DOCS-IA-002 — Documentation Catalog and Truth Audit

  • Task: DOCS-IA-002
  • Internal reference: TASKS:DOCS-IA-002
  • Plan: docs/plans/2026-08-10-docs-catalog-audit.md
  • Objective: Catalog all documentation and audit validity/truthfulness before migration.
  • Mode: Read-only discovery; coordinator reconciles findings.

Parallel Pi audit lanes — 2026-08-10

All lanes used pi --model openai-codex/gpt-5.6-luna:max in detached worktrees with only read and bash tools. No lane edited files, staged changes, committed, or started services.

Lane Assignment Outcome
docs-prd Audit docs/PRD.md, linked workstream documents, requirements claims, and package/source alignment. Completed. PRD remains draft/normative; broken fleet/Kanban links and held/contradicted claims require human disposition before promotion.
docs-api Compare docs/openapi-tess.yaml with gateway controllers, routes, DTOs, auth guards, and tests. Completed. Tess contract is scoped and incomplete for the gateway; API migration requires a full route/schema/auth/error inventory and human scope decision.
docs-control Audit docs/MISSION-MANIFEST.md and docs/TASKS.md without changing orchestrator-owned state. Completed. Active versus historical MVP/workstream status is unresolved; status, archive/rehome, and control-plane repairs remain orchestrator/human-owned.
docs-source Map live consumers of docs/fleet, docs/federation, docs/architecture, docs/tess, and docs/native-kanban-sot. Completed. Legacy roots are absent from current docs/; architecture/fleet have source/test consumers, while Tess/Kanban are primarily control-plane/navigation dependencies. Recommended order starts with authority decisions, then architecture security, fleet consumers, and API/Tess migration.

The four isolated worktrees were clean and removed after report collection.

Progress

  • Confirmed external fleet sessions are standing down; no shared agent session was repurposed.
  • Established parallel read-only discovery lanes.
  • Counted current and archived documentation files.
  • Ran initial link audit.
  • Complete corrected code-surface audit.
  • Complete truth triage probes.
  • Write human-readable catalog/audit report.
  • Verify report formatting and scope.
  • Commit audit artifacts without unrelated working-tree changes.
  • Scaffold audience, architecture, and API indexes without moving legacy content.
  • Add current scaffold entry points to SITEMAP.md without rewriting its legacy sections.
  • Select the P8-003 performance report as the first low-risk migration slice.
  • Archive the contradicted TUI PRD/task pair with unchanged content and an explicit archive index.
  • Create and promote the verified user quickstart from the empty root placeholder.
  • Rewrite and promote the SSO administrator runbook from current auth/web source evidence.

Initial findings

  • Baseline inventory: 283 documentation artifacts — 11 current root files, 269 archived files, two prior plans, and one prior scratchpad; current audit artifacts are listed separately.
  • Archived inventory: 269 files under docs/_old_structure/, moved unchanged by commit cd4409a.
  • Initial link scan: 219 internal relative links/wikilinks, 98 unresolved under the baseline checkout; 83 current legacy links remain after excluding two intentional README blueprint links, and 12 archive links are unresolved.
  • 31 source/test/framework files reference legacy documentation roots such as docs/fleet/, docs/federation/, or docs/architecture/.
  • docs/QUICKSTART.md is empty; docs/SITEMAP.md has 66 broken current links; docs/PRD.md, docs/TASKS.md, and docs/MISSION-MANIFEST.md retain broken pre-archive references.
  • SSO provider environment names and partial-config behavior align with packages/auth, but the documented NEXT_PUBLIC_*_ENABLED web flow is stale against dynamic /api/sso/providers discovery.
  • TUI documents reference missing packages/cli and a missing historical worktree; current TUI code is under packages/mosaic.
  • docs/openapi-tess.yaml parses as OpenAPI 3.1 with 17 paths, but remains a legacy root-level Tess-scoped contract rather than the full API SSOT.
  • .gitignore ignores docs/reports/, conflicting with the new documentation contract; the audit report must be force-added and ignore remediation deferred to a separate change.
  • The scaffold slice adds USER-GUIDE/README.md, ADMIN-GUIDE/README.md, ADMIN-GUIDE/security/README.md, DEVELOPER-GUIDE/README.md, DEVELOPER-GUIDE/architecture/README.md, and API/README.md; legacy pages remain unchanged.
  • SITEMAP.md now has a labeled current-structure section; its legacy sections remain unchanged and explicitly transitional.
  • docs/PERFORMANCE.md had no live source/test dependency or internal links; it moved unchanged to docs/reports/qa/p8-003-performance-optimization.md. The admin index and current sitemap now classify it as historical evidence, not an operator runbook.
  • PRD-TUI_Improvements.md and TASKS-TUI_Improvements.md had no live source/test dependencies beyond their internal relative link; both moved unchanged to docs/archive/tui/, and docs/archive/README.md labels them historical.
  • The empty docs/QUICKSTART.md placeholder was replaced by docs/USER-GUIDE/getting-started/quickstart.md, based on verified installer, wizard, CLI, and runtime-safety behavior. The page explicitly excludes held PostgreSQL/source-checkout routes.
  • The SSO guide now documents Authentik/WorkOS/Keycloak discovery, OIDC callbacks, Keycloak SAML fallback, partial-config failures, and the absence of frontend feature flags. The root guide and stale .env.example flags were removed.

Method

  • Resolve relative Markdown links from the source page directory.
  • Resolve wikilinks from the docs/ vault root.
  • Compare document claims to current source, package manifests, tests, configuration, and executable paths.
  • Treat normative PRDs and plans as intent, not shipped behavior.
  • Treat archived material as historical unless current source/tests demonstrate it remains operative.

Risks and blockers

  • docs/SITEMAP.md, docs/PRD.md, task manifests, and source/tests still contain legacy paths.
  • Historical documents may contain commands or security claims that are unsafe if resurfaced as current guidance.
  • Truth audit is static unless a claim can be verified without starting held services or violating database/runtime safety rules.
  • docs/TASKS.md is single-writer orchestrator state and will not be edited by this task.
  • The pre-existing 9a1cc63 commit removed docs/GETTING_STARTED.md and added the .obsidian ignore rule before this audit commit; that state is not attributed to this task.

Verification log

Check Result
File inventory PASS — 11 root files, 269 archived files, plus task artifacts
Initial link audit FINDING — 219 links, 98 unresolved
Code-surface audit PASS — corrected manifest/script and legacy-reference scans; first attempt was discarded due to a require() path bug
Truth probes PASS — root docs, SSO, performance, TUI, OpenAPI, and source-path evidence triaged
Final report Written — docs/reports/documentation/2026-08-10-docs-catalog-audit.md
Scoped commit PASS — audit plan, report, and scratchpad committed together; .mosaic/orchestrator/* remains outside the commit
Report formatting and scope PASS — pnpm exec prettier --ignore-path /dev/null --check passed; ignored report path identified and force-add is required
Commit hook behavior FINDING — lint-staged emitted an ignored docs/reports path error during commit even though the report was force-staged; remediation remains open
Index scaffold PASS — six indexes formatted, all new Markdown/wikilinks resolve, and target directories exist; legacy pages were not changed
Sitemap scaffold PASS — additive current section is formatted, all seven links resolve, and legacy sections are unchanged
First migration selection PASS — P8-003 report selected as a no-rewrite evidence migration; live references identified before move
P8-003 migration PASS — destination is byte-identical, live references were updated, formatting and navigation checks pass, and only the scoped migration files are pending commit
TUI archive migration PASS — both pages are byte-identical, internal links and archive navigation resolve, formatting passes, and only the scoped archive files are pending commit
Quickstart migration PASS — current page content is source-checked, held routes are labeled, navigation resolves, root placeholder is removed, and formatting passes
SSO migration PASS — auth/gateway/web SSO tests pass (15+2+2), source claims and navigation resolve, obsolete env flags are removed, and the root guide is retired
Parallel Pi audits PASS — four requested openai-codex/gpt-5.6-luna:max read-only lanes completed in clean isolated worktrees; no agent changes were imported
