timothyandtimothy	d4c72697f2	feat(780): commit a ruff config and enforce it in CI (#813) ... Python lint here was a property of the operator's laptop: the global instructions say to run ruff, no workflow ran it, and with no committed config ruff fell back to whichever ~/.config/ruff/ruff.toml the machine happened to have. - ruff.toml at the root, pinned ruff==0.12.11 in the script-tests job. - Both lint steps pass an EXPLICIT population from `git ls-files` with `--no-force-exclude`, never `ruff check .` — an `exclude` empties a discovery-based run into a GREEN one (top level empties both commands, [lint] empties check, [format] empties format --check), and `ruff check .` over zero files exits 0 with only a stderr warning. Guarded by an empty-population arm. - Tree clean: 74 findings at 706674272, 57 fixed in code, 17 per-site noqa with reasons inline. S105 deliberately per-site, not a directory blanket. RUF100 selected so a suppression that suppresses nothing is itself a finding. - pyright stays ungated; reasoning in the record. Both steps witnessed red on the runner against the shipped bodies: run 2173 job 9176 (ruff check) and run 2170 job 9163 (ruff format --check). Docs: new record ci.python-lint-ruff-config-committed, ci.script-tests-job cross-ref, docs/ci-cd.md (also correcting a stale ~190-tests/~10s figure to the measured 773 tests / ~4.5 min), docs/defect-shapes-773.md §5.2 resolved. fixes #780 Co-authored-by: Timothy <timothy@noreply.gitea.tblindustries.be>	2026-08-22 00:33:18 +00:00
timothyandClaude Opus 5	efc34a3481	fix(688): pin p95's inclusivity; drop a stale ratio and hedge the gap width ... Round 7's second reviewer returned MERGEABLE on the previous head after re-measuring every figure and running a 48-mutant battery — and reported ZERO wrong or unverified numbers, which ends this branch's five-commit streak of them. It also independently confirmed the round-6 adjudication: at `f394d6ce`, the sha the record cites, the #620-era distribution really is n=167, min 2, median 26, p90 52, next value 83. All five figures correct as written. This commit clears its four non-blocking items. - `marks_tail`'s UPPER inclusivity was the last meaningful surviving mutant: `ceiling <= p95` mutated to `<` survived the whole suite. Notice-only rather than blocking, but an unpinned boundary is how a documented claim quietly stops being true — the same defect the previous commit fixed for the coarse band. Both ends now pinned; verified the mutant fails. - "the largest by ~1.6x" was TRUE at `f394d6ce` (230/147 = 1.56) and is stale today (230/198 = 1.16). Unlike the consolidation table two paragraphs down, that sentence was never scoped to a sha — so rather than re-pin a number that will rot again, it now just says "the longest", which stays true however the tail moves. - The validator docstring asserted the 60->81 gap flatly; a 70-line record existed as recently as `8f6d4f443^`, so the gap's WIDTH is more volatile than that implied. Hedged to say it is the shape as measured today, not a constant. Nothing asserts it either way. - Rewrapped a mid-sentence line break left by the previous commit. Three surviving mutants are accepted and left: the crosscheck's not-a-mapping branch is unreachable from any fixture, the None -> "" normalisation only matters for an explicit YAML null no record has, and `_frontmatter_block` returning "" instead of None is a downstream no-op. Verification: 432 scripts/tests pass; ruff at baseline parity (47, and `ruff format --check` at parity 9/9); validator exits 0 with no drift notice; corpus at p90=60, 18/183, calibrated.

timothyandClaude Opus 5	2ff52d4236	fix(688): make the n oracle dynamic; correct a tense that asserted false history ... Review round 6: one MERGEABLE with non-blocking prose, one NOT-MERGEABLE with a real test defect. Both addressed. THE n PIN DID NOT PIN ANYTHING. `assert n == 10` was checked against a fixture holding exactly ten records, so a mutation returning a constant 10 for EVERY input satisfied it — while changing the live denominator from 183 to 10, which is precisely the production defect the test was added to close. A single hardcoded count cannot tell "counts the input" from "returns this number". Now a dynamic oracle at two distinct cardinalities; verified the constant-n mutation fails it. "MOVED p90 by 21 lines" asserted a history I had not measured. 21 is TODAY's gap (60 -> 81). The actual #672 event was smaller — at that tree p90 was 60 with the next value 83, so the 62-line record moved p90 to 62 and reddened CI with a 2-line move. The capability claim is what matters and is true at both refs; the past tense was not. Changed to "can move" in the two places that asserted it, which also makes all four sites agree with docs/ci-cd.md and the validator docstring, both of which already said "could". A REVIEW FINDING I REJECTED, having measured it. Round 6 called "p90 52" wrong for the #620-era distribution, measuring 57. That measurement is at `fefd11dff`; the record cites `f394d6ce`, and at THAT sha p90 is exactly 52 (n=167, min 2, median 26). The number is correct as written and is unchanged. Recording the disagreement rather than silently keeping it: the reviewer measured a different tree than the one the claim names. Also corrected in this branch's own commit message trail: `b24c51ab5` said origin/main has three 59-line records; it has four 59s and two 60s (HEAD: four and three). The claim that survives, and the only one the code and docs now make, is that NOTHING sits between 61 and 80 at either ref — verified independently at both. Cosmetics from the same round: a dangling modifier in ceiling_calibration's docstring, a test_decisions_lib assertion message that said "field(s) differ" when faults can now also be rejections, and a sentence in corpus-size-signal that named the replacement test without saying what it asserts. Verification: 431 scripts/tests pass; ruff at baseline parity (47); validator exits 0 with no drift notice; corpus at p90=60, 18/183, calibrated.

timothyandClaude Opus 5	b24c51ab51	fix(688): stop enumerating multiplicities, pin n and the keyless filter, de-couple the vacuity floors ... Review round 5. One reviewer returned MERGEABLE with prose findings; the other found four more, two of them real test gaps. Both are addressed here. THE MULTIPLICITIES WERE WRONG AGAIN — fourth commit running. The "measured" sequence 59, 59, 60, 60 -> 81 is measured nowhere: origin/main has 59, 59, 59, 60, 60 and HEAD has four 59s and three 60s. I had even tagged it `(measured)` in a canonical decision record. So this stops enumerating them. All four sites now state only the load-bearing, stable fact: the lengths climb to the ceiling and then jump STRAIGHT to 81 with nothing in between, so one record moves p90 by 21 lines. The multiplicities change with every record added; the gap is the point. This is the same "fix the boundary, not the site" move the tests got three rounds ago, applied to prose that had failed four times. TEST GAPS - Deleting the over-tight test removed the only pin on CeilingCalibration.n: a mutation returning n=1 passed all 19 relevant tests while printing a wrong denominator in the drift notice. Pinned. - The `if r.key` filter was load-bearing in production and unpinned: main() passes the UNFILTERED list (194 entries, 11 keyless, one a 106-line "Records formerly in this file" scaffolding block), while every test handed the function a pre-filtered list — oracle and production agreed only by accident. Pinned. - The --record-ceiling 0 arm's claim that it "cannot go vacuous for any non-empty corpus" was FALSE: an empty record body is validator-valid and record_prose_lines returns 0, so a corpus of empty-bodied records has no offender at 0. Now -1, which makes the claim true. - The three `len(recs) > 100` vacuity floors were themselves growth-coupled — 83 legitimate retirements would red them even with the ceiling still calibrated, which is the #688 class in the guard rather than the assertion. Lowered to >20 where a floor is meaningful, and to plain non-empty on the derived-ceiling test, whose derivations need nothing more. - test_main_FEEDS_the_crosscheck now compares against `set(record_wing_files())` instead of a hardcoded basename, killing the same mutation with zero corpus dependence. PROSE - "ordinary growth cannot cross it — NOT immune" contradicted itself in four places. Now: no SINGLE ordinary addition can cross it; this is measured headroom, not immunity. - "trimming or archiving 15" blurred two different denominators. Trimming leaves 3/183 = 1.64%; archiving leaves 3/168 = 1.79% because the denominator moves too. Both verified, both under the floor, now stated separately. Verification: 431 scripts/tests pass; ruff at baseline parity (47 — a 121-char docstring line briefly took it to 48 and is rewrapped); validator exits 0 with no drift notice; corpus at p90=60, 18/183, calibrated; record still 60 lines.

timothyandClaude Opus 5	c56dfdd539	fix(688): delete the last over-tight test, pin the crosscheck's INPUT, fix 4 prose defects ... Review round 4, both reviewers. Both report the code path SOUND and the #688 coupling class analytically gone (rows proved, not merely observed green); one caught 28 of 30 mutations. What blocked was one over-tight test, two unpinned mutations, and prose — including two defects the PREVIOUS commit introduced while claiming to fix numbers. TESTS - Deleted test_adding_ordinary_records_cannot_RED_the_blocking_property. It appended two long records to the LIVE corpus and asserted flags_minority on the RESULT, so it crossed the cap two records before production does (56/221 vs 54/219) — a test named "cannot RED the blocking property" being a tighter tripwire than the property. Fourth instance of the #688 defect in this change. Deleted rather than tuned: both its jobs are already covered off live data (the synthetic v4/v5 contrast, and the deliberate live guard at the production threshold). - test_main_FEEDS_the_crosscheck_the_REAL_wing_files closes a mutation hole found by review: replacing `pyyaml_frontmatter_faults(record_wing_files())` with `...([])` in main() left the ENTIRE suite green. Both existing wiring tests monkeypatch the function, so they pinned that its RETURN reaches errs, never that its ARGUMENT is the corpus — the '#609 marker that printed OK while doing nothing' defect one level up, which is the exact thing the new record indicts. Verified: the mutation now fails this test. - test_main_actually_REPORTS_... went vacuous whenever the ceiling legitimately goes green (`False is False` passes with the whole warning branch deleted). Added an arm at --record-ceiling 0, which no non-empty corpus can make vacuous. - Pinned two surviving mutations: ceiling_calibration's n_over boundary (it recomputes the count, so oversized_records' exclusivity test does not cover it — `>` vs `>=` differs by the 3 records sitting exactly on the ceiling) and p95's quantile (the 95/5 fixture cannot tell 0.95 from 0.99). PROSE — two of these were introduced by the previous commit, whose stated job was fixing numbers. That is the pattern worth naming, not the individual typos. - "so ONE new record could move p90 lines" — the previous commit deleted the magnitude and left the sentence ungrammatical. Now "by 21 lines". - It also introduced a THIRD variant of the sequence it was correcting ("60, 60, 60") and missed a FOURTH site in ci-cd.md still saying "twenty lines". All four sites now read the measured 59, 59, 60, 60 -> 81, and 21 lines. - 59- and 60-line records were described as "above the ceiling"; they are at or below it. - "routine growth cannot cross it" overstated the bound: it is deliberately less sensitive, not immune. Reworded, and the THIRD and tightest arm is now documented wherever the other two appear: consolidating 15 of the 18 offenders drops below the 2% floor (verified: 3/183 = 1.64%). That is in real tension with test_oversized_records_can_go_green and is stated as accepted — at 3/183 the constant genuinely is mis-calibrated — with the remedy named: a consolidation PR that large should re-derive the ceiling in the same change. - Corrected a docstring that called the 999-ceiling failure "silently deleting the assertion"; it would go red, not silent. Verification: 430 scripts/tests pass; ruff at baseline parity (47); validator exits 0 with no drift notice; corpus at p90=60, 18/183, calibrated. The two new claims were measured, not assumed: the empty-list mutation fails the new test, and 15 consolidations reaches 1.64%.

timothyandClaude Opus 5	0db56c3ebd	fix(688): remove the last live-corpus tripwires and three fabricated/wrong numbers ... Review round 3, both reviewers, NOT-MERGEABLE. Nothing needed rework — the code path was found sound and mutation-sensitive (a 17-mutation battery caught every mutation with the semantically correct test). What was left were tripwires and prose. TRIPWIRES - `assert need > 20` was the tightest live-corpus assertion left in the blocking job: it reds after 16 over-ceiling additions, while `flags_minority` — the property #688 exists to protect — survives to 36. An arbitrary threshold on a live order statistic is the ratchet wearing a different hat. Removed; the measured headroom lives in prose, where being out of date costs a doc fix rather than someone else's red build. This also removes an unbounded `while` loop that HUNG the suite rather than failing it when the ratio could not reach the cap. - test_main_reports_ceiling_drift hardcoded ceiling 999, which is not guaranteed above p95: ten valid 1000-line records make 999 calibrated and silently delete the test's only assertion. Now derived as max+1, off the tail by definition. - test_main_actually_REPORTS_the_ceiling_and_the_trend required >=1 over-ceiling record. The ceiling is ALLOWED to go green (test_oversized_records_can_go_green says so), so that would red the blocking job the day someone consolidates the last offender — punishing exactly the work the warning asks for. Restated as an IFF. - test_no_budget_flag_means_no_retirement_warning asserted no bare "RETIRED" in stderr; a legitimate stale record whose TITLE contains the word reds it. Matched precisely now. - Added the >100-record vacuity guard its siblings carry to the derived-ceiling test. NUMBERS — all three were mine, and two are the failure mode this repo calls worse than no note at all (a confident claim that was never measured): - "the lengths above the ceiling ran 60, 61, 62, 63 then jumped to 81" is FABRICATED. No record of 61, 62 or 63 lines exists at origin/main, at the #672 sha, or at the #706 sha. Measured, the sequence is 59, 59, 60, 60 then 81 — a 21-line jump, so the conclusion was if anything understated. Corrected in all three places it was repeated, including the canonical v4 row of docs.corpus-size-signal. - The crosscheck record called `decisions-guard` a REQUIRED check — introduced by the previous commit in the sentence rewritten to fix an overclaim. Verified against Gitea branch protection: `main` requires exactly `Build & test (.NET)`, `EF migration integrity` and `review-verdict/h10`. NEITHER script-tests NOR decisions-guard is required; the record now says so. - docs.corpus-size-signal said 37 additions "to reach" the cap two paragraphs above 38 "below the cap" — a same-document numeric inconsistency of exactly the class this change set out to remove. Both now state 38 to BREACH, noting 37 lands on 0.25 and passes. - Also: the old bound's accepted range is 39..229 (not 43..229 — 43 is the NEW bound's lower edge); "95% over the ceiling" was 100%; `oversized_records` said the #620 distribution began at 0 lines where the record itself says 2. Verification: 428 scripts/tests pass; ruff at baseline parity (47); validator exits 0 with no drift notice; corpus at p90=60, 18/183 over the ceiling, record trimmed to 60 lines so main ships calibrated.

timothyandClaude Opus 5	b3a8826281	fix(688): stop asserting live-corpus order statistics anywhere in the suite ... Review round 2 (both reviewers, independently) found the round-1 fix incomplete: the live-corpus coupling survived in two more tests. This is the THIRD instance of one defect class in this change, so the fix is to remove the coupling rather than patch another site. BLOCKER — test_adding_ordinary_records still asserted live order statistics. The `if before.marks_tail:` guard made the PRECONDITION conditional but left the CONCLUSION (`assert not after.marks_tail`) an assertion about the live p90. Verified: appending 16 ordinary 30-line records — nothing long, nothing unusual — makes both sides true and fires it, reddening the blocking job for an unrelated author. Exactly what #688 exists to abolish. The v4-vs-v5 contrast moved to test_v4_would_have_reddened_where_v5_holds, built on a distribution the test OWNS, reproducing the shape that matters (a sparse gap just above the ceiling). The real-corpus test now asserts only the robust claims: the additions were counted, v5 holds, and the measured headroom. Same treatment for the "bad ceiling" teeth test, which hard-coded that 200/229/230 stay rejected on the live corpus — three new 200+ line records flip it. Teeth now demonstrated synthetically; the only live-corpus assertion left is that today's ceiling is accepted, which needs 38 over-ceiling or 718 short additions to break. The IFF drift test could lose its quiet branch: one 61-line record makes BOTH the 60 and 999 ceilings drift, at which point an UNCONDITIONAL notice would pass. Both ceilings are now DERIVED — p90 itself (always calibrated, since p90 <= p90 <= p95) and max+1 (always off the tail) — so each branch is guaranteed by construction, and the test asserts it exercised both. Added the missing regression test for the typed-mapping-key TypeError: removing `key=str` now fails a test instead of only a manual probe. Corrected against measurement: the v5 row of the record's own version table still stated the REJECTED first-draft bound (`0 < f < 1/3`) — the canonical artefact contradicting both the code and its own next paragraph; accepted range is 43..180, not "roughly 45..150"; breaching the cap takes 38 additions, not 37 (37 lands exactly on 0.25, which passes under `<=`); "5x headroom below the floor" was inverted; ci-cd.md said four versions "all ratcheted" when v1 was vacuous and v2 accepted an absurd ceiling; and the crosscheck record overstated protection — script-tests is NOT a required check, so "no broken record has reached main" is procedural, not structural. Evidence the coupling is actually gone: mid-fix the corpus sat at marks_tail=False (an edit pushed this branch's own record to 61 lines, moving p90) and the suite stayed fully green. Under the old assertions that state reddened CI. The record is trimmed back to 60 so main ships calibrated and no drift notice nags. Verification: 428 scripts/tests pass; ruff at baseline parity (47); validator exits 0 with no drift notice; corpus at p90=60, 18/183 over the ceiling.

timothyandClaude Opus 5	80818aa294	fix(674,688): address independent review — restore the coarse bound's teeth ... Two independent cold reviews (one cross-family) agreed on the top two findings. 1. The #688 fix was defeated by its own complement test. test_main_is_QUIET_about_ drift asserted the drift notice was ABSENT while running main() over the LIVE corpus — whose failure condition is bit-for-bit v4's assertion, in the same blocking job, three functions down. p90 sat exactly on 60, so one over-ceiling record would have reddened it. Replaced with an IFF test that uses ceiling_calibration as its oracle, so it asserts the WIRING rather than the corpus's current state, plus a guard that at least one branch fires. 2. The coarse bound was nearly unfalsifiable. `0 < fraction_over < 1/3` accepted EVERY ceiling from 39 to 229 on the real corpus — including the ceiling of 200 my own docstring offered as the case it catches, because one 230-line record keeps the count nonzero. That claim was simply false and is corrected. The floor is now a FRACTION (2%) and the cap 25%, which rejects 200/229/230 and 20, and accepts roughly 45..150. Headroom measured, not estimated: 37 consecutive over-ceiling additions, against ONE record to break v4. 3. yaml.safe_load raises a bare ValueError, not a YAMLError, on a well-shaped but impossible date (stale-after: 2026-06-31), which escaped as a traceback and killed the validator on any machine with PyYAML. The except is now deliberately broad, with a test. 4. PyYAML returns TYPED mapping keys, so a stray `1: x` made sorted(set|set) raise TypeError. Sorted with key=str. 5. The headroom prose was arithmetically wrong (~42/~40 where the real values are 63/64; each addition moves numerator AND denominator) and the record counts were stale. Corrected against measurement. 6. test_adding_ordinary_records passed identically with its two additions removed. It now asserts the additions were counted, and that they break the v4 property while leaving v5 satisfied — guarded by `if`, never asserted, since whether v4 currently holds is a fact about the live distribution and asserting it would rebuild the ratchet. Also recorded honestly in docs.frontmatter-pyyaml-crosscheck: decisions-guard installs no PyYAML, so in CI the cross-check always skips and script-tests already caught both hazards — the CI delta is close to zero and the real fix is the local loop plus the tool/suite agreement. And the new record was trimmed 64 -> 58 prose lines: at 64 it moved p90 to 64 by itself, i.e. this PR would have reddened the old blocking job. That is now cited in the test as the live demonstration. Verification: 426 scripts/tests pass; ruff at baseline parity (47); validator exits 0; corpus back to p90=60, 18/183 over the ceiling, marks_tail and flags_minority both true.

timothyandClaude Opus 5	9d2b30dc3b	fix(674,688): cross-check frontmatter against PyYAML; split the ceiling calibration claim ... Two defects in scripts/decisions_validate.py, fixed together because they share the validator and its pytest suite. #674 — the validator reported OK on frontmatter PyYAML rejects. The hand-rolled reader is deliberately dependency-free (decisions-guard and the Husky hooks install nothing), so it cannot see a bare apostrophe closing a single-quoted scalar. Hit twice in one session by two independent agents. `pyyaml_frontmatter_faults()` now cross-checks the parse against PyYAML whenever PyYAML is importable, and is SKIPPED with a ::notice:: when it is not — the read path stays dependency-free. The two known hazards fail differently and the fix covers both: the apostrophe makes PyYAML reject the document, while an unquoted ` #` parses fine and silently TRUNCATES the value. So the check compares parsed results key by key rather than try/except-ing the load, which is also what makes it generalize past the two known characters. PyYAML wrote these files, so on disagreement it is authoritative and the file is the defect. The comparison has one implementation, called by the validator and by the existing test_decisions_lib agreement test, so the tool and the suite cannot drift. #688 — test_real_corpus_ceiling_sits_at_the_TAIL_BOUNDARY asserted p90 <= 60 <= p95 in the BLOCKING script-tests job. p90 sat exactly on the ceiling and the distribution above it is sparse, so one ordinary record moved p90 by twenty lines and reddened CI for whoever wrote it; it reproduced twice live (#672, #706) and both times the only in-scope remedy was trimming the new record to fit the constant. v5 splits the claim by robustness instead of hunting for a better single assertion. The blocking test now asserts only the coarse, non-ratcheting property (the ceiling flags a nonempty proper minority, 0 < fraction_over < 1/3); the fine tail-boundary claim is measured every run and REPORTED as a ::notice::, on the same reasoning stale_records already uses — a constant going out of date is the passage of corpus growth, not a defect in the commit under test. The fine property is still asserted, against synthetic distributions the test owns. The ceiling stays 60. Verification: 424 scripts/tests pass; ruff at baseline parity (47 before and after); the cross-check is clean on all 183 real records; a positive control pins that record_wing_faults alone still reports both hazard files as clean, so the new red cannot pass for the wrong reason; and a test demonstrates that appending #672's 62-line and #687's 107-line records to the real corpus does not red the blocking property.

timothyandClaude Opus 5	fefd11dffe	fix(620): signal corpus size per RECORD; the aggregate becomes an unthresholded trend ... Squashed from 7 commits (4 review rounds) to keep the rebase onto #621 tractable; the full round-by-round history is on PR #642. corpus was 5658/5600 — over budget and warning again — 3h35m after #619 put it at 5228, with nobody consolidating anything. So this does NOT re-baseline. An aggregate over a monotonically growing corpus can only ratchet; that is the "permanently red, therefore no signal" state #542 re-baselined away from, and growth is not even a smooth rate to plan against (the corpus FELL from 5089 to 5042 across four days, then gained 427 in one evening as two large records landed). Replaces it with a per-record prose ceiling (default 60), non-blocking, naming each record over it — not monotonic, so it can go red AND green, and it points at a file. The aggregate is still printed as an unthresholded trend notice, with record prose and non-record scaffolding reported separately because they are not the same unit. The GENERATED catalog is no longer counted at all: it gains one row per record and no consolidation can shrink it, which made the metric partly a record COUNT in a line-count costume. The calibration test took FOUR versions, and the failures are the durable lesson: v1 true by construction (`max(under) <= 60 < min(over)` over lists built by that test) v2 a gap WIDTH — a ceiling of 200 also sits in a wide gap, so it passed v3 fraction band + "clear air" vs the nearest record above — hostage to an unrelated record: one ordinary 62-line addition reddened it with the ceiling correctly placed, and the only remedy was to RAISE the ceiling. That is this very treadmill, as a hard failure in what #631 makes a blocking job. v4 `p90 <= ceiling <= p95` — the property stated directly and scale-free. Two rules recorded: a guard test must depend only on the thing it guards, and a threshold over a growing population must be expressed in that population's own terms. Candidates: all over-ceiling records assessed, each actioned or declined with a reason. The largest (scan.libraryfolder-unique-identity, 230 lines) is a legitimate DECLINE — a dozen-odd distinct traps whose only copy that is. Nothing pruned, so no archive or supersession was required. An automated redundancy metric is explicitly rejected. Also: `--budget` is accepted but announces its retirement rather than no-opping silently; the dead `budget_ok` parameter is gone; and five "untresholded" typos are fixed, one of which was propagating into the generated catalog row and MemPalace's per-key drawer.

timothy	3d720a6bc1	fix(621): exempt by exact path, not basename — my "no basename exemption" claim was false ... Re-review found the basename exemption was not actually removed: the code still dropped any wing-root README.md, and the docstring defended that with "no such file exists today; the catalog README lives in TOPIC_DIR". That is false — docs/decisions/archive/ README.md exists and parses to []. So the rule text in the record, the catalog row and ci-cd.md all asserted something the shipped code contradicted. It was also a live hole, not just wrong prose: dl.active_files() globs RECORDS_DIR.rglob with NO filter, so a future docs/decisions/records/README.md would be a corpus source while exempt from the guard — verbatim the hole this PR cites as the reason to stop using _NON_DECISION_FILES, reintroduced one directory over. Now exempt by exact RELATIVE PATH ({archive/README.md}), with a test pinning that the same basename in the ACTIVE wing is still faulted. Mutation-verified. DISAGREEING with one review finding, deliberately. It asked for the empty-wing anti-vacuity check to be symmetric across both wings. The semantics differ: zero ACTIVE records means the scan measured nothing and any clean result is vacuous, while zero ARCHIVED records is a normal state — nothing superseded yet, true of any young repo and every fresh clone before the first supersession. Making it symmetric fails a correct corpus (it reddened 7 tests). The asymmetry stays, with the reason in the code and a test pinning it so nobody "fixes" it back. 127 passed.

timothy	98b3e8715b	fix(621): close three exemption holes and pin the guard's own wiring, per cold review ... An independent cold-context review found the guard could be disabled or bypassed in four ways, one of them silently. HIGH — the guard's only wiring was untested. Deleting `wing_faults=record_wing_faults()` from main() left the ENTIRE suite green (120 passed) while a real block-scalar record vanished again with `decisions-validate: OK`. Every existing test either called the collector directly or handed validate() a hand-built list, so nothing pinned that main() ever invokes it — the #609 "prints OK while doing nothing" defect, one level up, inside the fix for that same defect. Independently reproduced before fixing. Now pinned by a monkeypatched sentinel test. MEDIUM — a record could escape by BASENAME. `_NON_DECISION_FILES` is a set of TOPIC-dir names ({README, migration-map, retrieval-eval}) and was applied to the wings too, so a genuine record at records/docs/retrieval-eval.md was skipped. Not hypothetical: the path<->key rule forces key `docs.retrieval-eval` to that exact filename, and dl.active_files() applies that filter only to the TOPIC_DIR glob — so the file would be a corpus source while exempt from the guard. Now nothing is exempt by basename. MEDIUM — the archive exemption was by LOCATION but justified by IDENTITY. Anything directly in archive/ was skipped, so a new unparseable archive/foo.md would vanish in the one directory left unwatched. Now exempt only if it really is a #610 stripped index: one keyless record with a known generated heading. LOW — parse-to-WRONG. `rule: >-` with an UNINDENTED continuation containing a colon parses to one VALID keyed record whose rule is literally ">-", plus a junk key, silently truncating the real value. PyYAML rejects that input, so the hand reader is more permissive than the writer. Now faulted via an unknown-frontmatter-key check. LOW — an absent or empty wing reported clean. Now loud: refusing to certify a corpus from a scan of nothing. Doc corrections, all measured rather than asserted: "all 167 records use single quoted lines" was false (117 of 168 rule: values are unquoted plain scalars — the invariant is single-LINE); the archive shape in the record, ci-cd.md and the rule: field said `archive/<area>/` where the code deliberately uses archive/** ; the mutation count is 10, not five; and the "converts ANY reader limitation" claim is softened to the class it actually covers. 125 passed.

timothy	b42df5f15f	fix(621): close a depth blind spot in the record-wing scan ... Adversarial self-review: the archive side used `glob("*/*.md")` while records used rglob. Both exempt the top-level stripped legacy files correctly, but the one-level glob would ALSO skip anything nested deeper, letting a record at archive/<area>/<sub>/x.md escape the check entirely. A path silently escaping the scan is precisely the failure mode this guard exists to close, so the exemption is now expressed as the actual condition — "directly in archive/" — rather than a glob shape that happens to match today's layout. Test added and mutation-verified: reverting to the one-level glob turns it red. 120 passed. Refs #621	2026-07-26 12:03:43 +02:00
timothy	0f565b1f7e	fix(621): make an unparseable decision record loud instead of silently invisible ... A file under the record wings that the dependency-free frontmatter reader cannot parse returned [] and simply vanished from the corpus: decisions_validate.py printed OK, build_decisions_catalog.py --check said "up to date", the record was absent, and nothing anywhere errored. Reproduced end-to-end with a YAML block scalar (`rule: >-`), which is the natural thing to reach for on this corpus's very long rule: values and which parsed fine under PyYAML before #610's dependency-free reader. An EXISTING record disappearing was already loud (the no-vanish diff check). The hole was a NEWLY ADDED record, which that check structurally cannot see — no base state to diff against — so the author's own PR looks clean. Hence a per-PATH check, not a per-construct or diff-driven one: asserting "this path yields exactly one keyed record" turns any present or future reader limitation from silent to loud in one move. Adds record_wing_files/record_wing_faults to decisions_validate.py, surfaced through validate() as ERRORS (a file in the record wings that is not a record is a mistake by definition) and reported first, since a file that failed to parse leaves every downstream check silently evaluating an incomplete corpus. The five top-level stripped legacy archive files are exempt — they are generated "Records formerly in this file" indexes, keyless by construction, and are what keeps older date-based pointers resolvable. _read_frontmatter is deliberately NOT extended to accept block scalars; rationale in the new docs.record-wing-parse-guard record. 8 tests, mutation-verified: with the check neutered 5 go red, restored all 119 pass. A live-corpus positive control asserts the wings are non-empty so a clean result can never be vacuous. Refs #621	2026-07-26 12:03:43 +02:00
timothy	52786a545c	feat(610): re-key the body-diff guard to key; enforce path<->key; pin the filesystem invariant ... Three Done-when items that were genuinely unfinished. I audited the checklist before ticking it rather than after, and these were not done. 1. BODY-DIFF GUARD RE-KEYED FROM HEADING TO `key`. Heading-keying made a pure RENAME look like a removal plus an unrelated addition, so retitling a record failed CI as an "unlogged removal" -- a trap that has bitten this repo before. Records are now MATCHED by key and REPORTED by heading (a key alone is not enough for a human to find the record). Demotion, which is inherently about a record losing its key, is detected on the heading axis instead, and a demoted record is no longer double-reported as removed. Key-matching is also what lets the comparison work straight through the legacy->frontmatter migration, since `key` survives both the format change and the move between files. Pinned by a test driving the REAL git-backed diff engine: retitle a record, same key, byte-identical prose -> removed/rewritten/demoted all empty. Mutation-verified: restoring heading-keying makes it fail with exactly "a retitle was reported as a removal". 2. PATH <-> KEY ENFORCED BY THE VALIDATOR. The filename is derived from the key, which is what makes one-active-per-key a filesystem property rather than a check -- but only if the two cannot drift. Now an error when they disagree, with legacy multi-record files explicitly exempt (they have no key-derived path to match). 3. ONE-ACTIVE-PER-KEY PINNED AS A FILESYSTEM PROPERTY. Two records sharing a key derive the same path, so the filesystem refuses the second; the migration aborts on a destination collision rather than silently overwriting. Both are now tested, the latter end-to-end through `main()`. Also fixed a vacuous assertion ruff caught in my own new test -- `assert X or True` is always true. Note on verification: my first positive control for the guard reported it NOT firing. That was the probe, not the code -- "load 340" appears in both the `sources:` frontmatter field and the body, and replace(...,1) hit the metadata copy, which is correctly token-free. Re-run against genuine body prose, the guard fires with exit 1. refs #610	2026-07-25 19:53:08 +02:00
timothy	fba5233caf	feat(610): split the decision corpus into one YAML-frontmatter file per record ... 168 records -> docs/decisions/records/<area>/<topic>.md (163 active, 23 dirs) and docs/decisions/archive/<area>/<topic>.md (5 archived). The filename IS the key, so one-active-record-per-key becomes a filesystem property rather than a validator check, and supersession becomes a `git mv`. WHY: the monolith was a concurrency problem before an aesthetic one. A 3,900-line append target made parallel sessions collide -- PR #605 and PR #614 both hit append-vs-append conflicts during routine rebases, and hand-resolving those inside the corpus is exactly the operation the rationale-rewrite guard exists to police. HOW IT IS VERIFIED: a ~170-file diff cannot be meaningfully read, so correctness does not rest on reading it. The parser was taught BOTH formats first, so the body-diff guard parses the old form at the merge-base and the new form at head -- the migration validates itself, no bypass. The proof is a field-level equivalence harness: 168 records before and after, zero lost, zero gained, zero field mismatches, zero rationale bodies differing. Reviewers should scrutinise the harness; it is the actual evidence. What measuring caught that reading would not have: - ~500 lines sit OUTSIDE any record -- decisions.md's lifecycle schema and each topic file's preamble, mostly the only copy. Source files are kept and stripped, never deleted. They also cannot be filed per-area: topic files hold several areas and 4 of 23 areas span several files. - Archive discovery was a non-recursive glob; after the split it found ZERO archived records, surfacing as four bogus "supersedes points to unknown key" errors rather than an obvious failure. - ~32 live docs point into the corpus BY DATE, which the split dangles. Each stripped file now ends with a generated "Records formerly in this file" index, which also rescues the identical breadcrumbs in old issue comments. - decisions.md's "In this file:" list was 97 same-file anchor bullets that the split makes WRONG, not merely stale. Dropped; the generated index replaces them with links that resolve. The equivalence harness now runs against a checked-in FIXTURE, not the live corpus. The earlier version migrated the real tree, which made it a one-shot: the moment the migration landed there was nothing left to move and the tests failed for reasons unrelated to the code. A fixture keeps them testing the SCRIPT rather than the repo's current state. Keys preserved verbatim, warts included: `sched` (12) and `scheduling` (1) remain two directories for one concept. Renaming a key is not a move -- it changes identity, breaks the equivalence proof, and invalidates MemPalace's per-key drawers. Taxonomy normalisation is separate work. refs #610	2026-07-25 19:45:09 +02:00
timothy	64b65fd2db	feat(610): generated where-did-it-go index on each stripped file ... Live docs point into the corpus BY DATE -- "see `decisions.md` 2026-07-10" -- about 32 such references across 12 files, plus the same form in historical issue comments. The split would dangle every one of them. Each stripped file now ends with a generated "Records formerly in this file" index: date, title, and a link to the record's new path. A reader following a date pointer lands on the file it names and resolves from there. That is far cheaper and less error-prone than rewriting 32 references by hand, and it also covers the issue-comment breadcrumbs, which cannot be rewritten at all. Caught while verifying it: the generated `## Records formerly in this file` heading is itself an H2, so the record parser counted one legacy-unmigrated record per stripped file -- the notice went 0 -> 6. Same treatment as the existing `## Index` section: skip it by name. SKIP_HEADINGS moved to decisions_lib as the single source of truth, since three modules now need it. Found by reading the validator's notice output on a trial migration, not by inspection -- the corpus still validated OK, so nothing else would have flagged it.	2026-07-25 19:08:58 +02:00
timothy	1af65b7bee	feat(610): budget counts PROSE, excluding YAML frontmatter ... The line budget exists to bound how much narrative a reader or agent must get through. Under the split each record carries ~11 frontmatter lines plus two fences -- 1789 lines across 166 records -- which are the structured restatement of what used to be one dense backtick line. Counting them inflates the metric without any new knowledge being added. Stated plainly because it flatters the number: this is a change of METRIC, not a consolidation. It re-measures the same corpus, it does not shrink it. Whole-file counting put the migrated corpus at 6837 against a 5600 budget; prose-only puts the same content at ~5048. The consolidation work is still worth doing -- it is simply no longer being signalled by a warning that was partly measuring punctuation. Inert pre-migration: no legacy file has frontmatter, so the branch is never taken and today's number is unchanged.	2026-07-25 19:08:58 +02:00
timothy	ef67be924c	feat(610): teach the validator and catalog the split layout ... Both surfaced in a trial migration against a disposable copy of the real corpus, not from reading: - Archive discovery was a NON-recursive glob. After the split, archived records live at archive/<area>/<topic>.md, so every one of them became invisible -- which surfaced as four bogus "supersedes points to unknown key" errors rather than as an obvious "no archive found". rglob at both sites. - Catalog links: a record is now a FILE, so the link is a plain relative path with no anchor -- nothing to slug, nothing to keep in sync with a heading. The legacy anchor form is kept for records still living inside a multi-record file, so the catalog is correct on either side of the migration.	2026-07-25 19:08:58 +02:00
timothyandClaude Opus 5	e9f4444fec	docs(609): qualify two comments as non-merge, matching the implementation ...

timothyandClaude Opus 5	f00dfde0c5	docs(609): correct the --no-merges rationale — merges are discouraged, not blocked ... Review Low x2, both correct and both the stale-comment class: The claim that prepush-rebase-check.sh forbids merging main into a PR branch is false. That hook refuses a branch that is BEHIND origin/main; a merge makes origin/main an ancestor, so the push is allowed. Merging main in is discouraged by convention only. So --no-merges does cost a real false negative: an author who marks ONLY a conflict-resolving merge commit gets a legitimate rewrite rejected. Keeping --no-merges and stating the trade explicitly -- that failure is loud and costs one extra commit, whereas honoring forge-composed merge bodies disables the guard silently, which is #609 itself. The module comment also still claimed a quoted example cannot arm the guard, which contradicts the residual the decision record now states accurately. Aligned both, and narrowed the record's Rule line from "some commit" to "some NON-MERGE commit" so the stated contract matches the implementation. No logic change -- comments, docstring, record prose and regenerated catalog only. fixes #609 Decisions-Edit: yes Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-25 18:36:07 +02:00
timothyandClaude Opus 5	cc9481f541	fix(609): review fixes — exclude merge commits, unfold folded values, correct the fail-posture doc ... Cross-family review (High + Medium + Low), all three reproduced before fixing: High -- on a pull_request event actions/checkout lands on a synthetic merge commit whose body the forge composes from the PR description, so a description ending in an example marker armed a guard no author armed. Excluded merge commits from the range; merging main into a PR branch is separately forbidden, so no author-written commit is skipped. Medium -- a folded value (`no` + continuation ` yes`) was split into independent lines and the continuation armed on its own, inverting the value the author wrote. Read with `unfold` so the value is judged whole. Low -- the module docstring promised fail-open while marker resolution deliberately fails closed. The posture is right; the docstring was wrong. Documented as the one exception. Both new negative controls verified red against the unfixed matcher. Decision record amended to state the residual honestly rather than overclaim: a quoted example that is the FINAL paragraph of an ordinary commit is a trailer by git's own grammar and does arm. What the change buys is that discussing the marker can no longer disable anything. fixes #609 Decisions-Edit: yes Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-25 18:29:46 +02:00
timothyandClaude Opus 5	c597c49f02	fix(609): arm the decisions body-diff with a git trailer, not a bare substring ... The rationale-edit exemption was a substring test over the whole commit range, so any message containing the literal marker armed it -- including prose explaining why no marker was needed, which is how it fired live in PR #605: a green --base/--head run that was vacuous on the body-diff dimension, in the one PR that hand-resolved a merge conflict inside the corpus the guard exists to police. Now read as an affirmative `Decisions-Edit:` git trailer. Git parses trailers only in the final paragraph, so a quoted example message cannot arm it -- which matters because this commit and its decision record both quote one. A non-affirmative value (`no`) does not arm it either; the retired substring arms nothing and gets a ::warning:: nudge. Tests: negative controls (prose mention, quoted mid-body trailer, `no` value, retired substring) plus positive controls (trailer, uppercase, alongside Co-Authored-By). All four negative controls verified red against the old matcher. fixes #609 Decisions-Edit: yes Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-25 18:21:12 +02:00
timothy	75139bbf31	fix(603): close four defects found in adversarial review of the stale-after fields ... 1. `date.fromisoformat` is not a YYYY-MM-DD validator. On Python >= 3.11 it also accepts ISO basic format ("20270101") and week dates ("2027-W01-1"), so a malformed-looking value passed the blocking check — and which forms parse depends on the interpreter, meaning the same corpus could validate differently on a dev machine and on the runner (pr-checks.yml pins only python-version '3.x'). Knock-on: the catalog's Review-due section sorts on the raw STRING, so an accepted "20270101" sorted AFTER "2027-01-15" ('-' < '0'), contradicting the section's own "sorted soonest-first" text. Gate on ^\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}$ first, which fixes both — a fixed-width zero-padded form makes string sort == date sort. 2. A present-but-empty `stale-after:` was collapsed to None by `or None` in the parser and then skipped by a truthiness guard in the validator, so it passed as "absent" — a field that silently never fires, which is the exact failure mode the blocking check exists to prevent. Keep "" distinct from None and test with `is not None`. 3. `test_catalog_is_date_independent` was partly vacuous: with no date in either render, both sides were trivially equal after the .replace(). It did still catch an injected clock-derived marker, but it passed with the feature deleted. Assert the dates are present. 4. The malformed-date check ran only over the active set, exempting archive records. Staleness is moot there, but a typo is still a typo — check both wings. Adds regression tests for each, plus a Review-due row for a topic-file record (pinning the `../decisions.md` vs bare-filename link forms).	2026-07-25 15:22:50 +02:00
timothy	0ad02db651	feat(603): adopt OKF's optional stale-after and Sources decision-record metadata ... Evaluated the Open Knowledge Format (GoogleCloudPlatform/knowledge-catalog okf v0.2, scaccogatto/okf-skills) as a replacement for our decision-record system and rejected it: its conformance rules are deliberately permissive exactly where ours are strict (broken links, unknown types and missing fields must all be tolerated; `deprecated` points at no successor), and its stable identity is the file path, which the breadcrumb rule tells agents not to trust. Adopted two of its optional families instead, additively: - `stale-after: YYYY-MM-DD` on the metadata line — marks a record asserting an outside-world fact as due for re-confirmation. Absolute date, no TTL. - `**Sources:**` in the metadata block — the evidence a record rests on, as distinct from `Signals:` (recall keywords). Neither is required; absence is never an error. A malformed `stale-after` is blocking (it would silently never fire), but a past-due record is only a non-blocking `::notice::` — going stale is the passage of time, not a defect in whatever commit is under test. The catalog's new "Review due" section renders the date only and never a clock-derived verdict, so it cannot drift `--check` red on a calendar boundary with no commit touching the corpus. No backfill: no existing record adopts either field here. fixes #603	2026-07-25 15:22:50 +02:00

timothy	12e5c3d26f	docs(542): record the workflow lore, then prune the kickoff doc to instructions ... Timothy asked why the kickoff handoff doc stores historical narrative when it should be instructions. It shouldn't — its own lore section is chartered as "STANDING workflow/orchestration rules only" with the why belonging in docs/decisions.md. But an inventory of every bullet against the decision corpus inverted the premise: only ~8 of ~38 were actually covered. 19 had no record anywhere and 11 more were half-covered, so that single file was the ONLY copy of the mandatory review rubric, the whole CI-triage vocabulary, the build-concurrency policy, the H12 session-end audit, and the plumbing-merge recipe. Pruning first would have destroyed them. So the records come first. New topic file docs/decisions/workflow-process.md carries 32 records (ci.*, process.*, testing.*) covering every NONE and PARTIAL the inventory found, including the Gitea `?milestones=` no-op bug whose only copy was the archived selector section this prune deletes. Only then the prune: HARD CONSTRAINTS and the lore section become one- or two-line rules, each citing the decision key that holds its evidence, and the 40-line "Archived — do not follow" section is gone. 636 -> 353 lines, with every cited key verified to resolve against the corpus.
