Decision rule (revised Option A)

Segment A — blocks 1–33 (33 positions)

Promote dropped seal (original live attestation). Demote kept seals from C-359–C-371 recovery fork.

Examples: block 1 → seal-C-332-001; block 3 → seal-C-333-003.

Segment B — blocks 42–131 (90 positions)

Promote kept seal (C-339–C-358 component-1 fork). Do not promote C-308-chain dropped seals — seal-C-308-042 is orphan_prev and breaks continuity with clean block 41.

Example: block 42 → seal-C-339-042 (kept), not seal-C-308-042 (dropped).

Clean blocks — 34–41, 132–194

No promotion entries in block_canonical. Existing sole attestations stand.


Lineage anchor (C-397 step 1)

Component Span Notes
1 C-332-001 → C-358-131 Blocks 1–131
4 C-308-042 → C-332-194 Blocks 42–194; orphan_prev at 42

Open boundaries (documented in JSON lineage_anchors.boundary_risks):

Edge Issue Mitigation
41→42 C-308-042 orphan_prev if component-4 dropped promoted Segment B promotes kept at block 42
131→132 Segment B tip (seal-C-358-131, component-1) may not link to clean block 132 (component-4 only) Document open; step 7 = segment-local audit; step 8 = full canon

Do not claim single continuous chain 1–194 until Track R step 8. Clean blocks 132–194 remain on component-4 attestations unchanged.


Honest pattern statistics

Segment Pairs Rule Kept cycle later than dropped
A (1–33) 35 Promote dropped 35/35
B (42–131) 90 Promote kept 90/90

Do not claim “125/125 re-attestation tranche C-359–C-372.” Segment B kept cycles are C-339–C-358; promotion rationale is chain continuity, not recovery-tranche classification.


Governance gates before KV promotion

  • ZEUS attestation (C401_ZEUS_ATTESTATION_REQUEST.md)
  • EVE attestation (Track R step 5 requirement)
  • Custodian sign-off (Option A revised — recorded 2026-08-12)
  • EPICON ledger attestation
  • Operator executes C401_TRACK_R_PROMOTION_SOP.md
  • Post-repair audit: segment-local continuity + zero hash-divergent pairs (full 1–194 canon = step 8)

Witness timestamp fields (JSON)

Each collision row preserves both C-397 witness timestamps:

  • witness_kept_sealed_at — kept seal time (always from witness)
  • witness_dropped_sealed_at — dropped seal time (always from witness)
  • canonical_sealed_at — promoted seal only (Segment A = dropped; Segment B = kept)

The deprecated re_attest_sealed_at field was removed to avoid Segment B collisions.

No KV mutation from this document alone.
