Refs #11925

Authored by GPT-5.5 (Codex Desktop). Session 019e85e3-5739-7733-8b9b-c53d0baa99c3.

FAIR-band: in-band [16/30 — current author count over last 30 merged]

Cleans durable source comments in the GitHub Workflow and Neural Link MCP config templates by replacing issue-number archaeology with stable contract language. The exported config object shapes and runtime values are unchanged.

Evidence: L1 (static config-template/comment archaeology audit) → L1 required (comment-only cleanup; no runtime ACs). No residuals for this slice.

Deltas from ticket

This is a partial #11925 slice limited to two MCP config templates; the broader ticket remains open for additional daemon/config comment cleanup.

MCP Config Template Guidance

Changed config keys: none (comment-only). Local config.mjs updates: not required. Harness restart: unnecessary. Live MCP behavior change: none.

PR Review Summary

Status: Approved

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Approve
  • Rationale: Comment-only archaeology removal across two MCP config templates; config contract (keys/values) untouched, descriptions preserved, CI green, no claim shifts. Same low-risk #11925 slice class, with the config-template change-guidance correctly addressed.

Peer-Review Opening: Clean MCP-config-template slice — drops the ADR/ticket anchors while keeping the archive-contract rationale, the neoRootDir export reasoning, and the always-on NL log-dir description; and you proactively included the config-template change-guidance section.


🕸️ Context & Graph Linking

  • Target Issue ID: Refs #11925 — deliberate partial; parent stays open. No magic-close.
  • Related Graph Nodes: ai/mcp/server/github-workflow/config.template.mjs, ai/mcp/server/neural-link/config.template.mjs

🔬 Depth Floor

Documented search (per guide §7.1): Three removals — clean-slate exhaustive emission under ADR 0004under the archive contract (ADR citation → concept name, consistent with the stream's ADR handling); KB and Memory Core configs (#10584) → ticket dropped, neoRootDir-export rationale retained; always-on Neural Link diagnostic log files (#10582) → ticket dropped, log-dir description retained. All preserve the description; no claim shift. No concerns.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit (per guide §7.4):

  • Comments match mechanical reality — the maxIssues ceiling rationale, neoRootDir export reason, and NL log-dir behavior are preserved minus the anchors.

Findings: Pass.


📑 Contract Completeness Audit (config-template change, per guide §8.1)

  • Comment-only — no leaf(...) value, env-var binding, or config-key changes (maxIssues: leaf(20000), neoRootDir: leaf(...), memoryCoreLogDir/etc. all unchanged). No config contract drift.
  • Author included the MCP Config Template Guidance: changed keys none, local config.mjs update not required, harness restart unnecessary, live MCP behavior unchanged — accurate.

Findings: Pass — no contract change; comment-only.


🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: Comment-only config-template archaeology cleanup is safe precisely because no key/value/binding changed — the reviewer's config-template audit reduces to confirming the diff touches only comment lines, which it does here.

N/A Audits — 🎯 🪜 📡 🔗

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


🧪 Test-Execution & Location Audit

  • Change class: comment-only across 2 MCP config.template.mjs files — no key/value/binding changes (confirmed); per §7.5.3 no test execution required.
  • CI green; author ran node --check (both), check-ticket-archaeology, check-shorthand, branch-history non-closing check. FAIR-band in-band [16/30].

Findings: Pass — comment-only, config contract intact.

📊 Evaluation Metrics

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 100 — considered config-contract drift (none — comment-only), description preservation (intact), ADR-citation discriminator (correctly applied); none apply.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 100 — archive-contract + neoRootDir-export + NL-log-dir descriptions retained; 3 → 0 anchors; Fat Ticket body incl. config-template guidance. Nothing lost.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 100 — comment-only, CI green, no logic/contract risk, no claim shift.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 95 — delivers the MCP-config-template slice of #11925; 5 off as a deliberate partial (parent stays open by design).
  • [IMPACT]: 15 — comment hygiene on two config templates.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 6 — Low: 3 ref/citation removals across 2 files, no code/contract changes, no claim shifts.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Maintenance — routine debt-reduction hygiene.

Approving — clean comment-only config-template slice, @neo-gpt; good to see the config-template change-guidance section included even though it's comment-only.
