The surfaces register lists drain among the verbs no person types, while the drain chapter calls it the verb a person types

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

  • End A: .abcd/development/brief/04-surfaces/README.md:152 — "agents and hosts | — | announce, banlist, docs, drain"
  • End B: .abcd/development/brief/04-surfaces/35-drain.md:3 — "/abcd:drain is the verb a person types to have the open issue ledger worked unattended"

The register's help table puts drain in the agents-and-hosts block, and the same page says the product thinker placed verbs by who types them, listing with the agents only a command no person types. The drain chapter opens by calling /abcd:drain the verb a person types to have the ledger worked unattended. A verb cannot be both one no person types and the one a person types, so either its placement or the chapter's framing is wrong.

Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 681.

Grounds

  • declined: Closed in the 2026-10-27 triage (dcn-2610271112330536) as a duplicate of iss-2610262037594127. Same contradiction viewed from the register: commands/drain.md is user-invocable false, so the chapter's framing is what is wrong.
