# HyperTwist Phase J-EJ validation lectern-state ledgers and bounded ongoing-state council implementation packet

Date: 2026-06-01

`Phase J-EJ` is now landed locally as the one-hundred-fortieth bounded
validation seam in the first-party HyperTwist runtime-evidence ladder.

## Landed surfaces

- validation lectern-state ledger contract
- validation ongoing-state council boundary
- bundled runtime accessors for both surfaces
- focused automation coverage for the new contract and boundary

## Implementation notes

- added lectern-state ledger contract data, ids, lookup seams, and bundled
  runtime accessors
- added ongoing-state council boundary data, ids, lookup seams, and bundled
  runtime accessors
- extended the validation benchmark reference bundle and structural-validity
  contract with the new bounded seam
- kept package ownership first-party and runtime-evidence scoped

## Guardrails preserved

- keep validation lectern-state and ongoing-state council posture first-party
  and runtime-evidence local
- do not widen into generic lectern-state platforms or ongoing council systems
- do not widen into cross-product ongoing council ownership or lectern
  orchestration
- do not widen into release-gate authority or public leaderboard logic

## Ladder status

- `Phase J-A` through `Phase J-EJ` are now landed as the first bounded
  validation and benchmarking ladder
- the current deliberate next seam is:
- `Phase J-FD`
