Gate unblock — prerequisite hygiene PR #89 (foreign line-ref drift)

Outcome. This tick opened one focused PR — #89 — that fixes a pre-existing, foreign gate failure blocking the whole repo's check:all-gates. With it merged, the forex-orthogonal-feature bootstrap PR opens next tick with green gates. No campaign code changed this tick; the bootstrap branch feat/odb-ext/bootstrap is untouched and ready.

The blocker found this tick

On the laptop run, mise run check:all-gates was RED — but not on the campaign. The single substantive failure was check:rust-bash-line-ref-bounds with failures=7, all in tools/fxview-stall-detector-watchdog/src/{main.rs,sidecar_state.rs,verdict.rs}: Rust comments citing line numbers in the Bash predecessor scripts/ops/mt5-and-sidecar-tick-flow-stall-detector-watchdog.sh that drifted when that script grew (~231 → 280 lines, 2026-06-02 self-heal block) so seven refs now point at blank lines (Audit Class C).

This drift is pre-existing on origin/main and foreign to the campaign — owned by the separate rust-enhancement /loop. The override promised green macOS gates; main has since drifted.

Decision (operator)

The loop surfaced the scope-boundary choice (a campaign-strict no-touch-other-loops rule vs. an unblockable gate). The operator chose "Separate hygiene PR first" — open a tiny standalone PR for the line-refs this tick; the bootstrap PR opens next tick once #89 lands. An independent Defender sub-agent reached the same recommendation (don't scope-creep the bootstrap PR; don't STOP — the override green-lights progress).

The fix (comment-only, 7 refs)

Rust ref	cited	corrected	content at corrected line
main.rs:37	99-103	117-119	weekend-gap `dow`/`hour` predicate
main.rs:39	155	172	sidecar `!= "active"` abstain
main.rs:86	61	66	`SIDECAR_SERVICE_NAME` default
main.rs:107	64	69	`ALERT_KEY` default
main.rs:198	153-161	170-178	sidecar liveness gate block
sidecar_state.rs:19	155	172	`!= "active"`
verdict.rs:66	187	204	`nonzero -gt 0 → healthy`

Scope discipline: exactly the 7 blank-line refs the gate flags. A fuller Class-C re-audit of remaining stale-but-non-blank refs stays with the owning rust-enhancement /loop (iter#129/#154/#155 cohort).

Verification

failures=0 mise run check:rust-bash-line-ref-bounds (refs_checked=199).
GREEN mise run rust:check + every marker / drift / PITSLARP gate on macOS (worktree run).
context gate check:git-hook-installed verifies a literal .git/hooks path — it PASSes in the main checkout but is structurally inapplicable from a linked worktree, and the laptop is hook-less by design (override §8: the loop's manual check:all-gates run is the authority). Unaffected by this comment-only change.

Bootstrap Challenge-and-Held (recorded for next tick's PR #1)

The §4.6 Attacker/Defender adversarial review of the bootstrap deliverables was run this tick. Conceded gaps will be applied to feat/odb-ext/bootstrap before its PR opens next tick:

#	Finding	Verdict	Action (next tick, on bootstrap branch)
F1	Rust↔JSON drift gate is order-blind — only checks the name set + count, not per-feature `card`/`substrate_available`/`order` alignment. A name↔card swap would pass silently.	CONCEDE (major)	Parse the sha-locked JSON (`serde_json` dev-dep) and assert positional equality `name/card/substrate_available/order` per index.
F2	`f64_close` returns `false` for `+∞ vs +∞` (and a `+∞ vs −∞ → true` false-positive) — the campaign-wide parity comparator is non-reflexive on infinities; kernels (e.g. spectral_log_slope) can emit ±∞ in the oracle path → spurious parity fails.	CONCEDE (major)	Add an explicit `if a.is_infinite() \|\| b.is_infinite() { return a == b }` guard before the subtraction + an ∞-inclusive proptest/self-test.
F3	Anchors unverified on Linux/bigblack pending the pre-existing signal_ring test-build breakage; green-on-macOS ≠ verified-on-production.	CONCEDE (disclosure)	Prominent release-gate caveat in the bootstrap PR body (not a footnote). No code change — the signal_ring fix is out of campaign scope.
F4	(a) regen-script comment overclaims the fixture "exercises" the BBC-002 metals-close gap path (every boundary is a ~48-49h weekend gap; the ~60-min close is correctly below the 8h threshold). (b) pietra blocked-reason cites `perbar_fx_quote_max_gap_us` not present in the 16-col fixture.	CONCEDE (minor)	(a) reword the non-locked regen-script comment. (b) defer the JSON wording to the next intentional re-lock (the cohort JSON is SHA256-locked — no churn for a prose nit).

Next step

Merge #89 → next tick rebases feat/odb-ext/bootstrap on fresh main, applies the F1/F2/F4(a) fixes, re-runs gates (now green), runs the formal Challenge-and-Held, and opens bootstrap PR #1 with the F3 release-gate caveat + the 11-of-14 scope note. Then per-feature PRs proceed in cohort order, skipping the 3 substrate-blocked features.

Presentation only — never the SSoT.
