Tranché par la cascade plutôt qu'en attendant une réponse : le niveau 3 (ORM) ne
dit rien des inbox, le niveau 2 non plus — `@ng-org/web` n'expose aucune méthode
contenant « inbox » et la session n'en publie aucune. C'est donc le modèle du
moteur qui décide, et il dit DEUX : un site porte une inbox sur son repo de store
public et une autre sur son protégé (`engine/verifier/src/site.rs:127-152`), les
seuls `AddInboxCap` du moteur, `new_store_default` n'en posant une que
`if !private`. Elles sont adressées séparément jusque dans les enregistrements de
contact, qui choisissent leur prédicat selon le profil visé — `ng:site_inbox` pour
un profil public, `ng:protected_inbox` sinon
(`engine/verifier/src/inbox_processor.rs:787,823-824`).
`userInbox(id)` en exposait une : une cardinalité que cette bibliothèque avait
inventée, et que le nom `walletInbox` avait contribué à masquer. Elle prend
désormais le scope, et le store PRIVÉ n'en a pas — d'où `InboxScope` plutôt que
`Scope` : demander l'inbox privée n'est pas une recherche qui ne rend rien, c'est
une question sans référent dans le modèle, et le type l'interdit.
`myInboxes` énumère les deux, `isOwnInbox` reconnaît les deux. Le shim garde un
triple par (user, scope).

La correction de nomenclature du 2026-07-30 — en amont un *wallet* n'est qu'un
trousseau, ce qui possède des stores est un **user** (un *site*) — s'était faite
à la main. `walletInbox` y a échappé et a vécu des semaines, en faisant des
dégâts : le nom rendait « une inbox par wallet » évident, masquant qu'un user en
a **deux** en amont (repos de store public et protected, les deux seuls
`AddInboxCap` du moteur). Une discipline appliquée à la main en oublie un ; un
test non.
D'où `test/vocabulary.test.ts` : tout nom publié est bâti sur des mots que la
CIBLE emploie — vérifiés dans `nextgraph-rs` — ou porte un marqueur disant
POURQUOI il n'existe qu'ici (`virtual`, `physical`, `shim`, `emulated`,
`polyfill`), ce qui dit aussi quand il disparaît. Un échec n'est pas « renommer
pour faire passer le test », c'est une question : la cible a-t-elle un mot pour
ça ? la chose n'existe-t-elle qu'ici ? le mot est-il vraiment de la glue ?
Ce que le test a trouvé, et les réponses :
- `walletInbox` → `userInbox`, avec l'écart de cardinalité écrit noir sur blanc
plutôt que caché par le nom.
- `accounts` / `AccountRecord` / `AccountStorage` → `virtualUsers` /
`VirtualUserRecord` / `VirtualUserStorage`, module `accounts.ts` →
`virtual-users.ts`. « account » n'est pas de la cible : c'est notre mot pour
l'utilisateur virtuel, et le marqueur le dit désormais.
- `readModel` → la fonction `readUnion`, exposée directement. « model » n'était
ni de la cible ni de la glue, et le namespace ne tenait qu'une fonction.
- Le reste était du vocabulaire légitime à déclarer (`subject`, `base`,
`schema`, `connected`, le modèle réactif de l'ORM).
Corrigé au passage, sur signalement du contrat interne : l'en-tête d'`open-repo`
justifiait son correctif par un mécanisme que le source contredit. Un repo absent
de `self.repos` lève bien `RepoNotFound`
(`engine/verifier/src/request_processor.rs:264,269`). Les 0 lignes observées
viennent d'ailleurs — `Verifier::load` repeuple `self.repos` depuis le stockage
sur un profil persistant (`verifier.rs:535-560`), et notre propre `readDoc`
attrape toute erreur et rend `[]`. Le correctif est bon, le diagnostic écrit à
côté ne l'était pas.

Les deux contrats et la doctrine portent des centaines de citations `file:line`
vers `src/`. Le rangement par destin les périmait en bloc — 208 reprises (45
chemins `src/x.ts`, 163 mentions nues). Sans ça la réorganisation pourrissait
l'instrument même qui tient la discipline qu'elle sert.
Et un défaut relevé par le contrat interne, vérifié : `ng-proxy` fabriquait un
membre `login`. `@ng-org/web` n'expose aucune méthode de ce nom — zéro
occurrence dans les déclarations installées comme dans `sdk/js/lib-wasm/src/lib.rs`
— mais le proxy répondait une fonction au lieu d'`undefined`, laquelle plantait
à l'appel. C'était le seul endroit où ce wrapper ajoutait à la surface du SDK,
contre son propre en-tête.

Fifteen findings, all verified before acting. The ones that mattered:
- Corrections added without updating what they corrected. §5's table still
said a cap-less NURI is one "without :k:", two hundred lines after §4
established the discriminant is `r:`. Same shape of defect in the P1a
report, which kept the sentence "it is the owner's keyring, upstream the
keyring is the wallet" — the exact sentence §4quater declares wrong, and the
one that produced a global in-memory keyring.
- A wrong source citation: RootCapRefresh/BranchCapRefresh live in
verifier/src/commits/mod.rs, not repo/src/commit.rs, and are no-op stubs.
- Documentation describing deleted code: isolation.ts, discovery.readIndex,
the global index, and an acceptance test that was dropped with discovery.
- The P1a implementation report had aged into being wrong in four places
(caps not persisted, inbox processing not started, plain string types, the
:k: segment). It is dated, so it now carries a header saying what later lots
overtook, rather than being rewritten.
- vision.md stated "a document's data is stored encrypted" in the present
tense. That is the target; here the cap value is the constant OK and nothing
is encrypted. Said plainly now.
- Prose left mangled by an earlier mechanical find-and-replace, in four places
I had claimed were repaired.
Also: reach.ts and connect.ts had no home in the permanent docs — the boundary
and the connection sequence are now described in simulation.md, not only in a
brief.
Two batches, verified against nextgraph-rs throughout.
P1a — the capability surface. Reading was an ACL (Map<doc, Set<principal>>),
the exact inversion of key possession. It is now possession: `capFor(nuri)` is
the only question, there is no principal parameter anywhere, and nothing turns
a bare reference into a cap. Sharing is `shareCap(cap, toInbox)`, a Link
deposit; receiving needs no operation. `Nuri` and `ReadCap` are template
literal types, so passing a bare reference where a cap belongs is a compile
error, with runtime guards behind it for JavaScript callers.
The virtual user boundary. Every access function is now confined to the
connected user, through two rules on one criterion (possession), implemented in
two places so a lapse in either is caught by the other: authorization at the
passage points, and "do not even attempt" at the callers. The polyfill's own
machinery moved to physical.ts — unguarded, never exported — which replaced an
exemption list: the machinery no longer gets waved through the guard, it calls
something the guard never saw.
Removed, as emulating capabilities the target does not have:
- discovery.ts and its global index. There is no discovery in NextGraph; you
follow links. It also pooled user data across wallets.
- the cross-account fan-out (listEntityDocs, resolveReadGraphs, allAccounts,
loadShim), which was cross-user enumeration by construction.
- resolveInboxAnchor, a single inbox common to every user.
Caps are now stored where NextGraph stores them, and read back rather than
recomputed: AddRepo on the store's Store branch for documents a user creates,
AddLink on its User branch for caps received. Inboxes belong to someone — the
user's own, plus one per document — and connecting a user drains them all;
that is the library's job, not the app's.
Corrections worth recording: a ReadCap is `r:`, not `:k:` (reported by
NextGraph's developer, verified in BlockRef::readcap_nuri); received caps DO
have a register (AddLink), contrary to what this repo's notes claimed; and
"wallet" upstream means keyring — what owns three stores is a user, so the
vocabulary follows.
The cap value is the constant OK: the only question the emulation answers is
whether a cap is held. P1b replaces that one constant with a real key.
After this the shape is right and the isolation is still fake. Nothing here may
be described as anonymous or private.
Append to the probe section: the anchorless GRAPH ?g SCAN spans every named graph
(O(wallet) union — the reason reads are per-doc anchored, preserved) is distinct
from a constant anchored GRAPH <D> WRITE, which round-trips to the same repo (no
phantom graph, verified by packages/client/e2e/). Re-verify via the harness if the
broker version changes.

Align the polyfill's surface and docs with the verified NextGraph reality and
remove application-level concepts:
- Identity is an ID, not a username: AccountRecord.id, shim predicate shim:id,
normalizeId; accounts core becomes IdentityStore (set/clear/get) — the faux
login/logout framing is gone (identity is set at wallet-import time).
- Relationship/connection is an application concept, not a platform primitive
(NextGraph has no bilateral-connection primitive: grantee is unpersisted
scaffolding, cap-send is unimplemented). Remove connections.ts; caps exposes
only a directed grantRead(doc, granteeId) + a read-only protectedDocsOf(owner).
Delete the now-dead isolation.ts social-visibility axis.
- Inbox docs: NextGraph has no separate curator — the recipient's own verifier
unseals and applies each queued sealed message inline (process_inbox);
inbox_post_link is a proposed/future API. Stop attributing the emulated
curator to the platform.
- Read isolation reframed around the outcome: no cap -> empty union read;
targeted read of an unheld repo -> RepoNotFound; cap introspection
(canRead/governsRead) is emulation-only with no NextGraph API behind it.
- read-model.md corrected: the listing path is per-doc ANCHORED default-graph
queries, never the anchorless GRAPH ?g union (that is O(wallet)); the probe
section no longer claims the opposite.
- README recap table restructured (target | current NextGraph status | current
emulation); INDEX_ACCOUNT documented as reservedAccount("index") in the
sentinel namespace; de-domained generic-layer comments; softened tone.
Consumer application (Festipod) rewired separately to own the relationship
concept and feed the lib an id. Lib gates: bun test 83 pass / 0 fail, tsc clean.

README: new section with a recap table (11 rows) — for each emulated behavior:
what the consumer sees (SDK-shaped API), how it's emulated on one shared wallet,
the real NextGraph target, and the lib-only migration. Makes "emulated ≠ real,
migration is a lib-only swap" explicit.
simulation.md: opening banner that EVERYTHING in the file is emulation pending
real NextGraph; corrected the stale read-path paragraph (per-doc anchored, never
an anchorless union-scan). read-model.md: reactivity bullet aligned to per-doc.

The anchorless union query (`GRAPH ?g`) scanned EVERY named graph in the local
store (the whole shared physical wallet) → O(wallet size), slow/timeouts on a
bloated wallet. Rewrite `readUnion` to run ONE ANCHORED `sparql_query` per by-need
doc (in parallel, per-doc tolerant): an anchored query is restricted to that
repo's graph, so it is O(1) per doc, INDEPENDENT of physical-wallet size. Keep the
ReadCap defense-in-depth gate.
docs/simulation.md: new "Physical wallet vs virtual wallet" section — the physical
shared wallet is a substrate that accumulates and must NEVER be enumerated/scanned;
each user's VIRTUAL wallet (the account's scope index in the shim) is the bounded
thing you enumerate ("list my documents"), then read those docs per-doc anchored.
read-model.md / nextgraph-current-state.md updated to the per-doc anchored rule.

- read-model.ts `readUnion` now applies the emulated ReadCap gate (drops a
subject when its doc is governsRead && !canRead for the current identity), so
per-scope isolation holds by construction AND by filter.
- store-registry: `listMyEntityDocs(username, scope)` (current account only) vs
the all-accounts `listEntityDocs` fallback (documented as the enumeration to
avoid on the read path).
- docs: nextgraph-current-state / read-model — corrected to the SOURCE-VERIFIED
reality that the JS SDK exposes NO open/sync-by-cap primitive
(load_repo_from_read_cap is pub(crate)); in the mono-wallet all repos are
already local (same session), so the anchorless union spans them with no open
step. simulation.md: listEntityDocs+useShape({graphs}) is a fallback, not the
read path.

Proven against the real broker (probe): opening docs then a single anchorless
`sparql_query` with a `GRAPH ?g { ... }` body reads the LOCAL UNION of all synced
named graphs — the fast, hang-free replacement for the reactive-ORM per-document
fan-out (which aborted on any unsynced/fresh repo → 75s never-fires). New
`read-model.ts` (readUnion) exposes this; there is no reactive union query, so
listing is one-shot and consumers re-query on change. docs/read-model.md refined
with the probe finding (an explicit `GRAPH ?g` body iterates all named graphs
regardless of the anchor; the anchor only bounds the default graph). 93 tests
pass; tsc rc=0.

Source-verified against nextgraph-rs:
- nextgraph-current-state.md: NextGraph keeps ONE local oxigraph store per
session; each synced repo is a named graph. sparql_query with NO anchor
(UserSite/None) queries the UNION of all synced graphs (set_default_graph_as
_union); with an anchor it is restricted to one repo. Union is read-only
(updates need a doc anchor). No reactive SPARQL (one-shot). Root cause of the
ORM fan-out hang: orm_start_graph opens every graph in scope; a fresh/unsynced
per-entity doc → RepoNotFound aborts the subscription → the 75s never-fires.
- read-model.md (new): the read model — events via the global index (the one
enumeration hack); everything else by following a shared graph, opened/synced,
then listed via a single anchorless union sparql_query (never the ORM per-doc
fan-out); reactivity via re-query on a doc_subscribe/ORM change signal. Plus
the minimal broker probe to confirm the union behavior.
