This directory contains both maintained operator documentation and historical records. Use this page for current navigation; point-in-time reports remain in place for audit context but are not live runbooks unless they are linked below as canonical documents.
Current baseline: repo-wide refresh audit dated May 11, 2026, building on
main through PR #1721, with the May 12 architecture triage overlay for
docs/architecture file dispositions and the May 12 CLI reference alignment
for docs/cli.

| Area | Canonical Docs | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Portal / API | Portal Quickstart, API docs | /healthz, /ready, /v1/readiness, and job lifecycle routes are current governed surfaces. PR #1562 and later follow-ups added typed OpenAPI response models while preserving existing wire contracts. |
| Secure front door | Front Door Quickstart | Node 22.x is the enforced local/runtime contract for web/secure-landing. |
| Managed paid-pilot staging | Managed Paid-Pilot Staging Runbook, Paid-Pilot Managed-Services Smoke Gate | Phase 5.A is locally validated at 07a3e8e847dee4a6e1ccf46d6dcd80b612fe3753; managed-provider validation remains pending until the same gate passes against provider Postgres, Redis, and S3-compatible storage. |
| Docker / environment | Main README, .env.example |
Docker Compose reads the root .env template with required: false; set TP_API_KEY for non-throwaway runs. |
| CI / validation | Workflow Matrix, CI/CD Workflows | The current GitHub Actions inventory contains 30 workflows after the Phase 1.4 refresh. |
| Agent / Copilot guidance | Custom Agent Guide, Agent Quick Reference, Copilot Instructions, CLAUDE.md | Live agent behavior is governed by .github/agents/, Copilot instructions, CLAUDE.md, and docs/architecture/agent_governance.md. |
| Skill progression | Skill Progress Tracks | Maps recurring PR review themes to evidence-linked drills, acceptance tests, and review checklists. |
| TODO governance | TODO Inventory, TODO Action Plan, TODO Quick Reference, TODO Priority Schema | Current scanner-governed baseline: 24 governed NotImplementedError items, 0 ungoverned TODOs, snapshot refreshed May 11, 2026. |
| Archive gates | Archive Machine Contract, 2026-04-27 Archive Gates Audit | Gates A/B/C are documented with the April 27 readiness audit and normalized JSON evidence. |
| APEX / Materials | APEX Governance Status, APEX Workflow Design, APEX Model Family Characterization | Recent merges added offline model-family characterization, failure-code surfacing, confidence-only pixel-op passthrough, V2 fallback, and SAM2 tile-merge regression coverage. |
| CLI references | CLI Index, CLI Reference, Lux Depth V3 CLI Guide, PBR CLI Testing Guide | Maintained CLI docs use repo-governed .venv and Make targets; old PBR coverage/checklist and CLI v1.3 notes are historical evidence. |
| Advisory captioning | FastVLM Runtime | Optional subprocess-isolated sidecars only; captions are advisory and never satisfy APEX or Materials V3 gates. |
| Portal UX/UI planning | Portal UX/UI Status Snapshot | Current planning context through #1721; status snapshot only, not a next-PR selector. |
| Dependency policy | ADR-032, Retired ML Lock Lanes, AGENTS.md | Layered lockfiles and the Apple Silicon target-owned ML lane are the current dependency governance model. |
The repo intentionally retains older project reports, PR notes, quality studies, and session artifacts. Treat these directories as historical unless a current map explicitly links a document as canonical:
docs/750_picacho/,docs/projects/, anddocs/quality_analysis/contain 2025 project-specific analysis and delivery records.docs/depth_model/,docs/pipeline/, anddocs/pipeline_docs/contain older depth-model and luxury-pipeline evaluation material. Current depth behavior is described in the main README, CLI guide, and ADR-019/ADR-015.docs/reports/,docs/status/,docs/session_summaries/,docs/sessions/,docs/historical/, anddocs/pr_archive/are point-in-time records.docs/historical/architecture/anddocs/pr_archive/architecture/contain files moved out ofdocs/architectureby the May 12 architecture triage.docs/historical/cli/contains point-in-time CLI implementation and coverage records moved out of currentdocs/clinavigation by the May 12 CLI alignment.docs/_archive/contains intentionally retired or consolidated material.
Do not use historical documents as operator runbooks without first checking the current documentation map.
docs/README.mdis the only maintained file allowed directly underdocs/.- New documents must live in an approved top-level directory from Documentation Retention Policy.
