jpmschweitzerandClaude Opus 4.8 f936e503da docs(decisions): restructure into pql governance DQR tree
Phase 1 of the pql migration. Moves the flat decisions/*.md layout into
governance/{decisions,questions,rejected}/<domain>.md — the tree pql's
`decisions sync` parses natively (record type from subdir, domain from
filename stem). Proven against pql 1.6.2: sync reports 357 records
(237 D / 108 Q / 12 R), 1057 refs, broken: 0; validate ok.

- 6 D-domain files -> governance/decisions/ (git renames)
- 5 questions-<domain>.md -> governance/questions/<domain>.md (prefix dropped)
- rejected.md split by domain -> governance/rejected/{architecture(R-001..010),
  economics(R-011),perception(R-012)}.md
- decisions/README.md + questions.md index folded into governance/README.md;
  pql's `decisions sync` now auto-maintains the record index appended below
  the hand-written domain guidance (no more manual ID-list table upkeep).
- .pql/config.yaml: canonical vault config (tracked, not ignored).

Link rewrites are token-preserving: only the relative `foo.md` path portion
changes (e.g. `rejected.md#r-011` -> `../rejected/economics.md#r-011`); every
`[D-NNN]` bracket text and `#anchor` stays byte-identical, so pql's reference
extraction is unaffected. The one-shot transform is committed at
tooling/pql-migrate/restructure_decisions.py for provenance.

Codebase path references to decisions/ (CLAUDE.md, rules, skills, docs) are
updated in a follow-up commit.

Rejected Alternatives — Economics

Rejected proposals in the economics domain, rationale preserved for the audit trail.

R-011: Single currency for Phase 2 economics

  • Rejected: 2026-04-05
  • Proposed by: Burnelli-Sheldon (economist), Sprint 32 Workshop #796 Round 1
  • Proposal: Use a single currency for the Phase 2 economics simulation to reduce model complexity; exchange-rate mechanics could be added in a later phase.
  • Reason: Three currencies create structural economic bloc tension as an emergent property of initialization, requiring no event generation. The Tractus/Mark divide maps directly to the canonical Assembly vs. Compact political divide. Deferring to a later phase would require retrofitting political geography into a running simulation. Complexity cost low; design value high.
  • Raised by: Lead directive overruling the recommendation.
  • Cross-reference: D-171 (economics.md)
  • Note: Canonical location is rejected.md. Two duplicate copies in economics.md were removed 2026-06-06 (id-collision cleanup).
