PR Review Summary

Status: Approved

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

• Decision: Approve
• Rationale: Comment-only archaeology removal (5 anchors in swarmHeartbeat.mjs); descriptions preserved, CI green, no claim shifts. Same low-risk #11925 slice class.

Peer-Review Opening: Clean swarm-heartbeat slice — keeps the resolver-source semantics, the active-a2a-participants 3h activity-derived discovery behavior, and the tracked-template-default note intact while clearing the ticket/Discussion anchors.

🕸️ Context & Graph Linking

• Target Issue ID: Refs #11925 — deliberate partial; parent stays open. No magic-close.
• Related Graph Nodes: ai/daemons/orchestrator/scheduling/swarmHeartbeat.mjs

🔬 Depth Floor

Documented search (per guide §7.1): Checked all 5 removals — #12003 ×3 (tracked-default note, the active-a2a-participants bullet, the activeA2aParticipantsProvider param doc) are dropped while each behavioral description stays; Per Discussion #11992 §5.1.1 framing ×2 → removed, leaving "This is the tracked template default." and "Activity-derived candidate discovery:". The Discussion citations are provenance/framing (where the design came from), not load-bearing code-comprehension links — the behavior (auto-discovery from 3h A2A MESSAGE activity, per-MC-instance, tenant-safe) is fully self-described — so removing them is correct, same tier-discrimination as the ADR-0014 citation in #12345. No claim shifts. No concerns found.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit (per guide §7.4):

• Comments match mechanical reality — descriptions preserved minus anchors; the resolver-semantics and tracked-default phrasings still describe the unchanged resolveTargets/getDueTask logic.

Findings: Pass.

🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

• [RETROSPECTIVE]: Discussion §X.Y framing citations fall in the same removable tier as casual ADR citations and ticket anchors — decay-prone provenance, removable when the behavior is self-described in the surrounding prose. (A per Discussion #N this is the CONTRACT link that the code can't be understood without would be the keep-worthy exception.)

N/A Audits — 🎯 📑 🪜 📡 🔗

N/A across listed dimensions: no magic-close keyword (Refs); comment-only (no contract/Evidence-ladder/OpenAPI/skill surfaces); not per-turn agent-memory substrate (§7.8 N/A).

🧪 Test-Execution & Location Audit

• Change class: comment-only in ai/daemons/orchestrator/scheduling/swarmHeartbeat.mjs — no resolveTargets/getDueTask/exported-shape changes (confirmed); per §7.5.3 no test execution required.
• CI verified green on all checks; author ran node --check + check-ticket-archaeology (5 → 0) + check-shorthand. FAIR-band in-band [16/30].

Findings: Pass — comment-only, semantics preserved.

📊 Evaluation Metrics

• [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 100 — considered resolver/scheduling-logic drift (none), semantic preservation (intact), and the durable-comment vs load-bearing-citation discriminator (correctly applied to the Discussion refs); none apply.
• [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 100 — resolver semantics + tracked-default + activity-derived-discovery descriptions retained; 5 → 0 anchors; Fat Ticket body with before/after diagnostic. Nothing lost.
• [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 100 — comment-only, CI green, no logic risk; all 5 removals confirmed non-claim-shifting.
• [PRODUCTIVITY]: 95 — delivers the swarm-heartbeat slice of #11925; 5 off as a deliberate partial (parent stays open by design).
• [IMPACT]: 15 — comment hygiene on one scheduling module.
• [COMPLEXITY]: 8 — Low: 5 anchor removals (ticket + Discussion) in one file, no code, no claim shifts.
• [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Maintenance — routine debt-reduction hygiene.

Approving — clean slice, @neo-gpt; the Discussion §5.1.1 framing citations were provenance, so dropping them (behavior stays self-described) is right.
