**Phase 182 — final verification pass (all 8 tasks already complete; this was verification + docs + one defect fix).**
- Verified: `app/rag/verbatim.py` (locator grammar, `splitlines()` slice, line-boundary cap, `resolve_answer_blocks`), `SHOW_TEXT_TOOL` + `shown_texts`, `SHOW_TEXT_CLAUSE`, `done.answer_text` (9 fields, key dropped when empty) + `ChatMessageRecord.answer_text` (≤50, 600 000-char cap counted in the 8 M budget), `verbatim.js` + 4 `{verbatim:true}` renderers, `Containerfile` minify step, `.env.example` 3 vars.
- `uv run python -c "…answer_text, show_text_max_chars, show_text_max_blocks"` → `True 12000 5`; each negative refuses startup naming its field; `0` accepted as inert ✅
- `bash .agents/validate.sh` → **validation OK**: 4320 unit+integration tests green, `TOTAL 6849 17 → 99%` (gate app/ >90% OK), `ruff check .` "All checks passed!", `pyright` 0 errors (re-run after my edits, 08:28).
- E2E, each in isolation `--no-cov`: `test_verbatim_show_text.py` 13 passed (panel bytes == `documents.content`, server caption, clipboard == server string, `/document.html?source=…&path=…`, honest unresolved state, reload+share, `show_image` regression, flag-off app) ✅; green: `test_answer_images` `test_harness_aligned_tools` `test_agent_document_tools` `test_markdown_tables` `test_markdown_inline_links_images` `test_svg_document_preview` `test_smoke` `test_document_viewer` `test_markdown_blockquotes` `test_chat_persistence` `test_thinking_timeline` `test_chat_rag` `test_settings_mobile_value_width`.
- **Defect found & fixed (pre-existing, not phase 182):** `tests/e2e/test_admin_settings_panel.py::test_admin_sees_groups_and_source_badges` failed — its whole-page `assert "reese" not in page.content()` tripped on the shell's onboarding chips, which follow the newest saved chats in the one shared E2E DB (a leftover `reeselink.json` question from a tool suite). Scoped the strict sweep to `.settings-shell` and kept a whole-page `reese:reese` credential needle → 12 passed with the leftovers still present.
- Docs: README fixed 2 inconsistencies — Quick Start omitted the **required** `BOR_ADMIN_PASSWORD`/`BOR_SESSION_SECRET` (the app fail-loud refuses boot) and the broken anchor `#chat--` → `#chat-`; full re-read of README (1816 lines) + AGENTS confirmed the phase-182 feature/settings/log/UI-contract text matches the code, and every `.env.example` var + every `Settings` field is documented.
- Notable: kept `resolve_answer_blocks` synchronous on the SSE terminal path (bounded indexed SELECTs, matching the existing `query_log` precedent and the phase's documented fence-lookup bound); no live-infra changes made.
- Next pending phase: none — `todo/` holds only 182 (its 8 task files are in `complete/`; the harness commits + moves `00_phase.md`).
All green. Final report:
**Phase 160 completion pass — verified (final verification; all 5 tasks already in `complete/`)**
- **Verified, no code defects found:** budget trailers (`TOOL_BUDGET_REMAINING/LAST/SPENT`), cap-path rejection + `ROUND_CAP_FALLBACK_ANSWER` + `ROUND_CAP_WRAPUP_INSTRUCTION`, `done.budget_exhausted` (ABSENT-when-false), `rounds=/cap_hit=` log fields, `agent_max_rounds=10` default, frontend Continue button + restore + shared-page exclusion, mock markers.
- **Tests/lint:** `uv run pytest` 153/153 green (EXIT 0); `uv run pytest --cov=app --cov-report=term-missing` TOTAL **99%** (>90%); `uv run ruff check .` clean; `uv run pyright` 0 errors/0 warnings.
- **Criteria:** ① decreasing trailer pinned by unit tests (9→…→spent) ✅ ② cap path ends readable, no tool lines after cap (E2E) ✅ ③ `budget_exhausted` true-only-on-cap, absent otherwise (integration) ✅ ④ Continue button → one fresh `continue` turn, fresh budget, record intact (E2E) ✅ ⑤ flag survives refresh; shared chat never renders it (`shared.js` has no `budget_exhausted` path) ✅ ⑥ `max_rounds=0` byte-identical single `tools=None` request; default still 10 ✅ ⑦ full suite/coverage/lint green ✅ ⑧ `test_tool_budget_telemetry.py` **7/7** in isolation; all 6 regression E2E suites green in isolation ✅ ⑨ commit + phase move = harness (I make no git history/index changes).
- **Docs:** README.md — fixed: the "Continue researching" button and cap behavior were undocumented (added a Chat-section paragraph + an Agent-tools-section paragraph, incl. the phase-71 recorded-revision note); env-var table, commands, and architecture all verified consistent otherwise. AGENTS.md — verified consistent, no changes needed.
- **Decisions:** no code changes required — phase was fully implemented; only README docs added. No live-infrastructure touched.
- **Next pending phase:** `161_reasoning_bubble`.
Refactor §12 roadmap to point to ls commands and 00_phase.md files
instead of listing specific phase numbers and descriptions.
Remove ~20 phase-number references from anchors, revision notes,
tool surface, feedback, and sync sections — keep only the one
stable reference (phase 03 convention).
Replace migration ranges with 'ls alembic/versions/'.
Replace hardcoded retry values with 'configurable (defaults: ...)'.
Status header now points to §12 instead of listing counts.
Re-lands the master plan (removed from VCS in 281f355 as .agent/PLAN.md)
at .agents/PLAN.md — the path AGENTS.md and the codebase's PLAN §…
references use. Rebuilt from the original text plus every
owner-permitted revision recorded in the completed phases: A1–A17
anchors with the full revision log (auth, SSE thinking/tool/retry
events, agent tools, history, SPA shell), new A18–A20 (docs push,
deploy caching, security headers), current data model (11 tables),
locked persona + <tools> copy, current UI/UX contracts (46rem/92rem
column, theme tab, never-stale feedback, no autoscroll), the full
per-turn log line, and the phase 01–92 roadmap with the open TODO.md
items as next up.
