# Documentation Audit Report

**Date**: 2026-07-03 **Project**: AI OS **Audit Mode**: Full Audit Mode for access-default documentation override after completed Phase 40

## Summary

| Category        | Required           | Found | Status |
| --------------- | ------------------ | ----- | ------ |
| Root files      | 3                  | 3     | PASS   |
| /docs/ files    | 8                  | 8+    | PASS   |
| ADRs            | Template plus ADRs | 3     | PASS   |
| Package READMEs | N/A (not monorepo) | N/A   | N/A    |

## Access Default Update

This pass updated active documentation so local AI OS operator goals default to full local access, write access, and edit access. Manual admin gates, legacy limited-access route names, metadata-only scanners, unsupported preflights, and demo states are now documented as current implementation constraints, explicit exceptions, or gaps instead of desired defaults.

Proper delivery is now recorded in the root guidance, README, PRD, architecture, local API notes, agent docs, local-agent contract, voice and Intelligence docs, spec-system memory, and the all-access implementation handoff: a shipped feature must prove real execution, visible results, recovery paths, and focused tests.

Preserved exceptions: public demo safety, third-party source compliance, secret/privacy boundaries, missing credentials, offline dependencies, and external proof limits.

| Voice and Intelligence docs | `docs/local-voice-setup.md` and `docs/intelligence-view.md` record Session 08 broker ownership, Session 09 portal ownership, environment-only provider keys, empty launch acceptance, browser provider-config rejection, and live-provider proof caveats. |
| Security docs               | `.spec_system/SECURITY-COMPLIANCE.md` records Phase 40 as clean with 0 open findings, no dependency additions, and explicit proof limits for live voice, MoA save, and production infra checks.                                                           |
| Spec-system closeout        | `.spec_system/state.json` and the analyzer mark Phase 40 complete and Phase 41 active, with Session 01 complete and Session 02 next. `.spec_system/archive/phases/phase_40/` contains archived Phase 40 PRD/session stubs.                                |

## Files Removed

* None.

## Files Verified As Current

* `README.md` - Current for quick start, version, current platform, Hermes Agent surface, Trend Finder/AI Rogue boundaries, local privacy boundaries, and documentation links.
* `CONTRIBUTING.md` - Present for branch, commit, PR, and local safety guidance.
* `LICENSE` - Present for current legal and attribution posture.
* `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` - Current after endpoint inventory update for high-level structure, data flow, local control plane, Hermes bridge owners, extension architecture, public demo boundary, and testing infrastructure.
* `docs/onboarding.md` - Present for onboarding, local setup, and platform notes; Phase 40 did not require new onboarding steps beyond linked environment and voice docs.
* `docs/development.md` - Current for Bun 1.3.14, setup modes, scripts, local control-plane overview, Hermes admin behavior, scheduler commands, and focused validation guidance.
* `docs/environments.md` - Current for public/private env variable classification, Hermes and voice environment-only keys, OpenClaw, Codex, Trend Finder, AI runtime, Dream, and deployment prerequisites.
* `docs/deployment.md` - Current for Worker build/deploy, Pages public demo, CI/CD workflows, release, rollback, and production proof gaps.
* `docs/api/README_api.md` - Current for local API and bridge route notes, including Phase 40 Hermes and voice contracts.

* `docs/intelligence-view.md` - Current for Hermes Intelligence ownership, voice behavior, current Hermes write-gate constraint, public demo boundary, and live-provider caveat.
* `docs/phase-40-port-closeout.md` - Current for shipped behavior, intentional non-ports, package metadata, gitignore, graph seed preservation, and validation evidence.
* `docs/runbooks/incident-response.md` - Present for incident-response runbook coverage.
* `docs/runbooks/ai-os-dream.md` - Present for Dream scheduler behavior and private-output boundaries; Phase 40 did not ship Dream engine-selection claims.
* `docs/adr/0000-template.md` and accepted ADRs - Present.
* `docs/CHANGELOG.md` - Present for release history; Phase 40 closeout details live in the phase closeout doc and spec artifacts.

## Remaining Documentation Gaps

* No Phase 40 user-facing repository documentation gaps remain from this pass.
* No external product, platform, legal, or operational decision is needed to keep current Phase 40 documentation accurate.
* Product implementation still needs the planned all-access sessions in `.spec_system/PRD/phase_41/` before docs can claim every Hermes, Knowledge Graph, Voice, Intelligence, OpenClaw, and Claude Code path is write-ready by default in running code.

## Known Non-Blocking Context

* Live Realtime voice proof, local-admin MoA save success, production Worker health, Cloudflare WAF ruleset verification, and GitHub Actions deploy execution remain environment-limited proof items, not documentation gaps. Current docs identify those caveats instead of claiming unverified success.
* Legacy nested `README.md` paths remain in generated, public asset, demo, imported example, and external cache scopes. This phase-focused run did not rename them because active and historical links still target those document maps, and broad renaming is outside the Phase 40 closeout scope.
* The worktree had pre-existing changes in `.spec_system/CONSIDERATIONS.md`, `.spec_system/SECURITY-COMPLIANCE.md`, and `.spec_system/audit/` before this documents command; this audit did not revert or edit those unrelated user changes.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://ai-os-and-trend-finder.gitbook.io/ai-os-and-trend-finder-docs/.spec_system/docs-audit.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
