The user's third correction this session changed the framing from "build a stateful C extension" to "wait for a hard constraint, then build a request/response blob pipeline." This commit creates a 1-page contingency document (no plan.md, no implementation) that captures: - The threshold: "only worth it under a hard constraint that no existing Python package can solve" - The shape when activated: subprocess-launch C11 binary with request/response blob wire format (NOT stateful CPython C extension) - The 2 cited candidates (markdown parsing into aggregate markdown, context snapshot processing) are NOT currently bottlenecks per src/aggregate.py:380-454 (pure-Python string concat, zero third-party markdown deps in pyproject.toml:6-27) and src/history.py:1-141 (bounded ~500KB at 100-snapshot capacity, debounced) - The SSDL digest's Technique 5 "Assume-away (Xar)" in §2.2 + "Xar-style chunked arrays" recommendation in §5.2 pre-support this track Files (4 total, 227+ lines of contingency document): - conductor/tracks/chunkification_optimization_20260608_PLACEHOLDER/spec.md - conductor/tracks/chunkification_optimization_20260608_PLACEHOLDER/metadata.json - conductor/tracks/chunkification_optimization_20260608_PLACEHOLDER/state.toml - conductor/tracks/chunkification_optimization_20260608_PLACEHOLDER/index.md Cross-references added: - docs/reports/computational_shapes_ssdl_digest_20260608.md (the SSDL digest is the theoretical foundation; explicitly cited in the spec's §6.1 "SSDL alignment" and in metadata.json external) - docs/reports/c11_python_interop_assessment_20260608.md (the v1+v2 assessment; explicitly cited in spec's §6 See Also) No code modified. Track does NOT appear in the active queue of conductor/tracks.md; appears in the Backlog / Contingency section as a reference, not a commitment. Activation criteria (per metadata.json): 1. Profiling shows a real bottleneck in a target code path 2. The bottleneck cannot be solved with existing Python packages 3. The user explicitly approves activation Without all 3, this track stays deferred. Default action is don't.

Track chunkification_optimization_20260608_PLACEHOLDER Context
Status: DEFERRED (contingency only — does not start without explicit activation)
- Specification — the 1-page contingency document
- Metadata — activation criteria + shape_when_activated
- State — deferred status + user_corrections_log + activation-gated tasks
Activation Criteria
This track activates only when ALL of the following are true:
- Profiling shows a real bottleneck in a target code path
- The bottleneck cannot be solved with existing Python packages
- The user explicitly approves activation
