# HyperTwist Phase J-ES validation pew-state packets and bounded ongoing-state presbytery preparation packet

Date: 2026-06-01

## Objective

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

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

## Planned surfaces

- validation pew-state packet contract
- validation ongoing-state presbytery boundary
- bundled runtime accessors for both surfaces
- focused automation coverage for contract and boundary resolution

## Guardrails

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

## Intended package posture

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

## Next seam after landing

- `Phase J-FD`
