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

"""Parse ErsatzTV decision records from docs/decisions.md and docs/decisions/*.md.
|
|
|
|
A decision record is a Markdown H2 section. A *migrated* record carries a visible metadata
|
|
block as its first non-blank content:
|
|
|
|
## 2026-07-17 — Title … (#406)
|
|
`key: ci.runner-placement` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-17` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
|
|
**Rule:** one-line current rule.
|
|
**Signals:** concept · paths: a/b.yml · issues: #406
|
|
**Mechanics:** docs/ci-cd.md → CI lanes
|
|
<rationale prose …>
|
|
|
|
An H2 with no metadata line is treated as status `legacy-unmigrated` (migration target).
|
|
|
|
Two OPTIONAL fields (ersatztv#603, adopted from OKF v0.2's lifecycle/provenance families) may also
|
|
appear — `stale-after: YYYY-MM-DD` on the metadata line, and a `**Sources:**` line in the metadata
|
|
block. Absence is never an error; see decisions_validate for how they are checked.
