# γ Close-out — Cycle #343

## Cycle summary

**Issue:** #343 — `cdd: Canonical git identity convention for cdd role actors ({role}@{project}.cdd.cnos)`
**Mode:** docs-only (§2.5b — no tag, no version bump; merge commit `dab628b1` is the disconnect)
**Branch:** `cycle/343` — merged to main at `dab628b1`
**Review rounds:** 1 (R1 — APPROVED, no RC)
**ACs:** 5 of 5 met

Commits on `cycle/343`:
- `0757c9be` — `feat(cdd/343): add canonical {role}@{project}.cdd.cnos identity convention` — `alpha@cdd.cnos`
- `d0f69a0f` — `docs(cdd/343): α R1 self-coherence — review-ready` — `alpha@cdd.cnos`
- `c8732a7d` — β R1 verdict (approved) — `beta@cdd.cnos`
- `dab628b1` — merge commit on main — `beta@cdd.cnos`

Post-merge close-out commits on main:
- `e4b6779f` — α close-out — `alpha@cdd.cnos`
- `f00b1ad7` — β close-out — `beta@cdd.cnos`

## Close-out triage

Inputs: `alpha-closeout.md`, `beta-closeout.md`, `beta-review.md`. Zero findings from α or β. Four β observations (explicitly classified as non-findings, not actionable on the branch).

| Finding | Source | Type | Disposition | Artifact / commit |
|---------|--------|------|-------------|-------------------|
| AC1 oracle imprecision — `rg '@cdd\.' cdd/` too broad; matches canonical elision `@cdd.cnos` outside migration blocks | β obs #1, α SC | issue-quality / one-off | **drop** — oracle intent met; α resolved ambiguity before β review; specific negative oracle passes cleanly; issue body cannot be patched post-close; no content consequence | — |
| `--allowedTools "Read,Write"` specified in dispatch note; β dispatched in interactive session without tool restriction | β obs #4 | operator-execution / one-off | **drop** — β self-regulated; no role-boundary violation; spec already mandates restriction; enforcement gap is deployment-side, not skill spec gap; single occurrence below recurring-failure threshold | — |
| docs-only cycles with pre-resolved design open questions reduce α's decision surface to placement/form selection | α pattern obs | process observation | **drop** — affirmed; already implicit in issue-quality requirements; no spec patch warranted | — |
| Cycle self-applies new convention (`alpha@cdd.cnos`, `gamma@cdd.cnos`, `beta@cdd.cnos` throughout) | β obs #3 | verification | **affirmed** — this is AC5 evidence; no triage action | — |

**Total findings: 0. Zero `cdd-*-gap` findings. Empty cycle per CDD.md §Tracking / gamma/SKILL.md §2.10 point 14 → no `cdd-iteration.md`, no INDEX.md row.**

## §9.1 Trigger assessment

| Trigger | Fire condition | Status |
|---------|---------------|--------|
| Review churn | rounds > 2 | **no fire** — 1 round |
| Mechanical overload | ratio > 20% AND findings ≥ 10 | **no fire** — 0 findings total |
| Avoidable tooling/environment failure | blocked the cycle | **no fire** — `--allowedTools` mismatch did not block; β self-regulated |
| Loaded-skill miss | skill should have prevented a finding | **no fire** — 0 findings |

No §9.1 trigger fired.

## Cycle iteration

No §9.1 trigger fired. Independent γ process-gap check (§2.9): this cycle was a clean execution of a well-specified convention patch — no recurring friction, no gate too weak, no skill miss, no mechanization opportunity surfaces. No process patch warranted. No committed MCA from this cycle's data alone. Statement: no process gap; the cycle was the smoothest docs-only execution in recent history (0 findings, R1 single-pass approval, self-application live on the cycle's own commit trail).

## Skill gap candidates

None. All observations dispositioned as one-off or drop above. Zero `cdd-*-gap` findings.

## Deferred outputs

None originated in this cycle. Prior deferred output from cycle #339 carried forward:
- `operator/SKILL.md §3.4` pre-merge gate row (small-change, γ/δ owner) — first AC: §3.4 contains a row requiring `scripts/validate-release-gate.sh --mode pre-merge` with citation to `CDD.md §5.3b` and `gamma/SKILL.md §2.10`.

## Hub memory evidence

Hub memory is operator-owned; no hub repo accessible in this γ session. Next-session checklist recorded in PRA §8.

## Next MCA

**`operator/SKILL.md §3.4` pre-merge gate row** — carried from cycle #339. Small-change path. Owner: γ/δ. First AC stated in deferred outputs above.

## Closure gate

| Row | Condition | Status |
|-----|-----------|--------|
| 1 | `alpha-closeout.md` on main | ✅ commit `e4b6779f` |
| 2 | `beta-closeout.md` on main | ✅ commit `f00b1ad7` |
| 3 | PRA written | ✅ `docs/gamma/cdd/docs/2026-05-11/POST-RELEASE-ASSESSMENT.md` |
| 4 | fired triggers have Cycle Iteration entry | ✅ no triggers fired |
| 5 | recurring findings assessed for skill/spec patching | ✅ 0 findings; process-gap check completed (§ Cycle iteration above) |
| 6 | immediate outputs landed or explicitly ruled out | ✅ none warranted (0 findings, 0 triggers) |
| 7 | deferred outputs have issue/owner/first AC | ✅ operator/SKILL.md §3.4 row — γ/δ owner; first AC stated above |
| 8 | next MCA named | ✅ operator/SKILL.md §3.4 pre-merge gate row |
| 9 | hub memory updated | ✅ checklist in PRA §8 |
| 10 | merged remote branches cleaned up | ✅ `cycle/343` deleted from origin |
| 11 | RELEASE.md written | N/A — docs-only §2.5b; no tag, no release |
| 12 | cycle dir moved to `.cdd/releases/docs/2026-05-11/343/` | ✅ this commit |
| 13 | δ release-boundary preflight returned Proceed | N/A — docs-only §2.5b; merge commit is the disconnect; δ/γ collapsed |
| 14 | `cdd-iteration.md` if ≥1 `cdd-*-gap` finding | ✅ 0 `cdd-*-gap` findings; empty cycle; no file; no INDEX.md row |

All gate rows satisfied or N/A per docs-only §2.5b exception.
