All verification complete. Final report:
**Phase 142 final verification pass — all green**
- **Verified implemented** (working tree matches design; app diff is exactly 2 lines of logic): `app/rag/overview.py` — `regenerate_overview` now orders the lite-model document list `created_at` desc, `(source, path)` tie-break (newest docs survive the cap); `app/rag/prompts.py` — `_KB_INTRO` rewritten to the honest intro (recency bias, "map not inventory", verify-with-`ls`/`grep`; "(generated at import time)" gone).
- **Completion criteria:**
1. Forced-cap outline leads with newest docs — ✅ E2E `test_kb_overview_freshness.py` test 1 (cap 300, digest from `zz_new/z.md`, no "old" tokens) + integration repro (cap 150 → `mydocs zz new 03 md zz new 03`)
2. New honest intro served in `<knowledge_base>` — ✅ unit pin (verbatim) + E2E test 2 (`build_kb_section` surface, tag/cap byte-stable)
3. Gates — ✅ `uv run pytest --cov=app --cov-report=term-missing`: **3359 passed**, `app/` TOTAL **99%** (>90%); `uv run pytest tests/e2e/test_kb_overview_freshness.py -v --no-cov`: **3 passed** in isolation; `uv run pytest tests/e2e/test_kb_overview.py -v --no-cov`: **4 passed** in isolation; `uv run ruff check . && uv run pyright`: **clean, 0 errors**
4. No behavior change in completed phases — ✅ cap env knob, change-gated sync trigger, `build_kb_section` cap/marker, deflect path all byte-identical (pinned pins pass in the 3359)
- **Documentation:** README.md reviewed in full (every `.env.example` var documented with matching defaults, all endpoints/routes verified against `app/api/`, Quick Start/deploy/troubleshooting claims verified) and AGENTS.md re-reviewed (rules + quick reference accurate) — **verified consistent, no changes needed**.
- **Decisions:** none required — no defects found; no live-infra changes (only the already-running local `db` container was used by tests).
- **Next pending phase:** `.agents/phases/todo/143_mobile_keyboard_after_answer`.
**Phase 118 final verification pass — complete.** All criteria verified; 4 pre-existing defects found and fixed.
- **Verified:** summary-seed wiring (`select_suggested` top-5 no-floor → summary blocks, no full text in HIGH prompt), all-doc markdown summaries + NULL backfill (`summary_backfilled`, no `sources_meta` bump), `read` adds full text with `read_docs`-only dedupe, `done.sources` = suggested+read / durable record = suggested+related+read + `suggested=N` log line (seen live in E2E), byte-locked PERSONA/LOW/TOOLS_SECTION, battery gate PASS recorded in `TOOL_CALLING_TESTING.md` §10 (turbo 2026-09-16: 1/2/4 GREEN, cond-3 reported 9/10 per A7, contract 21/21, caps 0).
- **Defects fixed (all pre-existing, none phase-118):** ① `ChatMessage` schema missing the phase-113 `related` key → `extra="forbid"` 422'd every done-time auto-save of grounded turns with a related tier, leaving `message_count=1` (root cause of `test_share_chat` 3F; browser-level instrumentation proved the PUT 422) — added the field + unit/integration pins; ② `test_theme_semantic_completion` pins stale vs phase-117 debox (border/chip removed) — re-targeted to assert border/chip *absence*; ③ `test_header_consistency` `<26`px pin red on 26.125px native date-input line — bound relaxed to `<34` (wrap-detection intent kept); ④ `test_navbar_refresh` bor.chat.v1 key set updated for `related`.
- **Test/lint/coverage:** `uv run pytest --cov=app --cov-report=term-missing` → **2506 passed, app/ 99%** (>90%); `uv run ruff check . && uv run pyright` → clean, 0 errors.
- **E2E:** new story suite in isolation → **2 passed**; full 103-suite matrix sweep (each isolated) → **all 103 green** after the fixes; `test_share_chat` 4 passed, `test_theme_semantic_completion` 8 passed, `test_header_consistency` 3 passed, `test_navbar_refresh` 7 passed.
- **Deviations:** none from LOCKED decisions. Note: orphaned diagnostic uvicorn processes briefly made E2E sessions exercise stale code — killed and re-verified; a sweep-regenerated tracked screenshot was restored. No commits made (harness commits).
- **Completion criteria:** all 7 ✅ (commit/phase-move is the harness's step).
- **Next pending phase:** none — `todo/` holds only this phase's overview pending the harness move.
