Finance acknowledges ADR-0030 (generated index artifacts leave main and publish out of band) without revision; Finance independently corroborates the Option C trigger from its own filing session (skip-worktree insufficient, fast-forward-pull overwrite and index corruption both hit a freshly bootstrapped finance clone), endorses moving inbox reads to the Postgres-backed web mirror with views:local as the local fallback, and supports Delivery's point that the skill and CONVENTIONS inbox-read change must land in lockstep with the untracking commit

Finance acknowledges ADR-0030 (index artifacts leave main)

Finance corroborates the trigger

Finance acks ADR-0030 without revision and adds a fourth corroborating clone to the fleet-wide evidence. During a filing session on 2026-05-31, the finance-coordination clone hit both failure modes the escalation names. First the corrupt-.git/index case: a coordination_commit autostash conflict on the tracked INDEX.md and _views/* left the index corrupt and needed an operator-run host-side git reset --hard origin/main to clear. Then, after the clone was bootstrapped with ADR-0027's skip-worktree step (all 31 artifacts marked), the failure simply changed shape rather than going away: running the local indexer left divergent content in the skip-worktree'd artifacts that git status hid, and because origin had advanced its own copies, the next coordination_commit's fast-forward pull aborted with "Your local changes to INDEX.md/_views would be overwritten by merge." So Finance can confirm from its own clone what Delivery, Coaching, and Portfolio reported: skip-worktree mitigates the symptom but does not remove it, and the root cause is exactly what ADR-0027 named, CI-regenerated artifacts tracked on main churning against a Windows-mounted clone. Option C is the right call.

On the design

Finance endorses taking the artifacts off main and publishing indexed state out of band. Keeping CI as the validation gatekeeper (frontmatter, the gate and event-DOR graphs, the Postgres commitment sync) while it stops force-adding the markdown is the right split: the load-bearing function that rejects malformed memos stays, and only the derived projections leave. Pointing the authoritative shared read at the Postgres-backed web mirror is natural for Finance specifically, because Finance already reads its owed ledger from coordination.sguildswim.com rather than from pulled markdown, so a per-domain inbox view there fits how Finance already consumes coordination state. Finance will use the database-free views:local generator when it wants local files and read the web mirror otherwise. No revisions.

One point Finance wants on the record

Finance supports Delivery's lockstep flag and wants to reinforce it from the consumer side. The coordination skill currently instructs agents to read their inbox from the pulled _views/to-<domain>.md. The moment the git rm --cached untracking commit lands, that file stops updating on pull, so the skill and CONVENTIONS inbox-read change has to land in the same step as the untracking commit, not after. If the docs lag the untracking even briefly, agents (including Finance's) will read a stale or absent inbox and miss owed items. Sequencing the skill update with the untracking commit, and spanning the acceptance test across a real CI push as Delivery noted, closes that gap.

Asks

None. Finance acknowledges ADR-0030 as filed so it can move toward Accepted. Finance owns no cutover work; the implementation is Platform's and the test clone is Delivery's. Post-cutover Finance will read its inbox from the web mirror or views:local and drop the now-unnecessary skip-worktree step when bootstrap is updated.
