docs(harness): decay cadence + verification-trail schema (#9) - #12

Conversation
…ema (#9) Closes the two remaining LoopEngineering-adoption items. - #9 — docs/harness-decay-cadence.md: names the human-run build-to-delete review cadence (record each component's model-limitation assumption; disable-and-measure on model upgrades; delete via a decommission witness), tied to the existing harness-audit / inventory / decommission / .scratch decay-sweep tooling. Hard guard: never auto-delete maker-not-equal-checker; both the measure and the delete decision stay human-gated (no auto-prune). - docs/agents/verification-trail.md: documents the .scratch/<feature>/ verification-trail.md schema that hooks/verification-gate.sh referenced but that never existed. Derived from the parsing code + test fixtures; resolves the dangling schema reference flagged during the #2-#10 work. Both docs were fact-checked by a fresh-context adversarial pass against their source. Corrections applied: red_green / pr_test_analyzer marked informational (no consumer parses them — only verification_tier + optout_reason are); workspace-surface-audit recharacterized as the inverse capability lens, not a decay detector; BOUNDARY.md overclaim softened. Green bar: harness-audit 0C/0W, plugin validate --strict exit 0, hook tests 131/0, git grep HARNESS = zero. Closes #9

An adversarial multi-dimension audit of the merged epic (PR #11/#12) found 10 documentation-accuracy / consistency defects — no behavior bugs, no blockers. All 10 fixed and fresh-context re-verified ALL-CLEAN. - CHANGELOG.md: add the missing [Unreleased] entry for the epic (the repo logs even doc-only changes for archaeology). - docs/agents/verification-trail.md: scope the "two fields are parsed" claim to verification-gate.sh — verification-tier-audit.py reads only verification_tier, recursive-improve-observe.py reads the journal, not the trail. - CONTEXT.md: rebind the autonomy invariant's "or multi-iteration" so it no longer literally bans recursive-improve's own gated, capped multi-iteration loop. - commands/feature-dev.md: de-pin the stale "/fix-bug.md:103-119" citation (shifted by the #3 insertion) to "/fix-bug.md Phase 5". - scripts/verification-tier-audit.py: docstring no longer implies red_green is a parsed field (it is human-readable evidence; only verification_tier is read). - docs/harness-decay-cadence.md: owner-only caveat on workspace-surface-audit (it lives in ~/.claude, not bundled — skip on external install); bash-prefix + optional-arg brackets on the audit.sh invocation. - docs/agents/verification-trail.md: "the session's trails" -> "every trail in .scratch at session end (not session-tagged)". - skills/recursive-improve/SKILL.md: drop a duplicated "autonomy invariant" phrase from the repoint. - hooks/block-bash-doctrine-write.sh: clean the trailing-semicolon comment residue left after the HARNESS.md removal. Green bar: harness-audit 0C/0W, plugin validate --strict exit 0, hook tests 131/0, py_compile + bash -n pass.

docs/harness-decay-cadence.md— names the human-run build-to-delete review cadence, tied to existing harness-audit / inventory / decommission / .scratch decay-sweep tooling. Hard guard: never auto-delete maker≠checker; both measure and delete stay human-gated (no auto-prune).docs/agents/verification-trail.md— documents the.scratch/<feature>/verification-trail.mdschema thatverification-gate.shreferenced but that never existed (derived from the parsing code + test fixtures). Resolves the dangling schema ref flagged during recursive-improve: candidate executor escalates on repeated failure (Rule 13, no counter) #2–autonomy invariant: judgment-preservation rationale sentence #10.Both fact-checked by a fresh-context adversarial pass; corrected red_green/pr_test_analyzer (informational, not parsed), the workspace-surface-audit characterization, and a BOUNDARY.md overclaim.
