+# confluence-doc.sh — Plane-1 SCHEDULED documentation gap-detector (RECOMMEND-ONLY).
+#
+# Design refs: docs/r720-agent-team-design.md §4 (confluence-doc row) and §7 Phase 4.
+# Decisions D3 + D6 + D7:
+#   D3  Report/recommend-only to start; no auto-Notion/Jira writes.
+#   D6  Confluence writes (the LATER on-demand path) use a dedicated IT-space-scoped
+#       `confluence-bot` Atlassian service account — PROVISIONING, gated (see footer).
+#   D7  SCHEDULED mode = read + RECOMMEND only: doc gaps / stale pages / missing runbooks go
+#       INTO the mode-600 report, NEVER auto-written. The on-demand SSH-invoked WRITE path
+#       (including Mermaid edits via ~/.claude/scripts/confluence_mermaid.py) is a separate,
+#       LATER provisioning path and is NOT implemented here.
+# This mirrors compliance-drift.sh / dependency-cve.sh conventions VERBATIM so the coordinator
+# (§5) drives it identically.
+#
+# WHAT IT DOES (read-only, RECOMMEND-ONLY):
+#   Diffs three documentation INPUTS against what Confluence's IT space actually documents, and
+#   REPORTS the gaps as recommendations (never writes):
+#     1. REPO SET        — every non-archived org repo (from the same $MIRROR_DIR mirrors the
+#                          sweep already produced; or --targets / a fixture repo list) SHOULD
+#                          have a Confluence page in the IT page-ID map. A repo with no mapped
+#                          page is a "doc gap" recommendation.
+#     2. AWS INVENTORY   — (optional) a read-only AWS resource inventory JSON (stacks/Lambdas)
+#                          SHOULD each be represented in the AWS Architecture Map / a page.
+#                          A resource absent from the map is a "missing-from-architecture-map"
+#                          recommendation. Absent inventory file => that whole check is SKIPPED
+#                          (noted, never a gap on missing data).
+#     3. PAGE-ID MAP     — required runbook/standing pages (Incident Response Runbooks, Backup &
+#                          DR, IAM & Access) SHOULD exist in the map. A required page missing
+#                          from the map is a "missing-runbook" recommendation. Optionally, the
+#                          LIVE Confluence API confirms each mapped page still exists and is not
+#                          stale (lastUpdated older than $STALE_DAYS).
+#
+#   The page-ID map is the canonical one from memory project_confluence_migration (IT space
+#   720900). It is supplied as a JSON file (--page-map / $PAGE_MAP_FILE); the canary ships a
+#   mock map. We do NOT hardcode the live IDs into this script — they live in the map file so
+#   the map can evolve without a code change.
+#
+# CONFLUENCE API (LIVE reads need the confluence-bot token — PROVISIONING):
+#   The staleness / page-existence checks call the Confluence Cloud REST API read-only using
+#   CONFLUENCE_BASE_URL + CONFLUENCE_EMAIL + CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN (the confluence-bot creds,
+#   D6). When those are ABSENT, OR --no-api / --canary is passed, the API checks are SKIPPED
+#   and NOTED — they are NEVER reported as a gap on missing data (memory
+#   feedback_cloudwatch_alarms: no false alarms on no-data). This mirrors compliance-drift's
+#   GitHub-API-skip pattern EXACTLY (status-code-aware: 200 -> parse, 404 -> a real "page gone"
+#   gap, anything else -> skip with NO alarm). The token / service account is gated provisioning.
+#
+# ON-DEMAND WRITE PATH (NOT HERE — provisioning): an actual Confluence update, including Mermaid
+#   architecture-map edits, goes through ~/.claude/scripts/confluence_mermaid.py (ADF-only,
+#   dry-run-default, macro-count + revert-diff guarded — it has destroyed page 1540098 before via
+#   a full-body markdown round-trip, so ADF-only is load-bearing). That --apply / live-dry-run is
+#   the LATER on-demand path and is gated. See the PROVISIONING footer.
+#
+# CANARY / DRY-RUN (offline, no network, no token):
+#   --canary runs against a fixture (checkers/fixtures/confluence-doc/): a repo list, a MOCK
+#   page-ID map, and a MOCK "confluence inventory" JSON (what the API would have returned). It
+#   asserts the known gap count against EXPECTED_GAP_COUNT (exit 3 on mismatch). --canary implies
+#   --dry-run + --no-api, so it is fully offline + deterministic. This is the anti-complacency
+#   floor (design §6.4) AND the routing dry-run.
+#
+# SCOPE / SAFETY:
+#   Read-only + RECOMMEND-only. Never writes Confluence, never creates a service account, never
+#   calls the Mermaid --apply path. Not wired into systemd. See PROVISIONING footer.
+#
+# Exit: 0 = ran (whether or not it found gaps); 2 = setup/usage error; 3 = canary assertion FAILED.

 Total = **6** (`EXPECTED_DRIFT_COUNT`). The canary pins `DOCS_ONLY_REPOS=docs-repo` and
 `COMPLIANCE_EXEMPT=""` internally so it is deterministic regardless of the operator's env.
 
+**Secret-fixture naming:** `BadName_repo`'s planted tracked-secret env file is committed as

 When you add/remove a check or fixture, update both the fixture and `EXPECTED_DRIFT_COUNT`
 in the same commit (the canary edit is itself caught on the next run — design §6.4).

+# confluence-doc canary fixtures
+
+Planted doc-gap corpus for `checkers/confluence-doc.sh --canary` (offline, no network/token).
+The checker asserts the total doc-gap count equals `EXPECTED_GAP_COUNT` (anti-complacency
+floor, design §6.4). If a gap check regresses (stops firing) or the fixture changes, the count
+drifts and the canary FAILS (exit 3).
+
+`--canary` implies `--dry-run + --no-api`, so the LIVE Confluence API checks (page-existence +
+staleness, which need the gated `confluence-bot` token, D6) are SKIPPED and noted — they are
+never counted as a gap on missing data (memory `feedback_cloudwatch_alarms`).
+
+## Fixture inputs
+
+| File | Role |
+|---|---|
+| `repos.txt` | the repo set to diff against the page-ID map (one repo name per line) |
+| `mock-page-map.json` | a MOCK IT page-ID map (same shape as `project_confluence_migration`) |
+| `mock-aws-inventory.json` | a MOCK read-only AWS inventory (what the API/collector would return) |
+
+## The 3 planted gaps
+
+| Check | Subject | Why it's a gap |
+|---|---|---|
+| repo-documented | `orphan-tool-repo` | no page in the mock map (and not doc-exempt) |
+| aws-documented | `afi-backup-monitor` (Lambda) | inventory resource with no page in the mock map |
+| required-page | `IAM & Access Management` | a REQUIRED standing page omitted from the mock map |
+
+Non-gaps proving the checks are precise (must NOT inflate the count):
+- `payments-dashboard`, `seahaven-slack-bot` repos → matched to their pages.
+- `engineering-handbook` repo → `DOC_EXEMPT_REPOS` → skipped, not a gap.
+- `payments-dashboard` Lambda → matched to the "Payments Dashboard" page.
+- `Incident Response Runbooks`, `Backup & Disaster Recovery` required pages → present in the map.
+- The LIVE API staleness/existence check → SKIPPED (no creds in canary), noted, not a gap.
+
+Total = **3** (`EXPECTED_GAP_COUNT`).
+
+When you add/remove a check, a fixture input, or a planted gap, update the fixture(s) and
+`EXPECTED_GAP_COUNT` in the same commit (the canary edit is itself caught on the next run —
+design §6.4).
+
+## Not exercised offline (PROVISIONING — gated)
+
+The LIVE Confluence reads (and the on-demand WRITE path via
+`~/.claude/scripts/confluence_mermaid.py`, including the page-1540098 live dry-run that must list
+all 16 weweave Mermaid macros) require the `confluence-bot` service account + token. That account
+creation, its 90-day rotation, and the Mermaid live dry-run are provisioning steps documented in
+the checker's PROVISIONING footer — they are NOT performed by the canary.

+# plan-groomer canary fixtures
+
+Sample sibling-checker reports for `checkers/plan-groomer.sh --canary` (offline, no network/
+token). The planner asserts the groomed-plan **item count** equals `EXPECTED_PLAN_ITEMS`
+(anti-complacency floor, design §6.4). If aggregation or dedup regresses, the count drifts
+and the canary FAILS (exit 3).
+
+## How the canary works
+
+`--canary` points `$REPORT_ROOT_BASE` at `sample-reports/` and writes the groomed plan into a
+mode-700 temp dir (so the canary writes nothing under `$HOME`). It reads each source checker's
+**latest** `<date>/<checker>.json`, normalizes every `.findings[]` into a plan item
+`{repo, severity, source, title, action}`, **dedupes** on `repo|source|title`, prioritizes by
+severity, and writes the plan into the mode-600 report.
+
+These are plain report JSON files (no `dotgit/` trick needed — plan-groomer reads sibling
+reports, it does not scan git checkouts).
+
+## Fixture report set
+
+| Source checker | Date dir | Findings | Contributes to plan |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `compliance-drift` | `2026-06-10` (OLD) | 1 | **0** — sentinel: older date MUST be skipped (latest-date selection) |
+| `compliance-drift` | `2026-06-17` (latest) | 3 | **2** — two of the three are an exact duplicate (`payments-dashboard` / README) that must dedup to one |
+| `dependency-cve` | `2026-06-17` | 2 | **2** — `jinja2` (high) + `lodash` (critical) |
+| `doc-drift` | `2026-06-17` | 1 | **1** — stale README arch section |
+| `confluence-doc` | (none) | — | **0** — no report present; noted in `missing_sources`, NEVER invented as work |
+
+Total groomed plan items = **5** (`EXPECTED_PLAN_ITEMS`).
+
+This exercises four invariants in one run:
+1. **latest-date selection** — the `2026-06-10` sentinel must not leak into the plan.
+2. **dedup** — the duplicate README finding collapses to one item.
+3. **multi-source aggregation** — three different checkers feed one prioritized plan.
+4. **no-data discipline** — a missing source (`confluence-doc`) is noted, never fabricated.
+
+When you add/remove a source checker, a fixture report, or a finding, update the fixture(s)
+and `EXPECTED_PLAN_ITEMS` in the same commit (the canary edit is itself caught on the next run
+— design §6.4).

+# plan-groomer.sh — Plane-1 planner for the R720 agent-team (REPORT-ONLY).
+#
+# Design refs: docs/r720-agent-team-design.md §4 (planner roster: plan-groomer —
+# "Drafts a groomed weekly plan INTO the mode-600 report for now (D3); auto-write to
+# Notion/Jira is a later toggle once trusted") and §7 Phase 4 ("planner + confluence-doc").
+# This mirrors compliance-drift.sh / dependency-cve.sh conventions VERBATIM so the
+# coordinator (§5) can drive it identically — BUT its output discipline is different:
+# it is REPORT-ONLY, not ALARM-only.
+#
+# WHAT IT DOES (read-only):
+#   Aggregates the actionable items the OTHER Plane-1 checkers already produced into a
+#   single prioritized "groomed weekly plan". It does NOT re-scan repos or hit any network:
+#   it reads the LATEST per-checker JSON reports under $REPORT_ROOT_BASE/<checker>/<latest-date>/.
+#   Sources consumed (each optional — a missing checker is noted, never invented as work):
+#     compliance-drift/<date>/compliance-drift.json   (.findings[])
+#     dependency-cve/<date>/dependency-cve.json        (.findings[])
+#     doc-drift/<date>/doc-drift.json                  (.findings[], if Phase-3 doc-drift exists)
+#     confluence-doc/<date>/confluence-doc.json        (.findings[], the Phase-4 sibling)
+#   Each finding is normalized to a plan item {repo, severity, source, title, action},
+#   DEDUPED (same repo+source+title collapses), grouped by severity then repo, and written
+#   into a prioritized plan in the mode-600 report (JSON + human text).
+#
+# REPORTING (D3 — REPORT-ONLY, the key difference from the ALARM-only checkers):
+#   - Writes a per-run JSON + text report under $REPORT_ROOT/<UTC-date>/, mode 600 (umask 077).
+#   - Slack: posts NOTHING by default. A groomed plan is a digest, not an alarm — auto-write
+#     to Notion/Jira (or a Slack digest) is a later toggle once signal quality is trusted (D3).
+#     There is intentionally NO post_slack_alarm() call in the default path; --notify is a
+#     future seam left inert here. A clean week (zero items) still writes an (empty) plan.
+#   - Reuses the substrate's redact() for the in-report digest string (defense-in-depth).
+#
+# SUBSTRATE REUSE (lib/sweep_substrate.sh, sourced — bash dynamic scoping):
+#   redact   -> mask any secret-shaped value that leaked into an upstream report title.
+#   (discover_repos/mirror_repo/post_slack_alarm are intentionally NOT used: plan-groomer
+#    neither clones nor alarms — it only reads sibling reports and writes one mode-600 plan.)
+#
+# CANARY / DRY-RUN (offline, no network, no token):
+#   --canary points $REPORT_ROOT_BASE at a fixture set of sample checker reports
+#   (checkers/fixtures/plan-groomer/sample-reports/<checker>/<date>/<checker>.json) and asserts
+#   the groomed-plan ITEM COUNT equals EXPECTED_PLAN_ITEMS (anti-complacency floor, design §6.4).
+#   If aggregation/dedup regresses, the count drifts and the canary FAILS (exit 3). --canary
+#   implies --dry-run. Fully offline + deterministic. --dry-run also suppresses the (inert)
+#   --notify seam.
+#
+# SCOPE / SAFETY:
+#   Read-only. No network, no token, no clones, no agent_team/ writes, no systemd wiring —
+#   that is provisioning (gated). See "PROVISIONING (NOT DONE HERE)" at the bottom.
+#
+# Exit: 0 = ran (always, report-only); 2 = setup/usage error; 3 = canary assertion FAILED.
