# HyperTwist Phase J-ER validation stall-state ledgers and bounded ongoing-state consistory implementation packet

Date: 2026-06-01

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

## Landed surfaces

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

## Implementation notes

- the `stall-state` / `ongoing-state consistory` naming is an explicit local
  continuation inference from the landed lectern/pulpit/ambo/minbar/cathedra/bema/sedilia/choir
  pattern because current canon names `Phase J-ER` but does not yet spell out
  its noun pair
- added stall-state ledger contract data, ids, lookup seams, and bundled
  runtime accessors
- added ongoing-state consistory 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 stall-state and ongoing-state consistory posture first-party
  and runtime-evidence local
- do not widen into generic stall-state platforms or ongoing consistory systems
- do not widen into cross-product ongoing consistory ownership or stall
  orchestration
- do not widen into release-gate authority or public leaderboard logic

## Ladder status

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