R19 preferences

Authored design — 2026-09-15. Section 3. This cascade elaborates the existing checklist item. It is not a dispatch, implementation receipt or completion verdict. Work outside WM-01–14 still requires Joe’s explicit greenlight; having a cascade is necessary but not permission.

Situation and design problem

A terminal seed does not show which preferences govern a real choice. R19 connects authored, composed and revisable C to compatible predictions.

Governing checklist snapshot

R19 preferences. PARTIAL: WM-06's compatible predictive bridge plus WM-13 and declared authorship, composition and revision provenance. Built evidence: Terminal seed and channel C as WM-06

This is the checklist’s dated evidence account, not a new deployment census. Existing source/test evidence keeps its bounded credit. The acceptance obligation above governs this design.

Pattern applications

R19-1 — Identify whose outcome matters

Pattern: wm-purpose-and-account/recipient-benefit-shapes-the-model

Record participant concerns and the authorized preference authorship at this grain. Produce the outcome rationale; artifact counts or preferences for particular evidence content cannot replace it.

R19-2 — Resolve the applicable family and bridge

Pattern: wm-pattern-design/preference-family-needs-composition

Use WM-06/13 to select the actual grain/time member and justified predictive bridge. Retain domain/support and unresolved members; do not reuse terminal C everywhere by default.

R19-3 — Compose with exact provenance

Pattern: wm-pattern-design/preference-family-needs-composition

Retain layer identities, order, operators and revision authority from the real fold. An empty-layer theorem must not certify a nonempty runtime declaration. Produce the effective C with full provenance.

R19-4 — Bind consumption and revision

Pattern: wm-purpose-and-account/recipient-benefit-shapes-the-model

Show the scorer consuming that effective C and participant-relevant outcome evidence informing any authorized revision. Preserve earlier preferences and evaluations; feedback does not grant agents authority to choose new goals.

Composition and interfaces

Each node’s stated artifact is the input or constraint for the related node below. These are design dependencies, not a claim that a runtime scheduler automatically fires patterns. Existing WM producers are reused through the linked contracts; no second implementation is implied.

From To Relation Reason
R19-1 R19-2 requires-result Participant concerns constrain admissible outcome and preference interpretation.
R19-2 R19-3 requires-result Resolved family members determine the actual composition inputs.
R19-3 R19-4 requires-result Only the composed member consumed by the scorer governs this decision.
R19-4 R19-1 revision-feedback A failed distinguishing control or consumer mismatch reopens the original scope/meaning; retain the failed claim rather than weakening it. Relevant controls: Reject swapped fold order, wrong domain, unsupported layer, hidden renormalization and preferences changed without authority. Preserve zero-preference exclusions.

Retain the actual subject, source/model revision, task/occurrence, cutoff, producer and consumer for each interface. A missing field is a named gap; a default that changes the meaning is not an adapter. Reuse existing records where they satisfy these obligations. If a new component is indispensable, identify its exact TODO/cascade clause before seeking a separately bounded implementation instruction.

Worked situation

An introspective layer changes a distribution that the scorer never reads. The declared fold may be mathematically sound, but R19 lacks the consumer join. Conversely, a consumed terminal seed still does not close the family obligation.

This is a distinguishing design example, not a claimed production experiment.

Implementation sequence and closure evidence

  1. Bind the first application to the actual source, task and authority. Resolve the decisions below before their dependent change; do not reproduce a known gap merely to claim activity.
  2. Implement only the specifically dispatched producer/consumer change from the middle applications. Retain the meaningful pre-change failure and relevant post-change controls; do not start a general infrastructure project.
  3. Acquire the final application’s evidence and independent review. Compare it against every clause of the exact TODO, identifying any still-open dependency. Source, tests, serving state, ordinary use and whole-run validation receive different credit.

Distinguishing controls: Reject swapped fold order, wrong domain, unsupported layer, hidden renormalization and preferences changed without authority. Preserve zero-preference exclusions.

Closure rule: every part of the quoted obligation must be supported by the indicated artifacts and actual connections. A useful rejection proves the rejecting boundary only. One accepted subclause does not tick the whole item. A bellback must supply the exact reviewed subject, executed checks, independent verdict and remaining clauses.

Dependencies and authority boundaries

WM-06 · WM-13 · R5 · E08

Mission-layer and other unresolved preference choices remain for their authority; this node supplies no replacement weights.

Dependency links describe required interfaces; they do not authorize work on those items. No implementation outside the existing TODO list is approved. Publication does not select a numerical law, settle an unresolved operator ruling or authorize a run.

Pattern and source scope

All seeded patterns are applied above. The JSON pins their source bytes and the governing checklist/rulings. Historical formulas, thresholds and examples in a pattern remain scoped examples unless the governing contract adopts them. This draft adds no pattern-library entries and claims no independent semantic ratification.
