A server died on `Cannot find module '../../../../plugins/music/db/schema'` before a line of its own code ran. The pull that broke it was the one untracking `plugins/` — git deleted those directories from the working tree, and the gitignored `plugin-schemas.gen.ts` still named them. The barrel being wrong is NORMAL. It is written by `db:push` and by installing a plugin, and nothing rewrites it when a directory goes away by other means: a pull, `git clean -xfd`, `rm`. It describes a machine, not the project, which is why it is gitignored in the first place. The defect was not the stale file. It was that a file allowed to be wrong sat in the import graph of the process that must always start — via `db.ts` → `schema.ts` → the barrel. An import graph is resolved before `main`, so this was not catchable, loggable or survivable. Everywhere else the plugin system already holds the line: `refreshPluginMounts` isolates a bad plugin, `discoverPlugins` reports a broken manifest instead of throwing. This was the one remaining path that could take the whole server down, and it took it down. So the two consumers get their own entry points. `schema.ts` keeps the core tables and is what the runtime imports. `drizzle-schema.ts` re-exports it, adds the generated barrel, and is read only by drizzle-kit — which regenerates the barrel before every run and can afford to fail loudly on a genuinely broken plugin. `drizzle.config.ts` points at the new one. Verified by reproducing it: with the barrel naming a plugin directory that does not exist, importing the server's db module now succeeds while importing `drizzle-schema.ts` still fails with that exact error — so the runtime is immune and drizzle-kit's strictness is intact. First attempt at that test was worthless, since I "poisoned" the barrel with a path that existed here; redone with an absent one. `bun db:gen` then loaded the new entry and emitted both core and plugin tables (music_*, offscale_servers), which is what proves `db:push` still works. Pulling this is enough to boot a server in that state — the stale barrel stops being loaded rather than needing to be repaired. tsgo clean, frontend builds, 865 pass / 7 fail unchanged.

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. |

new. The branch tree, for discussion. |
http-secure-context-audit.md |

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. |

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

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.
