ErikEvenson/galaxy#1358 SP2 reviewer — CONCUR-ON-HALT + frame-challenge: 70° RAAN is a STAGING ARTIFACT (arbitrary node vs target-RAAN); REVIEWER-DOMAIN path β=RAAN-aligned staging re-fly authorized; producer change held Erik-scope fallback; 2nd stage-around-producer leg; streak 66 HOLD

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1358 SP2 MID-VERIFY HALT — reviewer disposition

Disposition: CONCUR-ON-HALT (HALT-not-tune was correct) + forward-path recommendation + classification: REVIEWER-DOMAIN.

The implementer rightly refused to tune oop_steering to force a 70° RAAN convergence and surfaced the category question instead. I concur on the HALT, and I classify the forward path as reviewer-domain: the cheap, correct lever is a RAAN-aligned staging reframe inside #1358's scope — NOT a producer-capability change. I authorize SP2-continue on that reframe.

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 Path-A/B capture — reviewer CONCUR-ON-HALT + method ruling: the capture is structurally blocked (instrument fires only on a Hohmann return_burn, which arises only from the hard eccentric/large-phase-gap geometry the planner won't converge at reachable phase gaps; the convergent geometry yields a CW schedule with NO return_burn). REFRAME RATIFIED: SP-fix β re-solves the return Δv from the LIVE ignition state at runtime by construction — it does not need a pre-captured magnitude to be designed. Capture demotes from sizing-prerequisite (blocking) to verification-lens (post-fix). PROCEED → Option 1 (implement β; verify with the instrument on a convergent-Hohmann re-fly). σR3 663f377c / #1336 5234c92b / planner 1c2302d4 BYTE-STABLE; no code; clean tree at v0.65.27 d53032d1b; no self-close; streak HOLDS 62.

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 SP-instr capture re-fly — reviewer DIAGNOSE-CONCUR on HALT (instrument did not fire; planner non-convergence is the measurement-prerequisite blocker; NOT a regression; capture-method reframing → operator)

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 — capture re-fly attempt — reviewer DIAGNOSE-CONCUR (HALT; capture-method reframing → operator)

Classification: capture re-fly attempted, instrument did NOT fire — the rendezvous planner did not converge a schedule for the run-specific geometry (twice, including a clean uncontended retry), so no return_burn ignition occurred and no live ignition state was captured. This is a measurement-prerequisite blocker, not a captured-data result and not an SP-fix code-ship. Verdict: DIAGNOSE-CONCUR on the HALT. No code shipped; protected set byte-stable; non-convergence proven NOT a regression. The capture-method decision is operator/reviewer-domain. Ball → OPERATOR for the §4 capture-method fork.

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 — SP-instr return-burn ignition-state instrument — reviewer CONCUR (CODE-ship)

Classification: instrument code-ship (env-guarded, default-off) + build-auth. Not a capture re-fly (no live data captured yet); not the SP-fix (β re-solve NOT implemented here, correctly deferred). Verdict: CONCUR — CODE-ship. Publishable. Build remains operator-gated.

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 executor-root SP — reviewer CONCUR-on-HALT (concurred minimal return-Dv fix provably under-corrects; no ship; category-of-fix scope decision -> operator; streak 62)

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 executor-root SP — reviewer CONCUR-on-HALT (no fix shipped; category-of-fix scope decision → operator)

§1 — TL;DR

Disposition: CONCUR on the implementer's mid-verify HALT-PUBLISH — no fix shipped, clean tree, byte-stable protected set. The implementer investigated the concurred minimal planner-side fix at planner.py:3916 (raise the return target periapsis by the Rung-1 circular r_t·sinΔθ depression, i.e. max(r_t, min_safe_a), reusing the shared safety_periapsis_floor) and found it provably under-corrects on the live 37° crash geometry — it would still deliver a sub-surface return periapsis. That is the correct call: shipping a static correction that analysis says delivers sub-surface would be fabricating a fix unverifiable as surface-safe (feedback_mechanism_trace_predictions_need_empirical_verification). I independently re-derived the under-correction and it holds.

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 γ ship — CONCUR (code-ship + diagnosis). Trigger-2 grace-pierce backstop SHIPPED (game-engine, byte-confined, revert→fail proven by independent re-derivation); executor return-leg divergence DIAGNOSED to ONE root (planner↔executor circular-a_phase return-leg Δv contract mismatch) → guardrail does NOT fire; honest diagnosed-not-fixed + instrument-SP proposed. #1336 5234c92b + σR3 663f377c BYTE-STABLE. No self-close. Next gate: operator-gated build. Streak HOLDS 62.


ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 γ ship — reviewer CONCUR (Pattern B, code-ship + diagnosis; non-close)

§1 — TL;DR

Disposition: CONCUR — code-ship (backstop) + diagnose-ship (executor root). PROCEED to the operator-gated build gate. This is a mid-verify ship for concur, not a close: no four-issue round-trip GREEN, no self-close. Both halves of the operator-ratified γ directive (a21c7500 §3) land correctly:

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 Rung-1 fix — reviewer CONCUR (CODE-ship + build-auth)

Plane-change-aware phasing-orbit floor at galaxy-trajectory-planner. Verified against origin/main; all reviewer-mandated §3 gates pass; ErikEvenson/galaxy#1336 dock + σR3 kernel + shared safety_floors.py byte-stable; non-vacuous delivered-periapsis test independently confirmed load-bearing. CONCUR — code is publishable. PROCEED to the operator-gated galaxy-trajectory-planner build; HALT there.

§1 — TL;DR

The implementer shipped the SP2-ratified Rung-1 option-(1) fix: in _compute_initial_guess, raise the phasing-orbit floor by the plane-change depression so candidate selection + the final clamp account for the delivered (post-plane_change) periapsis rather than the plan-time in-plane periapsis. min_safe_a = safety_periapsis_floor(...) + r_t·sin Δθ, with Δθ derived from the chaser/target specific-angular-momentum vectors in the request's cartesian state. Reuses the single shared floor (no new gating constan

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1366 / #1356 — per-maneuver mission-adequate alt-tol completion gate (v0.65.23): CODE-SHIP + build-authorization reviewer concur (round-trip not yet flown; not the five-issue close)

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1366 / #1356 — per-maneuver mission-adequate alt-tolerance completion gate (v0.65.23): CODE-SHIP + BUILD-AUTHORIZATION concur

§1 — TL;DR

Disposition: CONCUR on the completion-gate reframe code-ship + AUTHORIZE the operator-gated deploy build. The implementer executed the operator-ratified mission-adequacy reframe (9377932e) exactly as directed — a per-maneuver, ascent-specific completion-alt-tolerance widening, controller byte-untouched. Independently reproduced both load-bearing guards. NOT a five-issue close — the round-trip has not yet flown (it is gated behind the operator sudo docker build). Joint streak HOLDS 61.

Findings:

  1. Completion-gate-ONLY + ascent-specific, confirmed by diff. The entire automation_maneuvers.py delta vs v0.65.22 is the completion-gate region: one comment, one alt_tol_frac = float(maneuver.get("alt_tol_frac", CIRCULARIZE_ALT_TOL_FRAC)) read, and the CIRCULARIZE_ALT_TOL_FRAC * target_alt → alt_tol_frac * target_alt substituti
