feat: close reported graph blind spots in reference resolution, analyze and storage (#2856)
* fix(mcp): report UNKNOWN risk when an upstream impact walk finds no callers

`risk: LOW` asserts "safe to change" — a claim ABOUT callers. An upstream
walk that resolved none has nothing to base it on: the symbol may be
genuinely unused, or reached only through a reference class the index does
not record (a property access on a plain object, a bare-identifier read of a
module-scope const). Seeding LOW from an empty result is the false-safe
signal `anyKnownRisk` already refuses to emit on the ambiguous-candidate
path, and that #2687 removed by making an undetermined impactedCount `null`
rather than `0`.

Zero-caller upstream results now report risk UNKNOWN with a riskNote saying
absence of edges is not evidence of disuse. Downstream is untouched: an
empty downstream walk reports resolved callees, not safety.

* feat(javascript): emit ACCESSES for bare-identifier reads of module-scope consts

A constant read only as a bare identifier — `Math.max(LIMIT, n)`, a default
parameter value, `return LIMIT` — minted no reference site at all, because
JS captured only `@reference.read.member`, which requires a receiver a bare
identifier does not have. So "who uses this constant?", the question behind
every dead-code trim and constants refactor, answered with a confident zero
in both directions.

The rest of the machinery was already in place: `FIELD_KINDS` accepts
`Const`, the scope query already declares it via `@declaration.const`, and
`read` maps to ACCESSES for any resolved target. This adds the missing
capture in VALUE POSITIONS ONLY (call arguments, default-parameter values,
return statements) — a blanket `(identifier)` rule would mint a site for
every token in the file, which is unaffordable at repo scale and would keep
alive the block-local symbols `pruneLocalSymbols` exists to drop.

Cross-file readers are NOT yet covered: the site exists and a call through
the same import statement resolves, but a value-kind def does not link
across the import edge. Recorded as a todo with the investigation.

PARSE_CACHE_VERSION bumped 44 -> 45: this is parse-time capture emission, so
a warm cache replays the pre-change capture set and the new edges never
appear — observed directly, a full `analyze --force` produced a
byte-identical graph until the cache was cleared by hand.

* test(javascript): pin A1/A5 plain-object property acceptance criteria

Fixture plus todo specs for the four shapes plain-object property access has
to answer: object-literal keys indexed as Property nodes, a read through the
holding variable, a property WRITE, and a read through an untyped param.

Records the investigation so the work is resumable: the parse-query pattern
scoped to literals bound to a variable matches correctly (verified against
the raw JAVASCRIPT_QUERIES), but no Property node reaches the graph and
local-symbol-pruner is not the cause — it drops only Const/Variable/Static.
The remaining gate is in the parse worker's node-creation path.

No production code — specs only, so the suite stays green.

* feat(javascript): index object-literal keys of a named object as Property nodes

Idiomatic JS models configuration as an object literal, not a class, but
Property definition nodes existed only for DECLARED CLASS FIELDS. A config
field therefore had no symbol at all: `context({name: 'exitMinAtrMult'})`
answered "not found" for a field read and written throughout a live code
path, and ACCESSES had no target to point at.

Both halves are added for keys of a literal BOUND TO A VARIABLE — the parse
query mints the graph node, the scope query mints the def the resolver can
aim at. Unbound literals are deliberately excluded: an inline call argument
or a JSX prop bag is call-site data, not a named surface other code
references, so a node per key there would add volume without adding an
answerable question.

This lands the definition-node half only. The ACCESSES edges still require
receiver resolution — typing the const that holds the literal to the
literal's scope for the precise case, and name-based matching at reduced
confidence for the untyped-param (option bag) case. Both are recorded as
todos with the mechanism each needs.

Also records a trap that cost a wrong conclusion: under vitest the parse
worker runs the BUILT dist code (parse-impl resolves parse-worker.js, absent
under src/, and falls back to dist), so parse-query changes are invisible to
tests until `npm run build`.

* test(cache): move the SCHEMA_BUMP pin to 45

The pin is the guard that makes two branches claiming one cache-schema
number fail loudly instead of silently serving each other's entries, so a
bump is only half-done until the pin moves with it. The bump itself landed
with the JavaScript bare-identifier captures; this is the other half.

Caught by the guard working exactly as designed — the suite failed with
"expected 45 to be 44" rather than letting a mismatched pair through.

* feat(scope-resolution): resolve plain-object property access by unique name

Idiomatic JS reads configuration off an object whose receiver cannot be
typed — an options bag passed as a parameter, a destructured handle, an
imported literal. No precise pass resolves those, so a field read and
written across a live code path produced no ACCESSES edge at all and "who
reads this setting?" answered a confident zero.

A last-resort pass runs after every precise pass and sees only what they
left behind. For each still-unresolved read/write site it asks whether
exactly ONE Property in the workspace carries that name. If so the read
almost certainly means it. If two or more do, nothing is emitted and the
site is COUNTED as ambiguous — a guess between them would be a coin flip,
and a wrong edge in the pre-edit safety gate is worse than a missing one.

Uniqueness is the right gate because it recovers exactly the names worth
recovering: distinctive domain fields (exitMinAtrMult, bookNotionalUsdt)
are unique in a repo and resolve, while generic keys (id, name, data) are
not and are skipped — which is where name matching would over-connect.

Bounded four ways:
- Confidence 0.5, the global tier, with the inference named in the reason,
  so a consumer can filter inferences without losing scope-resolved edges.
- Never second-guesses a precise result: sites already resolved are
  excluded, because first-write-wins stops a duplicate but NOT a second
  edge to a different target.
- Honors `fieldFallbackOnMethodLookup`. A statically-typed language opts
  out of name matching precisely because it over-connects; inferring an
  ACCESSES edge by name is the same claim and must obey the same opt-out.
- Requires an explicit receiver — a bare identifier is not a property
  access, and matching one by name would link a local to an unrelated key.

Indexes graph nodes rather than scope defs because an object-literal key
mints a Property NODE but no scope-resolution DEF: `localDefs` and
`scope.bindings` are both empty for exactly the population this serves.

* feat(analyze): record a collapsed graph write instead of reporting fresh

The dangerous half of a broken refresh: metadata IS written, so the index
reads as fresh, hooks re-arm, and every tool answers from a graph missing
most of its edges — indistinguishable from a codebase that genuinely has no
such relationships. Reported in the field as edges collapsing 23009 -> 2170
and as a CodeRelation table that never materialized.

`analyze` now compares the relationship count the pipeline PRODUCED against
what the DB hands back after the write. Both numbers are already in scope at
the same point, so the shortfall is provable rather than inferred — no
comparison against the previous index, which cannot distinguish a failed
write from a repo that legitimately shrank. A missing relation table needs
no special case: it reads back as a persisted count of zero.

On a collapse the run records `graphWriteCollapsed` in metadata, which
`getIndexIncompleteReasons` turns into `graph-write-collapsed` so status and
the MCP resources report the index INCOMPLETE rather than fresh.

A ratio, not equality: some relationship types do not round-trip one-for-one
and `--pdg` writes MORE rows into the same table, so demanding equality
would fire on healthy runs. Only a collapse is a defect. Fail-safe when the
expected count is unavailable — an implementation that offloads
relationships out of memory may not be able to report a total, and a false
"your index is broken" is worse than a missed one.

* fix(ingestion): qualify object-literal Property ids by their owning object

Two config objects in one file that share a key name generated the same
`Property:<file>:<key>` id and COLLAPSED INTO ONE node, so two distinct
settings became a single symbol. Worse, the merged name then looked
workspace-unique to name inference, which happily resolved reads of it to a
node representing both — a wrong edge in the pre-edit safety gate, which is
precisely what the unique-name pass is bounded to avoid.

`objectLiteralOwnerInfo` already existed for exactly this ("so two
constructors in one file that both define `bar` stay distinct nodes") but
was gated to `Method`. `Property` now opts in.

`findObjectLiteralBindingInfo` returns `ownerName` only when asked. Its
`Method` ids must stay byte-identical — qualifying them would rewrite every
object-literal method id in every indexed repo — while object-literal KEYS,
indexed only since A1/A5, have no such history to preserve.

Found by a test written for the ambiguity path rather than by review: the
suite reported one node where two were expected, and an edge where none
should exist. Both are now pinned, along with the detection boundaries of
the B2 collapse check, which was previously an untestable inline expression
and is now a pure function.

* feat(typescript): index type aliases and shape members as symbols

A TS frontend models its API contracts as `type X = { … }` and `interface`,
so a field on one is exactly what "who breaks if I remove this?" is asked
about. Three gaps made that unanswerable, all in the TypeScript queries:

1. No `type_alias_declaration` -> `@definition.type`, so an alias minted NO
   NODE AT ALL and a context() lookup on an exported contract type answered
   "Symbol not found". TypeScript was the ONLY language missing this — Rust
   (type_item), Kotlin (type_alias), Swift (typealias_declaration) and Dart
   all emit it. The alias was declared for scope resolution but never became
   a graph symbol.
2. No `property_signature` in the parse query, so INTERFACE members minted no
   Property nodes either — the upstream report's "class/interface index fine"
   holds only for the type, not its fields.
3. No `property_signature` in the scope query, so even with nodes present the
   resolver had no member declaration to aim at. Its sibling
   `method_signature` -> `@declaration.method` already existed; only
   properties were missing.

Interface bodies and object-type aliases both spell members as
property_signature, so one pattern per query covers both shapes.

Lands the SYMBOLS, not yet the ACCESSES edges: the shape is already a
class-like scope and now has member declarations, but no edge forms — the
remaining link is owner/type-binding, recorded as todos with the diagnosis.
Note TypeScript sets fieldFallbackOnMethodLookup:false, so unlike JavaScript
there is deliberately no name-based fallback here; the precise path is the
only route by design.

* test(golden): accept interface members in the mini-repo snapshot

Drift is entirely the new TypeScript shape-member indexing: the fixture's
three interfaces (ValidationResult 2, DbRecord 3, LogEntry 3) contribute
exactly 8 Property nodes, each with exactly one HAS_PROPERTY owner edge.

Verified before regenerating rather than after: every pre-existing count is
untouched (CALLS 9, IMPORTS 12, DEFINES 16, HAS_METHOD 1, MEMBER_OF 12,
STEP_IN_PROCESS 12), so nothing was rewired — the digest moved only because
8 edges were added. The fixture's inline `return { valid: false, … }`
literals correctly produced nothing, confirming the object-literal rule
stays scoped to variable-bound literals.

* fix(analyze): never report a collapse from a non-numeric count

The B2 check reported healthy runs as total graph-write collapses. A
non-numeric `expected` (a graph implementation reporting no total, a
lightweight pipeline result) does not skip the guards — it INVERTS them:
`undefined < 100` is false, so the small-repo exemption never fires, and
`0 >= undefined * 0.5` is `0 >= NaN`, also false, so the ratio check
"passes" as well. Both bounds silently evaporate and every such run is
flagged.

That is precisely the failure this check was written to catch, reproduced
inside the check itself: an unmeasurable quantity treated as a measured
zero. Both sides are now validated as finite numbers before any comparison.

`persisted` is also passed as UNKNOWN rather than zero when the DB was not
demonstrably readable: `getLbugStats` flattens "no connection", "query
threw" and "empty table" all into `edges: 0`, so `stats.nodes > 0` is used
as independent evidence the read happened at all.

Caught by the existing run-analyze suites, not by the new unit tests — those
exercised the pure function with well-formed numbers and were blind to the
integration's actual inputs. Both cases are now pinned.

* feat(typescript): make object-type aliases own their members

A TS object-type alias declares the same `property_signature` members as the
interface beside it and answers the same question, but was not a member
owner: its fields were minted with bare ids and no owner edge, so two
aliases in one file sharing a field name collapsed onto one node, while the
identical interface resolved normally.

`type_alias_declaration` joins CLASS_CONTAINER_TYPES (and
CONTAINER_TYPE_TO_LABEL, as that set's invariant requires — a container
missing there gets orphaned member edges or a wrong owner label). Aliases
with no object type (`type Id = string`) declare no members, so they own
nothing and are unaffected.

This also lands the INTERFACE field -> consumer edges, verified on the
mini-repo fixture rather than only on a purpose-built one: `saveToDb` now
links to `ValidationResult.value`, and `formatLogEntry` to `LogEntry.level`
and `LogEntry.message` — three real contract-field reads that previously had
no graph path at all. Golden updated: +3 ACCESSES, no node changes.

The ALIAS field -> consumer edge is still not linked and is recorded as a
todo with the exact blocker: resolving a receiver typed as the alias needs
the NAME to resolve to a class-like def, and `isClassLike` is
Class|Interface|Struct|Record|Enum|Trait. That predicate is read from ~12
sites including MRO and heritage, and every language mints TypeAlias, so
widening it would enrol aliases in linearizations where they do not belong.
Widening only the scope index was tried and reverted — the type-name walkers
gate on it independently, so it fixed nothing and left dead code. That needs
a deliberate "shape-like" concept, not more call-site widening.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(test): record the traced diagnosis for the unlinked alias field edge

Traced to the end rather than left as "needs investigation", so the next
attempt starts from facts:

  1. Graph side is COMPLETE and symmetric with the interface —
     Property:...:LiveModeConfig.bookSlots is owner-qualified and carries
     HAS_PROPERTY.
  2. Resolution DOES reach resolveClassBindingForName('LiveModeConfig')
     (instrumented) and misses.
  3. It misses because the module scope binds LiveModeIface:Interface,
     renderAlias, renderIface — and not LiveModeConfig. The alias has no
     binding on the receiver's scope chain at all.
  4. The TS scope query tags aliases @declaration.type, but normalizeNodeLabel
     accepts only typealias / type_alias and has no "type" case, so it returns
     undefined. Kotlin and Dart use @declaration.type_alias; TypeScript is
     alone on the dead tag.
  5. Retagging is NECESSARY BUT NOT SUFFICIENT — tried, and the binding still
     does not appear, so a second gate exists in how a declaration anchored on
     a node that is ALSO a @scope.class anchor is attached: the alias appears
     to bind inside its own scope rather than hoisting to Module, where
     interface_declaration evidently does hoist.

An isShapeLike predicate (the nominal-vs-structural split: shapes declare
members, nominal types participate in MRO) plus a mirrored
findShapeBindingInScope were built and REVERTED along with the retag. With no
binding on the chain they never fire, and shipping inert widening is worse
than shipping none — the same standard applied to the earlier scope-index
attempt. The design is recorded here; it is worth doing once step 5 is fixed,
and it also unblocks Rust's parked union_item, which the MEMBER_OWNER_NODE_TYPES
comment documents as the same gap in another language.

* feat(scope-resolution): resolve cross-file value references, skip block-locals

Two halves of the same question, "who uses this constant?".

CROSS-FILE. `resolveReferenceSites` runs against the registries and, as its
own comment says, "imports live in finalized bindings the registries can't
see" — which is why free CALLS need `emitFreeCallFallback`. Reads had no
counterpart, so `import { LIMIT }` followed by a bare use resolved to nothing
while a CALL through the very same import statement resolved fine. This adds
the read/write counterpart, reusing `findValueBindingInScope` (which walks the
FINALIZED chain) rather than inventing a lookup. Confidence 0.9: the import
names the def, so this is precise resolution, not inference.

BLOCK-LOCALS. Bare-identifier capture also matches a read of a block-local
`const`, and an edge to one keeps alive exactly the inert locals
`pruneLocalSymbols` exists to drop — a pruned node becomes a retained node
plus an edge, in every function of every indexed repo. Emission now takes the
set of value defs bound at MODULE scope and drops ACCESSES to
Const/Variable/Static outside it. The cross-file pass carries the same
guarantee structurally: a def in another file cannot be a block-local of this
one, so it skips same-file hits entirely.

The block-local leak was already shipped in the intra-file A2 commit and was
found only because a test was written for the guard rather than the feature —
the same way the object-literal id collision surfaced.

Verified on the full resolver matrix: 3172 tests, golden unchanged.

* fix(lbug): diagnose a vanished staging CSV instead of surfacing a Binder error

A forced rebuild could fail with "COPY failed for File: Binder exception: No
file found that matches the pattern .gitnexus/csv/file.csv" and then an ENOENT
on .gitnexus/csv/rel_Folder_File.csv — two engine-level messages that name
neither a cause nor a remedy, which is where several field reports end.

Only tables with rows > 0 enter the COPY manifest (csv-generator.ts), so an
absent file was WRITTEN during this run and removed since. Both COPY loops now
preflight and say exactly that, with the row count, both causes the reports
point at (a second `gitnexus analyze` on the same repo — they share
.gitnexus/csv — or an external cleanup of .gitnexus/), and the action to take.

Scope note, deliberately narrow: this does not attempt to fix WAL corruption
or checkpoint rotation. Those already have detection and recovery hints
(isWalCorruptionError, WAL_RECOVERY_SUGGESTION, the configurable
wal-checkpoint-threshold), and the ~6000 lines added to lbug/ + storage/ since
v1.6.9 — index-lock.ts most of all, which serializes writers and plausibly
closes the concurrent-run class outright — postdate every report in the
window. Guessing at unreproducible durability faults would be speculation;
making the one failure with NO handling legible is not.

An existing overlap test induced this exact scenario (a manifest entry
pointing at a missing csv) and asserted on the engine's wording. Its intent —
that a node-COPY failure is rethrown at the FK barrier rather than swallowed —
is unchanged and still asserted; only the message it matches moved.

* feat(scope-resolution): split shape-like from class-like, linking alias fields

Completes A4: a field on a TypeScript object-type alias now links to the code
that reads it, the last unanswerable half of "who breaks if I remove this?"
for a TS frontend that models contracts as `type X = { … }`.

`isClassLike` answered two questions that only coincide for classes:
  1. does this declare MEMBERS I can look up?   — a SHAPE (structural)
  2. does this participate in inheritance / MRO? — a NOMINAL TYPE
An object-type alias is (1) and emphatically not (2) — it has no supertypes
and no place in a linearization. Widening `isClassLike` to buy (1) would have
enrolled every language's aliases (Rust type_item, Kotlin/Swift/Dart
typealias, C typedef) into MRO and heritage, so the two questions now get two
predicates. Call sites split by which they ask, and their names already said
which: `resolveInheritanceBaseInScope` and `resolveQualifiedInheritanceBase`
keep `isClassLike`; receiver typing and member OWNERSHIP take `isShapeLike`.

Three parts, each necessary and none sufficient alone:
- `findShapeBindingInScope`, mirroring `findValueBindingInScope`'s established
  relationship to `findClassBindingInScope` (same walker, different accepted
  def-type), consulted only AFTER the class lookup misses so a class of the
  same name always wins.
- `populateClassOwnedMembers` uses it, so alias members get an `ownerId` and
  are registered under the alias. Without this the receiver resolved to the
  alias and then found no members under it.
- The TS scope query tags aliases `@declaration.type_alias`, not
  `@declaration.type`: `normalizeNodeLabel` accepts typealias / type_alias and
  has no "type" case, so the old tag mapped to NO label and TypeScript aliases
  produced no scope-resolution def at all. Kotlin and Dart already spelled it
  this way; TypeScript alone was on the dead tag.

An earlier attempt concluded a further "scope-attachment gate" existed. That
was wrong and is worth recording: scope extraction runs in the parse WORKER,
which loads built `dist`, so the retag was never executed. Rebuilt, the alias
hoists to Module scope exactly as the interface does. Same trap as the parse
query — `src` edits to anything the worker runs are invisible until
`npm run build`.

Typedef and Union stay out of `isShapeLike` deliberately: they belong
conceptually (the union_item note on MEMBER_OWNER_NODE_TYPES records the same
gap) but neither is wired as a member container, so including them would widen
a predicate nothing exercises.

Verified on the full resolver matrix: 3173 tests, golden unchanged.

* test(typescript): pin the type-alias capture to a tag that maps to a label

The capture test asserted `@declaration.type`, the tag that
`normalizeNodeLabel` does not recognize (it accepts typealias / type_alias and
has no "type" case). So the test passed for as long as the tag was broken: it
checked only that the capture FIRED, never that it resolved to anything, while
TypeScript aliases produced no scope-resolution def at all.

Updated to the working tag and given a second assertion that the derived kind
string is one the label mapper accepts — the property that actually matters,
and the one whose absence let a dead tag sit pinned.

* fix(lbug): declare TypeAlias member pairs so analyze does not abort

Making object-type aliases member owners emits HAS_PROPERTY from a `TypeAlias`,
and the relation schema declared no such pair. The emit therefore threw
`UndeclaredRelationPairError` and the ENTIRE analyze died on any repo
containing `type X = { ... }` — a hard stop, not a dropped edge. Found by
running the analyzer over a real 16k-node TypeScript repo, not by a test.

`Method` is declared alongside `Property`: a member written
`type Handler = { onClick(): void }` is a method_signature and would fail in
exactly the same way.

Why every existing test missed it: the resolver suites build an in-memory
graph via `runPipelineFromRepo` and never write to LadybugDB, so the schema
constraint was never exercised. `structural-pair-coverage.test.ts` is the one
suite that does run the emitters against the declared pairs — and its own
docstring names the gap: coverage is bounded by NON_BRIDGE_CORPUS, "a new
structural emitter should land with an entry here". This adds that entry,
pinning TypeAlias|Property and Interface|Property as sentinels.

Verified the guard is not vacuous: removing the pair again makes the suite
fail with undeclaredPairs: ["TypeAlias|Property"].

* fix(processes): trace depth-first so multi-hop flows are detected

D1 ("query ranks frontend components above the backend module that owns the
concept") and D2 ("processes is dominated by trivial mechanical chains") are
the same defect, and neither is about ranking or selection.

The walk stops after a fixed NUMBER of traces, so traversal order decides which
traces those are. Breadth-first reaches every shallow terminal before any deep
one, so the quota filled with the shortest paths in the graph and the walk
stopped — `maxTraceDepth: 10` was never approached. Measured on a real repo
before the fix: of 300 processes NONE exceeded 7 steps and 90% were 3-4. A
multi-hop business flow (signal → order → exit) therefore had no process that
could represent it, and `query` could only rank the mechanical pairs that did
exist. Step 4 of the caller already sorts by length and dedupes by endpoint —
it was always asking for the deepest traces this walk could give it.

Depth-first descends to a terminal first, so the same quota is spent on paths
worth keeping. Cost is unchanged: same budget, same cycle guard, same depth
ceiling — only the order differs.

Measured on the same 16k-node repo, same build and flags, BFS vs DFS (an
earlier comparison was discarded as confounded — it crossed builds and --pdg):

  steps   6-8:  50 → 168   (3.4x)
  totals:      844 → 806

and the reported query moved from `LiveSetupView → Cn` (a React component) to
`ReconcilePositions → IsTpInProfit / WithHeld / ShouldNotify` — server-side
exit management, which is what was asked for.

`traceFromEntryPoint` is exported for the test. Traversal order is unobservable
through `processProcesses`: `findEntryPoints` supplies several starting points,
so a deep chain is traced from inside it whatever the order does. A test at
that level passes under BOTH traversals — the first version of this test did
exactly that and guarded nothing. Driving the walk directly, it fails under
breadth-first with "expected 3 to be greater than 3".

* docs(test): correct a stale status note left behind by a later fix

The A1/A5 header still said "edge resolution REMAINING ... neither is
implemented". Both shapes resolve — the typeable receiver precisely, the
untyped one by workspace-unique name — and the tests below assert exactly that,
so the note contradicted the file it sat on.

It was accurate when written and went stale when the work continued past it.
Left as-is it would tell a reviewer that a landed feature is missing.

The TRAP note is kept: the parse worker still runs built dist under vitest, and
that is still the trap it describes.

* feat(scope-resolution): index literals behind identity-preserving wrappers

`export const INERT_EXIT_CONTRACT = Object.freeze({ ... })` minted no
`Property` node for any of its keys. The object-literal rule matches
`variable_declarator > value: (object)` as a DIRECT child, and freezing puts a
call expression in between — so the shape whose fields are most worth querying
was the one shape the rule could not see. Freezing a config object is how JS
publishes an immutable contract, which is why this reads as a confident zero
on exactly the fields a reader cares about.

The allowlist is three functions, not "any call". `Object.freeze`, `seal` and
`preventExtensions` RETURN THE ARGUMENT THEY WERE GIVEN, which is what makes
the literal's keys members of the bound name. For `const x = compute({ a: 1 })`
the literal is an argument and `x` holds compute's return value, so attributing
`a` to `x` would be a fabrication.

Two negative controls, because the obvious one is vacuous: a bare-identifier
callee is rejected structurally and would pass with no allowlist at all, so the
assertion that actually pins the predicate uses `Object.entries` — identical
shape, differing only by name. Verified load-bearing by adding `entries` to the
allowlist and watching that test alone fail.

SCHEMA_BUMP 46 -> 47: parse-time emission, so a warm cache replays the pre-fix
capture set. Observed as a false negative first — `analyze --force` returned
the old node set until the on-disk cache was removed by hand.

* fix(scope-resolution): narrow multi-candidate property names by scope

Workspace uniqueness was the wrong denominator. Measured on the reporting
repo: `exitMinAtrMult` has 26 `Property` definitions — 16 in one-off
`scripts/`, 7 in the frontend, one in a test, and exactly ONE in the backend
that reads it. Every backend read was refused because of competitors the
reader cannot see. The gate was not too permissive or too strict, it was
scope-blind.

A name with several definitions is now narrowed before being abandoned:
same-file first, then files the reading file directly imports, using the
finalized import graph rather than a path-shape heuristic. Exactly one
survivor at the first non-empty tier resolves; anything else stays refused.
A tier holding several candidates stops the walk instead of falling through —
local evidence that is itself ambiguous still contradicts reaching further out.

Confidence stays 0.5 at every tier. Narrowing changes which candidate is
chosen, not the kind of claim: it is still a name match, and the round-1
contract is that filtering on confidence drops all name inference at once.
The reason string now names the tier that fired.

Ambiguity reporting goes from a count to the actual names (capped), because a
count says a gap exists while the names say which fields are unanswerable.

Measured on that repo, backend readers of `exitMinAtrMult` go 0 -> 24 and
total readers 9 -> 45, including the two call sites in
`oppositeSignalExitManager.js` the report singled out. Both narrowing tests
were mutation-checked by dropping the import evidence and confirming they, and
only they, fail.

* feat(scope-resolution): capture destructured parameter keys as property reads

`function exit({ exitMinAtrMult = 0 })` reads that property off whatever the
caller passes, exactly as `cfg.exitMinAtrMult` would. It never appears in a
member_expression, so it had no reference site at all — and this is the shape
the function that IMPLEMENTS a behaviour uses, so the most relevant reader was
the one systematically missing from "who reads this setting?".

Uses a distinct `@reference.read.destructured` anchor rather than
`@reference.read.member`. The latter is filtered emit-side to matches with a
member_expression ancestor, because calls and writes share its shape, and a
destructuring pattern has none — reusing the tag would have been silently
dropped by that filter. The `read.` head already maps to a read kind, so no
mapping change is needed.

Scoped to formal_parameters. A destructuring binding elsewhere
(`const { x } = require('m')`) is frequently an import rather than a field
read, and minting a property read there would attribute module bindings to
unrelated same-named keys.

All three cases (default value, bare shorthand, renamed key) mutation-checked
by removing the patterns and confirming those three tests, and only those,
fail. The renamed case also asserts the edge points at the KEY and that the
local alias mints nothing.

* fix(scope-resolution): link type consumers to the type they name

An exported contract type owned its members after round 1 and still answered
`incoming: {}`, so "what breaks if I remove this field?" — the question a
contract type exists to answer — had no edge to walk. Measured on the
reporting repo: all 324 TypeAlias nodes AND every Interface node had DEFINES
as their only incoming edge.

Two independent causes, and the second is why the first was not enough.

TypeScript captured no type references at all — only cpp and csharp did — so
an annotation naming a declared type minted no reference site. Added for
annotations, generic arguments and `as` assertions, anchored to those contexts
rather than a bare `(type_identifier)`, which would also match the name in
`type X = …` and make every declaration a consumer of itself.

That alone fixed interfaces and left aliases still empty. `TypeAlias` was
missing from `LINKABLE_LABELS`, so alias graph nodes were never indexed in
`nodeLookup` and `resolveDefGraphId` could not bridge a def to its node — the
edge was dropped AFTER a successful lookup. `CLASS_KINDS` has always listed
TypeAlias and the ClassRegistry returned the def correctly, which is what made
this read as a resolution failure; instrumenting the lookup showed it
returning the right def all along and moved the search one table over. Exactly
the bug already documented two entries above it for Trait.

Fixes every language that spells an alias this way — TypeScript, Kotlin, Dart
and Rust all emit `@declaration.type_alias`.

* feat(scope-resolution): capture record construction as property writes

The read side answered well after the narrowing work while "who SETS this
field?" still missed the code that stamps the value. A record built inline —
`return { exitContract: { exitMinAtrMult: settings.x } }` — is bound to no
variable, so it minted no definition and its keys referenced nothing.

Modelled as WRITE REFERENCES, deliberately not definitions. The round-1 rule
already mints Property nodes for literals bound to a variable; minting more for
anonymous records would add same-named competitors to the very name-narrowing
that makes these fields resolvable — measured at 26 competing definitions for
one field on the reporting repo, which is what made every backend read
unanswerable in the first place. A construction site is a USE of a field, not
another declaration of it.

Two positions only: nested under a key, and returned. Both are records with a
name attached (the key, or the function). An inline call argument
(`doThing({ id: 1 })`) stays excluded for the same reason round 1 excluded it
from definitions — it is call-site data, not a named surface — and is asserted
as such.

The enclosing literal is the receiver and it is anonymous, so these route
through the same narrowing and the same refusal-to-guess as every other
untyped receiver.

Verified on the reporting repo: `entryPlan.js` went from no rows to
`selectExitEnvelope` as a writer of `exitMinAtrMult`. Both captures
mutation-checked.

* feat(processes): select round-robin by terminal so the list is not one flow repeated

Ranking was `sort by length` alone, so the top of the list was one behaviour
described many ways: eleven of the top fourteen processes on the reporting
repo were four entry points crossed with three terminals of the SAME
date-window utility cluster. Genuine call chains, but a reader learns one
thing from fourteen entries, and the repo's own domain flows sat below them.

Selection now round-robins across TERMINALS, deepest first. Depth still orders
within a terminal and still leads the list; what changes is that no terminal
takes a second slot until every other has had a first.

Keying on the entry point was tried first and made it worse — many files
declare a `main`, so each was a distinct entry that round-robin then awarded
its own slot, and `Main -> AlignWindowEnd` went from one row to eight. The
repetition was never in where a flow starts.

Measured on that repo: distinct terminals in the top 20 went 3 -> 20, and its
domain flows (`ReconcilePositions -> ...`) moved into the top 4%.

Two things this deliberately does not claim. The reported cause — ranking
rewarding fan-in, promoting chains ending in widely-called helpers — measured
FALSE: those terminals have one caller each (`alignWindowStart` 1,
`validateSymbol` 1). A fan-in discount was implemented against that hypothesis,
measured, and reverted for moving nothing. And a business flow still cannot be
a process in its own right: the walk only emits at a leaf, at max depth, or on
a cycle, so a flow whose meaningful endpoint calls onward survives only as
whatever leaf it bottoms out in. Both are recorded in the code so neither
reads as settled.

* test(structural-pairs): pin the type-annotation USES pair

R2-2 emits USES INTO a `TypeAlias`, so the pair is `Function|TypeAlias` — a
different table from the `TypeAlias|Property` entry added in round 1, and one
that entry stays green without. `TypeAlias` is on the eleven-table list this
suite exists for, and an undeclared pair does not degrade: it throws
`UndeclaredRelationPairError` and kills the entire analyze on any repo
containing an annotated type. Every resolver suite still passes, because they
build an in-memory graph and never write to the DB.

That exact failure shipped once in this PR already. Two emitters into the same
label, each with its own way to reach a released build.

* fix(scope-resolution): build the module-level set before the out-of-core seal

Review blocker. Under `GITNEXUS_DISK_SCOPE_INDEX=1` the seal replaces every
ParsedFile with a scope-STRIPPED copy, and the block-local filter's set was
built after it — so it walked `scopes: []` for every file, came out empty, and
the filter read that as "no def is module-level" and dropped EVERY
`Const`/`Variable`/`Static` ACCESSES edge in the repo. All languages, all
files, including the module-scope-const edges this PR exists to add. Nothing
threw and nothing logged, on the path the largest repos take: the exact
confident-empty answer the PR is about.

Built above the seal now, from `parsedFiles`, and passed as `undefined` rather
than an empty set when no scope was inspectable — an empty set is a legitimate
answer ("this repo has no module-level value defs") and must not be
indistinguishable from "could not look". Fails open; the block-local exclusion
is still asserted under the seal, since that is correctness rather than
optimization.

Also widens module level past `kind === 'Module'`. A `Namespace` scope (TS
`namespace`, Rust `mod`, C++/C# `namespace`) holds importable values too, and
treating its consts as function-locals dropped their reads. Included only when
the whole chain to the root is Module/Namespace, so a namespace declared inside
a function body stays local — asserted both ways.

That fixture then failed for a third reason: `@reference.read.identifier`
existed ONLY in the JavaScript query, so A2 did not work for TypeScript at all.
Added there, and both languages widened to `variable_declarator value:` and
`binary_expression` operands — the gaps review named between what A2 claimed
and what it matched.

Nothing covered `GITNEXUS_DISK_SCOPE_INDEX`. The new parity test asserts the
seal changes no edge, and was verified against an emulation of the original
bug: same-file readers vanish and only the cross-file reader survives.

* fix(typescript): anchor property_signature to declared shapes

Review blocker, and it reproduces end to end. `property_signature` occurs in
EVERY object_type in the TS grammar, not only in an interface body or an
alias's object type, so inline parameter types, inline return types and nested
object types all matched — and the enclosing-container walk hung each one off
the nearest class, interface or alias. Measured against the unanchored rule,
all four appeared as members of shapes that do not have them:

  Property:contracts.ts:Svc.inlineParamOnlyKey
  Property:contracts.ts:Repo.inlineQueryOnlyKey
  Property:contracts.ts:NestedConfig.nestedOnlyKey
  Property:contracts.ts:buildInline.inlineReturnOnlyKey@46:33

When the inline member shares a name with a real one — `run(opts: { retries:
number })` inside a class that declares `retries` — `addNode` is
first-write-wins and the two distinct symbols merge onto one node, so every
context()/impact()/rename() answer about that field describes the merge. The
sibling JS object-literal rule in this same PR is anchored for exactly this
reason; this is the TypeScript half of the same fix.

`(A (B))` matches DIRECT children, so nested object types are excluded by the
same anchor rather than by a second rule.

The first version of these tests was VACUOUS and is recorded here because the
reason generalizes: a collision and a correct exclusion both leave exactly one
node behind, so counting ids cannot distinguish them. Every inline member in
the fixture is now uniquely named, which is the only thing that discriminates —
verified by restoring the unanchored rule and watching exactly those four
assertions fail. A fifth test asserts anchoring costs no real member.

* fix(analyze): correct the numbers feeding the graph-write-collapse guard

Review blocker. The predicate itself held under adversarial probing; every
defect was in what it was handed and what happened after it fired.

(a) `expected` was wrong twice. Under `GraphEmitSink` streaming the bulk types
leave the heap at parse time and never enter `relationshipCount`, so the count
understated the real volume by most of it and the ratio passed trivially —
on `force === true` runs, which include crash recovery AND the
`analyze --force` retry this check's own warning tells the operator to run.
Adds the manifest totals, the same correction the buffer-pool hint in this file
already makes for the same reason. Separately, an incremental run persists only
the changed subgraph while both counts are whole-scope: a 10,000-edge index
that lost 200 replacements reads 9,800 and is certified complete. The check is
skipped on that path rather than answered wrongly.

(b) A throwing edge count became a measured zero. `getLbugStats` initialised
its total to 0 and ran the query in a swallowing catch, so WAL/lock contention
during finalize — documented on this exact call — reported a healthy index as a
total collapse. It now returns `number | undefined`, and the caller requires
both a readable node count and a defined edge count.

(c) A total loss was exempted for being small. The min-edges rule tested
`expected` before looking at `persisted` at all, so `expected = 99,
persisted = 0` — every edge gone — stayed fresh and reported success. Total
loss is now decided first. The existing test asserted the defect; it now
asserts a PARTIAL shortfall, which is the case the exemption was written for.

(d) A detected collapse reported success and exited 0. It is different in kind
from the other incomplete reasons: those describe a run that did what it said
and left work for later, this one means most of your edges are gone and every
query answers a confident empty. The CLI now prints INCOMPLETE with the counts
and sets a non-zero exit code, and the flag crosses IPC so the worker cannot
send a clean `complete` either.

Nothing exercised this wiring — only the pure helper. Adds tests for all four,
each written so the pre-fix arithmetic fails it.

* fix(scope-resolution): keep unique-name property inference inside one language

The pass indexed `Property` nodes from the whole shared graph. Per-language
gating decides whether it RUNS for a language; it never restricted which nodes
could be TARGETS. So the only carrier of a name could be in another language
entirely, and a read here resolved to it on name uniqueness alone — no owner,
no file, no call path.

Reproduced: a Java class declaring `private int loyaltyPointsBalance` and a JS
`cfg.loyaltyPointsBalance` on an untyped parameter produced an ACCESSES edge
from the JS function to the Java private field. Confidence does not mitigate
it, because `minConfidence` defaults to 0 — the tier is only a filter for
consumers who ask for one.

Candidates are now restricted to files in the language's own `parsedFiles`,
which is a precise restriction rather than a heuristic and needs no new node
property.

Every other fixture in the suite is single-language, so this could not be
caught anywhere by construction. The new fixture is deliberately polyglot and
asserts both halves: no cross-language edge, and a same-language unique name
still resolves.

Known and not addressed here: the index is still O(total graph nodes) and is
rebuilt once per qualifying language, the per-language whole-graph-scan pattern
`phase.ts` hoisted out for `sharedNodeLookup`. Hoisting it belongs with that
machinery rather than in this fix.

* fix(processes): explore siblings in source order, log the exhausted budget

`slice(0, maxBranching)` selected the FIRST N callees while `pop()` explored
them LAST-first, so the trace budget went to the last-declared branch. For
`main() { init(); loadConfig(); run(); shutdown(); }` the walk spends itself on
`shutdown` and can drop `init` — the earliest steps of a flow, which is the
opposite of what a process describes. Selecting first-N and exploring last-first
was simply inconsistent; pushing in reverse makes the stack pop in source order.

Measured on the reporting repo, this costs depth: 6-8 step processes go 168 ->
146 of 816. Still roughly three times the pre-PR baseline of 50, and the right
trade — a deep branch is no longer reached by accident of being declared last.

The remaining limit is the BUDGET, not the traversal: with a fixed quota a deep
branch declared after enough shallow ones is not reached at all. That is now
asserted in both directions rather than left implicit, and the walk logs when it
stops with branches unexplored — a silently truncating cap reads as "this is
everything", the same confident-empty answer this work is about, and the repo
already sets that precedent for `dispatchFanoutSkipped`.

Removes the second depth test, which was vacuous: the note twelve lines above
it already said a `processProcesses`-level depth assertion passes under BOTH
traversals, and measured it does — breadth-first yields the same deepest
stepCount of 8, so it passed with the production change reverted. Traversal
order is asserted against `traceFromEntryPoint` directly; what is observable at
the pipeline level is which traces survive selection, which the diversity tests
cover.

Also renames `queue` to `stack` and corrects the BFS references in the module
docstring and the function's own JSDoc, which is what an IDE hover shows.

* fix(impact): carry riskNote onto ambiguous candidates and separate UNKNOWN's two meanings

Two problems on the ambiguous fan-out, which builds its own candidate object
rather than returning the single-symbol shape.

The narrowed type had no `riskNote` field and never read one, so a candidate
that resolved and found no callers reported `risk: UNKNOWN` with nothing
attached — losing the entire point of the change on the path where the reader
has the least context, since the name is ambiguous there by definition.

And `UNKNOWN` used to mean exactly one thing on this path: the probe threw. The
zero-caller branch gives it a second meaning, so an all-UNKNOWN fan-out could
no longer be told apart from a broken one. Candidates now carry `probeFailed`,
and the comment asserting the old reading is corrected.

Also aligns `gitnexus-web`, which review flagged as giving a different verdict
for the same symbol. That surface answers in prose rather than an enum, and its
message said the symbol "appears to be unused (not called by anything)" — the
identical false certainty in words. It now carries the same MEANING rather than
the same field. Downstream wording is unchanged: no outgoing dependencies
really is a fact about the symbol itself.

* test: replace assertions that cannot fail

Four from review, each satisfied by the defect it was meant to catch.

`new Set(props).size === 2` over two different literal strings can only ever
be 2, so it could not detect the node merge its title promises — that is a
difference in COUNT, now asserted on the raw array.

The ambiguity test asserted only an empty edge set, which is satisfied equally
by "the gate fired" and "the name was never looked up". It now also requires
the ambiguity counter to have moved.

`Interface|Property` was listed as a structural-pair sentinel beside
`TypeAlias|Property`, but both its labels are in the SCOPE_BRIDGE cross-product
so the pair is generated by construction and the sentinel cannot fail. Dropped
rather than left reading as coverage; `TypeAlias|Property` is the load-bearing
one.

`TypeAlias|Method` was declared in the schema with no fixture emitting it — a
declared pair no emitter exercises is indistinguishable from a missing one
until an analyze aborts on a real repo. Adds a method-shaped alias member, and
the suite requires sentinels to actually appear, so it is not vacuous.

* docs: document the new incomplete reason, the UNKNOWN verdict and the id churn

Review found the code changes landed without the guidance around them, and an
agent following this repo's own rules would have been told the wrong thing.

`graph-write-collapsed` joined `INDEX_INCOMPLETE_REASONS` with no Sign block
and no recovery section, while the precedent it cites
(`embedding-checkpoint-pending`) has both — so `gitnexus status` would surface a
new string naming silent wrong answers with nothing explaining trigger or
remedy. Added to RUNBOOK and GUARDRAILS, including why this reason alone also
fails the exit code.

`AGENTS.md` said MUST warn on HIGH or CRITICAL and never mentioned UNKNOWN, and
the shipped impact skill's risk table had no UNKNOWN row and still implied
few-callers ⇒ LOW. An agent obeying those rules literally sees `risk: UNKNOWN`
and proceeds, which negates the change the verdict exists to make. Both copies
of both skills updated.

`MIGRATION.md` now records that process ids do not survive this release —
positional ids plus depth-first tracing, source-order siblings and round-robin
selection mean `proc_7_handle` is a different flow afterwards. Bounded honestly:
nothing in-repo joins on a raw process id, so it is index churn, not a broken
consumer.

`ARCHITECTURE.md`'s scope-resolution stage list gains the two new stages.
The guide skill's node list gains `Property` and `TypeAlias` — the two node
types this work most prominently creates.

Also, on the pair-CSV preflight review asked to confirm: the hard abort IS
deliberate, because a fallback recovering zero rows is the confident-empty
failure this work targets. But the transient the message itself names — a second
concurrent analyze sharing `.gitnexus/csv` — is a race, so the check now
re-looks three times over ~150ms before declaring the file gone. Long enough to
ride out a rename, far too short to mask a file that is genuinely missing.

* fix: drop redundant TypeAlias pairs and keep bare identifiers off class members

Two regressions the full suite caught after the review fixes, both real.

`schema-pair-coverage` failed with eleven hand-declared pairs that a rule now
generates. Adding `TypeAlias` to `LINKABLE_LABELS` — needed so
`resolveDefGraphId` can bridge an alias def to its node — also makes it a
SCOPE_BRIDGE source and target, so the cross-product produces `File|TypeAlias`,
`TypeAlias|Property` and nine others that round 1 had declared by hand. Removed;
the invariant is that no pair is both generated and hand-declared.

This also changes what the structural-pair sentinel means, and the comment is
corrected rather than left overstating it: `TypeAlias|Property` is no longer
load-bearing because the label is off the generated grid — it is load-bearing
because it now depends on `TypeAlias` being IN `LINKABLE_LABELS`. Remove it and
the pair stops being generated while the hand declaration is gone, which is the
same state that silently breaks alias consumer edges.

`block-scope-shadowing` failed because a bare identifier resolved to a class
`Property`. `class Box { baseUrl = '...'; pick() { const baseUrl = ...; return
baseUrl; } }` linked the block-local read to `Box.baseUrl`, duplicating the
legitimate `this.baseUrl` edge. A bare identifier is not a member access: with
no receiver there is no object whose property it could be, and in JS/TS a field
read needs `this.`. Receiver-less read/write sites no longer accept `Property`
hits; callables stay reachable, so `cb = save` naming a top-level function is
unaffected.

That defect PREDATES this branch's TypeScript captures — JavaScript has emitted
bare-identifier reads since A2 and no class fixture exercised the shadow. The
TS parity added here is what surfaced it.

Golden snapshot regenerated after verifying the drift line by line: exactly
+5 USES from type annotations in the mini-repo, every pre-existing count
unchanged, so nothing was rewired.

* perf(scope-resolution): share the property-name index across language passes

Review follow-up. `indexPropertyNodesByName` scanned every node in the graph
and was rebuilt inside each qualifying language pass, reintroducing exactly the
pattern `phase.ts` hoisted out for `sharedNodeLookup` — whose comment records
why it matters: "the previous per-language rebuild burned that CPU+heap N times
and, on a huge repo, a tiny language's full-graph copy overlapped the next
language's — a real contributor to the scope-resolution memory peak."

Built once in `phase.ts` beside `sharedNodeLookup` and `sharedFnNodeIndex`, and
threaded through the same `prebuilt*` seam, so tests and isolated calls still
build their own.

Sharing is only safe because the per-language restriction MOVED rather than
disappeared: the shared index is whole-graph, and candidates are filtered to
the language's own files at lookup time. That also fixes a subtlety the
per-language build had backwards — the cap now applies to the FILTERED set, so
a name carried by forty properties across a polyglot monorepo but only two in
the language being resolved is still answerable, where a global cap would have
refused it.

The tri-state at the lookup boundary is deliberate and the three outcomes are
not interchangeable: no property of this name in this language (nothing to say,
and NOT an ambiguity), too many to choose between (reportable), or a list to
narrow.

Caught mid-change by the polyglot fixture: an intermediate state shared the
index without moving the filter, and the cross-language edge came straight
back. That test earning its keep twice is the reason it exists.

* feat(scope-resolution): report when a field's only anchor is another language

Round 3, found OUT-OF-SAMPLE — six field names appearing in no prior report, so
nothing here was tuned against them. All six answered 0 backend ACCESSES while
their definitions sat in `apps/research-dashboard/**`: TypeScript only. The
in-sample set scored 5/5 and the out-of-sample set 0/6, and the gap is entirely
this.

Per-language inference (`3c5eadc7`) is right and stays. What was wrong is that
declining is INVISIBLE: an empty result for a field anchored only in TypeScript
is byte-identical to an empty result for a field nobody reads. One says "look
in the other language or grep"; the other says "delete it". That is the same
confident-empty failure this series exists to remove, one surface over — and
this time the missing fact is about the ANALYZER's reach rather than the code.

Declines are now counted and named, with the languages the anchors actually
live in, kept SEPARATE from ambiguity because the remedies differ: ambiguity
wants better receiver typing, this wants an anchor in the reading language.
Collapsing them would tell a reader the wrong thing to do. A non-zero count
warns at analyze time regardless of dev mode.

The facts are published as `PipelineResult.propertyInference`, which they had
to be for any of this to be testable — and that exposed a second defect. The
round-2 ambiguity assertion, which I told the reviewer of #2856 I had
strengthened, read its stat off a `scopeResolution` field that does not exist
on PipelineResult: the `if (undefined) return` guard swallowed it and the test
passed with the production code deleted. Both that assertion and the new ones
now read the published field, and the guard is an assertion rather than an
escape. Verified by deleting the counter and watching them fail.

Reported by the same round-3 method note that caught it: verifying a fix
against the cases it was written for only proves those cases pass.

* feat(context): explain an empty property result caused by a cross-language anchor

The other half of R3-1. The analyze pass now knows which fields it declined to
link because every definition of the name lives in another language; this puts
that fact where it is actually read.

`context()` on such a field previously returned an incoming list byte-identical
to a genuinely unread field. The two demand opposite actions — "look in the
other language, or grep" versus "delete it" — so the difference has to travel
with the answer:

  unresolved: property reads of this name were NOT linked: every definition of
              it is typescript, and name inference does not cross languages.
              An empty or short incoming list here is not evidence the field is
              unused — confirm with a text search, or give it an anchor in the
              reading language.
  anchorLanguages: ['typescript']

Carried through repo meta because the graph cannot answer it: the unlinked
reads mint no edge and no node, so the only record is the pass that declined
them.

Keyed on the NAME, not on the resolved label. Gating on `=== 'Property'` was
tried first and is wrong — the label reads `''` on this path for a plain
Property node, so the gate silently suppressed the entire feature while every
test still passed. Caught by asserting the field is DEFINED rather than
guarding on it, which is the same anti-pattern that made two earlier
assertions vacuous. The meta list only ever contains property names, so
matching the name is itself the type check.

Cached per (index, indexedAt): `ensureInitialized` deliberately avoids a
per-call `loadMeta` because every tool routes through it, so this re-reads
exactly when a re-analyze could have changed the answer and never otherwise.

* feat(scope-resolution): report declined property reads for opt-out languages too

Generalizing R3-1 rather than waiting for it to be re-reported in the other
direction. The reported case was a JavaScript read whose only anchor was
TypeScript; the mirror — a TypeScript read anchored only in JavaScript — was
still silent, because a language that sets `fieldFallbackOnMethodLookup: false`
had the whole pass skipped, and skipping emission also skipped REPORTING.

Detection is not inference. Counting what could not be linked asserts nothing
about what it means, so `reportOnly` runs the pass for its facts while emitting
no edge, and the opt-out keeps protecting exactly what it protected before.

Two things this turned up that a single-instance fix would have missed:

The cross-language fixture could NOT prove `reportOnly` is load-bearing — the
per-language candidate filter already blocks those edges, so the assertion
passed with the flag forced off. The case that discriminates is a SAME-language
TypeScript read that name inference could legitimately link and the opt-out
forbids; forcing the flag off there emits `readsTsOnly -> tsOnlyBudget`, which
is the violation.

Getting to that case surfaced a sibling gap, recorded but NOT fixed here: the
object-literal `Property` rule is JavaScript-only, so `const CONFIG = { ... }`
in a `.ts` file mints no node and its keys are invisible. The first draft of
this fixture used exactly that shape and could not discriminate for that reason.
It is the TypeScript half of R2-1a and wants its own change, not a rider on
this one.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(typescript): index object-literal keys, as JavaScript already did

The sibling recorded in `0c5a4f64` and deliberately left out of it. Both the
named object-literal rule (A1/A5) and the identity-wrapper rule (R2-1a) lived
only in JAVASCRIPT_QUERIES, so the single most common config idiom in
TypeScript —

    export const tsRuntimeConfig = { tsConfigRetries: 3 };

— minted no node for any key. `context()` answered "Symbol not found" and a
precise read through the holding variable had nothing to resolve to.

TypeScript sets `fieldFallbackOnMethodLookup: false`, so these gain no
name-based inference. What they gain is the PRECISE path, which is the route
TypeScript is meant to use: `tsRuntimeConfig.tsConfigRetries` has a typeable
receiver and now resolves. A read through an untyped receiver stays unresolved
and, since `0c5a4f64`, is reported as such rather than answering an empty set.

Scoped exactly as the JavaScript rules are — bound to a variable, and for the
wrapper only the three functions that return the argument they were given —
with the same `Object.entries` negative control pinning the allowlist.

Found by fixture, not by report: the first draft of the `reportOnly` test used
a TS `const CONFIG = { ... }` as its discriminator and could not discriminate,
because the shape mints nothing. That is the whole argument for sweeping a
class instead of waiting for each instance to be filed.

SCHEMA_BUMP 47 -> 48: parse-time, so a warm cache replays ParsedFiles carrying
none of these matches and the keys stay invisible.

* feat(scope-resolution): anchor anonymous returned object literals to their function

The last gap round 3 named, and the dominant shape in idiomatic JS: 437
`return {` sites in a single backend directory of the reporting repo, including
the ~25-field payload of its entire signal pipeline. The literal binds to
nothing, so its keys could not even be named — "who reads wickRatio?" had no
symbol to ask about.

The enclosing FUNCTION is the owner: the literal is that function's return
shape, a contract its callers consume. Keys qualify as `<function>.<key>`, so
two functions returning the same name stay two shapes rather than one merged
symbol, and multiple returns in one function stay distinct by position.

RECONCILING THIS WITH R2-1b, which deliberately modelled returned keys as WRITES
to avoid adding same-named competitors to narrowing. These are definitions, but
narrowing now ranks DECLARED anchors — named literals, class fields, interface
and alias members — strictly above return shapes. A name that already resolved
keeps resolving to what it resolved to before, so the competitor problem R2-1b
was avoiding cannot come back. Mutation-checked: dropping that ranking breaks
five pre-existing R2 resolutions.

That also required an R2-1b assertion to change, and the change is a
strengthening rather than a concession. It asserted `toHaveLength(1)` — no new
definition — as a proxy for "adding definitions must not move an existing
answer". The proxy is now false while the property still holds, so the property
itself is asserted directly.

No `HAS_PROPERTY` edge from the function: that would be a `Function|Property`
relation pair the schema does not declare, and an undeclared pair does not
degrade — it throws and kills the whole analyze. That already shipped once in
this PR.

Two things found by dumping rather than assuming, both fixed here:

SHORTHAND keys were not matched at all. `return { symbol, interval, score }` is
the commonest spelling and the reporting repo's own payload is mostly this form,
but tree-sitter models it as `shorthand_property_identifier`, which `(pair)`
does not match. Caught by dumping the golden fixture and seeing a literal
returning `{ level, message, timestamp: Date.now() }` had indexed only
`timestamp`. Now covered in return position AND in the variable-bound rule,
which had the same gap.

Provenance was flagged by owner-presence, which mislabelled the anonymous case:
a callback's return shape yields no name to qualify by, so it looked like a
DECLARED anchor and would have outranked real declarations. Flagged by position
now — a different question from whether a name could be derived.

SCHEMA_BUMP 48 -> 49. Within one PR the version only has to differ from main's,
but a build stamped 48 was installed and used to analyze before these captures
existed, so caches stamped 48 carry none of them — the intermediate-build hazard
this ledger already records for 33/34.

Golden regenerated after verifying the drift: exactly +10 Property and +10
DEFINES, every pre-existing count unchanged.

* fix(scope-resolution): rank production anchors above test fixtures

Found by testing R3-4 on the reporting repo instead of on its fixtures. Anchoring
returned literals took `wickRatio` from 6 definitions to 13 — and backend reads
still resolved to nothing, because SEVEN of the new JavaScript anchors compete
and four of them are in `tests/`. A test constructs throwaway shapes carrying
production field names; a read in shipped code cannot mean one of them.

Applied before the declared/return-shape split, because "is this the shipped
program" is the stronger signal — a declaration inside a test fixture is still a
test fixture. Skipped when the READER is itself a test, since a read there
legitimately means the test's own shape.

The first version of this test was vacuous and the mutation check caught it: the
reader sat in the same file as the production anchor, so the same-file tier
resolved it whether or not this tier existed. The reader now lives in a file
that imports neither anchor, which leaves production-vs-test as the only thing
that can decide.

Honest about what this does NOT do: it narrows `wickRatio` from seven candidates
to three, and three functions in different files each returning that field is
GENUINELY ambiguous — refusing is correct, and the ambiguity is now counted and
named rather than silent. The reported question ("who reads wickRatio?") is
answerable only where one producer exists; where several do, the honest answer
is the list of producers, which R3-4 made nameable for the first time.

* feat(scope-resolution): resolve members through a call result's return shape

The question three rounds of reports could not answer, and the one narrowing
must refuse by design: a field produced by SEVERAL functions. A read of
`spike.wickRatio` could mean any producer, so name inference correctly declines
and no amount of tier-tuning changes that. It needs evidence, not inference.

The evidence existed in two halves that had never been joined. The call-result
type binding (`const alert = formatSpikeAlert(row)` binds `alert` to a TypeRef
whose rawName is the callee) predates all of this work; it simply had nothing to
resolve to when the callee returned an anonymous literal, because an anonymous
literal named nothing. R3-4 gave it a name. Joining them:

    const alert = formatSpikeAlert(row);
    alert.wickRatio   ->   Property:...:formatSpikeAlert.wickRatio

Precise, at ordinary emission confidence, and it works EXACTLY where narrowing
cannot: several producers sharing a field name stop being competitors because
the receiver says which one. Runs before the name fallback and claims its sites,
so a precise answer is never second-guessed by a name match.

Measured on the reporting repo: 1,410 precise edges, and all six fields round 3
verified OUT-OF-SAMPLE go from 0 backend readers to 7, 11, 10, 7, 6 and 14.
Round 3 scored 0/6 on that set; this is 6/6.

The bound is asserted, not just documented: a read off a BARE PARAMETER has no
binding here, because typing it needs the caller's type to flow in — that is
inter-procedural and genuinely larger. Those reads still fall through to name
inference and are still reported when it declines. The fixture has two producers
sharing a field name precisely so the test cannot pass by name matching, and
mutation-checking the owner lookup fails it.

No SCHEMA_BUMP: this is scope resolution, not parse-time capture, so a warm
cache already carries everything it reads. Noted in the ledger because the
reflex on this branch has been to bump, and an unnecessary bump costs every user
a full re-parse.

* Revert "return-shape anchoring" (R3-4/R3-5): it degrades query

Reverts af5eec5c, c764847a and 4f93f32e. The capability was real and measured —
all six fields round 3 verified OUT-OF-SAMPLE went from 0 backend readers to
7/11/10/7/6/14, 0/6 to 6/6, via 1,410 precise return-shape edges. It is reverted
anyway, because it costs more than it buys in its current form.

`cli-limit-e2e` caught it. Bisected to af5eec5c: on the mini-repo fixture,
`query('message')` returned two processes before and NONE after. The mechanism
is not window displacement — that hypothesis was tested with a partition that
kept function-local property keys from taking window slots, and it changed
nothing. Indexing the keys of every returned literal adds many nodes whose names
are ordinary words, which moves the BM25 CORPUS statistics: "message" gets less
discriminating, and `createLogEntry` — the callable that actually carries the
processes — stops ranking at all. A corpus-level effect is not repairable by a
tie-break.

Trading a regression in `query`, one of the core tools, for coverage in
`context` is the wrong trade, and shipping it because the number was good would
be the same mistake this PR spent three rounds removing: a confident answer that
is worse than the honest one.

What the work established, and what re-landing needs:

  - The mechanism is right. Joining the existing call-result type binding to a
    named return shape resolves `alert.wickRatio` by EVIDENCE, which is why it
    succeeds exactly where name inference must refuse.
  - The cost is search dilution, and it needs to be measured on BM25 ranking
    BEFORE the capture lands — not discovered by a downstream e2e test.
  - The likely shape of the fix is keeping return-shape keys out of the text
    search corpus while keeping them in the graph, which needs persisted
    provenance rather than the in-memory flag used here.

Kept: everything through 8972d223, which is verified green.

* feat(search): give the index a notion of DETAIL symbols, and re-land R3-4/R3-5

Reverts the revert. The return-shape work was correct and measured — 1,410
precise edges, and all six fields round 3 verified out-of-sample going 0/6 to
6/6 — and it was dropped for a regression that was really a MISSING LAYER: the
search index had no way to say "this symbol is queryable but is not a concept a
text search should surface on its own".

Indexing the keys of anonymous returned literals adds many nodes whose names are
ordinary words (`message`, `value`, `timestamp`). Without that notion they
compete on equal terms in FTS, push the CALLABLES named after the same concept
past the search's row cap, and `query('message')` returned two processes before
and none after.

The layer, rather than a workaround:

  - `Property.isDetail`, persisted. A Property-only column, which that table
    already precedents with `declaredType`, set where the key is minted.
  - `buildFtsQueryCypher` filters on it for the Property table, BEFORE the row
    cap. That placement is the whole point: rows crowded out never reach the
    caller, so no downstream re-ranking can recover them. Two downstream fixes
    were tried first — a tie-break and a partition of the merge window — and
    recovered nothing, which is what located the real seam.
  - `IS NULL`-tolerant, so an index written before the column existed still
    answers instead of returning nothing.

Verified by the A/B that found the regression: the query's result order is now
byte-identical to the pre-R3-4 baseline —
`proc_0_processrequest, proc_2_errormiddleware, Function:createLogEntry,
Property:LogEntry.message` — with the return-shape coverage retained.

The determinism guard then caught prose in the new DDL comment containing the
token this repo scans for, which would have read as an unordered query. Reworded;
that suite is doing exactly its job.

* feat(processes): let a flow end where the program reaches outward

The item three rounds kept circling. A trace was only emitted at a node with NO
outgoing calls, so a real flow — scan, score, arm, PLACE THE ORDER — is always a
PREFIX of some longer chain that runs on into date helpers, and could never be a
process in its own right. Ranking could not fix that; the flow was never a
candidate to rank.

What blocked it was signal granularity, and the fix is the layer that was
missing rather than a heuristic. GitNexus already knew where the program reaches
outward: the parse phase collects fetch calls and ORM queries carrying
`filePath` + `lineNumber`. Those facts only ever produced FILE-level edges
(`File -[FETCHES]-> Route`), which cannot end a trace — every function in a file
containing one would qualify. Attributing each site to the function whose range
CONTAINS it turns the same facts into the function-level signal the walk needs:
no new extraction, no new relation pair, no schema change. Innermost wins, so a
closure that performs the call is the sink rather than the function spanning it.

Three touch points, and the second is the one that makes or breaks it:

  - the walk emits at a sink AND CONTINUES, so `placeOrder` is an endpoint while
    `placeOrder -> formatDate` still exists separately;
  - subset-removal PRESERVES sink-terminated traces. A sink flow is by
    definition a prefix of the chain that runs past it, so emitting one at the
    walk and deleting it one step later would have been a no-op. Mutation-
    checked: removing this preservation fails all three sink tests, including
    the one asserting the sink is reached at all;
  - selection ranks sink-terminated above leaf-terminated, then by depth.

`processes` now declares `parse` as a dependency. It historically avoided that
on the grounds the dependency was spurious for a progress counter — it is no
longer spurious, so it is declared rather than reached for implicitly, and the
read fails open so a pipeline without that output detects no sinks instead of
losing every process.

Bounded honestly: this fires where fetch/ORM extraction fires. On the reporting
repo it will do nothing until route detection handles hand-rolled dispatchers,
since that codebase routes with `pathname === '/api/...'` on raw node:http and
produces zero Route nodes — a separate gap, and the next one worth closing.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(processes): the comment above the sink ranking still described it as unreachable

R3-6 taught the walk what a sink is, but the block explaining the ranking still
carried the paragraph written when that was out of reach — "a business flow
still cannot be a process in its own right ... fixing that means teaching the
walk what a sink is" — sitting directly above the code that does exactly that.
A reader arriving at `rankedByInterest` would take the limitation as current.

The measured-false fan-in finding stays; it is still true and still worth not
re-deriving. What replaces the stale half is the bound that IS current: sinks
fire where fetch/ORM extraction fires, so a codebase whose outward calls are not
detected as such still sees leaf-terminated traces only.

* feat(routes): read a route that is declared by a comparison, not by a framework

`route_map` on the reporting repo returned

    {"routes": [], "total": 0, "message": "No routes found in this project."}

for a codebase with SEVENTEEN route modules, an `apiRouteTable.js`, and 113
path comparisons. Not a partial answer — a statement about the code, and a
false one. Same confident-empty class as the rest of this branch, except here
it takes out a whole tool.

Four route-discovery paths existed — filesystem convention, single-file
framework route, cross-file framework route, decorator — and every one of them
needs a FRAMEWORK to declare the route. A raw `node:http` server declares it
the only way the language offers:

    if (req.method === 'GET' && pathname === '/api/live/portfolio') { … }

A path, a verb, and a handler. Nothing in the pipeline could read it.

The failure modes are not symmetric, so the rules are weighted accordingly: a
route this misses is a coverage limit, a route it invents is `route_map`
asserting something false. A comparison therefore qualifies only against a
demonstrable request path (`pathname`, `*.pathname`, `req.url`; `path` is
excluded — in Node it is overwhelmingly `node:path` or a file location), and
anything untranslatable is dropped rather than approximated:

  - `pathname.startsWith('/api/')` is a namespace test; minting `/api` would
    claim a route nobody serves;
  - a bare `pathname === '/'` with no verb is more often the static-file
    normalisation branch (`pathname === '/' ? '/index.html' : pathname`) than a
    route — WITH a verb the intent is unambiguous, so that form IS taken;
  - an anchored regex converts only when its body is a literal path plus
    single-segment wildcards, so `/^\/api\/research-runs\/[^/]+$/` becomes
    `/api/research-runs/{param1}` while an optional group or an alternation
    bails.

Three things went in that nobody reported, each found by measuring rather than
by a second report.

`switch (pathname) { case '/api/x': }` is the same dispatch in different
syntax, and waiting for a bug report per shape is how a graph stays permanently
one idiom behind the code it indexes.

The reconciliation had to move up a level. The reporting repo keeps its path
table (`isKnownApiPath`) in one module and its handlers in sixteen others, so a
per-file rule sees each half separately and lists every route twice — once
verb-less with the table as its "handler", once properly. Measured: 22 of the
first 94 routes were that shadow. Only the whole registry can tell them apart,
so the rule lives in the routes phase and touches dispatch-guard routes only —
a framework route without a verb is method-agnostic BY DECLARATION (a Django
function view, a Laravel resource), a fact rather than a weaker observation.

And a path composed from a constant needed folding. One of those seventeen
modules writes every one of its routes as `` `${autoTradeBasePath}/rules` ``,
where the base is an alias of a module-level literal. Refusing that lost the
whole file — and lost it INVISIBLY, since a module with unfoldable paths and a
module with no routes are the same empty answer. Same-file only, literals only,
one alias hop, and it refuses on ambiguity: a name declared twice with
different values is dropped rather than guessed, because a partially-folded
path is a wrong route and a wrong route is the failure this module exists to
avoid.

Wiring is a LanguageProvider hook, not a language check in shared code.
`extractDecoratorRoutes` was already the general "route from this file's own
AST" channel rather than a decorator-only one — express routes have flowed
through it as `decorator-express.get` for a while — so the transport, the
`(method, url)` dedup and the handler-symbol resolution all apply unchanged.
`ExtractedDecoratorRoute.source` carries the one thing that genuinely differs:
a decorator route is DECLARED, a dispatch-guard route is INFERRED. The walk is
gated behind a substring pre-filter so it costs nothing on files that cannot
produce a route, and the gate is sound by construction — every rule reaches a
route only through `isPathExpression`, which needs one of exactly those tokens.

SCHEMA_BUMP 49 -> 51, two entries. Decorator routes are worker output carried
in the parse cache, so a warm cache replays results predating the extractor and
`route_map` stays empty — the symptom this fixes, wearing the mask of "the
extractor does not work". The second bump is the v34 hazard tripping again: a
build stamped 50 had already been used to analyze before folding existed, so
caches stamped 50 carry the unfolded route set. Caught by measuring — the
post-folding run came back suspiciously fast and would have reported the
pre-folding number.

* fix(scope-resolution): ask whether a value def is FUNCTION-LOCAL, not whether it is module-level

The locality filter for value references was written as an ALLOWLIST of
module-scope defs, and that shape cannot express a class member. A value def has
three homes, not two: module level, a function body, and a CLASS body. Java and
C# fields and Python class attributes live in the third, so an allowlist keyed on
"module level" excludes every one of them by construction.

The guard written to make that safe could not fire either. The set arms whenever
a Module scope is FOUND, and Java has module scopes while having no module-level
values at all — so for Java it armed permanently empty, which is exactly the
state the guard exists to distinguish from "there genuinely are none".

Inverting it removes the class. A blocklist of defs positively identified as
function-local fails safe: a Java field, a Python class attribute, or a language
whose scopes could not be inspected is emitted rather than dropped. That also
retires the arming flag — an empty blocklist and an uninspected one mean the same
thing, and both mean "emit". The failure mode moves from "silently deletes an
edge class" to "retains an inert local", which is the right direction for a tool
whose stated principle is that a confident empty answer is the worst outcome.

MEASURED, because the review that prompted this reported it as a P0 deleting
every Java/C#/Python field ACCESSES edge, and that half does not reproduce.
Instrumenting the bridge over `java-write-access` shows ZERO value-ACCESSES
candidates reaching the filter: Java field references resolve to a `Property`
target and `isValueDefinitionLabel` covers only Const/Static/Variable, so the
filter is never consulted there. Pipeline-level edge sets are byte-identical with
the filter forced on and forced off, across four shapes — Java cross-file field
writes, Java cross-file constant reads, Java bare same-class constant reads, and
a Python module-constant/class-attribute mix. The defect is real and latent; the
blast radius is not. Fixed anyway, because the predicate asks the wrong question
and the next change that makes the bridge the sole emitter would ship the
deletion for real.

New `value-ref-locality.test.ts` pins the invariant triple — local dropped,
module-scope kept, class member kept — by TARGET rather than by `reason`. The
per-language suites filter on `rel.reason === 'read'|'write'` while the bridge
stamps `scope-resolution: read|write`, so they are blind to bridge-side change in
both directions. The file states plainly which half gates the mechanism (JS,
mutation-verified) and which gates only the outcome (Java, because the mechanism
is unreachable there), so it cannot be mistaken for a stronger gate than it is.

* fix(docs): restore the agent guidance a generated-block refresh deleted

Commit 8f8261021's message is entirely about cross-language anchor reporting; it
also regenerated the `gitnexus:start` block in AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md against a
LOCAL, non-PDG index and swept six documentation/config files along with it. The
review caught this and it is correct. Restored:

  - the index stats, which regressed 248612 symbols / 565510 relationships /
    918 flows -> 29969 / 118986 / 762 — my machine's index described as the
    project's;
  - the whole `pdg_query` bullet and the PDG half of the impact bullet, while
    both capabilities remain live in `mcp/tools.ts` and `local-backend.ts`;
  - the "Inline staleness signal" section in the guide skill, content that never
    left `origin/main` and that this branch had no reason to touch;
  - `.mcp.json`, which had moved from `npx -y gitnexus@latest mcp` to a bare
    `gitnexus` — a fresh clone with no global install gets a dead MCP server.

The worst of it is self-inflicted in a specific way worth naming: commit
411cac9b9, four hours earlier on this same branch, ADDED the instruction telling
agents not to read `risk: UNKNOWN` as an all-clear. The refresh deleted it. So
the branch shipped a new UNKNOWN verdict and simultaneously removed the guidance
for reading it — the exact false-safe this PR exists to remove, reintroduced one
layer up in the docs.

Re-applied that guidance, and found the drift is wider than reported. The review
noted the `.claude/` copy contradicting the plugin mirror; in fact the UNKNOWN
block was present in ONE of five shipped distributions. `gitnexus/skills/` (the
npm package), `gitnexus-cursor-integration/`, and `.agents/` were missing it too,
so every non-Claude consumer of this skill had the old table.

`shipped-skills-sync.test.ts` passed 54/54 through all of that. Its byte-identical
check covers only the plan/work/review/lfg family, and the standard skills are
guarded solely by per-skill fragment lists — so a fragment nobody listed is a
fragment nothing protects. Added the UNKNOWN fragments to that list, plus a
`copies.length > 1` assertion so an empty copy list cannot make the loop vacuous.
Verified it fails against the pre-fix tree.

* fix(scope-resolution): require the return-shape producer to RESOLVE, not merely to name-match

Review finding 2, reached independently by three Claude lanes and two Codex
legs, and reproduced here. `emitReturnShapeMemberAccesses` took the receiver's
type binding, then filtered a WHOLE-GRAPH property index with `idNamesMember` —
a textual match on the node id. Any node whose id happened to read
`<producer>.<member>` qualified, in any file and any language, and it emitted at
the 0.9 PRECISE tier where a `minConfidence` floor cannot filter it out. The
sibling unique-name pass was given a per-language restriction for exactly this
hazard; this pass consumed the same shared index with none.

Three guards, catching different shapes:

  - the producer must RESOLVE to a definition (`findCallableBindingInScope` — a
    CALLABLE lookup: the producer is the function whose return shape owns the
    member, and it resolves through finalized import bindings so a producer in
    another file still yields its own file);
  - the member must live in that definition's file;
  - that file must belong to the language being resolved.

The third is not redundant with the second, which is the part worth recording.
A receiver typed by CONSTRUCTION (`const bound = new Loyalty()`) resolves through
the shared class registry, which is polyglot — so the producer resolves into
`Loyalty.java`, its members legitimately live in that same file, and file
equality waves the cross-language edge straight through.

Also fixes the sibling P2: a site where the receiver IS typed to a producer that
owns no such member now claims the site. That branch is the strongest negative
evidence the pipeline can produce, and letting it fall through meant the 0.5 name
fallback answered a question the precise pass had just DISPROVED — measured,
linking a read to an unrelated same-named key in another file.

`polyglot-property-isolation` gains the bound-receiver arm the review asked for,
and it is the right arm: the pre-existing case has an untyped receiver and so
only ever exercised the unique-name pass, while one extra token routes an
identical read through this one. Mutation-verified — restoring the pre-fix
matching makes exactly the new leak assertion fail. The first version of that arm
was silently vacuous (it introduced a JS key of the same name, which destroyed
the fixture's Java-only premise), which is why it now asserts on the TARGET FILE
rather than on the absence of a name.

KNOWN LIMIT, stated rather than papered over: a member-call producer
(`const r = svc.make()`) binds `svc.make`, which resolves to no callable, so this
pass now declines it. Codex B3 raised that converse case and it is real. Fixing
it means typing `svc` and then finding `make` on that type — a larger piece of
work, queued for the follow-up PR. Declining is the correct interim behaviour:
the alternative is matching `make.<member>` by name across the graph, which is
the fabrication this commit removes.

* fix(scope-resolution): resolve the import map by point lookup so the seal cannot empty it

Review finding 4, reproduced end-to-end by two lanes: the same commit and the
same repo produced a DIFFERENT graph depending on `GITNEXUS_DISK_SCOPE_INDEX`.

`buildDirectImportMap` built `scopeToFile` by walking `parsed.scopes`. The
out-of-core seal replaces `emitParsedFiles` with a scope-STRIPPED copy — that is
its documented contract, scopes are reachable only via `scopeTree.getScope`
afterwards — so under the seal the map came out empty, every `directImports`
lookup returned undefined, and tier-2 narrowing died repo-wide.

The reporting is the worse half. The loss surfaced as `ambiguous`, which means
"several candidates and the pass refused to choose". The truth was "the evidence
was discarded one function earlier". A reader acting on that would go looking for
better receiver typing to fix a problem that was not there.

This is the SECOND consumer of `parsed.scopes` on this branch to hit the seal.
The first was hoisted above it. This one is converted to the point lookup
instead, which is the stronger fix: a point lookup survives the seal by contract,
so there is no ordering left for a future edit to get wrong.

The parity assertion that would have caught it now exists. The sealed harness in
`javascript-const-references` already ran the fixture both ways, but every
assertion in it pinned ONE field's readers — which is exactly how a second
instance slipped in, since no assertion happened to cover a narrowed name. It now
also compares the WHOLE ACCESSES edge set between the two runs, as a sorted diff
so a failure names the edges that moved, with a non-empty guard so two empty sets
cannot compare equal and assert nothing. Mutation-verified: forcing the map empty
fails it.

* fix(scope-resolution): bind a producer's own returned key to itself, and stop claiming uniqueness for a ranked answer

Review finding 3, accepting the two defects it demonstrates and declining the
remedy it proposes. Both halves are mutation-verified.

1. A SITE INSIDE ITS OWN RETURN SHAPE NOW BINDS TO ITS OWN KEY.

   `export function buildB(row) { return { tickIntervalMs: row.b } }` writes the
   key that IS `buildB.tickIntervalMs`. Ranking declared anchors above return
   shapes is correct for a READ through a receiver, but applied to this site it
   handed the write to a same-named module const that `buildB` never touches —
   a wrong edge — while the node the key actually defines was left with no
   writer at all. Both halves wrong from one rule applied to the wrong shape.

   Checked before every other rule, because it is evidence rather than ranking:
   the owner qualifier on the candidate id and the enclosing callable are the
   same symbol. Nothing outranks that.

2. THE TIER NO LONGER LIES.

   `workspace-unique` is a claim that exactly one node in the workspace carries
   the name — a fact about the graph, and the label a reader trusts most. An
   answer reached by FILTERING (tests down-ranked, return shapes down-ranked)
   is a weaker claim, and it was reported under the same label. The edge is
   unchanged; what it is allowed to say about itself is not. `narrowed` now
   counts these correctly too, since it keys off the tier.

WHAT I AM NOT DOING, and why. The review proposes dropping the same-file and
imported-file tiers "and keeping only genuine workspace-uniqueness". That would
revert the measured R2 result taking backend readers of `exitMinAtrMult` from
0 to 24. Workspace uniqueness was already measured too strict on that repo: the
field carries 26 Property definitions — 16 in one-off scripts, 7 in the
frontend, one in a test, and exactly one in the backend that reads it. Strict
uniqueness declines all 24.

The alternative suggestion — require the receiver to bind to the owning object —
has the same effect by another route: the population this pass exists for is the
untyped option bag, whose receiver binds to nothing. Requiring a binding turns
the pass off for its own use case. So the two demonstrated defects are fixed and
the capability around them is kept, at half confidence, naming its inference in
the reason string, and honoured only where `fieldFallbackOnMethodLookup` allows.

The R3-5 precision test needed rescoping rather than relaxing: it asserted that
EVERY edge to the contested field is a precise return-shape edge, which the
producer's own (correct, name-tier) write now violates. It asserts the reader
edges are precise and the producer's write binds to its own key — two different
claims reached two different ways, which is what the code now models.

* test(bench): re-baseline the JS/TS scope-capture fingerprints for this branch's capture additions

The `Cross-language scope-capture fingerprint + scaling guards` CI step was
failing on TypeScript and JavaScript, and it had been failing for the whole PR —
the branch changed both SCOPE queries without ever updating the guard's
baseline. It only surfaced now because a merge conflict had prevented CI from
running at all, so nothing reported it.

Re-baselined per the file's own instruction ("re-baseline intentionally on a
legitimate capture change"), and verified first rather than rubber-stamped. The
capture-name sets in both scope queries, diffed against `origin/main`:

  TypeScript  + @reference.read.identifier      (A2, bare-identifier reads)
              + @reference.type                 (R2-2, type references)
  JavaScript  + @reference.read.identifier      (A2)
              + @reference.read.destructured    (R2-1c)
              + @reference.write.property-key   (R2-1b)

Nothing removed on either side. A pure superset is the check that no EXISTING
capture moved — which is the failure mode a fingerprint guard exists to catch,
and the reason to look before regenerating.

Consistent everywhere else too: `capture_groups_small`/`_large` are unchanged
(4503/14403) because those measure the SYNTHETIC scaling source this branch does
not touch, so only the fixture-corpus number moves — 2097 -> 2338 across 21 new
lang-resolution fixtures, 146 -> 151 files. Scaling stayed linear and inside
budget (typescript 1.116, javascript 1.010, both < 1.5), so the added rules cost
no super-linear time. Prior and new hashes are recorded in the baseline note, as
every previous entry in that file does.

* test(bench): re-baseline the receiver-resolution drop guard for the new WRITE site kind

Second of the two bench guards that had been failing for the whole PR without
anyone seeing it — CI could not run while the branch was conflicted, so both
went unreported until the merge cleared.

The drift is a new site KIND, not a movement in an existing one:

    totalDropsAllKinds  129 -> 140
    bySiteKind          {call: 102, read: 27}
                     -> {call: 102, read: 27, write: 11}

`call` and `read` are byte-identical, which is the check that matters. This
branch added write-site captures the corpus never had — `@reference.write.
property-key` (R2-1b record construction) and the destructured-read rules — so
write sites reach receiver resolution for the first time, and 11 of them have a
receiver that does not resolve. A drop is the honest outcome for those; the
alternative is the name-inferred guess this series spent three rounds bounding.

Verified it is NOT caused by this session's review fixes before re-baselining:
removing the `memberNotOnShape` site-claim added in 69047086 and re-running gives
the identical 129 -> 140 / write: 11 drift, so the movement predates today and
belongs to the capture work, exactly as the arithmetic above says.

The sibling `scope-emission` guard still PASSES untouched, and the fingerprint
guard passes after 20a937f4 — so all three arms of the benchmarks job are green
locally.

* fix(routes): track boolean polarity in dispatch guards, so a negated condition cannot invent a route

Reproduced exactly as reported. `dispatch-guard.ts` refuses to inherit a verb
from an `if` whose `else` branch holds the comparison — the module's own doc
comment explains why: that branch runs precisely when the condition did NOT
hold, so attributing it is backwards. `!` is the same fact written as an
operator, and it was not handled. A stated invariant with half an
implementation, which is worse than an absent one, because the comment reads as
though it were covered.

Measured against the real extractor before fixing:

    if (!(pathname === '/api/admin'))                  ->  '' /api/admin   INVENTED
    if (!(req.method === 'GET') && pathname === '/x')  ->  GET /x          INVERTED
    if (!(req.method === 'POST' && pathname === '/w')) ->  POST /w         BOTH

And the review is right that this is not additive-only. Driven through the real
pipeline with a policy module that serves nothing plus a one-line route table,
the invented `GET /api/report` collected into `verbedUrls` and
`reconcileDispatchGuardRoutes` then EVICTED the true verb-less route for that
path. A false route deleted a real one. After the fix that repo yields exactly
one route, verb-less, path intact.

Parity, not presence: `!!x` is `x`, so counting negations and testing the parity
is the only rule that keeps a doubly-negated guard working. A negated VERB drops
to verb-less rather than dropping the route — `!(method === 'GET')` means every
method except GET, which no single value expresses, while the path evidence is
untouched. Applies to the regex arm too; `!/^\/api\/x$/.test(pathname)` had the
identical hole.

Deliberately NOT keeping the `statement_block` break from the suggested patch.
It is unreachable — the `!` in `if (!cond) { … }` lives in the condition, a
SIBLING of the block, never an ancestor of anything inside it, and the only
shape that puts a `!` above a block is an IIFE, which the function-boundary stop
catches first. Unreachable in the UNSAFE direction, too: breaking early
under-counts negations, and an under-count reads a negated guard as positive and
invents the route. Verified by mutation — with the break present, deleting it
fails nothing; the other three guards each fail a test when removed.

Six new cases, all previously absent (`grep -c '!(' ` over both test files was 0,
and the only negation covered was `!==`, the form that already worked).

* test(bench): re-baseline the emit-persistence byte-identity fingerprint for the isDetail column

The third bench guard this branch left red, and the one the earlier
rebaseline pass missed: the `benchmarks (GITNEXUS_BENCH)` job has never
succeeded once in eleven attempts, and since step 11 aborts the job, the
two steps after it — the streaming PDG-emit guard and the cross-language
pipeline benchmarks — have never executed at all.

    [emit-persistence --check] FAIL: byte-identity fingerprint drift
      (got 4ee15e74…, expected 69e9182a…)

Cause is this branch's own `isDetail` BOOLEAN on the Property table
(PROPERTY_SCHEMA), which `streamAllCSVsToDisk` writes as one more header
field and one more cell per Property row.

Verified header-only rather than regenerated on faith. Dumping every CSV
the bench emits on both `origin/main` and this branch and diffing them
per file (name, byte length, sha256): the file set is identical at 35
CSVs, 34 of the 35 are byte-identical, and the sole difference is
property.csv growing 68 -> 77 bytes as the header gains `,isDetail`. The
synthetic graph mints no Property nodes, so not one data row moved —
which is the thing this fingerprint exists to catch. Both timing gates
were green throughout (scaling_ratio 0.783 against a 1.8 budget,
elapsed_ms_large 229ms against the 1000ms backstop), so no throughput
claim is being rebaselined away.

Justification recorded in a `_rebaselined_<reason>` key, the convention
bench/scope-capture/baselines.json already sets, and the note now says so
explicitly so the next regeneration records its reasoning too.

* perf(processes): build each trace key once, not once per comparison

`deduplicateTraces` held its `join('->')` inside the `some()` callback, so
every already-kept trace had its key rebuilt from scratch against every
candidate: O(T*U) joins of O(depth * id-length) characters. The
allocation, not the substring scan, is what the pass spends its time on.

Nothing about breadth-first search made that safe. It only hid the cost by
keeping traces short — measured on this repo the walk averaged 4.3 steps
before D1 and 9.4 after, which roughly doubles both the number of
surviving traces and the length of every key, so the same quadratic that
was affordable under BFS is about six times the work under DFS. That is
the whole of the slowdown D1 was carrying; the depth-first walk itself is
cheaper than the queue it replaced (`pop()` against an O(frontier)
`shift()`), and its frontier is bounded by depth rather than by breadth.

Hoisting the join into a `uniqueKeys` array removes the multiplication.
Measured back to back on one host, 5 reps, 25k callables, production sink
path (main -> this branch before -> this branch after):

    deep_chain      876.8ms -> 1233.1ms -> 101.9ms
    mixed_cycles    731.4ms -> 1130.6ms -> 132.8ms
    shallow_wide    572.5ms ->  531.8ms ->  49.6ms

and on the real gitnexus/src corpus (11,490 symbols) process detection
goes 204ms -> 89ms against main, having been slower than main before.

Output is unchanged, which is the property that matters here: swapping the
file back and forth and diffing every non-timing field across all sixteen
shape x scale x sink-variant configurations gives no difference, and the
real corpus returns the same 936 processes / 4,648 steps either way. Sink
keys are pushed alongside the traces they belong to, so the comparison set
is the same set it always was.

* fix(processes): type the parse-output read as ParseOutput

The R3-6 sink read declared its own structural shape for the parse output
instead of naming `ParseOutput`, which made it the only one of the five
parse consumers in the repo not bound to the real type — cross-file.ts,
orm.ts, routes.ts and tools.ts all pass the type argument.

`getPhaseOutput` is a raw `as T` cast, so a local shape checks nothing at
runtime and only severs the compile-time link: renaming `allFetchCalls` on
`ParseOutput` would still compile here and silently detect zero sinks
forever. Verified with a real `tsc --noEmit --strict` run over exactly that
rename — the typed consumers error, this one did not. The runtime `.filter`
stays, since it is the only thing actually guarding the cast.

Also brings the phase docblock back in line with the deps array, which was
missing `structure` (pre-existing) and `parse` (added by this branch), and
records the two parse fields the phase now reads.
