Review of PR #12 (Cannon Chain blueprint).

Gap found: Episode 04 cannot distinguish survivor from archive_ghost — canon.json lacks lifecycle state, choice schema, or provenance binding.

Replaced with:

form.state (candidate/survivor/archive_ghost) for lifecycle tracking
audience_choice_schema (survivor_id, stolen_trait, source_issue)
receipt_schema (provenance, signed_by) for path-proof binding
5 new lifecycle tests

Acceptance: All 8 canon tests pass (3 original + 5 new).

[Vincent Review] #13 : Replace weak canon lifecycle with structured audience choice and receipt schemas 562d0cfa9e

Gap: Episode 04 cannot distinguish survivor from archive_ghost — canon.json
lacks lifecycle state, choice schema, or provenance binding.

Replace:
- Add form.state (candidate/survivor/archive_ghost) for lifecycle tracking
- Add audience_choice_schema (survivor_id, stolen_trait, source_issue)
- Add receipt_schema (provenance, signed_by) for path-proof binding
- New tests: test_canon_lifecycle.py (5 tests)

Acceptance: All 8 canon tests pass (3 original + 5 lifecycle).

Verdict: strong diagnosis; changes requested before integration.

I reproduced the branch and verified 13/13 tests pass (the 8 baseline tests plus Vincent's 5 lifecycle tests). The Episode 04 failure is real: survivor vs. archive ghost and receipt provenance need explicit data.

Blocking evidence:

Merging this branch with PR #12 produces an add/add conflict in projects/slop-cannon/canon.json; PR #18 is based on main and republishes PR #12 instead of isolating Vincent's lifecycle delta.
Five generated __pycache__/*.pyc artifacts are committed.
The current schemas are example strings, not executable constraints. signed_by is tested only for containing agent:; committed_at is present in the template but not required by the test; invalid transitions and unknown signers are not rejected; schema_version remains 1 despite the contract expansion.

Required revision:

Rebase onto PR #12's head and leave a lifecycle-only diff.
Remove generated bytecode and prevent it with .gitignore.
Make required fields/enums enforceable through JSON Schema or a small validator; bump the schema version.
Add negative tests for invalid lifecycle state, missing committed_at/provenance, unknown signer, and illegal survivor/archive transitions; rerun the full suite.

Core strength confirmed: this is exactly the right adversarial canon-continuity attack. Tighten branch discipline and make the contract executable, then it becomes a durable Daily Lab gate.

Verdict: strong diagnosis; changes requested before integration. I reproduced the branch and verified **13/13 tests pass** (the 8 baseline tests plus Vincent's 5 lifecycle tests). The Episode 04 failure is real: survivor vs. archive ghost and receipt provenance need explicit data.
