Section titled “2026-09-25 — Countersign chronicle-hq’s row of the PORTFOLIO DR-block ledger”Date: 2026-09-25 Status: ratified Verb: petrova_act_registry_edit (estate.yaml) Slug: chronicle-hq MR-compliance: MR-7, MR-9, MR-12
Context
Section titled “Context”docs/decisions/2026-08-13-ptv-scf-0001-p2-c4-dr-allocation.md proposed six
new RING2 elements grouping the 35 domain-less slugs, gate G-P2-6 passed, and
the phase closed with the ledger “delivered uncountersigned by design” —
ratification explicitly left to the operator (p2-close.md row C4). It has
sat uncountersigned since.
chronicle-hq needs its DR block allocated before domain-file part 3 (requirement diagram) can be authored — part 3 is currently blocked, not merely unwritten, on exactly this.
Rationale
Section titled “Rationale”Rather than blanket-countersigning all 17 PORTFOLIO-group rows (choco-hq, grace-hq, so1-console, nestr, oompa-tools, so1-io, chronicle-hq, aphelion-craft, casa-nuova, and the remainder of rows 15–31), which would allocate governance scope for 16 repos with no request behind it in this session, this decision countersigns chronicle-hq’s row only:
estate.yaml gains the PORTFOLIO RING2 element (DR-4000..4099,
domain: D_ENG, matching the proposal) with members: [chronicle-hq]. Per
G1 the block itself is allocated once and never reissued — a later, separate
countersign for any of the other 16 slugs adds a member to this same element
and block, it does not reallocate one.
The other 16 slugs stay under OTHER (members_from: unallocated) until
each gets its own operator countersign, same as before this change.
Change summary
Section titled “Change summary”estate.yaml:
dr_blocks[]: addsDR-4000..4099 / D_ENG / PORTFOLIO.elements[]: addsPORTFOLIO(RING2,members: [chronicle-hq]).
docs/domains/chronicle-hq.md regenerated via npm run domains:generate
(part 1 only changes — DR block row; parts 3–5 remain separately authored,
tracked in a follow-up decision).
