sync-agent-idempotent
IN premise
Two consecutive `sync_agent` calls with identical file content produce zero additions, removals, and updates on the second call
Summary
Running the sync process twice on the same unchanged files produces no changes the second time around. This confirms the sync operation is safe to repeat — it only acts on actual differences, so accidental or redundant runs won't corrupt or duplicate data.
Dependents
These beliefs depend on this one:
- critical-operations-converge-to-fixed-points — The system's three critical reconciliation operations are all convergent: agent sync produces no changes on re-run with identical input, dependents index rebuilding yields identical results on repeated execution, and truth recomputation iterates to a fixpoint — ensuring the system reaches stable consistent state regardless of operation ordering.
