# HyperTwist Phase J-ET validation nave-state ledgers and bounded ongoing-state transept preparation packet

Date: 2026-06-01

## Objective

Extend the bounded validation lane with first-party nave-state-ledger and
ongoing-state-transept surfaces without widening HyperTwist into generic
nave-state platforms, transept dashboards, or release authority.

The `nave-state` / `ongoing-state transept` naming is an explicit local
continuation inference from the landed lectern/pulpit/ambo/minbar/cathedra/bema/sedilia/choir/stall/pew
pattern because the current roadmap canon names `Phase J-ET` but does not yet
spell out its noun pair.

## Planned surfaces

- validation nave-state ledger contract
- validation ongoing-state transept boundary
- bundled runtime accessors for both surfaces
- focused automation coverage for contract and boundary resolution

## Guardrails

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

## Intended package posture

- `package/hypertwist-validation-nave-and-ongoing-transept`
- nave continuity remains bounded to replay-anchor, benchmark-drift,
  manual-waiver, and continuity-context evidence
- ongoing transept remains bounded to same-lane runtime evidence and explicit
  exclusion framing

## Next seam after landing

- `Phase J-FD`
