the evidence update, including warning-bearing records from a failed attestation. On failure, commit the warning-bearing `manifest.json` and `build-record.json`. Run
-`verifyTrackedRunFinalization(...)` with the artifact commit, immediate evidence
-commit parent/order, exact evidence paths, attestation outcome, and unchanged
-unrelated-change snapshots.
-
-Archive completion is exactly two commits when recap attestation runs:
-
-1. lifecycle bookkeeping, including the tracked recap export; then
-2. final recap evidence records.
-
-Push once after both commits exist so they travel together. If no attestation
-ran, push the lifecycle bookkeeping commit once. If verification detects
-contamination or wrong commit order, do not push. If push fails, report the
-failure and do not claim completion is fully recorded.
-
-The evidence update remains a direct, exact-path Git commit. Stage only the
-reported exported `manifest.json` and `build-record.json` under tracked
-`.oat/repo/reference/project-recaps/`:
-
-```bash
-UNRELATED_STAGED_PATCH_BEFORE=$(git diff --cached --binary)
-git add -- "$EXPORTED_MANIFEST_PATH" "$EXPORTED_BUILD_RECORD_PATH"
-git commit --only -m "chore(oat): attest final project recap" -- \
-  "$EXPORTED_MANIFEST_PATH" "$EXPORTED_BUILD_RECORD_PATH"
-EVIDENCE_COMMIT=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
-test "$(git rev-parse "$EVIDENCE_COMMIT^")" = "$LIFECYCLE_COMMIT"
-test "$(git diff --cached --binary)" = "$UNRELATED_STAGED_PATCH_BEFORE"
-EVIDENCE_PUSH_REQUIRED="true"
-```
-
-Verify the evidence commit contains exactly those two paths, the lifecycle
-commit is its immediate parent, unrelated-change snapshots remain unchanged,
-and then push once. The archive command does not own this evidence transition;
-use the direct exact-path commit above.
-
-For a non-archive synced recap, stage and commit only the active run's reported
-`manifest.json` and `build-record.json` from inside `ACTIVE_PROJECT_PATH`. The
-non-archive recap evidence commit must be the immediate child of
-`PROJECT_REF_COMMIT` in the project checkout. Verify exact commit containment
-and the unchanged unrelated-state snapshot, then publish the evidence commit
-with `oat project push`, retaining the custom ref and checkout. Require the
-push receipt SHA to equal the evidence commit. Recovery reuses the existing
-project-ref artifact commit and parent-branch record commit; it never moves
-active recap files into archive-export paths.
-
-Use the same path-confined commit inside the synced checkout:
-
-```bash
-ACTIVE_MANIFEST_RELATIVE_PATH="$SELECTED_PROJECT_RECAP_RUN/manifest.json"
-ACTIVE_BUILD_RECORD_RELATIVE_PATH="$SELECTED_PROJECT_RECAP_RUN/build-record.json"
-UNRELATED_PROJECT_STAGE_BEFORE=$(git -C "$ACTIVE_PROJECT_PATH" diff --cached --binary)
-git -C "$ACTIVE_PROJECT_PATH" add -- \
-  "$ACTIVE_MANIFEST_RELATIVE_PATH" "$ACTIVE_BUILD_RECORD_RELATIVE_PATH"
-git -C "$ACTIVE_PROJECT_PATH" commit --only \
-  -m "chore(oat): attest final project recap" -- \
-  "$ACTIVE_MANIFEST_RELATIVE_PATH" "$ACTIVE_BUILD_RECORD_RELATIVE_PATH"
-EVIDENCE_COMMIT=$(git -C "$ACTIVE_PROJECT_PATH" rev-parse HEAD)
-test "$(git -C "$ACTIVE_PROJECT_PATH" rev-parse "$EVIDENCE_COMMIT^")" = \
-  "$PROJECT_REF_COMMIT"
-test "$(git -C "$ACTIVE_PROJECT_PATH" diff --cached --binary)" = \
-  "$UNRELATED_PROJECT_STAGE_BEFORE"
-```
-
-When Step 7.5 restored `EVIDENCE_COMMIT` for a non-archive completion, do not
-stage or commit recap records again. Require the retained remote ref to equal
-that exact evidence SHA, keep its immediate parent equal to
-`PROJECT_REF_COMMIT`, and preserve the recovered `PROJECT_LINKS_PIN_COMMIT`.
-When the synced archive-resume executor restored `EVIDENCE_COMMIT`, likewise do
-not re-attest, stage, or commit: it already required the evidence commit to
-change exactly `EXPORTED_MANIFEST_PATH` and `EXPORTED_BUILD_RECORD_PATH`, with
-`LIFECYCLE_COMMIT` as its immediate parent. Its `EVIDENCE_PUSH_REQUIRED`
-receipt determines whether the one parent-branch push remains pending. All
-unrelated staged-state snapshots must remain byte-for-byte unchanged.
+- The lifecycle bookkeeping commit must contain the tracked recap export when
+  one was selected.
+- Snapshot unrelated working-tree changes and verify they remain unchanged.
 
 For every synced archive completion, including `SYNCED_ARCHIVE_RESUME="true"`,
-push the parent branch exactly once after the lifecycle receipt and any recap
-evidence commit are final. Verify the pushed upstream contains the exact final
-bookkeeping commit before continuing to PR closeout or claiming completion:
