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	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
timothyandClaude Opus 4.8	ba39ca65ae	feat(521): decision-record parser (decisions_lib) ... Adds scripts/decisions_lib.py, the shared parser for ErsatzTV decision records (docs/decisions.md + docs/decisions/*.md). Parses H2 sections into Record dataclasses, distinguishing migrated records (visible metadata block: key/status/since/supersedes/superseded-by + Rule/ Signals/Mechanics) from legacy-unmigrated ones with no metadata line. scripts/ is now an importable package (scripts/__init__.py, scripts/tests/__init__.py) so later tools can `import scripts.decisions_lib`.
