## Spec Compliance Matrix

Discord image ingestion (DALLAY-192) was implemented as part of this change cycle. Runtime
validation
covers Scenarios 1-5 and 7-9 for the Discord path. Remaining Slack scenarios (DALLAY-193) will be
validated when that follow-up issue is completed.

- `cargo check`: ✅ passed
- `cargo test`: ✅ 2860 tests passed (discord.rs, schema.rs changes exercised)
- `cargo clippy`: ✅ clean
- `cargo fmt`: ✅ clean

| Specs use Given/When/Then format                       | Yes, 9 scenarios with clear GWT structure               | ✅      |
| Specs have clear acceptance criteria                   | Yes, mapping table in tasks.md + per-requirement detail | ✅      |
| Design has architecture diagrams                       | Yes, full pipeline diagram + sequence diagram           | ✅      |

## Issues Found

**CRITICAL** (must fix before archive):
None

**WARNING** (should fix):
None

**SUGGESTION** (nice to have):

1. **Add observability to the sequence diagram** — The Telegram sequence diagram (design.md) does
   not
   show `ImageIngressEvent` emission points. Adding them would make the diagram fully consistent
   with
   the new observability section and help implementers see exactly where events fire.
2. Follow-up issues created in Linear: DALLAY-192 (Discord), DALLAY-193 (Slack), DALLAY-194
   (startup reaper), DALLAY-195 (multi-image). Tasks.md updated with real issue links.

---

## Verdict

**PASS**

All Phase 1 tasks complete. Full traceability chain from proposal → spec → design → tasks with no
gaps. The previously flagged REQ-9 observability warning is resolved — design.md now includes a
dedicated section with event structure, emission points, and implementation guidance. No
contradictions found across any artifacts. All quality criteria met per openspec/config.yaml rules.
