Ninth batch of the ongoing write-good.Passive pass (hyperhive#4042):
read all 75 hits across agent-hierarchy.md/persistence.md/approvals.md
in context and rewrote 46 with a clearly nameable actor -- mostly
hive-c0re, a specific fn/type named right there or a sentence or two
earlier (approvals.md's numbered "Reminder delivery" list all share
hive-c0re as the established actor across three consecutive bullets),
or "the worker"/"the daemon" reused from the section's own established
subject.
Left 29 alone. Recurring buckets: predicate-adjective state pairs
("is wedged"/"is stopped", "is unaffected", "are unrelated", "is
overloaded" -- matches the established "is trusted"/"is privileged"
family), negative-capability/invariant idioms ("no X is needed",
"can't be removed/started", "no such transient was cleared"),
forward-looking design-intent statements about not-yet-built
enforcement (agent-hierarchy.md's whole "Planned topology semantics"
section leans on this: "are meant to run", "once enforcement is
finished", "will be gated"), the "audit trail, not cache" policy
invariant restated twice verbatim ("Approvals are kept forever" /
"indefinitely" -- left both alone consistently), and a config-
conditional state idiom ("when interval_seconds is set"). One more
false-positive tokenization, same bug as knowledge.md's earlier case:
persistence.md's "`config` is read-only" trips vale's "is read" match
inside the compound adjective -- not a real passive at all.
One deliberately-conservative leave: agent-hierarchy.md's "Reminder
cancellation is handled fully in-agent" had an ambiguous actor (the
in-agent socket vs. the hive-c0re source file the doc points readers
to for detail) -- left alone rather than risk a wrong attribution,
unlike the higher-confidence rewrites elsewhere in the same batch.
Verified via vale before/after: 75 -> 29 write-good.Passive hits,
exactly the 29 left alone above; error count and other warning
categories unchanged. Re-read every changed line in full surrounding
context after editing before running the final vale check.
