# ADR-0.10.0-obpi-runtime-surface: OBPI Runtime Surfaces

## Intent

gzkit already has OBPI receipts, audit semantics, and ledger-first status behavior,
but operators still lack first-class OBPI runtime surfaces for querying,
reconciling, and proving OBPI progress directly. AirlineOps parity work now
depends on those missing surfaces: deferred pipeline and lifecycle hooks assume a
clear OBPI-native runtime contract rather than ADR-only closeout flows and
manual brief inspection.

## Decision

Implement OBPI runtime surfaces as a three-unit pre-release track:

1. **Runtime Contract**: Define the OBPI state model, derived-status semantics,
   REQ-proof contract, and compatibility boundaries with existing ADR-first
   lifecycle behavior (`OBPI-0.10.0-01`).
2. **Query + Reconcile Surfaces**: Add OBPI-native operator commands for
   listing, status inspection, and deterministic reconciliation at OBPI
   granularity while preserving existing receipt and validation flows
   (`OBPI-0.10.0-02`).
3. **Proof + Lifecycle Integration**: Connect OBPI runtime state to REQ proof,
   closeout guidance, and operator migration so deferred AirlineOps pipeline
   parity work has a stable gzkit-native foundation (`OBPI-0.10.0-03`).

This ADR remains ledger-first and repository-local. It does not introduce a
separate planner database or weaken human attestation rules. Execution-memory
graph integration remains a declared dependency and should be consumed through
compatibility seams rather than replaced with ad hoc runtime state.

## Consequences

### Positive

- OBPI lifecycle work gets a single governing ADR instead of being split across
  status, receipt, and parity tranches.
- Deferred AirlineOps pipeline parity can target a concrete gzkit runtime
  surface instead of reusing ADR-only workflows.
- REQ-level proof and OBPI reconciliation can become deterministic operator
  surfaces rather than document-only ceremony steps.

### Negative

- Adds another heavy-lane ADR with multiple CLI and lifecycle seams to keep
  coherent.
- Some target behavior depends on backlog prerequisites such as
  `ADR-pool.execution-memory-graph`, so sequencing discipline remains necessary.

## Migration Note

As of 2026-03-12, the runtime surfaces introduced here are consumed through the
ADR-0.11.0 OBPI pipeline. Operator guidance that once emphasized ADR-only
closeout flows or manual post-ceremony habits is superseded by the current
sequence:

1. verify
2. present evidence / attestation when required
3. guarded `git sync`
4. final OBPI completion accounting
5. ADR closeout later

Use `docs/user/concepts/workflow.md`, `docs/user/concepts/lifecycle.md`, and
`docs/user/runbook.md` as the active operator references.
