process-gap(orchestrator): dispatches that RECOMMEND the structurally-safer remediation form instead of MANDATING it — producers pick the fragile option Open

BOHICA-LABS/vsdd-factory#666 · 1 comment · 0 reactions · 0 assignees · Indexed Sep 14, 2026
Proposal: factory-graph — derived traceability graph rehydrated from .factory/ markdown to eliminate identifier cite drift Open

process-gap(per-story-delivery): step (f) silently degrades from 9-step pr-manager process to self-review when subagent spawning is unavailable Open

BOHICA-LABS/vsdd-factory#674 · 2 comments · 0 reactions · 0 assignees · Indexed Sep 14, 2026
process-gap(implementer): fix-phase self-attestation — a fix reported DONE can be unimplemented on disk and guarded by a self-authored test with all assertions commented out (green-side analogue of #475) Open

BOHICA-LABS/vsdd-factory#685 · 1 comment · 0 reactions · 0 assignees · Indexed Sep 14, 2026
process-gap(per-story-delivery + state-manager): parallel/interleaved delivery leaves factory bookkeeping unreconciled — STATE.md 'next story' pointer sends the next session to re-deliver an already-merged story Open

BOHICA-LABS/vsdd-factory#692 · 1 comment · 0 reactions · 0 assignees · Indexed Sep 14, 2026
process-gap(orchestrator+adversary): N-consecutive-clean convergence counts finding-absence with no vector-coverage-novelty requirement — a defect in an unprobed vector survives arbitrarily many 'clean' passes if fresh-context lenses re-probe the same vectors Open

BOHICA-LABS/vsdd-factory#710 · 0 comments · 0 reactions · 0 assignees · Indexed Sep 14, 2026
process-gap(story-writer+orchestrator): a burst that self-flags "residual references left for a follow-on sweep" creates no tracked obligation — the sweep rotted across two later revisions until a manual pre-delivery check forced it Open

BOHICA-LABS/vsdd-factory#711 · 1 comment · 0 reactions · 0 assignees · Indexed Sep 14, 2026
process-gap(state-manager+orchestrator): the story index accumulates each story revision as full changelog prose inside a single table-row cell — one row reached ~25KB / 16 inlined per-version sub-narratives, duplicating the story own changelog into the index Open

BOHICA-LABS/vsdd-factory#712 · 1 comment · 0 reactions · 0 assignees · Indexed Sep 14, 2026
adversarial-review axis proposal: "channel-lifecycle asymmetry" — divergent teardown sets across graceful vs exceptional paths leak resources Open

process-gap(orchestrator+adversary): mandated probe hygiene makes a completed review indistinguishable from an unstarted one — stall recovery misdiagnoses and orders duplicate work Open

process-gap(pr-manager+orchestrator): a creation-only dispatch with explicit do-NOT-merge ran the full 9-step lifecycle and merged before Step-4.5 convergence Open

process-gap(hooks/pr-manager): pr-manager-completion-guard demands step-9 merge-confirmation at SubagentStop before the merge exists — completion pressure on an unmet external fact (fabrication risk; inverse of #707) Open

enhancement(state-manager): a story parked mid-convergence leaves no machine-readable record — STATE.md checkpoint silently predates the rounds that ran Open

enhancement(holdout-evaluator): holdout score goes stale silently as stories ship — no trigger to re-run after N deliveries Open

bug(dispatcher): PostToolUse block (block_intent=true exit_code=2) does not roll back the write, so a blocked edit reports as failed but has landed Open

bug(freeze-integrity): no artifact field has the artifact's own bytes in scope — "unchanged since freeze" is not checkable from the artifact Open

bug(convergence): only machine-checked predicates are a round count and CRIT/HIGH — MEDIUMs do not break the streak, coverage is never checked, and monotonicity penalizes fixing it Open
