The retrospective seed lists planned intents whose target_release names the cut release; itd-2609212103572513's cut has already moved every such target to next.

The retrospective seed lists planned intents whose target_release names the cut release; itd-2609212103572513's cut has already moved every such target to next.

A sequencing impossibility (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.

• End A: .abcd/development/brief/04-surfaces/09-reflect.md:59 — "The planned intents whose target_release names the release and which"
• End B: .abcd/development/intents/shipped/itd-2609212103572513-an-intent-names-the-release-it-must-land.md:41 — "at the cut, each unshipped target the cut passes becomes next (whatever the following release is numbered) in the change that rolls the changelog"

09-reflect.md takes a release tag that has been cut and lists the planned intents whose target_release names that release and did not ship, and its write refuses until they are confirmed. The target intent says that at the cut each unshipped target the cut passes becomes next, in the change that rolls the changelog. By the time reflect can run, no planned intent's target still names the release, so the seed's list and the write's unshipped-targets refusal depend on a value the cut has already rewritten.

• declined: Closed in the 2026-10-27 triage (dcn-2610271112330536) as a duplicate of iss-2610262032250865. Same End A (09-reflect.md:59) and the same sequencing impossibility; itd-2609212103572513's 'The move' bullet is the intent-side statement of the cut rewriting targets to next.
