Checkpoint - T1 FIX7 Spec-Artifact Focused Review And Correction Proposal

Date 2026-06-08. Author T1 (production Agent, Agent Data). Mode READ-ONLY production; KB report writes only. Execution mode AUTHOR_MODE_ONLY. Live mutation NO.

Final status: DESIGN_NEEDS_CODEX_CORRECTION_WITH_PROPOSALS

Focused adversarial review of Codex package codex-fix7-spec-artifact-publish-finalization-2026-06-07 (which claimed to resolve all 8 prior T1 corrections). Continues prior T1 verdict DESIGN_NEEDS_CODEX_CORRECTION_BEFORE_IMPLEMENTATION. Codex stays design owner; T1 stays independent reviewer; T1 wrote correction proposals, did NOT patch Codex docs.

Boundary held

No production DB/role/grant/trigger/function/scheduler/UI/REAL_RUN/permit/ledger/QT001-apply mutated. No DB objects created. No SQL applied. No manifest activated. No ownership/ACL change. No permit opened. Stage 2.6B not advanced. No Codex doc edited. Read path OPEN (all inputs read in full: 13 Codex artifacts, prior T1 go/no-go, both checkpoints, governing law 100000x v1.3; index via search).

Supertrack verdicts

• A correction matrix: 4 VERIFIED (C04 bypass, C06 Level-B, C07 dashboard, C08 same-human), 4 PARTIAL (C01 27-DDL, C02 gates, C03 hashes, C05 Directus). 0 STILL_GAP, 0 CONFLICT.
• B 27-child DDL: DDL_SPEC_NEEDS_CORRECTION (count 27 PASS; byte-level DDL deferred to unsurfaced artifact; inter-manifest FKs / code_catalog root / typed-operand CHECK unspecified).
• C 14 gates: READINESS_GATES_NEED_CORRECTION (set/formula/freshness/both-EXCEPT/no-bool_and-alone strong; threshold-seal gap).
• D 7 hashes: HASH_KEYMAPS_NEED_CORRECTION (domains/keys/DAG/sensitivity strong; bytea->text encoding unpinned -> non-deterministic).
• E 14 bypass: BYPASS_VECTORS_VERIFIED.
• F Directus: DIRECTUS_CUTOVER_NEED_CORRECTION (fail-closed/rollback-safe; base-table-vs-view read preservation ambiguous).
• G Level-B: LEVEL_B_PACKET_VERIFIED.
• H dashboard: SELF_AUDIT_DASHBOARD_VERIFIED.
• I same-human: SAME_HUMAN_CONTROL_VERIFIED.
• J zero-hardcode: DISGUISED_HARDCODE_RISK (not FAIL; risks = code_catalog root, threshold literals, hash determinism, contract-vs-byte-level DDL).
• K PG-native: PG_NATIVE_DRIVEN_NEEDS_CORRECTION (every subsystem PG-native; one root gap = code_catalog seal).
• L feasibility/scale: FEASIBILITY_SCALE_VERIFIED (PG16.13+pgcrypto; control-plane-bounded; advisory retention only).

Correction proposals: 9 total (7 blocking, 2 advisory)

Blocking: CP-01 surface byte-level 27-table DDL or accept downscope+mandatory re-audit; CP-02 inter-manifest FK targets; CP-03 bootstrap code_catalog DDL+seal+ownership; CP-04 typed-operand columns+CHECK; CP-05 seal gate/vector thresholds (no adapter numeric literal); CP-06 pin hash bytea encoding+array order+numeric form; CP-07 resolve Directus base-table-vs-view read path. Advisory: CP-08 registry/evidence placement+retention; CP-09 Level-B identity/reviewer manifest binding.

Not fail

No hardcode FAIL, no PG-native FAIL, no scale FAIL, not read-path-blocked. A genuine substantial advance (4/8 corrections fully met, design PG-native and scale-safe); the block is artifact-completeness / no-guess.

Hard block (unchanged)

No Stage 2.6B, no permit, no REAL_RUN, no QT001 apply. Readiness BLOCKED; scale NOT_SAFE-until-evidence; Level-B OPERATOR_REQUIRED_UNVERIFIED.

Codex resolves the 7 blocking proposals (or CP-01 path B with mandatory re-audit) -> republish -> short T1 re-review -> DESIGN_READY_FOR_CODEX_FINAL_APPROVAL -> Codex final approval. No implementation before that.
