Phase 2 part 3 of docs/roles-and-teams.md. Create, rename and delete, each returning a discriminated result rather than throwing, so a router can say which rule refused and why instead of parsing an error string. Written by a Sonnet subagent against the plan; reviewed, exercised against the live database, and amended here. The amendment is the reason a review was worth doing. renameRole changes roles.name, and there is no foreign key yet — part 2 ships ON UPDATE CASCADE as its own release — so a rename would leave every holder pointing at a name that no longer exists. It is unreachable today only by accident: manage-users.ts validates against the USER_ROLES union, so a runtime-created role cannot be assigned and a non-system role has no holders. That evaporates the moment part 4 makes UserRole a plain string, and parts 2 and 4 could land in either order. So rename now refuses while anybody holds it, sharing one holder-count definition with delete so the two cannot disagree about what "in use" means. It comes out when the cascade lands, and then the cascade does the job properly by moving holders rather than refusing. Adding that reason made the router's switch non-exhaustive, which the typechecker caught — the discriminated-result shape earning its keep on its first change. System roles refuse both rename and delete: the platform's own code names them by string, so renaming one is a code change that has not happened. Delete never reassigns holders to a fallback, because that is a permission change nobody asked for. Exercised end to end: duplicate, empty name, system rename, system delete, a real rename, a rename onto an existing name, delete, and delete of something absent. The four seeded roles survive with the owner counted against Super Admin. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Officer-Session: 656f5c85-e49a-4f1f-b9f3-042a04b4d043
The documentation, triaged
2026-08-13. A map of what is in here, what it is for, and what should happen to it. Made because there are 42 documents and 13,000 lines, and no way to tell from the filenames which describe the system as it is and which are a record of an afternoon in July.
How much I verified: the classifications below are from filenames, status lines, and greps for things that changed on 2026-08-13. Where I actually read the document or checked the code, it says so. The rest is a starting point for a conversation, not a verdict.
Living — these describe the system and must stay true
| doc | state |
|---|---|
working-on-officer.md |
updated 2026-08-13. Operational guide. |
secret-store.md |
updated 2026-08-13. Built; rotation still open. |
install-variants.md |
new. The branch tree, for discussion. |
http-secure-context-audit.md |
new. What breaks over plain http. |
install-container-testing.md |
new. First container pass and its findings. |
per-user-linux-accounts.md |
partly updated. OFFICER_OS_USERS is gone; check the rest. |
navigation-audit.md |
authoritative on routing. Unverified against tonight's route removals. |
workspace-panels.md + workspace-panel-todo.md |
the panel framework. 1,300 lines combined — likely the biggest cleanup here. |
agent-coordination.md |
the north star for panel work. |
deprovision-os-account.md |
implemented; the 'disabled' stage it may mention was deleted tonight. |
Stale — describe things that changed on 2026-08-13
Each of these references something that no longer exists. Not yet corrected.
sidecar-topology.md— "ecosystem.config.cjs is the source of truth". It is generated now, and holds six processes.sidecar-app-store.md— derives the catalogue fromfull − light. Those files are gone, andcatalogue.test.tswas rewritten.sidecar-bootstrapping.md— "20 PM2 entries, 18 sidecar dirs".

Historical — a record of a moment, and should stay one
Do not rewrite these to match today's code. They document how a decision was reached, and editing them destroys the reasoning. If they mislead, add a dated header pointing forward.

The opencode cluster — nine documents for one migration
opencode-fork-decision · -parity · -api-2-assessment · -phase0-review · -phase1-report ·
-phase1-review · -serve-migration-plan · -serve-path · -testing-checklist
The migration landed — opencode serve is in the sidecar, verified. So
opencode-serve-migration-plan.md saying "Nothing here is implemented" is false.
This is the clearest consolidation candidate in the whole directory: one document recording what was decided and what shipped, replacing nine that describe stages of getting there. I did not do it because it needs reading all nine, and deleting documents unread is not a thing to do at 4am.
The mobile-dav thread — three documents, one conversation
mobile-dav-provisioning · -feedback · -reply. A correspondence. Almost certainly one document.
Unclassified — I have not looked
design-language-interface · file-sync · jobs-unification · mobile-photo-sync-api ·

The plugin split, which affects most of the above
A core install is six processes. Everything else is a plugin, switched off tonight but present on disk. Most documents here were written when the estate was twenty processes and every one of them was simply "there", so they describe availability that no longer holds.
The useful rewrite is usually one line, not a rewrite: say whether the thing described is core or a plugin, and if a plugin, that it is not mounted on a fresh install.
