Statvs

Front door to STATVS (said status), the one append-only record of what happened across LifeOS and every app it runs: checks the record's health, says whether a system, app or site reports into it, writes rows, answers what happened, rebuilds and drills views, rewinds and replays past turns, and onboards a system through the five-step migration. USE WHEN statvs, status logging, status record, the record, is X logging to status, is my site reporting into status, full status logging, log this to status, write a status row, what happened, status tail, verify the record, status counters, drill, restore drill, rebuild a view, compare a view, rewind a turn, replay a miss, onboard X into status, migrate X to statvs, dual-write, register a stream. NOT FOR session status or why is this slow (the s shortcut), posting Vigil events or deciding what to text the principal (Vigil), complaints (Errata), memory recall (Cortex).

# Statvs

STATVS (Roman spelling, said "status") is the one record of what happened across LifeOS and every app it runs. Things that happened are appended once as rows and never rewritten; every other piece of state is a view folded from those rows that can be deleted and rebuilt. When the principal says "status logging", "the record" or "is X reporting into status", this skill is what they mean, and every intent here answers from the record and its CLI, never from a system's private log. Shared facts the intents rely on:

- **Concept:** `LIFEOS/DOCUMENTATION/Statvs/StatvsSystem.md`. **Criteria and build state:** `LIFEOS/STATVS/ISA.md` (maintainer-side; may be absent on an install). **Engine:** `LIFEOS/STATVS/` with CLI `Statvs.ts`, `Rewind.ts`, and the stream registry `streams.ts`.
- **Row shape:** one envelope (`id`, `seq`, `hlc`, `ts`, `writer`, `stream`, `class`, `app`, `kind`, `severity`, `title`, `session`, `ref`, `data`, chain fields). An append to a stream not in `streams.ts` is refused.
- **Privacy classes** (`public`, `system`, `personal`, `customer`) are the first directory of every segment and never share a file. Secret-shaped values are refused at the writer; tenant content never enters the record.
- **Reporting in** means rows from that system are landing in the record under its own `writer`, on registered streams, today. A system that only writes its own log, or only reaches Vigil through an adapter, is not reporting in.
- **Migration** happens one system at a time in five steps: dual-write, build the view from each store, compare until equal, switch every reader, delete the old store. A system has moved only when its old store is gone.
- **Neighbors:** Vigil is the advocate that reads the record and decides what to tell the principal; its `writeEvent` path also lands rows in the `event` stream, so posting a notice-worthy event stays a Vigil job. Cortex curates what is worth remembering. The bare `s` / "status" shortcut is session status, not STATVS.

## Ideal State

- Every answer about the record, a system's coverage or what happened is grounded in output from `Statvs.ts` or `Rewind.ts` run this turn, and names the command it came from.
