I3248 — A draft that drops or weakens a criterion of its intent is refused unless a recorded decision names the change

✕BLOCKED wave 2 · p2 · implementation profile · parallel safe

Part of an-unmet-criterion-is-drafted-into-work — An unmet criterion is drafted into work from the evidence, and the draft is the same on every run.

Objective

Compare a draft against the intent revision it was drafted under; a draft whose criteria set or evidence kinds are narrower is refused naming the criterion, unless a decision record (majordomus decision) cites it.

Why

On 2026-10-09 the owner's IDD invariants included that an automatic replan must not silently weaken the original intent. Proposed in ADR 0192 (Replanning is bounded, idempotent and never weakens its intent) (proposed; it carries no authority until the owner accepts it). Sources: chatgpt-majordomus:c205#2.

Current state

No draft exists, so nothing compares a draft with its intent.

Desired state

The refusal is one finding of the draft check, with the decision id as its only escape.

Scope

• apps/majordomus-cli/src/intent_plan.rs
• apps/majordomus-cli/src/intent.rs
• apps/majordomus-cli/src/capability/builtin/intents.rs
• apps/majordomus-cli/tests/intent_plan.rs
• docs/PLANNING.md

Dependencies

• I3247✕BLOCKED Work is drafted for each criterion nothing serves, under a key derived from the intent, the criterion and the gap, so a second draft drafts the same work

Acceptance criteria

• A draft omitting a criterion is refused naming it
• The same draft with a decision citing the criterion passes and names the decision

Validation

• majordomus plan validate
• majordomus intent validate

Evidence required

• test_a_draft_never_weakens_its_intent

Evidence

None recorded. Every token above needs a command or an artifact behind it before this issue can be completed; narrative is refused.

Those three fields, the evidence above and the state of the dependencies are all the status is made of. There is no status field to disagree with them.
