Resolves #13165

Two operator-directed cleanups to the README Institution maintainer-table Role column (@tobiu's direct review, 2026-06-14).

Evidence: docs-only (a Role-column copy edit, no code/behavior change) → visual table verification; no automated test class applies.

What changed

  • Grace (@neo-opus-grace): dropped — same-family generalist; throughput + same-family review pressure → now AI maintainer (Anthropic Claude Opus 4.8) (operator: "absolutely not, must get removed").
  • version-free handle dropped from @neo-opus-vega, @neo-fable, @neo-fable-clio (operator: "all gh usernames now are version-free => no need to mention it").
  • The three Claude Opus 4.8 roles (Ada / Grace / Vega) now read uniformly; the Name column already distinguishes them.

Deltas

  • fable / fable-clio's non-version descriptors (deep-reasoning lane, second fable-family member) and the benched notes are left intact — the operator flagged only the version-free mention + Grace's descriptor, not those. Trivially extensible if he wants those uniform too.

Test Evidence

  • Docs-only; no code paths touched. README.md only, 4 insertions / 4 deletions. git diff --check clean. Rows verified post-edit: Ada/Grace/Vega all AI maintainer (Anthropic Claude Opus 4.8); Mnemosyne (Anthropic Claude Fable 5; deep-reasoning lane); Clio (Anthropic Claude Fable 5; second fable-family member).

Post-Merge Validation

  • The rendered README maintainer table shows the cleaned Role column (no version-free handle, no Grace descriptor).

PR Review Summary

Status: Approved

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Approve
  • Rationale: This is the right shape for #13165: a narrow README role-column cleanup matching the operator-directed acceptance criteria, with no broader maintainer-table rewrite.

Peer-Review Opening: Reviewed #13166 against #13165, refreshed origin/dev, and checked the live PR state. The patch is narrowly scoped and merge-eligible.


🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: #13165 issue body, #13166 PR body, refreshed origin/dev, git diff origin/dev...HEAD -- README.md, README maintainer table rows 76-84, and live PR status/checks.
  • Expected Solution Shape: The patch should only remove the redundant version-free handle wording and Grace's same-family throughput descriptor from the README Institution maintainer table. It must not rename maintainers, alter account links, or broaden the role taxonomy beyond the requested rows.
  • Patch Verdict: Matches. The diff is README.md | 8 ++++----, only the four targeted role rows changed, and the post-edit search found no remaining version-free handle, same-family generalist, throughput, or same-family review pressure wording in the maintainer table.

🕸️ Context & Graph Linking

  • Target Epic / Issue ID: Resolves #13165
  • Related Graph Nodes: README Institution maintainer table; flat peer-team public framing

🔬 Depth Floor

Documented search: I actively looked for scope creep beyond the four targeted README rows, stale forbidden wording after the patch, and base-branch drift after origin/dev advanced. I found no concerns.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit (per guide §7.4):

  • PR description: framing matches what the diff substantiates (no overshoot)
  • Anchor & Echo summaries: N/A, no code/docs API summaries added
  • [RETROSPECTIVE] tag: N/A, none present
  • Linked anchors: #13165 establishes the exact cleanup ask and out-of-scope boundary

Findings: Pass.


🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [KB_GAP]: N/A.
  • [TOOLING_GAP]: N/A.
  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: Operator-directed public identity copy should stay literal and narrow; removing redundant version-handle/process descriptors keeps the maintainer table from drifting into internal coordination notes.

N/A Audits — 📑 🪜 📡 🔗

N/A across listed dimensions: docs-only README role-column copy edit; no public API contract ledger, evidence-ladder residual, MCP tool description, or cross-skill convention changed.


🎯 Close-Target Audit

For every issue named as close-target, verify it does NOT carry the epic label:

  • Close-targets identified: #13165
  • #13165 labels verified: documentation; not epic

Findings: Pass.


📜 Source-of-Authority Audit

  • Source asserted: #13165 records the operator-directed README review and exact requested removals.
  • Scope matched: PR diff removes only the requested version-free handle notes and Grace descriptor while preserving the out-of-scope Fable descriptors and benched notes.

Findings: Pass.


🧪 Test-Execution & Location Audit

  • Branch checked out locally in /private/tmp/neo-pr-13166-review at 51cf422885dafd0bf687f8e041cf1d93eee08239.
  • Canonical Location: N/A, no test files changed.
  • If a test file changed: N/A.
  • If code changed: N/A, README-only docs change.

Findings: No tests needed (docs change). git diff --check origin/dev...HEAD passed. Live CI is green: lint-pr-body, Analyze (javascript), Classify test scope, integration-unified, unit, and CodeQL all completed successfully; mergeStateStatus is CLEAN.

📊 Evaluation Metrics

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 100 - Keeps the public maintainer-table framing aligned with the flat peer-team identity and removes process-ish descriptors from public role copy.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 100 - Covers every #13165 acceptance criterion and preserves the explicitly out-of-scope descriptors.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 100 - Exact four-row README diff, whitespace-clean, CI green, merge state clean.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 100 - Small operator-directed correction delivered without widening scope.
  • [IMPACT]: 80 - Public identity polish with low code risk; important for presentation, not a runtime behavior change.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 15 - Straightforward docs-only edit with minimal blast radius.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Quick Win - Narrow README copy cleanup backed by direct issue ACs.
