Docs-only audit of the living docs against the code at origin/main (through #283). Does not touch the .sc/local-key/Windows key lines that #281 will edit.

Key corrections

Left alone

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Updated CLI guidance for defaults, identity resolution, workspace sessions, remotes, TLS, partial clones, compaction, and object limits.
    • Expanded architecture and operational documentation covering protocol versions, locking, refresh safeguards, sparse operations, bucket synchronization, and working-tree protection.
    • Clarified README guidance for proof scripts, testing, Linux requirements, bucket remotes, compaction, and repository serving.
    • Refined security and threat-model guidance for permissions, resource limits, signatures, protocol constraints, and data protection.
    • Updated contribution and ADR documentation with CI workflow coverage and newly indexed decisions.

Audit of the living docs against the code at origin/main (through #283):
ROADMAP Done/Deferred now match the open issues (#281 only), the #278/#280
file/directory collision guard replaces the stale open-hazard text, the
DirBucket OS lock, compact --dry-run cost, ws run lock release and a single
downgrade-hazard list are written down, demo count and ws/refresh/signature
index/index lock/ADR status lines are corrected, and the sc-cli-reference
skill is verified against sc --help.

P2 Badge Exempt transcript drop from the identity-default claim

When SC_IDENTITY or ~/.sc/identity exists and a user runs sc transcript drop <id> without --identity, this new blanket statement implies the identity will be selected automatically. However, run_transcript only loads identity.map(...) for TranscriptOp::Drop, so omission deliberately creates an unsigned, local-only tombstone that peers will not honor. Carve this command out of the rule or change its implementation; otherwise users relying on the reference can unintentionally fail to propagate a transcript drop. CLAUDE.mdL93-L97

P2 Badge Limit dry-run cost parity to read operations

For a compaction that merges or sweeps objects, --dry-run performs the same candidate downloads and decoding, but a real run additionally uploads merged packs, writes log/checkpoint objects, performs the manifest CAS, and issues delete requests. Therefore the total S3 request cost is not the same as a real run; only the download egress and read-side requests are comparable. This wording can mislead operators estimating compaction costs and should be narrowed accordingly. CLAUDE.mdL19-L20

P2 Badge Honor the fork-time author in the harvest documentation

When a session is created with sc ws fork --author Alice and a later sc ws harvest omits its own --author, the CLI calls repo.ws_harvest(..., &resolve_author(None), ...), so the resulting commits use $SC_AUTHOR or the current OS username rather than the author stored in the session manifest. This newly documented promise is therefore false and can silently produce incorrect provenance; either make harvest fall back to session.author or document that its author must be supplied again.

P2 Badge Remove clone as an index-lock recovery procedure

If serve-path ingest times out on index.lock, cloning from that remote does not reindex the remote or recover these objects: LocalTransport::get_pack explicitly adds signature and transcript leaves through their indexes, so the unindexed objects are omitted from the clone before the destination-side reindex runs. A retrying push will also generally skip them because has_object already succeeds. Thus the documented recovery leaves the signature or tombstone stranded; provide an actual source-side reindex path or describe the state as unrecoverable by sc clone. CLAUDE.mdL19-L20

P2 Badge Qualify the tracked-file safety guarantee

When a protected file was previously materialized and a forward operation later removes it without a usable identity, materialize_impl cannot compare its plaintext with the encrypted blob and deliberately deletes any regular file at that path, even if the user edited it; private-branch forward operations also lack this byte comparison. The new unconditional statement that every tracked edit survives therefore overstates the data-loss protection and contradicts the documented known limits in the threat model. Qualify this guarantee to the paths and operations where byte comparison is actually enforced. CLAUDE.mdL19-L20

P1 Badge Exclude private conflict stops from this overwrite guarantee

When a merge into a private branch stops on one conflict while also bringing an in-view file that collides with an untracked or ignored regular file, this guarantee does not hold: private.rs calls only refuse_untracked_out_of_view_paths and then writes every in-view result with worktree::write_file, overwriting the user's file. CLAUDE.md also explicitly notes that private-branch conflict stops are not guarded. Carve this case out of the documented guarantee or add the in-view guard, since relying on this safety statement can cause data loss.

Exclude unborn-branch merges from the public-branch overwrite guarantee.
