  • extensionsWrite earned authority anchors in the resident (#7303) Evidence for this change
    • anchored: a prepared row exists at that revision, seals that snapshot, and carries no authority of its own. The vault still pins the committed head below it and the row authenticates as that head's prepare.
    • committed: the committed snapshot head is that revision and digest, and the vault already names it.
    • Anything else, including prepared, is refused as tampered with the vault untouched.
  • extensionsResume a commit retry's own prepared row in the resident (#7301) Evidence for this change
    • commit_pending / mark_committed / finish: the proof is inserted as consumed, or a reserved proof is stamped once (coalesce), in the transaction that commits the row.
    • abandon: the reserved proof is released with the row.
    • current: when the retry's view already shows the row committed, the proof is stamped and the change event queued; no anchor is written.
  • extensionsMigrate a catalog that activates a command pack in the resident (#7300) Evidence for this change
    • migrate takes the pack_reserve the commit path already sends. It reserves the staged activation in the transaction that writes the prepared row and returns pack_bound once the row is anchored. A reservation the…
    • resume with a migration_record records the migration event in the transaction that commits the row. It queues no change event, which matches every other migration.
    • Python runs the same resume loop a commit uses, so the lifecycle floor moves before the resident installs the activation. The Python insert, reserve, finish, snapshot update and event write for this path are gone.
