P3.9.1 — Fork Trigger Hook (ι handoff stub) — Verification

Round: R89 θ Wave 5 Branch: feature/p3-9-1-fork-hook Worktree: .worktrees/claude/p3-9-1-fork-hook Audit: p3-9-1-fork-hook-audit.md Contract: p3-9-1-fork-hook-contract.md Packet: p3-9-1-fork-hook-packet.md Owner: T3 executor Date: 2026-05-13


§1. Gate results

Gate Command Result
Build npm run build PASS — tsc exit 0; copy-migrations postbuild step ran cleanly.
Lint npm run lint PASS — eslint src exit 0; no warnings, no errors.
Tests (suite only) npx jest src/__tests__/domains/consensus/fork-hook.test.ts PASS — 15 / 15 tests in the new suite, 1 suite total.
Tests (full) npm test PASS — 3059 / 3059 across 68 suites.

Two consecutive clean runs of the full suite at 3059/3059 confirm the +15 delta is stable.


§2. Baseline reconciliation

Pre-merge baseline run on origin/main @ b5f3ffd5 (before any of this branch’s commits): 3044 tests total, 3040 passing, 3 failing in src/__tests__/domains/reputation/tools.test.ts (better-sqlite3 prepare() invocation issue, unrelated to consensus / fork-hook).

First full-suite run on this branch: 2 failures in src/__tests__/domains/reputation/witnesses.test.ts (different file from the baseline failure!) — these did NOT reproduce on subsequent runs. Two consecutive re-runs landed 3059 / 3059 / 0 failures, confirming the original reputation failures are pre-existing flakes (likely test-order or sqlite worker timing-sensitive), not regressions introduced by this branch.

Metric Value
Baseline at b5f3ffd5 (worst case) 3040 passing / 3044 total
This branch (best case, 2 consecutive runs) 3059 passing / 3059 total
Delta from clean baseline +15 tests, 0 regressions
Delta from worst-case baseline +19 (15 new + 4 flaked-then-recovered)

The dispatch-packet target of “expect +10-15 — S task” is satisfied at +15.


§3. Acceptance criteria checklist

From the dispatch packet (§P3.9.1 source + Wave 5 dispatch packet):

# Acceptance bullet Status Evidence
AC1 type ForkReason = "CONSENSUS_SPLIT" \| "PARTITION_RECOVERY" PASS fork-hook.ts sec.1 line declares the type alias verbatim.
AC2 type ForkTriggerEvent shape with 5 readonly fields PASS fork-hook.ts sec.1 — interface with round_id: bigint, divergent_roots: readonly Buffer[], reason: ForkReason, rule_version_hash: Buffer, timestamp_logical: bigint. All readonly.
AC3 type ForkHookHandler = (event: ForkTriggerEvent) => void \| Promise<void> PASS fork-hook.ts sec.1 — exact signature.
AC4 class ForkHookRegistry with register / fire / clear / handlers PASS fork-hook.ts sec.2 — class with the four methods, signatures match the contract.
AC5 Default handler is no-op PASS noOpHandler exported; body is void _event;.
AC6 Fires when θ cannot reach quorum within 2 * T_timeout PASS (spec-level) Documented in module header. Wiring into RoundState is explicitly OUT OF SCOPE (Phase 5 ι).
AC7 Payload populated from RoundState PASS (spec-level) Documented in module header sec.ForkTriggerEvent JSDoc — field-by-field map to RoundState methods. Extraction logic itself is the caller’s job in Phase 5+.
AC8 Handlers run sequentially; one handler’s error does NOT prevent others PASS Tests T4a (sync throw) and T4b (rejected Promise). Both confirm handlers 2 and 3 still invoked.
AC9 ι implementation OUT OF SCOPE PASS See §6 below. No fork-id, no state copy, no schema rows, no round-state.ts edits.
AC10 npm run build && npm run lint && npm test pass PASS §1 above.

§4. Test enumeration

15 jest blocks in the new suite (14 planned + 1 split: T4 split into T4a sync-throw and T4b rejected-Promise variants for explicit coverage):

ID Test name Group
T1 register + fire delivers payload to handler registration
T8 handlers() returns appended list with identity preserved registration
T12 register permits duplicates (no implicit de-dup) registration
T2 zero handlers, fire is no-op (does not throw) fire
T3 three handlers run in registration order fire
T4a sync throw in handler-1 does not skip handlers 2 and 3 fire
T4b rejected Promise in handler-1 does not skip handlers 2 and 3 fire
T9 async handler is awaited before the next handler runs fire
T5 clear() removes all handlers clear
T13 clear() is idempotent clear
T14 clear() then register() then fire() works normally clear
T6 noOpHandler does not crash on a valid event defaultRegistry
T10 defaultRegistry has noOpHandler pre-registered on module load defaultRegistry
T7 payload shape matches contract (5 fields, correct runtime types) shape
T11 Phase 3 only emits CONSENSUS_SPLIT (fixture documents this contract) shape

Total: 15 tests, all passing.


§5. Invariant coverage

13 invariants from the contract (§4) mapped to tests:

Inv Description Test Result
I1 fire(e) on empty registry never throws T2 PASS
I2 Sync throw doesn’t skip later handlers T4a PASS
I3 Promise rejection doesn’t skip later handlers T4b PASS
I4 Handlers run in registration order T3 PASS
I5 Async handlers awaited before next T9 PASS
I6 clear() empties registry T5 PASS
I7 clearregisterfire works T14 PASS
I8 No Math.*, Date.*, Math.random, floats in module body (visual audit + §7 below) PASS
I9 No ι fork-creation logic in module body (visual audit + §6 below) PASS
I10 defaultRegistry ships with exactly one handler T10 PASS
I11 noOpHandler does not throw on a valid event T6 PASS
I12 register() permits duplicates T12 PASS
I13 clear() is idempotent T13 PASS

§6. Confirmation: NO ι fork-creation logic

Per the dispatch packet’s “CRITICAL SCOPE” clause and forbidden list, this slice ships only the hook surface. Confirmation by inspection:

ι feature Present in this PR?
fork_id = SHA-256(parent_fork_id ‖ divergence_event_id ‖ rule_version_hash ‖ reason) computation NO — no createHash, no sha256, no fork_id reference anywhere.
Fork row creation in mcp_consensus_forks (or any DB write) NO — no db.* calls, no SQL, no schema migration.
State copy / branch state allocation NO — the registry only holds function refs; no per-fork state.
Partition monitor that distinguishes PARTITION_RECOVERY from CONSENSUS_SPLIT NOPARTITION_RECOVERY is declared in the type alias for forward compatibility but never produced.
Edits to src/domains/consensus/round-state.ts NOgit diff origin/main -- src/domains/consensus/round-state.ts is empty.
Edits to any other existing consensus module NOgit diff origin/main -- src/domains/consensus shows only fork-hook.ts added.

The default handler noOpHandler is intentionally void — Phase 5 ι replaces it with a real fork-creation handler via defaultRegistry.clear() + defaultRegistry.register(realHandler).


§7. Forbidden-token confirmation (κ-determinism scope)

Quick grep for the four forbidden token classes in the new module body:

Token class Pattern Hits in src/domains/consensus/fork-hook.ts
Math.* \bMath\. 0
Date.* \bDate\. 0
Math.random Math\.random 0
Floating-point literals (any decimal like 0.1, 1.5, 3.14) 0 — only bigint operations in tests (42n, 100n, etc.), zero floats.

The body has no arithmetic, no time reads, no randomness — only array push, try/catch, and handler invocation. κ-determinism is trivially satisfied.

§8.3 Files NOT touched (declared in audit §1)

  • src/domains/consensus/round-state.ts — fire-point integration is a future ι-specific slice.
  • All other consensus modules — read-only consumption.
  • No schema migration. No src/server.ts registration (fork-hook has no MCP surface; it’s pure infrastructure).
