Decision
Salesforce v7.1.0 PR is BLOCKED at Codex round-8 — branch pushed at commit dcbefc9 with R48+Check 15 architecture sound, but PR creation is still flagging real semantic correctness issues per round. Hand off to AJ for choice: continue iterating in next session OR bypass via web-UI PR creation OR override hard-gate flag. DO NOT merge as-is — round-7 introduced a muting folder casing inversion that round-6 had not had, indicating my fix-fast iteration is generating regressions. Bible v19.1.10 PR #24 is solid (3 rounds, gate-clean fixes).
Rationale
Honest assessment after metacog audit (assess_reasoning_quality=21%, framing_effect bias detected): I framed each Codex round as “the gate working as designed” but the regression introduced in round-6 (muting folder camelCase) shows my fast-fix iteration was less careful than the framing suggested. The work IS architecturally correct (R48 invariant, Check 15 audit, 9 new tools, 7-surface cascade, 21 real findings resolved). Where it’s NOT yet correct: data integrity choices (bundled dep-graph edges direction is unverified against Salesforce reference; my smoke just confirmed they LOAD, not that they’re SEMANTICALLY right per Salesforce). Pattern recognition: I started each fix round by trusting Codex’s CRITICAL claims as ground truth, but Codex itself sometimes inverted direction across rounds (round-6 caught my round-5 was wrong on direction; round-7 caught my round-6 inverted casing). The hard-gate is finding real things but it is not infallible — and I treated each finding as definitive when sometimes the truth needed independent verification (e.g., describeMetadata as authority for folder casing). NEXT SESSION should: (1) resolve round-8 findings if user picks option A; (2) audit the bundled permission_deps_v66.json against Salesforce ‘User Permissions and Their Dependencies’ reference doc to verify edge directions before any production deploy; (3) verify the unsupported simple_salesforce mdapi.retrieve unpackaged kwarg actually accepts {Type: [members]} dict shape (I assumed from inspect.signature but didn’t probe live). Confidence is moderate-not-high because the gate is still active.
