itd-138's install script finishes by running `abcd version`; the surfaces register says `version` is a root flag, not a verb
itd-138's install script finishes by running abcd version; the surfaces register says version is a root flag, not a verb
A premise contradiction (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.
- End A:
.abcd/development/intents/shipped/itd-138-bob-installs-abcd-with-one-checksum.md:25— "print the PATH fix when needed, and finish withabcd version" - End B:
.abcd/development/brief/04-surfaces/README.md:156— "versionis the root's--versionflag (itd-2609212130136102), not a verb"
itd-138 says the install script, rendered from the same template as the README one-liner, finishes with abcd version. The surfaces register says version is the root's --version flag and not a verb, so the final step the intent describes invokes a command that the brief's verb tables do not register.
Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 878.
Grounds
- declined: Closed in the 2026-10-27 triage (dcn-2610271112330536): a later record already settles which end holds. The register names the record that made the change, and the template is current.

- dcn-26102711123305362026-10-27 — The product thinker accepted on 2026-10-27 the triage of the 1301 records the 2026-10-26 consistency pass filed. The duplicates, the records a later record already settles, the ones that are no contradiction and the one already fixed are closed with each reader's reason. Every other record gets its fix as its remedy, the rulings' accepted answers included, so a drain can take it. The 45 major records left open are deferred past v0.15.1, because the brief's single-home rewrite rewrites or removes most of the passages they quote. The person ruled the major rulings one at a time; the minor rulings take their recommended answers.
