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3 held the SUPERSEDED TASKS.md stamps, which cite the moving path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current|draft|deprecated|historical; the new contract's is active|superseded-by.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`.

Upgrade and Installed-Asset Drift
Fleet source assets and installed assets can differ after an update, but FCM-M5-001 does not add a trustworthy source-versus-installed revision detector or refresh command. Do not infer freshness from checkout presence, timestamps, generated environment files, running sessions, or a ready migration preview.
Current safe boundary
- The canonical roster remains authority and must survive package/framework refresh.
- Generated projections are rebuilt from that roster after the installed contract is independently verified.
- Operator
roles.local,.env.local, and private quarantine evidence are not generated assets and must not be overwritten. - Baseline roles, schemas, examples, service presets, launcher helpers, and systemd templates must move as one reviewed release set.
- Remote/connector inventory and
mos-commsare not promoted into permanent architecture by an update. - No update may start an agent persisted stopped, adopt an unmanaged session, or bypass generation/ownership checks.
Explicit hold
FCM-M5-002 owns deterministic asset-drift checks, safe package/update refresh evidence, rolling local canary, independent validation certificate, and release evidence. Until that card lands, this page is an operational hold rather than an executable procedure: use the repository/release review path, preserve backups, and do not claim source/installed parity without exact revision evidence from the future validator.
