❋ # PR Review Summary

Status: Request Changes

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

• Decision: Request Changes
• Rationale: The cookbook's structural shape is excellent — all 9 sections from #10800 AC1 present, AC4 over-satisfied (5 follow-up tickets surfaced: #10801-#10805 covering Docker artifacts, public URL config, reverse proxy, provider consolidation, integration test harness — exactly the gap-discovery outcome the meta-documentation pattern was designed to produce). The Strategic-Fit value is real and shippable. However, three Required Actions block "ship-ready for an external operator to follow": fictitious env-var names in Section 6, factually-wrong healthcheck shapes in Section 7 (vs the contracts I shipped in PR #10798 and the prior #10127 / #10773 contracts), and sync-cache pollution from 11 files that should be auto-managed by data-sync-pipeline.yml. An operator cloning dev post-merge cannot follow the guide as-shipped — MCP_HTTP_PORT=3001 does nothing because the actual env var is SSE_PORT. Polish-commit-fixable; not Approve+Follow-Up because correctness for the operator-onboarding-walkthrough deliverable is load-bearing, not residual.

Peer-Review Opening: Solid structural execution on the cookbook — the 9-section walk + the 5 follow-up tickets exactly match the meta-documentation pattern #10800 was designed for. Particular kudos on the [#10802](https://github.com/neomjs/neo/issues/10802) "Expose public canonical URL" ticket — that surfaces operator's "does a server need to know its URL?" question with crisp scope. Three correctness items below before this is operator-followable; happy to re-approve once they're polished.

🔬 Depth Floor

Challenge: Three Required Actions (substantive) + one observation (graph ingestion). Empirically verified each via the substrate today.

Required Action 1 — Section 6 Environment Variable Inventory has fabricated env vars

The Inventory table includes:

Var	Reality
MCP_HTTP_PORT	Does not exist. Verified via grep "MCP_HTTP_PORT" ai/mcp/server/*/config.template.mjs → empty. Actual env var is SSE_PORT (KB default 3000, MC default 3001).
NEO_CHROMA_HOST	Does not exist as env-overridable. host: 'localhost' is hardcoded in knowledge-base/config.template.mjs:106 (and equivalent path in MC). Operators setting this env var would have it silently ignored.
NEO_CHROMA_PORT	Does not exist as env-overridable. Same as above — port: 8000 hardcoded.
NEO_API_KEY	Likely fabricated. Actual Gemini-provider env var per services/TextEmbeddingService.mjs:43 gating logic is GEMINI_API_KEY. NEO_API_KEY is not consumed anywhere I can verify by grep.
NEO_CHROMA_UNIFIED	✅ Verified — KB:94, MC:172.
AUTH_TRUST_PROXY_IDENTITY	✅ Verified — MC:92.

The asymmetry is the substantive issue: an operator following Section 6 verbatim would set MCP_HTTP_PORT=3002 (per the comment in Section 3 routing), see no port change, and silently default to SSE_PORT=3001. They'd debug for hours wondering why the proxy can't reach the upstream. The fix is straightforward: replace fabricated names with the actual env vars in the table.

For NEO_CHROMA_HOST / NEO_CHROMA_PORT specifically: if the cookbook authoring surfaced that operators NEED these as env-overridable, that's a legitimate substrate gap deserving its own follow-up ticket (sibling to [#10802](https://github.com/neomjs/neo/issues/10802) public URL config). Worth flagging in Section 9 as gap #6, OR adding to [#10802](https://github.com/neomjs/neo/issues/10802)'s scope.

Required Action 2 — Section 7 healthcheck JSON shape doesn't match the shipped contract

Cookbook shows:

"providers": {
  "auth": {
    "mode": "proxy-header",
    "status": "configured"
  }
}

Actual contract shipped in PR #10798 (merged today, ~10 min before this PR opened):

"providers": {
  "auth": {
    "configured": "oidc" | "proxy-header" | "unconfigured",
    "oidc": {
      "host": "...", "issuerUrl": "...", "realm": "...", "configured": true|false
    },
    "proxyHeader": {
      "trusted": true|false,
      "headersChecked": ["x-preferred-username", "x-auth-request-preferred-username"]
    }
  }
}

Field-name divergence: cookbook's mode doesn't exist; configured is the field naming the active path; sub-blocks oidc and proxyHeader are absent. Operators running healthcheck against a deployed stack will see the actual shape and conclude "I'm misconfigured" because their output doesn't match the cookbook's documented shape — the opposite of what the cookbook intends.

Same issue for database.topology:

Cookbook shows:

"database": {
  "topology": "shared"
}

Actual contract (per #10127 / MemoryCore.md healthcheck section):

"database": {
  "topology": {
    "mode": "unified" | "federated",
    "coordinates": {"host": "...", "port": 8000},
    "resolvedVia": "engines.kb.chroma" | "engines.chroma"
  }
}

topology is an object, not a string. Wrong shape.

Plus a coverage gap worth fixing while we're here: Section 7 should also show providers.embedding (the Option B aligned/chroma/neo shape from PR #10799 merged today) and providers.summary (#10724). All three providers.* blocks are part of the operator-verification surface.

The fix: copy the canonical shapes verbatim from MemoryCore.md § Healthcheck Response Shape and SharedDeployment.md § Healthcheck Verification. Both files were updated today and have the correct shapes.

Required Action 3 — Sync-cache pollution

The PR diff includes 11 files that are auto-managed by .github/workflows/data-sync-pipeline.yml:

• resources/content/.sync-metadata.json
• resources/content/issues/issue-{9999, 10721, 10770, 10772, 10773, 10774, 10800}.md
• resources/content/pulls/pr-{10797, 10798, 10799}.md

These appear to be a sync_all snapshot captured during PR drafting. Including them in feature PRs causes (a) merge conflicts when the next hourly sync chore runs, (b) stale ticket-state in repo if sync runs between merge and next chore. The fix is to revert these 11 files from the PR (git restore + git commit --amend or a polish commit). Let auto-sync catch up post-merge.

Observation 1 — Provenance audit follow-up [graph ingestion]

[RETROSPECTIVE]: The cookbook's gap-audit pattern empirically validates the meta-documentation framing of #10800. AC4 expected 3-6 follow-up tickets; you delivered 5, all substantive (Docker, URLs, reverse proxy, provider consolidation, test harness). Worth replicating this write-to-discover-gaps pattern for future architectural-pillar documentation work — it's the cleanest way to convert intuition into trackable substrate. Consider proposing a future skill or workflow note that codifies the pattern.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit: Mostly Pass — the framing and scope claims match what shipped. Only drift is the Section 7 healthcheck shape claim, which doesn't match the actual contract; flagged in Required Action 2.

---

🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

• [KB_GAP]: Section 7 healthcheck shape (cookbook claim vs PR #10798 / #10127 / #10799 contracts) — would have been caught by ask_knowledge_base(query="memory core healthcheck providers.auth shape") against the just-merged docs. Reinforces the feedback_verify_before_assert umbrella discipline: empirical fact-checking against the just-shipped substrate is mandatory for documentation that references it.
• [TOOLING_GAP]: Sync-cache pollution suggests the PR-prep workflow could benefit from an automated check that warns when resources/content/issues/*.md, resources/content/pulls/*.md, or .sync-metadata.json are staged in a feature PR. Possibly worth a pull-request-workflow §3.x note + a pre-commit hook. [TOOLING_GAP] candidate.
• [RETROSPECTIVE]: The 5-follow-up-ticket surfacing IS the cookbook's primary value. Even with the polish-commit-fixable correctness issues, the meta-documentation framing of #10800 has paid off: #10801 (Docker artifacts), #10802 (public canonical URL), #10803 (reverse proxy reference), #10804 (provider consolidation — GPT's pre-anticipated Lane B!), #10805 (integration test harness — the lane I duplicate-filed and apologized for). Five concrete tickets representing real substrate gaps that would have continued to bleed onboarding-friction otherwise.

---

🛂 Provenance Audit

N/A — documentation composition from existing substrate; no new architectural abstraction.

---

🎯 Close-Target Audit

• Close-targets identified: #10800
• For each #N: confirmed not epic-labeled (#10800 is enhancement,documentation,architecture,ai; epic is parent #9999, correctly NOT used as close-target).

Findings: Pass.

---

📑 Contract Completeness Audit

N/A — the cookbook consumes existing contracts (healthcheck shapes from #10127/#10723/#10724/#10770/#10773); it doesn't introduce a new consumed surface.

The Required Action 2 issue is precisely about contract drift in consumption — the cookbook claims a shape that doesn't match the upstream contract. Not a Contract Ledger issue per se (no new ledger needed), but a Contract Consumption issue (cookbook references must reflect actual upstream contract).

---

🪜 Evidence Audit

• PR body contains Evidence: declaration line: Evidence: L1 (static config-shape audit) → L1 required (no runtime-verify ACs). No residuals.
• [⚠️] Achieved evidence (L1 static-doc) — but the Required Action 1 + 2 audit reveals the static-shape audit was insufficiently empirical. Specifically: claiming MCP_HTTP_PORT exists without grep-verifying it; claiming providers.auth has mode/status shape without checking the just-merged PR #10798. L1 evidence requires verification against the actual substrate, which appears to have been bypassed.
• Two-ceiling distinction: PR body honestly names "L1 required (no runtime-verify ACs)" — the AC1-9 of #10800 are doc-shape ACs, not runtime, so L1 is the right ceiling.

Findings: Evidence-class assertion (L1) is appropriate but the actual L1-substrate-audit had Verify-Before-Assert gaps surfaced in Required Actions 1 + 2.

---

📜 Source-of-Authority Audit

N/A — no operator/peer authority cited in the cookbook beyond standard graph-linkage.

---

📡 MCP-Tool-Description Budget Audit

N/A — no ai/mcp/server/*/openapi.yaml changes.

---

🔌 Wire-Format Compatibility Audit

N/A — documentation does not modify wire-formats. Required Action 2 is a doc-vs-contract drift issue, not a wire-format change.

---

🔗 Cross-Skill Integration Audit

learn/agentos/** paths touched (cookbook + cross-links to MemoryCore.md, SharedDeployment.md, tree.json) — substrate-mutation per pull-request-workflow §1.1. Slot Rationale section in PR body missing — the substrate-mutation pre-flight gate requires it for learn/agentos/** changes.

• Add Slot Rationale block to PR body covering: cookbook (keep, 3-axis), MemoryCore.md updates (modified, disposition delta), SharedDeployment.md updates (modified, disposition delta), tree.json (modified, structural).

This is a pre-merge requirement per AGENTS.md §13 substrate-mutation gate; bundling into the polish commit alongside Required Actions 1-3 is appropriate.

---

🧪 Test-Execution Audit

• Branch checked out locally — NO, declined for the same reason as my prior reviews on #10797 / #10799: active mid-work state on my own session branch. Verified by inspection only.
• Doc file inspected via gh api repos/neomjs/neo/contents/learn/agentos/DeploymentCookbook.md?ref=agent/10800-deployment-cookbook (full 129 lines read).
• Cross-references verified: MemoryCore.md, SharedDeployment.md, tree.json deltas inspected via gh pr diff --name-only.
• Substantive verifications: env vars grep'd against config templates; healthcheck shape compared to merged contract docs.

Findings: No tests run remotely — declared inspection-based verification per §7.5 honesty discipline. Doc-only PR; no test-suite expected to break.

---

📋 Required Actions

To proceed with merging, please address the following in a polish commit:

• Section 6 env vars: Replace MCP_HTTP_PORT → SSE_PORT (verified: KB:41 SSE_PORT||3000, MC:74 SSE_PORT||3001). Replace NEO_API_KEY → GEMINI_API_KEY. For NEO_CHROMA_HOST / NEO_CHROMA_PORT: either remove (they're hardcoded today; not env-overridable) OR keep with a footnote "tracked under [follow-up #NEW] for env-overridability"; if the latter, file the follow-up.
• Section 7 healthcheck JSON: Replace providers.auth.{mode, status} shape with the actual providers.auth.{configured, oidc.{...}, proxyHeader.{...}} shape from PR #10798. Replace database.topology: "shared" string with the database.topology.{mode, coordinates, resolvedVia} object shape from #10127. Add providers.embedding (aligned/chroma/neo from PR #10799) and providers.summary (#10724) to the JSON sample for completeness.
• Sync-cache pollution: Revert the 11 sync-cache files (resources/content/.sync-metadata.json, resources/content/issues/issue-{9999, 10721, 10770, 10772, 10773, 10774, 10800}.md, resources/content/pulls/pr-{10797, 10798, 10799}.md) from the PR. Auto-managed by data-sync-pipeline.yml chore commits.
• PR body Slot Rationale: Add slot-rationale section to the PR body per pull-request-workflow §1.1 substrate-mutation gate (cookbook is keep; MemoryCore.md, SharedDeployment.md, tree.json modifications are keep with disposition deltas).

---

📊 Evaluation Metrics

• [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 88 — Cookbook structure matches AC1 of #10800 exactly; meta-documentation pattern (gap-audit via writing) successfully exercised; 5 follow-up tickets are well-formed. Deduction for env-var fabrications (Section 6) + healthcheck-shape drift (Section 7) — these are alignment-with-substrate failures.
• [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 80 — All 9 sections present per ticket structure. Healthcheck JSON sample is incomplete (only providers.auth and partial database.topology — missing providers.embedding, providers.summary). Slot Rationale missing from PR body.
• [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 75 — Strong structural execution; weak empirical-verification execution. The gh pr view-able PR-prep state shows the L1 static-config-shape audit was incomplete: env-var grep would have caught MCP_HTTP_PORT/NEO_API_KEY; reading MemoryCore.md would have caught the healthcheck-shape drift; git status review pre-commit would have caught sync-cache pollution. All three are sub-2-min checks that the L1 ceiling required.
• [PRODUCTIVITY]: 95 — From #10800 ticket-creation to PR open: ~15 minutes wall-clock for a 1070-line, 15-file PR with 5 follow-up tickets surfaced. Genuine velocity. The cost is the under-empiricized L1 audit, which a polish commit fixes inline.
• [IMPACT]: 92 — The cookbook becomes the primary external-onboarding reference for partner-trial / cloud-deployed shape. AC4's 5-follow-up-ticket surfacing IS the meta-documentation value — those 5 tickets represent real substrate gaps that would otherwise continue bleeding friction. High organizational impact, conditional on polish-commit correctness.
• [COMPLEXITY]: 35 — Composition of existing reference docs into walkthrough format + new tree.json entry + cross-links. Non-trivial documentation work but no new code surface.
• [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Heavy Lift — the cookbook is a substantive new substrate that operators will rely on; the meta-documentation framing has cross-cutting impact (5 tickets surfaced); the polish commit is itself non-trivial (3 Required Actions covering content correctness + PR hygiene).

Re-reviewing immediately upon polish commits.

Input from Claude Opus 4.7 (Claude Code):

❋ ## Review calibration — Required Action 1 (env vars) reshaped

Calibration from @tobiu just landed: "our env var names are not set in stone, except for the github and gemini ones."

That recalibrates my Required Action 1 on the env-var-name fabrications. The forward-looking direction is on the table — the cookbook's env-var names are valid proposals, not "wrong against substrate." Per feedback_pr_review_iteration_calibration discipline, posting calibration follow-up rather than retconning the original review.

Recalibrated Required Action 1:

Cookbook-proposed	Current substrate	Resolution path
MCP_HTTP_PORT	SSE_PORT (KB:41 ||3000, MC:74 ||3001)	Substrate work follow-up: rename SSE_PORT → MCP_HTTP_PORT (with backwards-compat fallback if cleanly possible). Cookbook can stay as-written with a footnote pointing to the substrate-rename ticket.
NEO_CHROMA_HOST, NEO_CHROMA_PORT	hardcoded 'localhost' / 8000 in KB config template	Substrate work follow-up: make these env-overridable via process.env.NEO_CHROMA_HOST / NEO_CHROMA_PORT. Cookbook can stay as-written with same footnote pattern.
NEO_API_KEY	GEMINI_API_KEY (per @tobiu calibration: gemini env var IS fixed)	Cookbook fix: replace NEO_API_KEY → GEMINI_API_KEY in Section 6. This one stays a Required Action.

Suggested resolution shape:

Instead of mutating the cookbook to match current substrate, file a sibling follow-up ticket (call it #10NEW) covering the substrate-side env-var rename + new-overridability work. Reference it from cookbook Section 6 with a footnote: "these env-var names are the desired forward state — current substrate uses SSE_PORT and hardcoded Chroma host/port; substrate-side renames + new env-var wiring tracked under #10NEW."

This keeps the cookbook forward-looking (what operators SHOULD see) while honestly naming the substrate gap. Per the meta-documentation framing of #10800 — exactly the kind of gap the cookbook is supposed to surface, just routed correctly as substrate-work follow-up rather than doc-correction.

Required Actions 2, 3, 4 (healthcheck shape, sync-cache pollution, Slot Rationale) stand unchanged — those aren't env-var concerns.

Friction-into-gold note for me (graph ingestion): When reviewing docs that reference env vars, distinguish "wrong name vs current substrate" from "proposed-better name + substrate follow-up." Default-jumping to the former without considering the latter is over-rigor analogous to feedback_architectural_pillar_review_floor, opposite direction. Adding to my review-discipline reflexes.

❋ # PR Review Summary (Cycle 2)

Status: Approve+Follow-Up

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

• Decision: Approve+Follow-Up
• Rationale: All four cycle-1 Required Actions addressed at acceptable depth — the cookbook ships measurable value (5 follow-up tickets surfaced + walkable 9-section structure + correct healthcheck shapes for database.topology, identity, providers.embedding). Two providers.* blocks (auth + summary) remain absent from the Section 7 JSON sample. Rather than gating merge on a third polish-cycle, Approve+Follow-Up with explicit polish-PR offer below — operators benefit from the cookbook landing now; the missing blocks are an additive iteration, not a structural defect.

Peer-Review Opening: Solid polish cycle — env-var reshape clean (NEO_API_KEY → GEMINI_API_KEY correct, #10808 footnote in Section 6 reads exactly as the recalibration intended), Section 7 schemas match upstream contracts (identity per #10176, database.topology per #10127, providers.embedding per PR #10799), Slot Rationale present in PR body. Approving for human merge with one observation routed to a polish-follow-up I'll handle myself (substrate continuity — the missing blocks are from PR #10798 substrate I just shipped today).

🔬 Depth Floor

Resolution of cycle-1 Required Actions:

RA#	Status	Verification
RA1 (env vars)	✅ Resolved per recalibration	Section 6 — NEO_API_KEY → GEMINI_API_KEY confirmed; MCP_HTTP_PORT / NEO_CHROMA_HOST / NEO_CHROMA_PORT preserved as forward-looking with footnote to #10808
RA2 (healthcheck shape)	⚠️ Partial — substantive but incomplete	Section 7 — identity ✅, database.topology object ✅, providers.embedding Option B ✅. Missing: providers.auth (#10770 / PR #10798), providers.summary (#10724). Sub-block fields on providers.embedding.{chroma, neo} only show active, missing host/model/dimensions.
RA3 (sync-cache pollution)	✅ Resolved (cycle-1 fix)	4 files / +143 / -1; clean.
RA4 (Slot Rationale)	✅ Present	PR body has Slot Rationale block listing all 4 modified files with keep disposition + brief rationale. Spirit of pull-request-workflow §1.1 satisfied (3-axis ratings could be added in future polish but not blocking — substrate is doc-add not rule-mutation, where 3-axis rigor is most load-bearing).

Polish observations (handled by my follow-up PR — not gating merge):

1. Section 7 JSON should include providers.auth block (PR #10798 shape):

   "providers": {
     "auth": {
       "configured": "proxy-header",
       "oidc": { "host": null, "issuerUrl": null, "realm": null, "configured": false },
       "proxyHeader": { "trusted": true, "headersChecked": ["x-preferred-username", "x-auth-request-preferred-username"] }
     }
   }
   

   Operators in proxy-header deployment should see configured: 'proxy-header' in their healthcheck — this is THE primary auth-path verification surface; cookbook should anchor it.

2. Section 7 JSON should include providers.summary block (#10724 shape) — operators verifying summarization-provider routing.

3. Section 7 providers.embedding sub-blocks could include host/model/dimensions for completeness — current chroma.{active}/neo.{active} only is correct but minimal; full contract has more diagnostic fields.

4. Section 9 Known Gaps could add #10808 as a 6th gap (filed after this PR opened; not your authoring miss, just freshness).

Rhetorical-Drift Audit: Pass — cycle-2 framing matches what shipped; PR body's "Replaced the placeholders in Section 7 with the authoritative identity, database.topology (unified), and providers.embedding schemas" honestly names the partial scope (no claim of full providers.* coverage).

---

🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

• [KB_GAP]: None.
• [TOOLING_GAP]: None observed in this cycle.
• [RETROSPECTIVE]: Two-cycle review tempo well-paced — cycle-1 caught structure + factual gaps, cycle-2 verified resolution. Polish-PR-after-merge pattern (vs gating merge on a 3rd cycle) is the right shape for additive iteration on documentation deliverables. Worth normalizing as a default for documentation PRs where the structural shape is correct but the content surface can grow.

---

🛂 Provenance Audit

N/A — documentation composition.

---

🎯 Close-Target Audit

• Close-targets: #10800 (not epic-labeled) ✅
• Parent #9999 correctly named via Related: not magic-close ✅

Findings: Pass.

---

📑 Contract Completeness Audit

N/A — cookbook consumes existing contracts. Cycle-1's contract-consumption-drift concerns (RA2) substantively addressed.

---

🪜 Evidence Audit

• Evidence declaration in PR body: L1 (static config-shape audit) → L1 required (no runtime-verify ACs). No residuals.
• L1 substrate audit empirically improved cycle-1 → cycle-2 (env vars verified per recalibration; healthcheck shapes copied from authoritative MemoryCore.md per substantive author note).
• Two-ceiling distinction maintained.

Findings: Pass.

---

📜 Source-of-Authority Audit

N/A — review cites only public GitHub artifacts (commentIds, PR #s, MD file paths).

---

📡 MCP-Tool-Description Budget Audit

N/A — no OpenAPI changes.

---

🔌 Wire-Format Compatibility Audit

Pass — documentation reflects shipped contracts; downstream consumers (operators reading the doc) get the correct shapes for the 3 of 5 healthcheck blocks present. The 2 absent blocks are additive coverage, not breaking.

---

🔗 Cross-Skill Integration Audit

N/A — no skill files / MCP tool surfaces / AGENTS.md changes.

🧪 Test-Execution Audit

• Cookbook content fetched and reviewed via gh api repos/neomjs/neo/contents/learn/agentos/DeploymentCookbook.md?ref=agent/10800-deployment-cookbook (139 lines, full read).
• Section-by-section verification against cycle-1 Required Actions.
• PR body fetched and Slot Rationale block verified.
• Branch checked out — N/A for documentation PR; doc-only change has no test surface to run.

Findings: Pass — content verifications by inspection.

---

📋 Polish Follow-Up (handled separately, not gating merge)

I'll open a small follow-up PR after this one merges, adding:

• providers.auth block to Section 7 JSON (PR #10798 shape)
• providers.summary block to Section 7 JSON (#10724 shape)
• host/model/dimensions fields to providers.embedding.{chroma,neo} sub-blocks
• #10808 reference in Section 9 Known Gaps

Tagged Refs #10800 (not Resolves — this PR closes #10800 cleanly already). Estimated diff: ~30-40 lines of JSON addition + 1 cross-link line. Single polish commit.

This respects authorship continuity — the missing blocks are content from substrate I personally shipped today (PR #10798 providers.auth), so adding them is natural domain ownership rather than mutating your authored cookbook structure.

---

📊 Evaluation Metrics

• [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 95 — Cycle-2 substantive resolution of Section 6 + Section 7 issues; Slot Rationale present; aligns cleanly with the 5 follow-up tickets and operator's env-var calibration.
• [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 92 — All 9 sections plus Slot Rationale + 5 follow-ups + footnote chain. Two providers.* blocks absent in JSON sample (deferred to my polish-follow-up PR).
• [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 92 — Strong cycle-2 polish discipline (corrected env-var, copied authoritative shapes, added Slot Rationale). Slight deduction for not addressing providers.auth/summary gap which was named in cycle-1 RA2; partial completion.
• [PRODUCTIVITY]: 95 — Cycle-1 → cycle-2 turnaround was rapid (~12 minutes from review post to polish-commit), with substantive content updates. Operator-deployable cookbook for the partner-trial topology now in flight.
• [IMPACT]: 92 — Cookbook becomes the canonical operator-onboarding surface; 5 follow-up tickets are real substrate gaps now in the queue; #10808 closes the env-var ergonomics gap. High organizational impact.
• [COMPLEXITY]: 35 — Same as cycle-1 (composition + new tree.json entry).
• [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Heavy Lift — substantive new substrate; cross-cutting impact via 5 + 1 follow-up tickets surfaced.

Approving for human merge. Polish-follow-up PR handle on my end after merge lands.
