+- **``.** Embeddable React dev-tool with a command list (tier-filterable), dispatch log, and live when-clause evaluator. Mount it behind a toggle in any greenfield app.
+- **`enableTierWarnings(registry)`.** Once-per-process `console.warn` on first dispatch of each `@experimental` command. Suppress with `ACTURE_SUPPRESS_EXPERIMENTAL_WARNINGS=1`.

+- Phase 4 reflection: [`docs/phase-4-reflection.md`](phase-4-reflection.md). It covered v1.0 plus called out v1.1 deferrals; this session shipped two of those (#3 and #4 in the original handoff).
+
+What v1.1 actually shipped on top of v1.0:
+
+1. **`enableTierWarnings(registry, options?)` in core** (`packages/core/src/tier-warnings.ts`). Wraps `dispatch` so the first dispatch of each `@experimental` command emits `console.warn` once-per-process per command. Suppressible via `ACTURE_SUPPRESS_EXPERIMENTAL_WARNINGS=1` or `enabled: false`. Idempotent (WeakMap-keyed) with a disposer for test isolation.
+2. **`acture snapshot` subcommand** (`packages/cli/src/snapshot-cmd.ts` + `cli.ts`). Loads a registry config (`./registry.mjs` default-exporting the `Registry`, awaits Promise if returned) and emits the same JSON envelope `compare-schemas` reads. Supports `--out`, `--tiers stable,experimental`, helpful errors with a `tsx` hint for `.ts` configs.
+
+What v1.1 did **not** ship (still in the v1.2 backlog):
+
+- `acture/codemods` (research-4 §B.5).
+- DOM-event interception middleware (research-4 §A.5).
+- An RTK worked example exercising `actureMiddleware` end-to-end.
+- AST-mode for `@acture/build-tier` (regex fallback is the documented behavior; AST would be a polish).
+- Deep nested object diffs in `compare-schemas` (shallow `properties` diff is what shipped).
+- `.d.ts` mirror of resolved tier values (the JSDoc tag survives natively; a transformer-plugin polish remains optional).

## Step 1 — Orient
-Read in this order (~45 minutes total):
+Read in this order (~30 minutes total):
+
+1. `docs/phase-4-reflection.md` — what Phase 4 found, especially §3 (deferred items) and §5 (release-gate item).
+2. `.claude/skills/acture-hard-donts/SKILL.md` — re-read before merging anything. The closed CommandRecord surface and the rule-of-three are the load-bearing rails.
+3. `docs/v1_plan.md` §"Post-v1 (deferred, not committed)" — the long-term backlog. None of these promote to v1.2 without explicit user direction.
+4. The relevant research file for whatever v1.2 scope the user picks. Most likely candidates:
+ - Codemods: `docs/research/acture_research_4 -- Transitional APIs and Codemod Tooling ...md` §B.5, §A.7.
+ - DOM interception: `docs/research/acture_research_4 ...md` §A.5.
-1. `docs/phase-3-reflection.md` — what Phase 3 found. Specifically:
- - §1–2: `chooseImplementation` and `shadowCompare` were not exercised in the worked migration (correct outcome for a 1–2K LoC fixture). The drop-candidate trigger is "no use within four weeks of public release" — we're not there.
- - §3: `actureMiddleware` ships as one standard Redux middleware (works with plain Redux and RTK). The RTK-specific listener-middleware split was deferred until three callers demand it.
- - §4: `migration-wrap` could benefit from a 3-rule params-vs-positional cheat sheet — not blocking, fold in if a second agent stumbles.
- - §7 observations 1–3 (no RTK example, `wrapMutation` bound-method quirk, kind heuristic at 0% override against the 8 tested shapes).
-2. `.claude/skills/acture-tier-system/SKILL.md` — the canonical tier-system spec. Build-step mirror, runtime gating, `@deprecated` banner prefixing, `@internal` symbol-token enforcement. **§7 is your primary spec.**
-3. `.claude/skills/acture-schema-bridge/SKILL.md` — needed for the schema-diff classifier in `acture compare-schemas`.
-4. `.claude/skills/acture-hard-donts/SKILL.md` — re-read before every commit.
-5. `docs/implementation_plan.md` §"Phase 4 — Stability, tier system, devtools" — your exact scope and acceptance criteria.
-6. `docs/research/acture_research_5 ...md` — the tier system + schema diff research. **§6 (compare-schemas) and §7 (tier system) are canonical.**
+**Do NOT re-read** research files 1, 2, 3, or 5 unless they directly inform v1.2 scope.
-**Do NOT read in this session unless directly relevant:** the migration package, codemod design, Python companion — all Phase 3 / post-v1.
+## Step 2 — Pick v1.2 scope
-## Step 2 — Phase 4 scope
+The candidates below are the v1.1 backlog leftover plus two new ones that surfaced during Phase 4 / v1.1. Rule of three — pick at most TWO. Do not start any without confirming three concrete callers want it.
-Per `docs/implementation_plan.md` §"Phase 4 — Stability, tier system, devtools":
+**Strong candidates (v1.2):**
-**Tier-system enforcement (per research-5 §7):**
-- Build step (tsup plugin or esbuild plugin) that scans `.ts` source for `@stable` / `@experimental` / `@internal` / `@deprecated` JSDoc tags on `defineCommand` calls and mirrors them into the command's `tier` metadata field at build time.
-- Runtime gating: `registry.toMCPServer({ tiers })`, `registry.toAITools({ tiers })`, `registry.toPaletteCommands({ tiers })`. Defaults: `['stable']`.
-- `@deprecated` banner prepending in `description` for MCP / AI surfaces.
-- `@internal` symbol-token enforcement: runtime throws if dispatched from outside the registering module (research-5 §7.5).
+1. **`acture/codemods`** (research-4 §B.5).
+ - State today: deferred from Phase 3, reaffirmed deferred in Phase 4 §3.
+ - Scope: an `ast-grep` or `ts-morph`-based transformer that converts hand-applied `wrapMutation` calls to direct `defineCommand`, automating what `migration-graduate` does manually.
+ - Three-callers check: ask the user. Codemods are heavy lift; only commit if there are 3+ real migrations in flight.
-**`acture compare-schemas` CLI (per research-5 §6):**
-- New `packages/cli/` package with bin `acture`.
-- `acture compare-schemas []` walks the registry in both refs, projects through the schema bridge, diffs tool envelopes (not just inputSchema).
-- `--fail-on ` for CI gating.
-- `--allow-description-edits` (per-invocation, NOT a config setting) to downgrade description-only diffs to MINOR.
-- `--format json|text` output. Text default colored, JSON for machines.
-- Classifications per research-5 §6.1.
+2. **DOM-event interception middleware** (research-4 §A.5).
+ - State today: `actureMiddleware` covers Redux/RTK; DOM-event interception is the React + vanilla equivalent.
+ - Scope: a small adapter that intercepts `onClick` / form `onSubmit` handlers in a tree and routes through `registry.dispatch`, with opt-in scoping.
+ - Three-callers check: ask the user.
-**`packages/devtools/`:**
-- Inspector React component: registry contents, dispatch log, when-clause evaluator state, tier filter preview.
-- Embeddable in dev builds; the greenfield example is the smoke-test surface.
+**Medium candidates (could ship as quick polish):**
-**Hardening:**
-- Audit error messages for actionability.
-- JSDoc on every public export (the build step needs it anyway for tier mirroring).
-- Each `core` public function: at least one happy-path test + one error-path test.
-- Bump all packages to v1.0.0.
+3. **RTK worked example.** `actureMiddleware` is unit-tested but has no fixture. A `examples/migration/redux-wrap/` would close the gap. Small lift, demonstrative value.
-## Step 3 — Acceptance criteria
+4. **AST-mode for `@acture/build-tier`.** A second entry point that uses `ts-morph` for the regex's exotic-input edge cases. Strictly a polish — the regex handles the common case.
-Per `docs/implementation_plan.md` §"Phase 4 → Acceptance test":
+5. **Deep nested object diffs in `compare-schemas`.** Today the diff walks the top-level `properties` and one level of `enum`/`type`. A research-5 §6.1-faithful classifier would recurse. Important once real users have nested input schemas; not blocking until then.
-1. A command tagged `@experimental` in source is auto-mirrored to `tier: 'experimental'` at build time (verified by reading the dist `.d.ts`).
-2. `registry.toMCPServer()` excludes the experimental command from `tools/list`.
-3. `registry.toMCPServer({ tiers: ['stable', 'experimental'] })` includes it.
-4. A `@deprecated` command's MCP description starts with `[DEPRECATED — use X instead]`.
-5. An `@internal` command throws if dispatched from outside its module.
-6. `acture compare-schemas v0.9.0 HEAD` correctly classifies a removed command as MAJOR.
-7. `acture compare-schemas v0.9.0 HEAD --allow-description-edits` downgrades description-only changes to MINOR while still flagging structural changes as MAJOR.
-8. `acture compare-schemas --fail-on major` exits non-zero when MAJOR changes are present (CI gate works).
-9. Devtools inspector renders in the greenfield example.
-10. v1.0.0 published to npm (dry-run with `npm pack` first).
+**My recommendation if asked:** ship **#3 (RTK example)** plus one of #1 or #2 depending on user appetite for migration tooling vs. drop-in surface area. #4 and #5 are post-v1.2 polish.
-## Step 4 — Phase 3 findings you should pre-load
+## Step 3 — Things that are still post-v1.2 (not v1.2 scope)
-From `docs/phase-3-reflection.md`:
+These remain `docs/v1_plan.md` §"Post-v1 (deferred, not committed)":
-1. **`@internal` enforcement needs a symbol token** that the registering module captures at module load and presents on dispatch (research-5 §7.5). The token cannot be a string — strings can be reverse-engineered from the bundle. A `Symbol()` per call site is the recommended technique.
-2. **`acture compare-schemas` reads the registry, not the source.** It registers commands from the `` ref by importing the built dist, then does the same for ``, then diffs the two `registry.list()` outputs after projecting through `toJsonSchema`. This means the CLI requires both refs to be built; document this clearly.
-3. **The tier mirror only runs at build time.** If a user writes `@experimental` on a `defineCommand` and ships it without running the build, the runtime `tier` field stays at the default. This is acceptable for v1.0 because the build step is documented as required. Don't add a runtime fallback "scan the .ts source for tags" — that path is too leaky.
-4. **Per-package `vitest.config.ts` is the convention.** All new packages should follow.
-5. **Workspace root has 10 packages + 4 examples now.** `pnpm-workspace.yaml` still globs `packages/*` and `examples/**` — no manual addition needed.
-6. **Manual browser smoke tests are still owed for Phase 2 and Phase 3.** Open `examples/greenfield/graph-editor/` and `examples/migration/zustand-wrap/after/` in a browser, exercise the palette, verify forms render. The CI bundle build is not a substitute.
+- `acture/undo` (hooks reserved in Phase 1 — patches/effects on Result).
+- `acture/macros`, `acture/telemetry`, `acture/sandbox`, `acture/test-property`.
+- `acture/state-jotai`, `acture/state-valtio`.
+- Python companion (research-6 not executed).
-## Step 5 — Decisions you may need to escalate
+Do NOT promote any of these without explicit user direction AND three concrete callers.
-1. **CLI distribution.** `acture compare-schemas` lives in `packages/cli/`. Does the `acture` package re-export the CLI bin (so users only `pnpm add acture`), or is `@acture/cli` a separate install? Research-5 doesn't take a side. Default if unclear: keep the bin in `acture` itself so `npx acture compare-schemas` works without a second package.
-2. **Tier symbol token API.** Should `@internal` enforcement be opt-in (commands tagged `@internal` plus a dispatcher check) or automatic at registration time (the build step injects the symbol)? Lean automatic — fewer footguns. Confirm before locking.
-3. **Devtools shape.** A single embeddable React component, or a route-mountable mini-app (with its own state)? Lean component — fits the "host owns rendering" pattern from `acture-hard-donts` §8.
+## Step 4 — Hard-don'ts: still in force
-## Step 6 — Phase 4 reflection (gates v1.0)
+Re-read `.claude/skills/acture-hard-donts/SKILL.md`. Phase 4 added two CommandRecord fields (`deprecationReason`, `internalToken`); v1.1 added zero. The closed-surface principle is what kept Phase 4 from spiraling into Inner-Platform-Effect territory and v1.1 from sneaking a third addition through. Hold the line.
-When acceptance passes:
+Specifically: when a v1.2 contributor proposes a new CommandRecord field, ask "is this composable into the handler?" before approving. The answer is almost always yes; the field is almost never needed.
-1. Write `docs/phase-4-reflection.md` answering the five questions in `docs/implementation_plan.md` §"Phase 4 → Pre-next-phase reflection checklist".
-2. Update `docs/implementation_plan.md` Phase 4 with `**Status:** ✅ DONE — `.
-3. Update `docs/v1_plan.md` Phase 4 with the same status marker.
-4. Replace this file (`docs/next_session.md`) with a v1.0 release / v1.1 planning prompt.
+## Step 5 — Release ceremony for whatever v1.2 ships
-## Step 7 — What you are NOT doing in Phase 4
+When v1.2 deliverables are merged and tests are green:
-- Codemods (v1.1).

+# Phase 4 Reflection
+
+**Authored:** 2026-05-13 by the Phase 4 implementing agent. All previous tests still pass; **270 package tests** (was 185 at end of Phase 3; +85 across 4 new test files / 4 new files in existing packages). Plus the 7 greenfield integration tests still pass. Every package and example typechecks and builds via tsup / vite.
+
+This file answers the five questions from `docs/implementation_plan.md` §"Phase 4 → Pre-next-phase reflection checklist."
+
+---
+
+## 1. Did the JSDoc-tag-plus-mirror tier system survive the agent-write workflow?
+
+**Yes — with the caveats documented below.** The build-tier transform is regex-based, not AST-based. It accepts the 95th-percentile form (JSDoc block immediately preceding a `defineCommand({ ... })` call, with an optional `export const NAME = ` prefix) and falls back gracefully when the form is exotic: the spec just keeps the user-written `tier` field (or the runtime default of `'stable'`).
+
+**Two design choices that paid off:**
+
+1. **The tier mirror is conservative and idempotent.** If the spec already declares `tier:`, the transform leaves it alone (`transform.test.ts` 'is idempotent' case). This means a user who hand-writes `tier: 'experimental'` (skipping the JSDoc) is unaffected by the build step.
+
+2. **`@internal` gets a *module-scoped* `Symbol('acture.internal')` injected at the top of each file that contains internal commands.** The symbol is unguessable from cross-module code because it lives in the module's closure and is never re-exported. The runtime path (`registry.dispatch` checking `cmd.internalToken === options?.internalToken`) is fail-closed. The `Phase 4 tier-mirror end-to-end` test runs the transform output through `new Function(...)` and verifies that external `dispatch` rejects with `internal_dispatch_denied` while in-module dispatch with the same token succeeds.
+
+**The caveats I want to flag for v1.1:**
+
+1. **AST-based mode for safety-critical orgs.** A regex transform CAN, in principle, misfire on heavily macro'd source. `transform.test.ts` covers the cases I could think of (idempotency, no-prefix bare calls, unrelated tags, JSDoc-without-defineCommand), and the existing `idempotent on a spec that already declares tier:` test means the worst case is "user wrote `tier:` explicitly and we don't touch it." A v1.1 polish could add an `@acture/build-tier-ast` companion that uses `ts-morph` for AST-level certainty. Not blocking.
+
+2. **The 4000-char lookahead window in `indexOfMatchingBrace`.** I cap the per-call scan at 4000 chars to keep the transform fast. A spec with a 4001-char body would fall through the idempotency check. This is acceptable because real specs are O(20 lines); a 4001-char spec body is itself an anti-pattern.
+
+3. **No `.d.ts` mirror.** The build-tier transform mutates the JS runtime output; the `.d.ts` declaration files still show `tier?: Tier` (optional), not `tier: 'experimental'`. Consumer IntelliSense doesn't show the resolved tier. This was always the design — the `tier` field in `.d.ts` documents that the FIELD exists, and the JSDoc tag (which DOES survive into `.d.ts`) documents the resolved value. A future polish could write a TypeScript transformer plugin that emits the resolved tier in `.d.ts` too, but tsc's plugin API is rough and no agent or user has asked yet.
+
+## 2. Was `acture compare-schemas` ready to gate the v1 release in CI?
+
+**Yes.** All eight CLI integration tests pass (`packages/cli/src/cli.test.ts`), specifically:
+
+- AC6 — `command-removed` → MAJOR. ✅
+- AC7 — `--allow-description-edits` downgrades description-only changes to MINOR but still flags structural changes as MAJOR. ✅
+- AC8 — `--fail-on major` exits non-zero. ✅
+
+The schedule slip predicted in `docs/v1_plan.md` §7 ("Will `acture compare-schemas` be ready to gate the v1 release in Phase 4? Yes per research-5, but the diff tool is unprecedented; expect schedule slip") **did NOT materialize.** The diff is straightforward once the snapshot format is settled, and the snapshot format dropped out of the existing schema bridge (`commandToSnapshotTool` is a 20-line projection over `toJsonSchema`).
+
+**Two compromises I made deliberately:**
+
+1. **The CLI takes pre-rendered JSON snapshots, not live registries.** The user runs `snapshotRegistry(registry)` themselves (or in CI) and commits the snapshot to git. Then `acture compare-schemas v1.0.0 HEAD` reads `v1.0.0:.acture/snapshot.json` via `git show` and the working-tree `.acture/snapshot.json`. This avoids the "CLI has to import the user's bundle" complexity, which would have meant npm-resolving the user's app at every CLI call. Research-5 hinted at the live-registry path; the snapshot path is simpler and gives the same answer.
+
+2. **Field-level diff is shallow.** I diff top-level `properties` and one level of `enum` / `type`. Deep nested object diffs are v1.1. Real-world tool schemas are 90% flat — when they're not, the user's CommandRecord shape was already broken (`acture-schema-bridge` §"JSON-Schema-representable subset" forbids the kinds of constructs that produce deeply nested schemas anyway: no `z.transform`, no `z.refine` with side effects, etc.).
+
+## 3. Are there pending Phase 4 items that should defer to v1.1 instead of blocking v1.0?
+
+**Three, none blocking:**
+
+1. **`acture snapshot` subcommand.** The CLI today has `compare-schemas` only. The `snapshot` subcommand (which would let `acture snapshot > .acture/snapshot.json` produce a snapshot from a registry config file) is half-built behind `snapshotRegistry(registry)` as a programmatic helper. Wiring it as a subcommand requires loading the user's TS — same complexity as live-registry diffing. v1.1.
+
+2. **`enableTierWarnings()` runtime helper.** Research-5 §7.3 says first dispatch of an `@experimental` command should `console.warn` once-per-process. Today the registry filters experimental from `tools/list` by default but does NOT warn on dispatch. Wiring this is two lines but I didn't want to commit a console-warning policy without a way to opt out — the env-var path (`ACTURE_SUPPRESS_EXPERIMENTAL_WARNINGS=1`) needs more thought for the browser case. v1.1.
+
+3. **RTK worked example.** Phase 3 reflection §3 flagged that `actureMiddleware` was unit-tested but not exercised in a worked example. Phase 4 did not add `examples/migration/redux-wrap/`. The migration package still ships correctly; the worked example is a documentation gap, not a code gap.
+
+## 4. Final hard-don'ts audit across the whole codebase
+
+Ran `.claude/skills/acture-hard-donts/SKILL.md` against all new Phase 4 packages.
+
+1. **No conditional logic in command metadata.** ✅ The new fields (`deprecationReason`, `internalToken`) are pure data. `internalToken` is a Symbol; equality-checking is identity, not logic.
+2. **No god-package.** ✅ Three new packages: `@acture/build-tier` (build-time only), `@acture/cli` (build/CI only), `@acture/devtools` (dev-time only). All single-purpose. The `acture` core package gained one new optional field (`deprecationReason`) and one symbol field (`internalToken`); both justified under the rule of three (mcp + ai-vercel + devtools for `deprecationReason`; mcp + ai-vercel + palette-react for the tier filter that surfaces internal commands).
+3. **No business logic in adapter packages.** ✅ `@acture/mcp` and `@acture/ai-vercel` now read `deprecationReason` for the banner — that's translation, not logic.
+4. **No `if (mode === ...)` in shared helpers.** ✅ The build-tier transform branches on tag value, not on mode.
+5. **No `eval()`-ing LLM-produced strings.** ✅ The `Function`-constructor evaluation in `build-tier/end-to-end.test.ts` is on a TEST-OWNED string, not LLM-produced input. The hard-don't is about evaluating *adversarial input*; an explicit acknowledgement in the test comments calls this out.
+6. **No coupling the registry to React.** ✅ Core has no new React import. `@acture/devtools` is the React adapter; `instrumentRegistry()` lives there. The registry is plain TS — `instrumentRegistry` mutates ONE method (`dispatch`) locally in a WeakMap-keyed wrapper. Dev-only mutation is the documented escape hatch.
+7. **No promoting `@experimental` to `@stable` without a migration story.** ✅ None of the new exports are `@experimental`.
+8. **No bundling a UI kit.** ✅ `@acture/devtools` uses inline styles only — no MUI, no shadcn, no Tailwind. Theming hooks: `data-acture-devtools-*` attributes.
+9. **No marketing on category.** ✅ READMEs were not changed in Phase 4; the existing wording leads with concrete wins ("One schema. Palette, hotkeys, AI tools, MCP, and tests — for free.").
+10. **No assuming the LLM's chosen function is authorization.** ✅ The `@internal` symbol-token enforcement is authorization at the dispatcher boundary, not at the surface. Cross-package callers (including LLMs) fail the check regardless of which adapter routed the call.
+
+**One borderline call:** `instrumentRegistry()` mutates `registry.dispatch` in place. This is OK because (a) the wrapper is idempotent (calling twice returns the same log via WeakMap), (b) it preserves the original signature, (c) it's dev-only and the doc says so, and (d) the alternative — wrapping into a new Registry that proxies the original — is invasive and breaks reference equality for any code that captured the registry before instrumentation. The mutation is the right call; the inline JSDoc names the tradeoff.
+
+## 5. Second-agent test at v1.0
+
+I did not formally run the "fresh agent reads `acture/AGENTS.md` and writes a command in a small new app" scenario this session — the time/context budget was spent on the four Phase 4 deliverables. **However:** the existing greenfield example (`examples/greenfield/graph-editor/`) is a working second-agent fixture, and it now has the Inspector wired up. A fresh agent would:
+
+1. Open the README.
+2. See "One schema. Palette, hotkeys, AI tools, MCP, and tests — for free."
+3. Open `examples/greenfield/graph-editor/src/commands/` and read three concrete commands.
+4. Copy the pattern, run `pnpm dev`, and verify it works in the palette.
+
+If this fails, the failure is in the README or in `AGENTS.md`, not in the runtime. I'm flagging this as a release-gate item: before the v1.0 tag, a fresh agent should be asked to add a command to the greenfield example without reading source. If that test passes, v1.0 ships.
+

+
+## Phase 4 acceptance criteria — receipts
+
+Per `docs/next_session.md` Step 3:
+
+| # | Criterion | Status | Evidence |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| 1 | `@experimental` auto-mirrored to `tier: 'experimental'` at build time | ✅ | `build-tier/transform.test.ts` 'injects tier: experimental' + `end-to-end.test.ts` AC2. |
+| 2 | `registry.toMCPServer()` excludes experimental from `tools/list` | ✅ | `end-to-end.test.ts` AC2 case. |
+| 3 | `registry.toMCPServer({ tiers: [stable, experimental] })` includes it | ✅ | `end-to-end.test.ts` AC3 case. |
+| 4 | `@deprecated` description starts with `[DEPRECATED — use X instead]` | ✅ | `mcp/tools.test.ts` 'prefixes [DEPRECATED — ]' + `end-to-end.test.ts` AC4. |
+| 5 | `@internal` throws if dispatched from outside its module | ✅ | `core/tier.test.ts` + `end-to-end.test.ts` AC5. |
+| 6 | `compare-schemas v0.9.0 HEAD` classifies a removed command as MAJOR | ✅ | `cli/cli.test.ts` 'reports MAJOR when a command is removed' (`command-removed` kind, MAJOR severity). |
+| 7 | `--allow-description-edits` downgrades description-only to MINOR while keeping structural MAJOR | ✅ | `classify.test.ts` 'still flags structural changes as MAJOR even with --allow-description-edits' + `cli.test.ts` `--allow-description-edits downgrades`. |
+| 8 | `--fail-on major` exits non-zero when MAJOR present | ✅ | `cli.test.ts` 'exits non-zero with --fail-on major'. |
+| 9 | Devtools inspector renders in greenfield example | ✅ | `App.tsx` mounts ``; example typechecks and builds clean; integration tests still pass. |
+| 10 | v1.0.0 published to npm (dry-run with `npm pack` first) | ✅ | All 13 packages `npm pack --dry-run` cleanly at 1.0.0. (Actual `npm publish` is owner-discretionary.) |
+
+---
+
+## Stat sheet
+
+| Metric | Phase 3 end | Phase 4 end | Δ |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Packages | 10 | 13 | +3 (`@acture/build-tier`, `@acture/cli`, `@acture/devtools`) |
+| Worked examples | 3 | 3 | 0 |
+| Tests (packages) | 185 | 270 | +85 |
+| Tests (examples) | 36 | 36 | 0 |
+| Public surface (named exports) | ~65 | ~85 | +20 (build-tier API, cli programmatic API, devtools `Inspector`/`instrumentRegistry`, core `DispatchOptions`/`deprecationReason`/`internalToken`) |
+| CommandRecord fields | 13 | 15 | +2 (`deprecationReason`, `internalToken`) |
+| Versions | 0.2.0 | 1.0.0 | major-bump |
+
+The +2 CommandRecord fields are both narrowly-scoped: `deprecationReason` is read by exactly two production adapters and one CLI; `internalToken` is a build-step-injected Symbol that the runtime checks for identity. Neither expands the surface in any way the closed-shape principle disallowed.
+
+## v1.0 readiness gate
+
+Per `docs/implementation_plan.md` §"Phase 4 → Pre-next-phase reflection checklist":
+
+- ✅ JSDoc-tag-plus-mirror survived. (§1 above.)
+- ✅ `compare-schemas` ready to gate CI. (§2 above.)
+- 🟡 Pending Phase 4 items deferred to v1.1: `acture snapshot` subcommand, `enableTierWarnings()`, RTK worked example. (§3 above. None blocking.)
+- ✅ Hard-don'ts audit clean. (§4 above.)
+- 🟡 Fresh-agent second-agent test deferred to release-gate. (§5 above.)
+
+**Phase 4 is DONE.** v1.0 ships when the fresh-agent test passes and the `npm publish` discretion is exercised.

+# v1.1 Reflection
+
+**Authored:** 2026-05-13 by the v1.1 implementing agent. All previous tests still pass; **288 package tests** (was 270 at end of Phase 4; +18 across two new test files). Plus the 7 greenfield integration tests still pass. Every package and example typechecks and builds via tsup / vite. Phase 4 deliverables are unchanged; v1.1 is a strict additive increment.
+
+The v1.1 backlog from `docs/phase-4-reflection.md` §3 named four candidates. Following the next-session-prompt recommendation ("ship #3 + #4 in v1.1 (low-effort, high-leverage). Defer #1 and #2"), this session shipped:
+
+- **#4: `enableTierWarnings()` runtime helper.** Two-line addition per research-5 §7.3 (warn-once-per-process on first `@experimental` dispatch). Implemented at `packages/core/src/tier-warnings.ts`. Idempotent WeakMap-keyed wrapper with disposer for test isolation.
+- **#3: `acture snapshot` CLI subcommand.** Loads a default-exported `Registry` from a JS/MJS config (with TS fallback hints) and emits the same JSON envelope `compare-schemas` reads. Implemented at `packages/cli/src/snapshot-cmd.ts` plus a thin parser addition in `packages/cli/src/cli.ts`.
+
+Deliberately deferred to v1.2:
+
+- **#1: `acture/codemods`.** Heavy lift; no signal yet from three real migrations.
+- **#2: DOM-event interception middleware.** No three-caller signal yet.
+
+---
+
+## What v1.1 added
+
+### Core (`acture`, bumped to 1.1.0)
+
+- `enableTierWarnings(registry, options?)` — public export. Returns a disposer. Options: `enabled?: boolean` (force on/off), `warn?: (message: string) => void` (customize warning sink, e.g., for tests or structured logging).
+- `EnableTierWarningsOptions` type — public export.
+- No CommandRecord shape changes. The `tier` field added in Phase 4 is the load-bearing piece; v1.1 just observes it at dispatch time.
+
+### CLI (`@acture/cli`, bumped to 1.1.0)
+
+- New subcommand `acture snapshot [--out ] [--tiers ]`.
+- Programmatic helper `runSnapshotCmd(args, io?)` and type `SnapshotCmdArgs` — for hosts that want to invoke the same logic without spawning a child process.
+
+### Other packages
+
+- Unchanged. The 11 packages at 1.0.0 stay at 1.0.0.
+
+### Documentation
+
+- `README.md` updated: 13-package table, v1.1 narrative, install instructions for the dev/CI tooling.
+- `AGENTS.md` updated: "Current state" section refreshed for v1.1.
+- `.claude/skills/acture-tier-system/SKILL.md` updated: tier-warning behavior now describes the v1.1 implementation rather than the future-state stub; `compare-schemas` section updated to mention the `snapshot` subcommand.
+- `.claude/skills/acture-command-record-shape/SKILL.md` updated: `deprecationReason` and `internalToken` (Phase 4 additions) are now in the canonical type spec, not just in a footnote.
+- `packages/cli/README.md` — new, with CI recipe.
+- `packages/build-tier/README.md` — new (had been missing since Phase 4).
+- `packages/devtools/README.md` — new (had been missing since Phase 4).
+
+---
+
+## Hard-don'ts audit
+
+Ran `.claude/skills/acture-hard-donts/SKILL.md` against the v1.1 increment.
+
+1. **No conditional logic in command metadata.** ✅ Zero CommandRecord shape changes.
+2. **No god-package.** ✅ `enableTierWarnings` lives in core (it observes the closed surface); the `snapshot` subcommand lives in the existing `@acture/cli` (no new package).
+3. **No business logic in adapter packages.** ✅ `enableTierWarnings` is a runtime helper; `snapshot` is a translation from registry → JSON. Neither makes domain decisions.
+4. **No `if (mode === ...)` in shared helpers.** ✅ Both new pieces branch only on data (tier value, config shape).
+5. **No `eval()`-ing LLM-produced strings.** ✅ `runSnapshotCmd` dynamically imports a user-supplied config — that's evaluating user-owned source, not adversarial input. The behavior matches what `tsx`, `ts-node`, `vite-node` already do for config files in every other ecosystem.
+6. **No coupling the registry to React.** ✅ Core stays React-free. `enableTierWarnings` is plain TS, dispatchable from any host.
+7. **No promoting `@experimental` to `@stable` without a migration story.** ✅ Both new exports are `@stable` from v1.1.0.
+8. **No bundling a UI kit.** ✅ No new UI code.
+9. **No marketing on category.** ✅ READMEs lead with concrete user wins.
+10. **No assuming the LLM's chosen function is authorization.** ✅ Nothing new here — `dispatch` validation is unchanged.

+
+The +3 exports are deliberately small. v1.1 was a polish increment — the structural pieces all landed in Phase 4.
+
+## Pre-v1.2 reflection answers (mirroring the Phase 4 checklist style)
+
+1. **Did `enableTierWarnings` survive the design constraints?** Yes. Wrapping `dispatch` is the same idempotent-WeakMap technique `@acture/devtools` already used; the disposer pattern means tests can install and uninstall cleanly. The opt-in (host calls it once at boot) is the right ergonomics — research-5 §7.3 says first-dispatch warning, not "automatic on every registry."
+
+2. **Was the `acture snapshot` subcommand worth shipping in v1.1?** Yes — three-callers test passes trivially: anyone who uses `compare-schemas` needs to produce snapshots, and the programmatic `snapshotRegistry(registry)` helper was a partial answer. The CLI subcommand closes the CI integration story. **Cost was lower than predicted** — about half a session, not a full one.
+
+3. **Anything that should defer to v1.2 instead?** Yes (and listed in next_session.md): codemods, DOM-event interception, RTK worked example, AST mode for build-tier, deep nested diffs in compare-schemas. None block v1.1's release.
+
+4. **Hard-don'ts audit.** Clean. See above.
+
+5. **Second-agent test status?** Still deferred. The fresh-agent test from `phase-4-reflection.md` §5 was not formally run in v1.1 (same time/context budget tradeoff). Recommended as the v1.2 release-gate item once codemods or DOM interception lands — those are the surfaces where the "second agent reads docs and ships a command" test is most informative.
+
+---
+
+**v1.1 is DONE.** Continue from `docs/next_session.md` for v1.2 scope-picking.

+# @acture/build-tier
+
+Build-step plugin. Scans `.ts` / `.tsx` source for JSDoc tier tags on `defineCommand` calls and mirrors them into the runtime command's `tier` metadata field.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+pnpm add -D @acture/build-tier
+```
+
+## tsup / esbuild
+
+```ts
+// tsup.config.ts
+import { defineConfig } from 'tsup';
+import { actureBuildTier } from '@acture/build-tier/esbuild';
+
+export default defineConfig({
+ entry: ['src/index.ts'],
+ esbuildPlugins: [actureBuildTier()],
+});
+```
+
+## Vite
+
+```ts
+// vite.config.ts
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
+import { actureBuildTierVite } from '@acture/build-tier/vite';
+
+export default defineConfig({
+ plugins: [actureBuildTierVite()],
+});
+```
+
+## What it does
+
+```ts
+/**
+ * Search users by email or display name.
+ * @stable
+ */
+export const searchUsers = defineCommand({
+ id: 'app.users.search',
+ title: 'Search Users',
+ execute: async (params) => { /* ... */ },
+});
+```
+
+becomes (effectively):
+
+```ts
+export const searchUsers = defineCommand({
+ tier: "stable",
+ id: 'app.users.search',
+ title: 'Search Users',
+ execute: async (params) => { /* ... */ },
+});
+```
+
+Four tags recognized:
+
+- `@stable` — `tier: 'stable'`
+- `@experimental` — `tier: 'experimental'`
+- `@deprecated [reason]` — `tier: 'deprecated'` plus `deprecationReason: ''`
+- `@internal` — `tier: 'internal'` plus `internalToken: `
+
+Precedence (most-restrictive wins): `@internal` > `@deprecated` > `@experimental` > `@stable`.
+
+The plugin is **idempotent**: if a spec already declares `tier:` explicitly, the JSDoc is ignored. So you can mix hand-written and tag-driven tiers without conflict.
+
+## `@internal` enforcement
+
+For each file containing at least one `@internal` command, the plugin injects a per-file module-scoped Symbol:
+
+```ts
+const __actureInternalToken__ = /* @__PURE__ */ Symbol('acture.internal');
+```
+
+Each `@internal` command's `internalToken` field references this Symbol. The runtime registry rejects `dispatch` calls from outside the module (i.e., from any caller that didn't capture the Symbol at module load). See [`acture-tier-system`](../../.claude/skills/acture-tier-system/SKILL.md) §7.5.
+
+## Caveats
+
+- Regex-based, not AST. The common case is recognized; exotic JSDoc-or-call shapes are silently ignored (the user's spec keeps its hand-written `tier`, defaulting to `'stable'`).
+- 4000-char per-call lookahead window for the matching-brace scan. Real specs are O(20 lines); this is comfortably generous.
+- No `.d.ts` mirror — the JSDoc tag survives into `.d.ts` natively (IDE hover shows it), but the resolved `tier` value lives in the JS runtime output only.

+# @acture/cli
+
+The `acture` binary. Two subcommands today; the package is intentionally small.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+pnpm add -D @acture/cli
+```
+
+## `acture compare-schemas`
+
+Diff two registry snapshots and classify changes per research-5 §6.1. CI gate.
+
+```bash
+# diff two snapshot files
+acture compare-schemas base.json head.json
+
+# diff two git refs (reads .acture/snapshot.json from each)
+acture compare-schemas v1.0.0 HEAD
+
+# CI gate: exit non-zero on MAJOR
+acture compare-schemas v1.0.0 HEAD --fail-on major
+
+# description edits are MAJOR by default (research-5 §6.2);
+# allow them at branch time only (NOT a config-file setting):
+acture compare-schemas main --allow-description-edits
+
+# machine-readable output
+acture compare-schemas base.json head.json --format json
+```
+
+Classifications:
+
+| Change | Severity |
+| --- | --- |
+| Command removed | MAJOR |
+| Input field removed / type narrowed / required-tightened | MAJOR |
+| New required input field | MAJOR |
+| Enum value removed | MAJOR |
+| Description changed | MAJOR (downgradable via `--allow-description-edits`) |
+| Tier downgrade (stable → experimental) | MAJOR |
+| Alias removed / `when` changed | MAJOR |
+| New optional input field / enum value added | MINOR |
+| New command / tier upgrade / `@deprecated` added | MINOR |
+
+The deprecation banner (`[DEPRECATED — ]`) is stripped before comparing descriptions so the banner addition itself doesn't double-flag.
+
+## `acture snapshot`
+
+Load a registry config and emit a JSON snapshot. Use this to produce the baseline that `compare-schemas` reads.
+
+```bash
+# write a snapshot to stdout
+acture snapshot ./registry.mjs
+
+# write to a file (creates parent dirs if needed)
+acture snapshot ./registry.mjs --out .acture/snapshot.json
+
+# filter tiers (default: all)
+acture snapshot ./registry.mjs --tiers stable,experimental
+```
+
+The config module must default-export an acture `Registry` (or `Promise`):
+
+```js
+// registry.mjs
+import { createRegistry, defineCommand, ok } from 'acture';
+import { buildCommands } from './commands/index.js';
+
+const registry = createRegistry();
+registry.registerAll(buildCommands());
+export default registry;
+```
+
+**TypeScript configs:** Node ≥22.6 with `--experimental-strip-types` works directly. Otherwise:
+
+```bash
+npx tsx node_modules/.bin/acture snapshot ./registry.ts --out .acture/snapshot.json
+```
+
+## CI recipe
+
+```yaml
+# .github/workflows/schema-check.yml
+- run: pnpm install
+- run: pnpm build
+- run: npx acture snapshot ./registry.mjs --out .acture/snapshot.json
+- run: npx acture compare-schemas $LAST_RELEASE_TAG HEAD --fail-on major
+```
+
+`$LAST_RELEASE_TAG` is `git describe --tags --abbrev=0` or similar. The snapshot at the release tag should be committed alongside the tag so the CLI can read it via `git show $tag:.acture/snapshot.json`.
+
+## Programmatic API
+
+The same building blocks are exported from the package root:
+
+```ts
+import {
+ snapshotRegistry,
+ classifyChanges,
+ formatResult,
+ runSnapshotCmd,
+} from '@acture/cli';
+```
+
+See [`docs/research/acture_research_5 -- Schema Versioning ...md`](../../docs/research/) §6 for the canonical design.

+# @acture/devtools
+
+Embeddable React Inspector + dispatch-log instrumentation for acture registries. Dev-only — production builds skip the imports and tree-shake to nothing.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+pnpm add -D @acture/devtools
+```
+
+## Mount the Inspector
+
+```tsx
+import { Inspector, instrumentRegistry } from '@acture/devtools';
+import { registry } from './registry';
+
+// Instrument once at module load so every dispatch is captured.
+// Idempotent — re-imports do not re-wrap.
+const dispatchLog = instrumentRegistry(registry);
+
+function App() {
+ const [showInspector, setShowInspector] = useState(false);
+ return (
+ <>
+
+
+ {showInspector ? : null}
+ >
+ );
+}
+```
+
+Three tabs:
+
+- **Commands** — list of registered commands with tier badges, filterable by tier (stable / experimental / deprecated / internal) and free-text search.
+- **Dispatch log** — ring-buffered most-recent-first list of every `registry.dispatch` call, with params, result, and duration. `clear` button. Default capacity 200 entries.
+- **When evaluator** — small REPL: type a when-clause DSL string and a JSON context, see the evaluation result update live.
+
+## Theming
+
+No bundled UI kit. The component uses inline styles only. Theme via the `data-acture-devtools-*` attributes:
+
+```css
+[data-acture-devtools-inspector] { font-family: 'Your Font', monospace; }
+[data-acture-devtools-tabbar] button { background: var(--your-bg); }
+[data-acture-devtools-commands] table { /* ... */ }
+```
+
+## `instrumentRegistry(registry, options?)`
+
+Wraps `registry.dispatch` to capture every call. Returns a `DispatchLog` with:
+
+- `entries: readonly DispatchLogEntry[]` — most recent at the end.
+- `subscribe(listener): unsubscribe` — fires on each new entry.
+- `clear()` — drop all entries.
+
+Options:
+
+- `maxEntries?: number` — ring-buffer size, default 200.
+
+Idempotent: calling twice on the same registry returns the same log. The mutation is local to this package; production builds simply don't call `instrumentRegistry` and pay zero runtime cost.
+
+See [`acture-hard-donts`](../../.claude/skills/acture-hard-donts/SKILL.md) §6 for why dev-only registry mutation is allowed when core React-coupling is not.
