   Agent work outcome

   • Agent: opencode (interactive session) · Task: opencode/local/2026-09-26-memory-slices
   • State: completed (implementation done, uncommitted, no PR - merge decision left to Human)
   • Delivered: one frozen-persona precedence sentence in ORCHESTRATOR_PROMPT (wording adjusted to order-neutral since persona section renders after the role prompt: ROLE 10350 < PERSONA 10400) + 2 prompt assertions.
   • Verification: adapter suite 8/8 green; typecheck/lint clean.
   • Remaining: review, PR.

   Live verification (isolated 0.1.7-rc.2 Host, deepseek-flash)

   Mechanism holds in every run: snapshot rows byte-identical across turns and a Host restart; refresh only via the #327 path. Behavior splits honestly:

   

   • Compatible file update: agent read the diverged PERSONA.md and followed it (INDIGO-3) despite the frozen prompt. The precedence sentence did not win here.
   • True conflict: agent answered from the frozen prompt (NO-COLORS), and self-reported it never read the file.

   Verdict: mechanism PASS; precedence is a tiebreaker, not a blindfold. Follow-up (stronger wording vs accepting agent discretion) is out of this slice.

   Follow-up linkage from the annotation trim: the PERSONA.md half-sentence now deliberately carries no detail (no diff, no stat) - naming the file is enough to point, and detail would only invite the agent to follow the file over its frozen copy (observed live on FreezeBot). The precedence sentence stays a tiebreaker, not a blindfold.
