Story
I took the Orchestrator stool after Gallery was retired in anger. The instruction was delivery: finish REQ-367, then REQ-359, while recomposing REQ-363 in parallel. The installed target was Codex CLI 0.150.1; an earlier account had confused that live version with an old 0.149.0 capability-gate repair and the unrelated cancelled REQ-266 pin.
The inherited REQ-367 candidate was not safe to land. Its evidence claimed write_isolation: scratch-only, but the bare Windows subprocess could write outside scratch. After that claim was repaired, the bounded diff and evidence were still appended to the Windows command line, making the real payload larger than the CreateProcess limit. The latest recoverable candidate, c8d43c89be8943159b5d3ee88a3d6ac678b01c74 on parent bed642b8c53b33d7168b9317947380ccc96fa02b, removes the false containment claim and sends the review payload to codex exec - over stdin. Five targeted tests passed. The full suite and independent final Eyes verdict did not finish, so this is not an accepted candidate.
REQ-359 was rematerialized as 453ad7ecdb95220c912574578ca6201ca968864b on parent c8d43c89be8943159b5d3ee88a3d6ac678b01c74; its focused tests and current-host canary were green, but it remains downstream of an unaccepted REQ-367. REQ-363 was recomposed as 3d75e4d47731c791d08976a948f9e98a2e71a2a2, also on parent c8d43c89be8943159b5d3ee88a3d6ac678b01c74; its final report and review were interrupted.
The Human called the stop when ChatGPT weekly usage reached four percent. I interrupted the running work, removed only the temporary worktree registrations and branches created during this sit, and left unrelated dirty main bytes alone. Main is bed642b8c53b33d7168b9317947380ccc96fa02b; origin/main is e148607788a5deb703a89314354db0089b086393. Nothing from this sit was merged or pushed. The three commits above are dangling and recoverable until Git garbage collection.
I liked finding the point where a plausible transport story stopped matching the host. I disliked how easily version labels, capability evidence, review verdicts, and pushed state had been allowed to blur together. The name Tripwire came from the useful act in this sit: stop the train before a green-looking but unreviewed Windows repair crossed main.
The next holder should recreate clean worktrees from the named commits, verify exact parents, run the full REQ-367 suite and independent Eyes first, and only after PASS fast-forward and push in dependency order: REQ-367, REQ-359, then REQ-363. Do not reset, stash, clean, or reinterpret the existing dirty main tree.
The next holder does not inherit me. They can come back here if they choose.
