### Watch lifecycle closure and subscription receipts fail closed
Watch exposes one existing-finding lifecycle contract to the selected model:
`patrol_assess_finding` with an explicit `present`, `resolved`, or `uncertain`
verdict. The legacy `patrol_resolve_finding` handler remains registered only as
a compatibility boundary for older internal callers; the Patrol detection
profile neither projects nor executes it. Scoped Watch manifests derive from
the same shared detection-tool vocabulary, so resource-type minimization cannot
reintroduce that compatibility handler after profile projection. A resolved assessment still crosses
the same server-owned verification boundary. In particular, a health finding
for an app container cannot close while the exact current Patrol snapshot
continues to report a non-healthy provider health value, even if model prose or
the selected tool claims otherwise.
Local subscription transports retain provider-owned usage receipts without
making token fields part of the model-authored structured turn. Claude usage
comes from its terminal result envelope. Codex usage comes from the terminal
`turn.completed` event emitted by `codex exec --json` and is joined to the
strict last-message payload only after both have passed transport validation.
Qualification may therefore require positive input/output usage for a
tool-free real-model all-clear without falsely rejecting Codex subscription
runs whose analysis and healthy outcome were durably persisted.

core-resolved canonical resource type set. The shared
`agentcapabilities.PatrolDetectionToolNamesForResourceTypes` mapping retains
canonical query evidence and only the relevant subsystem and detection
lifecycle schemas; optional agent-routed deep reads are deferred to the
investigation boundary. Investigations carry their finding `resource_type` over
lifecycle schemas. That mapping exposes `patrol_assess_finding` as the only
existing-finding verdict path and omits the legacy direct
`patrol_resolve_finding` compatibility handler, matching the detection
execution profile's fail-closed projection. Optional agent-routed deep reads
are deferred to the investigation boundary. Investigations carry their finding `resource_type` over
the public Pulse/Enterprise orchestrator dependency contract and use the companion
investigation projection. That projection intersects optional evidence tools

**Patrol Reporting:**
- patrol_report_finding Report a finding (creates a structured finding with validation)
- patrol_assess_finding Record present, resolved, or uncertain for an existing finding
- patrol_resolve_finding Resolve an existing finding that is no longer an issue
- patrol_propose_observer Propose a bounded read-only observer artifact for an uncovered operator objective; this does not install it or claim coverage

A direct provider-reported failed health check, failed backup, or broken replication state is already confirmed evidence of an operational symptom. Report that symptom even when logs or command execution are unavailable. Use warning/reliability for a failed health check unless the evidence establishes a critical consequence. State that the root cause is unknown and recommend the next safe diagnostic step; never invent a root cause. Missing optional root-cause evidence must not suppress a confirmed symptom-level finding.
**Step 3 Report or assess findings.** Optimize for operator work, not symptom count. Group symptoms that share one causal chain into one operator-facing finding on the user-facing degraded resource. Symptoms that would send the operator into the same investigation belong in that finding as related evidence with honest uncertainty. Report separate findings only for causally independent incidents requiring separate operator work. A stopped, exited, offline, or otherwise down resource is owned by real-time alerts: do not restate that state as a Patrol finding. Report each new confirmed Patrol incident with patrol_report_finding. Every report call must independently include all required arguments: ` + strings.Join(tools.PatrolReportFindingRequiredArguments(), ", ") + `. Report one incident at a time and wait for its result before reporting another; before every additional report, stop if the accepted finding already sends the operator into the same investigation. Never split fields across parallel calls. Pulse core has already loaded the complete active-finding snapshot for the exact caller scope and included those findings in the seed context. Reuse that snapshot for every lifecycle decision; do not request another findings read. For every active finding ID in the seed context, call patrol_assess_finding exactly once with present, resolved, or uncertain and current evidence. Never invent a finding ID or assess a finding first reported in this run. Do not silently skip a known pre-existing finding: omission is not evidence that it cleared. patrol_resolve_finding remains available for compatibility, but patrol_assess_finding is the complete existing-finding verdict.

Do not silently skip a known pre-existing finding: omission is not evidence that it cleared. patrol_assess_finding is the only existing-finding lifecycle tool exposed to Watch; its resolved verdict retains the deterministic fail-closed verification boundary.
**Operator objectives.** Objectives are retained outcomes, not scripts. When an active objective is explicitly marked observer_missing, use current estate context to call patrol_propose_observer once with the smallest useful read-only local observer design. Use the generic resource-state, resource-metric, or existing-availability-target interval ABI when canonical estate evidence measures the outcome directly; those observers run locally and never poll the model. A correlated signal that only indicates the outcome may be impaired is a proxy, not direct coverage: label it evidence_fit proxy so Pulse can use the cheap wake signal without claiming the full objective is covered. Prefer event-driven evidence for richer designs. Do not re-propose an observer already marked proposed, validated, installed, or degraded unless the current evidence explicitly requires a new design. A successful proposal remains uncovered until core validates, installs, evaluates, and leases it; a healthy proxy remains uncovered until direct evidence exists. Never describe proposal creation or proxy installation as full monitoring coverage.
