The change appends a single dated entry to docs/DECISIONS.md and edits nothing else; AGENTS.md is untouched, so §3.15's reservation is not engaged. It is explicitly append-only — it corrects an apparent contradiction between two earlier entries by recording the chronology rather than rewriting either, which is exactly what §3.14 and the append-only discipline call for. The quoted founder direction ("open pr for me to merge by hand") is an operating-record direction, citable under the 2026-09-09 amendment, and it is stamped with date and channel ("direction in session, 2026-09-17") plus a Supervised-by line, so provenance is attributed honestly and not dressed up as anything else. No citations, identifiers or locators are added, so the verification section's emptiness is expected and no fabrication question arises. The only softness is the approximate timestamp "10:2xZ", but it is transparently approximate rather than false precision — consistent with §3.13, not a violation. No run records accompany the change and none are needed for a docs-only chronology note.

The change appends a corrective chronology rather than rewriting earlier decision-log entries, preserving the visible history required by §3.14. It identifies the relevant pull requests, sequence, merge times, date, and direction channel, and the constitution itself confirms that the 2026-09-17 §4 amendment was a founder amendment given in session. It does not edit AGENTS.md, weaken any check, add unverifiable citation identifiers, or present an unratified draft as ratified; no internal contradiction or positive evidence of fabricated provenance is visible.

The diff only appends an entry to docs/DECISIONS.md to clarify the chronology of recent entries without modifying prior entries, adhering to the append-only principle. It does not touch AGENTS.md, introduces no citations or content claims, and faithfully records operational provenance in response to review note #333.

The diff only appends one clarifying entry to docs/DECISIONS.md; it does not edit AGENTS.md, content records, citations, assessments, or any §3.15 check. The new entry explains a rebase-induced appearance of contradiction without rewriting earlier append-only log lines, which matches the stated purpose and the constitution’s preference for inspectable history. No citations, confidence material, or provenance stamps are introduced, and the RUN ACCOUNT / citation verification sections are empty as expected for a docs-only fix. Ordinary documentation of founder-directed chronology is within bounds.

This is a four-line, docs-only append to docs/DECISIONS.md that resolves an internal chronological contradiction flagged by review note #333, and it does so in the constitutionally correct way: it appends a new entry rather than editing either earlier entry, honoring the append-only log rule (§3.14 and the §7 amendment's 'append-only changelog' principle). The narrative it records is internally consistent with the authoritative base revision I was shown — the §4 provisional-admission amendment text does exist in AGENTS.md as a founder amendment dated 2026-09-17, and the immediately preceding log entry in the diff context does say the §4 sentence 'is proposed to the founder,' exactly the contradiction the new entry explains via a rebase. The timestamps (10:2xZ, 10:47Z, 11:02Z) and the direction-in-session stamp ('Supervised-by: founder (direction in session, 2026-09-17)') follow the founder-direction recording format of §3.15 with date and channel; the deliberately vague '10:2xZ' reads as honest calibration rather than false precision. I cannot independently verify the git merge times or who merged #332, but temporal humility applies: nothing in the material contradicts itself, the amendment's existence in the base revision corroborates the claimed chronology, and no citation, locator, or provenance detail is invented. No AGENTS.md edit, no confidence material, no weakened checks, and no run records are involved.
