QA-authored proposal opening G5 collective close planning.
Inherits 5 forward-carries from T4d closure §I as G5 scope:
- m01 hardware first-light for replicated write path
- Multi-replica concurrent live + recovery scenarios
- G5-DECISION-001 resolution (Path A persist vs Path B rebuild)
- walstore flusher cadence verification + tuning policy
- Minimal metrics/backpressure assessment
5-batch shape proposed:
- G5-1 multi-replica scenarios (component) — QA + sw framework
- G5-2 walstore cadence verification — sw + architect
- G5-3 metrics/backpressure assessment — sw + architect
- G5-4 m01 hardware L3 first-light — QA + sw
- G5-5 G5-DECISION-001 resolution + closure report — architect + sw + QA
QA recommendations:
- G5-DECISION-001: Path B (rebuild from probe after restart) for
MVP scope. T4d-4 part B already structurally enables (ReplicaState
JSON-clean per TestG5Decision001_*); production restarts rare;
Path A's persistence work substantial. Backwards-compatible
upgrade later if production usage proves Path B insufficient.
- G5-5 timing at close (after G5-1/2/3/4 evidence informs decision)
- §2.2 explicit non-claims to prevent G5 scope creep:
* CARRY-T4D-LANE-CONTEXT-001 → post-G5 hardening backlog
* --durable-walsize CLI flag → post-G5
* Snapshot-based catch-up → post-G5
* Wire protocol versioning → post-G5
* Auth/encryption/mTLS → post-G5
Status: ⏸ DRAFT — awaiting architect ratification on §2 scope +
§3 batch shape + §4 acceptance bar + §5 G5-DECISION-001 path.
No G5 code work begins until ratified.

V2 Design
This directory currently contains both the active V2 design canon and a large set of working notes, migration packs, and historical comparison material.
Use this README as the navigation layer. If a document is not listed under
Core Canon, treat it as supporting or historical context rather than the
current source of truth.
Core Canon
These are the documents that define the current V2 model and should be read first.
v2-protocol-truths.md— the stable semantic rulesv2-sync-recovery-protocol.md— sync, keepup, catchup, and rebuild protocol meaningv2-rebuild-mvp-session-protocol.md— rebuild session contract and data/control lanesv2-automata-ownership-map.md— assignment, session, and projection ownershipv2-protocol-claim-and-evidence.md— claims and current proof posturev2-validation-matrix.md—Rebuild Ready,Restore Ready, andV2 Readygatesv2-capability-map.md— capability-to-proof-tier mappingv2-proof-and-retest-pyramid.md— proof layering and retest strategy
Implementation Guides
These help maintainers understand how the current model maps into code.

Validation And Rollout
These define how the active design is validated, staged, or operationalized.

Working Reference
These are still useful, but they are not the shortest route to the current truth.

Migration And Historical Working Set
These files are mostly valuable for reconstruction of design history, migration intent, or earlier prototype shapes. They should usually not be the first docs opened during current development.

Process
protocol-development-process.mdagent_dev_process.md
Cleanup Rule
When a document is superseded, prefer:
- keeping one canonical file in
Core Canon - leaving older reasoning in
Migration And Historical Working Set - avoiding duplicate "read first" lists across many files
Future cleanup should physically move or archive files only after their inbound references are reviewed.
Execution Note
- active development tracking lives under
../.private/phase/ - current phase contract and slice packages live there rather than in this directory
The original project-level copies under learn/projects/sw-block/design/
remain as shared references for now.
