M11: what the server will actually read
The release-validation milestone, and the thing it had to settle first was whether any of the earlier evidence meant what it said. M8 measured a deployment enforcing a 4,096-token input window while the application budgeted 16,384. Every request returned 200. What Ollama does with the excess is drop the oldest tokens, and the oldest tokens here are the system block — the narrator's rules and the campaign canon. A hundred-turn certification against that server would have looked perfect and proved nothing, which is why this milestone could not begin with a hundred turns. So the application asks now. Ollama's window is a property of how a model was loaded rather than of the request — sending num_ctx is accepted, ignored, and worse, reloads the model at the server's own default — so the only honest move is to find out and then tell the truth about it. /api/ps reports what a resident model is being served with, /api/show what an unloaded one will load with, both on the same host inference already uses, through the same endpoint policy and the same TLS trust store. A verified window is a ceiling on the budget; an unverified one leaves the budget alone and is recorded as unverified in the turn's own provenance, so an old turn can be asked afterwards whether it was built against a checked window. There is no third behaviour, and in particular no hard-coded 4,096: a number the server did not say would be right on one machine and wrong on the next. The proof that this is doing something is a campaign whose canon sits at the front of the prompt, 120 turns of history, and a 4,096-token window. The canon is still there afterwards and the oldest history is gone. The same campaign built the old way produces a prompt more than twice the window — the defect, reproduced, so the fix is measured against it rather than asserted. Two defects the validation found on its own, and they are the same defect twice: something was true and nobody was told. A manual state correction of four changes with one bad reference applied three, returned 201, and said nothing — while recording the refusal on the audit row nobody reads. It came to light because the identity diagnostic's own fixture was refused that way and the whole run proceeded on a campaign with no scene, which would have read as a model failure. And the narration-length setting moved no number: brief, medium and long each became one English sentence, while the numeric hint the model actually reads was derived from the global reply cap and said the same thing for all three. Both now say what they did. The other two post-M8 findings are closed as well. The tab said AI D&D, which no document had ever claimed it did not; it says Interactive Story now, with the open campaign first, and the name is the owner's decision rather than a find-and-replace to something narrower than the engine. After an Undo the reader could not tell where they had landed; the control row now ends with "Moment 11 · later story ahead", from the server's own answer, in the word the transcript already uses, with none of head, branch or depth anywhere near it. The identity diagnostic exists and the root cause does not. That campaign was destroyed, so no cause can be established — what M11 owes the finding is something that can classify the next occurrence, and a diagnostic that makes only the judgements a program can honestly make: duplicate keys, shared names, protagonist drift, state and context disagreeing. Whether prose misattributed a line is left to a person reading it beside its prompt, because a regex cannot read dialogue and one that pretended to would produce exactly the confident wrong answer this finding is about. Its detectors are proved to fire against a planted second Alice. Two entities may still share a display name. That was checked first, as the finding asked, and left permitted: a mother and a daughter, or a stranger giving a false name, are ordinary fiction, and refusing them to guard against a model mistake would refuse the wrong thing. What was missing was that it happened silently. It is reported now. Evidence, not inference: a hundred accepted turns against a real narrator with genuine process restarts; a real browser against the built SPA; a container with no network at all; a campaign moved into a data directory that never existed. Each was discarded and re-run whenever the product changed under it, and the runs that were thrown away are listed in the report with the reason, along with ten defects in the harnesses themselves — because a harness that has only ever agreed with itself is not evidence, and two of M8's five harness defects were masking real ones. No dependency was added, removed or upgraded. No acceptance test was retired, relaxed or reclassified. M11 is implemented and verified; it is not accepted, and there is no release tag.

M5: genre-neutral authoritative narrative state, with review corrections
Replaces AI-DnD's RPG relative-delta world state with the genre-neutral typed
narrative state of ADR 010: explicit, absolute, allowlisted events proposed by
the model, validated by the application, applied to one authoritative document,
and snapshotted per position so restore stays a row read.
This commit includes the corrective pass that followed the independent review
in planning/reports/M5-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md. The invariant it exists to
hold is:
visible active transcript position == stored head == authoritative state
Narrator editing (D10, STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS §§14-15)
A narrator edit no longer rewrites a row. It returns to the state before the
turn, takes the reader's exact text as the accepted narration, re-derives the
state that text implies, and becomes a new active continuation — while the
original narration keeps its words, its live flag and its whole future as
retained history. At the tip the correction is another take; with story below
it, it forks. No new history machinery: this is the existing fork/take/head
path with the reader's text in place of a generated reply. The §14A refusal
is therefore gone for narrator turns, and remains only for player input.
Pre-M5 positions
Migration 88 backfills the empty narrative document onto every action written
before M5, and a missing snapshot now restores the empty document instead of
leaving the previous position's state standing. Restoring to an old Save
Point no longer leaves a later position's entities and facts on screen.
Narrator context
Replayed history carries prose only; the machine-readable block is no longer
reconstructed into past turns, where it contradicted the authoritative state
in the same prompt. A fact withdrawn by a manual correction is now named as
no longer true, with the reader's reason, rather than silently dropped.
Also
- state_changes joins the action-list bulk read, removing one query per row.
- Extraction takes only the application's own protocol payload: an ordinary
```json or ```python block in a story survives, and a mangled proposal
still does not reach the reader.
Planning: ADR 013 records the authoritative document shape; §§14-15/14A, D10,
C04 and BUILD-MILESTONES are updated to describe what exists. Debt is recorded
against M8 (scenario editor UX) and M9 (export of the audit trail).
