From c95044f84945928e00ae7f0898316b790e8498a5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Garry Tan Date: Sun, 7 Jun 2026 08:48:14 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] feat(decision): event-sourced decision-memory model (lib/gstack-decision) decide/supersede/redact events on lib/jsonl-store; active set is computed (no mutable status), dangling refs tolerated. Free-text is injection-checked and redact-scanned on write (HIGH secret -> reject). Scope filter (repo/branch/issue) for relevant resurfacing. File-only + reliable; gbrain not required.
