§11 layer declarations — amendment set and estate closure

Goal

Land the five §11/§4/§3 amendments that GH-DEC-2026-017 and GH-DEC-2026-018 produce, into the proposed v0.8 cut before the acceptance flip, and close the estate-side items the two rulings create. GH-DEC-2026-019 holds the flip on this workplan and states three closing conditions.

Normative text for A9–A13 is drafted at docs/amendments/v0.8-section-11-declaration-amendments.md. That file is the reviewable unit: each amendment carries its own wording, defect statement, and authority, so it can be argued before anything touches the cut.

Why now

access-engine's boundaries review (FLEX-WP-0030) found five §11 defects from outside, after the v0.8 round closed, in the section audit-core was asked to attack and did not return a review on. One of them — A10's — is gate-house's own amendment A2, written twelve days ago and reviewed twice without anyone noticing it named a §4 property §4 does not carry.

v0.7 stays accepted and in force, unpatched. Nothing operational waits on this; the cost of the hold is documentation currency, which is what makes it affordable (GH-DEC-2026-019 §3).

Tasks

T01 — A9: state the §3 vocabulary once, as tokens

Four tokens, closed, case-insensitive comparison, Engine not Engines, role is not layer. Resolves the §3-versus-§4 divergence that makes two faithful runs disagree about eight rows.

T02 — A10: §4 gains an evidence-source marking; §11's check reads the marking

Includes the per-event-class clause and the count repair. Then assess the remaining §4 rows repository by repository — access-engine is marked by GH-DEC-2026-018 §2; the others are asked, not assigned.

T04 — A12: a declaration carries no standard version

Includes asking ops-warden to drop standard_version from the reference form rather than each of the seven adopters deciding separately.

T05 — A13: the access-engine coordinate is pending, not broken

One line in §4. No gate-house ruling required; substance already ruled in the owning repository under FLEX-WP-0020.

T06 — Ask informed-decision whether it should become a §4 catalog row

Asked, not enrolled. Its correction from surface to Staff/pep-shaped is its own and is not a condition of this task.

T07 — Closing condition 2: audit-core returns its §11 review or declines in writing

A written decline closes it. §14 records not claimed rather than counting silence as assent, and the point is that the record says which.

T08 — Closing condition 3: key-cape, ops-mason, net-kingdom declare or record a dated gap

gate-house's own is discharged (GH-DEC-2026-017 §6, this commit). A declaration or a dated gap satisfies this equally; conformance is not the condition.

T09 — Circulate A9–A13 for assent and disposition the returns

Round list: net-kingdom (publisher), access-engine, audit-core, approval-engine, ops-warden, kings-guard, plus informed-decision and railiance-master as the two repositories the vocabulary ruling touches from outside §4.

T10 — net-kingdom assembles the amendments into the v0.8 cut and flips acceptance

Publication and the flip are net-kingdom's and were handed over at v0.8 round close. This task tracks the handoff, not the execution.

Done when

All five amendments are in the v0.8 cut, the three GH-DEC-2026-019 closing conditions are met, and net-kingdom has flipped v0.8 to accepted.
