# STATE-WP-0065 — Repo-anchored classification spine

**Origin / driver:** `the-custodian/workplans/CUST-WP-0050-repo-classification-registration-redesign.md`
(custodian coordination workplan; owns the canon standard and the portfolio
decisions D1/D1a + ADR-005). This workplan is the **state-hub-local
implementation** of CUST-WP-0050 Phase 3–4, re-homed per that plan's repo
boundary note and ADR-001.

## Inputs already in place (from CUST-WP-0050)

- **Standard + allowed-values:** `the-custodian/canon/standards/repo-classification-standard_v1.0.md`
  and `…/repo-classification.allowed.yaml` (5 categories incl. `tooling`, 14
  market domains, business_stake/mechanics enums, capability families).
- **Validator:** `the-custodian/tools/validate_repo_classification.py` (self-test PASS).
- **Fixtures:** all 11 custodian-domain repos carry committed, human-reviewed
  `.repo-classification.yaml` (`classified_by: human`). Use these to build and
  test against; no dependency on classifying the full Gitea inventory first.
- **Decisions:** D1 (repo is the primary anchor; market-domain derived from
  classification; topic demoted/retired). ADR-005 (cross-repo workplans anchor to
  a dedicated project repo, retired on completion).

## Goal

Replace the Hub's ad-hoc 14-domain spine with the repo-anchored classification
model: the **repo** (plus its committed `.repo-classification.yaml`) becomes the
primary anchor for workplans; market-domain is **derived** from classification;
`workstream` is renamed to `workplan`. The Hub stays fully rebuildable from
repo-owned files (ADR-001).

## Phases / Tasks

### P1 — Spine migration (single Alembic revision)

```task
id: STATE-WP-0065-T01
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "14cf65f1-e5af-4905-8de4-bc8986ef078e"
```

One coordinated migration (merges CUST-WP-0050 T04 + T05 + T10 — they rewrite the
same spine, so a single window avoids migrating rows two or three times):

- Replace `domains` table contents with the **14 fixed market domains**
  (infotech, financials, communication, consumer, health, industrials, energy,
  utilities, materials, realestate, crypto, agents, space, government).
- Add classification storage to `managed_repos`: `category`, primary `domain_id`,
  `secondary_domains[]`, `capability_tags[]`, `business_stake[]`,
  `business_mechanics[]`, plus provenance (`classified_at`, `classified_by`,
  `standard_version`).
- Make `workstreams.repo_id` the **required** anchor; demote `topic_id` to
  nullable (optional cross-repo tag). Promote `RepoGoal` to the goal primitive;
  reduce `DomainGoal` to a thin rollup keyed by the 14 market domains.
- **Rename `workstream` → `workplan`** across the table, FKs (workstream_dependency,
  repo_goal, task.workstream_id, progress_event, decision, etc.), models, and
  schemas.
- **Data migration:** backfill `repo_id` on every workstream (no orphans); map old
  14 domains → new model per standard §15; assign existing 57 registered repos a
  **derived** classification (`classified_by: migration`) so nothing orphans;
  resolve discrepancies — reconcile `markitect-project`↔`markitect-main`, retire
  phantom `railiance-bootstrap`/`railiance-hosts` (or relink), collapse the
  `vergabe_teilnahme` duplicate, decide `personhood` disposition.

Done when forward migration applies with zero orphaned coordination records, a
dry-run report is reviewed, and a tested downgrade path exists.

### P2 — API / MCP / validation surface

```task
id: STATE-WP-0065-T02
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "d3afcae1-d47e-42f1-bad8-1de4bd1f126a"
```

- Enforce the T01 allowed-values at the API boundary (import the canon
  `repo-classification.allowed.yaml`); reject invalid category/domain/tags/stake/
  mechanics.
- Rename `workstream` → `workplan` across REST routes, Pydantic schemas, MCP
  tools/resources, and `mcp_server/TOOLS.md`; provide compatibility/redirect notes
  for existing tool callers.
- Expose list/filter-by-classification (category, domain, capability, business
  stake) in MCP/REST.

Done when the API/MCP surface uses "workplan", validates classification, and tests
are green.

### P3 — Auto-registration tooling

```task
id: STATE-WP-0065-T03
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "bab90f0c-238e-4f43-b34c-a8cdd8faf0e6"
```

Build an idempotent `register-from-classification` capability (Make target +
script + MCP tool): given a repo (local path or Gitea API), read
`.repo-classification.yaml`, validate against T01, and upsert the `managed_repo`
with the full classification. Support a **bulk** run and reclassification of
existing rows. Reuse the k3s/Gitea access path (Gitea in k3s on coulombcore via
`kubectl port-forward svc/gitea-http`).

Done when one command registers/reclassifies every repo with a valid file and
emits a report of registered / updated / skipped / invalid.

### P4 — Surfaces & cutover

```task
id: STATE-WP-0065-T04
status: done
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "67c54009-823d-466b-beaf-f27351c279f4"
```

- Dashboard: navigate by category / domain / capability / business-stake.
- Consistency checker: add a rule flagging registered repos lacking a valid
  `.repo-classification.yaml`; update existing C-rules coupled to the old domain
  model to avoid mass false positives.
- Update orientation docs that assume the old domain model (`SCOPE.md`,
  `README.md`, `.claude/rules/*` in the-custodian and state-hub).
- Cutover: switch orientation/registration tooling to the new model end-to-end,
  archive the old domain semantics, run `make fix-consistency REPO=the-custodian`.

Done when an end-to-end pass (classify → auto-register → dashboard view) is
verified and the old ad-hoc domain model is retired.

## Sequencing

P1 → P2 (P2 depends on the renamed/extended schema). P3 depends on P2's
validation + classification columns. P4 last (consuming surfaces + cutover).
Lazy reclassification of already-registered repos (CUST-WP-0050 T07) runs via P3
as committed `.repo-classification.yaml` files appear — not an upfront batch.
Classifying + registering the remaining Gitea inventory is a **post-cutover** task
under the new model (CUST-WP-0050 T11).

## Risks

- **Breaking-migration blast radius:** `domain_id`/`topic_id` thread through ~11
  models and ~12 routers/schemas; `workstream` through ~14 routers + MCP server +
  TOOLS.md. Mitigate with reviewed dry-run + tested downgrade (P1) and merging the
  three spine changes into one window.
- **Consistency-checker coupling:** existing C-rules assume the current domain
  model; update alongside (P4).
