+ *
+ * A topic's operator is the principal whose decisions the agent enacts. This
+ * store is DELIBERATELY DECOUPLED from the topic→project binding (ScopeVerifier
+ * `TopicProjectBinding`): a topic can have an operator without a project binding
+ * (and `TopicProjectBinding` requires projectName/projectDir, so embedding the

+ * identity is its own concern.
+ *
+ * SAFETY — the operator is established ONLY from `PrincipalGuard.establishOperator`
+ * (the authenticated sender uid). There is no path that accepts a name from
+ * content as the operator — the "Caroline" identity-bleed failure mode is
+ * impossible by construction.
+ *
+ * Persistence: `state/topic-operators.json` (per-machine, like the other
+ * file-backed stores). Pure aside from that one JSON file; unit-testable with a

+<!-- bump: patch -->
+
+## What Changed
+
+Added `src/users/TopicOperatorStore.ts` — the durable, decoupled store for a
+topic's VERIFIED operator (Know Your Principal standard, security-build
+increment 2). It records the operator only from the platform-authenticated
+sender (never a content name), keeps it separate from the topic→project binding,
+and exposes the `<topic-operator>` session-start injection block. No runtime
+consumers yet (routes + session-start wiring are later increments).
+
+## What to Tell Your User
+
+Nothing user-facing changes. Foundation code (experimental) for the Caroline
+identity-bleed security fix — it does not alter any current behavior.
+
+## Summary of New Capabilities
+
+- `TopicOperatorStore` (experimental, no runtime consumers yet): setOperator /
+  getOperator / asVerifiedOperator / sessionContextBlock, backed by
+  `state/topic-operators.json`.
+
+## Evidence
+
+Net-new capability. Verified by 10 unit tests (both sides of every boundary +
+durable persistence + the content-name-can't-become-operator invariant) and a
+clean `tsc --noEmit`.

+# Side-effects review — TopicOperatorStore (Know Your Principal, increment 2)
+
+## What this change is
+A new `src/users/TopicOperatorStore.ts` — a JSON-backed (`state/topic-operators.json`)
+store for the verified per-topic operator, plus its unit test. Decoupled from
+the ScopeVerifier topic→project binding by design (a topic can have an operator
+without a project binding; TopicProjectBinding requires projectName/projectDir).
+
+## Blast radius
+- **Runtime impact: none.** Nothing constructs or imports TopicOperatorStore at
+  boot or in any route/job/sentinel yet — adding it cannot change live behavior.
+  The routes + session-start injection that consume it are later increments.
+- Imports only `PrincipalGuard.establishOperator` (pure, already shipped in #902).
+- New state file `state/topic-operators.json` is created lazily on first write;
+  read fails safe to empty on missing/corrupt (a missing operator → the guard
+  treats everything as unverifiable, which is the safe direction).
+
+## Security review
+- Operator establishment is uid-only by construction (delegates to
+  establishOperator) — no path accepts a name from content as the operator
+  (the Caroline failure mode is impossible).
+- No network, no secrets, no new auth; one local JSON file.
+
+## Framework generality
+Pure logic + one local JSON file — no session-launch/inject/message-delivery
+surface; framework-agnostic.
+
+## Test coverage
+10 unit tests (`tests/unit/topic-operator-store.test.ts`) covering both sides of
+every boundary: valid-uid establish + read-back, blank-uid refusal, content-name-
+never-becomes-operator, unbound→null, persistence across instances, replace,
+asVerifiedOperator (feeds the guard), and sessionContextBlock (bound/unbound/uid-
+fallback). tsc clean; docs-coverage class floor restored (TopicOperatorStore
+documented in the Know Your Principal concept doc).
+
+## Rollback
+Delete the module + test + the doc mention; zero runtime consequence (no consumers).
