# HyperTwist Deep-Source Closeout And Legal Evidence Sequence

Created on `2026-05-26`.

## Purpose

This document is the HyperTwist restart endpoint for one specific question:

- was a deep-source repo pass actually closed end to end

It exists to stop future sessions from treating a pass as complete when only:

- the packet was updated
- the root legal tracker was touched
- or the repo was merely source-read without the dependent canon being refreshed

It keeps these surfaces explicit instead of blended together:

- source-backed packet truth
- cross-lane authority and selective backfill
- feature-registry propagation
- skillization and command-surface posture
- repo-row legal tracking
- generated legal-evidence artifacts

## Use this as the current restart endpoint

If the question is whether a HyperTwist deep-source pass fully propagated, read
these in order:

1. `C:\HyperTwist\AGENTS.md`
2. `C:\HyperTwist\docs\REPO_LICENSE_TRACKING.md`
3. `C:\HyperTwist\docs\v6_5_deep_manual_pack\HyperTwist\LICENSETRACKING.md`
4. `C:\HyperTwist\docs\v6_5_deep_manual_pack\HyperTwist\FEATURE_REGISTRY.md`
5. `C:\HyperTwist\docs\ops\HYPERTWIST_CROSS_LANE_AUTHORITY_HIERARCHY_AND_RECONCILIATION_2026-05-20.md`
6. `C:\HyperTwist\docs\ops\HYPERTWIST_RETROACTIVE_AUTHORITY_AND_CLEANUP_BACKFILL_2026-05-20.md`
7. `C:\HyperTwist\docs\ops\HYPERTWIST_SKILLIZATION_AND_COMMAND_SURFACE_DOCTRINE_2026-05-21.md`
8. `C:\HyperTwist\docs\HYPERTWIST_REPO_LICENSE_EVIDENCE_AUDIT_2026-05-28.md`
9. `C:\HyperTwist\scripts\Write-HyperTwistRepoLicenseEvidenceAudit.ps1`

Do not answer that question from packet prose alone.

## Correct operating rule when deep-source evaluation resumes

For each resumed repo pass:

1. update the repo-specific source-backed packet, dossier, or standing note
   that actually owns the retained slice
2. if the pass materially sharpens a retained capability family, update:
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\v6_5_deep_manual_pack\HyperTwist\FEATURE_REGISTRY.md`
3. if later evidence materially changes a relied-on authority, route, width, or
   cleanup interpretation, apply selective backfill under:
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\ops\HYPERTWIST_RETROACTIVE_AUTHORITY_AND_CLEANUP_BACKFILL_2026-05-20.md`
4. update the cross-lane hierarchy doctrine itself only when the doctrine
   wording changed rather than only a repo-local overlay:
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\ops\HYPERTWIST_CROSS_LANE_AUTHORITY_HIERARCHY_AND_RECONCILIATION_2026-05-20.md`
5. if the pass changes wrapper-versus-feature, source-closed command, or
   operator-skill posture, update:
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\ops\HYPERTWIST_SKILLIZATION_AND_COMMAND_SURFACE_DOCTRINE_2026-05-21.md`
6. update the concrete repo-row legal call in:
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\REPO_LICENSE_TRACKING.md`
7. consult the policy-only legal doctrine in:
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\v6_5_deep_manual_pack\HyperTwist\LICENSETRACKING.md`
   - update that file too when the pass changes a general legal rule,
     README-only-MIT handling rule, generated-evidence rule, or custody-policy
     doctrine
8. when mirror custody or repo-root legal evidence changed, update:
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\HYPERTWIST_REPO_LICENSE_EVIDENCE_AUDIT_2026-05-28.md`
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\generated\license_audit\HYPERTWIST_REPO_LICENSE_EVIDENCE_AUDIT_2026-05-28.csv`
8a. if a retained repo URL is not publicly resolvable and no local mirror can be
    reviewed in the same pass, mark the row as an explicit
    `upstream-unavailable` exclusion in the manifest, generated audit, and root
    tracker instead of leaving it as a generic missing-path artifact
8aa. if the missing standalone row is only a historical alias and maintained
     public source surfaces already exist elsewhere, convert it into a
     historical alias row instead of keeping it in the active
     mirror-restoration queue
8ab. if HyperTwist later retains one or more of those maintained successor repos
     directly, intake each successor as its own manifest row, mirror, legal
     call, and audit entry instead of treating the historical alias row as a
     substitute
8b. if a manifest row points at a package subpath inside a mirrored monorepo
    and the parent git root resolves to the same repo URL, normalize that row
    under the parent root authority in the generated audit instead of leaving it
    as a generic non-standalone exclusion
9. if the repo resolves to `MIT`, also update:
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\generated\license_audit\MIT_LICENSE_TEXTS_2026-05-28\`
   - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\generated\license_audit\THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES_MIT_DRAFT_2026-05-28.txt`
10. if the `MIT` call is README-only or metadata-only, capture canonical `MIT`
    text in the MIT text folder and record the evidence path, source URL, and
    commit hash explicitly in the audit ledger and third-party notices draft
10a. if a non-`MIT` license is present only in repo-local package metadata and
     no root license file exists, record that as metadata-only evidence in the
     root tracker and generated audit, but keep it distinct from clear
     repo-root license-file evidence
11. rerun:
    - `C:\HyperTwist\scripts\Write-HyperTwistRepoLicenseEvidenceAudit.ps1`
12. answer status questions by naming:
    - the surface
    - the exact snapshot file
    - the date stamp
13. stage, commit, and push the bounded repo-root changes instead of leaving
    doctrine and legal-evidence work floating locally

## Closeout guardrail

Do not call a HyperTwist deep-source pass complete if it stopped at:

- packet plus root tracker
- packet plus root tracker plus one chat summary
- packet plus implementation closeout without the generated legal-evidence
  surfaces

On every deep-source pass, explicitly check:

- `FEATURE_REGISTRY.md`
- selective authority/backfill needs
- skillization doctrine when source-closed or wrapper posture changed
- `REPO_LICENSE_TRACKING.md`
- `LICENSETRACKING.md`
- the legal-evidence audit bundle
- MIT text-capture and third-party notices artifacts when `MIT` applies

## Current legal-evidence bundle

The current HyperTwist legal-evidence bundle is:

- markdown:
  - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\HYPERTWIST_REPO_LICENSE_EVIDENCE_AUDIT_2026-05-28.md`
- csv:
  - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\generated\license_audit\HYPERTWIST_REPO_LICENSE_EVIDENCE_AUDIT_2026-05-28.csv`
- MIT text capture:
  - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\generated\license_audit\MIT_LICENSE_TEXTS_2026-05-28\`
- MIT third-party notices draft:
  - `C:\HyperTwist\docs\generated\license_audit\THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES_MIT_DRAFT_2026-05-28.txt`

Interpretation rule:

- the root tracker remains the canonical repo-row legal ledger
- the generated audit bundle is the repo-local evidence capture companion
- neither one replaces the need to propagate legal or authority changes
  through feature, backfill, and skillization canon when those surfaces are
  actually affected
