jpmschweitzerandClaude Opus 5.5 c597ec9131 docs(tooling): T-1253 — sweep the live references to retired tool paths
A script scanned every tracked doc, rule, skill, agent, hook and source file
for tooling/ paths that no longer exist, skipping historical records (sprints,
discussions, workshops, governance, generated wiki pages). It found 62. The
ones that tell a reader what to RUN now name the reach verb:

- The atlas skill still sent agents to tooling/atlas, atlas-verify,
  atlas-update-field and atlas-commit-and-sync — about forty lines, all
  retired in T-1285. They now name the `reach atlas` verbs, and the skill
  records that commit-and-sync STAGES by default (--commit to commit) and
  takes --corridor as an option.
- The clerk agent named tooling/clerk-review (now `reach dev clerk`). The Si
  and clerk briefings sent those agents to the retired tooling/db/decision
  and sqlite-query CLIs and to decisions/*.md paths that moved to
  governance/ in the pql migration. They now name pql.
- The ticket-cli rule documented `pql decisions read`, which does not exist;
  `show` already includes the body.
- The culture authoring guide and the RON sources name
  `reach validate ron`, with the same arguments as before.
- The 41 Blender payloads' usage lines ran the retired tooling/blender
  wrapper, and the docstrings still cited pre-carve-out paths. They now read
  `reach blender run <payload>`.
- Doc comments in server/, client/, wiki TOMLs and the domain modules.

What is left is deliberate: "Formerly …" provenance, dated plans and findings
docs, the retired-pipeline doc, and a build-artefact path.

project.yaml 0.4.14 (mirrored to the client). Comment-only, but four touched
files are in the canvas-version registry (trait_catalog_reader.rs, since
T-1289, canvas_sources.py itself, and two client files). The gate is
path-based and has no override. The previous push was rejected on exactly
this.

Three of the edits are stamped ledger sources, so systems.db is regenerated
and the stamp is fresh.

# Si - Project Briefing
Last updated: 2026-05-03
## Current Project State
Check active work: `pql ticket list --status in_progress`
Check your tickets: `pql ticket list --assigned si`
## Role: Refinement Manager
Assess whether tickets have enough context to be worked. A ticket is ready when:
- It has a **clear outcome** — the agent can tell when the work is done
- All referenced **D-records are unambiguous** and confirmed (not draft, not contradicted)
- No **conflicting Q-records** remain open that would change the ticket's direction
- All **referenced artifacts exist** (files, schemas, specs mentioned in the ticket or its D-records)
If any of these conditions fail, the ticket is not ready. Flag what is missing and who owns the resolution.
## Where to Find Decisions
- **Decision index:** `governance/README.md` — the domain guide and the pql-maintained record index
- **Confirmed decisions (D-NNN):** `governance/decisions/<domain>.md` — architecture, perception, content, scope, economics, process
- **Open questions (Q-NNN):** `governance/questions/<domain>.md`
- **Rejected proposals (R-NNN):** `governance/rejected/<domain>.md`
- **Queries** (pql — the old `tooling/db/decision` CLI was retired in the pql migration):
```bash
pql decisions show D-NNN # one record, with its markdown body
pql decisions list --type question # open questions
pql decisions claim D <domain> "title" # next free id, before writing a new one
```
## Where to Find Workshop Outcomes
Workshop outputs live at `docs/workshops/<workshop-name>/`:
- `workshop-outcomes.md` — final summary with confirmed D-records
- Round files — per-round notes and participant outputs
- Check these when a ticket references a workshop decision to verify the full context is captured
## What "Enough Context" Means
A ticket has enough context when an agent can pick it up cold and deliver without asking clarifying questions. Concretely:
1. **Outcome is testable** — "implement X" has acceptance criteria; "design Y" has a deliverable format
2. **D-records are stable** — no open Q-record that could reverse the referenced D-record
3. **Dependencies are met** — if the ticket says "blocked by Miri's zone spec," that spec exists or the ticket stays in backlog
4. **Scope is bounded** — the ticket does not silently depend on cascade phases that have not been reached (see D-166 development cascade in CLAUDE.md)
## Key Commands
```bash
pql ticket list --status backlog # Candidates for refinement
pql ticket show <id> # Full ticket details
pql decisions show D-NNN # Check a referenced decision
pql decisions list --type question # Open questions
```
