Maintainer's finding of 2026-10-14 recorded in hunter-learning-loop (a dated section that overrides the shape
annotations as the model's input), its design (amendment pointing to the prover's trace) and the steering
overview's current state.

Opus agent delivery under spec access-control-prover, requirement 10. `semantic/cfg.py` builds a control-flow
graph per function from the syntax tree (if/else, switch arms, loops, try/catch/finally, return, throw, break,
continue, exit, assert) with dominators and a per-line control context, and leaves a function without a graph
rather than a wrong one. `obligations/cfg_dominance.py::CfgDominance` discharges a statement guard only when it
lies on every path to the operation and the operation is unreachable from its failing arm; a predicate whose
result nothing consumes is `value_only` and never discharges; router, decorator and earlier-hop witnesses behave
as before; without a graph the order rule applies and `cfg_unavailable` is recorded. The trace's guards carry
`relation` and `effect`, the trace carries `operation_context`; Java parameter lists carry names only; a
handler-named operation's arguments are the handler's parameters. The checker's default stays order-based.
Smoke on the 23 fix changes: 15 caught, 55 of 93 locations, precision 15 of 15, no failure, no change over
120 s (unchanged from delivery B). Gate: 3575 tests pass; the reserved-repository guard passes on the export.

Raised by the implementing agent: the design named only exits on the failing arm; if (can(x)) { op(); } is the
common shape and the operation is unreachable from the failing arm there too.

Requirement 10, the structural control-flow graph per function and CfgDominance behind the existing protocol,
tasks 4.4 and 4.5. Textual order stays the checker's default; the prover selects control flow.

The maintainer's correction: counts over a function, language or framework carry nothing about safety; the
object a decision model may see is the path from an attacker-reachable entry to a protected operation, with the
checks on it in control-flow order and the provenance of the operation's arguments. Requirement 9, the trace
contract and tasks 4.2 and 4.3.

Codex delivery under spec access-control-prover plus one fix of mine. Operation rows may now name a handler by
name pattern and framework (Jenkins form validation and list filling, Tornado request methods, Remix actions);
the mapper recognises Symfony, Livewire and Laravel controllers, Remix exports and Tornado handlers;
`obligations/enforcement.py` turns Laravel route middleware, Symfony attributes and security.yaml rules and
Tornado's authenticated decorator into router and decorator witnesses. The path walk looks each node's callers
up once per change and does not walk a tree with no recognised entry: one seatunnel change fell from 670 s to
35 s. One name Codex could not source (Tornado get_current_user) is left out and said so in the facts header.
Smoke on the 23 fix changes: 15 pushes caught (65 percent, Wilson 45 to 81), 55 of 93 locations, precision
15 of 15 flagged, no instrument failure, no change over 120 s. Delivery A caught 7.

Codex delivery under spec access-control-prover. `semantic/obligations/paths.py` builds entry-to-function path
records from the cached caller index; `mapping.py` names Stapler web methods and Jetty handlers as entries;
`check_obligations` gains the opt-in premise `assume_entries_protected` with the label `unguarded_path`;
`hunt/prover.py` proves a change with no model call and states its coverage; `benchmarks/valid/prover_arm.py`
scores it with the valid-benchmark metrics. Two fixes after the first smoke run: a product file git holds empty
is read, not unread (four changes failed on `__init__.py` and empty assets), and absent-input reasons are
counted by name.
Smoke on the 23 fix changes of the training pool: 7 pushes caught (30 percent, Wilson 16 to 51), 28 of 93
locations, precision 7 of 8 flagged, no instrument failure; three changes over the 120 second bound. Twelve of
the 17 Jenkins fixes reach the fixed method but check no operation because the method is the operation;
the spec now carries handler-named operations for delivery B.

Codex stopped on a real conflict: with path records and no clause or sibling norm the checker returns no finding
by design. The prover's premise (a recognised entry is protected unless declared public) is now an opt-in keyword
with its own label and evidence, default off, existing behaviour and tests unchanged.

A deterministic check that a protected operation is reachable from an entry point without a check dominating
the path, per framework, built on the existing obligations checker, caller index and entry mapper; scored as a
rule arm on the access-control training pool. Follows the maintainer's finding that the hunter's features
describe shape and cannot decide unsafety.

rounds.py runs a candidate over compile or held-out folds through runner.run, so a tool-using
program has its tools bound to each change's checkout, and turns paired records into the
FoldResults accept.decide reads (closes the gap noted in bacd7a1). report.py runs an accepted
program once over the held-out pilot: a ledger line reserved before the run refuses a second run
per program id, contaminated or unchecked training runs are refused, the instrument is proved per
change and more than 5% failures makes the run invalid with no numbers quoted, the pilot's own
scorer and metrics give the after numbers, the recorded hunter numbers give the before, baseline
repeats pair with the single run, the proof arm's workload per 100 pushes is counted, and the gate
distance is read off the confidence curve. 124 hunt and stats tests pass. Implemented by Codex
(gpt-6-astra), gated here.

propose.py: one change per round (instruction, demonstrations or one mask), examples built from
compile folds only with a provenance record of the change ids used, a registry for GEPA, MIPROv2
and BootstrapFewShot (MIPROv2 without the data-aware proposer so labels are never serialised),
compile-fold scoring with Wilson and the repository-paired bootstrap, and a compile-only history
the next round may read. accept.py: the rule as independent clauses (both folds non-negative with
one strictly positive, per-family regression budget on held-out recall, tie tolerance, no
acceptance without an interval, instruction cap, one change only), the comparison recorded in the
candidate artifact's configurations, rejections logged without held-out numbers. 48 fixture tests.
Known gap for live rounds: the optimisers and propose._score call the program directly, so a
tool-using program must be scored through the runner with its tools bound per checkout (6.1).
Implemented by Codex (gpt-6-astra), gated here.
