First pass of a design review, done by reading documents against code and against a raised mesh rather than against each other. Every error below was invisible to a proofread. **Statuses were stale, and nothing checked them.** Ten to-be documents said `designed` while naming working, lab-proven code — several with a *What was built* or *Raised, and observed* section. Added a `status-vs-code` check: naming a file is a claim that the file implements this, so a document that points at one has stopped being merely designed. It failed on all ten before it passed, per the rule this folder sets for its own checks. **The bundle carries three images, not two.** 07 reasoned about which substrate services go in and overlooked that the control plane is in there too — it is what the substrate exists to start, and there is nothing to fetch it with yet. Counted, not deduced. **The bootstrap uses four shapes, not six.** It listed `file` and `directory`, which substrate-first-node.lock never asks for. The claim that mattered — nothing is blocked on the host — was true either way, which is why the wrong count survived. **The eight capabilities were documented nowhere.** Implemented in internal/profile/detectors.go and enumerated in no document, including the one about the host that detects them. A vocabulary modules write against, readable only by reading the code. Now written down, with the seat/graphical-session distinction that is wrong in both directions if collapsed. **MinIO swept out of the to-be layer** per 0028. The gate now fails on one thing left deliberately: ADR 0024 is `proposed` while two documents rest on it and the feature it decides is built and lab-proven. Accepting a decision is not mine to do.
03-DESIGN / 01-to-be
The mesh being built toward. Every statement here traces to a record in
02-DECISIONS/; nothing arrives by drafting.
A document here describes an intention. What currently runs is in
00-as-is/, and the two are never merged — when something ships, the as-is
document is written and this one's status becomes implemented.

ADR 0006
settles the list at seven;
connectivityis the first written in full (08) and the other six do not exist yet. The work breakdown says in what order they are needed. Domain grouping outside the core.Not needed. ADR 0009 is superseded by ADR 0009: there is no domain module to group into, so there is no domain list to settle. Relationships are edges, and grouping is a tag and a query.
