The session bindings combined Nickel pedigree syntax with YAML fields, so adding a K9 header did not make them executable Nickel. Convert both records to valid .k9.ncl files and evaluate them with Nickel in Estate Rules CI.

Update the root allowlist, generated repository map, and session documentation for the renamed files. The Nickel download is version-pinned and SHA-256 verified; unavailable tools and invalid records fail validation.

Validation: both records evaluate with Nickel 1.17.0; root shape passes; the generated repository map is refreshed; changed workflow passes actionlint.

This fixes the template source of failures addressed in hyperpolymath/natsci-studio#82 and hyperpolymath/fraying-model-computational-testbed#65.

…tive source

The record family in machine-readable/ is specified by exactly one
document: deed/spec/DEED-GRAMMAR-SPEC.adoc in hyperpolymath/standards.
This repository is a template, so every repo scaffolded from it inherits
whatever these READMEs say about the format. They currently say four
things that are wrong or stale. Fixed as pointers, not copies.

rsr-profile.a2ml
  Cited "hyperpolymath/standards a2ml/RECORD-DIALECT-SPEC.adoc". Two
  errors: that spec lives in hyperpolymath/a2ml, not standards, and the
  standards a2ml/ subtree was evicted by 24a12d6f on 2026-08-28, so the
  path resolves to nothing. The dialect is also now superseded. Header
  comment corrected; the record surface is deliberately untouched.

descriptiles/README.adoc
  Was markdown syntax inside a .adoc file, so asciidoctor rendered the
  headings and links as body text. Rewritten as real AsciiDoc. Drops the
  deprecated "6A2" term. Replaces the one dead link
  (standards/tree/main/a2ml) with the DEED grammar pointer; the other two
  links were verified live and are kept. Adds the explicit statement that
  DEED has no key = value form, since the absence of that statement is the
  documented cause of the family-wide divergence.

machine-readable/README.adoc
  Was a three-line stub. Now carries the pillar-level normative pointer
  and describes what each subdirectory holds.

contractiles/README.adoc
  Pointer banner only; the substantive trident and k9-tier content is
  sound and untouched. Records that two of its citations are unresolved
  (docs/CONTRACTILE-SPEC.adoc does not exist here, and the contractile CLI
  was never built) rather than silently repairing them.

Scope: 207 files in this repo mention a2ml. This changes four. The
extension rename is a single atomic estate-wide change (#64) because ~40%
of these basenames are literals in source and in Nickel runners.

Verified: asciidoctor renders all three .adoc files clean.
check-variant-drift.sh reads only descriptiles/VARIANT.a2ml and
validate-template.sh checks file existence, so neither gate is affected.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added automated validation for session-management contracts and policy checks.
    • Added Nickel-based configuration for session coordination and repository-specific session checks.
    • Validation now confirms required file format and evaluates policy definitions when Nickel is available.
  • Documentation

    • Updated repository and session documentation to reflect the new .ncl configuration files.
    • Added guidance on running session contract validation and its failure conditions.
  • Chores

    • Updated allowlists and workflow configuration to support the renamed Nickel files and automated checks.

Walkthrough

The session coordination and custom-check files move from .k9 files to Nickel .k9.ncl records. A validation script evaluates both records. CI installs a pinned Nickel binary, runs validation, and updates repository references.

Changes

Session contract migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Nickel contract definitions
coordination.k9, coordination.k9.ncl, session/custom-checks.k9, session/custom-checks.k9.ncl
The coordination and custom-check policies move to Nickel records. The session commands, signals, metadata, and three policy checks are retained in the new files.
Contract validation and CI wiring
scripts/validate-session-contracts.sh, .github/workflows/estate-rules.yml
The script checks the K9! envelope and evaluates both records with Nickel. CI installs Nickel 1.17.0 with checksum verification and runs the script.
Repository references and documentation
docs/architecture/REPOSITORY-MAP.adoc, machine-readable/root-allow.txt, session/README.adoc
Repository references use the new .k9.ncl filenames. The session documentation describes the validation command and Nickel evaluation.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 92b06

Session-policy validation can reject otherwise valid policy files that begin with blank lines, creating avoidable CI failures until envelope handling matches the repository convention.

Extend the existing Nickel validator with an explicit --typecheck mode
for instantiated K9 and plain Nickel files. Remove the K9 transport
envelope before invoking the actual Nickel typechecker, preserve
relative import lookup, and retain the existing mandatory session
evaluation and envelope controls. CI verifies accepted plain/wrapped
records and a rejected malformed record. This follows the repository
validation fixes in #80 and does not execute deployment commands.

…s, finish banner dedup, unbreak the mint path, align Deno policy (#105)

Batch from the 2026-09-17 issue triage. Four independently reviewable
commits, rebased clean onto `750f0fe` — the #103/#104 lockstep work is
untouched (verified: both this branch's edits and #104's coexist in
`dogfood-gate.yml`).

## 1. `fix(ci)`: resolve committed merge-conflict markers in
push-email-notify.yml

**Unfiled critical defect.** PR #100 (`f7527ed`) committed a *nested,
unresolved three-way conflict* into
`.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml` (lines 43–51). The file has
not been valid YAML since; the workflow has **failed on every push to
main** (witness: run at 2026-09-17T17:52, `conclusion=failure`). Both
sides carried the same ref (`smtp-notify-action@v0.3.0`); resolved to
the single pre-corruption line from `b80b3dd`, with the NOSONAR pin
citation synced to `actions.lock`'s current value (`sha1-22e7bdb3…` —
the committed comment cited the pre-bump `sha1-ede1191e…`, stale since
`e8764e7`). The #58/#73 guards around the damage are preserved intact.

## 2. `fix(ci)`: finish the managed-by banner de-duplication across all
workflows

#56 item 2 flagged `scorecard.yml`; #101 de-duplicated exactly one file
(`dogfood-gate.yml`). The defect spans **24 of 36 workflows** (2–3
identical banners each; `scorecard.yml` and `quality.yml` had three).
Mechanical de-dup keeping the first occurrence; all 36 re-verified to
parse. Root cause worth a follow-up: the lockfile inserter is not
idempotent — every pass adds a line.

## 3. `fix(mint)`: repoint repo-init at the Ruby ports of the two
ex-Python scripts

#62 remainder. #80 ported `strip-instruction-blocks` /
`prune-dependabot-ecosystems` to Ruby and added
`tests/workflows/mint_cleanup_test.sh` (re-executed here under ruby
3.3.8: **PASS**), but left the mint path calling the deleted `.py`
files:

```
build/just/repo-init.just:325  python3 scripts/strip-instruction-blocks.py .
build/just/repo-init.just:340  python3 scripts/prune-dependabot-ecosystems.py …
```

**`just repo-init` has been broken for every mint since #80.** Also
repoints the two `LEFTOVER_BLOCKS` exclusion regexes
(`repo-init.just:721`, `template_instantiation_test.sh:258`) that still
exempted the vanished `.py` path while the `.rb` port — which
necessarily contains the literal `TEMPLATE INSTRUCTIONS` marker — was
not exempted: the post-mint check would have flagged the stripping tool
itself.

## 4. `docs(policy)`: align CLAUDE.md Deno status with the closed owner
ruling (standards#655)

#70 remainder. The filed gate failure is stale (the `typescript_runtime`
regex no longer matches `CLAUDE.md` — re-verified), but `CLAUDE.md`
still said "Deno (**grandfathered**)" — the exact word the 2026-08-26
ruling repudiates — while this repo's own `runtime-policy.yml` enforces
"BEING REMOVED, not grandfathered (canon standards#655)". Canon-side
companion PR: hyperpolymath/standards `deno-row-655-completion` (linked
below) — **merge together**. Every fail-pattern of
`standards/tools/policy/check-language-policy.sh` re-run against the
edited `CLAUDE.md`: none fire. Same commit repoints two **dead
`.hypatia-ignore` exemptions** (`boj-build.yml` →
`build-notification.yml`; `wellknown-enforcement.yml` →
`dot-wellknown-enforcement.yml`; substring fragments could never match
the renamed files).

## Verification (local)

| check | result |
|---|---|
| 36 workflows YAML-parse | pass |
| conflict markers repo-wide | none |
| banner count per workflow | exactly 1 |
| `.py` references to the ported scripts | none |
| `tests/workflows/mint_cleanup_test.sh` (ruby 3.3.8) | PASS |
| `check-language-policy.sh` fail-patterns vs edited `CLAUDE.md` | none
fire |
| `.hypatia-ignore` fragments resolve to existing files | all |

Closes #56 (items 1 & 3 fixed earlier by #59 / `empty-linter.yml`; item
2 by commit 2 here).
Closes #62 (port + tests landed in #80; call sites and exclusions fixed
here).
Closes #70 (template side here; canon side in the standards PR; the
RSR-spec inversion and ai-instruction examples are escalated there as
owner calls).

A follow-on stacked PR (www/ site-operations bundle, #53 stages 1–4) is
based on this branch.
