T03: InnerLoop v1.7 plus loop-lint's own-cost check. Six passes
under-reported themselves by 30-45%, never once high, and the rule lived
only in evidence files having been re-derived three times. The READING
is load bearing, not the boundary: CB-WP-0018 T04 applied 're-run the
instrument at the moment of quoting' alone and its figure was correct.
So the operative instruction is re-run when you quote, and loop-lint
fails an evidence file naming its own workplan beside a dollar amount
without marking it provisional.
It binds forward from this pass. The check fires on seven historical
files which ARE the evidence for the rule; making them comply would edit
the record to remove the thing it proves -- the same category error as a
live fact: tag on a dated measurement, which this pass also hit.
Lifecycle, at the maintainer's instruction: ready -> active -> done,
where ready means declared and not started. loop-lint fails a workplan
that has started and still says ready, one that is active with
everything closed, and one that is done with an open task. The first
version of that check was WRONG and its own self-test caught it: it
stripped the leading status: assuming frontmatter, which silently
dropped a real task once the frontmatter said ready or active.
Both new checks then fired on this pass's own artifacts and both were
right to.
T04: CB-EV-0017. The new meta budget's first reading is a breach it
caused -- 27% against the 20% line, because this pass cost $31.18
against product passes averaging ~$21. Reported rather than exempted:
ADR-0006 D2 covers the instrument repairs but not the rule-writing, and
the honest reading is that this should have been two passes.
CB-WP-0018 settled at $36.53/95 against $28.08/82 last reported, 30%
higher. Seven for seven.

The two AM-4 budgets had the SAME scope -- one package, no dev edges --
while claiming to bound different things. AM-4b now measures the
workspace with dev edges: 57 crates / 725,258 lines where it read 29 /
317,021, having been blind to 28 crates and 408,237 lines, more source
than its own target.
Target 745,000, ~2.7% of room -- the same margin ADR-0008 D3 gave AM-4a,
applied to a number that grew because the instrument was repaired, not
because anything was added. The target moved to fit the measurement.
T02: proc-macros are COUNTED here and excluded from AM-4a, on purpose.
AM-4a asks what ships and a proc-macro never ships. AM-4b asks what is
acquired, and ADR-0007 D3's acquisition rule counts what the build
fetches -- 'it does not ship' is no answer to 'we downloaded it'. When
the rules disagree, the question each budget asks decides. Measured
share 109,585 lines / 15.1% against AM-4a's 36.2%, so ADR-0008 D2's
refusal to borrow the ratio was right by more than a factor of two.
Caught by this project's own earlier work twice: the mutation
find-string went stale and --self-test reported it BUILD-FREE (the check
CB-WP-0015 added after AM-4a's rotted for two passes), then the DFD gate
caught facts.toml carrying the old numbers.
CB-EV-0001 and ADR-0004 carried live fact: tags on historical readings.
A dated record asserting a CURRENT value is a category error, so those
occurrences are marked as-measured instead of retro-edited, and ADR-0004
gains a supersession note.

InnerLoop v1.7. The purpose is written first and the number follows from
it: most spend on the task at hand, some on control, review and
improving the process. make status prints it above the figure, because a
threshold with no stated purpose is what let this number be argued three
times.
Soft 20% over a trailing 5, and the self-test enforces that the ratio and
the window are a PAIR: META_SOFT_PCT == 100 / TRAILING_PASSES. One meta
pass among n at parity cost reads 1/n, so 80/20 is one pass in five at
normal cost -- a five-pass window. The same 20% over three would have
silently also demanded the meta pass be half-price, which makes meta work
rushed rather than rare. Moving the ratio without the window goes red.
The phase setting is declared, argued and expiring in gates.toml, and
reverts on review_by unless re-argued. Verified live at 35%. One with no
reason or no expiry is refused rather than honoured, because a threshold
anyone may move is not a threshold.
Measured: the last five passes read 7% against the new line.
InnerLoop.md crossed the 400-line limit three times while this was
written and was fixed structurally each time -- the arithmetic, the
cost-per-response basis and the two review case studies moved to
InnerLoopReference.md. The limit was not raised.

The maintainer asked for a rule for what the budget is FOR: main spend on
the task at hand, some on control, review and improvement, 80/20 to
start, adjustable by phase.
META-25 has a threshold and no stated purpose, which is why the number
has been argued three times. The purpose goes first.
Recorded in the task: the ratio and the window are a pair. Over a
trailing 3-pass window one meta pass at parity cost is already 33%, so a
20% line there means 'one in five AND half price' rather than 'one in
five'. Over trailing 5, 20% is exactly one pass in five at normal cost,
which is the literal reading of the instruction.
The phase adjustment must be declared, argued and expiring in the shape
gates.toml already uses -- a threshold anyone may move is not a
threshold, and this project fixes limits structurally rather than
raising them.

Both owed numbers measured BEFORE declaring, so the work is scoped
against facts. AM-4b's scope: 29 crates / 317,021 lines instrumented
against 57 / 725,258 real, so 28 crates and 408,237 lines are uncounted
-- more than its own 350,000 target. AM-4b's proc-macro share: 109,585
lines, 15.1%.
That 15.1% vindicates ADR-0008 D2, which refused to correct AM-4b using
AM-4a's measured 36.2% because 'correcting a second instrument on the
strength of the first one's ratio is the error this change exists to
fix'. Borrowing would have been wrong by more than a factor of two.
Also carries the self-quoting rule, which is six-for-six under-reported
by never less than 30% with both causes diagnosed, and still lives only
in evidence files.
Structural tier M: changes a budget's scope and target and a reporting
rule. Chaos d8=5, no override -- the first roll at the new rate.
Declaration 2 of window 2. Meta budget 0%; ADR-0006 D2 exempts
instrument repair regardless.
