itd-117 puts the user-scope rules at ~/.abcd/rules.json; itd-77 puts abcd's user-level home at ~/.abcd.noindex/

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

End A: .abcd/development/intents/shipped/itd-117-development-instructions-live-in-the.md:19 — "now live once in ~/.abcd/rules.json and inject into every"
End B: .abcd/development/intents/drafts/itd-77-relocatable-user-home.md:17 — "That state lives in abcd's user-level home — ~/.abcd.noindex/ by default"

itd-117 says machine-wide conventions live in ~/.abcd/rules.json. itd-77 says the user-level home, where abcd keeps per-person state, is ~/.abcd.noindex/ by default. The two records name different home directories for the same user-scope layer, so someone building from either would read or write a different path.

Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 1171.

Grounds

declined: Closed in the 2026-10-27 triage (dcn-2610271112330536): a later record already settles which end holds. The two homes are the old and new names of one folder, and the rename record is the one that says which holds.

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.
