Synchronize documentation with integrated behavior

[metaphorics]

Question

After the integrated public surface settles, run sync-docs in before-release scope against the repository's remote default branch. Enumerate changed public source, manifests, configuration, and CLI surfaces; derive exact filenames, import paths, exported symbols, flags, versions, and observable behavior; then map them to README.md, CHANGELOG.md, root Markdown, and docs/**/*.md. Apply only mechanically exact version-label replacements and a restrained ## [Unreleased] entry. Flag every semantic example, removed export, import-path, behavior, and prose change for deliberate repair with source and line evidence. Then repair those flagged items under their owning refactor tickets and re-run the mapping until no drift remains.

Do not guess replacement examples, mass-replace version-looking numbers, rewrite generated snapshots, or treat append-only changelog history as drift.

• Audit documentation rules and build surfaces
• Integrate every refactor target

Child issue mapping (2026-08-31)

The ten documentation/residue children that feed this ticket:

Symbolic name	Issue	Title	Blockers
DRB-1	#189	[DRB-1] Correct false release-gate prose in runbook and changelog	#163, #179
DRB-2	#190	[DRB-2] Consolidate volatile package and product status claims	#163, #168, #183, #180
DRB-3	#191	[DRB-3] Reconcile CLI docs against parser and dispatch evidence	#163, #168, #179, #170
DRB-4	#192	Prove .agents/ reachability and strip copied facts from developer-audience-context	external harness convention
DRB-5	#195	Compress documentation hierarchy to one owner per fact	#190 (DRB-2), #191 (DRB-3)
DRB-6	#193	Purge regenerable ignored cache/worktree residue under recovery rules	workspace-owner consent, idle window
DRB-8	#196	DRB-8: Unify bench/ E5 and perf/ schema-v2 performance authority	#163, #170, #191 (DRB-3)
DRB-9	#194	DRB-9: Compress formal policy and generated-output carriers through the formal integrator	formal cluster integrator, P0.7 freeze
DRB-11	#197	DRB-11: Reset CHANGELOG.md to user-visible history	#189 (DRB-1), #190 (DRB-2, minor), #187 (DRB-7/root-ownership, minor)
DRB-12	#198	DRB-12: Classify missing stage-1 and S1-S11 baseline/scorecard artifacts	#196 (DRB-8), #193 (DRB-6, minor)

Not children (reused, not duplicated):

• DRB-7 (root-ownership residue) → reuses Decide root package ownership and the implicit src/main.rs bin #187 (root package ownership decision).
• DRB-10 (formal toolchain freshness) → reuses Ground every repository release pin #183 (ground release pins) and Upgrade dependencies after refactor integration #184 (upgrade dependencies).

Dependency ordering note: DRB-8 (#196) → DRB-12 (#198). DRB-8 does not depend on DRB-12. No cycle.
