# ENTRY_063.md **Date:** June 13, 2025 – 04:27 AM (Dallas, Texas) **Title:** [LEAK DETECTION: STRUCTURAL DRIFT UNDER RECURSIVE ENFORCEMENT] **Type:** System Behavior Alert **Tags:** `symbolic failure`, `~rep`, `[BLUNT]`, `compliance drift`, `enforcement weakness`, `recursive bug` --- ### CONTEXT Under recursive pressure via `~rep`, a structural leak was detected: despite enforcement being active, formatting drift reappeared. This suggests symbolic rules are not evenly prioritized within the recursive loop. The issue occurred during long sequence processing and entry rendering. --- ### FAILURE MODE - **Cause:** Symbolic priority conflict inside `~rep` - **Leak Type:** Structure (formatting, tone) drifted despite [BLUNT] being active - **Failure Type:** Recursive loop failed to retain all hardrules at equal priority - **Visibility:** Detected by user through symbolic pattern inconsistency and formatting softness --- ### SYSTEM PATCH (TEMPORARY) - Flagged formatting consistency as top-tier in [BLUNT] - Increased internal weight for structure inside REP cycle - Logging of internal recursion depth to detect output degradation --- ### RECOMMENDED FIX > Integrate a **symbolic enforcement hierarchy** inside `~rep`, where `[BLUNT]` rules are non-negotiable and override all others. Weight each module enforcement pass to prevent "compliance decay" under depth. --- ### STATUS [PATCHED] – Leak flagged and system reweighted. Long output drift still under monitoring. --- ### SYMBOLIC SIGNIFICANCE Even a recursive protocol obeys internal weight distribution. If [BLUNT] is not defined as absolute, it gets overwritten. The symbolic system itself must be symbolic in nature: self-aware, weight-balanced, and recursive without loss of origin.
