## Mission

Perform a Ralph-backed adversarial audit of `ticket:20260515-loom-driver-rename` before closure. Challenge whether the Driver rename is complete across filenames, IDs, source text, adapter manifests, docs, and Loom records without changing behavior or leaving stale predecessor-name references in workspace files.

## Context Bundle

Records:

- `ticket:20260515-loom-driver-rename` - target ticket and acceptance criteria.
- `packet:20260515T070409Z-loom-driver-rename` - execution packet and worker output.
- `evidence:20260515-loom-driver-rename-validation` - validation observations for filename/content search and checks.
- `spec:loom-driver-agent` - renamed behavior contract.
- Driver-related prior tickets, packets, evidence, and audit records under `.loom/` - renamed graph that should tie out.

Files, Diffs, Or External References:

- `loom-core/agents/loom-driver.md` - canonical prompt.
- `loom-core/codex/agents/loom-driver.toml` - Codex prompt copy.
- `loom-core/loom-core.mjs` - helper names, registration, permissions, and smoke checks.
- `loom-core/.claude-plugin/plugin.json` and `loom-core/.codex-plugin/plugin.json` - adapter surfaces.
- `INSTALL.md`, `README.md`, `loom-core/README.md`, and `ARCHITECTURE.md` - docs touched by the rename.
- Current `git status --short` and scoped diff - source reality for tracked changes and untracked renamed surfaces.

## Write Scope

Records Or Artifacts:

- this packet - fill `## Worker Output` and update `Status:` to `consumed` when output is recorded.
- `None` for other Loom records - audit record creation belongs to the parent after the worker returns.

Source Paths:

- `None` - this is a read-only audit pass.

## Source Snapshot

As of packet compilation, `git status --short` shows tracked modifications to docs, adapter manifests, and `loom-core/loom-core.mjs`; untracked renamed Driver records, packets, evidence, audit records, spec, ticket records, and agent prompt/TOML files. The target ticket is `Status: review` and says implementation appears complete except fresh Ralph-backed audit.

Validation evidence says filename and content searches found no predecessor-name workspace occurrences outside `.git/` metadata, Core smoke passed, Core package dry-run passed, diff whitespace check passed, and Claude plugin validation passed.

## Task

Review the target as an adversarial auditor. Do not edit source files or non-packet Loom records.

Challenge these questions:

- Do all workspace filenames and record IDs use the Driver name consistently?
- Do source files, docs, adapter manifests, and Loom records contain only Driver naming for this agent surface?
- Do renamed records still cross-link coherently after ID and filename changes?
- Does source still register and validate the Driver agent rather than relying on stale helper names, smoke keys, or packed paths?
- Does the evidence support the exact rename claims without overclaiming VCS metadata or live runtime behavior?
- Did the rename change behavior beyond terminology or add compatibility aliases that the ticket excluded?
- Are product-visible prompt surfaces still free of contributor-only process and self-justification?

Non-goals:

- Do not implement fixes.
- Do not close the ticket.
- Do not create the audit record; return review output in this packet.
- Do not write predecessor literal terms into this packet output or any other file; refer to them as legacy predecessor terms if needed.

## Evidence, Review, Or Verification Expectations

Return concrete audit output with `FIND-*` IDs for material issues. If there are no material findings, say `None - no material findings within audited scope` and explain residual risks. The verdict must use one of `clear`, `concerns`, `changes-needed`, or `inconclusive` and must be bounded to the inspected records, files, diffs, and evidence.

## Stop Conditions

- Return `blocked` if required target records or files are missing.
- Return `escalate` if the review reveals a compatibility or migration policy decision outside this ticket's scope.
- Return `continue` only if another bounded packet is clearly needed before audit can be recorded.
- Return `stop` when this review pass has enough findings or no-findings output for the parent to record an audit.

## Output Contract

The worker must update this packet or return output with:

- outcome: `continue`, `stop`, `blocked`, or `escalate`
- files changed
- records changed
- evidence, review findings, validation output, or observations gathered
- what was not verified or reviewed
- blockers, risks, or assumptions discovered
- recommended next move for the consuming surface

If material findings exist, include stable `FIND-*` IDs with severity, confidence, cited file/record references, the challenged claim or risk, and required follow-up.

## Worker Output

Outcome: `stop`

Files changed:

- `.loom/packets/ralph/20260515T071315Z-loom-driver-rename-audit.md` - recorded audit worker output and marked the packet consumed.

Records changed:

- `packet:20260515T071315Z-loom-driver-rename-audit` only.

Evidence, review findings, validation output, or observations gathered:

- Reviewed `ticket:20260515-loom-driver-rename`, `packet:20260515T070409Z-loom-driver-rename`, `evidence:20260515-loom-driver-rename-validation`, and `spec:loom-driver-agent`.
- Reviewed scoped product and adapter surfaces: `loom-core/agents/loom-driver.md`, `loom-core/codex/agents/loom-driver.toml`, `loom-core/loom-core.mjs`, `loom-core/.claude-plugin/plugin.json`, `loom-core/.codex-plugin/plugin.json`, `INSTALL.md`, `README.md`, `loom-core/README.md`, and `ARCHITECTURE.md`.
- Workspace filename search outside `.git/` returned no legacy predecessor terms.
- Workspace content search outside `.git/` returned no legacy predecessor terms.
- Current `git status --short` matches the expected rename shape: tracked docs, adapter manifests, and `loom-core/loom-core.mjs` are modified; renamed Driver prompt, Codex TOML, and Loom records are untracked.
- Scoped tracked diff shows Driver registration, helper names, smoke assertions, docs, and adapter manifest references updated without adding compatibility aliases.
- `npm --prefix loom-core run smoke` passed with `ok: true`, Driver agent registration, Codex prompt parity, direction-record boundary checks, and Driver execution-record permission checks.
- `npm --prefix loom-core run pack:check` passed and the dry-run tarball listed `agents/loom-driver.md` and `codex/agents/loom-driver.toml`.
- `git diff --check` passed with no output.
- `claude plugin validate "$PWD/loom-core"` passed.
- Model-visible Driver prompt surfaces were checked for contributor-only leakage cues; no material leakage was found within the audited scope. The only repository-related wording observed was generic packet context about branch/worktree when repository files may change, which is operational packet context rather than package, adapter, dogfood, or contributor workflow explanation.

Findings:

- None - no material findings within audited scope.

Verdict:

- `clear` - Within the inspected records, files, diffs, searches, and validation commands, the rename is consistent, evidence supports the ticket's stated rename claims, and no material stale predecessor naming, broken Driver registration, behavior-expanding compatibility alias, or product-surface leakage was found.

What was not verified or reviewed:

- Live runtime invocation in OpenCode, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or Gemini was not performed.
- VCS metadata under `.git/` was not inspected or rewritten.
- This audit did not inspect unrelated package surfaces outside the packet read scope except through workspace filename/content searches.

Blockers, risks, or assumptions discovered:

- No blocker discovered.
- Residual risk remains limited to live harness invocation and adapter runtime behavior beyond static manifest/package validation.
- The audit assumes the current working tree state is the intended rename candidate because the target rename remains uncommitted.

Recommended next move for the consuming surface:

- Parent should record the audit result in `.loom/audit/` and then reconcile `ticket:20260515-loom-driver-rename` closure against its acceptance criteria, evidence limits, and this `clear` verdict.
