§01 / DEFINITION · one_paragraph · verbatim
WHAT THIS IS
TOPO is a thin router MCP over GARBOARD+TICKLIST — situate, classify, load_plank, gap_report, next_actions — returning one terminal-typed next step. Callable on stdio; not an enforcement guarantee.

CALL/ENFORCE
stdio surface is callable. Hosts without hooks are not enforced.
§05 / LOOP · gates · duality
Approve ≠ activate.
classify → load → gap → next → human_gate holds — no auto-attest
situateclassifyloadgapnextgate
NEXT LIT
next_actions returns terminal from plank. Shared done_ids stay deterministic.
HUMAN_GATE HELD
terminal human_gate does not auto-attest. BELAY Type-1 may own the pause.
MCP required:false. Models may ignore tools. Hooks/skills first when relevant.
§06 / SURFACE · SURFACE · MCP stdio
SURFACE · MCP stdio
callable != enforced
Nine read-only tools. Names still carry garboard_* debt. Prefer documenting debt over silent rename claims.
garboard_situate
stack hints
Read path/signals; feed classify modifiers.
garboard_classify
shape pick
Keyword scores → project_type or needs_disambiguation.
garboard_load_plank
bind plank
Load plank; expose content_sha256.
garboard_gap_report
coverage gaps
Pure over plank + done_ids.
garboard_next_actions
terminal next
One next item id + terminal.
garboard_proof_status
honest status
Reads ghost evidence; scaffold != EG1.
garboard_list_shapes
enumerate
Shape roster from index.
garboard_describe_shape
shape detail
Describe one project type.
garboard_selftest
offline check
Local selftest surface.
§07 / TRUTH · IS / ISN'T · claim gate
