+### TD-CI-TEST-JOB-DEBUGINFO0 — `test` job hit the same link cliff; `debuginfo=0` extended to it (2026-06-16)
+
+**Open — fix applied (merged via #511's CI commit), CONFIRM on the next green
+`test` run.** Extends `TD-CI-COVERAGE-MOLD-1` from the coverage job to the plain
+`test` job. The cliff that entry called *"a 2/50 intermittent"* surfaced on the
+**`test`** job: `ld terminated with signal 7 [Bus error]` + an LLVM crash dump at
+the `cargo test --no-run` link step of `test_sql_query` / `intervene_counterfactual`.
+
+Root cause is **link-footprint growth, not a logic break** (a layout break fails an
+assertion, not SIGBUS at link): **PR #507** (`0c6ef02c`, +4055/−1048 across
+`causal-edge` edge.rs/layout.rs — the ce64-v2 layout — and `cognitive-shader-driver`
+mailbox_soa.rs/driver.rs/planner_bridge.rs — MailboxSoaOwner + SurrealMailboxView,
+D-PG-6) grew the object-file set the lance-graph integration tests link, tipping the
+previously-marginal `test`-job link over the same disk/RSS ceiling. It surfaced on
+the first full-workspace CI run *after* #507 (the PRs between — #509 and
+perturbation-sim #511 — are root-`exclude`d so their CI never linked the post-#507
+tree; that is why it was "the first failing PR" yet not its fault).
+
+**This is a FENCE, not a root reduction:** it does not shrink #507's legitimate
+codegen; it sheds the dead `debuginfo=1` weight (CI never opens a debugger) to buy
+headroom — the same b56bb2cd lever, now on the `test` job. **Fix:** job-level
+`RUSTFLAGS: "-C debuginfo=0 -C target-cpu=x86-64-v3"` on `test` (parity with
+`test-with-coverage`; mold already installed). Side effect: the `test` job gets its
+own Swatinem cache key (first run repopulates).
+
+**Residual debt if it recurs after this:** the footprint is on a secular upward
+trend (every cognitive-layer PR adds codegen) — the durable fix is a bigger runner
+or splitting the integration-test link set, not repeatedly shaving flags.
+**Separately tracked latent item:** #507 left `intervene_counterfactual.rs:133/165`
+calling the **deprecated** `CausalEdge64::inference_type()` (the consumer-migration
+commit `8131c480` lives on the unmerged `claude/continue-ndarray-x0Oaw`) — that
+WARNS, does not fail (v1 default routes through the canonical mapping per
+I-LEGACY-API-FEATURE-GATED).
+
+Cross-ref: `TD-CI-COVERAGE-MOLD-1` (the coverage-job origin this extends);
+`.github/workflows/rust-test.yml` (now both jobs at `debuginfo=0`); PR #507
+(`0c6ef02c`); `claude/continue-ndarray-x0Oaw` (the pending ce64-v2 consumer
+migration). *(Relocated 2026-06-16 from an inline addendum inside
+`TD-CI-COVERAGE-MOLD-1` to this prepended entry, per the append-only board-hygiene
+rule — CodeRabbit #512 review.)*

 ### TD-CAUSAL-EDGE-LINT — `causal-edge` crate-wide pre-existing clippy (15) + fmt drift (2026-06-15)
 
 **Surfaced by** fixing the long-standing `test_build_fast` red (2026-06-15, this commit: `tables.rs:144` `<`→`<=`, the `c_levels=1` 256 KB floor — test now **48/48 green**). With the test green, `cargo clippy --manifest-path crates/causal-edge/Cargo.toml --lib -- -D warnings` still fails with **15 errors** (edge.rs `to_mantissa`/`from_mantissa`/`plasticity` — match-arm + needless-block lints) and `cargo fmt --check` shows **crate-wide drift** (edge.rs, v2_layout_tests.rs — arm spacing, long `assert_eq!` lines, nested if/else). **Pre-existing, NOT from the test-bound fix** (one line, tables.rs, fmt-clean). **CI-invisible** — `causal-edge` is not a lance-graph workspace member, so the workspace gate never clippy/fmt-checks it (same class as helix `probe_mantissa_fill`).
