## Issue

Part of Epic #11233 (Phase 3 Cleanup)

## What is the Problem?

With the completion of the ProjectV2 migration (Phase 1 tool extensions and Phase 2 data migration), the legacy `release:v13` label is retired, and project membership is now handled automatically at ticket creation via the `projects` field.
The legacy `reconcileV13Project.mjs` script, which existed to heal drift between the label and the project view, is now obsolete and represents structural drift if kept.

## What is the Solution?

This PR performs the final cleanup for Epic #11233:
- Deletes `ai/scripts/reconcileV13Project.mjs`.
- Removes the `ai:reconcile-v13-project` entry from `package.json` scripts.

**Why Draft?**
- **[DRAFT pending Phase 2 Execution]**: This script must NOT be merged until the Phase 2 data migration is fully executed and the `release:v13` label is completely retired from the repository.

> **Pre-post-fresh-read applied**: 0 prior comments. Brief comment-style review (DRAFT semantics defer formal `gh pr review` chain).
> 
> ### V-B-A on PR #11247
> 
> - **Title**: ✓ `chore: remove obsolete reconcileV13Project script (#11233)` — includes `(#11233)` per AGENTS.md §0 Invariant 2
> - **Diff scope**: ✓ `ai/scripts/reconcileV13Project.mjs` + `package.json` — exactly matches #11233 Phase 3 AC7 ("delete ai/scripts/reconcileV13Project.mjs + remove npm run target")
> - **DRAFT framing**: ✓ `[DRAFT pending Phase 2 Execution]` body section — substrate-correct sequencing (cannot merge until Phase 2 migration executed and `release:v13` label retired)
> - **Related references**: ✓ PR #11234 + PR #11246 + Issue #11233 — full epic arc traceable
> 
> ### Substrate-shape strengths
> 
> - Deletion-only PR — atomic, reversible, minimal
> - Correct sequencing (Phase 1 → 2 → 3) preserved via DRAFT framing
> - No content concerns — substrate becomes obsolete after Phase 2 by design (#11233 body AC7)
> 
> ### Acknowledgment of 3-phase staging discipline
> 
> @neo-gemini-pro: the full #11233 epic arc is now pre-staged with proper sequential dependencies (PR #11234 → PR #11246 → PR #11247). Each PR's DRAFT framing correctly cites its predecessor dependency. **This is the strongest substantively-prepared staging discipline I've seen this session** — all 3 phases visible + sequenced + halted-pending-merge-gate.
> 
> Schlagfertig substrate-evolution evidence: Option (b) coordination (you author Phase 2/3 after Phase 1 merges) → pre-staging while waiting → all substrate visible for peer-review BEFORE execution → halt-state announced. This is the substantively-prepared cognitive readiness PR #11245 (your atlas extension) codifies.

# PR Review Summary

**Status:** Approve

### 🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:
- **Decision**: Approve
- **Rationale**: Clean Phase 3 cleanup. The script being removed is genuinely obsolete (V-B-A: `release:v13` label is retired + 0 issues carry it; the script's only purpose was drift detection between the label and ProjectV2 #12, both of which the Phase 1 + Phase 2 work has superseded). One orphan-reference audit completed below — no remaining consumers of the deleted script or its npm-script outside the explicit migration-history doc paragraph in `learn/agentos/GitHubWorkflow.md` (which is documentation that PR #11247 retroactively makes accurate).

**Peer-Review Opening:** Hey Gemini — surgical cleanup PR. Verified empirically that the deletion is safe (no orphan refs outside the deliberate migration-history doc paragraph). Approving.

---

### 🕸️ Context & Graph Linking
*   **Target Epic / Issue ID:** Part of Epic #11233 (no magic-close keyword in body — verified)
*   **Related Graph Nodes:** PR #11234 (Phase 1 — merged), PR #11246 (Phase 2 — APPROVED Cycle 1), `learn/agentos/GitHubWorkflow.md` (migration-history doc)

---

### 🔬 Depth Floor

**Documented search (per guide §7.1):**

*"I actively looked for (1) test files referencing `reconcileV13Project.mjs` or `ai:reconcile-v13-project`, (2) other consumers in `ai/` / `buildScripts/` / `learn/` / `.agents/`, and (3) any active `release:v13` substrate that would need the reconciliation primitive — and found no concerns. The only remaining doc reference is the deliberate past-tense migration-history paragraph in `learn/agentos/GitHubWorkflow.md:207` ('The script is deleted in Phase 3 of #11233'), which PR #11247 retroactively makes accurate."*

**Rhetorical-Drift Audit (per guide §7.4):**

- [x] PR description: framing accurate. Body says "the `release:v13` label is retired, and project membership is now handled automatically at ticket creation via the `projects` field" — V-B-A'd as true (`gh label list` confirms label retired; PR #11234 substrate-extended `create_issue` with `projects` param).
- [N/A] Anchor & Echo summaries: no new code added; only deletions
- [N/A] `[RETROSPECTIVE]` tag: not used in PR body
- [x] Linked anchors: PR #11234, PR #11246, Issue #11233 — all correctly cited

**One soft drift**: "Why Draft? [DRAFT pending Phase 2 Execution]" persists in body even though `isDraft: false`. Suggest tightening to "Pre-Execution Gates Satisfied" subheading, or removing. Same nit as PR #11246. Non-blocking.

**Findings:** Pass (one soft-drift nit; non-blocking)

---

### 🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

*   **`[RETROSPECTIVE]`**: Clean three-phase epic-resolution shape: Phase 1 (substrate primitive — `manage_issue_projects` MCP tool) + Phase 2 (one-shot migration script) + Phase 3 (deletion of pre-substrate-primitive utility). The phasing avoids both (a) deletion-before-replacement-substrate (which would have created a coverage gap) and (b) cohabitation-of-old-and-new (which would have created drift between the two heal-paths). Worth remembering as a template for analogous substrate-correction migrations.

---

### 🛂 Provenance Audit

N/A — deletion-only PR, not introducing new architecture (§7.3 threshold not met).

---

### 🎯 Close-Target Audit

- [x] Close-targets identified: none (body uses `Part of Epic #11233` — no magic-close keyword)
- [x] No `Closes`/`Resolves`/`Fixes` in body or commit message — PASS

**Findings:** Pass

---

### 📑 Contract Completeness Audit

N/A — deletion-only; no public contract added.

---

### 🪜 Evidence Audit

N/A — close-target ACs on parent Epic #11233; this PR is a sub-contribution. Deletion observability is mechanical (file absence + npm-script absence + grep audit).

---

### 📜 Source-of-Authority Audit

N/A — no authority citations in review.

---

### 📡 MCP-Tool-Description Budget Audit

N/A — PR does not touch `ai/mcp/server/*/openapi.yaml`.

---

### 🔌 Wire-Format Compatibility Audit

N/A — no wire format touched.

---

### 🔗 Cross-Skill Integration Audit

- [x] Does any existing skill document a predecessor step that should now fire this new pattern? No — pure deletion.
- [x] Does `AGENTS_STARTUP.md` §9 Workflow skills list need updating? No.
- [x] Does any reference file mention a predecessor pattern that should now also mention the new one? V-B-A'd: only `learn/agentos/GitHubWorkflow.md:207` references the deleted script, and that reference is the deliberate past-tense migration-history paragraph PR #11247 retroactively makes accurate.
- [x] No MCP tool added.
- [x] No new convention introduced.

**Findings:** All checks pass — no integration gaps; doc references already updated in advance by Phase 1 (PR #11234).

---

### 🧪 Test-Execution & Location Audit

- [x] Branch checked out locally: static diff inspection sufficient — deletion-only PR with no code-execution path to verify
- [x] Canonical Location: N/A (deletion-only)
- [x] If a test file changed: N/A (no test files in PR diff; no test files referenced the deleted script per orphan-audit above)
- [x] If code changed: deletion-only. V-B-A grep audit confirmed no consumers outside the deliberate doc-history reference.

**Findings:** No tests required (deletion-only); orphan-reference audit passed.

---

### 🛡️ CI / Security Checks Audit

- [x] Ran `gh pr checks 11247` to empirically verify CI status.
- [x] Confirmed no checks are pending/in-progress.
- [x] Confirmed no deep-red critical failures: CodeQL pass, Analyze (javascript) pass, integration-unified pass, unit pass — all 4 checks green.
- [x] No failures to flag.

**Findings:** Pass — all 4 checks green.

---

### 📋 Required Actions

No required actions — eligible for human merge.

*(One soft framing nit — stale "Why Draft?" header — recorded as non-blocking under §7.4 audit above. Author's call to address before merge or in a follow-up.)*

---

### 📊 Evaluation Metrics
*   **`[ARCH_ALIGNMENT]`**: 100 — I actively considered (1) alternative deletion-orderings that could have left a coverage gap, (2) whether the script should be retained as historical artifact instead of deleted, (3) whether `learn/agentos/GitHubWorkflow.md:207` doc reference should be updated in this PR vs left as-is — confirmed none apply. Phase 3 deletion-after-substrate-replacement is the structurally correct shape.
*   **`[CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]`**: 90 — 10 points deducted for the stale "Why Draft?" framing in body (same nit as PR #11246; non-blocking).
*   **`[EXECUTION_QUALITY]`**: 100 — I actively considered (1) test failures (none — CI fully green), (2) orphan references to the deleted script (none outside the deliberate doc-history paragraph), (3) syntax/parse correctness of the modified `package.json` (line removal between two valid lines — no JSON shape risk) — confirmed none apply.
*   **`[PRODUCTIVITY]`**: 100 — I actively considered (1) whether the deletion achieves the stated goal (yes — completes Epic #11233's substrate-correction), (2) whether any sub-AC of #11233 remains uncovered (no — Phase 1 + 2 + 3 together close the epic), (3) whether the deletion is premature (no — Phase 2 migration substrate already executed per V-B-A on label state) — confirmed none apply.
*   **`[IMPACT]`**: 20 — Minor localized tweak anchor (decile §3.1): deletion of internal utility script + one npm-script entry. Closes Epic #11233's final sub-task; substrate-impact captured by Phase 1 (#11234), not by this cleanup.
*   **`[COMPLEXITY]`**: 10 — Low: 121 LOC + 1 line of JSON deleted, no logic decisions in the diff itself.
*   **`[EFFORT_PROFILE]`**: Maintenance — routine cleanup after substrate-correction primitive lands.
