Ahoy calls the remote apply the one verb that mutates state off this machine; reserve exists to write a branch on the shared remote

A premise contradiction (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.

  • End A: .abcd/development/brief/04-surfaces/01-ahoy.md:90 — "the one abcd verb that mutates state outside this machine"
  • End B: .abcd/development/brief/04-surfaces/37-reserve.md:4 — "it reserves the record on the shared remote as a branch nobody merges"

01-ahoy states that the remote apply is the one abcd verb that mutates state outside this machine. 37-reserve's whole purpose is to write the reservation, as a branch, on the shared remote that other people and computers read. That is a push to origin, which is state outside this machine. A reader who trusts ahoy's claim would not count the reservation verb among abcd's outward writes.

Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 284.

Grounds

  • declined: Closed in the 2026-10-27 triage (dcn-2610271112330536) as a duplicate of iss-2610262032226321. Same false 'one verb mutates state outside this machine' claim; this record cites reserve as the counterexample.
