Held by the maintainer (2026-11-04), released 2026-11-06: min init keeps the legacy [session] scaffold until box creation expands a spec over [defaults.<type>]. #2410 (BOX T16) added mfile::expand, and BOX T21 (#2418) wires it into box creation. The PR lists the flip to the entry shape as a residual that links #2418.
Waits on:

### T20 — Scaffold and append entries with min init
slice: S5
kind: task
covers: BCLI-017, BCLI-018
size: L
est: 200 code, 300 tests
executor: agent
difficulty: routine
model: standard
diagnostics: when two of `--session`, `--task`, `--agent`, `--service` and `--type` are given, `min init` prints "Pass one of --session, --task, --agent, --service or --type." and changes nothing, pinned by init_noun_flags_exclusive_exit2_appends_nothing
observability: the command's existing tracing span records the verb, the box id it resolved and the outcome
layers:
- client:
- crates/minimal/src/cli.rs: the verb's arguments and help in the one command model
- crates/minimal/src/cmd/project.rs: `min init` scaffolds the entry shape and appends one entry by `--type` or a noun flag
- crates/minimal/src/main.rs: `failure_exit_code` maps this verb's refusals to their exit codes
- crates/minimal/src/tests.rs: the in-process minimald test harness gains this layer's tests

proof: `min init` writes an entry-shaped `minimal.toml`, and `min init <entry> --type <type>` appends one entry.
