W-015: session/context.py:207-246 post-generation unitize is
test-covered but not ADR-documented as an allowed normalization
boundary. Surfaced by L6 audit (#246) answering L1's forward note
(#237).
Per CLAUDE.md normalization rules, sanctioned unitize sites are
ingest/gate.py, language_packs/compiler.py, and algebra/versor.py.
The session/context.py site is not in that list — either an
undocumented allowed boundary or a discipline violation.
Recommended resolution path: investigate root cause first; if
unitize is masking an upstream construction violation, fix upstream.
If it's a legitimate boundary, write ADR sanctioning it. If it's
pure drift repair, refactor to remove (per CLAUDE.md "do not add
drift repair").
Updated dependency graph and suggested-sequence list to include
W-015 as a discipline-question entry.
Progress note updated: L0-L7 audited (7 of 9 layers); L8-L9 pending.
Five new wiring-debt entries from L4 (recognition) and L5
(cognition pipeline) audits:
- W-010 — L4 recognition bypasses L3 vocabulary (operator decision:
intentional token-level or wire VocabManifold consumption).
- W-011 — Typed recognition refusals dropped at pipeline boundary
(mechanical fix, small; closes recognition audit-trail gap).
- W-012 — InnerLoopExhaustion not caught in ChatRuntime.chat()
(mechanical fix, small; sibling of W-011; closes ADR-0142 debt #3).
- W-013 — core/cognition/explain.py dormant (operator decision:
wire, relocate, or delete).
- W-014 — core/cognition/provenance.py partially live, evals-only
(operator decision: lighter version of W-013).
Reordered suggested next-ADR sequence to lead with mechanical quick
wins (W-011, W-012, W-004) before operator-decision items (W-006,
W-013/14, W-010), before second-order changes (W-005), before the
big L10 unit (W-008). Reasoning documented inline: early measurable
progress, no architectural risk, demonstrates audit-to-fix loop
closes.
Updated dependency graph to show the three independent groups
(mechanical, operator-decision, L10-gated chain).
L0-L5 audited; L6-L9 pending. Ratchet stays append-only; v2 marker
in title and "L0-L5 + L10 scope" in subtitle.
