***

### Task T014 - Add shared lock and cleanup tests

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:04 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:08 **Duration**: 4 minutes

**Notes**:

* Kept existing shared lock blocking, stale recovery, and distinct lock path coverage.
* Added failure cleanup coverage proving write replacement errors release the generated-data lock and remove temporary files.
* Focused writer tests passed with 23 tests.

**Files Changed**:

* `scripts/lib/__tests__/aggregate-live-data-write.test.ts` - Added replacement-failure lock/temp cleanup coverage.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T014 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged lock test additions.

***

### Task T013 - Add branch, fallback, missing branch, and privacy tests

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:04 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:08 **Duration**: 4 minutes

**Notes**:

* Kept existing branch preservation coverage for host/local and Trend Finder scoped writes.
* Added empty live-data fallback coverage.
* Added missing `extensions.items.trend-finder` rejection coverage.
* Strengthened private-field rejection coverage for Linux paths, bearer tokens, auth payloads, and source dumps.
* Focused writer tests passed with 23 tests.

**Files Changed**:

* `scripts/lib/__tests__/aggregate-live-data-write.test.ts` - Added and tightened writer coverage.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T013 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged test additions.

***

### Task T012 - Update scheduled aggregate runbook guidance

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:04 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:08 **Duration**: 4 minutes

**Notes**:

* Updated the runbook to describe full aggregate as the compatibility full writer through the generated-data gate.
* Clarified that all producer writes use `scheduler/locks/generated-live-data.lock`.
* Preserved the boundary that scoped `agent-aggregate` and `trend-finder` jobs are not runnable yet.

**Files Changed**:

* `docs/runbooks/scheduled-aggregate.md` - Updated ownership, lock, and direct aggregate guidance.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T012 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged runbook update.

***

### Task T011 - Route aggregate direct writes through producer gate

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:04 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:08 **Duration**: 4 minutes

**Notes**:

* Replaced the direct `Bun.write` output call with `writeGeneratedLiveDataForScope({ scope: "full" })`.
* Preserved the `bun run aggregate` command and returned summary behavior while using the shared validation and write boundary.
* Confirmed `scripts/aggregate.ts` no longer imports `prepareLiveDataForWrite` directly.

**Files Changed**:

* `scripts/aggregate.ts` - Routed full aggregate output through the generated live-data writer.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T011 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged aggregate routing.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: full compatibility writes use the same producer gate as future scoped writers.
* Duplicate action prevention: direct aggregate writes now participate in the generated-data lock boundary.

***

### Task T010 - Refine invalid-base fallback and safe errors

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:04 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:07 **Duration**: 3 minutes

**Notes**:

* Refined merge-base loading to classify missing, empty, invalid JSON, invalid shape, and unreadable bases.
* Kept fallback to `src/data/live-data.example.json` when current live data is invalid or empty.
* Added safe error output when neither current nor example live data is valid; the message reports statuses and omits private paths.
* Focused writer tests passed.

**Files Changed**:

* `scripts/lib/aggregate-live-data-write.ts` - Added explicit merge-base read statuses and safe error reporting.
* `scripts/lib/__tests__/aggregate-live-data-write.test.ts` - Added empty-base fallback and safe no-base error coverage.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T010 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged fallback behavior.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Failure path completeness: scoped writes degrade from bad current data to the example base and report safe statuses if no base is usable.
* Error information boundaries: base-loading failures do not include local filesystem paths.

***

### Task T009 - Refine Trend Finder scoped merge behavior

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:06 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:07 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Confirmed Trend Finder scoped writes preserve host/local root branches and non-Trend Finder extension items.
* Added focused coverage that rejects a Trend Finder scoped write when `extensions.items.trend-finder` is missing.
* Strengthened privacy rejection for raw auth/source/transcript container fields before merge.

**Files Changed**:

* `scripts/lib/aggregate-live-data-write.ts` - Refined private container field rejection.
* `scripts/lib/__tests__/aggregate-live-data-write.test.ts` - Added missing Trend Finder item and stronger privacy rejection coverage.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T009 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged Trend Finder merge verification.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Trust boundary enforcement: scoped Trend Finder input is schema-validated before merge and requires the owned extension item.
* Error information boundaries: privacy validation reports field paths and categories without leaking secret values.

***

### Task T008 - Refine host/local scoped merge behavior

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:06 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:07 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Confirmed host/local scoped writes preserve the existing `extensions` branch from the merge base.
* Refined the write boundary to replace files through a temp-file-and-rename transaction under the generated-data lock.
* Added cleanup coverage for replacement failure; focused writer tests passed.

**Files Changed**:

* `scripts/lib/aggregate-live-data-write.ts` - Added atomic file replacement helper used by scoped writes.
* `scripts/lib/__tests__/aggregate-live-data-write.test.ts` - Covered failure cleanup through the scoped writer.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T008 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged host/local merge verification.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Concurrency safety: scoped writes are serialized by the generated-data lock.
* Failure path completeness: failed replacement leaves the previous artifact in place and cleans temporary output.

***

### Task T007 - Verify full-write validation before write

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:06 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:07 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Confirmed full writes call `prepareLiveDataForWrite`, which compares producer output with read-side `validateLiveData` output before any file replacement.
* Existing focused tests verify complete output is accepted and read-side repairs are rejected before write.
* Focused writer tests passed after changes.

**Files Changed**:

* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T007 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged full-write validation verification.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: producer output must already match the browser-side `LiveData` contract; read-side repair is treated as a write failure.

***

### Task T006 - Verify scheduler lock stale-recovery reuse

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:05 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:06 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Verified generated-data locking reuses `acquireSchedulerLock` and `releaseSchedulerLock` without changing owner checks.
* Confirmed existing scheduler lock tests still cover acquire, block, stale recovery, owner mismatch preservation, and owner-safe release.
* Focused scheduler lock tests passed: `bun run test -- scripts/lib/__tests__/scheduler-locks.test.ts`.

**Files Changed**:

* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T006 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged lock semantics verification.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Concurrency safety: stale recovery and owner-mismatch behavior remain centralized in the scheduler lock implementation.

***

### Task T005 - Verify generated-data lock wrapper and cleanup

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:03 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:06 **Duration**: 3 minutes

**Notes**:

* Verified `generated-live-data` resolves to a private scheduler lock path separate from per-job run locks.
* Kept lock acquisition and release on the existing scheduler lock implementation.
* Added atomic temp-file replacement and cleanup so a failed replacement releases the generated-data lock and removes the temporary file.
* Focused writer tests passed: `bun run test -- scripts/lib/__tests__/aggregate-live-data-write.test.ts`.

**Files Changed**:

* `scripts/lib/aggregate-live-data-write.ts` - Added temp-file replacement and cleanup while preserving lock release in `finally`.
* `scripts/lib/__tests__/aggregate-live-data-write.test.ts` - Added lock/temp cleanup coverage.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T005 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged lock cleanup verification.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Resource cleanup: failed writes now remove temporary files and release acquired generated-data locks.
* Duplicate action prevention: all generated-data writes are serialized through the shared lock.

***

### Task T004 - Finalize Trend Finder extension ownership constants

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:03 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:03 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Added a `LiveDataExtensionBranch` template-literal type for the Trend Finder extension path.
* Kept the extension ownership list scoped to `extensions.items.trend-finder`.

**Files Changed**:

* `scripts/lib/aggregate-live-data-write.ts` - Tightened extension ownership typing.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T004 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged extension ownership typing.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: extension branch ownership is typed to the exact Trend Finder item path used by scoped writes.

***

### Task T003 - Finalize host/local branch ownership constants

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:02 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:03 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Added a `LiveDataHostLocalBranch` type that excludes `extensions` from the allowed host/local root branch list.
* Kept the representative root branch list aligned with current aggregate output and the optional `settings` branch.

**Files Changed**:

* `scripts/lib/aggregate-live-data-write.ts` - Tightened host/local ownership typing.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T003 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged ownership typing.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: host/local ownership now cannot type-check if `extensions` is accidentally added to the root-owned branch list.

***

### Task T002 - Inventory aggregate-emitted live-data branches

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:01 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:02 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Reviewed `scripts/aggregate.ts` output root branches: `isExample`, `generatedAt`, `summary`, `subscriptions`, `usage`, `modelUsage`, `daily`, `activity`, `recentProjects`, `skills`, `integrations`, `automations`, `knowledgeStores`, `modelSplit`, `memory`, `hermes`, `openclaw`, `localAgents`, `detection`, `dream`, and `extensions`.
* Compared the emitted roots with `LIVE_DATA_HOST_LOCAL_BRANCHES`; the planned host/local map covers all aggregate roots except `extensions` and includes optional `settings`.
* Confirmed the extension ownership map is limited to `extensions.items.trend-finder`.

**Files Changed**:

* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T002 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged branch inventory.

***

### Task T001 - Verify Session 01 prerequisites, writer files, and focused commands

**Started**: 2026-05-31 18:01 **Completed**: 2026-05-31 18:01 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Confirmed Session 01 validation passed with `bun run test`, `bun run typecheck:scripts`, and `git diff --check`.
* Confirmed Bun is available through the prerequisite checker.
* Confirmed the current session targets existing writer, scheduler lock, aggregate, test, and runbook files.

**Files Changed**:

* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/tasks.md` - Marked T001 complete.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase15-session02-live-data-merge-boundary/implementation-notes.md` - Logged setup verification.
