Review-ready loop dogfood transcript

Status: post-0.8 soak receipt for the paused 0.9 candidate. Release posture: this transcript does not approve tagging, publishing, or GitHub release execution. Date: 2026-05-17.

This records one real local-history run against the shiplog repository. It is proof, not a pitch: the loop improved the packet, kept caveats visible, and did not turn the packet into generated review prose.

Setup

The run used a temporary workspace under target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/ with:

  • sources.git.enabled = true, pointed at H:/Code/Rust/shiplog;
  • sources.manual.enabled = true, pointed at the temporary manual journal;
  • no provider tokens;
  • no redaction key.

The transcript used a local debug build and an explicit output directory:

shiplog init --source git --source manual --force
shiplog intake --config target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/workspace/shiplog.toml --out target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out --last-6-months --explain --no-open

Transcript

1. First Intake

Run: merge_1779008650359479900.

Observed:

  • Local git: success, 369 events.
  • Manual: success, 0 events.
  • Intake status: Needs curation.
  • Packet readiness: Ready with caveats.
  • Next started with shiplog repair plan --out ... --latest.
  • Direct write-producing evidence-debt commands remained contextual, not the top-level first action.

2. Repair Plan

shiplog repair plan --out target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out --latest

Observed:

  • Repair queue had five items.
  • The first repair was safe and copyable: repair_001_manual_manual_evidence_missing_fixup_manual_cont.
  • Advisory items stayed explicit as no safe copyable command.
  • Manager/public sharing stayed blocked on a redaction key.

3. Journal Repair

shiplog journal add --from-repair repair_001_manual_manual_evidence_missing_fixup_manual_cont --out target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out --latest

Observed:

  • Wrote one manual event to the temporary manual journal.
  • The command named the repair ID, report path, manual journal path, and clear condition.
  • The next printed command was a rerun intake with the same config and output directory.

4. Rerun

shiplog intake --config target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/workspace/shiplog.toml --out target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out --last-6-months --explain --no-open

Run: merge_1779008667101652700.

Observed:

  • Local git: success, 369 events.
  • Manual: success, 1 event.
  • Intake status: Needs curation.
  • Packet readiness: Ready with caveats.
  • Next started with shiplog repair diff --out ... --latest, then repair plan, then read-only share explain manager.

5. Repair Diff

shiplog repair diff --out target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out --latest

Observed:

  • Cleared: 1.
  • The cleared item was the manual evidence repair key: manual:manual_evidence_missing:fixup_manual_context_shiplog.
  • Still open: broad workstream, too many selected receipts, and share redaction required.
  • The manual-context evidence debt changed from missing outcome note to a reminder that manual evidence is user-provided and should stay current.

6. Runs Diff

shiplog runs diff --out target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out --latest

Observed:

  • Improved evidence events: 369 -> 370.
  • Improved manual evidence count: 0 -> 1.
  • Reported the manual repair key as cleared.
  • Still weak:
    • broad workstream repair still open;
    • too many selected receipts still open;
    • share redaction still open;
    • packet readiness still Ready with caveats;
    • packet evidence still partial.

7. Packet

shiplog open packet --out target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out --latest --print-path

Observed:

  • Packet path: target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out/merge_1779008667101652700/packet.md.
  • The packet opened with # Packet Readiness.
  • # Claim Candidates followed before coverage details.
  • Report JSON had:
    • packet_readiness = ready_with_caveats;
    • evidence_strength = partial;
    • one claim candidate;
    • three missing-context prompts.

8. Share Explain

shiplog share explain manager --out target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out --latest

Observed:

  • Status: blocked.
  • Redaction key: missing.
  • Included packet readiness, claim candidates, 370 events, and source-backed counts.
  • Removed raw redaction key values, opaque provider identifiers, private source identifiers where policy applies, and full internal-only packet density.
  • Needs review included packet readiness and all three evidence-debt caveats.
  • Profile packet and share manifest were not written.
  • Follow-up commands were labeled Render when ready.

9. Share Verify

shiplog share verify manager --out target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/out --latest

Observed:

  • Failed closed with: manager share requires --redact-key or SHIPLOG_REDACT_KEY.
  • No manager profile packet was written.

What Looked Right

  • The first top-level handoff was read-first: repair plan before writes.
  • Journal repair used the report-derived repair ID instead of asking the user to guess a YAML edit.
  • Rerun handoff moved to repair diff before returning to planning.
  • Repair diff cleared only the manual repair whose matching evidence appeared.
  • Runs diff showed improvement without claiming the packet was fully strong.
  • Packet readiness and claim candidates were visible at the top of the packet.
  • share explain manager was read-only and kept readiness/evidence debt visible.
  • share verify manager failed closed without a redaction key.

Remaining Caveats

  • The packet still needs curation: one broad workstream and too many selected receipts remain open.
  • Manual evidence is present, but it is user-provided and needs real outcome context before sharing.
  • Manager rendering remains blocked until a redaction key is supplied.
  • No provider-token paths were exercised in this transcript.

Intentionally Not Fixed

  • Did not split the broad shiplog workstream.
  • Did not trim selected receipts.
  • Did not render manager/public packets.
  • Did not add provider tokens or source adapters.
  • Did not generate performance-review prose.

Release Decision Signal

This transcript supports keeping the 0.9 candidate in soak with stronger release confidence. It shows the core loop is calm and receipt-derived for local git plus manual repair, but it does not by itself approve release execution. A release decision still needs current matrix review, green main CI, current hold receipts, and explicit owner approval.

Cleanup

The temporary dogfood workspace under target/codex-review-ready-transcript-397/ was removed after this transcript was recorded.
