Update the reviewer skill so its procedure matches how this repo actually works:
- Route review reports to docs/reviews/ and mark them non-canonical, resolving the conflict where reports landed in the same docs/ tree they resolve findings against.
- Pin verification commands to uv (uv run ruff check / ty check / pytest -m 'not external').
- Record the pytest contract: strict markers, strict asyncio mode, and the never-awaited-coroutine warning promoted to an error.
- Convert the deterministic checks to a table with an Enforced by column; three checks are unenforced and one only partial, which are now findings by construction.
- Add a consequence-based severity rubric and a Direction column for bidirectional drift.
- Escalate test-suite concerns to test-effectiveness-auditor.
Also fix tests/test_db.py, which was missing 'from sqlalchemy import text' while using it in 14 places. Three tests were failing with NameError. Wrapped the pre-existing long lines in the same file so it lints clean.
Document the deliberate nicegui==3.13.0 pin in pyproject.toml, a new runbook dependency upgrade policy, and the reviewer skill, so the pin is not flagged as a defect or widened as incidental cleanup.

Adds .github/workflows/quality-gate.yml, running the gate on push and pull
request. CI invokes `pre-commit run --all-files` rather than restating the
`ruff check` and `ty check` commands, so the checks keep a single definition
in .pre-commit-config.yaml and local and CI cannot drift (plan task 2).
The workflow writes a .env file rather than exporting an environment
variable. The two are not equivalent here: Settings reads the .env file,
while the external-test skip guard reads os.getenv, so an exported variable
un-skips the external tests and sends them to the network. Measured in CI:
no .env gave 115 failures and 18 errors, an exported dummy key gave 3
failures, and a written .env file reproduced the local baseline exactly.
Negative-tested on a scratch branch: a deliberate lint error failed the run
at `ruff check` with exactly the planted errors, confirming the gate blocks
rather than merely reporting (plan task 4). The subsequent clean run passed
ruff and ty and reported 295 passed, 4 skipped, matching local and
confirming the four credential-gated tests skip cleanly (plan task 3).
That first green run caught a real platform-dependent defect. PromptStore
rejected non-direct-child names via `Path(name).name != name`, which is
platform-dependent: on POSIX a backslash is an ordinary filename character,
so "nested\prompt.md" passed the guard and failed later as NOT_FOUND rather
than VALIDATION. Windows cannot reproduce it. No traversal was possible,
since the path.parent != root check still held, so the impact was a wrong
error category and a red gate. Both separators are now rejected explicitly,
matching the ^[^/\\]+$ pattern config.PromptFilename already used.
Also exports docs/ver4.7/review_log_v4_7.md, the working record kept across
all six phases: 50 entries, 1 still open. The open entry is a pre-existing
/ui redirect defect found during the Phase 3 UI walk and deliberately left
unfixed as outside the V4.7 scope boundary.

Decompose SourceService along the aggregate boundary and then correct the
instruction file that caused it to grow, in that order. The refactor is the
empirical test of the rule.
services/evidence.py (new)
EvidenceService owns ExecutionAttempt: read_latest_execution_attempt,
list_execution_attempts, promote_machine_attempt, build_evidence_export,
plus the LatestExecutionAttempt projection. Moved verbatim from sources.py.
services/errors.py (new)
The five-class error hierarchy (PromptLoadError, TranscriptionError,
TranscriptionNotFoundError, SourceDeleteBlockedError,
CandidatePromotionError) moved out of sources.py. evidence.py needs
TranscriptionNotFoundError, and test_service_boundaries.py correctly
rejected the sibling import. errors.py defines no *Service class, so it is
a legal shared home. This was the boundary test doing its job, not an
obstacle to route around.
sources.py 1,389 -> 885 lines (1,063 after Phase 2).
services/__init__.py
ServiceBundle and from_session_factory register evidence. Note that
field-by-field ServiceBundle construction silently binds services to the
process-global session factory via default_factory; from_session_factory is
the only safe constructor. Two test bundles were fixed for this.
.github/instructions/services.instructions.md
Rewritten to describe the boundaries the decomposition actually produced,
per plan Phase 3 task 7 and review log [59].
- "1 service class per data model" -> one service class per aggregate.
The table-shaped rule is the measured cause of sources.py reaching
1,389 lines; DocumentType has no lifecycle without Document.
- New Model Ownership section. Junctions are owned by their lifecycle
owner, the service that creates and deletes the rows: document_person
to PeopleService (sole writer, measured), job_source to SourceService.
Two carve-outs are stated rather than left as silent violations:
cascade deletion when a service deletes its own aggregate root, and
status transitions that create and delete nothing (cancel_job,
resubmit_failed_sources), which are Job lifecycle events on the work
queue. EvidenceService.promote_machine_attempt's two-field write to
Source is named and scoped.
- Mandatory CRUD softened to intent. It was already false: five modules
define no service class, EvidenceService has no create/delete because
ExecutionAttempt is append-only, RegistryService uses <op>_entry.
- Separated reading across models via eager loads from the owning root,
which is allowed, from importing another service, which is not. The old
line 13 and lines 75-77 read as contradictory.
- Typo: picutre.
No code was moved to satisfy the rule.
tests/test_service_boundaries.py
Docstring no longer cites the instruction file by line number; that anchor
would desynchronise silently. errors.py added to the neutral-module list.
Verified: 292 passed, 4 skipped, 0 ruff, 0 ty. All 25 /ui/* routes walked
against the live app; 24x 200. /ui/documents/{id}/sources 404s via a 307 that
drops the /ui prefix, confirmed pre-existing (last touched in 6a3ee26) and
left alone as out of scope.

Pure remediation; no behavior change. Every item traces to a finding in
docs/architecture_code_review_2026-08-17.md.
Deletions
- Delete app_state.py, which had zero importers and whose get_session_factory
raised TypeError at runtime [HIGH-01].
- Delete services/transcription.py and point build_prompt_execution imports at
services/sources.py; drop the store.py compatibility aliases [MED-05].
- Delete ServiceBase.queue and its unparameterized asyncio.Queue [MED-07].
- Delete db/operations.get_next_queued_job, a divergent duplicate [CRIT-01].
- Drop the discarded load_docs parameter from list_jobs [LOW-03].
Config
- Delete worker_retry_backoff_seconds; no backoff behavior existed anywhere, so
wiring it would have been a new feature [MED-02].
- Wire sqlite_check_same_thread through get_engine. The engine hardcoded the
setting's own default, so this preserves behavior exactly [MED-02].
- Replace DATABASE_URL in docker-compose.yml with the nested DATABASE__DRIVER /
DATABASE__PATH names. Settings uses env_nested_delimiter with extra="ignore",
so DATABASE_URL was silently discarded [MED-10].
UI
- Move the 23KB inline VIBESCRIBE_LOGO_SVG to ui/static/vibescribe_logo.svg and
load it through a cached read_svg sibling of read_css [MED-09].
- Route the portrait upload failure through error_presenter.show_error [LOW-07].
- Cancel the job detail auto-refresh timer instead of only deactivating it, and
name its interval constant [LOW-06].
Worker
- Make WorkerNotifier runtime_checkable and validate the resolved object in
resolve_worker_notifier, which previously returned any non-None attribute
unchecked [LOW-04].
Docs and lint
- Fix two stale paths in services.instructions.md, one of which pointed at the
module deleted here [LOW-02].
- ruff check --fix to zero [LOW-01].
Verified: 264 passed, 4 skipped; ruff check clean.
