Extract readModifyWriteStateMd's post-sync preservation block into a pure,
field-classification-table-driven applyStatePreservation in the STATE.md
Transition Module. progress / status / stopped_at now join current_phase_name
as table-governed (getFieldClassification), so a preservation-policy change is
a one-row table edit instead of a per-call-site patch.
This realizes the consolidation ADR-1769 / CONTEXT.md already claimed shipped
('Absorbs readModifyWriteStateMd post-sync preservation block') and routes the
#1264 preservation policy through the single field-classification table — the
bug class is now structurally guarded by the table, not just the call-site
shouldResync flag.
Behavior is byte-identical to the pre-amendment inline block (Hyrum-safe — the
15 readModifyWriteStateMd callers' observable preservation is unchanged):
- state/frontmatter/transition + bug regression suite: 847 pass
- phase/milestone/verify (other RMW consumers): 582 pass
- codex (gpt-5.5/high) adversarial review: CLEAN (58,564-case equiv sweep)
ADR-1769 amendment appended documenting #1796.
Closes#1796
