The documentation half of Phase 11a (website#177, Module-uo#22). Three files,
each carrying one obligation from 6.0b's Phase 11a row.
**MODULE_API.md -> 1.8.0.** A seventh audience ceiling, `admin`, as a child of
`staff`. One addition, no removal, so minor -- every declaration valid under
1.7.0 is valid now and no stored value changes. 2.4's ceiling bullet now names
seven values rather than six, and says the thing a module author actually needs:
`admin` is the ONLY pair in the whole lattice with real containment, so
`permits('staff','admin')` holds and it is the only place `permits` is true
between two values below `authenticated`.
Also corrects two 2.3 rows that were stale rather than wrong: `ctx.inbox.push`
has not thrown since Phase 7, and both members now name the consumer that
actually calls them.
**modules/uo/API.md gains 5**, the full trigger catalogue -- which 6.0b asked for
in as many words ("the full trigger catalogue, its audiences and its ceilings,
not one entry"). The 24 triggers grouped by ceiling with the reason for each
ceiling; the four rows that deliberately do NOT ship with their recorded reasons;
the two that need a patch tier or a v5 overlay; the three things a rule cannot
express and are therefore done in the mapper; the three registered audiences; and
the ingest ORDERING, which is load-bearing rather than incidental.
**BACKEND_DESIGN.md -- the news publish path.** It described a direct
`pushDispatch.publish('news.post', ...)` from the create/publish-post path. That
call is gone: it is an emit through the engagement engine now, so news push rides
a rule, and core seeds that rule disabled. The note says so as an operator-visible
upgrade step, names the separate one-shot settings key and states what did NOT
change -- the announce legs and the post hooks still fire exactly as they did.

Phase 4 slice 4. BACKEND_DESIGN.md had never been de-UO'd: Phase 3 rewrote core's
code and README, but §5.2's identifier check reads code, not prose, so nothing
ever looked at the design document. It still described 27 shard_* tables, 20 UO
route rows and the shard visibility ladder as core's, a phase after core stopped
being able to serve any of them.
Moved, text unchanged:
BACKEND_DESIGN §3 six shard_* schema sections (226 lines) → modules/uo/SCHEMA.md
BACKEND_DESIGN §4 13 public + 7 admin UO route rows → modules/uo/API.md
BACKEND_DESIGN §6.5 the audience ladder (70 lines) → modules/uo/API.md §4
Core keeps the seam and gains the eight /admin/modules routes it had never
documented. §6.5 becomes "Module-owned audience boundaries": core's security
boundary ends at authentication, roles and the session, and a module that serves
game data brings its own.
Also fixed on the way: users.router.js was still listed as 15 routes (it is 9 —
six went to the extension slot), and the push section still promised
config/shardStreams.js "moves out with it" four slices after it left.
The acceptance table now carries results. Criterion 2 was proved for real against
module-uo v0.3.0 on an empty database, which turned up the uninstall ordering
defect fixed in website#146.
AI disclosure: this contribution was AI-assisted (Claude Code).
