Every claim in every commit message, and in the documentation the range
adds or changes, proven or gone. The lens's block kinds are text, doc and
slot: a message unit is keyed on its text, the base and the code up to its
commit (MessageDeps); a documentation unit on its file, its normalised
text, the base and the code of the whole range (DocKeyParts); a diffstat on
its text alone; whole:order and whole:absent are asked in slot passes of
its own, never stored. A documentation file's diff header and a part the
commit writes nothing in are a mechanical n/a. Budgets 60/40 for a text or
doc block, 50/35 for a slot; one read. Gate 4, after the proofs, so the
messages and documents are read once the code they describe has settled;
the owner's gate is 5.
The goldens that follow from the lens table are derived by
tests/Goldens/derive.py, which asserts that the recorded table still
reproduces the recorded entries before it writes.
Proven, with the opt-in commit after this one: the suite (26 passed); a dry
run of a scratch range (2 commits, a README with sections) by the previous
binary and this one with the three static lenses on and the rest off, 25
prompts and 4 system files byte for byte; with repo-facts on as well,
those files unchanged and 10 passes and 1 system file added.
The lens's firing proof in this pipeline is owed (the owner's go).
An independent check of every behaviour AGENTS.md was to describe:
- `--units ,` and `--only ,` skipped their empty items and so had no
filter left: a typo started a run of every unit. They are usage errors
now (exit 3).
- Two fixes the plan lists were missing: a dry run now clears the prompts
a dry run before it left in the dir they share (the report counted
them), and `config` reports an absolute functional.mcp.command that is
no program here - /usr/bin/npx inside the Flatpak, whose /usr is the
Sdk's.
- A patch that is not UTF-8 stops `run` at preflight (exit 3), as the
plan has it; it exited 1.
- An exception no command caught aborted the process (134), e.g. a home
that holds no lenses: it ends with its message and exit 1. An error
escaping `run` or `freeze` now also clears the signal handler's run and
sweeps what is left below the subreaper.
- `config -h` printed "unrecognized arguments" (exit 3): it prints the
usage, exit 0.
- An API seat's .claude.json is linked into place, so a second writer
never replaces the first's file and what claude wrote to it since.

Stream, Normalize, Merge, Dispositions, Config, CodeKeys and the pure half
of CommitsMode, each a test of its own (131 checks). The fixture rewrites
are checked in (code-keys/<name>/, commits3/), so the suite reads fixtures
and edits nothing. The allowlist, command-line and MCP checks of
CommitsMode come with the pool they test.
Among them: this binary's `<exe> sql` spelling counts as a SQL call, and a
result line with a raw U+2028 in a JSON string is still the result line.
