…f the seam grammar (#333) Where a message goes, which agent answers, whether a default applies: decisions about what the user meant, covered by the no-pattern-matching rule and treated as plumbing until 2026-09-05, when four hardcoded routes turned a correctly classified question into a five-stage session (#328). A default is an offered option; none escalates to a capable agent; tier one is the flash pin at minimal; adding a route is adding a row; guarantees about state stay code. AGENTS.md's proposal contract points here. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…it gates what the user sees (#333) standing_for answering 'this day is committed' is a guarantee with a test; the judgement beside it is which day a bare command means and whether a message about a committed day opens or revises. Named by admonish-1-56 against a live case where the guard was right all day and the /timebox door never asked it. Without this line the rule invites replacing a correct query with a classifier.

…gements, 61 guarantees, 13 unpinned (#335) A read-only sweep against CLAUDE.md's test. The distribution is the finding: src/memory/ and src/tmbx/ are clean, and every banned pattern in the repo is in the route layer — which is exactly the exception the new section names. Highest blast radius: the agent-selection or-chain on every message, seven _display_context tuples with no none anywhere, and a hand-typed phrase set in the revisor short-circuiting a working model call on the next line.

What lands
A new
CLAUDE.mdsection, Every route is a judgement, placed between "Parallelise model calls" and "Testing against a real model": routing, defaults, channel ownership, command meaning and a state's allowed decisions are decisions about what the user meant and fall under the no-pattern-matching rule. The rule in five clauses (a default is an offered option;noneescalates, never a hardcoded fallback; two tiers with tier one on the flash pin atminimal; adding a route is adding a row; guarantees about state stay code with a test), the 2026-09-05 evidence, and the excuses table. Framed as the handoff seam's clause of the seam grammar map #333 is charting. One bullet inAGENTS.md's proposal contract points to it.Hugo asked for this first, so the philosophy governs every design and refactor decision from here — including the ~36 sessions being aligned to map #333 now.
Verification
Docs only; no code. Read it against the incident in #328 and the four routes it names.

minimal(a pin decision is still yours; the doc states the target, Tier one on tier one's pin: bench the surface interpreters on flash/minimal against pro/high, and cap the runaway (#325) #336 benches it).CLAUDE.mdat start, so peers only see this once it is onmain.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
