# Self-Coherence — Cycle #333

> **RETROACTIVE RECONSTRUCTION** — This artifact was not produced during the cycle.
> It is reconstructed post-merge from git history by cycle #335 (issue #335).
> Original merge: `6ffdf48a` on 2026-05-08. Reconstruction date: 2026-05-09.

## Gap Statement

Three upstream CDD patches from `usurobor/tsc` proposals applied to the cnos CDD skill package: pre-review gate rows for the alpha skill, stream-json dispatch requirement for the operator skill, and a re-dispatch prompt complexity note for CDD §1.6b.

## Mode

`design-and-build` — three skill/protocol patches authoring new rules.

## Acceptance Criteria (reconstructed from PR #333 diff)

| # | AC | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | `cdd/alpha/SKILL.md` pre-review gate gains rows 11–13 (artifact enumeration, caller-path trace, test assertion count) | SHIPPED (`efed11e4`) |
| 2 | `cdd/operator/SKILL.md` requires `--output-format stream-json` for all dispatches | SHIPPED (`c48d5a95`) |
| 3 | `CDD.md` §1.6b gains re-dispatch prompt complexity note | SHIPPED (`30c02d1c`) |

## CDD Trace

| Step | Artifact | Skills loaded | Decision |
|------|----------|--------------|----------|
| Design | Three upstream patches (from `usurobor/tsc` proposals) | write, design | patches authored directly |
| Build | Three commits on `cycle/330-tsc-upstream-patches` | — | diff clean, all patches correct |
| Close | (MISSING — reconstructed retroactively) | — | no self-coherence written at cycle time |

## Review Readiness

No review-readiness signal was written. β did not perform an in-cycle review. Patches were authored and merged without the triadic close-out protocol.

## Protocol Gaps at Cycle Time

- No `self-coherence.md` produced (this file is the retroactive substitute)
- No `beta-review.md` produced
- No `alpha-closeout.md` produced
- No `beta-closeout.md` produced
- No `gamma-closeout.md` produced
- No `cdd-iteration.md` produced (this cycle had ≥3 `cdd-*-gap` findings)
- No PRA produced
- No CHANGELOG row added
- Cycle directory never moved (`.cdd/unreleased/333/` never existed)
