Three Windows-only causes behind the six S05 failures on PR bmad-code-org#797's "test (windows, py3.11)" job; Linux assertions keep their strength. - tests/test_conftest.py::test_refuse_to_resolve_defaults_to_the_unc_refusal_and_stays_scoped CPython derives `errno` from a supplied `winerror` (64 -> EINVAL), so the `0` placeholder only survives off-Windows.

Root cause (production, verify._run_git prepared_update mode): the
`update-ref --stdin` child is spawned with text=True, whose TextIOWrapper
(newline=None) writes os.linesep for "\n" — "\r\n" on Windows — so git read
`start\r`, died with `unknown command`, and every prepared transaction raised
"git prepared ref transaction failed". Pin newline="\n" on the command stream
only (the reply stream keeps universal-newline reading). Reproduced on Linux by
reconfiguring the wrapper to "\r\n" before the pin: git rc=128 unpinned,
"start: ok" pinned.
Cascades of that bug (recover with the fix, no test change):
- tests/test_verify.py: the 19 test_commit_path_bound_* rows and the two
test_prepared_ref_transaction_* rows (expect("start") failed first, so the
match= regexes never saw their real fault).
- tests/test_sweep.py: test_migration_normal_launch_runs_the_prelaunch_validator_once,
test_migration_prepared_publication_fault_is_sanitized_and_replayable,
test_migration_rival_during_bound_publication_replays_commit_only[before-/after-staging],

test_severity_selector_applies_to_the_post_migration_ledger,
test_sweep_migrates_legacy_then_triages_and_runs_bundle
(crash_error "migration ledger publication unavailable", phase stuck in
COMMITTING).
Separate cause A (DW-310 design, not the newline bug): on a host without
descriptor-relative writes recovery_flow refuses attempt-owned spec restoration
and lifecycle normalization and pauses for manual adoption, so a rollback that
must put the bound spec back cannot converge on Windows. Confirmed on Linux by
monkeypatching recovery_flow.DIR_FD_ANCHORED_WRITES=False over the whole engine
suite: exactly these seven rows pause with "attempt-owned spec needs manual
recovery". Mark them with the same `requires_descriptor_restoration` skip
test_recovery_flow.py already uses:
- tests/test_engine.py: test_bound_fixable_chain_restores_first_snapshot_before_fresh_retry[plain|resolved-redrive],
test_fixable_retry_chain_snapshot_reaches_phase_baseline,
test_intent_gap_restore_reapplies_after_mid_redrive_rollback,
test_nonfixable_chain_rollback_rebases_ledger_proof_reference,
test_resolved_redrive_owned_dirty_spec_routes_explicitly_and_converges,
test_resolved_redrive_reescalates_instead_of_deferring.
Separate cause B (core.autocrlf=true): safe_rollback's `preserve` round-trips
the artifact folder through `git stash create` + `git checkout`, so the LF spec
the refused restoration left alone reads back CRLF. Compare newline-normalized;
the assertion still distinguishes the operator content from the snapshot.
Reproduced and re-verified on Linux with `git config core.autocrlf true`.
- tests/test_recovery_flow.py: test_latched_redrive_forced_fallback_pauses_after_completed_baseline_reset,
test_resolved_cause_forced_fallback_pauses_after_completed_reset.
CI on a tree that had already passed every leg reddened twice on wall-clock: - test_commit_path_bound_recovers_post_commit_timeout (windows, py3.14): `git worktree timed out after 1s` — shrinking `_git_timeout_s` to 1 bounded every git child `commit_path_bound` spawns, not just the transaction whose lost acknowledgement the row is about. - test_commit_path_bound_uses_fractional_remaining_timeout_at_one_second (linux, py3.13): with a 1s budget, the probe, commit and process exit all had to fit in what the 0.2s hook sleep left, and a loaded runner did not. `_bound_transaction_only` wraps `_run_git` so the bound applies to the `update-ref --stdin` call alone and logs how each such transaction ended. The post-commit row now also pins its premise (`_GitCommitIndeterminate` really fired). The fractional row is renamed to what it observes: the lock-held probe receives a non-integral float remainder — an `int()` on the path reads as a whole number there (ablation: `int(remaining())` at the `validate_while_prepared` call reddens it) — with a 5s budget instead of a 1s race.

…usal A post-commit hook runs after the commit exists and cannot change it, so a hook that rewrites the authoritative deferred-work.md by absolute path lands bytes Git never validated. commit_path_bound already re-reads the live text against the accepted rewrite around the prepared transaction and refuses; the resume then pauses on 'live ledger differs from accepted rewrite'. Pin that at the sweep layer (first run stops in COMMITTING with HEAD unmoved; resume escalates, never DONE). Ablated against the pre-bound commit_paths tail on #796's tip, where the same run reaches DONE.

Reject deletion of a tracked migration baseline
When the ledger was tracked at the recorded baseline but another process commits its deletion before publication, current_oid is None and this check accepts it unconditionally. If the working tree still contains the accepted rewrite—for example, the deletion was committed through another worktree or index—commit_path_bound builds its candidate on the deleting commit and silently re-adds the ledger, overwriting the concurrent committed decision instead of treating it as rival state. Absence should be accepted only when durable authority proves the baseline was originally untracked; otherwise this repair publication must raise.

Confirmed and fixed in a696368. commit_path_bound now takes the baseline commit the accepted text was read beside (the sweep passes task.baseline_commit, stamped beside the durable baseline record and surviving the COMMITTING replay). When the captured HEAD carries no target, absence is accepted only if that commit did not track the ledger either — committed publication target was deleted after the accepted baseline otherwise, and … absence has no baseline authority when no baseline commit is supplied. Pinned at the unit layer (tracked-baseline committed deletion, absent target without authority, absence proven untracked at the baseline) and at the sweep layer (rival commits the ledger's removal during the migration session → sweep-ledger-commit-unavailable, HEAD stays on the deleting commit, ledger not re-added); all three negative tests were ablation-checked.

Follow-up in d4d9852 closes the originally-untracked arm too: when HEAD carries no target and the baseline commit never tracked it, _preflight_bound_absence now also probes first-parent ancestry for the accepted transition itself — a ledger this publication added that a later commit removed refuses its COMMITTING replay (deleted after its accepted publication) instead of re-adding it. Pinned and ablation-checked at the unit layer.
… of the tracked baseline `commit_path_bound` accepted an absent committed target unconditionally, so a rival commit that removed the tracked ledger after the migration baseline was taken had its decision silently overwritten: the candidate was built on the deleting commit and re-added the ledger. This is the committed twin of the staged deletion the real-index check already refuses. The publisher now takes the baseline commit the accepted text was read beside and, when HEAD carries no target, accepts absence only if that commit did not track the ledger either. No baseline commit is no authority and refuses the same way. The sweep passes `task.baseline_commit`, which is stamped beside the durable baseline record and survives the COMMITTING replay. Addresses the Codex P1 on #797.
…er thread `stop_child` closes `proc.stdout` on every abort, timeout and failure arm; a `read_responses` thread still iterating it then raised `ValueError` on its next line and escaped to `threading.excepthook` as a stderr traceback over a failure the caller was already handling. Catch the same classes `discard_stderr` already swallows; the `None` sentinel still lands in `finally`. Addresses the CodeRabbit finding on #797.
… publication The baseline-commit proof covers a ledger that was tracked when the baseline was taken. An originally untracked ledger has a second way to go absent: the transition published it and a later commit removed it before the COMMITTING replay resumed, which the absence arm would re-add. The accepted transition is still in first-parent ancestry then, so `_preflight_bound_absence` now probes for it beneath an absent HEAD and refuses the same way.

Compare raw ledger bytes before publishing
When the accepted ledger uses CRLF (for example, a Windows-authored checkout or a POSIX checkout preserving CRLF without an eol filter), read_text() normalizes it to LF, so this check accepts the live file even though its bytes differ from accepted_text.encode(). The candidate is then written as LF bytes and committed while the CRLF working-tree file remains in place; publication can be marked DONE with a dirty ledger and with different bytes from those actually validated. Validate the raw bytes, or at least their Git-normalized blob identity, rather than a universal-newline text read.

Confirmed and fixed in 842f65e. _bound_live_ledger_identity now reads the target's raw bytes. The first observation accepts them only when they decode, under the same universal-newline reading every ledger reader uses (deferredwork.read_for_write), to the accepted text — the comparison the sweep already made — and those observed bytes are what the candidate carries, so accepted_oid is their clean-filter identity and the committed blob is exactly what git add of the validated file stages under any line-ending configuration: LF blob and clean checkout under core.autocrlf=true (the Windows CI shape), CRLF blob and clean checkout under autocrlf=false, where the previous code committed LF over a CRLF checkout and left the ledger dirty beside DONE. A byte-exact comparison against accepted_text.encode() was not an option: atomic_write_text renders every rewrite with CRLF on Windows, so it would refuse every Windows host. Pinned at the unit layer (CRLF live file publishes its own bytes and reads clean; a same-text CRLF re-render after staging refuses with HEAD unmoved), both ablation-checked against the previous helper.

Detect in-place edits during live-ledger validation
If another writer rewrites the ledger in place after read_text() returns but before the trailing lstat(), the inode/device comparison still passes because the name continues to reference the same inode; size, mtime, ctime, and the newly written bytes are never compared. When this occurs in the final validation immediately before _publish_bound_candidate, the branch can be moved to the accepted candidate even though rival bytes are already live; the later validation only raises after the unauthorized commit is durable. Include mutation-sensitive stat fields and revalidate the bytes before allowing the repair publication.

Confirmed and fixed in 842f65e, together with the byte binding above. The observation the first call returns now carries the bytes read plus the target's device, inode, size, mtime_ns and ctime_ns; every later validation re-reads the file and holds it to that exact observation, so a rewrite of the same inode — different bytes, or the same text under other line endings — refuses before the transaction commits instead of being noticed by the post-publication check. The read itself is bracketed by two stats of those fields, so a write landing during it refuses too. The residual is the ordinary one for any validate-then-act without a lock: a write that lands after the final validation's trailing stat and before update-ref commits is caught only afterwards, and the durable commit then holds the accepted content while the rival bytes stay in the working tree, uncommitted. Pinned at the unit layer (a rewrite of the same inode landing inside the final pre-publication read refuses with HEAD unmoved), ablation-checked.
…ng git EOF test_prepared_ref_transaction_abort_failure_changes_no_ref closed the child's stdin to make the abort fail. That hands `git update-ref --stdin` EOF, on which git aborts the prepared transaction and exits by itself; when it did so before the except arm polled it (the py3.11 leg, under xdist load), there was no live transaction to abort, the injected validation fault propagated as designed, and the `transaction abort failed` match reddened. Reproduced on Linux by widening the window with a sleep after the close. Override the command wrapper's write instead: git stays waiting in `prepare`, the abort is attempted, its send raises, and the abort-failed arm is what the test exercises — every time.
…ytes _bound_live_ledger_identity compared a universal-newline read_text() against the accepted text, so a live ledger whose bytes differed from accepted_text.encode() — CRLF where the text is LF — passed, and the candidate was still built from the text's own encoding. On Windows atomic_write_text renders every rewrite with CRLF, so under core.autocrlf=false the publication committed an LF blob over a CRLF checkout and DONE was earned beside a dirty ledger holding bytes that were never the ones validated. The same read also let a rival rewrite the same inode in place between the read and the trailing lstat — dev/ino were all that was compared — and, at the final validation before _publish_bound_candidate, that meant the transaction committed over rival live content and only the post-publication check noticed. Read the target's raw bytes instead. The first observation accepts them only when they decode, under the ledger readers' universal-newline reading, to the accepted text — the comparison the sweep already made — and those bytes are what the candidate carries, so the committed blob is what `git add` of the validated file stages under any line-ending configuration (LF blob and clean checkout under autocrlf=true, the Windows CI shape; CRLF blob and clean checkout under autocrlf=false). Every later validation re-reads and holds the target to that exact observation — bytes, inode, size, mtime, ctime — and the read is bracketed by two stats of those fields, so rival bytes, the same text under other line endings, or a write landing during the read refuse before the transaction commits. Pinned: CRLF live file publishes its own bytes and reads clean; a same-text CRLF re-render after staging refuses; an in-place rewrite of the same inode landing inside the final pre-publication read refuses with HEAD unmoved. All three ablation-checked against the previous helper.
_dead_pid() spawned, reaped and dropped a Popen; on Windows the pid is free for reuse the moment that handle closes, and under xdist another worker's child took it — psutil.pid_exists then reported the "dead" engine alive and test_prunable_sessions_claims_an_untagged_session_on_a_run_id_collision classified the collided session as in use (Windows py3.14, run 35483771364). Keep each child in a module-level list for the interpreter's lifetime. The held handle pins the pid to the exited process, which OpenProcess still opens but psutil's PID-list double check (psutil #1094) reports as not running, so the 27 tests reading a dead engine pid see one on every host.
…t dead Holding the child's handle (d5dc866) pins the pid against reuse, but on Windows `wait()` returns when the process object is signaled and the pid can still be enumerated for a moment after that; test_discover_runs_classification probed it right away and read the dead engine as running (Windows py3.11, run 35495482756) while the 26 other dead-pid tests on the same leg passed. Poll platform_util.pid_alive — the probe every consumer of the pid goes through — until it answers dead, bounded at 10s and raising past it, so the helper is loud rather than flaky if an exited child ever reads alive for good.

Preserve the committed baseline blob identity
When a tracked legacy ledger is committed with CRLF bytes and Git preserves them (for example, core.autocrlf=false or a -text attribute), deferredwork.read_for_write() normalizes the baseline to LF, and this re-encoding therefore computes an LF blob rather than the CRLF blob in HEAD. _preflight_bound_tree_blob() then misclassifies the unchanged committed baseline as rival content, so every migration publication fails and the sweep remains stuck in COMMITTING. Preserve the baseline's raw bytes or derive its blob identity from baseline_commit instead of reconstructing it from normalized text.

Confirmed and fixed in 0da39b0. Reproduced first: a tracked baseline committed with CRLF bytes under core.autocrlf=false refused with committed publication target holds rival content because baseline_text.encode() names the LF blob and HEAD holds the CRLF one. commit_path_bound now takes the baseline's identity from the blob baseline_commit holds at the target (_bound_baseline_blob), held to baseline_text under the same universal-newline decoding deferredwork.read_for_write uses — a baseline record that no longer decodes to its commit's blob refuses (accepted baseline does not match the committed baseline) rather than borrowing that blob's name. A baseline no commit tracks keeps its text-derived id, which is then consulted only as an index allowance beneath an absent committed target. Pinned at the unit layer (CRLF-committed baseline publishes with the candidate parented on the baseline commit and the checkout clean; a baseline text outside its commit refuses with HEAD unmoved), both ablation-checked against the previous hashing.
…ext's LF encoding `commit_path_bound` derived `baseline_oid` from `baseline_text.encode()`, but that text is a universal-newline reading of the ledger, so its encoding names the LF blob and never the CRLF one Git preserves under `core.autocrlf=false` or a `-text` attribute — the shape every Windows-written ledger takes, since `atomic_write_text` renders CRLF there. `_preflight_bound_tree_blob` then read the unchanged committed baseline as rival content and the migration sat in COMMITTING for good. The baseline's identity is now the blob `baseline_commit` holds at the target, held to `baseline_text` under the same decoding `deferredwork.read_for_write` uses so a baseline record that no longer describes its commit refuses instead of borrowing that commit's blob.

Validate migration input at the actual adapter launch
When another process edits the ledger after this callback returns but before adapter.run(spec) begins, the migration session still launches using recovery records built from the old text; SessionSpec construction and the session-start journal write remain between this check and the launch. The child can then overwrite the concurrent edit, after which validation blesses its output against the stale manifest and the bound publisher sees only the accepted rewrite, so the promised fail-closed behavior is bypassed. Move the validation to the adapter-launch boundary or bind the child's first ledger write with equivalent compare-and-set authority.

Not taking this one — the window it names cannot be closed by moving the check, and it is already the smallest window on the path.
Between prelaunch_validator() and adapter.run(spec) there are exactly three things: SessionSpec(...) construction (pure), journal.set_active_log, and the session-start journal append — both writes land in the run dir, never the ledger. No executable hook runs there, which is what this validator exists to bound (DW-316's contract in FEATURES.md is "after executable pre-session hooks at the actual adapter-launch boundary", and every hook stage sits above it). Beyond adapter.run the child CLI takes seconds to start and minutes to rewrite the ledger; a rival write anywhere in that span produces the identical outcome the finding describes, and that span is what validate_migration against the durable manifest and the bound publisher's baseline/blob checks are for. A write in the microseconds between the validator and the launch is indistinguishable, from the child's side, from one landing during its startup — it is the same race, and the only guard against it is the post-session one.
Moving the call after the session-start record would also break the #157 pairing invariant: _retire_migration_dispatch_authority raises, and a raise between session-start and the try around adapter.run leaves the journal showing a session that never ended. Binding "the child's first ledger write" with compare-and-set authority is not available either — the child is a coding-CLI session that owns the file for its whole run; the orchestrator has no seam in it.
…te read DW-256 (this slice) absorbs pathlib's ignored winerrors — 1921 included — as absence at the write arm, so on Windows `read_for_write` answers None for a reparse-point cycle rather than raising LedgerReadFault. The S08 pin asserted a refusal on both platforms and would red at this tip with DID NOT RAISE (PR bmad-code-org#797 Windows legs). POSIX keeps the ELOOP refusal at full strength.
What
Twelfth of twelve stacked PRs draining Wave 5's deferred-work ledger (the dw…dw5 sweep lanes, Sept 4–14). Closes DW-308 … DW-311, DW-316 (5 entries) — the dw
dw-decision-dw-308anddw-decision-dw-309decision lanes plus the dw2fail-closed-fallback-spec-restoreandmigration-ledger-byte-bindingbatches.Why
This slice closes the last two places where the orchestrator still trusted a path instead of bytes: attempt-owned sprint-spec recovery (
recovery_flow.py) accepted a path-based readback after publication and would stage or lifecycle-normalize a spec it could not prove it had written, and legacy-ledger migration (sweep.py) carried dispatch authority minted from a ledger reread that a concurrent writer could invalidate before the adapter launched, then published the rewrite through a genericcommit_pathsthat never checked which parent, branch or blob it was committing over. It is the top of the stack because it builds directly on S11's migration publication recovery (DW-296/DW-297: themigrate-baseline.md/migrate-rewrite.mdrecord set and thecommittingphase) and on the_run_gitchokepoint hardening from earlier slices; nothing later depends on it.How

Final prepublication validation compares_target_stat_version(inode/device/generation) across before/after/named observations and refuses when the existing target was edited in place, preserving the competing bytes (DW-308).read_text()of the path (DW-310).SweepEngine._migration_input_is_currentrereads the ledger viadeferredwork.read_for_writebefore and after the baseline/manifest record writes and once more through a newprelaunch_validatorhook onengine.py's session launch, which runs after every executable pre-session hook and prompt repair but before the session-start record. Drift or a read fault calls_retire_migration_dispatch_authority: persistPENDINGwith no baseline and no current-format marker (refunding an attempt that launched no adapter) before best-effort record removal, so a cleanup fault cannot resurrect stale authority.fix(sweep): bind migration ledger publication bytesintroducesverify.commit_path_bound: capture the checkout's immediate and terminal branch identity (_bound_checkout_identity,_bound_symbolic_ref), stage an isolated clean-filter-normalized candidate, and_validate_bound_candidateagainst its exact parent, one-path scope, Git-normalized accepted blob, decoded live text and regular resolved target.
