Implements architectural enforcement to prevent framework fade (voluntary
compliance failures). This addresses Case Study #27028 where AI skipped
session-init.js despite explicit CRITICAL warnings while implementing
anti-fade enforcement mechanisms.
## New Components
### Hook Validators (scripts/hook-validators/)
- validate-file-edit.js: Pre-Edit enforcement (CSP, conflicts, boundaries)
- validate-file-write.js: Pre-Write enforcement (overwrites, boundaries)
- check-token-checkpoint.js: Prevents checkpoint fade at 50k/100k/150k
### Documentation
- CONTINUOUS_ENFORCEMENT_ARCHITECTURE.md: Technical architecture
- BOOTSTRAPPING_SOLUTION.md: Solves auto-run session-init problem
- PRE_APPROVED_COMMANDS.md: Extracted from CLAUDE.md (context reduction)
- Case Study #27028: Framework fade during anti-fade implementation
### Session Initialization Enhancement
- scripts/session-init.js: Added Section 8 (Hook Architecture Status)
- Reports hook validator installation and pre-approved commands
### CLAUDE.md Reduction (Not Committed - .gitignored)
- Reduced from 235 lines to 86 lines (63% reduction)
- Philosophy: "If it can be enforced in code, it should not be documented"
## Key Findings
Case Study #27028 proved documentation-based governance fundamentally
cannot work. AI skipped session-init.js despite "⚠️ CRITICAL" warning
while actively implementing anti-fade enforcement. This validates the
thesis that architectural enforcement (code that runs automatically)
is the only viable solution.
## Next Steps
Bootstrapping solution required: session-init.js needs automatic
invocation on continued sessions. Without this, framework fade will
recur. Options documented in BOOTSTRAPPING_SOLUTION.md.
