Applies the document contract from
docs/plans/2026-08-20_stack-docs-flatten-and-alignment.md section 3, partially:
`kind` and `status` only. `parent` is deliberately held until the flatten in
section 4 lands, so that 127 documents do not have to be re-pointed by hand
when docs/fleet/NORTH_STAR.yaml moves to docs/NORTH_STAR.yaml.
Scope, measured on origin/next at 63069149:
127 live docs = all *.md under docs/ minus docs/archive/ minus docs/_old_structure/
104 stamped here
19 held operator judgement (plan section 9), worklist in the same PR
3 held the SUPERSEDED TASKS.md stamps, which cite the moving path
1 untouched docs/fleet/FLEET-DOCTRINE.md, already stamped in W1
Kinds applied: 54 guide, 34 record, 9 spec, 6 tracking, 1 projection.
Every row carries a confidence and a one-line rationale in the worklist.
Two collisions with the existing state, both flagged rather than resolved:
1. docs/README.md:150-160 already documents a front-matter convention
(title/type/audience/status/source_of_truth) with its own allowed values.
It is applied to 4 of 127 files. Its `status` vocabulary is
current|draft|deprecated|historical; the new contract's is active|superseded-by.
The key collides. This commit lets the new contract win and rewrites
`status: current` to `status: active` on those 4 files, keeping their other
legacy keys untouched. No code reads any of them: `git grep source_of_truth`
outside docs/ returns nothing. docs/README.md still prescribes the old
convention and is an operator row, so it is not edited here.
2. Two of the plan's 20 operator rows are YAML files, not markdown
(docs/fleet/examples/roster-v2.yaml, docs/openapi-tess.yaml), and the
contract's front-matter form has no defined meaning for a .yaml document.
That gap also applies to docs/fleet/NORTH_STAR.yaml, the source of truth
itself. Raised in the worklist.
A third row from the plan, docs/fleet/north-star.md, no longer exists: W1
renamed it to docs/fleet/FLEET-DOCTRINE.md.
Verification: 104/104 parse with the expected kind and status in front matter;
the check was shown to reject a wrong kind before it was trusted. The diff
removes 4 lines total, all of them `status: current`.

Documentation Catalog and Truth Audit Plan
Task: DOCS-IA-002
Internal reference: TASKS:DOCS-IA-002
Goal: Catalog the existing Mosaic Stack documentation, identify its intended destination in the new structure, and audit validity/truthfulness against repository evidence before moving or rewriting content.
Scope
- Current root-level documentation and newly established structure files.
- All Markdown and relevant YAML/API artifacts under
docs/_old_structure/. - Repository references from source, tests, scripts, guides, and root README files.
- Static truth checks for paths, commands, package names, environment variables, API artifacts, and explicit document status.
Non-goals
- Do not move, delete, or rewrite documentation.
- Do not decide product requirements that belong in
docs/PRD.md. - Do not mark a claim true solely because it appears in a document.
- Do not modify active
docs/TASKS.mdbecause it has a single-writer orchestrator policy.
Parallel discovery lanes
- File catalog: path, title, type, size, line count, current/archive location, last repository change.
- Navigation audit: Markdown and Obsidian links, target resolution, broken-link clusters, source references.
- Code-surface audit: package names, scripts, entry points, referenced docs, paths used by tests and source.
- Truth triage: compare current claims against executable code/config/tests and label evidence strength.
Parallel lanes produce findings only. The coordinator reconciles them into one report so truth labels remain consistent.
Evidence statuses
verified: directly supported by current source/config/tests or a reproducible command.partially-verified: some claims are supported, but the page contains unverified or time-sensitive claims.contradicted: current repository evidence conflicts with a material claim.stale: formerly meaningful but no longer aligned with current paths, APIs, or state.historical: intentionally retained record of past state; not a current instruction.draft: normative proposal or requirement, not a statement of shipped behavior.unverified: not yet checked or insufficient evidence exists.incomplete: empty or structurally insufficient for its stated role.
Deliverables
docs/reports/documentation/2026-08-10-docs-catalog-audit.md— human-readable catalog, findings, evidence, and migration recommendations.docs/scratchpads/DOCS-IA-002-catalog-audit.md— task progress and command evidence.
A machine-readable intermediate inventory may remain under /tmp; it is not canonical unless explicitly copied into the report.
Acceptance criteria
- Every current documentation file and every archived documentation file is counted and assigned a preliminary disposition.
- Broken internal links and repository references are enumerated with evidence.
- Truth labels distinguish current behavior, normative intent, historical evidence, and unresolved claims.
- High-risk contradictions and source/test dependencies are called out before any migration.
- The report recommends migration order and identifies pages requiring human/product-owner validation.
- No existing documentation or unrelated working-tree state is modified.
