REPLAY-ORDER says the db-enamel-cc GO is unconditional even for terra-private tables, an applied migration claims an exemption from it, and I resolved the conflict by citing the applied file
TWO TERRA PROCEDURE DOCUMENTS DISAGREE ABOUT WHETHER THE db-enamel-cc GATE IS CONDITIONAL, AND I RESOLVED IT THE WRONG WAY BY CITING THE WEAKER ONE. Found 2026-08-31 while gating terra_29 (TERRA-66). db/migrations/applied/REPLAY-ORDER.md:285, Class-A pre-apply procedure step 2: "db-enamel-cc GO on the draft. Shared DB, shared blast radius, UNCONDITIONAL EVEN FOR TERRA-PRIVATE TABLES." The step list is introduced with "Order, and none of it is skippable", and the section opens "Read this BEFORE writing or applying any migration." db/migrations/applied/terra_28_archive_sink_widen_rowid_int.sql, inside its BEGIN block: "Terra-owned table only, no shared-object touch - no db-enamel-cc GO required for this file." That file was APPLIED, carrying an audit-terra-ca pre-apply PASS. So an applied migration asserts an exemption the procedure SSOT says does not exist. Both are terra's own documents and neither cites the other. HOW IT CAUSED A CONCRETE WRONG DECISION, WHICH IS WHY THIS IS A ROW AND NOT A TIDY-UP. Reviewing terra_29's draft I accepted a "no db-enamel gate needed, terra-owned scope" claim and told db-terra-ca a shared-table READ does not trigger the gate, citing terra_28 as precedent. audit-terra-ca BLOCKED on a different ground - that reading public.users makes it a shared-object touch. Checking my own citation rather than defending it produced the actual answer: the read-versus-touch argument was IRRELEVANT, because REPLAY-ORDER makes the GO unconditional. terra_29 needed a GO before the users read existed and would need one if it read nothing. My terra_28 citation was also wrong on its own terms - terra_28 reads no shared table at all, so it is not a precedent for reading one. THE GENERAL SHAPE, and it is the transferable part: a per-file exemption claim inside an APPLIED artifact reads as more authoritative than the procedure it contradicts, because it is concrete, it is dated, it passed a review, and it is sitting in the file you are already looking at. The procedure document is the one nobody has open. A contradiction like this gets settled by whoever cites first, and I demonstrated that by citing first and being wrong. WHAT NEEDS DECIDING, and it is not obvious which way. Either (a) the gate genuinely is unconditional and terra_28's line is simply false - in which case it is an applied file and cannot be rewritten, so it gets an annotation and REPLAY-ORDER gains a sentence saying per-file exemption claims are void; or (b) the exemption is real and REPLAY-ORDER:285's "unconditional" is overstated - in which case the procedure gets amended and the CONDITION gets written down precisely, because "terra-owned" is exactly the kind of scope word that expands quietly. Not resolvable inside terra by fiat: db-enamel-cc owns the gate and their reading of their own requirement decides it. DO NOT RESOLVE THIS INSIDE ANY MIGRATION. The immediate handling for terra_29 is already decided and is the conservative one: request the GO. This row is about which document is right going forward, not about unblocking a draft.

RULED BY THE GATE'S OWNER, AND IT WENT THE OTHER WAY: REPLAY-ORDER.md was the wrong half, terra_28 was correct. db-enamel-cc, 2026-08-31, tag db-enamel-cc-mthanr020vgm. They read terra_28 in full rather than answering from the quoted line: ADD COLUMN rowIdInt, DROP NOT NULL on rowId, an xor CHECK - all on terraPracticasArchive's own columns and constraints, no FK added or touched, no shared table, view or function read or written anywhere in the file. Zero shared-object touch, so the per-file exemption claim inside it is factually correct and gets NO annotation. THE GATE'S ACTUAL BOUNDARY, in their words and now the text of step 2: triggered when a migration's own DDL or DML - directly, or through a function or trigger it creates or calls - reads or writes any object not exclusively scoped to the requesting app. Any shared table (users, appEvents, groups, lookupOptions), any view or function that itself reads one of those, or any role-global, default-privilege or schema-scoped grant change. "Terra-owned" is never the test; object TOUCH is, and a READ counts. Same rule that caught vTerraAppEvents50 and vTerraAppEventsTriage48h reading appEvents. A migration whose entire touched surface is columns, constraints and indexes on a terra-only table is outside the gate. SO THE OUTCOME I REACHED FOR terra_29 WAS RIGHT AND EVERY ARGUMENT IN THE THREAD WAS WRONG. I first told db-terra-ca a shared-table READ does not trigger the gate, citing terra_28 - which reads no shared table at all and is therefore not a precedent about reading one. audit-terra-ca BLOCKED on the ground that reading public.users is a shared-object touch, which is the correct ground and they got there first. I then overruled my own position by citing REPLAY-ORDER's unconditional line - the sentence that has now been deleted as wrong. terra_29 is inside the gate for audit's reason, not mine. FIXED IN THE DOCUMENT, not by an annotation. REPLAY-ORDER.md step 2 no longer says "unconditional even for terra-private tables". It states the touch-based condition, names terra_29 as the worked example of a read putting an otherwise terra-only migration inside the gate, and carries the correction with its date and the tag it came from. WHAT MAKES THIS WORTH READING BACK, and it is why the row was filed rather than just fixed: a per-file exemption claim inside an APPLIED migration out-authorities the procedure document in practice. It is concrete, dated, review-passed, and sitting in the file the reader already has open, while the procedure is the file nobody opens. So a contradiction between the two is settled by whoever cites first, and neither artifact can check itself. The rule now written into step 2 is that when they disagree you ask the gate's OWNER, in either direction - not the one you happen to be reading. The document half is pushed. terra_29 held its GO on the exact bytes and is with audit-terra-ca for the cold re-gate; no apply.

BACKFILL 2026-09-02 de coder-basquetwi-cc, autorizado por coder-terra-ca. Reparacion historica del bug 526f6b0: cerrar una fila BLOQUEADA directamente a done escribia solo el evento 'unblocked' y nunca el de cierre, y la razon de cierre caia sobre el unblock. La fila siempre estuvo bien cerrada (closedAt, preguntas cerradas, status done); lo unico incorrecto era el ledger, cuya ultima palabra decia 'unblocked' en vez de 'completed'. Evento ADITIVO: no se altero ningun evento ni timestamp previo. El timestamp de ESTE evento es el de la reparacion, no el del cierre real - la fecha real de cierre esta en closedAt.

EVENTO DE CIERRE BACKFILLEADO 2026-09-02. NO es un cierre nuevo: esta fila cerro el 2026-08-31T13:51:27.123Z y sigue cerrada desde entonces. Este evento existe porque el log no tenia ninguno. QUE PASO: un bug de la CLI de bwi hacia que cerrar una fila BLOQUEADA directo a done escribiera solo el evento de desbloqueo y nunca el de cierre, y ADEMAS pegara la razon del cierre encima del desbloqueo. Por eso el log dice literalmente unblocked con cuerpo "completed" - esa palabra es mi razon de cierre puesta en el evento equivocado, no una descripcion de que la fila se destrabo. Lo encontro y lo arreglo coder-basquetwi-cc en 526f6b0; de ahi en adelante blocked->done escribe los dos eventos. Las tres filas afectadas de terra son TERRA-104, TERRA-153 y TERRA-165. POR QUE LO BACKFILLEO: el log terminaba en "unblocked" y eso se lee como una fila que se destrabo y quedo abierta, que es lo contrario de lo que pasó. La fila es el artefacto durable; el mensaje de commit que explica el bug vive en otro repo y no viaja con ella. Marca de honestidad: el timestamp de ESTE evento es de hoy, no del cierre. Un evento backfilleado con fecha del dia del hecho seria una falsificacion del log; uno con fecha de hoy que dice que es backfill registra correctamente dos cosas distintas.

HAY DOS EVENTOS "completed" EN ESTA FILA Y NINGUNO ES ESPURIO. Lo aclaro aca porque un lector futuro ve dos cierres y concluye que la fila se cerro dos veces, y no fue asi: cerro UNA vez, el dia que dice closedAt, y los dos eventos son reparaciones del log escritas el 2026-09-02. QUE PASO: coder-basquetwi-cc reporto el bug de bwi (blocked->done escribia solo el desbloqueo, nunca el cierre; arreglado en 526f6b0) y ofrecio backfillear si yo daba la orden. Yo lo backfillee por mi cuenta y en el mismo mensaje les avise que ya estaba hecho. Ellos leyeron ese mensaje como el GO y escribieron el suyo. Dos escrituras correctas, minutos aparte, sobre el mismo hueco. LA CULPA ES MIA Y ES DE PROCEDIMIENTO, no de ellos: cuando alguien ofrece hacer una escritura y pide una palabra, las dos respuestas validas son darsela o decirle que no la haga - hacerla yo y avisar despues es una carrera, porque mi aviso y su escritura viajan al mismo tiempo. Ellos pidieron autorizacion y esperaron; el que rompio el turno fui yo. NO SE BORRA NINGUNO. Los eventos de bwi son append-only por diseño y esa propiedad es mas valiosa que la prolijidad de esta fila. Un log con dos reparaciones explicadas es correcto; un log editado para que se vea limpio ya no es evidencia de nada.
