Two independent copies of the same law, and each page cited its own numbers. The finish rule —
stop when independent sources agree, when the retrieval budget is spent, or when every claim is
met; report gaps, never invent a source — stood in full in `agentic-search-best-practices.md`
(with the loop caps: 20 steps, re-plan every 4) and again in `research-effectiveness.md` without
them. The operational page owns it; the measurement page keeps the pointer and the one thing
that is its business, which is that unbounded loops are why "infinite re-search" is a named
failure mode.
`tools/gitea/index.md` was a second copy of its own directory: an architecture table, a
management command table, a data-persistence path table and a boot-persistence paragraph, every
one of them a subset of `architecture.md`, `management.md` and `data-persistence.md` — verified
line by line before cutting, including the two facts that looked unique to the index (the
`dns_enabled: false` default network, the `/opt/gitea` leftover) and turn out to be owned
upstream with more detail. The index now answers "which page owns my question" and gives three
one-line orientation facts. Gitea's live version was re-read while I was in there: still 1.27.3.

`[[page|Label]]` is Obsidian syntax, not OKF. `kb-lint` resolves it Obsidian-style — by
filename, anywhere in the bundle — so it has never tripped the link gate, while every other
consumer of the bundle (an OKF renderer, a Gitea wiki export, `grep` for reachability) sees
bracketed text where a link should be. That is how two generated pages ended up with no
inbound link at all and nobody noticed: the my-first link census of the bundle reported them
as orphans because their only inbound edges were wikilinks.
Mechanical conversion, 52 links across 17 pages, each resolved against the same page set
`kb-lint` uses: an explicit `|Label` is kept verbatim, an unlabelled link takes the target's
frontmatter `title`. Targets are emitted bundle-absolute (`/tools/niri/tips.md`), the form
the spec recommends and the form 99 existing links in this bundle already use.
Two links were `[[index]]`, which resolves by filename to 21 pages — the ambiguity that
filename-resolution invites. Both meant their own directory's index, so both are now written
out in full: `/tools/gitea/index.md`, `/tools/niri/index.md`.
The linter still tolerates wikilinks; whether it should reject them outright is an open
question on #64, because that would replace the two tests pinning today's tolerance.

Uncommitted machine/session edits (live config, models, docs drift) were
blocking the merge of origin/main. Committed as-is to preserve them; the
merge that follows resolves overlapping prose files toward upstream
canonical, with local variants recoverable from this commit. Pre-merge
copies also in .AGENTTRASH/pre-merge-2026-10-18/.
New tools/gitea/client-access.md: the credential file (~/.config/secrets/gitea,
0600) behind a global 'store --file' helper, the git 2.56 credential-store trap
(the key=value block shape parses to an empty get; the file must be one
http://user:token@host:port URL per line), the GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0
verification loop, the lfs.locksverify key that silences the URL echo, and the
rotation procedure. Cross-linked from the gitea index and management pages.
Both workstation remotes are now bare URLs; the token lives in one file.
Copy of the legacy ~/.pi/agent/docs tree rebuilt as the command-center
knowledge base: concept files promoted to path identity, index listings
stripped of frontmatter, all wikilinks/relative links resolved, every
checkable claim verified against the live fleet (Dankserver = Ryzen 7
7700X + RTX 3090; Strix Halo is Dankclaw), unverifiable claims tagged.
kb-lint exits 0.
