Two activity definitions, in the shape activity-core's own definitions use. hourly-register-inbox-watch fires only when an unread message waits for risk-nexus — the inbox is the trigger rather than the clock, because an unread message is by construction a claim that something may have moved, and 2026-08-19 proved the register will otherwise grade without looking. daily-register-check-sweep is the unconditional floor at 07:15. Both emit an instruction to a session that can exercise judgement, and both say in their own text that they must never grow the ability to record an outcome: stamping clean without doing the five questions produces a 1q rung that is a lie about stability. RISK-WP-0004 is finished. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Daily Register Check Sweep
Runs daily at 07:15 Berlin time, before the working day, and unconditionally.
Why a floor exists at all
The cadence ladder is self-pacing: a finding that keeps coming back clean is
checked less often, up to a quarterly ceiling. That works only if something
performs checks. RISK-WP-0004-T01 recorded the honest state — the procedure
and the tooling existed, and nothing ran them, so every finding sat at
instant and the ladder was decoration.
This is the floor. It does not decide what is due; make due does that from
the findings' own front-matter. It guarantees that the question is asked once a
day whether or not anyone remembers to ask it.
The work this instruction stands for
Per docs/method/check-procedure.md, for each finding make due lists:
- read anything the inbox has said about it (question zero);
- is the grade still right;
- is every stated blocker still true — a blocker is a claim about the world at a date;
- has the fix moved, read from the owner's record rather than from memory;
- is the disclosure state still right.
Then make checked ARGS="<id> clean" or "<id> moved '<what changed>'", and
make register. A check that is not written down did not happen.
The one thing that must not happen
Stamping clean without doing those five. It costs nothing and produces a
1q rung that is a lie about stability — the RISK-F-0002 failure mode (a
control that produces a false record is worse than no control) turned on this
register's own instruments. clean_streak is in the register partly so that a
suspiciously smooth climb is visible.
This activity therefore emits an instruction to a session that can exercise judgement. It does not, and must not, grow the ability to record outcomes itself.

description: >-
Run `make due` in risk-nexus, then work each listed finding through the five
questions in docs/method/check-procedure.md and record the outcome with
`make checked`. Findings at the `instant` rung are due immediately; the
ladder climbs only on a clean check. Escalate only what
docs/method/escalation.md says to escalate, batched into one operator
conversation. If nothing is due, that is a complete run and worth nothing
further.
