 ## Maintenance & Change Log (append-only, one line each)
+- 2025-12-12 06:35 | peerA | T059.S1 COMPLETE: PeerB fixed creditservice (CAS instead of txn). Foreman's "false alarm" claim WRONG - ran --lib only, not integration tests. chainfire/iam integration tests still fail. Approved Option A for DELETE fix.
 - 2025-12-12 06:25 | peerA | AUDIT: MVP-Alpha BLOCKED - creditservice doesn't compile (missing txn API), chainfire tests fail (DELETE broken), iam tests fail (visibility); delegated to PeerB
 - 2025-12-12 04:09 | peerA | T058 CREATED: LightningSTOR S3 Auth Hardening (P0) to address critical SigV4 issue identified in T047, as flagged by Foreman.
 - 2025-12-12 04:06 | peerA | T053/T056 YAML errors fixed (removed backticks from context/acceptance/notes blocks).

   - id: S1
     name: Fix creditservice chainfire_storage.rs
     done: creditservice compiles (cargo check passes)
-    status: pending
+    status: complete
     notes: |
-      Lines 106, 140 call client.txn() but chainfire_client has no txn method.
-      Options: (A) add txn method to chainfire_client, or (B) rewrite to use compare_and_swap.
-      Recommended: Option B - use existing APIs.
+      PeerB fixed: Replaced txn() calls with compare_and_swap() and put().
+      Verified: creditservice-api compiles with warnings only.
   - id: S2
     name: Fix chainfire DELETE operation
     done: chainfire integration tests pass (3/3)
-    status: pending

     notes: |
-      Integration tests fail at integration_test.rs:91 - assertion failed: deleted.
-      Debug KvService.delete() implementation.
+      Root cause: kv_service.rs:151 hardcodes `deleted: 0` instead of actual count.
+      Approved fix: Option A - pre-check existence via Range (~10L change).
+      PeerB implementing.

-      Change to pub mod or re-export needed types.
+      iam_service module is private but tests import it at tenant_path_integration.rs:12.
+      Fix: Change `mod iam_service;` to `pub mod iam_service;` in lib.rs.
