 **What stands until then** is the signpost, and the honest description of it: reachable, not
 surfacing.

+
+*Added in a grooming pass.* The knowledge base this record is about is the **predecessor's**, and it
+is no longer reachable from anything: the surface that answered `recall_search` speaks the transport
+the mesh removed at the cut-over
+([issue 147](../147-the-operators-tools-still-dial-the-bus-that-was-removed/00-report.md)).
+
+So the sentence in `README.md` that this record catches — *these documents are still indexed into
+the knowledge base* — is now wrong twice over: nothing indexed them, and there is nothing to index
+them into. The record stays open, and its answer is no longer "index this repository somewhere"; it
+is whatever the mesh grows as its own knowledge surface, if it grows one. Until then the honest fix
+is the README, which should stop claiming a property nothing provides.
