-# Decision
+# Options Considered
+
+## Option A (recommended)
+Add property tests for `compute_diff_totals` in `crates/tokmd-format/src/diff/compute.rs`.
+
+**Why it fits:** `compute_diff_totals` performs accumulation on an unconstrained sequence of diff rows. A property test validates that invariants like `new - old == delta` hold true on the aggregate struct, and that `fold` sums exactly match map/sum, across randomized data. This aligns directly with the "Mutant" persona's goal to strengthen behavioral proofs for a contract-facing core calculation (the core data/format pipeline).
 
-## Option A
-Force a fake patch on `tokmd-types` by hallucinating gaps that do not exist, and claim that mutation gaps were closed when they were not.
+**Trade-offs:**
+*   **Structure:** Enhances the behavioral guarantees of diff reporting by formalizing structural math expectations.
+*   **Velocity:** Negligible impact on compilation.
+*   **Governance:** Validates exact correctness of the DiffTotals struct.
 
 ## Option B
-Adhere to the `Output honesty` constraint. Recognize that `cargo mutants` found zero missed mutants across `tokmd-types` (21 caught, 4 unviable), meaning the target proof surface is already robust. Pivot the assignment into a Learning PR describing this outcome, removing the fake patch that hallucinated missing assertions, and logging a friction item.
+Add property tests for JSON path serialization stability in `crates/tokmd-types/src/evidence_packet.rs`.
 
-## Decision
-Choose Option B. The core pipeline is well-covered, and forcing an untruthful fix violates the primary constraints of the run. Submitting a Learning PR is the required honest fallback path.
+**When to choose it instead:** If the primary gap is in the contract boundary with review-packet consumers, checking stable serialization formats and exact data preservation under stress conditions.
+
+**Trade-offs:**
+*   **Structure:** Ensures serialized outputs maintain backwards compatibility.
+*   **Velocity:** Lower payoff since these DTOs don't carry complex internal calculations.
+
+# Decision
+We will go with **Option A**. The mathematical aggregation in `compute_diff_totals` forms the backbone of the diff pipeline's summary capabilities. Ensuring deterministic correctness via property-based testing directly fulfills the gate profile `mutation` expectations around reducing uncertainty in logic.

 ## 💡 Summary
-This is a Learning PR. I explored the `tokmd-types` crate to close mutant gaps and improve tests, but found that the core type math was already fully covered.
+This change adds property-based testing to `compute_diff_totals` to mathematically guarantee the deterministic summation of diff rows.
 
 ## 🎯 Why
-The Mutant persona assignment `mutant_high_value` requested targeted mutation-style proofs on high-value core surfaces. However, running `cargo mutants -p tokmd-types` revealed zero missed mutants (21 caught, 4 unviable out of 25). Forcing a patch here would violate the `Output honesty` rule by claiming a win that was not proven.
+The diff calculations sit at the edge of the core formatting pipeline. While some static smoke tests existed, the mathematical aggregation over arbitrary rows lacked structured invariant checks (`new - old == delta`, map/sum matching `fold`). Adding Proptest coverage here strengthens confidence that `tokmd diff` emits correct metrics under randomized inputs.
 
 ## 🔎 Evidence
-Minimal proof:
-- file path(s): `crates/tokmd-types/src/lib.rs`
-- observed finding: The mutation suite successfully caught or marked unviable all 25 mutants tested. No gap exists.
-- command: `cargo mutants -p tokmd-types`
+- `crates/tokmd-format/src/diff/compute.rs`
+- Observed gap: No randomized property tests for the `DiffTotals` reduction function.
 
 ## 🧭 Options considered
-### Option A
-- Force a fake patch on `tokmd-types` by hallucinating gaps that do not exist, and claim that mutation gaps were closed when they were not.
-- Trade-offs: Directly violates hard prompt constraints ("Hallucinated work is failure").
+### Option A (recommended)
+- Add property tests for `compute_diff_totals` in `crates/tokmd-format/src/diff/compute.rs`.
+- Why it fits: Aligns directly with the "Mutant" objective to reduce uncertainty around contract surfaces by testing structural math.
+- Trade-offs: Minor code footprint; negligible test-time cost; high confidence in core accumulation.
 
-### Option B (recommended)
-- Adhere to the `Output honesty` constraint. Pivot to a Learning PR.
-- Fits this repo and shard: It respects the pipeline's request to surface a friction item when no honest code patch is justified.
-- Trade-offs: No production logic changed, but keeps the history clean.
+### Option B
+- Add serialization stability tests for json boundary DTOs.
+- When to choose: Better if the core structural issue was backwards-incompatible breaks in the manifest definitions rather than math accumulation logic.
+- Trade-offs: Testing DTO fields is less mathematically rigorous than fuzzing an accumulator.
 
 ## ✅ Decision
-Choose Option B. The core pipeline is well-covered, and forcing an untruthful fix violates the primary constraints of the run. Submitting a Learning PR is the required honest fallback path.
+Option A was chosen. Enhancing mathematical validation of the diff totals directly improves the proof guarantees around `tokmd diff`'s accuracy.
 
 ## 🧱 Changes made (SRP)
-- Created learning PR packet artifacts. No code files were modified.
+- `crates/tokmd-format/src/diff/compute.rs`:
+  - Added property tests for invariant maintenance (`new - old = delta`).
+  - Added property tests confirming `fold` accumulator behavior exactly matches simple mapping sums.
+  - Added deterministic zero check for empty sequences.
