The operator decided on 2026-09-23 to port the live fly onto the session framework in full.
New contract legacy-gameboy-v1: the profile gameboy-legacy-fafb-v783-v1, the proof that the
legacy f64 frame clock equals the rational one, the step-by-step placement of step_frame in
lockstep-v1, the readout context (location allowed and declared), the channels decision, the
memory-image inspection and ROM AssetRef, the environment (one no-button setup frame, u8->f32
audio, DC blocker at the edge, gameboy-slots-v1), the pokered-macros-v1 executor as one object
with its task, the legacy-ratchet-rollback-v1 policy, the composition digest carrying decoder
and macro-channel configuration, legacy-transient-reset restore semantics, sugar admission with
a one-commit lag, and FLYSIM01 as format of record until RETIRE-01. PROF-02b is a stub.
Dated amendments, each citing the decision, where earlier text kept the legacy loop outside
lockstep or had no place for it: workers-v1 (telemetry, Initialize, executor, episode request
kind, admission, new section 7 extension methods), step-v1 (rollback edge, Phase B/C, clock,
episode policy, sugar lag), state-media-v1 (audio, memory-image retention, restore semantics,
format of record, section 7 ratchet), README section 4, implementation.md (AGENT-01 and ENV-01
unblocked), the MaleCNS backlog (FOUNDATION-02 split, RUNTIME-01 contract) and analysis (5.2,
5.4), and readout.md (where the location comes from).
STATE-01 over the FLYSESS1 envelope CONTRACT-01 specified.
fly-session gains a `state` module: the durable store with its generations, its
rotation and the commit order of checkpoint-envelope-v1 section 5, where the store
manifest rename is the durable commit point; a compatibility block whose comparison
names the identity that differs rather than one opaque digest; and a bounded writer
that owns its payload handles until the bytes are committed or the job fails.
The writer's queue slot is taken before the first State.Capture, so a saturated
writer refuses a capture rather than queueing it without bound, and the refusal is a
BUSY the stepping session survives. Capture and durability are two events: a capture
completes when an immutable capture exists, and only the store manifest rename moves
the durable mark. A lost save reply is an outcome, and the resolution asks the store
about the same checkpoint instead of saving again.
Both worker roles implement State.Capture, State.StageRestore and
State.ActivateRestore, with once-only restore tokens bound to checkpoint, scope,
payload and incarnation. A restore selects a complete compatible generation, imports
every payload as a fresh artifact, stages the group, validates the coordinator's own
ledgers, and only then activates; a failure anywhere leaves the fence closed and
records every participant that staged as one that must be replaced. The fence lifts
at Failed -> Restoring(k) -> Paused(k) and nowhere else.
The task and the action executor gain the capture/validate_restore/install_restore
interfaces workers-v1 section 4 lists, and the ledger can re-derive the event
identities it issued under another epoch, which is what lets a resumed run's
behaviour trace be compared with an uninterrupted one.
media: check_required_audio now takes the observation's provenance instead of
exempting boundary 0. A chunk is the audio of an interval, and the observation
ActivateRestore installs covers none.
checkpoint-envelope-v1 section 3 gains a dated amendment adding `environment` to the
manifest, the holder of the world's own payload, which the table named for every
other participant; `helperState`, which that table already listed, joins the
required-field set in Rust and TypeScript. The fixture was regenerated by the
existing example; the schema set and contractDigest are unchanged.
state-media-v1 section 5 gains a dated amendment for three readings this slice
enforces: the State RPCs' compatibilityDigest is the participant's, not the
manifest's composition-level block; a restored observation carries no audio chunk;
and a participant that staged into an abandoned install must be replaced.
publishing-v1 over the same bus: a declared delivery policy per topic, named
publication outcomes, the bounded event batch, application-owned state and cues,
a read-only descriptor query service and a fake multi-agent consumer.
The session publishes the contract types rather than an ad-hoc payload, so a
descriptor says what the workers attested to and a snapshot is checked against it
before it is published and again when it is read: every frame comes from the
boundary its declared delay implies, every handle is the artifact its reference
names, and an observer's refusal takes no world step and fences no epoch.
AgentInitializeResult gains graph (datasetDigest, indexDigest, neuronCount,
rateRoles, supportedStimuli), without which no AgentDescriptor field in
publishing-v1 section 3 had a source. Dated amendments to workers-v1 section 2,
publishing-v1 section 2 and state-media-v1 section 3.
Review round two.
A restored timeline refuses a declared stream with no recorded sample
position instead of resuming it at zero, which would have restarted the
episode's audio clock silently.
A declared stream that produces no chunk for a transition now fails the
step. The contract does not say a chunk must exist; this slice requires
one, because a silently missing chunk cannot be told from a lost one.
Boundary 0 is exempt: no interval precedes it.
The fresh-epoch discontinuity refusal is dropped rather than written into
the amendment. Only the restore direction is stated, and sections 6 and 7
both have a fresh timeline publishing a discontinuity after a recovery or
a reset, so refusing the flag at an origin contradicted them. The dated
amendment now says the requirement is one-directional.
A snapshot with an unreadable chunk, or one whose handle is not attached,
is now unreadable as a whole rather than quietly carrying less audio than
was published. ViewPipeline::is_bootstrap_repeat is removed.
New tests: a missing chunk fails the step, restored timelines need every
declared stream's position, and a 7 Hz world's seven chunks sum to exactly
one second of 48 kHz samples. The bus-conformance reconnect row also cites
the test that actually replaces an incarnation.
Two readings of the section that are now checked rather than assumed: the
bootstrap window is exactly the boundaries where max(0, boundary - delay)
is zero and its repeated O[0] is the same artifact, and a chunk that
continues the previous one exactly cannot claim a discontinuity, which is
what keeps the restore rule checkable instead of advisory.
