- story 02: `status: done`, `review_pending` (forks 1–7 auto-approved for
autonomy); progress rows 6a ✅, 6b ➡ databasev2 5 Phase A, 7 `a310496`;
5c/5d rows cite the `dev` hashes (the pre-merge ones were unreachable);
task 6a's Given/When/Then met; Info records the seven forks (sentinel over
`:memory:`, its rules, the refusal contract, startup-only, the budget
leaves for 5, library-owned tables bind consumers, the v8 table bit);
History keeps the first cut that refused every class-bearing program
- database/src/CODE-LOGIC.md: "Startup refusal + WO_EPHEMERAL" — contract,
hatch, table bit, measured blast radius, deferred items, proof; the
dispatcher paragraph no longer says a failed commit un-applies the row
(fatal since databasev2 4 part A; WO_T_IO unreachable from a write path)
- residency spec + plan: task 6 items annotated with the 2026-09-09
decisions; the byte budget marked moved to databasev2 5
- README, seven example READMEs and four guides carry the one-line rule
(durable default refuses without WO_DATA; WO_EPHEMERAL=1; durable:
false); shop's RAM-only command sets the sentinel

(cherry picked from commit 2c3531998124042fe736388e8b926abda3841194)
- resolved 9g's forks EMPIRICALLY against the running compiler:
- count(<query>) and len(<query>) already work (fork 2 collapses to
zero code)
- skillhost's correlated NOT EXISTS is a backlink emptiness in
writeonce (`where len(x.children) == 0`), using only 9b machinery
(fork 1) — verified on a self-referential ?ref/backlink table
=> corpus #1 forces NO new grammar; per the method ("add only what a
corpus uses"), exists/not-exists was NOT built
- docs/examples/skill-catalog: mirrors skillhost's `skills` table
(name @unique, description/location/root, parent ?ref Skill, children
backlink) and translates all five of its SQL statements 1:1
(insert+dup-trap, get-by-name, list, roots via backlink-emptiness,
count); scripts/skill-catalog-accept.sh 7/0, WAL-durable, dup trap
persists across restart
- fixture run/db-query-corpus (count(query) + backlink NOT EXISTS);
just skill-catalog module; target/ gitignored
- general exists/not-exists left unbuilt and recorded as "enters when a
corpus forces a non-relation correlation"
- gates: oop-e2e 80/0, woc-test 566/0, skill-catalog 7/0; story + board
record the finding
