* Confirmed Session 04 owns hosted persistence eligibility, public replay requirements, local-only fallback, disabled-default posture, and Phase 08 erasure handoff without adding databases, buckets, uploads, public replay routes, or trusted erasure claims.

**Files Changed**:

* `.spec_system/specs/phase07-session04-hosted-persistence-and-public-replay-boundaries/implementation-notes.md` - Recorded prerequisite verification evidence.

***

**Files Changed**:

* `.spec_system/specs/phase07-session04-hosted-persistence-and-public-replay-boundaries/implementation-notes.md` - Created session notes shell.

***

### Task T003 - Create hosted persistence and public replay boundary artifact

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:07 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:08 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Added the source-backed Session 04 boundary artifact with status vocabulary, data eligibility categories, blocked payload labels, server-mediated storage requirements, public replay hosting requirements, diagnostics rules, unsupported claims, local-only fallback, and Phase 08 erasure handoff.
* Kept wording scoped to planned, unavailable, disabled, local-only, and unsupported states.

**Files Changed**:

* `.spec_system/PRD/phase_07/hosted_persistence_public_replay_boundaries.md` - Added hosted persistence and public replay guardrail baseline.

***

### Task T004 - Create hosted persistence protocol contracts

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:08 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:11 **Duration**: 3 minutes

**Notes**:

* Added protocol-owned hosted persistence and public replay status vocabulary, eligibility decisions, data classifications, blocked payload labels, public replay requirements, docs paths, unsupported claims, type guards, counts, and bounded summary builder.
* Summary output is deterministic, status-only, and keeps hosted persistence required, storage runtime, upload endpoint, storage client, account-backed persistence, and public replay hosting disabled or not shipped.

**Files Changed**:

* `packages/protocol/src/hostedPersistence.ts` - Added shared guardrail contracts and summary helpers.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: Kept server/web-facing summary fields explicit and exhaustive for planned/unavailable diagnostics.
* Error information boundaries: Summary builder exposes labels, docs paths, booleans, and counts only.

***

### Task T005 - Add protocol hosted persistence tests

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:09 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:11 **Duration**: 2 minutes

**Notes**:

* Added tests for status and eligibility vocabulary, storage classifications, public replay requirements, blocked payload labels, unsupported claims, uniqueness, bounded summary shape, and negative raw-value assertions.
* Focused protocol test passed.

**Files Changed**:

* `packages/protocol/tests/hostedPersistence.test.ts` - Added hosted persistence contract tests.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: Tests verify count totals and exported array uniqueness.
* Error information boundaries: Tests assert synthetic storage secrets, service-role keys, account ids, prompts, terminal output, and local paths are absent from serialized summaries.

***

### Task T006 - Create hosted persistence diagnostics builder

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:11 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:13 **Duration**: 2 minutes

**Notes**:

* Added a local diagnostics builder that wraps the protocol summary and normalizes status to `planned` or `unavailable`.
* The builder does not read env values, request bodies, replay data, exports, logs, backups, account ids, tokens, local paths, or payload content.

**Files Changed**:

* `apps/server/src/lib/hostedPersistence.ts` - Added hosted persistence diagnostics builder and status normalization.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Error information boundaries: Diagnostics expose protocol labels and booleans only.
* Contract alignment: Builder consumes the shared protocol summary.

***

### Task T007 - Wire hosted persistence diagnostics route

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:11 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:13 **Duration**: 2 minutes

**Notes**:

* Added `GET /diagnostics/hosted-persistence` to the existing diagnostics router.
* The route inherits global local bearer auth, CORS, rate-limit, and JSON body limits from the server setup, and returns a compact 503 envelope if diagnostics fail.
* Added server option plumbing for the planned/unavailable diagnostics status.

**Files Changed**:

* `apps/server/src/routes/diagnostics.ts` - Added hosted persistence diagnostics route.
* `apps/server/src/server.ts` - Added hosted persistence diagnostics option plumbing.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Failure path completeness: Route catches builder failure and returns a bounded unavailable diagnostic error.
* Error information boundaries: Error envelope does not echo request bodies or raw values.

***

### Task T008 - Add server hosted persistence diagnostics tests

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:11 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:13 **Duration**: 2 minutes

**Notes**:

* Added route tests for planned posture, CORS inheritance, local bearer auth inheritance, unavailable status, no storage/public replay activation, synthetic sensitive-value non-leakage, and unsupported method body non-echo.
* Initial focused run failed because the protocol barrel had not exported the new module yet. Added the barrel export and reran successfully.

**Files Changed**:

* `apps/server/tests/hostedPersistenceDiagnostics.test.ts` - Added hosted persistence diagnostics route coverage.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Trust boundary enforcement: Auth inheritance is tested when `FACTIONOS_AUTH_TOKEN` equivalent test config is set.
* Error information boundaries: Tests assert synthetic tokens, account ids, prompt text, replay/export/log/backup strings, and local paths are absent from diagnostics.

***

### Task T011 - Export hosted persistence contracts from protocol barrel

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:13 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:13 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Exported hosted persistence contracts from the protocol barrel so server and web consumers can follow the existing `@factionos/protocol` import pattern.

**Files Changed**:

* `packages/protocol/src/index.ts` - Added `hostedPersistence` barrel export.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: Server diagnostics now consume the same public protocol surface as existing hosted config and hosted identity modules.

***

### Task T009 - Create browser hosted persistence helper

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:13 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:15 **Duration**: 2 minutes

**Notes**:

* Added browser helper state for planned/unavailable hosted persistence, disabled public replay hosting, local URL-fragment replay fallback, replay caps, docs, blocked labels, and unsupported claims.
* Kept account UI, storage clients, upload endpoints, hosted storage, public replay hosting, and account-backed persistence explicitly unavailable or false.

**Files Changed**:

* `apps/web/src/lib/hostedPersistence.ts` - Added hosted persistence and public replay browser helpers.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: Browser helper consumes protocol-owned labels and replay-link caps.
* Accessibility and platform compliance: Helper copy is bounded and explicit for future UI state, without adding UI controls in this task.

***

### Task T010 - Add web hosted persistence helper tests

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:14 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:15 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Added tests for planned and unavailable browser posture, disabled public replay hosting, local URL-fragment fallback behavior, replay caps, and negative raw-value exposure.
* Focused web helper test passed.

**Files Changed**:

* `apps/web/tests/hostedPersistence.test.ts` - Added hosted persistence browser helper tests.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: Tests verify replay caps and disabled-state flags match the replay-link module and protocol summary.
* Error information boundaries: Tests assert synthetic storage secrets, service-role keys, account ids, replay/export bodies, and local paths are absent.

***

### Task T012 - Add replay-link local-only regression assertions

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:15 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:16 **Duration**: 1 minute

**Notes**:

* Added replay-link regression coverage proving share URLs remain `#replay=` fragments, do not include public replay or upload paths, redact prompts/commands/paths/secrets/URLs, and reject oversized per-event payloads.
* Focused replay-link test passed.

**Files Changed**:

* `apps/web/tests/replayLink.test.ts` - Added hosted persistence/public replay boundary regression assertions.

**BQC Fixes**:

* Contract alignment: Test asserts local replay fragment semantics stay aligned with Session 04 public replay boundary.
* Error information boundaries: Test asserts raw prompt, secret, URL, and local path strings are absent after decoding.

***

### Task T013 - Update API docs for hosted persistence diagnostics

**Started**: 2026-05-30 10:16 **Completed**: 2026-05-30 10:17 **Duration**: 1 minute

## Session Summary

* Added hosted persistence and public replay guardrail source artifacts, protocol contracts, server diagnostics, browser helpers, tests, and docs alignment.
* Current behavior remains planned, unavailable, disabled, and local-only. No hosted database, storage bucket, migration, upload endpoint, public replay route, account-backed persistence, takedown runtime, release-grade deletion, or trusted erasure behavior was added.
* Focused tests, focused typechecks, ASCII/LF checks, and `git diff --check` passed.

***

## Skipped Checks

None.

***

## Residual Risks

* Phase 08 still owns trusted unified erasure, production-hosted validation, release hardening, certification, release-grade deletion, and legacy decommission.
* Run the validate workflow step next for formal session validation.
