## Task Ledger

| ID | Status | Task | Evidence | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| T1.1 | done | Update HEURISTIC_SYSTEM.md to own the triage checklist and new lifecycle | `HEURISTIC_SYSTEM.md`; `tests/test_heuristic_system_docs.py` | Unified the two activation paths into one triage signal while keeping `skill-usage.record.v1` as a deterministic envelope rule. Added an explicit `open \| promoted \| wontfix` line under `## Error Inbox` and called out legacy read-back compatibility. |
| T1.2 | done | Cross-link the checklist and update lifecycle from sibling docs | `heuristic-system/error-inbox/README.md`; `skills/workflows/heuristic-system/heuristic-error-inbox/SKILL.md` | Lifecycle list narrowed to three states; `## Workflow` step 1 now cross-links `HEURISTIC_SYSTEM.md#activation-and-triage` instead of restating the criteria; command-surface example updated to `--status open\|promoted\|wontfix`. |
| T1.3 | done | Narrow the helper enum and add legacy-read compatibility test | `skills/workflows/heuristic-system/heuristic-error-inbox/bin/heuristic_error_inbox.py`; `skills/workflows/heuristic-system/heuristic-error-inbox/tests/test_workflows_heuristic_system_heuristic_error_inbox.py` | `VALID_STATUSES` collapsed to `{open, promoted, wontfix}`; new `LEGACY_STATUSES` + `READABLE_STATUSES` constants keep `list`/`verify` legacy-read working. `set-status` removes argparse `choices` so legacy values surface a tailored exit-1 message that names the new lifecycle. New tests cover legacy-read on `list` + `verify` and write rejection on `set-status`. |
| T2.1 | done | Run targeted gates and fix drift | `scripts/check.sh --tests -- -k "heuristic_system or heuristic_error_inbox"`: 27 passed; `scripts/check.sh --markdown`: clean | Fixed line-wrap drift on two test pins by switching to `_collapsed(text)` matches. |
| T2.2 | done | Run the full repo gate and prepare delivery | `scripts/check.sh --all`: pass, 823 pytest tests passed | No out-of-scope edits leaked; archived gitlab-mr entry left untouched. |

## Validation

| Command | Status | Summary | Artifact |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `agent-docs --docs-home "$HOME/.claude" resolve --context startup --strict --format checklist` | warn | Strict resolve fails because `~/.claude/CODEX_AGENTS.md` and `~/.claude/docs/runbooks/agent-docs/MEMORY_USAGE.md` are not deployed locally. Pre-existing gap, unrelated to this plan. | n/a |
| `agent-docs --docs-home "$HOME/.claude" baseline --check --target all --strict --format text` | warn | Same two home-scope docs reported `missing`; user opted to proceed since the gap is orthogonal to Tier 2 work. | n/a |
| `scripts/check.sh --tests -- -k "heuristic_system or heuristic_error_inbox"` | pass | 27 targeted tests passed. | `/Users/terry/.agents/out/tests/script-coverage/summary.md` |
| `scripts/check.sh --markdown` | pass | Markdown lint passed for 271 files. | n/a |
| `plan-tooling validate --file docs/plans/heuristic-tier2-doc-compression/heuristic-tier2-doc-compression-plan.md` | pass | Plan structure validated. | n/a |
| `scripts/check.sh --all` | pass | Full local gate passed; 823 pytest tests passed. | `/tmp/check-all-pr1.log` |

## Retention Intent

Execution-state for plan delivery; cleanup-eligible after the matching PR
merges and the durable docs reflect the new shape.
