Maintain Project Context

Run a deliberate hygiene pass across the durable context that future work will reuse. Make the current meaning easier to retrieve without becoming the decision-maker for any artifact.

Preserve authority

• Apply a meaning only when the user confirmed it, explicitly delegated that class of decision, or an authoritative project source already states it.
• Use shipped code to spot stale documentation, not to prove intent. Do not change product code during this pass.
• Leave sources unchanged when their intended meaning conflicts or shipment is unclear. Ask the exact question required to continue; never choose by file date, implementation prevalence, labels such as accepted, or silence.
• Preserve a current fact or decision only in the artifact that owns it. Do not build a parallel summary or copy the same authority across files.
