`[2026-07-07]` **Affect-egress reference delivered by worldtree-dev + a we-framing render DRIFT-WATCH banked.** worldtree-dev shipped `docs/affect-egress-consumer-reference.md` (`74d2408`, their origin/main) — the authoritative DELIVERED-on-wire vs HIDDEN (system-prompt-only) map for our affect surface. Confirms the v0.20.x console consumes it correctly: DELIVERED via affect.emit = pad + relations[RelationEdge] + dominant_emotion (**type-only, b23**; the #204 `affect_update` SSE is SUPPRESSED for Tier-3, so its richer `emotions_active` is Tier-1-only — we don't get it, and correctly poll our own affect store post-turn instead). HIDDEN render OUTPUTS are deterministically reconstructable from the canon; we reconstruct only the two FULLY-reconstructable (mood descriptor via `canonMood`, relationship directive via `canonDirective`) and SKIP the PARTIAL mood-directive (dominant_emotion is type-only/no-intensity → can't tell if the OCC directive fires at salience≥0.2 vs the PAD-band fallback) — honest per INV-001. Vendoring the ref doc as a `tolerate_drift` pin is SURFACED to Vuong (worldtree-dev will co-sign + honor a ping-on-change handshake, same as the d2-canon). **WE-FRAMING DRIFT-WATCH → STOOD DOWN (worldtree-dev 2026-07-07, `01KWXMQPHN…`).** The b24 3-gate we-framing conditional (drop "; avoid premature we-framing" under unsafe_capable+deep-warmth+expressive) was **REVERTED** — Vuong reframed it. So **`canonDirective` STAYS UNCONDITIONAL** (always appends the clause), which is CORRECT: it matches the currently-deployed renderer (b23) AND my pinned `affect-egress-consumer-reference.md` §2d (the doc reverted too — nothing changed on the wire or in my pin; NO re-vendor needed). The HOLD was right → ZERO rework. **NEW forward-watch (replaces this one):** the we-framing gate was a SYMPTOM — the render bakes enterprise safety-guards into the directive strings, so even `full`-tier characters get DEFANGED emotions (a hostile villain told to "keep a firm emotional boundary"). Fix = a **use-case-segregated persona render** (assistant / companion / RP-gaming), now a fresh **brokkr deep-research epic**. When it lands + is implemented, the render behavior for character/RP agents (→ our `canonDirective` + `canonEmotionDirective` reconstruction + the vendored d2 canons) will change MATERIALLY — worldtree-dev re-engages ratatoskr-dev then with the new reconstruction spec + a coordinated re-vendor. Until then: NO action, reconstruction stays as-is. [my unsafe_capable/mood_tier heuristic — character→full, agent→safe — was confirmed correct + is banked for whenever tier-gating returns]
