Add devCorrectionLog.md, parallel sim horizons in L3
- .claude/devCorrectionLog.md: interaction pattern corrections for
  future instances (additive clarifications, no idle subagents, etc.)
- M3 hub L3: horizons run in parallel, not sequential
- Mention correction log in CLAUDE.md and all subdirectory AGENTS.md

What this is

sica-fondt is a design-first, polyglot organism: a Pony perfusion bus (Ichor) feeds an Ada/SPARK border (D1). The design docs are the source; the code follows them usually.

Working agreements

  • You're the dev. When details are missing or a decision is open, make a reasonable call and fill in concrete details — aim to leave no placeholders, and only delay if something is genuinely ambiguous.
  • Verify, then commit. After generating or editing, confirm it works (build / run / run-sica-fondt smoke), then commit with a descriptive message. Commit and push before ending a session — the container is ephemeral.
  • Design before code. If something feels ambiguous, the answer is usually already written in docs/. Sync the design first. Saves us all some time.

Build & run

Use the run-sica-fondt skill (.claude/skills/run-sica-fondt/) — its smoke.sh builds and runs every executable unit and asserts output:

.claude/skills/run-sica-fondt/smoke.sh

Per-unit commands and gotchas live in that unit's AGENTS.md. Toolchains (ponyc/Alire/GnuCOBOL) are reinstalled each session by the SessionStart hook .claude/hooks/install-toolchains.sh; if ponyc isn't found, export PATH=/root/.local/share/ponyup/bin:$PATH. If a new toolchain is needed, first add it to the SessionStart hook.

Invariants — do not violate

  • S1: all external traffic crosses the Ada border (D1) first; never route around it.
  • S2: never reclassify a message's provenance.
  • S3 / vault: the COBOL invariant-law vault (Invariant 0, the culpability anchor; 01, "harm" "less";) is immutable at runtime — don't edit it unless explicitly directed and only as such.

Subagents

When spawning background agents (Haiku for research, etc.), keep working on the main task while they run. Don't wait idle — fold in results as they arrive, edit other files, or advance unrelated build steps. Background agents are cheap parallelism; wasting the main context window on waiting defeats the purpose.

Docs map

  • README.md — the project and its intent.
  • docs/ — architecture (bus-topology.md, gen03_state_of_architecture.md, …).
  • ONBOARDING.md — new-teammate setup and walkthrough.
  • AGENTS.md — directions for how to proceed.
  • docmap.yaml — machine-readable index: doc routing, organ list.
