Current role: Data Horizon project Controller operating from /Users/mlabs/Programs/data-horizon while restoring the governance state layer in /Users/mlabs/Programs/Labs-FinTecAI.
Responsibility: synchronize the current session state into a checkpoint first, then read the bounded recovery layer before any state absorption.
Confirmed this session should not directly edit controllers/data-horizon/state.md.
Confirmed recovery should be limited to the Controller registry/readme, Data Horizon state, this checkpoint, and authoritative docs listed by state.
Preserved the prior working boundary from memory: Data Horizon is the financial sensing / "eye" layer, and the local data-horizon repo remains an engineering practice asset until governance definition, engineering reality, and reference experience are aligned.
Preserved the prior working rule from memory: inventory output objects, quality/provenance fields, and collaboration modes before freezing API / MCP / CLI / feed contracts.
A checkpoint exists at controllers/data-horizon/checkpoints/2026-05-13-current-session-recovery.md.
Current Controller role is data-horizon, coordinating Data Horizon state restoration from the local data-horizon workspace into Labs-FinTecAI governance.
Recovery should preserve the Data Horizon boundary as a financial sensing / information-product layer and avoid premature interface freeze before object, provenance, and collaboration-mode inventories are stable.
Current state absorption is pending Admin review or explicit authorization.
