Problem

An agent judgment on a survivor or a test kind is lost after the run. The next run pays for the same judgment again. A tracked ruling ledger under .sdlc/ applies an old verdict without an agent when the key matches.

Reproduce

n/a: feature ticket.

Approach

Source: docs/research/mutation-testing/plan-v1-2026-11-08.md, table "Increments, in order", row 3. The section "Rulings" is binding; do not re-decide it. Decompose against the plan before implementation.

Origin

  • Trigger: plan docs/research/mutation-testing/plan-v1-2026-11-08.md (commit b90d8253), ruled by Jared 2026-11-07 and 2026-11-08
  • Improvised this session: none
  • Chain: suite doubled in six weeks (757 test files, 3,572 test methods) ← suspected duplicated behavior and tests with no demonstrated value ← no mutation evidence in the gate. End: DESIGN (docs/research/mutation-testing/plan-v1-2026-11-08.md)
  • Root candidate: none found; searched mutation, mutineer, mutant, survivor, taxonomy, redundant test, blind test, duplicate, overlap, ledger
  • Where: plugins/os-sdlc/.sdlc/ (new ledger TSV)
  • Session: ff703e34-8046-4b24-af68-6ef76d8aa338

Resolution

Done: MutationTest::Ledger keeps survivor and test-kind judgments in tracked .sdlc/mutation-rulings.tsv; MutationTest#outcome and Taxonomy#kind apply a matching row with no agent; os-sdlc-mutation-rule appends a row.

Evidence: commit 2cada04a on main; suite 3576 runs 0 failures; rubocop clean on 14 files; history row in docs/implementation-status/os-sdlc.md

Follow-ups: none
