 ## Step 3: Sync `_index.md` Current BR Snapshot to BC Layer
 
-This step **reuses the existing sync mechanism** from `new-feature-flow`
+**First, branch on what this host actually carries** — "zero-phase" (no
+phase-spec) is independent of whether a bounded context exists, so a minimal
+host may still touch a real BC, or none at all:
+
+- **(i) BC-bearing** — the host touched a real bounded context, **whether or
+  not it carries a BR delta** (BC presence and BR presence are independent). Run
+  the sync below **for the documents this host actually changed**: a BR delta
+  updates `rules.md` / `behavior.md`; a no-BR family that touched, say, an event
+  field updates `events.md`. Fill the Integration Summary's BC field with the
+  context, and its BR-IDs with whatever applies — a real set, the per-family
+  no-BR marker, or empty. Do **not** skip, and do **not** manufacture a BR delta
+  a no-BR host does not have.
+  **`Aggregates affected:` and `Domain Events Changes:` take what this host
+  actually changed — and `none` for those it did not.** ⚠ **Every BC-bearing
+  host, not only a zero-phase one.** An unchanged field is reported `none`, never
+  left blank: a blank cannot be told apart from a field nobody filled in, and the
+  reader of this summary has no other source for the difference. The same shape
+  for a zero-phase host, and the authority on that host's *whole* field set, is
+  `references/finish-feature-minimal-host.md` § Step 5. This sentence is the
+  half that was only ever written there.
+- **(ii) no-BC** — the host touched **no** bounded context at all (a display
+  T3, an appearance sweep). **Skip this sync entirely** — do **not** create
+  `rules.md` / `behavior.md` / `events.md`, and do not invent a BC to sync into.
+  Its Integration Summary sets the fields that **report a sync** to `none` —
+  `BC`, `Aggregates affected`, `Domain Events Changes`. **`Related BR-IDs` is
+  not one of those**: it reports what this change's own record carries, so it
+  stays empty or keeps the per-family no-BR marker. Step 5's "exact fields"
+  block is the authority on the shape; do not flatten it to "all BR fields are
+  none" here.
+
+For a **BC-bearing** host, continue with the sync. This step **reuses the
+existing sync mechanism** from `new-feature-flow`
 Step 8.3 / `modify-existing-flow` Step 5.3 (`dflow/specs/domain/{context}/rules.md`
 + `behavior.md` + `events.md` + `context-map.md` updates). The input is
 the feature's `_index.md` Current BR Snapshot table; the output is the
 BC's `rules.md` / `behavior.md` updated to reflect the feature's net
 effect.
 
-Before syncing, ensure required BC files exist. If missing, create from templates:
+**Minimal host — sync input.** A minimal host reads "phase-spec" differently
+here, and a phase-bearing host must not apply that reading. The rule is
+`references/finish-feature-minimal-host.md` § Step 3.
+
+**Every host — lightweight-spec deltas are a sync input too.** A host of **any**
+shape may carry hosted Lightweight Changes rows: Step 1's two `Tier = T2` checks
+carry no host-shape restriction, so they reach a phase-bearing host as well. So
+a phase-bearing host can hold a hosted T2 whose delta belongs in
+this sync, and **the steps below name phase-specs only**. Read them as *this
+feature's phase-specs **and** its hosted lightweight-specs' recorded deltas*.
+⚠ **Where this bites hardest is a no-BR family**, because the BR-driven sections
+below cannot reach it at all: with no BR-ID there is no Current BR Snapshot row
+to iterate, so a hosted T2 that changed only an event field or a documented
+behaviour is visible **solely** in its own recorded delta. Miss it and
+`events.md` / `behavior.md` silently lose a change that a phase-bearing closeout
+had no other instruction to look for.
+
+Before syncing, ensure the BC files **this sync actually writes** exist; create a
+missing one from its template **only when this host's delta writes to it**. Case
+(i) above syncs "the documents this host actually changed", so a document this
+host does not touch is **not** created — a BC-bearing **T3**, or a no-BR family
+that touched only one of them, leaves the others absent, exactly as case (ii)
+does for a no-BC host. Creating one anyway plants the same fiction the no-BC
+guard refuses:
 - `dflow/specs/domain/{context}/rules.md` → `templates/rules.md`

+   § 8.3 and Step 5.3 enumerate the same external paths, and `/dflow:new-phase`
+   has no sweep at all, so every branch yields that same set or a part of it.
+   ⚠ **`/dflow:new-phase` has no sweep and is deliberately absent here.**

+      a difference and is judged like any other: it **blocks** unless a step of

+      only when the baseline became unreadable *during* closeout.
+      Step 1 blocks unless every
+      spec in the host already reads `status: completed`, so those flips are

+      compares against. (They are differences only from the *pre-flip* record,
+      which is not the baseline.)

+      **no check reads the value at all**.

+      the rest of its evidence and leave the cell to that checklist.
+      **Scope, stated so it is not read as more than it is:** this gate re-reads

+      strands the original feature's reverse link at `in-progress` while
+      closeout reports success; a Lightweight Changes row, or its `Commit` cell,
+      deleted — archiving an effectively empty host.

+      Step 1 validated — **plus exactly the external paths Step 4 instruction 2
+      ordered staged**. That is the same derivation the item above uses, applied
+      to the other half of "closeout is clean": the permitted set comes from the
+      instruction that ordered the staging, never from a copy kept here.
+      **Anything else blocks**: implementation source, or a
+      `domain/{context}/…` document under a host that declared itself no-BC.
+      ⚠ **That no-BC half applies to every host shape, and on a phase-bearing

+      **Scope: this is a path-level spill check and nothing more.** It proves no

+      only this host's delta. Judging a hunk inside `rules.md` as "this host's
+      change rather than an unrelated BR edit" needs the intended delta, which
+      lives in the spec and the row, not in a path list. The item that reads one

 ## Step 6: Reverse-Update Follow-up Tracking (only if follow-up)
 
-For features that were created as follow-ups of an earlier completed
-feature, update the original feature's
-Follow-up Tracking table.
-
-1. Locate `dflow/specs/features/completed/{原 SPEC-ID}-{原 slug}/_index.md`
-2. Find the Follow-up Tracking section's row for this feature's SPEC-ID
-3. Flip Status → `completed`
-
-```bash
-# The AI makes the edit and may offer to commit it (Y / N), per the AI commit policy
-```
-
-After the update:
-> "Follow-up Tracking row in `{原 SPEC-ID}-{原 slug}/_index.md` updated
-> to Status = `completed`. Closeout complete."
-
-The connection is bidirectional and weakly redundant: the new feature's
-`follow-up-of` field is the authoritative source; the old feature's
-Follow-up Tracking row is a derived index. If they ever disagree, trust
-`follow-up-of`.
