VERDICT

DOT_MANAGE_LEGO_TRANSITION_SURVEY_COMPLETE_FOR_C1_DRYRUN

The transition survey and planning macro is COMPLETE. This verdict means the survey/plan succeeded — NOT that C1 is dry-run-ready. C1 is not ready; the survey's finding is that one operator-only capability gate stands between the current state and a governed dry-run, and the plan to cross it is complete.

Stop state

Not a failure stop. The macro reached its target state. The system as a whole remains at the standing C1 stop: a governed dry-run cannot run until the operator grants the Gate-B build-prep capability (09 P0).

Posture

• REGISTRATION_HOLD: ACTIVE (no governed registration performed; survey + KB docs only).
• REGISTRATION_CAN_PROCEED: NO (requires operator Gate-B capability + Owner Phase-2 open).
• P2 / named-lane: CLOSED — not opened by this macro. This macro produces the plan a future execution macro / Phase 2 would follow.
• Governed-runtime mutations: 0. Subagents used: 4 (read-only discovery only). KB writes: this package + rollup + 1 addendum + 1 README pointer (all additive).

What the survey establishes (the §6 final-report fields)

• DOT manage sources read: core handbook (rev12) + README + legacy copy + 9a0 reports; birth/governance architecture packages; Macro-9 specs/admission/reports; four C1 packages + Codex review; live read-only probes. (01)
• DOT registry/catalog state: dot_tools=309 (CAT-006 active, 309↔163 drift), dot_agent_api_contract=2 (KG only), table_registry=21, gates CLOSED, OSPA=0, ownership=0, C1 absent everywhere. (02)
• Macro-9 staging path state: DOT_R2_B2_STAGING_SCHEMA_SHELL authored/engineering-admitted, REGISTRATION_HOLD; pure validator (no DB I/O); R2-B2-name-scoped; reusable as the REAL_RUN sandbox template, not a dry-run prerequisite; hardening GAPs 2/3/4 open. (04)
• Existing DOTs reusable: DOT_COLLECTION_REGISTER, DOT_SCHEMA_TABLE_REGISTRY_ENSURE, dot-catalog-sync, retire DOTs, the DOT_KG_EXPLAIN/_VERIFY+preflight precedent, fn_process_agent_api_dispatch, lawful registrar dot-dot-register. (05)
• DOTs needing repair/adaptation: DOT-062 dot-rollback (extend); schema-ensure family (instantiate C1); Macro-9 shell (fork for REAL_RUN); the live registry's missing freeze flag (repair). (05,06)
• Forbidden/frozen DOTs: the 3 KB-frozen birth DOTs + the manual lanes — none reused. (06)
• Missing DOTs: DOT_C1_SCHEMA_ENSURE, DOT_C1_VOCAB_BUILD (incl. R_C1), DOT_C1_VOCAB_VERIFY, DOT_C1_PREFLIGHT, DOT_C1_BAD_INPUT_HARNESS, DOT_C1_EVIDENCE_READBACK — all have an existing birth path. (05,07)
• DOT manage updates applied: transition-status addendum (rev1) + README pointer (rev2) + this package + rollup. (08)
• Operator actions: grant Gate-B capability + creds; create C1 collection; register C1 contracts via lawful registrar; mint grant + ownership; reflect §13 freeze into the live registry; (REAL_RUN-deferred) gate flips + GAPs 2/3/4. (08,09)
• One-shot plan to C1 dry-run readiness: 09 (8 phases, all prerequisites closed).
• Internal Codex negative review: PASS, 0/11 attacks succeed, residuals disclosed. (10)

Next step: EXECUTION macro, not further survey

The basics are now established and recorded; a further survey would rediscover them. The next action is the EXECUTION macro beginning at 09 P0 (operator grants Gate-B capability), then P1–P7 to a governed DRY_RUN and Codex confirmation of C1_GOVERNED_DRYRUN_READY. If P0 is not granted, the system correctly remains at the current HOLD.

Residual / follow-on macro

If execution surfaces issues beyond this survey's scope (e.g. composite-PK/write-once creation primitive choice, executor liveness, REAL_RUN hardening), open DOT-MANAGE-LEGO-TRANSITION-FOR-C1-DRYRUN-PATCH1.

---

One-line truths carried forward: survey-complete ≠ C1-ready; authorization ≠ capability; sandbox-logic ≠ governed-registration; reuse-first before any new DOT; no frozen/forbidden DOT reused; every new DOT admitted (no orphan); DOT-only (no manual lane); engineering PASS ≠ Owner authority PASS; default HOLD.
