Session log (chronological, append-only, one line per session)

Discipline: new operational lessons go into a predicate above. Each dated entry below is a one-line pointer at the predicates derived from that session — NOT a prose narrative. If you can't compress a session's lesson into a predicate, the lesson isn't sharp enough yet — keep grinding.

PR #3649 fix: chunk node --test spawn at 28K argv ceiling (Windows CreateProcess lpCommandLine cap 32,767 was instantly aborting unchunked spawn of 546 paths).

DEFECT.SDK-PORT-NAME-COLLISION.symptom=SDK author writes new handler with same canonical name as legacy CJS command but different positional-arg shape; Phase-N router migration silently rebinds CLI dispatch to the new SDK function and every legacy no-arg / wrong-arg caller errors out at the handler's own validation throwDEFECT.SDK-PORT-NAME-COLLISION.examples=#3577 config-ensure-section (legacy CJS = no-arg full-default init via ensureConfigFile→buildNewProjectConfig; new SDK configEnsureSection = single-section ensure requiring args[0]; all CLI callers pass no args; SDK throws "Usage: config-ensure-section ")DEFECT.SDK-PORT-NAME-COLLISION.detect=grep new-handler name in sdk/src/query/command-static-catalog-foundation.ts catalog → trace every CLI/test caller of the canonical name → if any caller's argv shape differs from the new SDK handler's args[0] expectation, the migration broke the legacy contractDEFECT.SDK-PORT-NAME-COLLISION.fix-forward=either (a) bind the catalog entry to a SDK handler whose body mirrors legacy semantics (e.g. configNewProject when no args), or (b) keep the dispatch case calling the CJS handler directly and remove the SDK-bridge attempt (precedent: 7d5dfa9d codex runtime carve-out). Whichever path, add a behavioral test that round-trips the legacy invocation shape to lock the contractDEFECT.SDK-PORT-NAME-COLLISION.generative-tie=instance of DEFECT.GENERATIVE-PRIORITY — parity assertion at the test layer between CJS handler shape and SDK handler shape would have failed at PR open
