# Session 0082.0 — Transcript

> App: ohm
> Start: 2026-06-06T01-09 (PST)
> End: 2026-06-06T01-47 (PST)
> Type: coding
> Status: **FINALIZED.**
> Outcome: §22 S6 core shipped @ **v0.45.0** (PR #23, origin `main` `0140150`).

## Pre-state

- Branch `main` clean, synced to `origin/main` `b073738`, VERSION 0.44.0 (S5
  shipped). Three orphaned in-progress session placeholders (0079/0080/0081, all
  started within ~20 min, never finalized — likely crashed attempts at this same
  S6 work); noted and proceeded (autonomous default), claimed 0082.
- The §22 three-tier model (S1–S5) was shipped in code but **never merged into
  `SPEC.md`** — §22 did not exist in the binding spec; it lived only in
  `docs/design/2026-06-05-three-tier-projects-collections.md` (+ the older
  `multi-project-spec.md`).

## Launch prompt

`/goal next` — resume the stored next-goal recorded at session 0078's finalize:
**S6, the final §22 three-tier slice** (per-type frontmatter/surfaces keyed on
collection `type`, request-to-join + cross-collection inbox, per-collection
`enabled_models`, the registry + `.collection.yaml` format in `docs/DEPLOYMENTS.md`,
two-project/multi-collection e2e, the §20.4 changelog, and the **SPEC merge**
applying Part A + Part D and landing the S3 §B.1/§B.3 keystone reinterpretation).
Per `docs/design/2026-06-05-three-tier-projects-collections.md` Part E (S6).

## Plan

S6 is large — seven deliverables, three of them net-new features. Decomposed into
reviewable branch→PR→merge increments on `origin` (git.wiggleverse.org), ordered
keystone-first:

- **PR-A — SPEC merge (keystone).** Write a fresh §22 (Part A three-tier model)
  into `SPEC.md`; apply Part D amendments in place to §1/§2/§5/§6; land the S3
  §B.1/§B.3 keystone reinterpretation; document the `projects.yaml` +
  `.collection.yaml` format in `docs/DEPLOYMENTS.md`. Docs-only, no migration —
  fully realizes the three-tier model in the binding contract.
- **PR-B — per-collection `enabled_models`.** Migration 031 adds `collections.config_json`;
  parse from `.collection.yaml`; surface in the collection API; thread to the
  provider/model layer.
- **PR-C — per-type frontmatter + surfaces** keyed on the collection's `type`.
- **PR-D — request-to-join + cross-collection inbox.**
- **PR-E — two-project/multi-collection e2e + §20.4 changelog + version bump**
  (the release wrap for the whole §22 series).

## Progress (checkpoint)

Branch `feat/s6-three-tier-final` off `main` (`b073738`). Commits so far:

1. **`26f3680` — SPEC merge (keystone).** §22.1–§22.14 written into `SPEC.md`
   (three-tier model, registry + `.collection.yaml`, unified roles, four-layer
   union, the keystone §B.1/§B.3 reinterpretation); forward-pointer amendment
   notes at §1/§2/§5/§6; `docs/DEPLOYMENTS.md` registry + manifest format.
2. **`79a27a9` — per-collection `enabled_models` (§22.12).** Migration 031
   (`collections.config_json`); manifest parse; `models_resolver`
   project→collection narrowing chain; API surfacing. 9 vertical tests.
3. **`839404d` — type-driven entry noun (§22.4a).** `collections.entry_noun`
   source-of-truth map; surfaced on collection/directory/project APIs; Catalog +
   ProposeModal chrome read it. 3 vertical tests.

Gate after each: backend **528 passed**, frontend **30 passed** + build green.

Remaining this session: a two-project/multi-collection integrative test, the
§20.4 changelog + upgrade-steps, and the **v0.45.0** version bump (the release
wrap). Then PR → merge on `origin`. Handoff (next goal): the OPEN type-module
surfaces (per-type frontmatter schemas, specification release-planning, bdd
scenario/coverage) and request-to-join + cross-collection inbox — both want a
spec pass first.

## Deferred decisions

- **S6 structure: single branch, single v0.45.0 release (autonomous call).** The
  recorded goal bundles S6 as one slice spanning a major SPEC merge + three
  net-new features + release. The repo's established pattern is one release per
  slice (S1–S5 = 0.40.0–0.44.0), and the original plan said S6 "ships as one
  minor at M7." So all of S6 lands on one branch `feat/s6-three-tier-final` with
  structured per-deliverable commits and a single v0.45.0 release (VERSION +
  CHANGELOG + §20.4 upgrade-steps in the final commit) — not 5 micro-releases or
  5 coordinated PRs. The SPEC references v0.45.0 throughout accordingly.
- **In-place §22.14 amendments vs. scattered notes (autonomous call).** Part D's
  amendments are applied as a consolidated §22.14 subsection PLUS concise
  forward-pointer blockquotes at §1/§2/§5/§6 (house style, cf. §1's v0.31.0
  note) — rather than rewriting each section's body wholesale, which would be
  far more invasive and risk breaking load-bearing cross-references mid-document.
- **The three feature areas (enabled_models / type surfaces / request-to-join)
  have no pre-written BDD scenarios** (Part C covers only role/invitation/empty-
  state) and E.2 deferred "request-to-join nuances" + "per-type role labels" from
  the first pass — so their detailed shape is designed this session against the
  design doc's direction.
- **Mid-session scope re-cut (autonomous call, after keystone + enabled_models
  shipped).** S6's remaining items split by specification maturity. PR-B
  (enabled_models) is fully specified by §22.12 → shipped. PR-C's *entry-noun
  terminology* (§22.4a item 2: document→"RFC" / specification→"Spec" /
  bdd→"Feature") is concrete and completable → doing it. But the FULL type-module
  surfaces (§22.4a items 1+3: per-type frontmatter schemas, the `specification`
  release-planning data model, the `bdd` scenario/coverage views) are flagged
  OPEN in the design doc itself ("first proposals, to be pinned in the
  type-surface slice"), and request-to-join + cross-collection inbox (PR-D) is a
  whole subsystem E.2 deferred. Building those FULLY in one autonomous code
  session, without their BDD specs, would be guessing at product shape — lower
  quality than the team's discovery→spec→code flow. **Decision:** deliver the
  well-specified, completable scope to a high bar (keystone SPEC merge ✅,
  enabled_models ✅, entry-noun terminology), RELEASE it as v0.45.0 (the defining
  S6 outcome — "§22 three-tier fully realized in SPEC.md"), and record a precise
  next-goal for the genuinely-open type-module + membership-lifecycle work, which
  wants a spec pass first. Honors "carry to done" for the completable scope
  without rushing under-specified features.

_Autonomous-mode low-confidence calls the driver made and would have
liked operator input on. Appended as the session runs; surfaced at
finalize._

## Arc

1. **Resume + orient.** `/goal next` → read memory's `Next /goal:` (S6). Read the
   design doc Parts A/B/C/D/E and the older `multi-project-spec.md` §22 to
   assemble the full merge surface; dispatched an Explore agent to map the code
   surfaces for the three feature areas (enabled_models, type, notifications/inbox,
   tests).
2. **PR-A — SPEC merge (keystone).** Authored §22.1–§22.14 into `SPEC.md` from the
   two design docs, landing the S3 keystone reinterpretation; added §1/§2/§5/§6
   forward-pointer blockquotes; documented the registry + `.collection.yaml`
   formats in `docs/DEPLOYMENTS.md`. Docs-only. Commit `26f3680`.
3. **PR-B — per-collection enabled_models (§22.12).** TDD: wrote the vertical test
   first (9 cases incl. the narrowing chain, opt-out, cannot-widen), watched it
   fail, implemented migration 031 + manifest parse + `models_resolver`
   `_scope_narrowed_universe` + API surfacing. Backend 525→ green. Commit `79a27a9`.
4. **PR-C — type-driven entry noun (§22.4a).** Found the noun hardcoded "RFC" in
   the frontend (App.jsx comment acknowledged it should be type-driven). Added
   `collections.ENTRY_NOUN` (backend source of truth), surfaced `entry_noun` on the
   collection/directory/project APIs, threaded it into Catalog + ProposeModal. 3
   backend vertical tests + frontend wiring. Commit `839404d`.
5. **PR-E — release.** Integrative two-project/multi-collection test, §20.4
   CHANGELOG 0.45.0 + upgrade-steps, VERSION+package.json→0.45.0. Commit `b392fa9`.
6. **Ship.** Pushed `feat/s6-three-tier-final` to `origin`; opened PR #23 via the
   Gitea API; merged (`0140150`); FF-synced local main; deleted the branch.

Gate throughout: backend ended **530 passed**, frontend **30 passed** + build green.

## Cut state

- `origin/main` = `0140150`, VERSION **0.45.0**. The §22 three-tier model is now
  realized in the binding `SPEC.md`.
- **Deferred (next goal):** the S6 remainder — request-to-join + cross-collection
  inbox (§22.8, the more-specified half, buildable by analogy to the shipped §28
  `contribution_requests` + S4 `memberships.grant`), then the per-type *surfaces*
  (§22.4a items 1&3, which the design doc flags OPEN — want a discovery/spec pass).
- **Known limitation (logged):** `resolve_models_for_rfc` is slug-keyed, so
  same-slug-across-collections model resolution is ambiguous — a pre-existing
  per-RFC-layer issue surfaced by multi-collection; belongs with the broader
  collection-id-threading work.
- **Housekeeping not done:** the orphaned 0079/0080/0081 placeholders were left
  as-is (not adopted/finalized) — a future session may want to close them out as
  abandoned.

## Next-session prompt

```
/goal Finish the §22 S6 remainder. Start with request-to-join + the cross-collection inbox (§22.8) — buildable by analogy to the shipped §28 contribution_requests + S4 memberships.grant: a user requests Owner/RFC-Contributor at a project/collection scope → a join_requests row (pending/accepted/declined) + a §15 fan-out to the scope's Owners across the subtree; accept writes the membership grant. Then the per-type surfaces (§22.4a items 1&3) — these want a discovery/spec pass first (design doc flags them OPEN). Per SPEC §22.4a/§22.8 and docs/design/2026-06-05-three-tier-projects-collections.md Part E.
