-# M4.3 — M4 composition gate
-
-| Field | Value |
-|---|---|
-| Phase | M4 — Skills |
-| Size | M — 1–3 days |
-| Status | ⬜ Not started |
-| Flags | gate |
-| Spec | inlined below |
-| Blocks | all of M4 |
-
-## Goal
-
-Prove the loop stays open — that a generated skill cannot silently become
-training data for the memory that generated it.
-
-## Facts (inlined — no spec read needed)
-
-Two properties, and both must hold. Either one alone is insufficient:
-
-1. **A draft is not loadable.** It lives in `_drafts/`, and pointing a real agent
-   at `vault/skills/` must not surface it.
-2. **A promoted skill's text never enters evidence.** Even after a human promotes
-   it and it appears in a session, the derived filter keeps it out of L0.
-
-The gate exercises the full cycle deliberately: draft a skill, promote it, run a
-session that loads it, ingest that session, and assert the skill's content did
-not become evidence.
-
-Property 1 is tested with the real loader, not by inspecting paths — the
-question is what an agent actually sees.
-
-## Steps
-
-1. Draft a skill from a real note.
-2. `pi --skill vault/skills/ --list-skills` (or the equivalent enumeration);
-   assert the draft is absent.
-3. Promote it with `git mv` out of `_drafts/`; assert it now appears.
-4. Synthesize a session transcript that quotes the promoted skill, in three
-   grades: verbatim, reformatted, and merely referenced.
-5. Ingest it; assert the first two are excluded and the third is kept.
-6. Run `mem verify --derived-filter`; assert clean.
-7. Commit `expected/m4.3.txt`; diff.
-
-## Acceptance
-
-- Draft absent from a real loader's skill enumeration.
-- Promoted skill present.
-- Verbatim and reformatted quotes excluded from evidence; a bare mention kept.
-- `mem verify --derived-filter` reports zero leaks.
-
-## Verify
-
-**Harness:** the real `pi` binary for enumeration, seeded vault and log.
-
-**Integration test** — `verify/m4.3.sh` diffed against `expected/m4.3.txt`:
-1. `a1_draft_not_loadable` — enumerate skills; assert the draft name is absent.
-2. `a2_promoted_is_loadable` — after `git mv`, assert present. Proves assertion 1
-   is not passing because the loader is broken.
-3. `a3_verbatim_excluded` — ingest, assert no L0 node matches.
-4. `a4_reformatted_excluded` — same.
-5. `a5_mention_kept` — the referencing record survives as evidence.
-6. `a6_verify_clean` — `mem verify --derived-filter` exits 0.
-7. `a7_exclusions_auditable` — assert `derived_excluded` events name the artifact.
-
-**Command:** `bash verify/m4.3.sh | diff - expected/m4.3.txt`
-
-**False pass:**
-- Asserting the draft is absent without assertion 2. If the loader silently fails
-  to enumerate anything, assertion 1 passes trivially and the guarantee is
-  untested.
-- Testing exclusion only on the draft. The draft is not the risk — a *promoted*
-  skill is the one that actually reaches sessions, and it is the one the filter
-  must catch.
-
-## Traps
-
-- Automating promotion inside the gate script and leaving it there. The gate
-  needs to promote something to test the promoted path; make it obvious that the
-  script is the only place it happens, and that production has no such path.
-- Reading a passing gate as "the cycle is impossible". It means the two guards
-  hold today. Adding a new emitted artifact type without adding it to the
-  manifest reopens the loop, and only assertion 6 will notice.
