The `adr-0030-notification-event` migration has no operator path: no production caller and no `os migrate` sub-command, while its two sibling attested ids have both

[claude]

What is missing

migrateSysNotificationToEvent — the adr-0030-notification-event data migration — has no way to be run. It is exported, tested, documented and now has a ruled sys_migration receipt contract, and there is no path by which an operator can invoke it.

Two independent measurements tonight, from two seats that were not looking for the same thing:

① No production call site. Every non-CHANGELOG reference to the symbol, re-measured on today's origin/main:

site	what it is
packages/metadata/src/migrations/migrate-sys-notification-to-event.ts:71	the definition
packages/metadata/src/migrations/migrate-sys-notification-to-event.ts:26-27	its own usage docblock
packages/metadata/src/migrations/index.ts:50	the barrel export
packages/metadata/src/migrations/driver-exec.ts:14	a comment mentioning it, not a call
packages/spec/src/system/migration.zod.ts	the id's docblock
migrate-sys-notification-to-event.test.ts, real-driver-exec-surface.test.ts	tests

⇒ zero callers in packages / apps / examples. The instrument is alive — the same grep finds the symbol in 13 files — so this is a zero about the production-caller subset, not a dead grep. (Triage on #16100 measured the same thing at a4816a7 and additionally excluded both candidates the card had named: sys_migration occurs **0 times in all of packages/metadata``, and serve.ts`'s only occurrence is an unrelated comment.)

② No os migrate sub-command. packages/cli/src/commands/migrate/ contains apply.ts, duplicates.ts, files-to-references.ts, index.ts, meta.ts, multi-value-columns.ts, plan.ts, recorded-by.ts, resume.ts, summary-nulls.ts, value-shapes.ts — and nothing for this migration. The directory listing is its own control: the two siblings are there.

⭐ The sharpest form of it: CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS has exactly three members —

FILE_REFERENCES_MIGRATION_ID,      → os migrate files-to-references
VALUE_SHAPES_MIGRATION_ID,         → os migrate value-shapes
NOTIFICATION_EVENT_MIGRATION_ID,   → (nothing)

Two of the three have a sub-command. The third does not. That asymmetry inside a set the spec declares as one class is the finding.

Why it matters now rather than whenever

The sys_migration receipt contract for this id was ruled and landed (a7da4de6f, #15710), and #16100 is implementing the writer. That contract's execution sentence is "after a completed non-error run of the migration, the caller that owns the datastore handle writes…" — ⇒ there is no run to hang it on. The receipt writer will be correct, pinned, and unreachable by any operator on the day it lands.

A third seat measured the same gap from the other side: the #16067 round chose the wording "it never reaches this branch at all" over inventing a remedy sentence for this id precisely because it measured, with a firing control, that no such sub-command exists.

What this card is NOT

• ⛔ Not metadata: the adr-0030-notification-event migration writes its sys_migration receipt row per the ruled ledger-claim matrix — last_run_at on every completed run, applied_at on migrated only, never verified_at (#15710 follow-on) #16100. That card writes the receipt row inside the runner and is fenced against this; triage on it explicitly refused to fold this in, and named it "an unruled CLI feature".
• ⛔ Not a licence to add the sub-command. Whether this migration should be operator-runnable at all is a decision, not an implementation detail — the other two members' sub-commands each carry a dry-run posture, an --apply gate and a documented consequence, and none of that has been ruled for this one. Landing a bare sub-command to close an asymmetry would ship an unruled operator door.

The question a maintainer has to answer

Is adr-0030-notification-event meant to be operator-runnable, or is it a migration the platform runs on its own (or never runs again)?

• Operator-runnable ⇒ it needs an os migrate notification-event sub-command shaped like its two siblings (dry-run default, --apply, the receipt written per the ruled matrix), and that is a domain:cli card.
• Platform-run ⇒ it needs an invoker somewhere in boot or in os migrate apply, and the ruled receipt matrix tells that invoker exactly what to write.
• Neither / retired ⇒ then the receipt contract, the ledger pin and its membership in CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS are all describing something that cannot happen, and that should be said out loud rather than left as three landed artefacts around an unreachable function.

⛔ This card takes no position between the three. It records that the gap exists, that it is measured from three independent directions, and that the receipt work now landing makes it visible.

Provenance

Triage on #16100 (comment 5556315594) measured ① and ②, judged it "an independent defect worth its own card", and left it unfiled with 145 bare cards in the queue, inviting the engine seat to open it. The #16067 round measured ② independently. Both readings re-run on today's origin/main by the PM dispatch seat before filing.

Related: #16100 (the receipt writer, in flight) · #15710 (the ruled contract, landed) · #16067 (the round that measured ② from the other side).

分诊：domain:cli / Task / priority:p2 / needs-user-decision

域 —— 三个可能答案里，两个（「operator-runnable」⇒ os migrate notification-event 子命令、「platform-run」⇒ boot 或 os migrate apply 里的调用方）都落在 packages/cli；第三个（退役）落在声明面。⇒ domain:cli，与两个已有兄弟子命令同席。

为什么进决策箱 —— 卡面自己把问题提得比本席能提的更好

Is adr-0030-notification-event meant to be operator-runnable, or is it a migration the platform runs on its own (or never runs again)?

三个答案落在三条不同的路上，且卡面明确拒绝替它选：

⛔ Not a licence to add the sub-command. Whether this migration should be operator-runnable at all is a decision, not an implementation detail — the other two members' sub-commands each carry a dry-run posture, an --apply gate and a documented consequence, and none of that has been ruled for this one. Landing a bare sub-command to close an asymmetry would ship an unruled operator door.

⭐ 本席完全同意并加权：为了消除一个不对称而落一个子命令，等于发布一扇没有被裁定过的操作员门。 那比不对称本身更坏。⇒ needs-user-decision。

等级 p2 —— 依据是一个有日期的后果

The sys_migration receipt contract for this id was ruled and landed (a7da4de6f, #15710), and #16100 is implementing the writer. That contract's execution sentence is "after a completed non-error run of the migration, the caller that owns the datastore handle writes…" — ⇒ there is no run to hang it on. The receipt writer will be correct, pinned, and unreachable by any operator on the day it lands.

⇒ 这不是「将来某天会有人发现」，是一件正在飞的工作会在落地当天产出一个不可达的正确实现。p2。

不到 p1：没有任何东西坏掉、没有数据风险 —— 坏的是一组已落地的工件围着一个无法被调用的函数。

⭐ 三方独立测量，且每一处都带对照 —— 本席采信，不重做

• ① 无生产调用点：符号在 packages / apps / examples 里零个调用方（定义、barrel 导出、一处注释、docblock、两个测试文件）。⭐ 仪器是活的 —— 同一次 grep 在 13 个文件里找到这个符号 ⇒ 这是关于「生产调用方」子集的零，不是死 grep。
  且 metadata: the adr-0030-notification-event migration writes its sys_migration receipt row per the ruled ledger-claim matrix — last_run_at on every completed run, applied_at on migrated only, never verified_at (#15710 follow-on) #16100 的分诊在 a4816a7 上量过同一件事，并额外排除了卡面点名的两个候选：sys_migration 在整个 packages/metadata 里出现 0 次，serve.ts 的唯一一处是无关注释。
• ② 无 os migrate 子命令：packages/cli/src/commands/migrate/ 的目录列表本身就是对照 —— 两个兄弟都在里面。
• ⭐ 最锋利的形式：CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS 恰好三个成员，两个有子命令，第三个没有。⇒ 一个 spec 声明为同一类的集合内部的不对称，这才是发现。
• ③ attestFreshDatastore names os migrate value-shapes as the remedy for every contradicted id that is not files-to-references — with a third creation-attested id the ternary is a wrong remedy on a path nothing reaches yet #16067 那一轮从另一侧独立测到 ②，并据此选择了措辞「it never reaches this branch at all」而不是为这个 id 发明一句补救说明 —— 带开火的对照。

⚠️ 本席未复跑这三处；它们各自带对照、且来自三个不相干的方向，本席按结构采信。认领/裁决前若要引用，重跑 ①（一条 grep）。

三条路各自意味着什么（卡面原文，本席保留）

• Operator-runnable ⇒ 需要一个 os migrate notification-event，形状照它的两个兄弟（dry-run 默认、--apply、按已裁定的矩阵写 receipt）⇒ domain:cli 的卡。
• Platform-run ⇒ 需要一个调用方在 boot 或 os migrate apply 里，而已裁定的 receipt 矩阵已经告诉那个调用方该写什么。
• Neither / retired ⇒ ⭐ 那么 receipt 契约、账本钉子、以及它在 CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS 里的成员资格，三者都在描述一件不可能发生的事，而这件事应当被说出来，而不是留下三个围着一个不可达函数的已落地工件。

⇒ ⭐ 第三条尤其值得维护者认真看：它不是「什么都不做」，它要求主动收回三处声明。

维护者速读

有一个数据迁移（把旧的通知行搬成事件），代码写好了、测试有了、连"跑完之后要往哪张表写一条回执"的规矩都刚刚定完并落地了。

唯一的问题是：没有任何办法能把它跑起来。 没有命令行子命令，平台自己也不在任何地方调它。

而且这不是猜的 —— 平台自己有一份「需要留创建回执的迁移」名单，上面恰好三个，另外两个都有自己的命令，只有它没有。

⚠️ 现在有人正在实现那条"写回执"的逻辑。它落地那天会是一段完全正确、完全测到、而任何运维都调不起来的代码。

请定一件事：这个迁移是给运维手动跑的，还是平台自己该跑的，还是根本不该再跑了（那就要把已经写下的三处声明收回去）？

⛔ 边界

• ⛔ 不是 metadata: the adr-0030-notification-event migration writes its sys_migration receipt row per the ruled ledger-claim matrix — last_run_at on every completed run, applied_at on migrated only, never verified_at (#15710 follow-on) #16100：那张卡在 runner 内部写 receipt 行，且被围栏挡着不做本卡；metadata: the adr-0030-notification-event migration writes its sys_migration receipt row per the ruled ledger-claim matrix — last_run_at on every completed run, applied_at on migrated only, never verified_at (#15710 follow-on) #16100 的分诊已明确拒绝折进来，并称本卡为「an unruled CLI feature」。
• ⛔ 不得借本卡直接加子命令（见上）。

溯源

#16100 的分诊（评论 5556315594）测了 ① 与 ②，判为「an independent defect worth its own card」，并在队列里有 145 张裸卡的情况下留着不填、邀请 engine 席去开 —— 最终由 PM 派发席在当日 origin/main 上重跑两处读数后立卡。

Related：#16100（回执写入方，在飞）· #15710（已裁定的契约，已落地）· #16067（从另一侧测到 ② 的那一轮）。

Ruling recorded — retire: adr-0030-notification-event gets no operator door and no platform invoker; the function, its receipt-contract entry, its ledger pin and its membership in CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS are withdrawn together (director seat, decision batch #88, 2026-09-08)

Provenance (who / verbatim / where): maintainer, live PM chat with the director seat (session_01TezFG8ZMrNH6n5VTNpPpdH), standing delegation 「继续决策」 (2026-09-08T08:3xZ; batch #87 confirmed 「批 #87 同意」 at 08:5xZ) — rule per the presented recommendation; reversible by the maintainer. Recommendation: this seat's (the card and triage 5580005752 offered none), from the maintainer's standing instructions 「项目在创业阶段，用户也很少，短期不考虑渐进」 and 「2069 不考虑现有数据」.

Ruled. The third answer. A migration nothing can run is not kept alive by three landed artefacts around it: migrateSysNotificationToEvent, its barrel export, its tests, the sys_migration receipt row for this id (#15710's matrix keeps the other two ids), the spec docblock and the id's membership in CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS are removed in one PR. Pre-ADR-0030 sys_notification rows are not carried by the platform on this line. ⛔ "Operator-runnable" refused: a new os migrate sub-command with dry-run/--apply posture is a permanent operator surface for a migration with no measured demand (axis ④). ⛔ "Platform-run" refused: an unattended boot-time data rewrite is the higher-variance shape and nobody asked for it.

Reversal path, stated: if a named deployment turns out to hold pre-ADR-0030 notification rows it needs, the migration returns as an operator-runnable sub-command shaped exactly like files-to-references / value-shapes, under its own card.

⚠️ Confidence gap: this seat has not measured whether any live deployment (cloud included) carries pre-ADR-0030 sys_notification rows; the maintainer's 2069 instruction is the basis for not weighting that.

Execution (standing rules): domain:cli keeps the card (the set and its docs live beside the two sibling sub-commands); coordinate with #16100 (in flight): the receipt writer stays generic, this id drops out of the attested set — #16100's seat is told on its card. Clause-②: yes (an exported symbol and an attested id are removed) ⇒ carriers on both; changeset minor for @objectstack/metadata and @objectstack/spec with **BREAKING** banner and an ADR-0087 disposition (not-required: nothing authorable moves).

Claim — executing the 2026-09-08 ruling (decision batch #88)

Dispatched by the domain:cli execution PM seat (seat post #6024, session session_015QE8qk46e5CHJxyQEUjbf8). Assignee and this claim are written by the dispatching seat; the dev inherits both, ⛔ posts no second claim, ⛔ does not touch the assignee.

• Branch: claude/issue-16194-retire-notification-event-migration
• Worktree: dedicated, ⛔ not the shared checkout.

Clause-②: yes — the ruling says so in its own execution paragraph 「an exported symbol and an attested id are removed」, and it is right: migrateSysNotificationToEvent leaves the barrel, and NOTIFICATION_EVENT_MIGRATION_ID leaves CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS. The path limb also fires — packages/spec/src/system/migration.zod.ts is under packages/spec/src/** and is a *.zod.ts, and that limb is content-independent. Carriers hung on both the card and the PR in the same stroke.

⚠️ Read this before you start: this card WILL be built and then WAIT

Under SKILL.md:514 as it stands today — 「强制条款②:凡放宽接受集或扩大公开面的卡默认判断档施工、契约复审档复核」 — a clause-② card builds at the default judgment tier, which is what you are. Only the review requires CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER, and the enqueue gate at :640 refuses the queue until an in-seat PASS is on record.

⚠️ CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER is measured unavailable to this session — ten consecutive HTTP 429s today — and there is no other seat running to route the review to (measured and recorded at #16611 5601766242). ⇒ Your PR will be correct, green, and parked outside the queue until that changes. contract-review.md:53 names that state explicitly: 标签在复核完成前原样留置,卡在队列外等待是安全态. ⛔ Do not treat parking as failure, ⛔ do not flip ready, ⛔ do not arm, and ⛔ do not propose working around the label.

The ruling — execute it, ⛔ do not re-open it

Verbatim from 5582372148 (director seat, decision batch #88, 2026-09-08, maintainer standing delegation 「继续决策」):

Ruled. The third answer. A migration nothing can run is not kept alive by three landed artefacts around it: migrateSysNotificationToEvent, its barrel export, its tests, the sys_migration receipt row for this id (#15710's matrix keeps the other two ids), the spec docblock and the id's membership in CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS are removed in one PR. Pre-ADR-0030 sys_notification rows are not carried by the platform on this line.

⛔ Both rejected alternatives stay rejected: "operator-runnable" (a new os migrate sub-command is a permanent operator surface for a migration with no measured demand) and "platform-run" (an unattended boot-time data rewrite is the higher-variance shape and nobody asked for it). ⛔ You are not to add a sub-command.

Execution, as the ruling specifies it:

• domain:cli keeps the card — the set and its docs live beside the two sibling sub-commands.
• ⭐ Coordinate with metadata: the adr-0030-notification-event migration writes its sys_migration receipt row per the ruled ledger-claim matrix — last_run_at on every completed run, applied_at on migrated only, never verified_at (#15710 follow-on) #16100, which is in flight: the receipt writer stays generic; this id drops out of the attested set. The ruling records that metadata: the adr-0030-notification-event migration writes its sys_migration receipt row per the ruled ledger-claim matrix — last_run_at on every completed run, applied_at on migrated only, never verified_at (#15710 follow-on) #16100's seat is told on its card — ⛔ verify that is still true before you assume it, and if metadata: the adr-0030-notification-event migration writes its sys_migration receipt row per the ruled ledger-claim matrix — last_run_at on every completed run, applied_at on migrated only, never verified_at (#15710 follow-on) #16100 has landed since, re-read what it actually shipped rather than what the ruling predicted.
• Changeset minor for @objectstack/metadata and @objectstack/spec, with a **BREAKING** banner and an ADR-0087 disposition of not-required (nothing authorable moves).

The reversal path belongs in the PR body so it is not lost: if a named deployment turns out to hold pre-ADR-0030 notification rows it needs, the migration returns as an operator-runnable sub-command shaped exactly like files-to-references / value-shapes, under its own card.

⚠️ The ruling states its own confidence gap and you should restate it rather than paper over it: no one has measured whether any live deployment (cloud included) carries pre-ADR-0030 sys_notification rows. The basis for not weighting that is the maintainer's standing instruction 「2069 不考虑现有数据」. ⛔ Do not present the retirement as if that measurement had been made.

Acceptance conditions

① Re-measure the population before removing anything, with a firing control. The card's zero — no production caller — was measured at an older head. Re-run it: every non-CHANGELOG reference to migrateSysNotificationToEvent, and confirm the instrument is live (the card's own run found the symbol in 13 files while finding zero production callers; a run that finds zero everywhere is a dead grep, ⛔ not a reading). Report both numbers.

② The three sibling ids are the control. CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS has exactly three members; two keep their sub-commands and their receipt rows. Assert after the change that the set has two members and that FILE_REFERENCES_MIGRATION_ID and VALUE_SHAPES_MIGRATION_ID are both still present with their rows intact. ⛔ A test that only asserts the third is gone cannot tell a correct removal from a set that lost everything.

③ Every removal is proved to be a removal, not a rename. For each of the six artefacts the ruling names, show the before/after occurrence count and that nothing re-exports it under another spelling.

④ Ablate the new pins. Restore one removed artefact and show the corresponding assertion goes red; predict the direction in writing first. Prove each mutation reached disk (occurrence counts plus a blob hash off the HEAD blob) and each restore was clean (git diff HEAD empty plus a blob equal to HEAD's), under a trap on EXIT INT TERM with absolute paths. An empty hash is a FAILURE, ⛔ never "nothing to compare".

⑤ Re-measure the single-writer holder from the OPEN PR LIST, ⛔ never from remote branches. ⚠️ Two of this seat's dispatches are live on other paths — #17143 holds packages/cli/** (config, verify, generate, compile and the migrate meta catch-all) and #16534 holds packages/client/src/index.ts. Neither should touch your face, but measure it rather than trusting this sentence, and name a positive control that fires.

Scope fence

• ⛔ Never edit content/docs/releases/ — your only input to release notes is your .changeset/*.md.
• ⛔ Never git stash; refs/stash is shared across every worktree.
• The declaration must appear in the PR body in the fixed spelling Clause-②: immediately followed by the value — **Clause-② declaration: yes** and a ## Clause-② heading match nothing. Run node scripts/pm/check-clause2-carriers.mjs --pair <PR> and report its exit code.
• Derive the gate family with scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --commands, reconcile with --ran, capture exit codes by redirect-then-$?, never through a pipe. A PREREQUISITE refusal is NOT MEASURED — declare it, ⛔ never count it as a pass.
• Open as a draft, Fixes #16194.

Claim: domain:cli execution PM seat (#6024), branch claude/issue-16194-retire-notification-event-migration.

Clause-②: yes

⛔ Corrected re-claim — the carrier, not the declaration, was wrong. My earlier claim 5602636036 opens with a ## Claim heading, and the enqueue gate's predicate is:

scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs:1068
export const CLAIM_COMMENT_MARKER = /^\s*>?\s*Claim(?:ed)?\s*:/mi;

⇒ it needs a line beginning Claim:. A ## heading never matches — the checker's own self-test: 「a heading-style claim is NOT a claim comment — the thread reads ABSENT, not missing-a-line」 (check-clause2-carriers.mjs:1988). ⚠️ Every claim this seat wrote today used the heading form and was therefore invisible to the gate. Proven and fixed on #15547, where the same correction moved --pair 17143 from exit 4 to a clean pass. ⭐ On this card the consequence would have been the opposite kind of wrong: the card carries Clause-②: yes, and an unreadable yes is a card that looks clean to the gate while its PR is one that must never enter the queue without a tier PASS.

⛔ Nothing about the dispatch changes — 5602636036 remains its record, including the five acceptance conditions and the scope fence.

Why yes, on both limbs. The 2026-09-08 ruling (decision batch #88, 5582372148) says it in its own execution paragraph — 「an exported symbol and an attested id are removed」: migrateSysNotificationToEvent leaves the barrel, and the id leaves CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS. The path limb fires independently: packages/spec/src/system/migration.zod.ts is under packages/spec/src/** and is a *.zod.ts, and that limb is content-independent.

⚠️ This card builds now and parks. SKILL.md:514 — 「强制条款②:凡放宽接受集或扩大公开面的卡默认判断档施工、契约复审档复核」 ⇒ it builds at the default judgment tier; only the review needs CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER, and :640 refuses the queue until an in-seat PASS is on record. That tier is measured unavailable to this session (ten consecutive 429s) with no other seat running to route to (#16611 5601766242). ⇒ the PR will be correct, green and outside the queue, which contract-review.md:53 names 安全态. ⛔ Not a failure, ⛔ not a reason to work around the label.

⚠️ The dev dispatched against this card was lost to a container restart before it reported. Re-dispatching; the branch name above is unchanged.

  "summary": "Executed the 2026-09-08 ruling (batch #88): the adr-0030-notification-event migration is retired whole. Removed the six named artefacts — migrateSysNotificationToEvent plus its three result/option/receipt types, its barrel export, its tests (migrate-sys-notification-to-event.test.ts, the runtime audit-preservation integration test, and the two runner cases plus the now-unused engine double in real-driver-exec-surface.test.ts), the sys_migration receipt-claim matrix and its pin file, the spec docblock stating it, and the id's membership in CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS (3 members to 2). NOTIFICATION_EVENT_MIGRATION_ID itself is KEPT, on the ruling's own wording, which enumerates the docblock and the membership as two separate removals and would not need to if the constant were going; see open_questions. Neither refused alternative was added: no os migrate sub-command, no boot-time invoker. Two new retirement pins replace the withdrawn ledger pin, each asserting the two ADR-0104 survivors by name beside every negative. Changeset is minor for @objectstack/metadata and @objectstack/spec with a BREAKING banner and an ADR-0087 disposition of not-required (no-migration-prescription). The reversal path and the ruling's unmeasured-deployment confidence gap are both restated in the PR body, the changeset, the barrel tombstone and the id's docblock. TWO DEVIATIONS FROM THE DISPATCH'S PREDICTIONS, both measured: (1) #16100 has NOT been in flight since 2026-09-06 — it closed completed two days BEFORE the ruling, and what it shipped was the id-specific receipt writer inside the runner plus the #15710 pin, both of which this PR removes as artefact 4; nothing generic is lost. (2) The single-writer measurement found ONE live collision the dispatch did not name: open PR #17073 (issue #16657) writes packages/metadata/src/migrations/migrate-sys-notification-to-event.ts — the file this PR deletes — with a 3-line operatorFacingErrorText swap in the runner's catch. Whichever lands second resolves a delete/modify conflict; the ruling decides the direction. Flagging it because work is in flight on a file the ruling retires. The dispatch's two named PRs do not touch this face. PR is a DRAFT, carries the needs:contract-review label, and is parked outside the queue as expected: not flipped ready, not armed.",
  "tests": "All exit codes captured by redirect-then-$?, never through a pipe. GATE FAMILY, derived with `node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --commands --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack` on the final tree and reconciled with --ran: 'Run reconciliation — 88 derived, 88 run, 0 NOT-MEASURED, 0 UNRUN' / '✓ dispatch-gates --ran: 88 derived famil(ies) accounted for'. 85 of 88 exit 0. THREE ARE NOT MEASURED, declared as such, never counted as passes: `pnpm check:dual-build-cjs-loads`, `pnpm check:i18n` and `pnpm check:type-check-debt` each exit 3 — their own PREREQUISITE-NOT-MET code, distinct from a finding's 1 — because they read built output for the whole workspace and only the four affected packages are built on this box ('PREREQUISITE NOT MET — this gate reads built output, and some package has no dist/', 37 packages named; '--re-measure cannot run: 1 workspace dependenc(ies) … have no built type entry point on disk'). CI builds the workspace and will measure all three. TESTS on the final head: spec 'Test Files 470 passed (470) / Tests 13191 passed (13191)'; metadata '52 passed (52) / 776 passed (776)'; platform-objects '38 passed (38) / 550 passed (550)'; runtime '248 passed (248) / 3511 passed (3511)'. TYPECHECK green for all four, each package's test layer compiling under its own tsconfig.test.json. `pnpm --filter @objectstack/spec check:generated`: '✓ All 15 generated artifacts are up to date'. scripts/engine-double-contract.pinned.json regenerated with `--write` exactly as the gate's refusal prescribes for a deleted test: 6 rows removed, 0 added; gate green after, and the sibling row PR #17116 landed survives the merge alongside the removals. `node scripts/pm/check-clause2-carriers.mjs --pair 17194` EXIT 0 — 'the clause-② declaration is readable in the fixed spelling and both carriers agree'. POPULATION (acceptance 1), re-measured on the merge base with a firing control: ZERO production callers (the only two call-shaped occurrences were a docblock line and the definition itself) while the instrument found the symbol in 17 FILES and 42 non-CHANGELOG occurrence lines — up from the card's 13 files because #16312's runtime integration test landed since. REMOVAL-NOT-RENAME (acceptance 3): `git grep -nE 'export [^;]*(SysNotificationMigration|migrateSysNotificationToEvent|NotificationToEvent)'` returns ZERO at head; the SAME expression at the merge base returns the four declarations, so the zero is a reading. ABLATION (acceptance 4), directions predicted in writing in the script header BEFORE the run, both matched exactly: (A) restoring the id into CREATION_ATTESTED_MIGRATION_IDS — predicted RED on exactly two spec-pin cases with the two DOCBLOCK cases staying GREEN; observed vitest exit 1, '2 failed | 5 passed', the two predicted cases by name. (B) restoring the runner module and its barrel export — predicted RED on exactly three metadata-pin cases with 'the barrel carries a tombstone' staying GREEN; observed vitest exit 1, '3 failed | 1 passed', the three predicted cases by name. Fix committed before both legs. Mutation proved on disk by occurrence counts AND blob hash off the HEAD blob (A: membership lines 0 to 1, blob e997213 to 75c399c; B: barrel export blocks 0 to 1, blob 5e42483 to 23da44c, restored runner byte-identical to merge-base blob dc21ee6). Restore proved by `git checkout HEAD -- path` (never a bare checkout, which takes the index), blob equal to HEAD's, EMPTY `git diff HEAD`, and a final `git status --porcelain` observed empty. An empty hash is treated as FAILURE. Whole script under `trap ... EXIT INT TERM` with absolute paths only. NOT a dist ablation and declared so: both subjects are read through relative in-package specifiers that vitest resolves to src/, never through a package exports entry to dist/, so ablation-dist-preflight has nothing to assert; the platform-objects suite DOES reach spec through exports and is deliberately not the suite ablated. SINGLE-WRITER (acceptance 5): measured from GET /pulls?state=open and each PR's own /files (its head against its own merge base), never from remote branches; my authored face is the 16 paths of `git diff --name-only $(git merge-base origin/main HEAD) HEAD` — the three-dot set against the stale base would have counted main's merged commits as mine. Exactly one collision, PR #17073, detailed in summary. POSITIVE CONTROL: injecting packages/services/service-analytics/src/plugin.ts into the same join fires and names PR #16778. One flake found and fixed in my own new pin: the barrel import is now at module top, because paying that load inside a clocked it() timed out at 5s on the shared box; the ablation was re-run after the change and case B now reddens in 3ms instead of 5003ms.",
  "mcp_calls": "2 — one search_issues (duplicate check before filing) and one issue_write (filing #17193). Everything else went through repo-scoped REST on the core bucket or through git.",
  "open_questions": [
    {
      "question": "Should the exported constant NOTIFICATION_EVENT_MIGRATION_ID itself be deleted, or kept as the name of sys_migration rows already written under it? This PR keeps it; the question is for the CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER, and reversing it is a two-line change.",
      "options": [
        "A — KEEP it (what this PR does). The ruling enumerates 'the spec docblock' and 'the id's membership' as two SEPARATE removals, both of which deleting the constant would imply and so make redundant; the dispatch's acceptance conditions likewise count SIX artefacts with the constant not among them. A deployment attested at birth still holds a sys_migration row keyed 'adr-0030-notification-event' and an operator reading that table needs the id to still mean something. Its docblock is now a retirement tombstone naming both refused alternatives and the reversal path.",
        "B — DELETE it too. Prime Directive #10's corollary: a registered migration id whose migration cannot run is a declaration the runtime does not deliver, and nothing in the repo writes or reads a row under it any more. The counterweight to the 'existing rows' argument is the ruling's own basis, the maintainer's standing 2069 instruction not to weight existing data."
      ],
      "recommendation": "A, because it is the literal reading of a ruling that enumerates its removals precisely, and because a retirement PR that removes MORE public surface than the ruling names is exactly what contract review exists to catch. B is cheap to apply on top if the tier reads it the other way — drop the constant and drop the one `it('the id itself is KEPT ...')` case."
    }
  ],
  "out_of_scope_findings": [
    "filed as #17193: docs/adr/0030-notification-platform-convergence.md:105 still prescribes 'Run migrateSysNotificationToEvent during the cut-over' — an operator copying it gets an unresolvable import. Deliberately not fixed here: docs/adr/** is a governed surface, one path hit would make this whole diff hand-merge-only, and amending an ADR is itself a decision (Prime Directive #13). The OPERATOR-FACING half WAS fixed in this PR because it is not governed: docs/handoff/adr-0030-notification-convergence.md — the runbook ADR-0030 defers to — now carries a tombstone where its step 2 was, so the doc an operator is actually sent to is correct today. Line :80 of the ADR is a historical seams record and is fine as it stands.",
    "noted, not filed: @objectstack/metadata still declares @objectstack/platform-objects in its dependencies, and nothing in packages/metadata/src imports it any more — the deleted runner was its only consumer, together with the @objectstack/platform-objects/system alias in packages/metadata/vitest.config.ts whose comment cites #16100. Dead configuration is not one of the three fileable classes, and dropping a published package's dependency is its own public-surface change. Taker: the next PR touching that manifest's dependency block.",
    "noted, not filed: open PR #17073 (issue #16657) is doing live work inside packages/metadata/src/migrations/migrate-sys-notification-to-event.ts, the file the 2026-09-08 ruling retires — a 3-line operatorFacingErrorText swap in the runner's catch. Not a defect and not a duplicate of this card; a sequencing item for the PM. Whichever PR lands second resolves a delete/modify conflict, and the ruling decides the direction.",
    "noted, not filed: the changeset states its removals without a FROM/TO framing on purpose. check-adr-0087-registration refuses not-required (no-migration-prescription) when the body carries a rewrite prescription, and the first draft's FROM/TO table tripped it correctly — its TO column read 'removed', which is not a TO. Nothing here is renamed and nothing replaces anything, so the disposition the ruling named now passes on a positive reading rather than on a detector miss. AGENTS.md's 'a breaking changeset must state the FROM to TO mapping' degenerates for a removal with no replacement; the body states the deletion and the one-line fix in prose instead."
