docs(rfc): define and enforce a uniform RFC format; adopt it across the corpus
Define the in-file RFC contract in docs/rfc/README.md § The file format:
the header block (`# RFC: <title>` plus a dateless Status enum
cross-checked against the lifecycle folder), the per-lifecycle body
skeleton (a Problem opener everywhere; Proposal/Alternatives considered/
Acceptance criteria/Risks in proposed/; present-tense Decision/
Consequences with proposal-era headings banned in implemented/; the
frozen proposal shape in rejected/), and a mandatory Alternatives
considered section with a date-fenced grandfather comment for pre-format
RFCs whose alternatives are not reconstructible from the record.
Enforce it with a new doc-sync gate, scripts/verify-rfc-format.ts, and
normalize all 112 RFCs to it: ~15 Status-line spellings collapse to the
enum, 29 Context openers become Problem, the 39 legacy-format XXX debt
markers are resolved and banned from reappearing, proposal-era sections
in implemented RFCs are rewritten to shipped reality (including the
web/fs/subagent seam RFCs' migration plans and test checklists, closing
the doc-tiers deferred-work item on the web seam), every RFC gains an
Alternatives considered section or the grandfather comment, and the
bilingual pair is re-mirrored and re-recorded.
Move the generated index tables out of README.md into a fully generated
docs/rfc/INDEX.md — gen-rfc-index now writes the whole file, and
verify-rfc-classification checks its freshness and rejects index-shaped
rows in the curated README — which makes room for the format contract to
live in the README front door instead of a separate FORMAT.md.
The decision record, and the first RFC written in the new format, is
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-05-uniform-rfc-format.md.

The hook/CI symmetry in this record is superseded by [Fast local Git hooks ](2026-07-22-fast-local-git-hooks.md ); CI remains the exhaustive enforcement path.

## Problem
2026-06-11 15:24:14 +08:00
2026-06-13 18:39:20 +08:00
This codebase is developed primarily by coding agents. Agents follow enforced gates far more reliably than prose conventions, and "a lot of work" is not a cost argument when agents do the labor. Early evidence: tests that didn't typecheck shipped (vitest doesn't typecheck) and were only caught by a review.
2026-06-11 15:24:14 +08:00
## Decision
2026-07-22 16:37:20 +08:00
Every mechanically checkable AGENTS.md promise gets a command that exits non-zero. CI invokes the exhaustive set, while Git hooks reserve their latency budget for cheap local defects:
2026-06-13 18:39:20 +08:00
2026-06-17 23:42:45 +08:00
- Max-strict TypeScript (`noUncheckedIndexedAccess` , `exactOptionalPropertyTypes` , …); examples, tests, and scripts typecheck in CI via the root no-emit `tsconfig.json` while package/vendor code stays behind its own project-reference boundary.
2026-07-29 14:32:11 +08:00
- [Oxlint ](2026-07-29-oxlint-linter.md ) with type-aware TypeScript rules plus the @stylistic and SonarJS compatibility plugins, enforcing the house style and file-local duplicated-logic checks; vendored code excluded.
2026-07-14 00:24:04 +08:00
- jscpd detects cross-file clones in package production TypeScript and repository scripts; narrow source-range exceptions document deliberately parallel implementations.
- Per-file 100% coverage on `packages/*/*/src` (v8); unreachable defensive guards carry `/* v8 ignore */ ` with stated reasons instead of deletion.
2026-06-22 06:11:00 +08:00
- knip (dead code/deps), publint (package correctness), workspace constraints (workspace rules: private, cordis peer+dev, uniform version, ESM), and a NodeNext consumer typecheck for built package declarations.
2026-08-09 14:55:06 +08:00
- lefthook pre-commit applies project-free Oxlint validation and [safe fixes with a bounded retry ](2026-08-09-oxlint-only-fix-workflow.md ), rejects staged whitespace, and checks the vendor manifest; pre-push runs incremental typecheck. CI runs the full matrix on node 22.19/24/26 plus built application smokes for the Headless, TUI, ACP, JSON-RPC, workflow, and code-runtime entry paths.
2026-06-11 15:24:14 +08:00
## Consequences
2026-07-22 16:37:20 +08:00
- Conventions survive agent turnover; cheap commit/push defects fail locally and exhaustive violations fail in CI.
2026-06-13 18:39:20 +08:00
- The gates themselves are code to maintain; config changes are reviewed like any change.
2026-06-20 22:29:45 +08:00
- 100%-coverage pressure can produce assertion-free tests — mutation testing is the planned counterweight (see [the mutation-testing proposal ](../../proposed/testing/2026-06-11-mutation-testing.md )).
