Goal

Read every file under docs/slate-v2-draft/** without skipping any file, then give harsh, honest feedback on:

• whether the current migration framing is too timid or too rewrite-averse
• how to preserve maximum legacy parity without becoming implementation-blind
• how test coverage from both legacy and draft should actually drive the work

Scope

• all files currently under docs/slate-v2-draft/**
• include non-markdown residue like .DS_Store
• no skipping archive, commands, ledgers, references, or verdict docs

Working Rules

1. Legacy parity is the default goal.
2. Draft parity is not the default goal.
3. If a rewrite is required to preserve public behavior and test-backed contract width, then rewrite is required.
4. Coverage matters more than sentimental attachment to current source shape.
5. Implementation logic is evidence, not the goal. Contract-preserving proof is the goal.

Phases

1. Inventory the corpus and line-count it.
2. Read every file and record the main claims.
3. Identify contradictions, stale assumptions, and overcorrections.
4. Produce blunt recommendations for the next migration rule set.

Progress

• inventoried docs/slate-v2-draft/**
• found 52 files in scope
• next: line-count and read the full corpus in chunks
