+# Cross-Spec Gap Audit (2026-06-08)
+
+> Batch `/kiro-validate-gap` across 9 specs on persistent_ha branch.
+
+## Analysis Summary
+
+- **scheduler-controller-msg-gap** is **~100% complete**. All 9 task groups, 28 subtasks (1.1–9.9) are `[x]` (9.9 optional).
+- **No remaining gaps**: All 8 requirements have verified implementation. The 6 previously stubbed notify/dataset handlers (`schedUpdateJob`, `schedUpdateQueue`, `schedUpdateResvals`, `schedJobRusages`, `Data_data_resources`, `Data_data_resvals`) are wired with full business logic. Dead code (`pushmsg` branches, `sched_handle_jobpush`, `sched_handle_workerpush`) removed. Symbolic logging via `xce_notify_event_name()` and `xce_sched_op_name()` is in place.
+- **Optional gap**: Task 9.9 (verify WARN log when handler returns non-zero) is marked optional — requires log capture infrastructure not yet present in the test harness.
+- **Cross-spec relationship**: `resval-id-decoupling` uses the same pattern (name-based resource lookup via `sched->resmgr`) in `sched_init_sharedInst`. The `XCE_SCHED_OP_UPDATE_RESVALS_FULL` handler added in this spec also resolves by name — consistency is maintained.
+- **Recommendation**: The spec can be marked `implemented`. Task 9.9 can be closed as deferred.
