# v2.7 Milestone Audit

Status: passed

## Scope Closed

- Phase `181`: Consultation-Followup Auto Execution
- Phase `181.1`: Selected Candidate Route Advancement
- Phase `181.2`: Fresh Consultation-Followup Selection Replay Proof

## Requirements Coverage

Score: `4/4` requirements satisfied

- `CFS-01` satisfied by Phase `181` through an executable
  `consultation_followup` step inside the bounded auto-action loop.
- `CFS-02` satisfied by Phase `181` through durable consultation and selection
  artifacts under `consultation_followup_selection.active.json|md`.
- `CFS-03` satisfied by Phase `181.1` through queue materialization and public
  surfaces that now advance onto one selected staged candidate.
- `CFS-04` satisfied by Phase `181.2` through one isolated replay packet that
  proves consultation-followup execution and candidate-specific route
  advancement while earlier staged-L2 baselines remain green.

## Verification Evidence

- Phase `181` service / auto-action execution:
  - `python -m pytest research/knowledge-hub/tests/test_aitp_service.py -k "consultation_followup or continue_recorded_as_steady" -q`
  - result: `3 passed`
- Phase `181.1` queue advancement:
  - `python -m pytest research/knowledge-hub/tests/test_runtime_scripts.py -k "advances_to_selected_consultation_candidate_when_selection_exists or advances_past_staged_l2_review_after_later_continue" -q`
  - result: `2 passed`
- Phase `181.2` replay proof:
  - `python -m pytest research/knowledge-hub/tests/test_runtime_scripts.py -k "consultation_followup_selection_acceptance or staged_l2_advancement_acceptance_script_runs_on_isolated_work_root or staged_l2_reentry_acceptance_script_runs_on_isolated_work_root or first_source_followthrough_acceptance_script_runs_on_isolated_work_root" -q`
  - result: `4 passed`
  - `python -m pytest research/knowledge-hub/tests/test_runtime_profiles_and_projections.py -k "continue_recorded_h_plane_as_steady" -q`
  - result: `1 passed`

## Cross-Phase Integration

- Phase `181` first turned `consultation_followup` from a visible-but-manual
  route into an executable bounded loop step with durable receipts.
- Phase `181.1` then advanced queue materialization and public surfaces from
  generic consultation to a selected staged-candidate follow-up.
- Phase `181.2` closed the milestone with one replayable fresh-topic proof that
  the same topic can execute consultation-followup and advance onto the chosen
  staged candidate without regressing the earlier staged-L2 chain.

## Audit Notes

- This milestone stayed narrow: it closes consultation-followup execution and
  candidate selection closure, not split / validate / promote route choice.
- No unsatisfied requirement remains in the `v2.7` traceability table.
- The repaired baseline now reaches one selected staged candidate honestly
  instead of stalling on generic consultation language.

## Accepted Open Gaps

- Once `selected_consultation_candidate_followup` becomes the selected route,
  a later bounded `continue` still leaves the same topic on that
  candidate-specific summary instead of deriving the first deeper route choice.
- The same fresh topic has not yet been proven to choose one bounded next route
  such as split, validate, or promote after the candidate-selection step.
