Owner

What this does

Deletes the 27 tracked .a2ml records from echo-types, by owner ruling of 2026-09-30 (booked as D222 on hyperpolymath/standards#787). Per the owner, STATE.a2ml should not exist any more because the estate moved to .deed records with .k9 and coordination.

  • Removed: .machine_readable/6a2/*.a2ml (7), agent_instructions/ (3), anchors/ (1), bot_directives/ (3), contractiles/*.a2ml (6), integrations/ (5), root 0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml, audits/assail-classifications.a2ml.
  • History stays reachable. Every retired directory keeps a README.adoc notice that permalinks the frozen tree at 39a7a99. .github/CONTRIBUTING.md items 3, 6 and 7 now point at the frozen STATE.a2ml sections instead of a live file.
  • K9 guard. methodology-guard.k9.ncl loses its three checks that inspected the deleted records (state_not_template, anchor_clade_not_fabricated, coverage_updated). A check aimed at a deleted file is a false check. The proof-discipline checks stay.
  • CHANGELOG.adoc gains a dated Removed entry.

Known tension, recorded not hidden

Ruling D43 on hyperpolymath/rsr-template-repo#209 says held .a2ml sweeps resume "as conversions, never as in-place edits". This PR is a deletion, not a conversion, by the owner's explicit order. The template side and the .deed conversion stay with #209; see the comment there dated today.

An org-wide code search counted 109 files outside echo-types that name STATE.a2ml. None is a CI gate that echo-types calls: the pinned governance reusable references only Debtfile.a2ml, which echo-types never had.

Left for the .deed conversion

Prose mentions remain in .gitattributes, .machine_readable/self-validating/, .machine_readable/svc/k9/README.adoc, CLAUDE.md, GOVERNANCE, INDEX, PROOF-STATUS, QUICKSTART-DEV/MAINTAINER, TOPOLOGY, roadmap, docs/.../decoration-bridge/README.adoc, a comment in proofs/agda/EchoDecorationBridge.agda, and the wiki. self-validating/examples/setup-repo.k9.ncl still writes a new .a2ml; that example belongs to the template lane.

Relation to #331

Removing STATE.a2ml also removes the prose line that gitleaks' generic-api-key rule misread as a secret on #331. hyperpolymath/standards#1087 cures the same false positive at the baseline, independently.

`countAggregator`'s group-by key `K` is phantom in `GroupAggregator`
(never mentioned by `agg`), so Agda's unifier cannot solve it from
`V`, `M`, or the result type at either `aggregate-values
countAggregator …` call site (line 153 `example-count`, line 159
`count-clones-per-haplotype`). Supply it explicitly as `Haplotype`,
the key this module actually groups clones by (the GROUP BY analogue
the surrounding comment names) — semantically honest, not just a
syntactically convenient placeholder.

Reproduced the unsolved metas verbatim against agda 2.6.4.3 with
stdlib v2.3 + absolute-zero@3ff5cee (the pins agda.yml uses), fixed
both sites, and confirmed a clean typecheck of All.agda, Smoke.agda,
characteristic/All.agda, examples/All.agda, and
EchoImageFactorizationPropCubical.agda (the full `check` job recipe).
A mutant reverting only the `example-count` site reproduced the
unsolved meta at exactly that line while `count-clones-per-haplotype`
stayed solved, confirming the fix is what clears each site.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Updated contribution guidance and release history to reflect the retirement of the machine-readable records.
    • Historical records remain available in a frozen archive; the retired locations should not be repopulated.
    • .deed records are identified as the replacement format, with the wider conversion tracked separately.
  • Chores
    • Removed the retired machine-readable records and related checks.

Walkthrough

The pull request removes the repository’s .a2ml records, marks affected directories as retired in favour of .deed records, removes three K9 checks that targeted deleted files, and updates contribution guidance and the changelog with the retirement date and historical reference.

Changes

A2ML record retirement

Layer / File(s) Summary
Remove 6a2 records
.machine_readable/6a2/*
Removes the 6a2 manifest, governance and project records. The README now marks the directory as retired and links to its frozen historical tree.
Remove repository policy records
.machine_readable/agent_instructions/*, .machine_readable/anchors/*, .machine_readable/bot_directives/*, .machine_readable/contractiles/*, 0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml
Removes the agent-instruction, anchor, bot-directive, contractile and root AI manifest records. The agent-instructions and bot-directives READMEs now mark their directories as retired.
Remove integration and audit records
.machine_readable/integrations/*, audits/assail-classifications.a2ml
Removes the integrations index, integration records and A2ML supply-chain classification registry. The integrations README now marks the directory as retired.
Update retirement references
.machine_readable/svc/k9/methodology-guard.k9.ncl, .github/CONTRIBUTING.md, CHANGELOG.adoc
Removes three K9 checks for deleted records. Updates contribution guidance to use a fixed historical revision and adds the dated removal entry to the changelog.

Review details

Systems and components

  • observed — 0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml (service) was modified; 1 changed file maps to changed impact.
  • observed — audits (service) was modified; 1 changed file maps to changed impact.
  • observed — CHANGELOG.adoc (service) was modified; 1 changed file maps to changed impact.

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in 0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml: The manifest was deleted, removing its AI editing permissions and prohibitions, post-edit verification requirement, and escalation rules for breaking changes, EI-2 mentions, banned-pattern regressions, naming regressions, and 6a2 schema drift.
  • observed — Modified behavior in CHANGELOG.adoc: Adds a dated removal entry recording the retirement of 27 .a2ml records in favour of .deed records, the frozen-copy reference and its purpose, removal of three K9 checks targeting the deleted files, and the tracked conversion issue.
  • observed — Modified behavior in audits/assail-classifications.a2ml: The deleted file contained an active, single-entry classification registry. Its flake.guix SupplyChain entry recorded that flake.lock pins nixpkgs with a revision and narHash, agda-stdlib uses tag v2.3, and absolute-zero uses commit 3ff5cee7f3fd002378089cd02f0c90a3747b45f0; it also noted a CI SHA check and that the finding was stale at current main. The registry metadata excluded ten worktree-path scan artefacts and noted that the arghda-core finding belonged to the extracted repository.
  • observed — Modified behavior in .github/CONTRIBUTING.md: The significant-change checklist item now requires a CHANGELOG.md entry and records the retirement date of STATE.a2ml, replacing the requirement to bump that file’s last-updated field.

A rabbit read the changelog by moonlight,
Then tucked old records out of sight.

While .deed records take the care.”
It hopped through fields beneath the stars.

Mark the K9 README references as historical.

In .machine_readable/svc/k9/README.adoc, Lines 63–67 say K9 validates 6a2/STATE.a2ml, enforces decisions from 6a2/META.a2ml, and stores guard ceilings in agent_instructions/methodology.a2ml. This change deletes those records and removes their checks. Readers may rely on validation that no longer runs. Mark those references as historical or update them to the replacement source.

Keep what the records carried reachable without recreating .a2ml:
- .github/CONTRIBUTING.md points at the frozen STATE.a2ml at 39a7a99
  for the EI-2 fence and the naming traps.
- The four directories left holding only a README get a retirement
  notice with the frozen-tree link.
- The K9 methodology guard loses its three checks on the deleted files;
  a guard aimed at an absent file is a false check. nickel typecheck
  passes on the edited guard; a truncated mutant fails.

The prose mentions elsewhere (wiki, TOPOLOGY, QUICKSTART, CLAUDE.md)
are history or cross-repo and are left for the .deed conversion
tracked in rsr-template-repo#209.
