 ## Unreleased
 
+## 7.1.57 — Reading is not reaching: corpus reachability, spec pins, the document is the record (2026-09-01)
+Applies the field-trial revision of the change proposal. Its P1/P4/P5/P6/P9 shipped in 7.1.55–56 and the trial marks them **field-tested** — briefed verbatim into two agents that were not told they were observed, scored on instruments fixed in advance: correct ordering, 4 real citations, 0 fabrications, and a published not-read list. **Three proposals are new, and one claim was corrected.**
+
+- **Reachability (new, the trial's own discovery).** The trial's agent followed the reading rule exactly and still missed the entry written for its exact bug — because that entry named `cto` in its own front matter and was linked from `cqo`'s index alone. Lazy loading tells a reader to consult `{shared, own-role}`; that is a **promise about reachability**, and where it is not kept the rule does not narrow the search, **it hides the entry**. Measured: 69 items, **10 unreachable role-routings, 7 invisible to a role the entry itself named** — every one written by a single role and filed only under that role's index. New `scripts/harness-corpus-reachability.sh` audits and (`--fix`) repairs this; `harness-gotcha-register.sh` gains `--roles` and auto-links at registration, so an entry cannot be filed under its author alone. **P1 makes agents read the index; this is what makes the index worth reading.**
+- **Spec pins (new).** `scripts/harness-spec-pin.sh` records the version **and content hash** of every external spec a mission builds against in `{mission}/spec-pins.json`, and re-verifies before completion and archive. This was the trial's actual defect: a spec moved `v0.7 → v0.9`, changing a response contract, while the category built against `v0.7` sat marked **complete** — two revisions had landed silently. The symptom was not an error but an absence: a lookup key stopped matching and three overlays were dropped as `null`. **A category is complete against a spec version, never in the abstract.**
+- **The document is the record (new).** A conclusion a session holds but has not written into its role document and the runtime state file is not held by the company; reconcile before reporting, strike and correct in place, never delete, and check role documents against peer documents. `harness-worker-evidence-validate.sh` now catches the measured case mechanically — a worker whose report says `COMPLETE` while `progress.json` still lists it running. Cost of the unreconciled version: an orchestration loop that went on trying to spawn a finished step **70 times**.
+- **Instrument validity gains a statistics clause.** A summary statistic is published **with its `n`**, and a spiky series is characterised by **percentiles, never min–max** — a range is the two least representative points in the set and reads as a finding.
+- **Zero new numbered rules.** The proposal's own closing question was whether nine more entries on a nineteen-item list is P1's failure mode wearing the shape of a fix. §8 stays at 22: reachability folds into Rule 11 (which becomes *lazy loading is a promise about reachability*), spec pins into Rule 4 (*nothing is complete in the abstract*), and the record clause into Rule 12 (now *the document is the record*). The enforcement lives in scripts, not in more prose.
+- Gate ordering fixed while wiring this: the spec-pin check initially sat after the runtime transition, where a refusal would have refused nothing. All three completion gates now run **before** `progress.json` is touched, verified by asserting the runtime stays `running` on refusal.
+- The audit found two unreachable routings in this package's own bundled corpus on first run, and read its own syntax documentation as data until the declaration was anchored to line start. Both fixed; the bundled corpus now audits clean at install.
+- On P9, the trial **corrected** the earlier claim rather than confirming it: the same verbatim rule was obeyed by the second agent, so the honest figure is one of two — not "prose does not work" but "prose works at a rate you cannot predict per agent." Still the argument for a hook, since a gate has no compliance rate, but the earlier framing overstated it.
+
+## 7.1.56 — Close the lessons-gate bypass at the terminal transition (2026-09-01)
+- **Fix: the Hard Rule 20 gate could be bypassed by firing the completion transition.** Found by an A/B sandbox test of 7.1.54 vs 7.1.55 running identical fixtures. 7.1.55 put the gate in `harness-stop.sh` only, but `harness-company-complete.sh` sets `conductor.state=completed`, and `harness-stop.sh` short-circuits on that state at the top of the file — so a mission could complete having never recorded what it read, simply by running the transition. That is precisely the failure the gate was written to prevent. `harness-company-complete.sh` now runs `harness-lessons-gate.sh` itself and refuses the transition (non-zero exit, runtime left in `running`, refusal logged to `progress.log`) when the active mission's role documents lack `## Lessons Preflight` / `## Lessons Tally`.
+- Deadlock-safe by construction, verified against every legitimate stop path: the gate is scoped to the latest **active** mission, so the Stop-hook auto-complete backstop — which fires only when no mission is active — always passes; and `harness-company-block.sh` (external-authority BLOCKED) is deliberately **not** gated, since a mission blocked on a missing credential must still be able to stop.
+- Two escape hatches: `HARNESS_SKIP_LESSONS_GATE=1` for a single call, and `behavior.lessons_gate:false` for a project that has not adopted the sections.
+
 ## 7.1.55 — Read before plan: lessons-before-planning ordering + Stop-hook gate (2026-09-01)
 - **Hard Rule 20 — Lessons precede planning.** `AGENTS.md` now carries an *ordering* rule, not another content artifact: before any source edit, any measurement, and before any brief is issued, every CXX and every hired worker reads `.harness/conventions/{shared,role}.md` + `.harness/gotchas/{shared,role}.md`, follows only the topic links those files name, and writes `## Lessons Preflight` (which items apply and why). Every `ceo.md`, `{cxx}.md`, and worker report closes with a one-line `## Lessons Tally` immediately above `## Implementation Notes`; **`0 fired` is valid and must be stated, not omitted** — a tally that only ever reports hits trains agents to manufacture them. The rule also states the propagation clause: a requirement placed on a CXX that its workers must also satisfy is inserted **verbatim** into the worker brief, because *a rule stated one layer above the layer that executes it does not apply*. Origin: a 24h autonomous run in which the company kept re-learning lessons it had already written down — index compliance was already perfect (40 gotchas, 0 orphans, all linked), and the knowledge still arrived after the mistake. **Deliberately not shipped: the distilled 28-item preflight file** that run also produced — a derived corpus must be re-synced whenever any source file changes, went factually stale within an hour, and would be a second thing nobody reads before planning.
 - **Hard Rule 21 — every worker spawn declares its model.** Never inherit the CLI default. The model is recorded in the brief, the Worker Evidence Manifest, and `progress.json company_state.workers[]`. A worker terminated by a usage limit is indistinguishable, from the outside, from a worker that finished, so **a silent or truncated worker is a rate limit until proven otherwise**. `scripts/harness-worker-dispatch.sh` now resolves an explicit model (`company_mode.worker_model` → `flow.team.{gen,eval}_model` → `opus`), passes `--model` on every `claude -p` spawn form, and records it in the queue, the dispatch record, and `progress.log`.

 - CEO must not accept CQO PASS for a runnable product unless OPS has supplied clean verification-watch evidence or an explicit not-applicable reason. Open OPS incidents, missing runtime mapping, missing required logs, service down, or health mismatch block Owner acceptance.

 - Every worker spawn declares its model explicitly — never the inherited CLI default. CEO requires the model in each CXX's Worker Task Briefs and Worker Evidence Manifest. **A silent or truncated worker is a rate limit until proven otherwise**: before treating a stalled round as a CXX failure, CEO asks for the usage-limit status and reset time, because a rate-limited worker looks exactly like a finished one from the outside.
 - Every worker report file is created **before the worker starts**, already carrying its required sections (seeded from `.harness/shared/templates/worker-report.md`). A worker killed mid-round must leave a valid partial report, never a stub. CEO treats a stub report as a seeding failure by the owning CXX, not as a worker failure.

 ## Instrument Validity
 
 OPS supplies most of the harness's negative evidence — "no crash", "no error in the log", "health stayed green" — so OPS owns proving the instrument could have seen the failure.
 
 - Every claim of the form "nothing bad happened" ships with a **positive control that fired in the same run** and varied the exact variable under suspicion. Without one, report the observation as unverified, not clean.
 - **Read dependency-supplied filtering from source and quote it** — package, version, file, line range — instead of inferring it from what appeared in the log. Log middleware, dev servers, proxies, and test runners routinely drop successful or sub-threshold requests at a log level nobody chose deliberately, and that rule appears nowhere in the project's own code.
+- A summary statistic is published **with its `n`**, and a spiky series is characterised by **percentiles, never min–max** — a range is the two least representative points in the set, and reads as a finding.
 - Record the instrument in Environment Evidence: what tool observed the runtime, at what log level, with what filter, and what the control was. An unrecorded instrument makes every negative result from that run unusable.

Only one child mission under a goal may be active. Starting a newer submission/hot-fix closes, cancels, or supersedes the previous active child unless CEO records a deliberate TODO/resume plan.

Use unit tests, E2E, Playwright, test accounts, seeded data, build/run checks, logs, and CQO evidence before requesting Owner acceptance.

+Lazy loading tells a reader to consult `{shared, own-role}` and nothing else. That is a **promise about reachability**: where the promise is not kept, the rule stops narrowing the search and starts hiding the entry. An agent following the reading rule exactly will never see an item filed only under someone else's index.

 ## Audit Questions That Offer Alternatives
 
 An audit question that offers alternatives asserts that the alternatives are exhaustive. "Is it a skip rule **or** a status-conditional format?" cannot return "neither, it is upstream" — both branches locate the rule inside our own code, so the true answer is unreachable from the question's grammar. When an audit stalls, re-ask the question without the menu.

 ## Stub Report From A Worker Killed Mid-Round
 
 A report assembled at the end of a round becomes a stub when the round is cut short, and a stub halts the company. Create the worker report with every required section present **before** the worker starts, and require it to be filled in incrementally. Same failure, opposite outcome: an unseeded worker killed mid-round leaves a stub and costs a re-run; a seeded worker killed by the same limit leaves an intact partial report and costs nothing. The variable is a decision taken before the round.

+## Complete Against A Spec Version, Never In The Abstract
+<!-- roles: cto, cqo -->
+
+A category marked complete records *what it was complete against*. A spec moved `v0.7 → v0.9`, changing a response contract, while the category built against `v0.7` sat marked done — two later revisions landed silently and nothing in the harness recorded which version the work had been for.
+
+The symptom was not an error. A lookup key stopped matching, and three map overlays were dropped as `null`: no exception, no log, just an absence. Pin version **and content hash** with `scripts/harness-spec-pin.sh` before implementation, and re-verify before completion and archive.

+## The Author Files Under Itself
+<!-- roles: ceo, coo, cdo, cto, cqo, ops -->
+
+The recurring way an indexed entry becomes unreachable: whoever wrote it filed it under their own role index and nowhere else. Registration *feels* complete — the entry exists, it is indexed, it is linked. It is just not where its declared readers are told to look.
+
+Measured on a live corpus: 69 items, **10 unreachable role-routings, 7 of them invisible to a role the entry itself named**. The clearest case was an entry whose own text called two others "the same family" — both siblings were already reachable from the index it was missing from. An inconsistency, not a decision.

+Declare the audience at registration and let `scripts/harness-corpus-reachability.sh` link it. Reading is not reaching.

+
+A conclusion a session holds but has not written into its role document and the runtime state file is not held by the company. Reconcile before reporting; strike and correct in place, never delete.
+
+The cheap version: a deliverable table that contradicts three messages already sent, and a line still requesting work a peer has already delivered. The expensive version was measured — a required step completed, reported, and accepted, that never reached the state file, so the orchestration loop went on trying to spawn the finished step **70 times**. "Write your conclusions down" reads as tidiness until it reads as seventy.
