Documentation audit and disposition¶
Audit completed 2026-08-15. The repository contained complete scientific artifacts, but its generated navigation and run index exposed implementation structure instead of scientific meaning.
Changes made¶
| Problem | Resolution |
|---|---|
| Timestamped run IDs were the public names. | Added hub/run_registry.json with durable titles, effort groups, summaries, trust notes, priority, and disposition. |
| Every run appeared equally important. | The hub now defaults to primary/supporting evidence; archive-only runs require an explicit toggle. |
| Current and rejected Device23 diagnostics were mixed. | The corrected dashboard is separated from the pre-fix trajectory; the physical-Q decline remains only as historical failure evidence. |
| Complete derivations existed but were not navigable. | Canonical Quan–Lončar and Device23 lineages are copied unabridged and exposed through reading guides. |
| Engine notes flooded the main navigation. | Notes remain searchable and linked through an engine index, but individual entries are no longer top-level nav items. |
| Home and hub copy contained stale operational claims and obsolete hostnames. | Replaced with a compact current-status page and the canonical public URL. |
| Telemetry schema was mixed into the user-facing hub guide. | Moved the implementation contract to a reference page. |
Disposition vocabulary¶
- primary: the current scientific continuation;
- supporting: evidence required to interpret the primary run;
- historical benchmark: a successful or informative predecessor;
- historical failure: retained counterexample that changed the method;
- exploratory: pipeline capability demonstration, not a target result;
- invalidated: affected by a known correctness defect;
- superseded: replaced before producing a distinct result;
- empty: initialized without usable scientific output.
Nothing was deleted. Raw run directories, detailed experimental chronologies, and full phase notes remain published and searchable; they are simply no longer presented as equal-status entry points.
