## Overview

This document tracks the comprehensive documentation overhaul needed to bring the public repository in sync with the actual system state. The README was last updated during Phase 8; we are now at Phase 12 COMPLETE.

## Gap Analysis

| Area | README Says | Reality |
|------|-------------|---------|
| Phase | Phase 8 In Progress | Phase 12 COMPLETE |
| Progress | 23% complete | 100% complete (295/295 tests) |
| Architecture | Basic tiered agents | Full multi-agent pipeline with ALPHA/BETA/GAMMA |
| UI | Not mentioned | Full orchestration dashboard with WebSocket |
| Vault | Basic mention | Per-pipeline token lifecycle with observability revocation |
| DragonflyDB | "state coordination" | Full observability, consensus tracking, metrics |
| Consensus | Not mentioned | Consensus failure handling with fallback options |
| Bug Tracking | Not mentioned | Full bug watcher with CLI |

## Execution Checklist

### 1. Memory Reconstruction
- [x] Load latest checkpoint (ckpt-20260124-232253-c250be8e)
- [x] STATUS sweep completed (65 directories, all complete)
