Summary

  • Tree builder now produces engine.Graph directly — no intermediate tree.Node type or bridge layer
  • Removed internal/writ/exec/ entirely (replaced by internal/engine/)
  • Extracted identity loading to internal/writ/identity/
  • commands.go uses engine.New() + engine.Run() for deployment execution
  • Added .sops extension support to ProcessingPipeline
  • All tests pass, build clean

Test plan

  • go build ./... passes
  • go test ./... — all tests pass
  • go vet ./... — no issues
  • Manual: writ add against a real dotfiles repo

The tree builder now produces engine.Graph directly (no intermediate
types). The exec package is removed — all operations are dispatched
through the shared execution engine. Identity loading extracted to
internal/writ/identity/.

Complete the resource management epic: Phases 9, 10, 11, Phase 5g fix,
design document updates, housekeeping.

## Phase Status

| Phase | Description | Status |
|-------|-------------|--------|
| 0 | Test harness (star devlore test) | ~85% done (#164, #170, #171) |
| 1 | ResourceCatalog (append-only ledger + URI→ID namespace) | Done |
| 2 | Graph integration (Catalog field, FillSlot implicit edges) | Done |
| 3 | File provider migration (all methods accept Resource) | Done |
| 4 | Type system (Resource/Tombstone sealed interfaces, ResourceBase) | Done |
| 5 | Executor catalog integration (shadow/resolve, pre-flight) | Done |
| 6 | Provider context (ProviderBase, git/service/pkg Resource types) | Done |
| 7 | Remaining provider migration (all providers, coerceSlice) | Done |
| 8 | Generated bridge tests (actions_gen_test.go via star codegen) | Done |
| 9 | Resource lifecycle — Decision #10 (infallible constructors) | Done |
| 10 | Purl package URIs — Decision #11 (ECMA-427 for pkg.Resource) | Done |
| 11 | Action interface unification (three types, unified Do) | Done |

## Phase 9: Infallible constructors (Decision #10)

- file.NewResource returns Resource (no error, no I/O)
- Resolve() on Resource interface; ResourceBase default is no-op
- file.Resource.Resolve() does filepath.Abs + os.Stat
- git.Resource.Resolve() does filepath.Abs
- Refresh() and RefreshWith() replace RefreshMetadata/RefreshMetadataWith
- Single constructor registry (planTimeConstructorRegistry eliminated)
- Path() returns raw path before Resolve(), absolute path after

## Phase 10: Purl package URIs (Decision #11)

- Type, Version fields on pkg.Resource
- Host() returns Type as URI authority (pkg://brew/jq)
- Purl() method returns canonical purl (pkg:brew/[email protected])
- Winget namespace handling (Microsoft.VSCode → pkg:winget/Microsoft/VSCode)
- NewResource() and NewTypedResource() constructors
- Type propagated from resolved manager in Install/Remove/Upgrade

## Phase 11: Action interface unification

- Three action types: Action (pure), FallibleAction, CompensableAction
- Unified Do(ctx, slots) → (Result, Complement, error) across all types
- Complement type replaces former undo state type throughout
- DoAction() type-switch dispatcher eliminated
- reflectedPureAction/reflectedFallibleAction/reflectedCompensableAction
  with shared actionBase (coerceArgs, dryRunLog, Params)
- classifyActionReturn split into classifyFallibleReturn + classifyCompensableReturn
- validateSlotType for plan-time type checking
- Pure actions (file.name, file.parent, file.join) registered as graph nodes
- Codegen includes all action types in generated bridge tests
- Flow actions (Choose, Gather, Elevate, WaitUntil) gain Params()

## Phase 5g fix

- shadowOutputParam guard: <2 → ==0 Resource params
- Single-Resource compensable methods now shadowed at plan time

## Other changes

- file.Exists/IsDir/IsFile return (bool, error) instead of bool
- Lore builder tests: packages param corrected to []string
- Architecture doc: Action Type Model section, expanded migration table
- Superseded drafts deleted (emergent-system-model, structural-deps, subscriber-model)
- Relocated strategy doc deleted (docs/01-strategy.md)

…queued plan)

Complete #9 with the automatic half of index update.

- driver.go: stalenessAware interface + driver.ensureFresh(), gating Install/Upgrade/Search/Available
  (never Remove/Installed/Version). A leaf is gated only when it is both a refresher and stalenessAware
  and its index age exceeds refreshTTL; refresh is best-effort (failure non-fatal).
- helpers.go: refreshTTL (24h knob), unknownIndexAge, indexAgeOf(path).
- linux_managers_linux.go: apt -> /var/lib/apt/lists mtime, pacman -> /var/lib/pacman/sync mtime. brew
  and dnf self-manage their freshness and port defers, so they are not stalenessAware (manual Update
  still force-refreshes all five). A successful refresh bumps the mtime, so a batch triggers one refresh.
- update_test.go: cross-platform gate tests (stale -> refresh, fresh -> skip, local ops -> no gate,
  index-consuming ops -> gate) via a fake rawDriver. pkg/platform green (gate mechanism + helpers run on
  macOS; apt/pacman indexAge bodies are _linux, CI-verified).

Docs: 3.4 verb-surface + status + pkg-install-reconciler now record #9 (manual force-refresh + the
automatic gate) implemented and tested.

Also queues the subgraph-result-flow concern as a plan: subgraph-result-flow.md (#10 investigate whether
subgraph executors toss results; #11 two verification tests, Go + Starlark, via flow.Provider.Completed),
referenced from 21-lore-migration.md.

Tree still red on out-of-scope consumers (#6 pkg/op/provider/pkg, cmd/writ); pkg/platform is green.

A subgraph run through the flow.subgraph verb threw away its children's output: dispatchWithRetry
(helpers.go) returned only an error, discarding DispatchChild's result, and flow.Provider.Subgraph
(provider.go) returned nil unconditionally. So a flow.subgraph-bound subgraph's terminal result never
reached GraphExecutor.Run. (#10 confirmed this; the structural op.Subgraph path, the executor, and
flow.Complete were already correct.)

Fix:
- helpers.go: dispatchWithRetry returns (any, error), capturing DispatchChild's result on the succeeding
  attempt (nil on cancel/exhaustion). This matches dispatchBodyChildren, which already returns `last`.
- provider.go: flow.Provider.Subgraph carries lastResult across the children loop and returns it instead
  of nil.

Tests (#11):
- result_flow_test.go: TestSubgraphBoundAction_FlowsLeafResult builds root → flow.subgraph subgraph →
  flow.complete leaf (output = sentinel), runs it, asserts Run returns the sentinel. RED before the fix
  (result = nil), GREEN after; logs the bubbled value. TestStructuralSubgraph_FlowsLeafResult is a control
  that passes throughout. integration_test.go's inventory import swapped to flow/gen to free the flow test
  binary from the #6-blocked inventory.
- result_flow_starlark_test.go: the Starlark mirror, t.Skip'd, gated on #12 (plan.Provider.Assemble nil-
  origin panic, an unrelated plan bug surfaced here).

TEMP mitigation: inventory.gen.go disables the provider/pkg/gen + provider/service/gen registrations (the
#6-broken packages) so the inventory + star build during the migration. Marked TEMP in-file; `make
generate` regenerates and restores them. The local build/star.lkg was refreshed off this state (reduced:
no pkg/service providers).

flow tests green; tree still red on out-of-scope consumers (#6).

….subgraph

Foundation (steps 1-2) of the unify-subgraph-execution plan. The root stops being a structural special
case: it is built by NewSubgraph from a shared spec and runs through flow.subgraph like any subgraph.

- executable_unit.go: actionName field + ActionName()/setActionName; ExecutableUnitSpec.WithActionNamed,
  which validates the name against the global receiver registry and PANICS if unannounced (fail-loud, the
  earliest announcement guard) -- the fluent counterpart to WithAction(action). Universal pattern: hold a
  resolved action -> WithAction; hold only a name -> WithActionNamed.
- node.go / subgraph.go: NewNode/NewSubgraph accept action-by-name; Execute resolves the name lazily at
  dispatch via RuntimeEnvironment.ActionByName (resolved action wins; both-empty falls through to the
  still-present structural path).
- subgraph.go: NewRootSubgraphSpec() names flow.subgraph; newRootSubgraph removed.
- graph.go / dependencyview.go / load.go: build the root via NewSubgraph + the shared root spec.
- receipt.go: Commit guards a nil Action() (by-name units) and stamps ActionName().
- flow_announce_test.go: announces flow into the pkg/op test binary (every graph now needs flow announced).

The action == nil structural path is kept as a fallback; deleting it (after auditing action-less
subgraphs) and converging the three child-walks are the remaining steps. pkg/op + flow tests green
(scoped; whole-tree build still red on #6). #11 guard still passes; its root now runs via flow.subgraph.

unify-subgraph-execution.md and subgraph-result-flow.md were left at status: draft though their work
landed (the foundation in be7b85a, the rest in the 524fade checkpoint). Set both to complete:
- unify-subgraph-execution.md: #13 done (action-by-name, root via flow.subgraph, structural path deleted,
  child-walks converged, retry intrinsic to DispatchChild).
- subgraph-result-flow.md: #10 confirmed + #11 fix and Go guard landed; the Starlark guard remains
  t.Skip'd pending #12 (plan.Provider.Assemble nil-origin).

… guard (#12)

plan.Provider.Assemble dereferenced a nil op.Origin (origin.Scope()/Annotations(), provider.go:176) when
plan.assemble is invoked from Starlark with the default origin=. Default a nil origin to the zero OriginBase
before the tool-stamping, so the scope/annotations read is safe.

- provider/plan/provider.go: `if origin == nil { origin = op.OriginBase{} }` ahead of the tool stamp.
- provider/flow/result_flow_starlark_test.go: removed the t.Skip; TestSubgraphBoundAction_FlowsLeafResult_Starlark
  now runs and passes -- the result-flow proven end to end through the Starlark plan path (plan.subgraph ->
  flow.subgraph -> plan.run).
- subgraph-result-flow.md: Resolution + Status record the Starlark guard green and #10/#11 fully closed.

pkg/op + flow + plan green (scoped); whole-tree still red on #6.
