The two dated log sections had never been split, so every one of their 29 entries sat inline and the startup index had grown to 372 lines — which is the cost the two-tier scheme exists to remove, paid on every session that reads the file. 27 entries were over threshold. All 29 now have a detail file under persistent-memory.d/ and a one-line index entry that routes rather than restates. Index: 372 -> 93 lines. No archival. The soft cap fired, but every entry in this repo is dated 2026-09-21 or later, so the under-14-days guard held all of them back — and the split alone took the index well under the target without moving anything out of the active file. The in-flight section is rewritten for the post-release state: nothing is in flight, no gate is outstanding, and the next unit is explicitly recorded as the operator's undecided call rather than as a plan. The session's recommendation (U4, on three grounds) is written down so it does not have to be re-derived, alongside the two alternatives and why they are alternatives. Two dated predictions are carried forward with their dates and their instruments: the U5 adoption re-measure on 2026-09-29, which already reads 3 of 24 announced and 2 with a why from peers told nothing, and the .forever re-count a fortnight AFTER U4 lands, which is U4's own success criterion and is destroyed by running it early.

# A boolean escape hatch as the lifetime mechanism

**A boolean escape hatch as the lifetime mechanism.**
|
|
`.forever` was added because a 24h TTL genuinely did not fit some booths —
|
|
and then 56% of live booths ended up on it, which means it is not "ephemeral
|
|
with an exception", it is two lifetimes wearing one lifetime's clothes, with
|
|
the operator doing the sorting by hand. Replaced at U4 by lifetime derived
|
|
from state (an open mark pins; viewing is activity; `keep` survives as an
|
|
explicit reasoned pin rather than the only way to say "not yet").
