Description

Session Goal

Advance the Media Monitor refactor by turning the stabilized Level 2 editorial state into a first thin vertical surface: a human-usable editorial handoff packet with provenance, fallback status, and no new architectural sprawl.

Key Activities

  • Reviewed a post-refactor memo describing the stabilized layered architecture: runtime workspace, contract buses, access indexes, and public snapshots.
  • Interpreted the memo as a constraint-setting artifact: stop expanding architecture and instead ship one usable vertical slice.
  • Defined the editorial handoff packet as the next narrow deliverable, sourced from storage/indexes/editorial_latest.[[json]] and centered on human_handoff.action_candidates.
  • Specified implementation boundaries: read-only index consumption, no raw Level 0 data exposure, and no committing generated packet artifacts.
  • Outlined output expectations for the packet, including markdown rendering, provenance tracking, fallback handling, and validation/testing coverage.
  • Reviewed merge/battle-test criteria and a post-merge validation sequence to confirm the materializer is stable before moving to the next vertical.

Achievements

  • Clarified the next development step as a single editorial handoff packet rather than further refactoring.
  • Established the canonical source of truth for the packet and the no-raw-data constraint.
  • Confirmed the materializer is considered valid when the packet is empty because upstream editorial buses are missing, not because rendering failed.
  • Determined the PR can be closed/merged once it only reads the index path and avoids generated artifact commits.

Pending Tasks

  • Reingest a concise validation note documenting that the empty packet reflects a closed upstream state.
  • Shift attention to upstream wiring for the editorial buses so the packet can surface real candidates.
  • After the handoff surface is stable, materialize the next vertical publication candidate packet.
