📝 docs(logs): wave 37, the gate and its checker - #65
Conversation
The `rfc-index` gate carried out of wave 36, ruled B-then-D by the author: fix the checker in the repository that owns it, then take the mechanical win. B landed upstream; D was almost entirely subsumed by it, and the log records that rather than manufacturing work to fill the plan's shape. Drift count 1, against RFC 0030: its decision table was written with a real Grade column holding `OPEN`, and answering its questions overwrote four grades in place. The old checker could not report it — reading the grade from column two, a destroyed grade and an absent one produced the same message. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Five was read off a `git log -5` run to answer whether the file had ever been re-synced. It had; the `-5` was a display limit, and it travelled with the number into a sentence that needed a count. Measured: 9 sync commits, 8 touching rfc-writer, 4 touching rfc_index.py itself. Appended rather than edited, per this collection's own practice. The claim it supported is stronger for the correction. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

User description
Summary
Wave 37 executed the
rfc-indexgate carried out of wave 36. It ships onefile — the wave's execution log — because the work it records happened in the
repository that owns the checker, and because the half of the plan that was
meant to happen here turned out not to be needed.
The gate's checker had two defects, both found by running it against this
collection: it read fenced code blocks as markup, and it found the
Gradecolumn by position. Both are fixed in
morzecrew/agent-skills#13,
merged. They are not fixed here, and deliberately so —
skills-lock.jsonnames that repository as the source of
rfc-writer, so an edit here is revertedby the next routine sync. This repository has 9 such sync commits, 4 of which
rewrote
rfc_index.pyitself.Closes #
RFC: none — this is an execution log against the whole collection, not a design.
What the gate now reports
32 problems → 27. The three "broken links" in RFC 0019 were false positives
(a Go generic signature, and a fenced markdown sample whose links resolve from
the file it samples). RFCs 0023–0028 now pass unchanged: reading the column
by heading rather than index is what makes this repository's house style legal,
so the seven table rewrites the plan called for were never necessary. That they
pass on their merits was checked, not assumed — a grade in 0023 replaced with
PROBABLYis reported.The finding worth reading: RFC 0030's grades were destroyed
Drift count: 1. RFC 0030's decision table was written with a real
Gradecolumn —
git show 6d3752dhas four rows holding| OPEN |, and today's filehas none. Answering the questions overwrote the grades in place, one careful
edit at a time, into the only column that looked like it was for answers. The
table still reads as well-maintained; the header is now the only evidence the
column ever held a grade.
The old checker could not report this. Reading cell two, a destroyed grade
and an absent one produced the same message, so it hid behind 22 copies of a
boring one. RFC 0030 is not amended in this PR — which grade each of rows 1,
3, 4 and 5 takes is the author's call, and the log proposes rather than writes.
Type
Design
No RFC is amended. That is the point of the log: proposals go to the author,
and an RFC edited to match what was built stops recording that a decision ever
changed.
Lifecycle invariants
Not applicable — no product code changes. The diff is one file under
logs/,which nothing reads at runtime.
Compatibility

Verification
just cigreenWhat I ran and what it proved:
just ci— green, 86.6% statement coverage against an 84% floor.just log-check—logs/wave-37.md: 0 problems. Then sabotaged three ways toprove it is genuinely checked: understating the drift count, an illegal
grade/actionpair, and evidence replaced by a sentence. Each fails; eachrestored clean.
just acceptance-cover— acceptance passed.just test-docker -count=1— green,test/suite174.6s. Forced freshbecause the cached run would have been a valid pass reported as a run.
Risk & rollback
None to a live installation. The diff adds one file under
logs/; nobinary, schema, unit, or documented surface changes. Reverting is deleting a
file.
The real risk is one this PR cannot remove: the gate is still not wired into
ci, and this PR says why rather than wiring it red. 22 RFCs carry 354ungraded decision rows, deferred as a unit of its own.
log-check, wired inwave 36, went green the day it was wired; a gate committed red is a gate whose
first job is to be switched off.
Note on ordering
The log's Carried section says the upstream fix is unmerged. It was, when
written; agent-skills#13 has since merged. The log is append-only and is left as
written. Syncing the fixed checker into this repository is wave 38's first
item, not this PR's — and it should not land before this, since this is the
record of why the sync is wanted.
Summary by cubic
Adds
logs/wave-37.md, the execution log for therfc-indexgate, and explains upstream checker fixes and their impact. Old checker misparsed code fences and assumed the Grade column’s position; the fixed checker respects code fences and finds Grade by heading, reducing problems 32→27, removing RFC 0019 false positives, and surfacing real drift in RFC 0030.skills-lock.jsonsourcesrfc-writerfrommorzecrew/agent-skills. Sync of the fix will follow.rfc-indexout ofcifor now; the gate still fails on 27 problems.Written for commit b5a80fc. Summary will update on new commits.
