# Session 2026-05-23 — Full v0.3 audit + Roadmap reconciliation

> Audit log for the 2026-05-23 reconciliation session. Triggered by an
> operator question: *"Plugin API — wasn't that part of v0.3?"*
> The answer turned out to be yes, and the cycle had drifted past it.
> This file is the full account.
>
> **Post-audit update (2026-05-24)**: the audit's central finding —
> Plugin contract 1/8 (12.5%) — was resolved within 36 hours. The full
> 8-PR sequence landed on `origin/main` via PR #409 / #410 / #411 /
> #412 / #413 / #418 / #419 / #420 / #421 (plus #422 CI hardening).
>
> **Final post-audit closure (2026-05-24 marathon session)**: every
> remaining v0.3 gate item closed in a single 19-PR marathon session.
> Module size 5 violations cleared via Stage C 5-PR sequence (#427 /
> #428 / #429 / #431 / #432). Audit Phase 4b-2 (16 JSONL writer
> sites) cleared via Stage D.1 (#430). CR-E (the last Done-when
> criterion) cleared via Stage B 4-PR sequence (#433 / #434 / #435 /
> #436). PLATFORM_READINESS Gate v0.3 fully satisfied.
>
> §1 / §3 / §4 / §5 / §7 / §9 / §11 / §12 below have been annotated
> with the closure state in italic call-outs. The audit body itself
> is kept verbatim as a snapshot of the 2026-05-23 state — the reader
> can diff intent (audit) against outcome (call-outs) without losing
> either narrative.

## 0. Why this audit

Through 2026-05-21~22, the cycle shipped 15+ merged PRs across i18n
sweep, reasoning-cap defaults, architecture/roadmap memos, V3'
research, and promo audit-trail tracks. The work was sound but
**diverged from the v0.3 main deliverable list in `ROADMAP.md`**.
The operator's spot-check exposed the gap.

A retrospective audit at this point — before v0.4 (Layer 4) entry —
is the cheapest way to surface what landed, what didn't, and what
re-entry path is honest. The output is:

1. This file — full audit + staged re-entry plan
2. `ROADMAP.md` v0.3 section — checkbox truthing + new
   "v0.3-only follow-ups discovered post-design" subsection

---

## 1. v0.3 Plugin contract — the largest gap

`docs/design/v0.3-plugin-api.md` pre-registered an 8-PR sequence
(PR-C2 / C3 / C5 / C6 / C7 / C8 / C9 / C10). Status as of
`origin/main` snapshot 2026-05-23:

| PR | Scope | Status | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| PR-C2 | 4 Protocols (`OntologyPack` / `PromptPack` / `UIPanel` / `Scorer`) + `errors.py` | ✅ | `core/plugins/base.py` + `core/plugins/errors.py`; PR #344 |
| PR-C3 | `loader.py` + `manifest.py` + `registry.py` (full 4-type loader) | ❌ | Files do not exist in `core/plugins/`. Partial loader for *reasoning backends only* at `core/reasoning/backends/_load_plugins` from PR #326. |
| PR-C5 | `packs/general/` extract (dogfood gate) | ❌ | Directory does not exist. |
| PR-C6 | `JAMES_WORKSPACE=` env var | ❌ | Zero matches in code (`grep -r JAMES_WORKSPACE core/ server_llmwiki.py`). |
| PR-C7 | `docs/PLUGIN_AUTHORING.md` | ❌ | File does not exist. |
| PR-C8 | `docs/VERSIONING.md` (SemVer + 12-month deprecation) | ❌ | File does not exist. |
| PR-C9 | CI eval contract for `packs/*/` (RAGAS + STEP-N enforcement) | ❌ | RAGAS itself is integrated (v0.2 Axis 2, PRs #51/#64/#66) but the per-pack enforcement gate is not yet wired. |
| PR-C10 | `scripts/dogfood_check.py` + CI hook | ❌ | File does not exist. |

**1/8 landed = 12.5%.** This is the single largest remaining v0.3
deliverable.

> **Post-audit (2026-05-24):** the table above is the 2026-05-23

> remaining v0.3 deliverable; CR-E (§2) inherits that position.

## 2. Change Request — CR-E still pending

CR-A through CR-D shipped in v0.2.x (scoping → state machine + apply
dispatcher + wiki_entity → workspace UI panel → run_jobs apply path,
PRs #237/#243/#239/#240).

**CR-E** (self-evolution approvals routed through
`core/change_request.py` as a shadow row) was descoped from v0.2.x
due to regression risk on the 4 locked JSONL-shape test files +
eval-gate + rollback chain. It is **still pending** at 2026-05-23.

This is one of the four "Done when" criteria of v0.3 (per `ROADMAP.md`).

> **Post-audit (2026-05-24):** Stage B 4-PR sequence closes CR-E.
> #433 added `TARGET_SELF_EVO_PATCH` + `TARGET_SELF_EVO_PROPOSAL`
> with no-op apply dispatchers (zero behaviour change). #434 wired
> `/admin/patch/approve` shadow write + close on bench-pass /
> apply_failed / regression. #435 did the same for
> `/admin/proposals/{id}/approve|reject`. #436 unified the audit
> query via `/admin/patch/audit?include_shadow=true` (default ON in
> the endpoint, OFF in the library function for back-compat). Dual-
> write permanent: legacy `james_patch_log.jsonl` +
> `james_evo_log.jsonl` stay authoritative; CR row is additive
> shadow. All 4 locked JSONL-shape tests stay green.

## 3. Module size gate violations (CLAUDE.md rule #5: < 20 KB)

`find core/ -name "*.py" | wc -c` reveals five files over the 20 KB
gate as of `origin/main` snapshot 2026-05-23:

| File | Size | Over by |
|---|---|---|
| `core/wiki_generator.py` | **51 KB** | +31 KB (≈ 2.5×) |
| `core/cascade.py` | 24 KB | +4 KB |
| `core/character_profile.py` | 24 KB | +4 KB |
| `core/security_layer.py` | 23 KB | +3 KB |
| `core/graph_editor.py` | 20 KB | +0.1 KB (boundary) |

`core/wiki_generator.py` is the immediate concern — Knowledge Cascade
Phase A-E, PR-11 event entity, and the i18n `label_key` sweep have
each added material without an offsetting split.

The pre-existing carryover item from v0.2.x (`core/memory/store.py`
split, 21 KB at v0.2 close) was **incidentally resolved** — file is
now ~17 KB on origin/main due to unrelated refactors. No explicit
split happened, but the rule violation no longer applies.

> **Post-audit (2026-05-24):** all five violations cleared by Stage C
> 5-PR sequence. Pure refactor — no signatures, return shapes, or
> behaviour changed.
>
> | File | Before | After (max sub-module) | PR |
> |---|---|---|---|
> | `core/wiki_generator.py` | 51 KB monolith | 6-file mixin package, max 17 KB | #427 |
> | `core/cascade.py` | 24 KB monolith | 4-file package, max 12 KB | #428 |
> | `core/character_profile.py` | 24 KB monolith | 4-file mixin package, max 11 KB | #429 |
> | `core/security_layer.py` | 23 KB monolith | 5-file package, max 7.2 KB (D.1 shrunk first) | #431 |
> | `core/graph_editor.py` | 20 KB monolith | 3-file package, max 11 KB | #432 |
>
> PLATFORM_READINESS Gate v0.3 dimension A satisfied.

## 4. v0.2.x carryover follow-ups

| Item | v0.3 plan | Actual status |
|---|---|---|
| `core/memory/store.py` split | required (21 KB → < 20 KB) | ✅ Incidentally resolved — now ~17 KB |
| Audit Phase 4b-2 — remove 16 JSONL writer sites | "after 2–4 weeks of production mirror monitoring" | ❌ Still pending. `core/security_layer.py` retains ~17 log / JSONL writer references; production mirror window has elapsed; PR is the next safe step. |

> **Post-audit (2026-05-24):** Audit Phase 4b-2 cleared via Stage D.1
> (#430). 14 files touched, ~158 lines removed / 47 added. Pattern:
> each writer keeps its `entry = {...}` dict + `mirror_*` call to
> `core/audit_bridge.py`; only the `try: open(JSONL_PATH).write(
> json.dumps(entry))` block + orphaned path constants + `import json`
> removed. SQLite `audit_log` table is now the sole sink.
> `tests/test_router_capability.py` migrated to the
> `mirror_to_audit_db` capture-via-mock pattern (9/9 pass).

## 5. v0.3 design memos — implementation status table

8 design memos in `docs/design/v0.3-*.md` (plus 1 in
`docs/design/v1.0-agent-backend.md`):

| Memo | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `v0.3-knowledge-cascade.md` | ✅ | Phase A-E completed; hotfix 2 (PRs #349/#350); 12 invariants locked |

## 6. v0.3 handover tracks — open / closed

`docs/handovers/v0.3*` files:

| Track | Status |
|---|---|
| `v0.3.0-platform-track.md` | active — Plugin API + CR-E live here |
| `v0.3-cognitive-layer-track.md` | mostly closed — Phase 2 components (verify / planner / reflect) shipped |
| `v0.3-operational-ux-track.md` | active — admin-split + UI-IA work continues |
| `v0.3.x-ali-collaboration-track.md` | active — Track 1/2/3 in progress (see §7) |
| `v0.3.x-bilingual-promo-track.md` | active — promo + i18n debt resolved 2026-05-22 |
| `v0.3.x-gemma4-feedback-track.md` | active — V3'.a/.b/.c/.d closed 2026-05-22; Robin 26b sweep pending |

| **this file** (`v0.3.x-audit-2026-05-23.md`) | ✅ closed 2026-05-24 marathon session — Stages A/B/C/D all merged; only Stage E.1 (operator live verification) + external-author trigger outstanding |

---

## 7. PLATFORM_READINESS Gate v0.3 — 6 dimensions

Per `docs/PLATFORM_READINESS.md §3 Gate v0.3`:

| Dim. | Criterion | Status | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | `core/` files < 20 KB, `pydeps` acyclic | ❌ | 5 files over 20 KB (§3 above) |
| B | Plugin API: 4 Protocols + loader + `packs/general/` + SemVer + eval contract | ❌ | 12.5% — only Protocols landed |
| C | RAGAS + STEP-N locked + pack-level enforcement | ⚠️ | STEP-N ✅, RAGAS ✅; pack-level enforcement ❌ (PR-C9) |
| D | `JAMES_WORKSPACE=` multi-instance hosting | ❌ | env var not implemented (PR-C6) |
| E | PolicyEngine + capability tokens | ✅ | External red-team is v0.4 gate |
| F | Single-user reproducible deployment | ✅ | Second-user gate cleared Axis 6; external 6-month is v0.5 |

→ **A + B + C + D 4 dimensions blocked**. Same root cause as §1 — Plugin API is the dominant blocker; module size + JSONL audit are
parallel cleanup items.

> **Post-audit (2026-05-24):** all six dimensions clear after the
> Stage B/C/D marathon session:
>
> | Dim. | Final status | Evidence |
> |---|---|---|
> | A | ✅ | Stage C 5/5 cleared (#427/#428/#429/#431/#432); all `core/` files now ≤17 KB |
> | B | ✅ | 8/8 Plugin PRs landed (§1 post-audit table) |
> | C | ✅ | PR-C9 #419 wired `.github/workflows/packs-eval.yml`; pack-level lightweight gate enforced |
> | D | ✅ | PR-C6 #410 (resolver) + PR-C6.b #421 (config.py consumption) shipped |
> | E | ✅ | PolicyEngine in v0.2.x; external red-team is a v0.4 gate |
> | F | ✅ | Second-user gate cleared Axis 6; external 6-month is v0.5 |
>
> **6/6 dimensions satisfied.** PLATFORM_READINESS Gate v0.3 cleared.
> v0.4 Layer 4 design review (T1+T7+T2 per PR #401/#403) can begin.

## 8. CLAUDE.md critical rules — actual compliance

| Rule | Status |
|---|---|
| #1 No domain features until v1.0 | ✅ — no domain pack exists; no domain-specific code path |
| #2 PRs touching `core/{retrieval,graph,reasoning}` paste bench numbers | ⚠️ — PR #399 (reasoning cap defaults) and PR #407 (4-stage validation) both **included bench results**; older PRs (PR #287, etc.) need a backfill spot-check |
| #3 Self-evolution opt-in only | ✅ — `JAMES_ENABLE_EVOLUTION=0` default + `JAMES_AUTO_APPROVE` refuses to start without `JAMES_DEV_MODE` (server_llmwiki.py:3775, 3795) |
| #4 Architecture changes require an `architecture` label | ⚠️ — PR #401 (architecture memo) was merged without the explicit label; future PRs should be tagged |
| #5 Module size < 20 KB | ❌ — 5 violations (§3) → ✅ all cleared by Stage C 5-PR sequence #427/#428/#429/#431/#432 (2026-05-24) |

---

## 9. Staged re-entry plan

Total estimate to clear the v0.3 → v0.4 gate honestly:
**5–8 days of focused work** + an operator-side live-verification
pass that has been outstanding since 2026-05-22.

### Stage A — Plugin contract minimum viable (3–5 days) — ✅ **closed 2026-05-24**

| Step | Scope | Estimate | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| A.1 | PR-C3: `core/plugins/loader.py` + `core/plugins/manifest.py` + `core/plugins/registry.py` | 4–6 h | ✅ #409 |
| A.2 | PR-C6: `JAMES_WORKSPACE=` env var (config + path resolution + tests) | 2–3 h | ✅ #410 (resolver) + #421 (PR-C6.b config.py consumption) |
| A.3 | PR-C5: `packs/general/` extract — minimum viable stub that proves the dogfood gate, byte-identical STEP 7 | 1–2 days | ✅ #413 (skeleton) + #418 (startup wiring) |
| A.4 | PR-C7: `docs/PLUGIN_AUTHORING.md` — author quickstart + 4-type examples + manifest authoring | 2–3 h | ✅ #412 |
| A.5 | PR-C8: `docs/VERSIONING.md` — SemVer + 12-month deprecation policy | 1–2 h | ✅ #411 |
| A.6 | PR-C9: CI eval contract for `packs/*/` | 3–4 h | ✅ #419 — lightweight gate (manifest + slot-import + ruff); heavyweight RAGAS reserved as same-workflow follow-up step |
| A.7 | PR-C10: `scripts/dogfood_check.py` + CI hook | 2–3 h | ✅ #420 — 4 runtime invariants enforced via `packs-eval.yml` |

### Stage B — CR-E (1–2 days)

| Step | Scope |
|---|---|
| B.1 | Route `/admin/patch/approve` through `core/change_request.py` as a shadow row |
| B.2 | Route `/admin/proposals/{id}/approve|reject` similarly |
| B.3 | Migrate the 4 locked JSONL-shape test files behind a compatibility shim |
| B.4 | Update audit-query endpoint to read both legacy JSONL and CR table |

### Stage C — Module size gate (1–2 days)

| Step | File | Approach |
|---|---|---|
| C.1 | `core/wiki_generator.py` (51 KB) | Split along (a) ingestion, (b) entity merge / cross-doc aggregation, (c) frontmatter / source schema. Target ≤ 18 KB each |
| C.2 | `core/cascade.py` (24 KB) | Split Phase C (delete) / Phase D (modify) / orphan sweep into siblings |
| C.3 | `core/character_profile.py` (24 KB) | Split traits registry + correlation logic |
| C.4 | `core/security_layer.py` (23 KB) | Defer until Audit Phase 4b-2 removes JSONL writers — they share files |
| C.5 | `core/graph_editor.py` (20 KB) | Boundary case; defer if other splits land |

### Stage D — Cleanup (parallel)

| Step | Scope | Status |
|---|---|---|
| D.1 | Audit Phase 4b-2 — remove 16 JSONL writer sites (`core/security_layer.py` + 5 tool writers + 9 module-local copies). Re-validate the SQLite mirror. | ❌ pending |
| D.2 | `THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.md` — dependency inventory | ✅ shipped (`THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.md` exists, last refresh PR #414 2026-05-23) — re-run only on dependency churn |
| D.3 | Quarterly trigger monitoring — first measurement in `docs/LICENSE_PLAN.md §8` | ✅ recorded — PR #415 (third quarterly measurement, 2026-05-23) |

### Stage E — Operator parallel work

| Step | Scope | Status |
|---|---|---|
| E.1 | Live re-verification (i18n 7 PRs + cap defaults + graph evolution) — 30–50 min | ❌ pending operator |
| E.2 | Local `main` divergence cleanup | ✅ done 2026-05-24 (post-Plugin-merge session — local main reset to `origin/main` `8347a55`) |
| E.3 | Push the V3'.c/.d result JSONs (`reports/research-runs/`) committed locally on workstation | ✅ resolved 2026-05-24 — operator chose to discard the 5 local-only JSONs; `v3prime-query-rewriter-20260522T021221.json` already on origin via PR #407 |

### Stage F — admin.html split (optional)

| Step | Scope | Decision |
|---|---|---|
| F.1 | Option-A Phase 3: split admin.html into 3 pages | Operator decides whether to land in v0.3 or v0.3.x or v0.4 parallel |

---

## 10. Why this gap formed

Three observations, recorded so the same pattern can be avoided next
cycle:

1. **Entry path narrowness.** The 2026-05-22 session entered from a
   live-verification checklist (`v0.3.x-session-2026-05-21-review-
   checklist.md §13`) that did not list Plugin API as a track. The
   checklist was an accurate live-verification entry but an
   incomplete cycle entry; future cycles should cross-reference
   `ROADMAP.md` against the checklist before starting.
2. **Discovery work crowded out planned work.** The §3 cognitive
   lang-toggle Phase 1 finding (single PR → systemic i18n debt) was
   real and necessary, but absorbed the cycle. The 7-PR sweep was
   the right call; what should also have happened is a deliberate
   re-plan at the point of discovery.
3. **No mid-cycle status check against `ROADMAP.md`.** A 10-minute
   read of v0.3 deliverables mid-cycle would have surfaced the
   Plugin API gap before the session closed. Adding this as a
   recurring step (e.g., at the start of every session that follows
   discovery work) is the lightest-weight prevention.

## 11. 2026-05-24 entry guide

Pick one and start there. Stages A–F are mostly independent; A is
the highest priority.

**Default recommended order**:

1. Stage E (operator parallel) — 30–60 min, unblocks remaining audit
2. Stage A.1 + A.2 (PR-C3 + PR-C6) — half a day, lands the loader
3. Stage A.4 + A.5 (docs) — half a day, lands the author guide and
   versioning policy
4. Stage A.3 (packs/general/) — 1–2 days, dogfood gate live
5. Stage A.6 + A.7 (CI eval contract + dogfood_check) — half a day
6. Stage B (CR-E) — 1–2 days
7. Stage C (module splits) — 1–2 days
8. Stage D (cleanup) — parallel

Total: 5–8 days of focused work to clear the v0.3 → v0.4 gate. v0.4
Layer 4 design review (T1 + T7 + T2) can begin in parallel with
stages C and D once Stage A.3 lands.

v0.3 의 핵심 deliverable 인 Plugin contract 가 12.5% (PR-C2 만)
완료된 상태에서 본 cycle 이 v0.4 진입 directions 으로 흘러갔음을
2026-05-23 audit 으로 확인. CR-E + module size 5 violations +
Audit Phase 4b-2 도 함께 pending. 단계별 re-entry plan (Stage A~F)
은 5-8 일 소요 예상. v0.4 Layer 4 design 은 Stage A.3 (`packs/general/`
dogfood) 이후 병행 가능.
