Cycle 1 Product Implementation Completeness Gate post-mortem.
AZ-589 + AZ-590 were the wrong abstraction:
- AZ-589 targeted `okvis::ThreadedKFVio` (OKVIS v1 API) which does
not exist in the vendored OKVIS2 upstream; smartroboticslab/okvis2
exposes `okvis::ThreadedSlam` instead.
- AZ-590 assumed a "de-ROSified VINS-Mono pin" submodule exists;
`cpp/vins_mono/upstream/` has no `.gitmodules` entry.
- The actual production gap is the empty central
`_STRATEGY_REGISTRY`: `register_strategy(...)` is never called
outside test fixtures, so `compose_root()` raises
`StrategyNotLinkedError` for every component slug with a
strategy-selecting config field. Affects c1_vio + c2_vpr +
c2_5_rerank + c3_matcher + c3_5_adhop + c4_pose + c5_state.
Re-classification:
- AZ-589 + AZ-590 closed Won't Fix (Jira); spec files removed
from todo/ but rows retained in the dependencies table as
audit-trail.
- AZ-591 created (todo/, 5pt) — cross-cutting compose_root
per-binary bootstrap that populates `_STRATEGY_REGISTRY` for
the airborne binary. Scheduled as Batch 66 sole task.
- AZ-592 created (backlog/, 5pt placeholder) — AZ-332 Tier-2
validation bundle (real `okvis::ThreadedSlam` wiring + Linux CI
apt-install + DBoW2 vocab + Jetson). BLOCKED on Tier-2
prerequisites; honors AZ-332's `AZ-332_tier2_validation`
self-deferral handle.
- AZ-593 created (backlog/, 5pt placeholder) — AZ-333 Tier-2
validation bundle (de-ROSified VINS-Mono upstream + binding +
CI + Jetson). BLOCKED on upstream vendoring decision plus
Tier-2 prerequisites; honors AZ-333's parallel deferral pattern.
- AZ-332 + AZ-333 re-classified in cycle1 gate report from FAIL
to BLOCKED-on-Tier-2.
Step 7 stays in_progress until AZ-591 lands; after that it can
advance to Step 8 with AZ-592 + AZ-593 parked in backlog/.

The Product Implementation Completeness Gate (cycle 1, 2026-05-16)
audited 107 done product tasks. 105 PASS / 0 BLOCKED / 2 FAIL.
FAIL findings — both AZ-332 (OKVIS2) and AZ-333 (VINS-Mono) ship a
real Python facade + AC-tested fake backend, but their native pybind11
bindings (_native/okvis2_binding.cpp, _native/vins_mono_binding.cpp)
are skeletons: _build_estimator() sets estimator_built_ = false; the
first add_frame() raises *FatalException("estimator not yet wired").
Production-default VIO and the comparative-study path both crash on
the first nav-camera frame.
Remediation tasks created in _docs/02_tasks/todo/:
- AZ-589 remediate_okvis2_threadedkfvio_wiring (5pt)
- AZ-590 remediate_vins_mono_estimator_wiring (5pt)
Both tasks also seed the per-binary bootstrap register_strategy() call
sites — the existing strategy registry in runtime_root/__init__.py is
never invoked in src/ today.
Artifacts:
- _docs/03_implementation/implementation_completeness_cycle1_report.md
- _docs/02_tasks/todo/AZ-589_remediate_okvis2_threadedkfvio_wiring.md

Returning to implement-skill Step 1 to parse Batch 66 against these

All FC adapter outbound MAVLink bytes now go through the AZ-401
MavlinkTransport seam (NoopMavlinkTransport in replay,
SerialMavlinkTransport in live). New helpers in
_outbound_mavlink_payloads.py extract encode/pack/seq-bump so the four
AP _send sites and the iNav statustext _send site become
encode -> pack -> transport.write. TlogReplayFcAdapter emits real
AP-shape MAVLink bytes through the injected NoopMavlinkTransport,
satisfying replay protocol Invariant 5 and unblocking AZ-401 AC-9.
Closes AZ-558. Also unskips AZ-401 AC-9 and AZ-404 AC-4b. Live wire
output remains byte-identical (proven via two-instance MAVLink
byte-equivalence tests). AST scan asserts no .mav.<name>_send( calls
remain in the retrofit set (AP / iNav / tlog adapters).
Out of scope (logged in review): GCS adapter retrofit; airborne live
strategy registration that would activate the SerialMavlinkTransport
factory injection path.
Tests: 2110 passed, 92 environmental skips, 1 unrelated pre-existing
macOS cold-start flake deselected.

AZ-389's task spec assumed the existence of `tile_store.put_mid_flight_
candidate(MidFlightTileCandidate)` (in Excluded: "owned by AZ-303 / E-C6"),
but the current TileStore Protocol has only the four-method baseline
shipped under AZ-303 — there is no put_mid_flight_candidate, no
MidFlightTileCandidate DTO, and no MID_FLIGHT_INGEST TileSource enum value.
Filed AZ-559 as a 5pt task to close the C6 storage gap (Protocol method
+ DTO + enum + persistence + freshness/LRU integration + contract
update). Updated AZ-389 spec to depend on AZ-559 (replacing the stale
AZ-303 dep) with a Status: BLOCKED note. Updated the dependencies
table totals: 151 tasks / 502 complexity points.
This is the same dep-gap pattern surfaced for AZ-401 in batch 61
(missing AZ-400 transport-seam retrofit) — the autodev replay-track
sequence is exposing under-spec deliveries upstream. Tracker remains
the source of truth via the new AZ-559 issue + Blocks link.

Wires the airborne composition root for replay-as-configuration (ADR-011):
- compose_root(config) branches on config.mode in {"live", "replay"}.
Live behaviour is unchanged; replay builds ReplayInputAdapter,
attaches JsonlReplaySink, and injects NoopMavlinkTransport.
- New private module runtime_root/_replay_branch.py holds the
replay-only strategy graph + build-flag gate + calibration loader.
- Config gains Config.mode (Literal["live","replay"]) plus
Config.replay sub-block with nested ReplayAutoSyncConfig that mirrors
the AZ-405 AutoSyncConfig DTO; YAML loader + ENV map updated.
Absorbs the AZ-400 transport-seam retrofit that AZ-401 strictly
required but AZ-400 had not delivered:
- New MavlinkTransport Protocol (write/bytes_written/close).
- NoopMavlinkTransport (replay; build-flag gated, idempotent close,
thread-safe byte counter).
- SerialMavlinkTransport (live, no-op restructure of existing pymavlink
byte path; encoder retrofit to actually USE it is the AZ-558
follow-up).
AZ-401 AC-9 (NoopMavlinkTransport.bytes_written > 0 after C8 encoders
run) is BLOCKED on AZ-558 — the encoder routing retrofit is out of
the AZ-401 task envelope (FORBIDDEN files: pymavlink_ardupilot_adapter,
msp2_inav_adapter). AZ-558 spec, batch_61_review.md, and the test's
@pytest.mark.skip rationale all carry the deferral reason.
Tests: 22 compose_root replay-branch tests + 17 transport tests.
Full regression: 2063 passed, 86 environment-skips, 1 documented
skip (AC-9 / AZ-558), 1 pre-existing flaky perf test deselected.

Re-design replay mode per user direction: replay is no longer a fourth
Docker image with a reduced component set, but a `config.mode = "replay"`
branch of the single airborne binary. The pre-flight workflow (route in
suite UI -> C12 tile download via real satellite-provider -> C10
manifest+engines build) is identical between live and replay; only three
strategies swap at compose time:
FrameSource: Live <-> Video
FcAdapter: Pymavlink/MSP2 <-> TlogReplay
MavlinkTransport: Serial <-> Noop
The C8 outbound MAVLink encoders run unchanged in both modes; their
bytes hit `NoopMavlinkTransport` in replay and disappear. A new
`JsonlReplaySink` taps C5's `EstimatorOutput` stream so the parent-suite
UI sees per-tick coordinates by tailing `results.jsonl`. MAVLink 2.0
signing key remains mandatory (operator supplies a dummy file).
A new `replay_input/` Layer-4 cross-cutting coordinator owns
`(video, tlog) -> (FrameSource, FcAdapter, Clock)` convergence; the
composition root sees only standard interfaces past `.open()`.
Docs:
- architecture.md: new ADR-011 with full rationale; ADR-002 binary
narrative updated.
- contracts/replay/replay_protocol.md: bumped to v2.0.0; 12 invariants
(notably mode-agnosticism + encoder byte-equality + signing key
mandatory + real C6 cache in replay).
- module-layout.md: Build-Time Exclusion Map dropped from 4 to 3 binary
columns; replay-mode `BUILD_*` flags default ON in airborne;
`shared/replay_input` cross-cutting entry added.
- epics.md: E-DEMO-REPLAY scope reframed; story points 27-32 -> 19-24.
Task respecs:
- AZ-401: shrunk 3 -> 2 pts; `compose_root` mode branch + JSONL sink +
NoopMavlinkTransport wiring; legacy `compose_replay` export deleted.
- AZ-402: console-script wrapper that mutates `config.mode = "replay"`
and dispatches into the shared airborne main; `--mavlink-signing-key`
mandatory.
- AZ-403: CANCELLED. Moved to done/ with banner; Jira transition deferred
via `_docs/_process_leftovers/2026-05-14_az_403_cancellation_pending_tracker.md`.
- AZ-404: AC-4 reworded as mode-agnosticism AST scan + encoder
byte-equality test; new AC-8 operator-workflow rehearsal.
- AZ-405: also owns the `replay_input/` module + `ReplayInputAdapter`.
_dependencies_table.md updated: AZ-401 gains AZ-405 dep; AZ-404 drops
AZ-403 dep; AZ-403 row marked CANCELLED.

Follow-up to cumulative review batches 52-54 Finding F1. Creates the
local task-spec file under _docs/02_tasks/todo/ and adds the row to
_dependencies_table.md so Batch 55's implement-loop can pick AZ-528
up. Mirrors the AZ-527 precedent from the c2_vpr-side cumulative
review (49-51): cumulative review opens the Jira ticket + raises the
finding, the prep commit adds the spec, the next batch implements.
Sized at 3 points (1 helper module + 3 strategy edits + 1 test file
with AST-walk + import-grep regression guards). Marginally larger
than AZ-527's 2-point c2 consolidation because the c1 spine has both
module-level free functions AND mixin-shaped instance methods.

VinsMonoStrategy: Python facade conforming to AZ-331 Protocol; mirrors
the AZ-332 OKVIS2 facade so the AZ-331 factory + IT-12 comparative
harness can treat both as drop-in substitutable. Native binding is a
pybind11 skeleton compiled behind BUILD_VINS_MONO=ON (default OFF for
airborne / operator-tooling / replay-cli per module-layout.md
Build-Time Exclusion Map). Real vins_estimator wiring is the Tier-2
follow-up.
VinsMonoConfig added to c1_vio/config.py with sliding-window /
feature-tracker / marginalisation / opt-iteration knobs plus
__post_init__ validation; exported through the package __init__.
cpp/vins_mono/CMakeLists.txt replaces the AZ-263 placeholder with full
pybind11 wiring: Risk-1 mitigation forces VINS_MONO_USE_ROS=OFF;
Risk-2 mitigation links Eigen from the same cpp/_third_party/eigen pin
as OKVIS2; Risk-3 mitigation enforces BUILD_VINS_MONO=OFF in
deployment binaries via the gate at the top of the file.
Tests: 17 new in test_vins_mono_strategy.py (15 pass + 2 tier2 skip);
fake_vins_mono_binding fixture added to conftest.py mirroring the
fake_okvis2_binding pattern; test_protocol_conformance updated to drop
vins_mono from _STRATEGIES_WITHOUT_PY_MODULE so the existing
parametrised factory tests route through the new strategy.
Focused c1_vio suite: 72 passed, 4 skipped. Full suite: 1788 passed,
1 unrelated pre-existing flake (c12 cold-start perf, env-bound).

Closes cumulative review 46-48 F1 (Medium) + F3 (Low). Adds
iso_ts_from_clock(clock) alongside iso_ts_now() in the Layer-1
helper; migrates four duplicate definitions in c2_vpr (net_vlad,
ultra_vpr, _faiss_bridge) and c12_operator_orchestrator
(operator_reloc_service). Output format flipped +00:00 -> Z to
align with iso_ts_now() and the canonical FDR _TS fixture (FDR
schema test passes unmodified).
18 helper AC tests + 186 sibling tests pass; ruff clean.

Open two ~2-point hygiene PBIs surfaced by
_docs/03_implementation/cumulative_review_batches_31-33_cycle1_report.md:
- AZ-507 (parent AZ-246 / E-CC-CONF) — align module-layout.md
cross-component import rules with the AZ-270 lint test. Resolves the
doc-vs-lint contradiction surfaced on AZ-321 by tightening the doc
(option (a) from the review) + hoisting EngineBuildError /
CalibrationCacheError to _types/inference_errors.py.
- AZ-508 (parent AZ-264 / E-CC-HELPERS) — consolidate 5 identical
_iso_ts_now() one-liners across c6_tile_cache + c7_inference into a
single Layer-1 helper at helpers/iso_timestamps.py.
Dependencies table headers bumped: 142 -> 144 tasks, 478 -> 482 points
(product 345 -> 349). State file's pause-point detail cleared; next
sub_step is the implement skill's Step 3 (compute next batch) for
batch 34.

Keep VIO package and native bridge paths backend-neutral so BASALT remains an implementation choice rather than a component boundary.
