Problem

Four critical documentation files are referenced throughout the codebase but do not exist, creating confusion and incomplete understanding of core systems.

Missing Files

  1. CHAMPIONSHIPS.md - Referenced in docs/reference/FACTORY_PATTERN.md:305

    • Purpose: Document championship competition system for variant evaluation
    • Expected: Tournament structure, scoring metrics, winner determination
  2. RUMINATION.md - Referenced in docs/reference/FACTORY_PATTERN.md:306

    • Purpose: Document daily rumination process for promoting winners
    • Expected: Promotion cycle, criteria, demotion process
  3. CAPABILITY_EVOLUTION.md - Referenced in docs/reference/FACTORY_PATTERN.md:307

    • Purpose: Document capability evolution lifecycle
    • Expected: Factory to Nerve to Championship to Muscle flow
  4. BONES.md - Referenced in docs/reference/TOOL_ARCHITECTURE.md:337

    • Purpose: Document bone compilation and fast-path execution
    • Expected: Compilation triggers, performance comparison, invalidation

Impact

  • Developer confusion - Referenced docs do not exist
  • Incomplete understanding - Core systems undocumented
  • Onboarding difficulty - New developers cannot find critical info
  • Architecture gaps - Cannot verify if implementation matches design

Scope (MINIMAL)

  1. Create CHAMPIONSHIPS.md with tournament documentation
  2. Create RUMINATION.md with promotion/demotion process
  3. Create CAPABILITY_EVOLUTION.md with lifecycle documentation
  4. Create BONES.md with compilation and execution details

Files

  • docs/reference/CHAMPIONSHIPS.md (new)
  • docs/reference/RUMINATION.md (new)
  • docs/reference/CAPABILITY_EVOLUTION.md (new)
  • docs/reference/BONES.md (new)

Acceptance Criteria

  • CHAMPIONSHIPS.md created with complete tournament documentation
  • RUMINATION.md created with promotion/demotion process
  • CAPABILITY_EVOLUTION.md created with lifecycle documentation
  • BONES.md created with compilation and execution details
  • All references validated and working
  • Blocks understanding of factory pattern
  • Related to Issue #104 (worker_factory bootstrap)

Cross-reference: This issue is now related to:

  • PRIMITIVE-001 (#206) - Define contract primitive type
  • PRIMITIVE-002 (#207) - Update FACTORY_PATTERN.md

The missing documentation files (CHAMPIONSHIPS.md, RUMINATION.md, CAPABILITY_EVOLUTION.md, BONES.md) are still needed, but the terminology refactoring has changed some context:

  • "Capability Evolution" should now be "Primitive Evolution"
  • References to capabilities/ paths need updating to primitives/

Priority: These docs are blocking developer understanding of the factory/championship/rumination system.
