# Completion Audit

Date: 2026-06-08

This file records how the investigation satisfied the user's read-only audit
request. It is not a code validation report because the task explicitly
forbade source modifications.

## Requirements From The Request

### Deeply audit architecture and code smells

Evidence:

- `source-map.md` maps the top-level source tree and main lifecycle flows.
- `smells.md` records high-confidence and medium-confidence smells.
- `target-architecture.md` states the overall verdict, boundaries to preserve,
  boundaries to fix, product decisions, and anti-recommendations.
- `refactor-roadmap.md` turns the findings into implementation slices.

Status: satisfied.

### Question whether current code shape is legitimate

Evidence:

- `target-architecture.md` separates boundaries to preserve from boundaries to
  fix.
- `smells.md` explicitly records which odd structures look legitimate, such as
  capture ledger complexity, operation/process/harness split, config split, and
  Codex adapter module split.
- Product decisions are called out separately from mechanical refactors.

Status: satisfied.

### Use subagents for independent critical review

Evidence:

- Four subagent reports exist under `reports/`:
  - `lifecycle-command-boundaries.md`
  - `provider-harness-boundaries.md`
  - `wiki-storage-query-boundaries.md`
  - `prior-art-patterns.md`
- `subagent-briefs.md` summarizes the independent findings and architecture
  implications.

Status: satisfied.

### Use outside research when useful

Evidence:

- `research-notes.md` records local research notes.
- `reports/prior-art-patterns.md` cites and applies prior art including
  Cockburn, Fowler, SQLite, launchd, CLI Guidelines, and local-first software.
- `target-architecture.md` uses the research conclusion that CodeAlmanac should
  borrow dependency direction and use-case boundaries without importing
  enterprise folder vocabulary.

Status: satisfied.

### Write durable notes frequently under `docs/`

Evidence:

- Audit directory: `docs/architecture-audit-2026-06-08/`.
- Running notes and reports were written as the investigation progressed:
  `worklog.md`, `source-map.md`, `smells.md`, `research-notes.md`, four
  subagent reports, `subagent-briefs.md`, `target-architecture.md`,
  `refactor-roadmap.md`, and this file.

Status: satisfied.

### Do not modify source code

Evidence:

- `git status --short` shows the new audit docs folder plus pre-existing
  unrelated `.almanac` changes.
- `git diff --name-only -- src test bin package.json tsup.config.ts MANUAL.md CLAUDE.md AGENTS.md`
  produced no output.
- `git ls-files --others --exclude-standard src test bin package.json tsup.config.ts MANUAL.md CLAUDE.md AGENTS.md`
  produced no output.
- `git diff --check -- docs/architecture-audit-2026-06-08` produced no output.
- Scoped status for docs plus implementation paths shows only
  `?? docs/architecture-audit-2026-06-08/`.

Status: satisfied.
