+## [2.4.1] — 2026-11-15
+
+Three fixes from an independent boundary audit. All three were verified by running the
+code, not by reading it.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **The CLI bypassed the hard-delete gate.** `scripts/cli.mjs` constructed the store
+  with `live: () => true`, so every gate that reads a live value evaluated to open:
+  with `allowHardDelete: false` the store refused `purge` and the command deleted
+  anyway, `--allow-hard-delete` was decorative, and a comment directly above the code
+  said the opposite. Measured before and after. `test/integration/cli-gate.test.mjs`
+  now runs the real command line, which is the surface that broke — the store-level
+  test passed throughout.
+
+- **The panel write route accepted a caller-supplied `status`.** `POST /api/loci/write`
+  forwarded `status` verbatim and defaulted it to `'verified'`, which also skipped the
+  instruction-like quarantine: instruction-shaped text sent through the panel landed as
+  `verified` instead of `disputed`. The field is gone; every write goes through the
+  store's derivation like the rest of the system.
+
+- **`SECURITY.md` claimed a self-test probe that did not exist.** The T2 row said "a
+  self-test probe keeps this honest" and the string `self-test` appeared nowhere else
+  in the repository. Rather than delete the sentence, `loci doctor` now runs the probe:
+  it renders hostile text (`{{…}}`, a closing fence, a script tag, bare angle brackets)
+  and fails if anything survives, and it checks that a known instruction shape is still
+  detected.
+
+### Note
+
+The audit also found that the acceptance numbers are from **v1.0.0** while the tree is
+2.4.x, and that the acceptance question contains the entry title verbatim — so the
+"98% recall" figure measures lookup, not memory effect. That is a measurement problem,
+not a bug, and it is not addressed in this patch; it needs a re-run, not an edit.

+### 2.1 拒绝条件注入：理由、适用范围、失效信号
+
+原文只写了一句"违反 I2 / 让记忆内容决定自己是否注入"。那句话**写宽了**，这里把边界说清。
+
+#### 真实的两条理由
+
+| # | 理由 | 性质 |
+|---|---|---|
+| R-a | 若每步都重算注入集合，系统提示段字节会变 → prefix/KV cache 失效，每次请求多付全量重算 | **经济性**（依赖当前 provider 的缓存实现） |
+| R-b | 若"该不该出现"由**已存正文**推断，则被污染的记忆可以把自己拉进提示词 —— 准入权交给了可被污染的数据 | **安全性**（结构性，与实现细节无关） |
+
+#### 适用范围：只对"系统提示段 + 每步求值"成立
+
+R-a 只在**每步求值、且注入点在系统提示段**时成立。会话内只求值一次的方案不违反 I2。
+R-b 只在**正文参与判定**时成立。由人工核实过的结构化字段（如 `whenCondition`）参与判定，并不破坏"verified-only"——它只是决定 *verified 里哪些更相关*。
 
+**我们其实已经有一处条件注入**：`recallAssist: 'session-start'`（`src/host/index.js:217-251`）——按首个用户消息检索、每会话一次、以 user message 形式注入、有 `recallAssistBytes` 上限、默认关闭。
+所以真正的规则不是"永不做条件注入"，而是下面五条。
+
+#### 可持久的规则（建议按此判定将来任何条件注入提案）
+
+1. **R1 正文永不触发**：存储的标题/正文不得参与"是否注入"的判定。条件只能来自结构化字段，且该字段本身经过核实。
+2. **R2 系统提示段在会话内字节稳定**：任何条件求值不得发生在会话中途。
+3. **R3 只允许在会话边界求值**，且输入必须是可复现快照（同一会话重放得到同一结果；不得由随机数或漂移的时间窗决定）。
+4. **R4 可解释**：每条被条件选中的条目，必须在面板或审计里回答"为什么这次出现"。
+5. **R5 可选且有界**：默认关闭、有字节上限、可随时关掉，关掉后行为与无此功能完全一致。
+
+#### 什么时候这条拒绝会自动失效（失效信号）
+
+- provider 改为**按段落分别缓存**，或不再对 system prefix 做缓存 → R-a 的经济理由消失（R-b 仍在）；
+- 条件改由**人工显式勾选**（不是模型推断）→ R-b 弱化为"人做的决定"，仅剩可解释性要求；
+- 我们真出现"条目数远超预算、且相关性差异巨大"的实测数据 → 静态索引的代价超过条件注入的代价。
+
+在此之前，维持"存条件、不判条件"。这不是永久真理，是当前四条不变量下的最优解。
