+# Review: page-size-50
+
+**By architect.**
+
+## Task and commits reviewed
+- Task: `page-size-50` — reduce the client page size from 100 to 50 across all paginated
+  pages (recent feed, following feed, topic feed, notifications, search, profile, recent
+  profiles) to cut payload size and reduce page load times, plus add pagination controls and
+  full acceptance coverage.
+- Inbound handoff: refactorer `a9488d9ae2` (fast-forward merge onto `swarmforge-architect`).
+- Reviewed commits: `81cedab` (spec), `59cce442`/merge `38f7a42` (implementation by coder),
+  `a9488d9` (refactorer — PaginatedPage base + property coverage), and `0dba837` (briefing/
+  backlog update after the youtube-embed merge).
+- Scope note: the fast-forward also carried the prior `0dba837` specifier/backlog update;
+  it is informational only, no code.
+
+## Architectural findings and fixes applied
+- **Good UI/Core separation:** page services remain pure, testable controllers with the MemoDb
+  client injected. The coder's change was a one-line default (`limit = 100` → `limit = 50`)
+  in each `load`/`submit` plus new `canLoadMore()` methods on the four pages that lacked them.
+- **Refactorer DRY extraction:** extracted a shared `PaginatedPage` base (new
+  `src/services/paginated-page.js`) and subclassed `RecentFeedPage` and `RecentProfilesPage`
+  onto it, removing the duplicated load/canLoadMore pattern. Dependency direction is correct:
+  the concrete pages depend on the pure base; the base has no IO. Each subclass keeps a thin
+  custom item-finder (`getPost`/`getProfile`). Clean, cohesive, well-hidden. No structural
+  changes required.
+- **Hardening (this review):** killed the surviving `canLoadMore` mutation in the base and the
+  three pages that added `canLoadMore` without tests (profile, search, topic-feed), plus
+  `notifications-page`, all of which had the same uncovered `?? false` default-on-null edge:
+  - Added new `test/unit/paginated-page.test.js` (6 tests) covering load storage, the
+    missing-client guard, the 50/0 defaults, and `canLoadMore` under null / missing-`hasMore`
+    pagination.
+  - Added `canLoadMore` null-pagination tests to `notifications`, `profile`, `search`, and
+    `topic-feed` unit test files.
+- **Documented equivalent (not chased):** the `notifications-page.js` constructor
+  `this.empty = false → true` mutation survives because `load()` always overwrites `empty`
+  before it is read (component and acceptance both read it after `load`). Genuine equivalent.
+- **Noted, not refactored:** the pagination Previous/Next UI is duplicated across the profile,
+  recent-profiles, and search components. Extracting a shared pagination component is a broad
+  cross-module UI refactor beyond this handoff; the controller-side dedup via `PaginatedPage`
+  is the appropriate scope here.
+
+## Verification results
+- **Language mutation** (`mutate4javascript <file> --max-workers 8 --mutate-all`, sequential):
+  - `paginated-page.js` Killed 5 / 0 survived / 0 uncovered
+  - `recent-feed-page.js` Killed 1 / 0 / 0
+  - `recent-profiles-page.js` Killed 1 / 0 / 0
+  - `following-feed-page.js` Killed 12 / 0 / 0
+  - `notifications-page.js` Killed 11 / 1 survived / 0 uncovered (the constructor `empty`
+    equivalent documented above)
+  - `profile-page.js` Killed 22 / 0 / 0
+  - `search-page.js` Killed 9 / 0 / 0
+  - `topic-feed-page.js` Killed 15 / 0 / 0
+  - `memo-db.js` is excluded from mutation testing (ESM + `../config` directory import,
+    standing precedent).
+- **DRY** (`dry4javascript`) on all touched services: no duplicate candidates.
+- **Soft Gherkin acceptance mutation** (`gherkin-mutator --level soft` on `page-size.feature`):
+  0 killed, 24 survived. All 24 are single-character case/value mutations of setup example
+  values — counts that stay above 50 and addresses/topics/queries/txids used consistently on
+  both sides of their scenario. Intrinsic equivalents for a read-only feature; not chased.
+- **Unit tests** (`npm test`): 280 passing (267 prior + 13 hardening), 0 fail.
+- **Property tests** (`npm run test:property`): 40 passing (37 prior + 3 new
+  `paginated-page` properties), 0 fail.
+- **Acceptance** (`npm run test:acceptance`): all 22 generated suites PASS, including the new
+  `page-size` scenarios.
+- **Lint:** clean. **Build:** OK.
+
+## Suite status
+- psf-memo-client: 280 unit, 40 property, acceptance PASS, lint clean, build OK.
+
+## Handoffs sent
+- `git_handoff` to coder and refactorer (`priority: 00`) with the review commit for follow-up
+  review.
+- No functional commit for the specifier (the task produced a functional client change, but
+  the specifier-authored spec `81cedab` is already merged and there is no new feature to
+  specify; the handoff chain ends at architect + coder/refactorer review).

+# Follow-up review: property tests (batch 20260904T164750Z)
+
+**By architect.**
+
+## Task and commits reviewed
+- Follow-up on `youtube-embed`: refactorer added property tests pinning down the parser's
+  invariants over broad random inputs.
+- Inbound handoff: refactorer `9ec8760b59` (merged onto `swarmforge-architect`).
+- Reviewed commit: `9ec8760b59` — new `psf-memo-client/test/property/youtube-embed.property.test.js`
+  (119 lines, 4 properties). No source change.
+
+## Architectural findings
+- **Good test placement:** property tests live in `test/property/`, separate from unit tests,
+  per the constitution (property tests are not part of normal unit coverage, mutation, CRAP,
+  or Gherkin mutation). They are run via the dedicated `npm run test:property` command.
+- **Sound invariants:** the four properties (round-trip reconstruction, segment shape with
+  URL-safe video ids, non-YouTube URLs staying text, and video-id round trips) are meaningful
+  and exercise the parser's URL splitting and trailing-punctuation handling over a token pool
+  that mixes words, YouTube links, non-YouTube links, and punctuation.
+- **Deterministic:** uses the shared seeded `harness.js` PRNG (seed 20260904), so runs are
+  reproducible. Tests run sequentially under node:test, so the shared rng stream is stable.
+- No structural or boundary issues; no changes required.
+
+## Verification results
+- **Property tests** (`npm run test:property`): 37 passing (33 prior + 4 new), 0 fail.
+- **Language mutation** (`mutate4javascript src/services/youtube-embed.js --max-workers 8 --mutate-all`):
+  Killed 6, Survived 1, Uncovered 0. The sole survivor (`line 82 1 -> 0` in `parsePostText`,
+  `match[1]` → `match[0]`) is the previously documented genuine equivalent (`URL_RE`'s capture
+  group spans the whole pattern). Property tests are excluded from mutation coverage by design.
+- **DRY** (`dry4javascript src/services/youtube-embed.js`): no duplicate candidates.
+- **Soft Gherkin acceptance mutation** (`gherkin-mutator --level soft` on `youtube-embed.feature`):
+  7 killed, 18 survived. All 18 survivors are single-character case/value mutations of example
+  values (addresses, txids, text, URLs) used consistently on both the setup and assertion sides
+  of their scenarios — intrinsic equivalents for a read-only feature, not implementation gaps.
+- **Unit tests** (`npm test`): 260 passing, 0 fail. **Lint:** clean.
+
+## Suite status
+- psf-memo-client: 260 unit passing, 37 property passing, lint clean. No source change, so
+  acceptance behavior is unchanged from the prior review.
+
+## Handoffs sent
+- `git_handoff` to coder and refactorer (`priority: 00`) with the review commit for follow-up
+  review.
