+# Architectural Review Summary — new-post-page
+
+## Task and commits reviewed
+- Task: `new-post-page`
+- Reviewed the merged branch ending at `d57975c466` (refactorer), which carried:
+  - `9385034`/`4fa92d1` — specifier New Post Page Gherkin spec (`specs/memo-new.feature`)
+  - `05f393c` — coder implementation (`src/services/new-post.js`, page wiring)
+  - `d57975c` — refactorer property tests for memo post / new post invariants
+- Merged into `swarmforge-architect` (fast-forward) and processed as a batch.
+
+## Architectural findings and fixes applied
+Reviewed UI/Core separation, dependency rule, information hiding/encapsulation, and
+local code quality.
+
+1. **Testable controller behind adapters (good).** `src/services/new-post.js` is a
+   testable controller wrapping `memo-post.js`; it holds draft input, the remaining-
+   character counter, typed validation/length errors, and feed navigation. `memoPost`
+   and `navigate` are injected so the module stays free of UI/IO concerns. Dependency
+   direction is inward.
+2. **Unified acceptance handlers (good).** `acceptance/lib/handlers.js` now drives both
+   `post-memo.feature` and `memo-new.feature` through one `world.newPage`, reusing the
+   shared Memo post behavior. Wording differences are normalized via shared regex
+   alternations; no step logic is duplicated.
+3. **Property tests (good).** `test/property/{harness,memo-post.property.test}.js`
+   assert seeded invariants (validation classification across the length boundary,
+   counter conservation `remaining === MAX - len`, `setInput` round-trip, menu-link
+   idempotence). Kept separate from unit tests as the architecture requires.
+4. **Fix applied — posting-state coverage.** The language mutation tool surfaced 4
+   survivors in `new-post.js`, all around the `posting` state flag (initial value and
+   its true/false transitions in `submit`). Added unit coverage asserting the page
+   starts idle, is `posting=true` while a submit is in flight (via a deferred wallet),
+   and returns to `posting=false` on success and on error. This killed all 4 survivors.
+
+## Verification results
+- **Unit (`node --test`):** 18/18 pass (added 2 posting-state tests).
+- **Property (`npm run test:property`):** 6/6 pass.
+- **Acceptance (normal):** both `memo-new` and `post-memo` generated suites pass.
+- **Mutation (`mutate4javascript`, `--max-workers 8`):**
+  - `memo-post.js`: differential reuse (module unchanged since its 7/7 kill).
+  - `new-post.js`: after coverage fix, **killed 11 / survived 0 / uncovered 0**
+    (was 4 survivors before the fix).
+- **DRY (`dry4javascript src`):** no duplicate candidates.
+- **Gherkin acceptance mutation (soft):**
+  - `memo-new.feature`: 11 executed — **5 killed, 6 survived**, 0 errors.
+    - Killed: empty-memo boundary; character-counter `count` example values (217/212/0)
+      — proving those values are connected to behavior.
+    - Survived (documented equivalents): message-content dithers (4) plus case/length-
+      neutral dithers in the counter scenario — message text is opaque data; only length
+      affects the counter, so these don't change observable behavior.
+  - `post-memo.feature`: empty-memo scenario reused as killed; remaining 5 executed are
+    the same documented message-content equivalents.
+- Property tests: run separately via `npm run test:property`.
+
+## Suite status
+- Unit + property + acceptance all pass; source-level mutation fully kills both testable
+  core modules. Gherkin acceptance mutation survivors are documented equivalents.
+
+## Handoffs sent
+- `git_handoff` → coder, refactorer (priority `00`, task `new-post-page`), to review the
+  architect commit (posting-state coverage + tool manifests).
+
+By architect.

+# Architectural Review Summary — post-memo
+
+## Task and commits reviewed
+- Task: `post-memo`
+- Reviewed the merged branch ending at `8e2693ad08` (refactorer), which carried:
+  - `d071b21`/`c9556be` — specifier Post-a-Memo Gherkin spec + feature backlog
+  - `514298b` — coder implementation with acceptance pipeline
+  - `64a7f78` — refactorer merge of coder work
+  - `8e2693a` — refactorer memo-post complexity reduction
+- Merged into `swarmforge-architect` (fast-forward) and processed as a batch.
+
+## Architectural findings and fixes applied
+Reviewed UI/Core separation, dependency rule, information hiding/encapsulation, and
+local code quality.
+
+1. **Testable core behind small adapters (good).** `src/services/memo-post.js` is a
+   testable module free of UI/IO concerns. It injects `wallet` and `feed` adapters
+   (minimal-slp-wallet surface + feed reflection), so OP_RETURN/broadcast and UI
+   concerns stay outside the core. Environmentally unsuitable I/O is confined to
+   adapter boundaries. Dependency direction is inward.
+2. **Acceptance pipeline separation (good).** `acceptance/lib/{generate,runtime,handlers}`
+   are the project-specific components the APS spec prescribes. The feature is parsed
+   by the **APS-supplied Babashka `gherkin-parser`** (procured fresh from
+   github.com/unclebob/Acceptance-Pipeline-Specification on first use), not
+   reimplemented. `handlers.js` drives real core behavior through fake wallet/feed
+   adapters so the run is deterministic and offline.
+3. **Information hiding (good).** memo-post hides the Memo `0x6d02` prefix and
+   broadcast mechanics; handlers only assert observable outcomes (broadcast prefix,
+   feed reflection, empty/length rejection).
+4. **Fix applied — runner adapter added.** Built the project-specific persistent
+   runner adapter required by `gherkin-mutator` at
+   `acceptance/lib/runner-worker.js` (newline-delimited JSON protocol; evaluates each
+   mutated feature IR through the same runtime/handlers and reports
+   `test_failure|test_success|infrastructure_error`).
+5. **Manifests updated by tools (permitted).** The language mutation tool embedded
+   its differential footer manifest in `src/services/memo-post.js`; the APS mutator
+   wrote the acceptance-mutation scenario manifest into `specs/post-memo.feature`.
+   Both are normal tool output and were left for the tooling, not hand-edited.
+
+## Verification results
+- **Unit (`node --test`):** 7/7 pass (`memo-post.test.js`).
+- **Acceptance (normal):** all 6 scenario executions pass.
+- **Mutation (`mutate4javascript` differential, `--max-workers 8`):**
+  `memo-post.js` — **killed 7, survived 0, uncovered 0**. Full kill.
+- **DRY (`dry4javascript src`):** no duplicate candidates.
+- **Gherkin acceptance mutation (soft):** 6 discovered; **1 killed**, **5 survived**,
+  0 errors.
+  - Killed: the empty-memo boundary — dithering the `"  "` example makes the
+    validation branch fail the scenario, confirming the empty-rejection guardrail is
+    connected to the example data.
+  - Survived (documented equivalents): message-content dithers in the valid-memo
+    scenario and the over-long scenarios. The tests treat the message as opaque data
+    and assert the *same* (mutated) text is composed and reflected, so changing one
+    character leaves the exercised branch identical. These are acceptable equivalent
+    survivors, not missing guardrails.
+- **Property tests:** none present in this project.
+
+## Suite status
+- Unit + acceptance suites pass; mutation fully kills source-level mutants for the
+  testable core. Gherkin acceptance mutation has 5 documented-equivalent survivors.
+
+## Handoffs sent
+- `git_handoff` → coder, refactorer (priority `00`, task `post-memo`), to review the
+  architectural commit (runner adapter + tool manifests).
+
+By architect.

+# Architectural Review Summary — reduce-dry-duplication
+
+## Task and commits reviewed
+- Task: `reduce-dry-duplication`
+- Source commit merged and reviewed: `eed9d70f6f` (`Reduce DRY duplication in services and components`, from refactorer)
+- Reviewed as a batch via `ready_for_next.sh`; merged into `swarmforge-architect` as a fast-forward and processed.
+
+## Architectural findings and fixes applied
+Reviewed the refactorer's DRY reduction for UI/Core separation, dependency rule,
+information hiding/encapsulation, and local code quality.
+
+Findings (mostly sound, two notes):
+1. **MemoDb service consolidation** (`src/services/memo-db.js`) — `getRecentProfiles`/
+   `getRecentPosts` → `getRecent`, and `getProfile`/`getProfilePic`/`getName` →
+   `getLevelResource`. Preserves error semantics (recent → always throws; level → null
+   on 404). Good cohesion, HTTP details stay in the service. **No change needed.**
+2. **AppUtil `pasteFromClipboard`** (`src/util/index.js`) — centralizes clipboard-paste
+   into the shared utility; components no longer duplicate clipboard reading. Good
+   information hiding. **No change needed.**
+3. **`PlaceholderView` extraction** — shared placeholder used by placeholder2/3.
+   Cohesive. **No change needed.**
+4. **`wallet-summary` blur toggle generalization** — `toggleBlur(field)` via dynamic
+   setter name reduces duplication. Functional and correct; the dynamic
+   `set${Capitalized}` construction is a mild readability tradeoff but acceptable to
+   preserve the DRY intent. **No change.**
+5. **Cross-feature dependency (fixed)** — `recent-profiles` imported the general-purpose
+   `truncateAddr`/`truncateTxid` from the feed-specific `post-feed/post-display`.
+   For cohesion and dependency direction, these pure string helpers belong in the
+   shared utility layer. **Applied fix:** moved `truncateAddr`/`truncateTxid` to
+   `src/util/index.js`; `post-display` now imports from util and re-exports them for
+   its existing consumers; `recent-profiles` imports directly from `src/util`.
+   This removes a sibling-feature → sibling-feature module coupling and keeps generic
+   display helpers in the shared utility.
+
+## Verification results
+- **Mutation** (`mutate4javascript --scan`): memo-db.js 4 sites, util/index.js 6 sites,
+  post-display.js 8 sites. No JS unit test suite exists in this project
+  (`npm test` → `echo 'no tests'`); there is no coverage harness, so all sites are
+  uncovered and no survivors can be killed by tests. JSX component files cannot be
+  parsed by the mutation tool (no `jsx` Babel plugin); they are UI adapters and are
+  outside the currently testable boundary.
+- **DRY** (`dry4javascript src`): **no duplicate candidates found** — the reduction
+  is effective and my fix introduced no duplication.
+- **Gherkin acceptance mutation (soft)**: not runnable — this project has no
+  `.feature` files, no acceptance pipeline, and no runner adapter.
+- Property tests: none present in this project.
+
+## Suite status
+- No JavaScript unit/acceptance suite exists (`npm test` echoes "no tests").
+- `bb.edn` test task covers the swarmforge helper scripts only (unrelated to this UI work).
+
+## Handoffs sent
+- `git_handoff` → coder, refactorer (priority `00`, task `reduce-dry-duplication`),
+  to review the architectural commit.
+
+By architect.
