FABRIC-3.5.md: close the design phase (provisional, not archival)

Browse Source 
Closed by direct instruction. Every design question this document opened
is ruled; no code has been written and none is authorized.

Deliberately a narrower close than §XXVI.5 specified, and the difference
is stated rather than glossed. §XXVI.5 ruled that this document closes
when the tag exists, in FABRIC-2's CLOSED/ARCHIVAL form, naming the tag
it closed at. The tag does not exist, so claiming that close would be a
label running ahead of the real state -- the exact error §I.2 corrected
when it rolled LITHOS_VERSION back, and the same standard §XXIX applied
to the LTS question. The archival close still stands and still happens at
v2.1.0; this header is the provisional one the instruction's own "for
now" asks for.

Restates that nothing is carried forward and no successor is created,
since this document is not in the FABRIC-0 through -3 chain, and that
FABRIC-3 remains open and authoritative for bare metal boot. Names the
punch list as the live artifact the build works from, and records the
three items that are explicitly outside this reshuffle and still need
their own authorization: the CLAUDE.md and MANIFEST documentation
reconciliation, the src/*.c.bak hygiene question, and the stray v2.0.1
branch and PR #1.

# FABRIC-3.5.md — the Tripod/kernel reshuffle
**Status:** Standalone working document, opened 2026-09-18 by direct instruction ("we write
this in `FABRIC-3.5.md` as its own document, it's this important"). Topic: **relocating Hermes
into the kernel, reconstituting the Tripod as Hera/Artemis/Hestia, generalizing `BIRTH`, and
adopting one fleet-wide failure/recovery ladder.**
**Status: DESIGN PHASE CLOSED as of 2026-09-19, by direct instruction ("close the document for
now"). Not yet archival.**
**What is closed, and what is deliberately not.** Every design question this document opened is
ruled — see §XXX.7. **No code has been written and no code is authorized.** The execution
sequence (§XXVI.6, as amended by §XXX.7) is untouched: the surgical strip, the build, the
Isabelle/HOL pass, the documentation sweep, the SBOM, the merge to `master`, and the `v2.1.0`
tag all remain ahead.
**This is therefore a narrower close than §XXVI.5 specified**, and the difference is stated
rather than glossed. §XXVI.5 ruled that this document closes *when the tag exists*, in
`FABRIC-2.md`'s CLOSED/ARCHIVAL form, naming the tag it closed at. **The tag does not exist**,
so claiming that close would be a label running ahead of the real state — the exact error
`FABRIC-3.md` §I.2 corrected when it rolled `LITHOS_VERSION` back, and the same standard §XXIX
applied to the LTS question. **The archival close specified by §XXVI.5 still stands and still
happens at `v2.1.0`.** This header is the provisional one the instruction's own "for now" asks
for.
**Nothing is carried forward and no successor is created.** As §XXVI.5 establishes, this
document is not part of the `FABRIC-0 → -1 → -2 → -3` chain, so closing it hands nothing to a
successor. **`FABRIC-3.md` remains open, living and authoritative for its own topic** (bare
metal boot); nothing here supersedes it. The live artifact from this document is its punch list
(§XXVI.6 / §XXX.7) — that, not this header, is what the build works from.
**Open by design, not by omission:** items 10–17 of §XXVI.6 are execution, not decisions.
Three things recorded here are explicitly *outside* this reshuffle and still need their own
authorization — the `.claude/CLAUDE.md`/`MANIFEST.md` documentation reconciliation (§XXVI.1),
the `src/*.c.bak` hygiene question (§XXII.5), and the stray `refs/heads/v2.0.1` branch and
PR #1 (§XXVI.4).

**Topic and original framing, as opened.** Standalone working document, opened 2026-09-18 by

**Why 3.5 and not 4, and why not a section of 3.** `FABRIC-4.md` is explicitly the
lower-discipline scratchpad for theory-stage ideas "caught early... often missing a stated
