## Version Clarifications

### Version History (Validated via Git Tags)

```bash
$ git tag --list "v0.1.*" | sort -V
v0.1.4
v0.1.5
v0.1.6
v0.1.6.1
v0.1.7
v0.1.8
v0.1.9
v0.1.10
v0.1.11
v0.1.12  ← Current release
```

### Version Status

- **v0.1.12**: ✅ Released (2025-12-29) - Current stable production version
- **v0.1.13**: 🔄 In Development - Release notes prepared, feature complete, awaiting tag
- **v0.1.14**: 📋 Planned - Future improvements in roadmap

### Source of Truth

The `workspace.package.version` in root `Cargo.toml` (line 16) is the authoritative source:
```toml
[workspace.package]
version = "0.1.12"
```

All other documentation should reference this value for current version information.

## Remaining Work

### 1. Architecture Documentation (Priority: HIGH)

**Files**: ~5 files requiring comprehensive updates

| File | Current Status | Required Updates | Estimated Effort |
|------|----------------|------------------|------------------|
| `agent_docs/service_architecture.md` | Partially accurate | System design overview | 2-3 hours |
| `agent_docs/service_communication_patterns.md` | Partially accurate | Inter-service patterns | 2-3 hours |
| `agent_docs/database_schema.md` | Unknown | Schema documentation | 1-2 hours |
| Additional architecture docs | Unknown | Comprehensive review | 2-4 hours |

**Issues Identified**:
- May not reflect current codebase structure
- Component relationships need validation
- Storage architecture needs dual-layer clarification (Turso + redb)

### 2. Research Documentation (Priority: MEDIUM)

**Files**: 22 files in `plans/research/`

| Category | File Count | Status |
|----------|------------|--------|
| Phase Summaries | 8 | Recent, likely accurate |
| Best Practices | 3 | Need validation |
| Research Analysis | 11 | Mix of recent/historical |

**Recommendation**: Batch review by topic (PREMem, GENESIS, Spatiotemporal, Benchmarking)

### 3. Additional Documentation (Priority: LOW-MEDIUM)

**Agent Documentation** (6 files):
- `agent_docs/building_the_project.md` - Validate build instructions
- `agent_docs/running_tests.md` - Update test procedures
- `agent_docs/code_conventions.md` - Verify current practices
- Others need review for currency

**General Documentation** (5 files):
- `docs/LOCAL_DATABASE_SETUP.md` - Validate setup procedures
- `docs/YAML_VALIDATION.md` - Check validation rules
- `docs/QUALITY_GATES.md` - Update gate criteria
- `TESTING.md` - Comprehensive test guide
- `DEPLOYMENT.md` - Production deployment

### 4. Benchmark Results (Priority: MEDIUM)

**Required Validation**:
- Performance targets vs. actual measurements
- P95 latency claims (Episode Creation: ~2.5µs, etc.)
- Benchmark methodology documentation
- Regression testing procedures

**Status**: Claims appear ambitious; need independent validation

## Recommendations

### Immediate Actions (This Week)

1. **Establish Cargo.toml as Single Source of Truth**
   - Create script to validate all documentation against workspace.version
   - Automate version consistency checks
   - Implement pre-commit hook for version updates

2. **Run Complete Test Suite**
   - Execute `cargo test --workspace` to get accurate pass rate
   - Update quality metrics with real data
   - Identify and address any failing tests

3. **Update Architecture Documentation**
   - Prioritize `service_architecture.md` and `service_communication_patterns.md`
   - Validate against current codebase structure
   - Document dual storage architecture (Turso durable + redb cache)

### Short-term Actions (Next 2 Weeks)

4. **Create Automated Documentation Validation Script**
   ```bash
   # Proposed script capabilities:
   # - Validate version consistency across files
   # - Check file LOC against actual source
   # - Verify file count and module structure
   # - Cross-reference key metrics (unwrap count, test coverage)
   ```
   - Output: HTML/PDF validation report
   - Integration: CI pipeline validation step

5. **Batch Update Research Documentation**
   - Review Phase 1-4 summaries for accuracy
   - Validate best practice guides against current code
   - Archive or consolidate outdated research

6. **Validate Benchmark Claims**
   - Run full benchmark suite
   - Verify P95 latency measurements
   - Document benchmark methodology

### Long-term Actions (Next Month)

7. **Implement Documentation Maintenance Schedule**
   - Weekly: Status updates (already implemented)
   - Monthly: Metric validation and updates
   - Quarterly: Comprehensive documentation audit
   - Per-release: Update all references before tagging

8. **Establish Documentation Quality Gates**
   - Version consistency check (required)
   - Metric accuracy check (required)
   - Link validation (recommended)
   - Formatting compliance (recommended)

## Lessons Learned

### Root Causes of Documentation Drift

1. **Multiple Update Points** - Different teams updating different files independently
2. **Manual Updates Only** - No automation to ensure consistency
3. **Delayed Updates** - Documentation updated after features ship, not during
4. **No Validation** - No checks to ensure documentation matches code
5. **Version Confusion** - Ambiguous status of unreleased versions

### Best Practices Established

1. **Single Source of Truth** - Cargo.toml version is authoritative
2. **Archival Process** - Historical documents moved to dated archive
3. **Status Snapshots** - Regular status update documents
4. **Clear Version Status** - Explicit release/in-development labels
5. **Metric Validation** - Cross-check claims against actual code

1. **Run Test Suite** - Get accurate pass rate and coverage metrics
2. **Validate Benchmark Claims** - Verify performance targets
3. **Update Code During Documentation** - Keep docs in sync with code changes
4. **Report Discrepancies** - Flag documentation issues immediately

### For Project Management

1. **Allocate Resources** - Time for architecture documentation rewrite
2. **Approve Maintenance Schedule** - Establish quarterly audit cadence
3. **Integrate CI Checks** - Add documentation validation to CI pipeline
