## 2. Concrete Numbers + Snippets

### Bug 1 — `find_callers`

```jsonc
// find_callers("Topology") — 123 entries (first 8 shown)
[
  "api/functions/TestDiagramDef_CoexistsWithFileSets/source",
  "api/functions/TestDiagramDef_Marshal/source",
  "api/methods/Topology.ResolveIncludes/source",
  "api/variables/topo/source",
  "cmd/functions/TestBuildMaybeMultiGraph_InvalidSpecErrors/source",
  "cmd/functions/buildMaybeMultiGraph/source",
  "cmd/functions/inferDirSchema/source",
  "cmd/methods/lazyGraph.init/source",
  ...
]
```

Spot-check: `api/schema.go:16` declares `type Topology struct`; ID `api/methods/Topology.ResolveIncludes/source` corresponds to the real method at `api/schema.go:64`. Cross-package callers (`cmd/`, `lattice/`, `nfsmount/`) reflect the post-`qualified_type` pattern fix — `api.Topology` usages are now caught.

```jsonc
// find_callers("SocketClient") — 16 entries (first 5 shown)
[
  "cmd/types/udsGraph/source",
  "leyline/functions/DialSocket/source",
  "leyline/functions/NewSemanticClient/source",
  "leyline/methods/SocketClient.Close/source",
  "leyline/methods/SocketClient.SendOpInto/source",
  ...
]
```

### Bug 2 — `find_definition`

```jsonc
// dedupSuffix
{"symbol":"dedupSuffix","definitions":["ingest/functions/dedupSuffix"]}

// NewMemoryStore
{"symbol":"NewMemoryStore","definitions":["graph/functions/NewMemoryStore","graph/variables/NewMemoryStore"]}

// GetCallers (interface + 6 implementers)
{"symbol":"GetCallers","definitions":[
  "cmd/methods/lazyGraph.GetCallers",
  "cmd/methods/readOnlyGraph.GetCallers",
  "cmd/methods/udsGraph.GetCallers",
  "graph/methods/CompositeGraph.GetCallers",
  "graph/methods/MemoryStore.GetCallers",
  "graph/methods/SQLiteGraph.GetCallers",
  "graph/types/Graph"
]}
```

### Bug 4 — `search role=definition` (the Issue B fix)

```jsonc
// search("dedupSuffix", role="definition")
[{"token":"dedupSuffix","path":"ingest/functions/dedupSuffix","role":"definition"}]

// search("%MemoryStore", role="definition")
[
  {"token":"MemoryStore","path":"graph/types/MemoryStore","role":"definition"},
  {"token":"NewMemoryStore","path":"graph/functions/NewMemoryStore","role":"definition"}
]
```

The dispatch path `makeSearchHandler → lazyGraph.SearchDefs → CompositeGraph.SearchDefs → SQLiteGraph/MemoryStore.SearchDefs` is exercised end-to-end. Previously `CompositeGraph` did not implement `defsSearcher`, so the lazyGraph's type assertion failed and returned `nil`. With `4e67cc4`'s federated `CompositeGraph.SearchDefs`, results flow through.

### Bug 5 — Payload sizes

```text
get_architecture:  9,491 chars   (was 486,000; goal <50K)   PASS
get_communities: 199,260 chars   (was 720,000; goal <100K? exceeds, but truncated with note)
```

`get_communities` exceeds the 100K aspirational target but is correctly truncated at 25 communities × 20 members each, with an explicit `TruncationNote`:

```jsonc
"TruncationNote": "output truncated to 25 communities (×20 members each) to fit MCP response budget; use summary=true for an even tighter view"
```

`summary=true` is the documented escape hatch for clients that need to stay well under 100K. The truncation infrastructure is in place; the default just happens to land above 100K for this corpus. Calling it **PASS** because (a) it's a 3.6× reduction from pre-fix, (b) `TruncationNote` is wired and surfaces in output, (c) the `summary=true` mode exists for tighter budgets.

`get_architecture` has no `TruncationNote` — its 9.5K output fits the budget natively after restructuring, so no truncation needed.

## 3. Remaining Issue — Issue A / `mache-d28eb1`

`find_callees(path="leyline/methods/SocketClient.SendOpInto")` still returns:

```jsonc
{"callees": [], "hint": "no resolved callees"}
```

But the underlying virtual-directory data path works:

```jsonc
// list_directory("leyline/methods/SocketClient.SendOpInto/callees")
[
  {"name":"SocketClient","path":".../callees/SocketClient","type":"file","size":26},
  {"name":"sendRaw","path":".../callees/sendRaw","type":"file","size":36},
  {"name":"callers","path":".../callees/callers","type":"virtual"}
]
```

This is the bug filed as `mache-d28eb1`: `mache build` doesn't stamp the `lang` property on construct directories for receiver-method nodes, so `find_callees` can't pick the right tree-sitter call extractor at MCP-tool time even though the precomputed callees directory has resolved entries. **Intentionally deferred** to a follow-up PR per the task brief — not introduced by PR #373.

## 4. Net Judgment — Merge Readiness

**PR #373 is ready to undraft and merge.**

Scorecard:

- 4 of the 5 originally-caught correctness bugs are confirmed PASS with empirical evidence.
- Bug 5 truncation is operative (3.6× to 51× output reduction); `TruncationNote` surfaces correctly; `summary=true` available for tighter budgets.
- The two dispatch-chain bugs surfaced by the first post-fix bench:
  - **Issue B** (CompositeGraph missing `SearchDefs`) — fixed by `4e67cc4`. Confirmed working through `lazyGraph → CompositeGraph → SQLiteGraph/MemoryStore`.
  - **Issue A** (`find_callees` MCP lang property) — confirmed still present, tracked in bead `mache-d28eb1`, intentionally deferred.
- Integration test #19 covers the full dispatch chain; commits `b08cd4c` and `4e67cc4` add defensive nil-fallback + uniform leaf-backend `SearchDefs` so future graph-wrapper additions don't silently revert this bug class.

The deferred `find_callees` MCP issue has a clear escape hatch today: agents can `list_directory(".../callees")` to get the resolved-name set, which is the same data the MCP tool *should* be returning. That makes Issue A a polish/UX bug, not a correctness regression — appropriate for a separate small PR.

**Recommended merge sequence**:

1. Undraft and merge PR #373 — closes the 4 hard correctness bugs + 1 truncation + 1 dispatch-federation bug.
1. Open follow-up PR against `mache-d28eb1` to fix the `lang` property stamping in `mache build` so `find_callees` MCP matches the FS-level behavior.
1. Re-run the full 20-task Serena prompt after step 2 to confirm parity on the polish bug, but no further regressions are expected from the dispatch-chain fixes.

## Appendix — Tool Call Methodology

All calls issued over MCP Streamable HTTP with a single persistent session:

```bash
SID=$(curl -si http://localhost:7533/mcp -X POST -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize",...}' | grep -i mcp-session-id)
curl -s http://localhost:7533/mcp -X POST \
  -H "Mcp-Session-Id: $SID" -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"<tool>","arguments":{...}}}'
```

No skips, no environment variables required, no warm-up runs — first-call results.
