docs: api-artifacts contract revision 2 (luna review F1-F5)
ci/woodpecker/pr/ci Pipeline was canceled

F1: declared route-metadata layer as complete generator input; generator
fails closed on any route lacking extractable metadata; migration of
local-DTO/inline-typed/raw-handler routes named as implementing-PR scope.
F2: coverage closed over raw framework mounts, delegated surfaces,
tier-conditional controllers, SSE, and both-direction Socket.IO events;
explicit exclusion and delegation lists.
F3: ENDPOINTS.md structured entry format with operationId links; the
no-duplication rule reattributed as new disclosed policy with a
mechanical boundary witness.
F4: witnesses added for OpenAPI 3.1 validity, family coverage in
ENDPOINTS.md, per-entry required content, fail-closed generator control,
and a defined retirement equivalence algorithm.
F5: section 8 disclosure completed (10 items); Authority paragraph
restated in the sitemap's own terms.

@@ -7,12 +7,30 @@ HTTP/WebSocket contract and `docs/API/ENDPOINTS.md` as the
human-readable endpoint, authentication, permission, and error index —
both declared, neither present (the webui-audit REPORT's prerequisite
9). `docs/SITEMAP.md` records that canonical scope requires maintainer
approval; this contract's ratification is that approval path. Contract
5 (`tool-gateway-mapping.md`) §4 binds the per-operation
approval; ratification of this contract by the repository maintainer
supplies that approval for these two artifacts. Contract 5
(`tool-gateway-mapping.md`) §4 binds the per-operation
request/result/error/audit envelope; this contract binds only how the
two artifacts are produced, what they must cover, and how they are
kept true.
Revision 2 (luna review F1F5): the generation model now defines its
complete input — a declared route-metadata layer every production
route must carry, with the generator failing closed on any route
lacking extractable metadata, and the migration of today's local-DTO,
inline-typed, and raw-handler routes named as implementing-PR scope
(F1). The §7.2 inventory is closed over the real surface: raw
framework mounts, delegated surfaces, conditional/tier-gated
controllers, SSE, and Socket.IO events in both directions, with an
explicit delegation/exclusion list (F2). The `ENDPOINTS.md`
no-duplication rule is reattributed as a new disclosed policy with a
structured entry format and a mechanical checker (F3). Witnesses are
added or made executable for 3.1 validity, family coverage in
`ENDPOINTS.md`, per-entry required content, and the retirement
equivalence algorithm (F4). §8 discloses every untraced binding rule,
and the SITEMAP approval claim is restated in the sitemap's own terms
(F5).
This contract binds the artifact definitions (§2), the production
model (§3), coverage obligations (§4), legacy migration (§5), phase
timing (§6), witnesses (§7), and disclosed drafting additions (§8).

## 2. Artifact contract
1. **`OPENAPI.yaml`** is one file, valid OpenAPI 3.1, and the canonical
machine-readable contract for the Gateway's HTTP surface. Socket.IO
events, which OpenAPI cannot express natively, are documented in
`ENDPOINTS.md` and referenced from the OpenAPI description block;
inventing a pseudo-path encoding for them inside `OPENAPI.yaml` is
non-conformant.
2. **`ENDPOINTS.md`** is the human index: per endpoint family, the
behavior, authentication requirement, permission/authorization rule
(naming the owning contract — contract 2 for chain authorization,
the SOT for workspace membership), and error semantics including
the contract 5 §4.2 taxonomy. It links to owning contracts and to
`OPENAPI.yaml`; it does not duplicate endpoint definitions (the
`docs/API/README.md` authoring boundary).
1. **`OPENAPI.yaml`** is one file, valid OpenAPI 3.1 (witness §7.6),
and the canonical machine-readable contract for the Gateway's HTTP
surface. Socket.IO events, which OpenAPI cannot express natively,
are documented in `ENDPOINTS.md` and referenced from the OpenAPI
description block; inventing a pseudo-path encoding for them inside
`OPENAPI.yaml` is non-conformant.
2. **`ENDPOINTS.md`** is the human index, in a structured entry
format: one entry per endpoint family, carrying (a) the family's
behavior summary, (b) its operations referenced by `operationId`
link into `OPENAPI.yaml` — never by restated definition, (c) the
authentication requirement, (d) the permission/authorization rule
naming the owning contract (contract 2 for chain authorization, the
SOT for workspace membership), (e) error semantics including the
contract 5 §4.2 taxonomy, and (f) Socket.IO event entries (both
directions) for event families. `ENDPOINTS.md` MUST NOT contain
request/response schema definitions for any operation that exists
in `OPENAPI.yaml` (mechanical rule: no `requestBody`/`responses`/
schema-fragment blocks for such operations — witness §7.5). This
no-duplication rule and the entry format are new policy disclosed
in §8 (the `docs/API/README.md` boundary as written binds guide
books, not `ENDPOINTS.md` itself).
3. Both artifacts are committed repository files, reviewed in PRs like
any contract text; neither is a build output that exists only in CI.
## 3. Production model
1. **Generation (per the ruling).** `OPENAPI.yaml` is GENERATED from
the Gateway source (route decorators plus the shared request/result
DTOs of contract 5 §4.1) by a deterministic repository script; the
generated output is committed, and CI regenerates and byte-compares
it (§7.1). Hand edits to `OPENAPI.yaml` are non-conformant — a
description that cannot be expressed from source annotations goes
into the annotations, or into `ENDPOINTS.md`.
the Gateway source by a deterministic repository script whose input
is a **declared route-metadata layer**: every production HTTP/SSE
route carries machine-extractable metadata — route decorators plus
typed request/response schemas (the contract 5 §4.1 shared DTOs
where the operation is a mapped tool family; declared per-route
schemas elsewhere) and its error-code set. **The generator fails
closed:** a production route lacking complete extractable metadata
is a generation error, never a silently omitted or partially
emitted operation. Today's local-DTO, inline-typed, and
raw-handler routes therefore migrate to declared metadata in the
implementing PR — that migration is in the implementing PR's
scope, and §7.2's independent inventory is the cross-check that no
route escaped it. The generated output is committed, and CI
regenerates and byte-compares it (§7.1). Hand edits to
`OPENAPI.yaml` are non-conformant — a description that cannot be
expressed from source annotations goes into the annotations, or
into `ENDPOINTS.md`.

ratify it. The S2 contracts and their witnesses remain the

1. **Closure over the real surface.** Coverage extends to every
production route however registered: framework-decorated
controllers and gateways AND raw framework mounts registered
outside them (the bootstrap's own route/hook registrations), SSE
routes, and conditionally registered (deployment-tier-gated)
controllers — documented in the union, each conditional route
marked with its condition. **Delegated surfaces** (§1.4) are
documented as delegated-surface entries naming the mount, the
delegating engine, and that engine's own contract — not
re-documented route-by-route. **Socket.IO events are covered in
both directions:** subscribed (inbound handler) events and
server-emitted events. Test-only and development-only surfaces are

2. **Coverage witness:** an independent route inventory (static
enumeration of Gateway controllers and gateways over `apps/`,
production code, tests excluded — the A5 §1.2 inventory style)
equals the documented path set in both directions: no undocumented
live route, no documented phantom. Socket.IO events are inventoried
the same way against `ENDPOINTS.md`.
3. **Taxonomy witness:** every error response documented in
`OPENAPI.yaml` uses a code from the contract 5 §4.2 closed enums,

shared types package; where the no-oracle rule applies, the
documented refusal and not-found responses are identical in code,
status, and shape.

fail-closed rule (§3.1): a fixture route stripped of its metadata
makes generation fail, not emit a partial document.
2. **Coverage witness:** an independent surface inventory — static
enumeration over `apps/` production code, tests excluded (the A5
§1.2 inventory style), covering framework-decorated controllers
and gateways, raw mount/hook registrations in the bootstrap
path, SSE routes, conditional registrations (evaluated per
deployment profile and unioned), and delegated-surface mounts —
equals the documented set in both directions: no undocumented live
route, no documented phantom, each conditional route carrying its
condition, each delegated surface present as a delegated-surface
entry. Socket.IO events are inventoried in both directions —
inbound subscription handlers by handler scan, server-emitted
events by emit-call scan over production code — and compared to
`ENDPOINTS.md`'s event entries in both directions. Additionally,
every HTTP route family in `OPENAPI.yaml` has an `ENDPOINTS.md`
entry, and every `ENDPOINTS.md` operation reference resolves to an
existing `operationId` — both directions, mechanical.
3. **Content and taxonomy witness:** every `ENDPOINTS.md` entry
carries the §2.2 required fields — behavior, operation links,
authentication requirement, owning-contract link, error semantics
— presence-checked mechanically against the structured entry
format; every error response documented in `OPENAPI.yaml` uses a
code from the contract 5 §4.2 closed enums, and each family's
documented codes exactly match the enum in the shared types
package; where the no-oracle rule applies, the documented refusal
and not-found responses are identical in code, status, and shape.
4. **Retirement witness:** before `docs/openapi-tess.yaml` is deleted,
an automated comparison proves each of its 17 paths is covered by
`OPENAPI.yaml` with equivalent schemas, auth, permissions, and
error behavior, and a repository-wide reference scan shows no
`OPENAPI.yaml` under a defined equivalence algorithm: both
documents canonicalized (references dereferenced, keys sorted),
then per path — structural schema equality, security/authentication
requirement equality, and documented error-code set equality —
with permissions compared against the covering `ENDPOINTS.md`
entries, and the comparison emitting the exact per-path
differences on failure. A repository-wide reference scan shows no
remaining consumer (including generated clients) resolves the
legacy file.
5. **Boundary witness:** `ENDPOINTS.md` contains no endpoint
definition duplicated from `OPENAPI.yaml` (machine-checkable:
no path+verb table row whose content restates the generated
operation instead of linking it), per the `docs/API/README.md`
authoring boundary.
5. **Boundary witness:** `ENDPOINTS.md` contains no schema definition
for any operation that exists in `OPENAPI.yaml` — mechanically: no
`requestBody`/`responses`/schema-fragment block attached to a
linked operation, and every operation mention is an `operationId`
link (§2.2's structured format makes this checkable); the witness
proves it can fail by a control run against a mutated copy
containing an inline schema block.
6. **Validity witness:** `OPENAPI.yaml` parses and validates as
OpenAPI 3.1 under a named validator run in CI; the witness proves
it can fail by a control run against an invalidated copy.

from Gateway source with a committed output and a CI drift gate
(recommended — the 45-controller surface already exists, so
generation is the only route that starts true and stays true) — or
hand-authored contract-first, with code conformance to the
hand-written contract enforced by witnesses instead?

incompleteness a build error) — or hand-authored contract-first, with
code conformance to the hand-written contract enforced by witnesses
instead?
