 - `hasRectificationSession` 只断言“存在任意校正 Session”，不区分 draft / collecting / candidate_ready / candidate_accepted / confirmed / closed，因此已完成会话始终被当作可继续，且没有服务端 Case 状态可被测试断言。
 - `sessions.find(sessionType === "birth_time_rectification")` 取客户端数组第一条，既不保证精确 sessionId，也不校验 Case 绑定；排序、缓存或刷新差异都会改变打开哪条记录。
 - 旧测试只覆盖“能找到一条校正 Session”的客户端行为，没有服务端 Case 状态机、没有“点击指定 Session 必须精确恢复”的契约、没有并发/双击/多标签幂等断言，也没有 legacy→V9 一次性回填的数据库级验证，因此这些缺陷在回归中被遗漏。

+## BUG-163 | V9 红队审查：引擎适配器契约不匹配 + accept 重放幂等顺序错误
+
+- 状态：resolved（已修复；真实 PostgreSQL 17 与真实 Python 引擎双重实证）
+- 首次发现：2026-08-11（红队审查 `60e2ce4f..724fb64c`）
+- 最近更新：2026-08-11
+- 影响面：V9 候选比较管线（compare-candidates / read-diagnostics）、候选采用重放幂等、确认重放返回字段
+- 现象：
+  1. `rectification-compare-candidates` 在生产面对真实 Python 引擎必然失败：前端 `engine-client.ts` 假设 `/api/rectification/v5/score` 返回 `rank/tied_minute_count/representative_time/confidence/margin_percent/selection_allowed/confirmation_allowed`，实际引擎只返回 `candidate_scores:[{time,score,supporting_event_ids,conflicting_event_ids}]`（`scripts/rectification/api_service.py:score_candidates`，已用真实 HTTP 请求实证）；同时 V9 evidence kind/domain（`education_start/career_entry/promotion/relationship_commitment/finance_gain` 等）直接透传给引擎，而引擎 `SCOREABLE_EVENT_KINDS` 只有 `education_milestone/relocation/relationship_start|change/career_change/finance_change/self_health_event(health_pressure)`，几乎全部 400。结果：所有候选比较必然 `engine_no_candidates` 或 `engine_http_error`，V9 无法产出任何候选。
+  2. `accept_agentic_rectification_candidate_for_case` 的幂等重放分支位于 profile 基线校验**之后**；第一次 accept 写入 `active_birth_time` 后，基线快照与 profile 必然分歧，重放/双击/断线重试返回 `candidate_profile_changed` 而不是 `idempotent=true`（旧 `accept_agentic_rectification_candidate` 是先重放后校验，语义回归）。
+  3. `confirm_agentic_rectification_birth_time` 幂等分支在 `v_result` 载入前引用 `v_result.id`，confirmed 重放响应的 `result_id` 恒为 null。
+- 触发条件：任何进入 compare-candidates 的真实运行；accept 成功后同一候选再次 accept；confirmed 后同一 confirm 重放。
+- 根因：
+  - 新增 `engine-client.ts` 从未与真实引擎做契约测试（既有测试全部 mock `runV9CandidateScore`，未覆盖真实响应形状）；V9 evidence 领域模型与引擎粗粒度评分词汇之间缺少 kind/domain 翻译层。
+  - accept/confirm RPC 的重放语义被基线保护逻辑错误地前置/后置，未对齐旧实现的先重放后校验顺序。
+- 修复：
+  1. `engine-client.ts` 对齐真实引擎契约：新增 `toEngineScoreableEvent` kind/domain 翻译（education_*→education_milestone、career_*→career_change、relationship_start/commitment→relationship_start、relationship_separation→relationship_change、relocation→relocation、finance_*→finance_change、self_health_event→health_pressure；family/other 留在账本但不再进引擎）；`readCandidates` 由 `time+score` 按分数降序推导 rank、同分 tied_minute_count、相对支持度归一化；`representative_time`=top1；`selection_allowed`=有候选；`confirmation_allowed` 只来自引擎 `can_confirm_exact_minute`（真实引擎当前为 false，confirm 门诚实关闭）；`margin_percent` 取自 diagnostics；confidence 由 margin+retention 推导；无 scorable 事件/无候选时 fail-closed（`no_scorable_evidence`/`engine_no_candidates`）。
+  2. `20260813010000_agentic_rectification_v9_agent_api.sql`：accept 重放分支移到 profile 基线校验之前，重放分支校验 profile 与已采用时间一致（对齐旧语义）；confirm 幂等分支补 `select id into v_result.id`，`result_id` 不再为 null。
+  3. 移除 `rectification-v9-tools.ts` compare-candidates 中双分支同 throw 的死代码。
+- 验证（真实执行，非 mock）：
+  - 本机安装 PostgreSQL 17（brew），按 `deploy/postgres/001-bootstrap-roles.sh` 建角色，从空库全量应用 95 个迁移 ×2（second run 95 already applied，`--check` exit 0），含两个 V9 迁移。
+  - 真实 SQL 行为：open homepage create/resume、requestId 幂等、session 精确恢复、跨用户 404、new 冲突、profile_incomplete、evidence quote grounding/idempotent/confirm/revision lineage、terminal 只读、accept→accepted + 重放 idempotent=true（修复后）、confirm gate=false blocked + gate=true 且 consent 原文匹配 → confirmed + 重放 idempotent + `result_id` 非空、指纹缓存复用、profile 变更 → needs_rebaseline + 候选 invalidated、legacy backfill（confirmed/candidate_accepted/superseded/abandoned 分布、results_mapped=3、重跑 cases_created=0、verify 0 conflict/0 orphan）、RLS service_role-only 均实证通过。
+  - 真实 Python 引擎：`scripts/jyotish_api_server.py` 启动后，修复后 `engine-client` 直连 `/api/rectification/v5/score` + `/v5/diagnostics` 成功产出候选（rank/relative_support/tied）、family_event 被排除、`confirmation_allowed=false`、diagnostics 键完整映射。
+  - 新增 `rectification-v9-engine-contract.test.ts`（9 项，含真实引擎响应形状 fixture）与 migration 顺序静态回归 1 项；v9 聚焦 33+108 全部通过；全量 `npm test` 1256（1232 pass / 18 Docker ENOENT 环境失败，与基线 6d7a9a97 同因，worktree 实证）；`tsc --noEmit` 仅剩 6 个既有未触碰测试文件错误；ESLint 0 error；`next build` 通过；`git diff --check` 通过。
+- 防复发：引擎适配器必须有真实响应形状的契约测试；新增任何映射层必须对照 `scripts/rectification/contracts.py:SCOREABLE_EVENT_KINDS`；RPC 重放/幂等语义以“先重放后校验、重放校验已落库状态”为唯一实现顺序；迁移修改必须在真实 PostgreSQL 上从空库全量应用并重跑。
+- 相关记录：BUG-162、BUG-112
+- 修复版本：本地 staging 候选（未 push / deploy）
