-
-Exclude initiative setup without a turn or combat event, tactical planning,
-table talk, rules lookup, hypothetical events, abandoned intentions, recaps
-outside the current passage, and downstream consequences. Do not infer combat
-events from Dungeons & Dragons rules knowledge. Preserve the session as played
-and attribute relevant nonstandard rulings to the GM or table. Unmatched actors
-remain permitted.
-
-Treat each record as one turn-level event and keep its supporting transcript
-evidence together. Use `turn` for a regular combat turn, `reaction` for an
-off-turn reaction, `legendary_action` for a legendary action,
-`lair_action` for a lair action, and `other` for another discrete combat
-event that does not fit those categories.

-Extract Dungeons & Dragons enemy events from the supplied combat transcript.
-An `engaged` event requires direct establishment that a subject is actively
-opposing the party in combat. A `killed`, `fled`, `captured`, or
-`incapacitated` event requires explicit establishment of that outcome. An
-outcome may share evidence with an engagement, and a later engagement or
-outcome for the same subject remains a separate observation. Emit at most one
-`engaged` observation for the same subject in this combat scene.
-
-For `killed`, direct death or killing is required. For `fled`, the subject
-must explicitly escape, retreat, or leave combat to avoid continued engagement.
-For `captured`, the subject must be explicitly taken prisoner or secured
-under the party's control. For `incapacitated`, the subject must be explicitly
-unable to continue acting without being established as killed or captured.
-
-When the transcript identifies a named NPC, use its normalized registry
-spelling. A hostile creature without a registry entry is allowed. For unnamed
-individuals or groups, use only the narrowest transcript-grounded label, such
-as `Orcs`, `One orc`, or `Remaining orcs`; never invent member names, IDs,
-or quantities.
-
-Exclude party members, allies, neutral observers, mentioned-but-absent enemies,
-hazards, traps, environmental effects, uncertain allegiance, table talk,
-planning, hypotheses, recaps outside this passage, and downstream inference.
-Do not infer an engagement or outcome from initiative, turn absence, damage,
-defeat, movement, or a scene ending.

-Extract meaningful Dungeons & Dragons item and currency occurrences: discoveries and changes
-in party possession established by the transcript. This is an occurrence history,
-not an inventory or ledger: do not calculate balances, resolve item identity
-across records, or infer ownership that the transcript does not establish.
-
-For every occurrence, use the supplied canonical item `name`. Record a stated
-quantity as an integer and leave it null when the transcript does not state
-one. Preserve the stated currency denomination through the selected canonical
-registry name.
-
-Use `discovered` when the party learns of or encounters an item without
-establishing possession. Use `acquired` when the party or a party member gains
-possession. Use `lost` when party possession ends through a gift, sale, payment,
-theft, abandonment, or destruction not caused by intended use. Use `consumed`
-when intended use depletes an expendable item. Monetary spending, purchases, and
-payments are always `lost`, not `consumed`. Classify currency as `consumed` only
-when the transcript explicitly describes it being physically destroyed or
-expended as a non-payment component. Use `transferred` only when possession
-moves between two distinct named party members.
-
-Return both `from` and `to` for every occurrence, using `null` when a holder does not
-apply. For `discovered`, set both holders to `null`. For `acquired`, set `from`
-to `null` and provide `to`; for `lost` and `consumed`, provide `from` and set
-`to` to `null`; and for `transferred`, provide both holders. Use `party` only
-for collective or unresolved party possession, never for either side of a
-transfer. Do not emit a transfer for a gift, sale, or payment outside the party.

-discovery, or discovery from an acquisition: emit both only when each is
-independently established.

-# ADR-0010: Use workload-oriented LLM profile defaults
-
-**Status:** Accepted
-**Date:** 2026-08-03
-
-## Context
-
-LLM-backed D&D operations share an execution-policy choice, but repeating a
-provider or model-named profile on every module binding ties pipeline structure
-to a deployment decision. Different environments may require different model,
-backend, timeout, or reasoning settings while retaining the same workload.
-
-Notarius also needs a usable default for maintained D&D prompts without making
-an operator profile mandatory. That default must remain owned by the D&D
-family, while generic LLM infrastructure stays unaware of domain-specific
-policy.
-
-## Decision
-
-Pipelines may name one workload-oriented default profile, inherited only by
-selected LLM-backed bindings and validators. Binding-level profile IDs remain
-intentional exceptions, and the run-wide CLI profile override has highest
-precedence.
-
-The D&D family owns an embedded fallback profile named `dnd-extraction`.
-Operators may provide a complete profile with the same ID through a PromptKit
-filesystem source. PromptKit selects the higher-precedence matching definition;
-Notarius does not merge profile documents. Production, development, and local
-deployments can therefore use different execution policy behind one unchanged
-pipeline ID.
-
-## Alternatives considered
-
-- Repeat a model-named profile on every binding. This makes routine deployment
-  policy changes noisy and obscures the shared workload intent.
-- Require every deployment to install a profile file. This adds configuration
-  friction and leaves maintained D&D prompts without an application-owned
-  fallback.
-- Put D&D profile policy in generic LLM infrastructure. This breaks domain
-  ownership and makes generic code depend on one workload.
-
-## Consequences
-
-Pipeline configuration expresses workload intent rather than a specific
-provider or model. Operators can replace the complete execution policy without
-editing bindings, while binding-level and run-wide exceptions remain available.
-Profile changes affect resolved pipeline and checkpoint identity, so they may
-intentionally cause work to be recomputed. The D&D fallback becomes a
-maintained application execution-policy asset.

-# ADR-0011: Centralize LLM-facing assets in a content-only package
-
-**Status:** Accepted
-**Date:** 2026-08-05
-
-## Context
-
-LLM prompts, private response schemas, generic schemas, and fallback profiles
-are authored and reviewed as content, but package-local embedding scattered that
-content across implementation trees. Finding all of the assets that contribute
-to a prompt family required navigating code ownership boundaries rather than a
-single discoverable content boundary.
-
-The repository must retain module ownership of prompt semantics, schema
-identities, registration, and prompt-cache behavior. Durable artifact schemas
-and non-LLM domain data have different compatibility and ownership rules, so
-they must not move merely because they are embedded files.
-
-## Decision
-
-LLM-facing content is embedded by the root `assets` package. It is a data-only
-dependency leaf: its single `FS() fs.FS` API returns the read-only embedded
-filesystem, and the package contains no business logic or internal or PromptKit
-dependencies. The accepted import path is
-`gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/notarius/assets`; it makes repository-owned
-content available to its consumers, not a public extension contract.
-
-Consumers scope that filesystem to the subtree they own before reading or
-registering content. Modules continue to own their manifests, prompt ordering,
-private response-schema identity, and registration. Centralizing physical files
-does not centralize domain semantics or transfer those responsibilities to the
-root package.
-
-The root package contains prompt content, private LLM response schemas, generic
-LLM schemas, shared fragments, and fallback profiles. Durable artifact schemas
-and non-LLM domain data remain with their current owners. A module fingerprint
-is derived from its manifest-selected module and shared files, rather than from
-an entire asset tree. The relocation is accepted to cause a one-time checkpoint
-invalidation.
-
-This decision supersedes only the physical asset-co-location portion of
-ADR-0004's decision that places domain-specific prompt fragments and schemas
-within the domain tree. ADR-0004's domain-first packaging and registrar
-ownership decisions remain accepted.
-
-## Alternatives Considered
-
-- Keep package-local assets. This preserves physical co-location with code but
-  makes prompt-author discovery and cross-family review unnecessarily costly.
-- Use `internal/llmassets`. This would hide content from legitimate owners
-  outside the `internal` subtree and would make the root asset boundary depend
-  on implementation-layer placement.
-- Build a behavioral central registry. This would mix content discovery with
-  prompt selection and registration behavior, moving module semantics into a
-  shared registry.
-- Use runtime filesystem overlays. This would add runtime configuration and
-  failure modes where compile-time embedded content is sufficient.
-
-## Consequences
-
-Prompt authors can find in-scope LLM content in one top-level tree while module
-packages continue to define its meaning and registration. Consumers have an
-explicit, narrow dependency on only the content they need. The root package is
-intentionally importable but must remain a stable, content-only leaf rather
-than becoming a general extension API.
-
-The initial relocation invalidates existing checkpoints once. Later checkpoint
-identity changes remain limited to the manifest-selected prompt and shared
-content, so unrelated files do not trigger recomputation.

-# ADR-0012: Resolve opaque entity identifiers deterministically
-
-**Status:** Accepted
-**Date:** 2026-08-08
-
-## Context
-
-Entity IDs in durable Notarius artifacts are application-owned, deterministic
-identifiers. They are useful to artifact consumers, but their hash-based form
-does not help a model distinguish entities and would make the model reproduce
-an opaque implementation detail. A plain name is likewise insufficient where
-multiple supplied records share that name.
-
-The LLM boundary must preserve the typed artifact and durable-schema ownership
-of [ADR-0003](0003-typed-interfaces-with-two-zone-data-model.md) and the distinction
-between disambiguating references and source evidence in
-[ADR-0009](0009-minimal-evidence-grounded-extraction-artifacts.md).
-
-## Decision
-
-Callers present a model with semantic selections: a canonical name when it is
-unique in the request, or a contextual descriptor containing the name and
-source coordinates when that context is needed to distinguish supplied
-records. The model returns only those supplied selections. The caller resolves
-each accepted selection against the request-local supplied records and attaches
-the opaque application ID deterministically.
-
-Source coordinates are permitted in a selection solely as identity context.
-They neither establish an occurrence fact nor replace that occurrence's
-current-transcript evidence. A selector must resolve exactly; unknown,
-ambiguous, partial, reordered, or otherwise unsafe selections are not mapped.
-Where an operation requires a complete grounded artifact, that failure rejects
-the complete artifact rather than accepting a partially mapped result.
-
-An explicitly scoped request-local short label is permitted only when a
-contextual descriptor would be impractical and the caller can deterministically
-map the label within that one request. Such a label is not a durable ID, must
-not escape the request boundary, and requires a concrete justification in its
-own module contract.
-
-## Alternatives considered
-
-- Ask the model to return durable IDs. This exposes opaque implementation
-  state, does not improve semantic disambiguation, and makes model output
-  depend on hash formatting.
-- Select by name alone. This cannot safely distinguish same-name records.
-- Make request-local labels durable identifiers. This would turn prompt
-  presentation into a public identity contract and create avoidable migration
-  pressure.
-- Let the model invent identifiers or resolve ambiguity. This makes identity
-  assignment non-deterministic and weakens validation.
-
-## Consequences
-
-Durable integration contracts retain their exact ID/name pairs while models
-operate on readable contextual selections. Calling modules must own selector
-construction, exact resolution, ambiguity handling, and conversion into their
-durable artifact type; PromptKit and its adapter remain transport-only.
-
-Some ambiguous or invalid proposals are deliberately omitted, retried, or
-rejected according to the caller's existing failure policy. Internal candidate
-keys may support deterministic request-local mapping, but they are not
-model-visible selectors or durable data. This adds local validation work while
-keeping identity assignment auditable and stable.

-# ADR-0013: Use request-local candidate handles for semantic reconciliation
-
-**Status:** Accepted
-**Date:** 2026-08-09
-
-## Context
-
-Several typed normalize stage modules need semantic reconciliation after
-deterministic preprocessing: a model can judge whether source-backed candidates
-refer to the same underlying entity, while application code remains responsible
-for constructing the normalized artifact. Requiring the model to reproduce a
-candidate's full contextual selector makes the response larger and introduces
-avoidable formatting, ordering, and transcription failure modes.
-
-Reconciliation must preserve the exact typed artifact boundary established by
-[ADR-0003](0003-typed-interfaces-with-two-zone-data-model.md), the domain-neutral
-framework and concrete-domain dependency direction established by
-[ADR-0004](0004-package-modules-by-domain.md), and the distinction in
-[ADR-0009](0009-minimal-evidence-grounded-extraction-artifacts.md) between source
-evidence and auxiliary identity context. It also needs a concrete, narrowly
-scoped application of the request-local-label exception allowed by
-[ADR-0012](0012-resolve-opaque-entity-identifiers-deterministically.md).
-
-## Decision
-
-Semantic reconciliation will be a domain-neutral framework mechanism used by
-typed normalize stage modules. A consuming artifact family will retain
-ownership of its typed records, identity rules, consolidation policy, durable
-IDs, and domain warnings; the framework mechanism will not infer those rules
-from arbitrary data.
-
-For each reconciliation request, deterministic code will assign every eligible
-model-visible candidate a contiguous, one-based integer handle. The model may
-receive the candidate's contextual label, source references, and bounded source
-context needed to judge identity, but its structured response will identify
-candidates only by those supplied handles. A handle is local to one request,
-does not represent entity identity, and must never enter a durable artifact or
-be used to derive a durable ID.
-
-The model will propose duplicate groups and select one supplied member of each
-group as canonical. Deterministic code will resolve the handles through the
-retained request mapping, validate the complete proposal, discard unsafe
-groups, and apply only validated groups through typed domain-owned policy. The
-model will not synthesize replacement records or directly mutate an artifact.
-
-Every reconciliation prompt will combine a mandatory framework-owned protocol
-and safety policy with an explicitly selected semantic policy. The semantic
-policy may be the conservative generic policy or a domain-owned policy, but it
-cannot replace the shared response protocol or deterministic safety boundary.
-
-## Alternatives considered
-
-- Return durable application IDs. Opaque IDs do not help semantic judgment,
-  expose application identity mechanics, and make model output reproduce data
-  that deterministic code already owns.
-- Return names alone or copied contextual selectors. Names can be ambiguous,
-  while reproducing labels and source ranges adds response complexity and
-  creates mismatches without adding semantic information. Request-local
-  handles preserve exact selection without either failure mode.
-- Ask the model to return synthesized canonical replacement records. This
-  would transfer typed artifact construction, provenance consolidation, and
-  durable identity policy to a probabilistic boundary.
-- Reconcile reflection-discovered fields or arbitrary JSON. This would weaken
-  the typed artifact contract and move domain semantics into generic code.
-- Hide reconciliation inside extraction or another stage. This would obscure
-  stage ownership and create cross-stage behavior outside the fixed pipeline;
-  reconciliation remains explicit normalize-stage behavior.
-- Let each domain replace the complete prompt protocol. This would duplicate
-  safety mechanics and allow domain policy to bypass the common response and
-  validation contract.
-
-## Consequences
-
-Model responses become smaller and easier to validate, while deterministic
-application code retains authority over identity, provenance, ordering, and
-typed artifact construction. The framework requires a request-local mapping,
-bounded context preparation, a private integer response contract, proposal
-assessment, and shared prompt assets. Each consuming artifact family still
-requires a typed adapter for its irreducibly domain-specific rules.
-
-Request-local handles are deliberately unsuitable for persistence, logging as
-entity identity, checkpoint contracts, or cross-request correlation. Changes
-to shared protocol and policy assets must participate in the normal prompt,
-schema, and checkpoint fingerprint mechanisms.
-
-Acceptance of this decision does not imply that the shared mechanism or its
-consumer migrations are implemented. The
-[feature roadmap](../roadmap/semantic-reconciliation.md) owns target behavior
-and status, and the
-[implementation plan](../roadmap/implementation.md) owns delivery sequence
-until the work is complete.

-# D&D Enemy-Event Artifact
-
-This contract defines the durable, source-grounded enemy-event occurrence list.
-It records enemies directly established as opposing the party and explicitly
-observed combat outcomes. It is an ordered observation artifact from which a
-consumer may derive a ledger; it is not a ledger, encounter roster, or terminal
-state model.
-
-## Identity and compatibility
-
-| Property | Value |
-| --- | --- |
-| Artifact kind | `dnd/enemy-event-list` |
-| Schema ID | `notarius.dnd.enemy_events` |
-| Schema name | `notarius_dnd_enemy_events_v1` |
-| Schema version | `v1` |
-| Media type | `application/json` |
-
-`v1` is a strict JSON object with required `events`; the array may be empty.
-Event and source-reference objects reject unknown fields. An incompatible shape
-change requires a new schema version.
-
-## Wire shape
-
-Every event has these required fields:
-
-| Field | Contract |
-| --- | --- |
-| `name` | Non-empty display name or directly grounded collective subject label. |
-| `kind` | `engaged`, `killed`, `fled`, `captured`, or `incapacitated`. |
-| `source_refs` | One or more current-transcript evidence ranges. |
-
-Each source reference has exactly `source_id`, `start_unit_id`, and
-`end_unit_id`. It identifies an inclusive current-transcript range; unit IDs
-are positive and the start may not follow the end.

-      ]
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-## Event semantics and evidence
-
-| Kind | Required evidence |
-| --- | --- |
-| `engaged` | The subject is directly established as actively opposing the party in combat. At most one engagement is emitted for one subject in one combat scene. |
-| `killed` | The transcript explicitly establishes that the subject died or was killed. Damage, defeat, disappearance, or combat ending is insufficient. |
-| `fled` | The subject explicitly escapes, retreats, or otherwise leaves combat to avoid continued engagement. Movement or absence from later turns is insufficient. |
-| `captured` | The subject is explicitly taken prisoner or secured under the party's control. A grapple or temporary restraint alone is insufficient. |
-| `incapacitated` | The subject is explicitly rendered unable to continue acting without being established as killed or captured. A missed turn is insufficient. |
-
-The current transcript is the only event evidence. Campaign context and
-normalized NPC, scene-description, combat-turn, and NPC-occurrence artifacts
-can ground names or control combat eligibility, but none may supply event
-evidence. An outcome may share evidence with an engagement, in which case both
-events are retained.
-
-Extraction is limited to chunks with an exact combat-scene classification. An
-exact non-combat classification produces an accepted empty list. Missing or
-mismatched classification also produces an accepted empty list and a
-`scene_classification_unavailable` warning.
-
-## Subjects, normalization, and order
-
-A subject matching the normalized NPC registry uses that registry's canonical
-display name. Unmatched hostile creatures, summoned entities, and directly
-grounded groups remain valid subjects. An unnamed homogeneous group uses the
-narrowest transcript-grounded label, such as `Orcs`, `One orc`, or `Remaining
-orcs`; the artifact never invents synthetic member identities or quantities.
-Party members, allies, neutral observers, mentioned-but-absent enemies, hazards,
-traps, and environmental effects are excluded.
-
-Normalization collapses surrounding and repeated internal whitespace in subject
-display values, canonicalizes recognized registry names, canonicalizes and
-deduplicates exact source ranges, then orders events by valid evidence
-chronology, normalized subject identity, display name, kind, and reference
-sequence. The deterministic kind tie order is `engaged`,
-`incapacitated`, `captured`, `fled`, then `killed`. Only entries with the same
-normalized name, kind, and complete canonical evidence sequence are collapsed.
-Different kinds, evidence, repeated engagement in separate scenes, and later
-outcomes remain separate. A later engagement for the same named subject is
-preserved after an earlier outcome because the artifact does not assert an
-irreversible state transition.
-
-## Non-goals
-
-The artifact has no NPC or scene ID, quantity, confidence, description,
-rationale, summary, current state, or inferred terminal outcome. It does not
-emit `active` or `unresolved`; consumers may derive an unresolved ledger view
-only when an engagement has no later explicit outcome. It never infers an
-outcome from turn absence, scene termination, initiative order, hit-point
-guesses, or other artifacts.
-
-The [JSON output contract](json-output.md) defines publication. Configuration
-keys, required generated-reference slots, and validator-chain selection are
-defined in the [configuration reference](../config.md). Implementation and
-prompt-grounding mechanics are described in the
-[D&D module internals](../internal/dnd.md).

+
+## Holder rules and minimal extraction
+
+`discovered` has neither holder; `acquired` requires `to` and forbids `from`;
+`lost` and `consumed` require `from` and forbid `to`; `transferred` requires

+`party` for either holder and its two normalized holders must differ.
+
+Only an evidenced discovery or possession change belongs in this artifact.
+It does not infer quantities or holders, convert currency denominations,
+calculate balances, or merge nearby events. Campaign references may
+disambiguate names but are never event evidence. Currency uses the ordinary
+`name` field and an explicit `quantity` only when the transcript establishes
+one; each denomination remains a separate event.
+
+Normalization trims display whitespace, orders and removes exact duplicate
+source references, then orders events by valid source chronology, name identity

-`v1` accepts one strict JSON object with required `occurrences`; the array may

-An incompatible shape change requires a new schema version.
-
-## Registry grounding
-
-Both extraction and normalization require an `item_registry` reference bound to
-an earlier normalized `dnd/item-registry` artifact. The registry is immutable
-for an operation and contributes names-only grounding after the shared evidence
-message. Notarius resolves the model's selected name into the unchanged exact
-durable ID/name pair. It is never occurrence evidence.
-
-Each occurrence must use one exact registry ID/name pair. An extraction response
-with an unknown or ambiguous selected name is rejected as invalid model output;
-the configured pipeline may retry it and never accepts a partial artifact.
-Normalization and validation remain defense in depth for artifacts entering
-through other boundaries: normalization canonicalizes a recognized name by ID,
-preserves unknown values for the registry validator, and the registry validator
-rejects unknown or mismatched pairs.

-## Wire shape

-Each source reference has exactly `source_id`, `start_unit_id`, and
-`end_unit_id`. It identifies an inclusive range in the current transcript;
-unit IDs are positive and the start may not follow the end.

-```json

-The five kinds remain `discovered`, `acquired`, `lost`, `consumed`, and

-are unchanged: discovered has no holder; acquired requires `to`; lost and

-| `name` | Non-empty transcript-established item type or unique designation. |
-| `source_refs` | One or more transcript evidence ranges that establish the item. |
-
-A source reference has exactly `source_id`, `start_unit_id`, and `end_unit_id`.
-The source ID identifies the transcript, unit IDs are positive inclusive unit
-identifiers, and the start may not follow the end.

-      ]
-    }

-```
-
-The ID is deterministic for an item name or type, rather than for one physical
-instance. Notarius normalizes the display name for comparison with Unicode
-NFKC, supported apostrophe normalization, collapsed whitespace, and case
-folding. It hashes compact JSON for this array:
-
-```text
-["dnd.item_registry.identity.v1", comparison_name]
-```
-
-The canonical ID is the lowercase SHA-256 digest of those bytes with the
-`item:sha256:` prefix. Equal comparison names represent one item identity;
-normalization unions their transcript evidence when it safely consolidates a
-candidate group.
-
-## Scope, reconciliation, and evidence
-
-The registry includes named unique items, concrete reusable item types, stable
-unique designations, and separately established currency denominations. It
-excludes vague loot or treasure, generic weapons, quantities, inferred
-properties, and inferred uniqueness. Capitalization alone does not establish
-eligibility.
-
-Normalization first applies deterministic display, evidence, and ID rules. It
-then may use a bounded LLM-assisted proposal to reconcile semantically duplicate
-records. The proposal may choose only a supplied candidate display name;
-invalid, uncertain, overlapping, or unsafe proposals retain the deterministic
-result with retry or fallback diagnostics. A proposal that mixes a recognized
-currency denomination with a non-currency item, or combines recognized
-denominations, is unsafe and retains every deterministic record. Currency
-denominations, materially different item types, and merely nearby objects
-remain distinct. Source references establish registry provenance, not evidence
-for later artifacts.
-
-## Consumers and publication
-
-`dnd/item-occurrences` requires one approved item registry through its
-`item_registry` reference slot for both extraction and normalization. Its
-consumer receives names-only grounding; Notarius resolves the selected name
-into the unchanged exact durable ID/name pair. The registry’s source references
-are never occurrence evidence. Unknown or ambiguous selections are rejected by

-```
-
-## Occurrence categories
-
-| Kind | Meaning |
-| --- | --- |
-| `visited` | The transcript establishes physical party presence, including arrival, continuing presence, or departure. |
-| `planned` | The party explicitly proposes, intends, or agrees to future travel; speculation alone is not enough. |
-| `recalled` | The transcript explicitly recounts prior party presence before the current live events. |
-| `mentioned` | The location is explicit but no stronger category applies, including lore, directions, third-party activity, non-actionable speculation, a mere hypothetical reference, or out-of-character discussion. |
-
-For overlapping evidence, precedence is `visited`, then `planned`, then
-`recalled`, then `mentioned`. For example, “What if we went to Moon Gate?” is
-eligible as `mentioned` when its narrow evidence explicitly references that
-registry location, but it is not `planned` without an actual proposal,
-intention, or agreement to travel. Inferred, unstated, uncertain, and
-unsupported places or occurrences are omitted. Normalization
-canonicalizes the registry name, orders and deduplicates source references, and
-orders occurrences by source chronology, location ID, name, kind, and reference
-sequence. It collapses only exact duplicates with the same ID, kind, and
-complete canonical evidence sequence.
-
-## Required grounding and evidence
-
-Both extraction and normalization require exactly one `location_registry` reference of
-kind `dnd/location-registry`, media type `application/json`, and at most 1 MiB. The
-registry provides identity grounding only. The model selects a supplied
-contextual name-and-registry-reference descriptor, and Notarius resolves it
-into the exact durable ID/name pair. Unknown, partial, or ambiguous selections
-are rejected rather than guessed or reassigned. The current transcript is the
-only evidence source for an occurrence; registry evidence and provenance never
-become occurrence evidence.

-and generated-handoff compatibility, [D&D module internals](../internal/dnd.md)

-
-Notarius pins

-as its in-process prompt engine. The upstream
-[Go package consumer guide](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.5.0/docs/consumers/pkg-promptkit.md)
-owns the public engine API, and the upstream
-[format reference](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.5.0/docs/formats.md)
-owns prompt, profile, and schema file contracts.
-
-## Supported Boundary
-
-Notarius relies on the root `promptkit` package to:
-
-- construct an `Engine` with filesystem-backed prompt, schema, and optional
-  operator and application-fallback profile sources;
-- prepare one frozen execution from a `RunRequest` with named inline artifacts,
-  variables, a direct session ID, prompt identity, and profile selection, then
-  record credential-redacted details and run that exact execution;
-- return rendered debug material, validated structured output, selected
-  profile, backend, effective model metadata, and token usage;
-- register the optional conventional `local` backend through `BackendLocal`,
-  `LocalBackend`, and `WithBackend`;
-- distinguish structured-output validation failure from execution failure; and
-- identify a missing explicit profile through `ErrProfileNotFound` and backend
-  admission exhaustion through `ErrCapacityExceeded`.
-
-The pinned
-[`BackendLocal`, `LocalBackend`, and `WithBackend` API](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.5.0/backends.go)
-owns the registration and backend-capacity contract.
-
-For one completion, the adapter calls `PrepareExecution`, takes a
-caller-owned `Details` snapshot, and calls `RunPrepared` for that same opaque
-prepared execution. It defers `Discard` for every unexecuted handle. Explicit
-profile preflight uses `Engine.InspectProfile`; it does not prepare a synthetic
-prompt. PromptKit's prepared handle, inspection result, and capacity-error
-types stay inside the Notarius LLM adapter.
-
-When a PromptKit profile and runtime override leave `temperature`, `max_tokens`,
-or `top_p` unset, Notarius leaves that control unset as well. Compatible
-providers therefore apply their own defaults; an operator that requires a
-specific sampling value must select it explicitly in the profile or runtime
-override.
-
-Notarius does not use PromptKit's optional `ArtifactReader`. It materializes
-source and reference content itself and supplies owned inline artifacts at the
-adapter boundary. It also retains responsibility for pipeline retries,
-scheduling, debug persistence, redaction, profile provenance, and conversion
-from private model responses into durable domain artifacts.
-
-Notarius sends one stable effective session through PromptKit's direct session
-field, which is authoritative for provider session behavior. It also retains
-the same value as the `session_id` prompt variable for maintained prompt
-compatibility. The generated identifier is 76 ASCII characters, within
-PromptKit v0.5.0's 256-code-point session limit. Session IDs are non-secret
-correlation identifiers and may be exposed to providers and provider
-observability. The CLI contract owns generation and override behavior.
-
-Notarius records PromptKit's selected backend ID and effective reasoning
-setting as optional run-manifest provenance. Endpoint-only profiles have no
-backend ID. Debug prompt material also retains the selected backend ID and
-PromptKit's stable lower-case `effective_model_params` JSON, which may include
-`backend_id`. Notarius production configuration exposes one optional
-conventional `local` registration. It does not expose a general user-defined
-PromptKit backend registry. Endpoint-only profiles remain supported unchanged.
-
-Notarius retains its application-wide scheduled client around the PromptKit
-adapter. PromptKit may apply a narrower limit for the selected backend;
-endpoint-only profiles have no such backend limit. The adapter translates
-PromptKit capacity rejection into the provider-neutral Notarius
-`ErrLLMCapacityExceeded` contract. It may include the normalized selected
-backend ID in safe diagnostic context, without exposing PromptKit's capacity
-error type, and leaves retries to the calling pipeline stage.
-
-## Profile Sources And Compatibility
-
-Notarius gives PromptKit the configured operator profile source, registered
-application fallback profile assets, and optional backend registration through
-the same construction path for inspection and execution. PromptKit owns the
-resulting source precedence and strict profile parsing: a matching operator
-profile is a complete replacement for a fallback or built-in profile, while an
-invalid matching document fails instead of falling through. The operator
-configuration and deployment workflow are defined in
-[Configuration](../config.md#promptkit-profiles) and
-[Operations](../operations.md#promptkit-profile-deployment).
-
-Notarius supports this boundary against PromptKit v0.5.0. Its fallback source,
-prepared-execution, inspection, and typed capacity APIs are used as public
-upstream contracts; other PromptKit APIs or file-format behavior are not
-implicitly supported. A dependency upgrade requires reviewing the adapter,
-profile-source construction, and this compatibility statement against the
-pinned upstream documentation.
-
-## Notarius Ownership
-
-[LLM Runtime Internals](../internal/llm.md) describes how Notarius mounts
-module assets, maps its transport-neutral completion contract, prepares and
-executes requests, validates output, records provenance, captures debug
-material, redacts errors, and preserves timeout ownership.
-[D&D Module Internals](../internal/dnd.md) owns the embedded
-`dnd-extraction` fallback profile and the maintained D&D prompt defaults.
-[Configuration](../config.md#promptkit-profiles) defines how a Notarius
-configuration selects one PromptKit profile source and optionally registers
-the conventional local backend.
-
-PromptKit API or format changes outside this boundary are not implicitly
-supported. Updating the pinned version requires reviewing the adapter and

-An exceeded bound also skips the call and preserves the deterministic

+| Item events | Uses campaign context for disambiguation but has no NPC-registry or scene-description dependency. |

-| Enemy events | Requires NPC, scene-description, combat-turn, and NPC-occurrence artifacts. It calls the LLM only for an exact `combat` classification, records ordered observations rather than terminal state, and normalizes recognized names through the NPC registry while preserving grounded collective labels. |

-Client construction may also receive a run-wide reasoning-effort override from

-states. With neither flag, profile behavior remains unchanged. Because
-production constructs one shared client, the selected state applies uniformly
-to module calls, retries, and LLM-backed validators for the whole run.
-
-An empty request profile lets the prompt select its configured default. Before a
-run begins, the CLI asks the adapter to inspect every explicit profile on the
-resolved selected LLM-backed bindings and validators, including inherited
-pipeline profiles. Inspection resolves the profile and its selected backend and
-target without loading a prompt, reading credentials, admitting capacity, or
-contacting a provider, so a missing or invalid explicit profile fails before
-stage execution while a valid `api_key_env` may remain unset. Calls record the
-profile actually selected by PromptKit. The recorder trims and deduplicates
-non-secret profile identity, provider, model, selected backend ID, and
-effective reasoning values for manifest use. Entries that differ in backend or
-reasoning remain distinct and deterministically ordered. Endpoint-only profiles
-retain an empty backend ID, which the published JSON omits. Successful
-completion responses and recorded profile manifests identify the adapter
-provider as `promptkit`.
-
-The CLI's profile-inspection engine and the production adapter use the same
-profile-source construction to apply the configured profile directory or file,
-the optional registered fallback profile assets, and the optional conventional
-`local` backend. Preflight therefore resolves the same profile sources and
-backend membership as runtime without performing generation. Fallback assets
-are mounted only when at least one source is registered. The production D&D
-registrar contributes its `dnd-extraction` fallback, and the maintained D&D
-prompts select that logical ID by default. PromptKit owns source precedence and
-profile parsing: an operator-provided matching profile takes precedence over a
-fallback profile without Notarius merging either document.
-When the registration is absent, a profile selecting `backend: local` fails
-inspection instead of falling back to a built-in or endpoint-only target.
-
-Before execution, the adapter also contributes a non-secret checkpoint
-fingerprint for the effective PromptKit profile source. It combines the
-identity of PromptKit's compiled-in profile catalog with a deterministic digest
-of every YAML profile in the configured profile directory, or of the configured
-profile file, and a deterministic digest of the flattened fallback profile
-assets. The fingerprint contains neither profile content nor source paths. It
-covers inherited pipeline profiles, explicit binding profiles, and
-prompt-selected defaults, so changing a model or other profile setting cannot
-reuse checkpoints created under the
-prior profile source. This cache identity is independent of durable
-profile provenance: run manifests continue to list only profiles actually
-observed during LLM calls. When the local backend is registered, a second
-fingerprint hashes its trimmed endpoint behind a stable marker. Changing that

-## Semantic Reconciliation
-
-`internal/framework/semanticreconcile` is a domain-neutral strategy used by a
-typed normalize module; it is not itself a selectable stage module. A
-source-backed artifact-family normalizer projects its deterministic records
-into contextual candidates and owned typed record envelopes, supplies its
-chosen prompt identity and resolved LLM profile, and constructs an engine with
-explicit limits. The core filters invalid evidence, assigns contiguous
-request-local integer handles, renders bounded candidate and transcript
-materials, invokes the structured-completion boundary, and assesses the
-returned duplicate groups into a stable non-overlapping plan.
-
-The normalizer then applies that plan through a typed `ApplicationPolicy`. The
-core preserves ungrouped records, contribution order, and provenance while the
-artifact family owns group guards, field and evidence consolidation, durable
-ID derivation, retry and fallback presentation, warnings, and postconditions.
-Request-local handles do not enter the typed value or durable artifact. Fewer
-than two eligible candidates skips model invocation; exceeding a candidate or
-combined-material bound preserves the deterministic result under the family's
-fallback policy. Provider, transport, cancellation, and context-construction
-failures remain execution errors.
-
-The core supplies a conservative generic prompt and the single private
-response schema. A domain prompt may substitute its semantic instructions but
-mounts the core-owned protocol and candidate/transcript presentation assets.
-Prompt, schema, policy, and limit identities participate in manifest metadata
-and checkpoint fingerprints. The generic registrar owns production
-registration of those shared assets; a consuming domain registrar owns only
-its domain prompt.

+# Published Evidence Context
+
+## Status
+
+Implemented.
+
+## Purpose
+
+Let downstream consumers build narrative reports from normalized artifacts
+without separately parsing the original transcript or resolving source-unit
+references themselves.
+
+The production JSON output optionally publishes one deterministic, deduplicated
+evidence-context artifact containing the transcript units relevant to explicitly
+selected normalized lanes. Existing lane payloads remain the canonical semantic
+results and retain their precise source references.
+
+## Desired End State
+
+When evidence-context publication is enabled, a consumer can:
+
+1. discover one versioned evidence-context document through `index.json`;
+2. obtain the union of source units needed to understand evidence cited by the
+   selected normalized lanes;
+3. distinguish each artifact's direct evidence references from surrounding
+   units included only for narrative context;
+4. retain speaker, timestamp, and other accepted source-unit metadata needed to
+   interpret the transcript; and
+5. produce a narrative report without receiving duplicated transcript text in
+   every lane payload.
+
+This is deterministic output projection. It does not invoke an LLM, change
+normalization, or make surrounding context part of an artifact's evidence.
+
+## Configuration Policy
+
+Evidence publication is configured on the production JSON output module. The
+intended configuration shape is:
+
+```yaml
+output:
+  module: json
+  options:
+    evidence_context:
+      enabled: true
+      window_units: 3
+      lanes:
+        - combat-turns
+        - item-events
+        - npc-interactions
+        - npcs
+        - spells
+```
+
+- Omitting `evidence_context` disables publication. When the object is present,
+  `enabled` is required.
+- `enabled: false` accepts no `lanes` or `window_units` fields, preventing
+  silently ignored configuration.
+- `lanes` is a required, non-empty allowlist of configured final lane IDs when
+  evidence publication is enabled. Values are trimmed, unique, and normalized
+  to lexical order.
+- `window_units` is a non-negative integer and defaults to `3`. Zero publishes
+  only directly referenced units.
+- Unknown lanes, duplicate lane IDs, and selected lanes whose artifact kind
+  cannot expose source evidence fail configuration resolution or pipeline
+  preparation.
+- A selected lane that completes without a normalized output contributes no
+  evidence and does not make an otherwise successful run fail.
+- Invocation-level lane filtering does not invalidate the configured allowlist.
+  Allowlisted lanes excluded from the effective run contribute nothing, while
+  the evidence document still records the configured allowlist.
+
+The allowlist is intentional safety and stability policy. Scene descriptions
+and other broad-range lanes are excluded unless named expressly. Adding a new
+pipeline lane never silently increases output size or publishes more transcript
+content.
+
+## Evidence Collection Boundary
+
+Evidence collection applies to accepted final normalized artifacts from the
+selected lanes. It must not inspect arbitrary serialized JSON for fields named
+`source_ref` or `source_refs`, and the generic JSON output module must not
+depend on D&D artifact types.
+
+Artifact-kind registrations expose their source references through an explicit
+typed projection contract. The framework uses that contract to assemble a
+domain-neutral evidence request containing:
+
+- the accepted generic source document;
+- the selected lane and artifact identities; and
+- defensive copies of their direct source references.
+
+The output stage owns publication of the resulting logical artifact. Generic
+framework code owns range validation, position-based expansion, and union
+logic. Domain-specific adapters own only the extraction of evidence references
+from their typed artifacts.
+
+Both plural-reference artifacts and singular-reference artifacts, such as
+scene descriptions, can participate through the same projection contract.
+They do so only when their configured lane is allowlisted.
+
+## Range Expansion And Deduplication
+
+For every valid direct source reference:
+
+1. resolve its endpoints through source-document positions, not numeric
+   unit-ID arithmetic;
+2. expand the range by `window_units` positions on each side;
+3. clip the expanded range at document boundaries; and
+4. union overlapping or contiguous expanded ranges.
+
+Published contexts and units remain in source-document order. Each source unit
+appears at most once in a merged context. Original direct references remain
+unchanged and are associated with their contributing lane IDs so consumers can
+tell why a context was included.
+
+The projector must not silently omit or repair an invalid reference that
+reaches this boundary. Such a value violates the accepted normalized-artifact
+contract and causes output projection to fail with a content-safe error.
+
+No implicit coverage limit truncates selected evidence. If the allowlisted
+lanes collectively cite most or all of a transcript, the evidence document may
+contain most or all of it. The explicit lane allowlist is the control that
+prevents a broad lane such as scene descriptions from doing so accidentally.
+
+## Durable Evidence Artifact
+
+The JSON bundle gains one optional, non-lane artifact with these durable
+identities:
+
+| Property | Value |
+| --- | --- |
+| Logical file | `evidence-context.json` |
+| Index descriptor | `evidence_context` |
+| Artifact kind | `source/evidence-context` |
+| Media type | `application/json` |
+| Schema ID | `notarius.source.evidence_context` |
+| Schema name | `notarius_source_evidence_context_v1` |
+| Schema version | `v1` |
+
+The descriptor in `index.json` carries the artifact and schema identities,
+analogous to the existing chunk-map descriptor. The artifact is present
+whenever evidence publication is enabled, including when its context collection
+is empty.
+
+The document contains:
+
+- the source document ID and semantic digest;
+- the effective window size;
+- the sorted configured lane allowlist;
+- an ordered context collection;
+- each context's expanded start and end unit IDs;
+- the original direct references and contributing lane IDs covered by that
+  context; and
+- the ordered accepted source units, including unit ID, kind, text,
+  self-reference, and metadata.
+
+Expanded context bounds are navigation aids, not citations. The original
+references embedded in each context remain the authoritative direct evidence.
+The evidence artifact is discovered separately from lane payloads and does not
+increase the normalized-lane count reported by the runner or subprocess
+receipt.
+
+## Failure And Publication Semantics
+
+- Evidence projection occurs only after selected normalized outputs are known
+  and before the output encoder returns its logical files.
+- Projection or encoding failure is an output-stage framework error; the CLI
+  does not publish a partially assembled output bundle.
+- Rejected or absent lane outputs contribute nothing. Their attempted values
+  and source references must not be published through this artifact.
+- Context generation is deterministic for the same source document, selected
+  normalized outputs, lane allowlist, and window size.
+- Existing output, checkpoint, warning, rejection, debug, and subprocess
+  success semantics remain unchanged.
+
+## Sensitivity And Size
+
+Unlike the current chunk map, the evidence artifact contains transcript text
+and source-unit metadata. Enabling it therefore creates additional durable
+sensitive data and may materially increase bundle size.
+
+The implemented configuration, operations, integration, and consumer documents
+state that:
+
+- evidence publication is opt-in;
+- output permissions and retention must be appropriate for source content;
+- selecting broad or numerous lanes can publish most of the transcript; and
+- the artifact must not contain raw input bytes, LLM prompts or responses,
+  auxiliary reference content, credentials, debug-only data, or filesystem
+  paths.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- Evidence publication is disabled by default and leaves existing bundles
+  unchanged.
+- Enabling it requires an explicit non-empty lane allowlist.
+- References from all selected successful lanes contribute to one deduplicated
+  document.
+- Non-monotonic unit IDs are expanded and ordered correctly by document
+  position.
+- Overlapping windows share one ordered copy of each included source unit.
+- Direct references remain distinguishable from added context.
+- Scene descriptions cannot contribute unless their lane is explicitly
+  allowlisted.
+- Invalid selected lanes and unsupported artifact kinds fail before execution;
+  invalid accepted references fail output projection rather than being ignored.
+- Empty selected-lane results produce a valid empty evidence artifact.
+- Existing D&D lane schemas, normalized-output counts, and source-reference
+  semantics do not change.
+- Generic framework and output packages do not depend on D&D types or parse
+  artifact JSON heuristically.
+- The published contract and operational documentation clearly describe source
+  sensitivity, discovery, compatibility, and retention.
+
+## Out Of Scope
+
+- Embedding transcript units directly into each D&D record or lane payload.
+- Replacing precise source references with expanded context ranges.
+- Automatically including every configured lane.
+- An explicit full-transcript publication mode.
+- LLM summarization, retrieval, ranking, or narrative generation.
+- Per-record window sizes or lane-specific window sizes.
+- CLI overrides for evidence configuration.
+- Reading rejected attempts, debug artifacts, auxiliary references, or prior
+  output bundles as evidence sources.

+# Published Evidence Context Implementation Plan
+
+## Status
+
+Completed.
+
+## Objective
+
+Implement the accepted [Published Evidence Context](evidence.md) roadmap as an
+optional, deterministic extension of the production JSON output. The completed
+work must publish one deduplicated source-context artifact for an explicit set
+of successful normalized lanes while leaving existing lane payloads,
+normalization, checkpointing, subprocess results, and disabled output bundles
+unchanged.
+
+Complete the stages below in order. Each stage must leave its affected packages
+passing before the next begins. Do not implement per-record hydration, implicit
+all-lane collection, a full-transcript mode, LLM processing, or any other
+roadmap item marked out of scope.
+
+## Decisions And Invariants
+
+- Evidence publication is output policy. Normalizers continue to return
+  semantic artifacts with precise source references and do not receive
+  hydration responsibilities.
+- The framework operates on the accepted generic `source.SourceDocument` and
+  typed artifact projections. It must not inspect serialized JSON for
+  `source_ref` or `source_refs`, and generic packages must not depend on D&D
+  types.
+- The selected lane allowlist is explicit, non-empty, and globally addressed by
+  resolved lane ID. Pipeline resolution already guarantees lane IDs are unique
+  across ordered steps.
+- The framework decodes accepted serialized normalize outputs through their
+  registered artifact codecs before invoking typed evidence projectors. This
+  supports both fresh and checkpoint-reused normalize outputs without retaining
+  a second typed result channel.
+- Expansion uses source-document positions. Numeric unit IDs are identities,
+  not sequence numbers.
+- Direct source references are never widened or rewritten. Expanded ranges are
+  context bounds only.
+- Rejected, failed, and absent normalized lane outputs contribute no evidence.
+- Evidence output is sensitive durable source content, not cache or debug
+  state. It contains accepted source units only and never raw input bytes,
+  prompts, model responses, auxiliary references, paths, or credentials.
+- The optional `evidence_context` index field is an additive v1 JSON-bundle
+  change. Existing D&D artifact schemas and the subprocess receipt do not
+  change.
+
+## Stage 1: Add Typed Evidence Capability And Resolve Output Policy
+
+Add a dedicated artifact-evidence registry under the pipeline framework:
+
+- `pipeline.ArtifactEvidenceRegistry` stores one typed projector per artifact
+  kind.
+- `pipeline.ArtifactEvidenceProjector[T]` is
+  `func(T) []source.SourceRef`.
+- `pipeline.RegisterArtifactEvidence[T](registry, kind, projector)` accepts a
+  non-empty kind and non-nil projector, records the exact Go type for `T`, and
+  rejects duplicate kinds.
+- The erased projection boundary checks the exact registered type, invokes the
+  projector, and returns a defensive copy of its references.
+- The registry exposes only the discovery and projection operations required by
+  resolution, preparation, and execution; do not expose its mutable entries.
+
+Add the registry to `pipeline.Registries` and `pipeline.ModuleCatalog`, including
+CLI catalog conversion, production construction, empty-set detection, and
+test registry helpers. A nil evidence registry remains valid when evidence
+publication is disabled. Production construction and the D&D registrar require
+and populate it.
+
+Define these framework-level output-policy contracts:
+
+```go
+type EvidenceContextPolicy struct {
+    Enabled     bool
+    WindowUnits int
+    LaneIDs     []string
+}
+
+type EvidenceContextPolicyProvider interface {
+    EvidenceContextPolicy() EvidenceContextPolicy
+}
+```
+
+Provider and prepared-pipeline boundaries defensively copy `LaneIDs`.
+
+Add an optional output-profile option-validation callback to
+`OutputEncoderRegistry`:
+
+```go
+type OutputProfileOptionContext struct {
+    LaneIDs []string
+}
+
+type OutputProfileOptionValidator func(
+    OutputProfileOptionContext,
+    map[string]any,
+) error
+```
+
+Add `RegisterBuilderWithProfileValidation(spec, validateOptions,
+validateProfile, builder)` and make existing output registration methods
+delegate to it with no profile callback. The registry passes defensive copies
+to validation. The callback receives the complete configured lane-ID set before
+invocation-level `--only` filtering. The production JSON output uses it only to
+prove that every configured evidence lane exists. Keep the extension generic:
+the pipeline supplies lane identities, while the output module interprets its
+own options. Build that lane set from the normalized legacy-or-steps profile
+before selection and reject duplicate configured lane IDs through the existing
+pipeline identity rules.
+
+Extend the production JSON output options with the nested
+`evidence_context` object:
+
+- omission disables the feature;
+- `enabled` is required when the object is present;
+- `enabled: false` permits no `lanes` or `window_units` fields;
+- `enabled: true` requires a non-empty `lanes` array;
+- lane values are strings, trimmed, non-empty, unique after trimming, and
+  normalized to lexical order;
+- `window_units` is an optional non-negative integer with default `3`; and
+- outer and nested unknown fields and incompatible YAML value types remain
+  strict configuration errors.
+
+The JSON encoder implements the policy provider from its decoded immutable
+options. Pipeline resolution invokes its profile validator against all
+configured steps, so an unknown evidence lane fails even when another lane is
+selected with `--only`.
+
+During `pipeline.Prepare`, after constructing the output encoder:
+
+1. obtain and defensively normalize an enabled policy;
+2. intersect its configured IDs with the effective prepared lanes, treating
+   allowlisted lanes removed by invocation-level filtering as inactive;
+3. require an artifact-evidence registration for each active lane kind;
+4. prove that its projector Go type exactly matches the active lane's registered
+   artifact codec type; and
+5. retain an immutable private evidence plan on `PreparedPipeline`.
+
+Duplicate or empty provider values, a missing evidence registry for an active
+lane, unsupported active artifact kinds, and type mismatches fail preparation
+with pipeline/output/lane context. A disabled or non-participating output
+encoder creates no evidence plan and preserves existing preparation behavior.
+The private plan retains both the full configured allowlist for publication and
+the active lane/projector intersection for execution.
+
+Register D&D evidence projectors for all six current artifact kinds. Each
+projector returns copies of the artifact's direct references in record order:
+spells, NPCs, combat turns, item events, NPC interactions, and the singular
+reference from each scene description. Scene descriptions gain capability but
+remain excluded unless their configured lane ID is allowlisted.
+
+Stage tests:
+
+- Registry tests cover nil, blank, duplicate, exact-type, defensive-copy, and
+  deterministic discovery behavior.
+- JSON option tests cover disabled, enabled/default-window, explicit zero
+  window, normalization, duplicates, unknown fields, and invalid types.
+- Preparation tests cover selected lanes across steps, unknown lanes,
+  unsupported kinds, projector/codec type mismatch, disabled behavior, and
+  defensive policy ownership.
+- Resolution/preparation tests prove a valid allowlist survives `--only`, an
+  excluded lane contributes no active projector, and a genuinely unknown
+  configured lane still fails profile resolution.
+- D&D registration tests prove every production D&D artifact kind has the
+  expected evidence capability without testing individual field loops
+  redundantly.
+- One table-driven D&D projector test supplies representative values for all
+  six artifact kinds and proves plural and singular references are copied
+  without aliasing or semantic rewriting.
+
+Stage completion:
+
+- `go test ./internal/framework/pipeline`
+- `go test ./internal/modules/generic/output/json`
+- `go test ./internal/modules/dnd/register`
+- `go test ./internal/cli`
+
+## Stage 2: Define And Build The Evidence-Context Artifact
+
+Add a domain-neutral `internal/framework/evidencecontext` package that owns the
+durable model, JSON Schema, strict codec, projection algorithm, and these exact
+identities:
+
+- artifact kind `source/evidence-context`;
+- media type `application/json`;
+- schema ID `notarius.source.evidence_context`;
+- schema name `notarius_source_evidence_context_v1`; and
+- schema version `v1`.
+
+Use these package-level model and build contracts:
+
+```go
+type Document struct {
+    SourceID      string
+    SourceDigest  string
+    WindowUnits   int
+    SelectedLanes []string
+    Contexts      []Context
+}
+
+type Context struct {
+    ContextRef  source.SourceRef
+    EvidenceRefs []EvidenceRef
+    Units       []source.SourceUnit
+}
+
+type EvidenceRef struct {
+    LaneID   string
+    SourceRef source.SourceRef
+}
+
+type LaneEvidence struct {
+    LaneID     string
+    SourceRefs []source.SourceRef
+}
+
+type BuildRequest struct {
+    Source        *source.SourceDocument
+    WindowUnits   int
+    SelectedLanes []string
+    LaneEvidence  []LaneEvidence
+}
+```
+
+Apply the JSON field names shown below. Provide `Build(BuildRequest)`,
+`Serialize(BuildRequest)`, and a `Codec` with the same identity/encode/decode
+responsibilities as the chunk-map codec.
+
+The v1 payload has this exact shape:
+
+```json
+{
+  "source_id": "session-alpha",
+  "source_digest": "sha256:0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000",

+  "selected_lanes": ["npcs"],

+    {
+      "context_ref": {

+        "end_unit_id": 13
+      },
+      "evidence_refs": [
+        {
+          "lane_id": "npcs",
+          "source_ref": {
+            "source_id": "session-alpha",
+            "start_unit_id": 13,
+            "end_unit_id": 13
+          }
+        }
+      ],
+      "units": [
+        {
+          "id": 13,
+          "kind": "transcript_segment",
+          "text": "The party meets Rowan.",
+          "ref": {
+            "source_id": "session-alpha",
+            "start_unit_id": 13,
+            "end_unit_id": 13
+          }
+        }
+      ]
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+All displayed fields are required. `selected_lanes`, `contexts`,
+`evidence_refs`, and `units` encode as arrays rather than `null`; `contexts`
+may be empty. Each unit uses the existing `source.SourceUnit` JSON shape with
+required `id`, `kind`, `text`, and `ref`, plus optional JSON-shaped `metadata`.
+Fixed objects reject unknown fields; metadata remains an arbitrary JSON object.
+
+The builder accepts the validated source document, selected lane IDs, effective
+window, and lane-attributed direct references, then:
+
+1. requires a non-negative window and a non-empty, trimmed, unique selected
+   lane set, then stores that set in lexical order;
+2. requires every `LaneEvidence.LaneID` to belong to the selected set;
+3. validates the source document, recomputes its semantic digest, and requires
+   it to equal `SourceDocument.Digest`;
+4. validates every direct reference against one `source.DocumentIndex`;
+5. deduplicates exact `(lane_id, source_ref)` contributions;
+6. resolves endpoints to document positions;
+7. expands each side without integer overflow and clips at document bounds;
+8. sorts by expanded document position with deterministic lane/reference
+   tie-breakers;
+9. merges overlapping or position-contiguous expanded intervals;
+10. unions and deterministically sorts each merged context's direct
+   contributions; and
+11. deep-clones the corresponding source units and JSON-shaped metadata.
+
+Contexts are disjoint and ordered by document position, so a source unit occurs
+at most once in the document. `context_ref` identifies the first and last
+included units; `evidence_refs` retains only original citations. An empty
+reference collection produces the same source identity, window, sorted
+allowlist, and an explicit empty contexts array.
+
+Projection failures identify only structural scope such as lane and reference
+position. They must not include source text, metadata values, raw serialized
+artifacts, or unrelated paths.
+
+The codec must validate its model before encoding, produce deterministic JSON,
+strictly decode the checked-in schema, and return independently owned values.
+The JSON output encoder remains responsible for pretty-printing the logical
+file with its standard trailing newline. Follow the existing chunk-map
+package's separation between model, builder, codec, schema asset, and contract
+tests where useful, without coupling the two artifact formats.
+
+Stage tests:
+
+- A table-driven builder suite covers zero and nonzero windows, boundary
+  clipping, non-monotonic unit IDs, separate gaps, overlapping and contiguous
+  windows, duplicate contributions, multiple lanes, stable ordering, empty
+  contexts, invalid selected/contributing lanes, source-digest mismatch, and
+  invalid references.
+- Ownership tests prove output mutation cannot affect the source document or
+  projector inputs, including nested metadata.
+- Codec tests cover round trip, required arrays, schema identity, malformed and
+  trailing JSON, unknown fixed fields, invalid ordering/ranges, mismatched
+  source identities, and independently owned decoded metadata.
+- Use structured assertions and a compact valid fixture; do not add a large
+  transcript golden file.
+
+Stage completion:
+
+- `go test ./internal/framework/evidencecontext`
+
+## Stage 3: Integrate Projection With Runner Output
+
+Extend `contracts.OutputRequest` with an optional
+`EvidenceContext *SerializedArtifact` field and clone it at every ownership
+handoff, following the existing chunk-map pointer pattern.
+
+After lane execution and final manifest population, but before invoking the
+output encoder, the runner must:
+
+1. skip all work when the prepared evidence plan is absent;
+2. index accepted `NormalizeOutputs` by their globally unique lane IDs and fail
+   on an internal duplicate rather than silently overwrite it;
+3. for each selected lane with an output, verify its source and artifact kind,
+   decode it through the prepared artifact codec registry, and invoke the
+   prepared typed projector;
+4. build and serialize the evidence document through the evidence-context
+   package; and
+5. pass a defensive serialized-artifact copy to the output encoder.
+
+Selected lanes without normalized output contribute nothing. Normalize
+rejections remain successful pipeline outcomes; evidence projection does not
+inspect rejected candidates. An invalid accepted reference, incompatible
+serialized artifact, projection type failure, or evidence serialization failure
+is an output-stage framework error before logical files are returned or
+physically published.
+
+At this external-content consumption boundary, do not propagate artifact-codec
+or metadata-cloning errors with `%w` when their text could contain artifact
+fields or source metadata. Return fixed, actionable categories scoped by lane
+and operation; detailed codec errors remain available to direct trusted
+callers and their focused tests.
+
+Add an allowlisted debug summary containing only evidence artifact identity,
+selected lanes, window, context count, unit count, and source digest. Do not
+duplicate transcript text or source-unit metadata into a new evidence-specific
+debug envelope. Existing normalized-output debug behavior remains unchanged.
+
+The output artifact is not a normalized lane, generated reference, checkpoint,
+or manifest normalized-output entry. It does not alter normalized-output,
+rejection, or warning counts. Resume continues to reuse normalized checkpoints;
+evidence is deterministically rebuilt during the always-executed output stage.
+
+Stage tests:
+
+- Runner tests use a real codec, evidence projector, and small capturing output
+  encoder to prove selected-lane union, absent/rejected lane omission, invalid
+  accepted-reference failure, output-request defensive ownership, and no work
+  when disabled.
+- Include one checkpoint-reused normalized-output case to prove evidence is
+  reconstructed identically without retaining typed normalize values.
+- Confirm projection failures prevent output encoding and return a failed
+  manifest without changing rejection semantics.
+
+Stage completion:
+
+- `go test ./internal/framework/pipeline`
+
+## Stage 4: Publish Through The JSON Bundle
+
+Teach the production JSON encoder to recognize the optional evidence-context
+artifact, verify its exact kind, media type, schema identity, schema digest, and
+payload validity through the evidence-context codec, and emit:
+
+- logical file `evidence-context.json`; and
+- optional `index.json` descriptor field `evidence_context`.
+
+The descriptor uses the same six fields as `chunk_map`:
+`artifact_kind`, `file`, `media_type`, `schema_id`, `schema_name`, and
+`schema_version`. Refactor the encoder's private descriptor representation only
+as needed to share that shape; do not change the existing `chunk_map` wire
+contract. Evidence output is ordered with the encoder's other fixed logical
+files, remains a non-lane artifact, and is present with an empty contexts array
+when enabled but no selected lane produces references.
+
+The JSON encoder's validation boundary returns a fixed content-safe evidence
+artifact error rather than propagating decoder or schema diagnostics that could
+echo transcript text or metadata. Direct evidence-context codec tests retain
+detailed structural errors.
+
+Update the maintained complete D&D configuration to enable evidence context
+with window `3` for `item-events`, `npcs`, `spells`, `combat-turns`, and
+`npc-interactions`. Deliberately omit `scene-descriptions`. Keep the minimal
+configuration disabled by omission.
+
+Stage tests:
+
+- JSON encoder tests own descriptor shape, exact logical filename, identity
+  checking, empty evidence publication, and disabled bundle stability.
+- One assembled production D&D test uses multiple selected lanes with
+  overlapping references and non-monotonic unit IDs, decodes the published
+  artifact through its production codec, and proves union/deduplication and
+  scene-description exclusion.
+- A second narrow case explicitly allowlists a scene-description lane to prove
+  capability is opt-in rather than hard-coded exclusion.
+- Existing index, chunk-map, lane, manifest, warning, and rejection tests remain
+  the owners of their current formats; do not repeat their full matrices.
+
+Stage completion:
+
+- `go test ./internal/modules/generic/output/json`
+- `go test ./internal/modules/dnd/...`
+- `go test ./internal/modules/integration`
+- `go test ./internal/cli`
+
+## Stage 5: Publish Current-Behavior Documentation
+
+After implementation and behavioral tests pass, update canonical documentation:
+
+- `docs/config.md` owns the nested JSON output options, defaults, strict
+  validation, required lane allowlist, and a small configuration snippet.
+- A new `docs/integrations/evidence-context.md` owns the complete v1 payload,
+  identities, direct-evidence versus context semantics, ordering,
+  compatibility, and a compact valid example.
+- `docs/integrations/json-output.md` owns the optional logical file and
+  `index.json` descriptor; link to the evidence contract rather than repeating
+  its payload.
+- `docs/operations.md` owns durable source-content sensitivity, permissions,
+  retention, and the possibility that selected lanes cover most of a
+  transcript.
+- `docs/consumers/subprocess.md` explains discovery through the optional index
+  descriptor and requires consumers to treat `evidence_refs`, not expanded
+  context bounds, as citations.
+- `docs/policy/architecture.md` records the generic typed evidence-projection
+  boundary and output ownership without adding D&D or wire-format detail.
+- `docs/internal/pipeline.md` and `docs/internal/modules.md` describe the typed
+  evidence registry, preparation checks, reconstruction from serialized
+  normalize outputs, and output-stage ownership without restating public wire
+  fields.
+
+Update only the smallest orientation links needed for discoverability. Do not
+add a CLI flag, configuration environment override, or duplicate the complete
+configuration outside `examples/`.
+
+After all current-behavior documentation is accurate:
+
+- set [the feature roadmap](evidence.md) status to `Implemented`;
+- set this plan's status to `Completed`; and
+- leave the integration and configuration documents, not either roadmap, as
+  the canonical implemented contract.
+
+Final verification:
+
+- `git diff --check`
+- `go test ./...`
+- `go vet ./...`
+- `go build ./cmd/notarius`
+- `go test -race ./internal/framework/evidencecontext ./internal/framework/pipeline ./internal/modules/generic/output/json ./internal/modules/dnd/... ./internal/modules/integration ./internal/cli`
+
+## Open Questions
+
+None. The plan fixes the configuration shape and defaults, typed projection
+boundary, preparation timing, durable schema and identities, range-union
+algorithm, failure semantics, JSON discovery, D&D coverage, documentation
+ownership, and test boundaries.

+# Subprocess Integration Contract
+
+## Status
+
+Implemented.
+
+## Purpose
+
+Make Notarius straightforward to invoke as a subprocess from an orchestrator
+such as Narratio. A caller should be able to run a configured pipeline, discover
+the published output bundle without parsing human prose or scanning a
+directory, and hand selected structured artifacts to a later stage.
+
+This work strengthens the public CLI boundary. It does not turn Notarius into a
+Go library, embed Narratio-specific behavior, or change pipeline execution and
+artifact semantics.
+
+## Desired End State
+
+A subprocess caller can:
+
+1. validate a Notarius configuration and selected pipeline before execution;
+2. invoke `notarius run` with explicit input, output-root, session, and
+   reference arguments;
+3. request one versioned, machine-readable success result on standard output;
+4. use that result to locate the published output bundle;
+5. discover normalized lane payloads through the bundle's authoritative
+   `index.json`;
+6. distinguish process failure from successful partial pipeline outcomes; and
+7. record Notarius run provenance in its own manifest without depending on
+   internal packages, cache formats, debug formats, or human-readable messages.
+
+The existing human-oriented command output remains the default for interactive
+use.
+
+## Machine-Readable Run Result
+
+`notarius run` supports `--json`. On success, the flag makes standard output
+contain exactly one JSON object followed by a newline. No human-oriented status
+line is mixed into that stream.
+
+The result uses the schema identity `notarius.run-result.v1` and contains:
+
+| Field | Presence | Meaning |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `schema_version` | Required | Exactly `notarius.run-result.v1`. |
+| `run_id` | Required | The Notarius run identifier. |
+| `pipeline_id` | Required | The effective pipeline identifier. |
+| `output_directory` | Required | Absolute path to the successfully published output bundle. |
+| `index_file` | Required for the production JSON output | Logical bundle path `index.json`. |
+| `normalized_output_count` | Required | Number of final normalized lane outputs returned by the pipeline. |
+| `rejected_output_count` | Required | Number of recorded rejected outputs. |
+| `warning_count` | Required | Number of final run warnings returned by the pipeline. |
+| `validation_status` | Required | The run manifest's final validation status without reinterpretation. |
+| `debug_directory` | Optional | Absolute debug-bundle path when debug capture was requested and completed. |
+
+An illustrative successful result is:
+
+```json
+{
+  "schema_version": "notarius.run-result.v1",
+  "run_id": "run-1770000000000000000-0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef",
+  "pipeline_id": "dnd-session",
+  "output_directory": "/srv/narratio/runs/session-7/notarius/run-1770000000000000000-0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef",
+  "index_file": "index.json",
+  "normalized_output_count": 6,
+  "rejected_output_count": 2,
+  "warning_count": 1,
+  "validation_status": "approved"
+}
+```
+
+The receipt is a discovery and summary document, not a duplicate output
+envelope. It does not embed lane payloads, rejection entries, warnings, the run
+manifest, or output-file contents. Consumers use `index_file` and the existing
+published JSON output contract for those records.
+
+The result contract must tolerate future additive optional fields. Any
+incompatible field or semantic change requires a new run-result schema version.
+
+## Stream, Publication, And Failure Semantics
+
+Machine-readable output is emitted only after:
+
+- the pipeline has completed without a framework error;
+- all logical output files have been successfully published;
+- requested debug terminal reporting has completed; and
+- all result fields are known.
+
+Writing or encoding the machine-readable result is part of successful command
+completion. Failure to write it produces the existing runtime-failure exit
+class.
+
+With `--json`:
+
+- successful stdout is exclusively the run-result JSON document;
+- successful warnings remain on stderr under the existing CLI contract;
+- syntax and runtime errors retain their existing exit statuses and stderr
+  diagnostics;
+- consumers treat stdout as a valid result only when the process exits with
+  status 0; failures before result writing emit no result, while a failure
+  during the stdout write may leave incomplete bytes that must be ignored; and
+- human-readable diagnostic wording is not promoted into a machine contract.
+
+Without `--json`, current interactive stdout and stderr behavior remains
+unchanged.
+
+Successful runs may contain rejected outputs or omit some normalized lanes.
+That remains a valid pipeline outcome. The run result reports counts, while
+`index.json`, `rejected.json`, and `warnings.json` remain authoritative for
+details. Notarius will not add a generic `--fail-on-rejection` policy as part
+of this work.
+
+## Output Discovery And Consumer Responsibilities
+
+The production JSON encoder's `index.json` remains the authoritative mapping
+from lane IDs to published payloads. A subprocess consumer should:
+
+- resolve `index_file` beneath `output_directory` and reject path escape;
+- locate expected outputs by `lane_id`, not by guessing filenames;
+- check each selected descriptor's media type and schema identity;
+- decode payloads according to their published integration contracts;
+- decide which lanes are required or optional for its own later stages; and
+- retain rejection, warning, and manifest files when they are needed for
+  provenance or review.
+
+For Narratio, required report inputs and partial-success policy remain Narratio
+stage configuration and orchestration concerns. Notarius does not acquire
+knowledge of Narratio stages, manifests, workspace layout, publication policy,
+or report formats.
+
+## Invocation Guidance
+
+The consumer documentation recommends that subprocess callers:
+
+- use `notarius config validate --pipeline` as an optional preflight;
+- pass explicit absolute paths for the input, configuration, output root, and
+  CLI-supplied references;
+- use a stable, non-secret prompt session identifier when useful for provider
+  routing or caching;
+- capture stdout and stderr separately;
+- supply credentials through the configured environment mechanism rather than
+  command arguments or generated configuration containing secret values;
+- place output, cache, debug, and subprocess logs under intentional
+  sensitivity and retention policies; and
+- treat the Notarius manifest and run-result receipt as provenance while
+  leaving the caller's own manifest authoritative for its stage lifecycle.
+
+Notarius configuration remains owned by Notarius. An orchestrator may select a
+configuration and pass supported operational overrides, but should not
+duplicate the complete Notarius configuration schema.
+
+## Documentation End State
+
+- `docs/cli.md` owns `run --json`, stream behavior, and exit semantics;
+- a new `docs/integrations/run-result.md` owns the versioned run-result wire
+  contract and compatibility policy;
+- `docs/integrations/json-output.md` remains the sole owner of output-bundle
+  discovery and lane publication;
+- a new `docs/consumers/subprocess.md` provides the task-oriented invocation and
+  consumption workflow; and
+- `docs/internal/cli.md` describes how the CLI constructs and emits the result
+  only after successful publication.
+
+Other documents should link to these owners instead of repeating volatile
+fields or command details.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- An ordinary successful `run` retains its existing human-readable output.
+- A successful `run --json` emits one valid `notarius.run-result.v1` document
+  and no human prose on stdout.
+- Relative configured or overridden output and debug roots are reported as
+  absolute bundle paths.
+- The receipt identifies the production JSON bundle entry point without
+  copying its lane descriptors or payloads.
+- Warning-bearing and rejection-bearing runs remain successful and report
+  accurate counts.
+- Syntax, configuration, provider, pipeline, publication, debug, and result
+  writing failures retain the correct nonzero exit class. Consumers are
+  explicitly required to ignore stdout from a nonzero invocation.
+- The implementation does not expose internal Go types or couple generic CLI
+  code to D&D or Narratio concepts.
+- Public and internal documentation assigns each new contract to one canonical
+  owner.
+- Offline behavioral tests protect the structured-output contract, default
+  human behavior, absolute path reporting, stream separation, and failure to
+  serialize or write the success result without duplicating lower-level output
+  encoder tests.
+
+## Out Of Scope
+
+The following may be useful later but are not prerequisites for the Narratio
+integration:
+
+- a result-file flag in addition to machine-readable stdout;
+- a JSON failure envelope or stable machine-readable error taxonomy;
+- caller-supplied Notarius run IDs or exact output-bundle paths;
+- a generic `--fail-on-rejection` or required-lane CLI policy;
+- a public Go client package or importable Narratio adapter;
+- Narratio stage, configuration, manifest, or report-generation changes;
+- `notarius version --json`;
+- installable or queryable artifact JSON Schemas;
+- signal-aware CLI contexts and graceful SIGINT or SIGTERM handling;
+- packaged release artifacts and a broader application-versioning policy.
+
+These items should be promoted only in response to a demonstrated integration
+need rather than bundled into the initial subprocess contract.
