 Treatment-specific contracts preserve the selected features only. Whole-source deviation applies to close paraphrase, including sounding durations; it does not penalize recomposition for changing unrelated notes. Before optional runs, realized pitch/time overlap and interval/rhythm fragments reject substantial near-copies (initial settings: 80% agreement across a two-bar window with at least four source attacks). Octave shifts, reattacks and extra attacks cannot dilute the duration comparison. Additional distance earns no bonus. The original source reference and the solo's realized theme remain separate in state and reports.
 
-Scale permission and chord function remain distinct. Every generated sound must belong to all mapped collections it overlaps. Added chromatic substitutions and their validation exception have been removed; mapped accidentals such as C-sharp in D harmonic minor remain valid. Basic chord members respect suspensions, alterations and omissions; slash-bass requirements do not automatically become melodic targets. Ordinary sounds lasting at least two quarter-note beats must remain chord members across every overlapping chord, unless an explicit valid color or prepared suspension applies. Tied notation is merged before evaluation. Terminal anchors must actually complete, and protected quotations retain their contracts.
+Scale permission and chord function remain distinct. Ordinary melody and runs must belong to all mapped collections they overlap; mapped accidentals such as C-sharp in D harmonic minor remain valid. A separate, complete enclosure contract can authorize one brief lower approach outside that map. Generic chromatic substitutions remain disabled.

Ordinary sounds lasting at least two quarter-note beats must remain chord members across every overlapping chord, unless an explicit valid color or prepared suspension applies. Tied notation is merged before evaluation. Terminal anchors must actually complete, and protected quotations retain their contracts.
 
 Rhythm snippets and complete interval routes realize one- or two-bar edits jointly with chord-tone destinations. Routes retain their entry, complete timing, pitch path and arrival across barlines and collection changes. Later candidates receive the incoming note, position and realized theme before pitch generation. Run entries may extend an existing note without reattack. Intermediate arrivals continue the thought; the final destination has a closed-ending contract. Missing harmony creates explicit silence while preserving thematic memory. Short fragments around missing harmony are explicitly reduced and do not claim full motif fidelity.
 
+Destination retrieval retains representatives of the actual chord degrees before narrowing timing/register choices. Thirds, sevenths, specified sixths, suspensions and altered fifths receive a small harmonic-function preference; roots and fifths remain eligible. The same bounded target cost considers incoming motion, recent destinations, the theme's direction and one following harmony. Terminal roots of the mapped tonic also remain competitive. A Dm triad does not acquire Dm7's seventh, and a non-chord slash bass does not become a melody target.
+
+After selecting the strict acoustic/electric pair and its mapped runs, `solo/enclosures.py` compares sparse local ornaments with direct arrivals. The initial vocabulary is a mapped upper neighbor followed by a lower semitone neighbor, each an eighth note, then the exact preselected chord-tone target. The upper is at most three semitones above the target. The lower can already be mapped; chromatic status earns no extra reward. Each candidate replaces a continuously sounding beat before an existing intermediate stop or terminal hold, optionally revising a complete mapped route up to two beats earlier. Identifying features, protected quotations, rests, target timing and the whole required hold remain intact. No target is reattacked merely to make an ornament possible.
+
+Validation checks the complete sounded gesture, all crossed harmony/scale spans, exact pitch and octave, arrival and release, and actual preparation/resolution timing. Only the contracted lower event can receive an exception. Missing, changed, clipped or unresolved targets invalidate the entire gesture. Tied splits do not change classification. A small chorus frontier retains direct options, with at most one enclosure per phrase and four per 32 bars; sparse use is a soft preference, not a quota. The home theme and development history stay strict. Placement is resolved across the final solo, and backing responds to the decorated foreground. Build-time `enclosures_enabled=False` on compose/compose_pair/arrangement skips only this final pass; no runtime fields or performance expression are added.
+
 The plain recomposed theme is exported independently of optional runs. Activity retains a soft 4–6 attacks-per-four-beats preference; occupancy remains diagnostic. No accents, dynamics, swing or other performance-expression changes are applied.
 
 Search retains eight phrase alternatives and an eight-state chorus frontier, with two intermediate continuations per established theme. Up to 64 acoustic/electric pairs compete; equivalent themes after transposition are excluded while individual musical costs and pair similarity remain separate. Concrete caches include incoming state, harmony, timing and vocabulary. One bounded replan broadens eligible start and destination pitches. Exhaustion identifies the failed window without invoking a generic composer. Stable ordering and final tie-breaking preserve determinism.
 
 Phrase register alternatives cover the available F2–E5 sounding range. Placement uses all six strings, frets 1–12 without open notes, with a four-fret hand-position model and alternative endpoint fingerings. Movement costs use available time; they do not claim a maximum playable speed. Equal-cost tie-breaking has no first-string preference. Chords elsewhere retain their existing 1–12 anchor policy. The other guitarist is recomposed around the selected foreground, and the returning vocal pickup remains protected.
 
-Build reports in `generated_assets/analysis/` include selected source features, recurring solo themes, development lineage, anchors, complete routes, plain-versus-head and elaborated-versus-head comparisons, and candidate diagnostics. Audition reports additionally show string use weighted by sounding duration and distinguish forced first-string notes from optional placements. These measurements establish technical behavior, not musical quality.

 For comparisons, preserve the previous `elaborated/snapshot.json` under `build/solo_melody_auditions/paraphrase_baseline/`, then run `./modulus.py python -m generator.solo.lead_audition --capture` and `--render`. Open `build/solo_melody_auditions/index.html` for the original source, previous close paraphrase, new theme and theme with runs, alone and with fixed backing. Full final mixes also use responsive accompaniment. Source controls preserve the imported melody and may expose original harmonic tensions; production variations must pass strict validation. The temporary reference archive remains ignored at `build/lead_melody_reference.zip`.
 
+The current enclosure comparison is under `build/solo_enclosure_auditions/index.html`: previous production, the new selected strict solo, and that same solo with enclosures, with fixed backing and the final responsive arrangement. `before_enclosure` retains the complete pre-ornament realization, distinct from the plain theme before runs. To capture a new comparison, preserve the prior snapshot as `before/snapshot.json`, then run `./modulus.py python -m generator.solo.audition --output build/solo_enclosure_auditions --capture after` and `--render`. `--no-enclosures` provides a strict capture. These build artifacts are ignored by Git.
