Macro-4 No-Production-Touch Before/After Snapshot — R2-B2 (2026-06-19)

Date: 2026-06-19 · Workstream: R2-B2-MACRO-4-STAGING-WORKBENCH-IO-CONTRACT-TD-ENTRY-GATE-2026-06-19 (Deliverable 44 of 90) · Editorial revision: rev1 Class: before/after snapshot spec · READ-ONLY · NON-ENACTING · NON-AUTHORIZING · NO write performed.

Metadata convention. Editorial revision (rev1) only. Storage revision/content_length authoritative at read time.


0. Status and non-authorization

STATUS: PASS — engineering / design-only. The before/after production snapshot a future B2 run must bracket itself with. Engineering PASS ≠ authority PASS. Default: HOLD.

1. Purpose

Define the exact production quantities a snapshot must capture and prove unchanged.

2. Sources / evidence read

Pilot-slice staging IO contract §11; bad-input/delete-fast plan §10; FRESH read-only runtime (this session). Main process, no reader-agents.

3. Accepted baseline (carried)

The no-touch proof is a before/after comparison of production counts/checksums plus staging evidence.

4. Evidence / analysis — snapshot quantities (FRESH baseline, 2026-06-19, read-only)

Quantity FRESH value (this session) Must be unchanged by a run
birth_registry total / certified / uncertified 1,213,202 / 1,402 / 1,211,800 yes
uncertified rows with any inspect_* 0 yes
certified set all 1,402 in 2026-03-21 batch (distinct cert-days=1) yes
universal_edges / provenance 2,199 / 0 yes
governance_object_ownership 0 yes
event_outbox 215,609 (no birth/certify event added)
canonical_address/owner populated 0 (unused) yes

5. Contract / requirement / matrix / result

A future B2 run is no-touch only if every quantity above is byte/count-identical before and after (the workbench grows the backlog naturally via live births, but a run must add no certify/inspect/canonical/KG/ownership change). This is a spec; no run or comparison is performed here — the FRESH values are this session's read-only baseline.

6. Owner-gated future work

Running the snapshot/comparison is Owner-gated; forbidden now.

7. What remains unresolved

The checksum mechanism (beyond counts) is FUTURE_TECHNICAL_DESIGN_REQUIRED.

8. Ready for GPT/Codex review

Yes — Codex should confirm the snapshot captures all production-touch-sensitive quantities.
