Audit (2026-03-25)

1. rw-config.yaml path matrix

All paths resolved from repository root; all OK.

Key	Path	Result
version_file	src/fynd_deals/version.py	OK (file)
main_changelog	CHANGELOG.md	OK (file)
changelog_dir	docs/changelog-and-release-notes/changelog-archive	OK (dir)
scripts_path	packages/frameworks/workflow mgt/scripts	OK (dir)
readme_file	README.md	OK (file)
kanban_root	docs/project-management/kanban	OK (dir)
kanban_board	kboard.md (under kanban_root)	OK (file)
fr_br_root	docs/project-management/kanban/fr-br	OK (dir)

Pattern spot-check (Epic 7):

• epics/Epic-7/Epic-7.md — exists
• epics/Epic-7/Story-006-*.md — matches Story-006-post-windsurf-project-review.md
• Task doc Story-006-post-windsurf-project-review/T09-config-and-git-state-validation.md — matches T\{task\}-*.md convention under story folder

Semantics: changelog_archival.mode: latest_only matches CHANGELOG.md (repository root) header and practice. semver_mapping_strategy: task_touch matches README / semver_converter.py usage. use_kanban: true matches RW Step 7 behavior.

2. Version file and branch

• version.py (pre-RW): 0.7.6.8+1, VERSION_EPIC=7, VERSION_STORY=6, VERSION_TASK=8 — consistent with Epic 7, Story 6, completed T08.
• Branch: epic/7-documentation-maintenance — epic digit 7 aligns with VERSION_EPIC.

Story goals: After T09 and RW, goals “Align version, changelog, and kanban to a single coherent state” and “Validate config drift and git state” are satisfied by this audit plus ongoing RW/kanban discipline (T02–T09).

3. Git baseline (pre-RW commit)

• Branch: epic/7-documentation-maintenance (tracking origin).
• git status: Local modifications present before this RW: docs/project-management/kanban/kboard.md (prior manual refresh), .coverage (pytest artifact; listed in .gitignore). Action: RW commit includes intentional kanban updates; .coverage not committed.

4. .cursorrules vs rw-config.yaml

• File Paths (ai-dev-kit) block lists src/fynd_deals/version.py, CHANGELOG.md, changelog archive under docs/changelog-and-release-notes/changelog-archive/, kanban under docs/project-management/kanban/, validators under packages/frameworks/workflow mgt/scripts/validation/ — matches live rw-config keys and repo layout.
• Kanban board: Rules mention _index.md or kboard.md; both exist; rw-config primary board file is kboard.md — consistent.
• Embedded YAML example in rules uses generic fallback docs/changelogs for projects without config — not a contradiction; rules state config overrides when present.
• validate_rw_task_intent.py referenced in rules — present under scripts_path/validation/.

5. .cursorignore

• No root .cursorignore file in this repository. Assessment: Acceptable; no concrete ignore requirement identified in this audit. Optional future addition if IDE noise warrants it (defer to separate chore).

---

Findings

Area	Severity	Action
rw-config paths	—	None; all valid
Version vs branch	—	Aligned
Git dirty kboard.md	Low	Folded into RW kanban Step 7 updates
.coverage untracked/modified	Low	Remain ignored via .gitignore
.cursorrules vs config	—	Aligned; no edit required
.cursorignore absent	Info	Documented only

Summary: Low risk to RW and kanban traceability — configuration SoT is consistent with filesystem and agent rules.

Recommendations

• Keep load rw-config.yaml first as mandatory in RW (already in .cursorrules).
• Contributors: use epic branch naming consistent with VERSION_EPIC (validated by validate_branch_context.py).
