The out-of-scope page says the spec close that ships an intent is a manual step; the build loop's landing runs the close itself.

The out-of-scope page says the spec close that ships an intent is a manual step; the build loop's landing runs the close itself.

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

• End A: .abcd/development/brief/06-delivery/03-out-of-scope.md:172 — "the close is a manual step run in the change that lands the work"
• End B: .abcd/development/brief/04-surfaces/34-build.md:743 — "In the lane's worktree it runs the spec's close (which ships the intent and parks the fidelity receipt)"

03-out-of-scope.md says nothing promotes a record on its own and the close is a manual step run in the change that lands the work. 34-build.md says the landing stage runs the spec's close in the lane's worktree, which ships the intent with no person running it. A build run does promote a record on its own, so the manual-step claim does not hold.
