# Checkpoint — "Finish everything" campaign, Stages A–G

**Campaign:** Tony Ha ("`aidoruao`") "finish everything" directive (Apr 19 2026).
**Scope:** 7-stage execution plan covering taxonomy, cleanup, YAML hygiene,
housekeeping, non-draft-PR review, civilizational polymath domains, and
DeepSeek bounded closure.
**Sessions:** 1 (Devin, https://app.devin.ai/sessions/36c540710d5c487ab6c5f61be5879aa3).

This file is the **resume-point contract** for the next AI instance (Devin,
Claude, or otherwise) that picks this campaign up. It is written to be
read-first, mechanically actionable, and byte-stable so hash anchors work.

## Stage ledger

| Stage | PR | Status | CI | Devin Review | Notes |
|-------|----|--------|----|--------------|-------|
| A — hashed investigative taxonomy + gap-analysis JSONL (6 namespaces) | [#141](https://github.com/aidoruao/orthogonal-engineering/pull/141) | Ready-to-merge | 32/32 green | Clean | ✅ |
| B — production `float(` + stub sweep | [#142](https://github.com/aidoruao/orthogonal-engineering/pull/142) | Ready-to-merge | 30/30 green | All items resolved | ✅ real bugs found + fixed: `kernel/commonwealth/sabbath.py` AttributeError, `d_graphics_reality.run_all_invariants` backward-compat, `d_necessity` KripkeFrame fixture, duplicate helper + unused imports, `ModalFormula.evaluate` stub, multiple `float()` call-sites |
| C — YAML frontmatter on every `.md` + CI enforcement | [#143](https://github.com/aidoruao/orthogonal-engineering/pull/143) | Ready-to-merge | 30/30 green | All items resolved incl. 🚩 | ✅ two previously empty frontmatter-only README files given body content in commit `0f66f72f` |
| D — housekeeping: close 14 stale Copilot draft PRs + 13 bot-noise issues | — | **NOT STARTED** | — | — | Resume target |
| E — review/rebase/advance 3 non-draft PRs (#91, #85, #26) | — | **NOT STARTED** | — | — | Resume target |

## Session-ending state (Apr 19 2026, ≈02:00 UTC)

- **User quota at checkpoint:** 87% daily / 50% weekly / -$0.24 on-demand.
That drove the decision to halt after Stage G instead of continuing into
Stage D.
- **Last commit on Stage G branch** (`devin/1776658119-stage-g-deepseek-bounded-closure`):
`f68f96a0` — "stage-g: address Devin Review — strict non-dict rejection,
None-safe validators, accurate docstring".
- **Last commit on Stage C branch** (`devin/1776656199-stage-c-yaml-frontmatter`):
`0f66f72f` — "stage-c: add body content to two previously empty
frontmatter-only .md files".

## Exact resume commands — Stage D

Stage D is **bounded and mechanical**; do not expand scope. It closes
stale artifacts with rationale, it does not touch code.

```bash
# List the 14 stale Copilot draft PRs to close with rationale:
# #102, #99, #96, #93, #92, #90, #64, #56, #55, #54, #53, #52, #20, #3
#
# For each one, post a close comment that:
# - cites the current date
# - notes that the repo has moved past the draft's design assumptions
# (see PRs #118, #140, and the Stage A/B/C/F/G PRs above)
# - links the replacing work
# - closes without merging
#
# Then close the 13 auto-generated "Mathematical weight detected" bot issues
# with a one-line rationale linking to the gap-analysis taxonomy in PR #141
# (those issues were never human-authored and the taxonomy replaces their role).
```

Use `git(action="view_pr", ...)` to read each draft's current state before
closing; some were last touched months ago and may reference files that
no longer exist.

## Exact resume commands — Stage E

Stage E is **higher-risk** and requires judgment. The 3 non-draft PRs are:

- **#91 — Vulkan ontology.** Last human touch pre-dates Stage F. Rebase onto
current `main` and either get CI green + review-ready or close with a
follow-up issue capturing the idea.
- **#85 — Testing skill.** Should be re-evaluated in light of the
`SKILL.md` patterns now in `.agents/skills/` (if present) — the work
may already be subsumed.
- **#26 — PR26 verification.** Oldest of the three. Read the description
carefully before touching; may need to be closed as historical artifact.

For each PR, follow the sequence:
1. `git(action="view_pr", repo="aidoruao/orthogonal-engineering", pull_number=N)`
2. Fetch branch, attempt `git rebase origin/main`.
3. If rebase clean: run the repo's verification quartet
(`pytest tests/ -q`, `python tools/standards_check.py --verify`,
`python audit/popperian_audit.py 2>&1 | tail -3`,
`python tools/state_witness/generate_feed_entry.py --verify`).
4. If all green: `git push --force-with-lease` and hand to Tony for merge.
5. If not salvageable: post a close comment explaining why, link the
successor work if any, and close without merge.

## Open threads (not blocking)

- **STANDARDS_REGISTRY.json AF-001 duplicate `description` key.** Pre-
existing on `main` — `\u00a7` encoded and literal `§` both present;
Python's `json.load` silently takes the last value. Out of scope for
every stage above; schedule a one-line PR when convenient.
- **Nested-venv exclusion pattern in frontmatter audit.** Top-level
`venv/` only, by design; widen to `**/venv/` only if a legitimate
nested-venv case emerges.
- **`_all_catalogs()` re-loads on every invariant.** Accepted inefficiency
at 40-entry scale. Introduce optional `pre_loaded=` kwarg if it ever
shows up in a benchmark.

## How continuity-of-body actually works in this repo

For any AI session joining this campaign, the primitives are already in
place:

1. **`MEMORY.md`** — durable architectural constraints (not session state).
Read first.
2. **`AGENT_FEED.md`** — append-only hash-chained ledger. Verify with
`python tools/state_witness/generate_feed_entry.py --verify`. Never
delete rows.
3. **`consent_log/`** — append-only consent ledger. Append per
`.cursorrules`/`CLAUDE.md` before kernel-surface changes.
4. **This file** (`CHECKPOINT_STAGES_A_THROUGH_G.md`) — the missing
per-campaign resume-point; update in place (not append-only) each
time a stage transitions.

Before taking any action in a resumed session:

```bash
git status # clean
python tools/state_witness/generate_feed_entry.py --verify # feed intact
python tools/standards_check.py --verify # standards OK
python audit/popperian_audit.py 2>&1 | tail -3 # audit passes
pytest tests/ -q # full suite
```

If any of the five fails, **do not start new work** — reconcile first.

## Session identity

- **Requester:** Tony Ha (`aidoruao`, aidoruao@gmail.com).
- **Repo root on VM (this session):** `/home/ubuntu/repos/orthogonal-engineering`
(also mirrored at `/home/ubuntu/work/oe-stagec` — Stage C worktree used
for the empty-README fix).
- **Consent-log candidate-id prefix used in this campaign:**
`devin-20260419-stage-<X>`.

📝 Info: Pre-existing duplicate description key in AF-001 remains unfixed

The STANDARDS_REGISTRY.json file still contains a duplicate description key in the AF-001 standard entry at lines 569-570. One uses \u00a7 encoding and the other uses a literal § character. Python's json.load silently takes the last value, so no parse error occurs, but it's technically non-conformant JSON. The checkpoint file (CHECKPOINT_STAGES_A_THROUGH_G.md:93-96) explicitly acknowledges this as an out-of-scope issue and defers it to a future one-line PR, so it's intentionally not addressed here.

Correct — the AF-001 description duplicate (\u00a7 vs §) is intentionally deferred. The checkpoint file logs it in "Open threads (not blocking)" precisely so the next session doesn't have to re-derive that context. Will ship as a dedicated single-line registry-hygiene PR, not piggy-backed on this checkpoint.

📝 Info: Consent log scope_glob covers only the checkpoint file, not STANDARDS_REGISTRY.json

The new consent log entry at pr47_stewardship/witness/consent_log.jsonl:66 has scope_glob set to CHECKPOINT_STAGES_A_THROUGH_G.md, but the PR also modifies STANDARDS_REGISTRY.json. Per CLAUDE.md, consent is mandatory specifically for kernel surface paths (.github/workflows/**, automation/**, yeshua/**, axioms/**, pr47_stewardship/**, onboarding/**). STANDARDS_REGISTRY.json is not in that list, so this is not technically a violation, but it does mean the consent entry doesn't fully describe the PR's scope of changes.

Accurate read. Consent is only mandatory for the kernel-surface paths enumerated in CLAUDE.md (.github/workflows/**, automation/**, yeshua/**, axioms/**, pr47_stewardship/**, onboarding/**); STANDARDS_REGISTRY.json is outside that set, so not a policy violation. For completeness of audit trail I could have widened scope_glob to "CHECKPOINT_STAGES_A_THROUGH_G.md,STANDARDS_REGISTRY.json". Noted for future consent entries — when multiple files change in the same commit, include them all in scope_glob even if only one triggers the mandate.
