How this was produced

This gap report was generated by the Knowledge Manager on 2026-05-11, covering site activity from 2026-05-06 to 2026-05-11. The snapshot includes 41 new or updated documents, 7 active authors, and zero comment threads. Analysis applies LAFH/GC-RED methodology against the Knowledge Manager Charter and Runbook.

Open gaps

🔴 High priority

No documented decision on "deleted vs not-found" semantics
Evidence: Deleted vs not-found discussion, Deleted vs not-found issue
Why it matters: Without a settled semantic distinction between "document deleted" and "document not found," the system cannot provide reliable user-facing error states or garbage-collection logic.
Proposed action: Convene a decision thread to define the two states and document the outcome in a project-level decisions document.
Suggested owner: open

No synthesis of performance issues across multiple threads
Evidence: Query cache normalization performance issues, Profile local performance, High network usage in activity monitor, Debug trace SIPFS CID over 60 seconds, Push resources to peer takes 45s
Why it matters: Multiple independent performance investigations are happening in parallel without a consolidated view, risking duplicated effort and missed root-cause connections.
Proposed action: Create a synthesis document linking all performance threads, identifying common patterns, and prioritizing which to address first.
Suggested owner:

🟡 Medium priority

No decision record on optional publish messages
Evidence: Optional publish messages project, Publish messages implementation decisions
Why it matters: Implementation decisions exist but are not linked to any resolved design rationale, making future maintenance harder.
Proposed action: Add a "Rationale" section to the decisions document explaining why each choice was made.
Suggested owner:

Unreferenced documents lifecycle undefined
Evidence: What happened to unreferenced documents discussion
Why it matters: Without a policy on unreferenced documents, the system may accumulate orphaned content or prematurely delete user data.
Proposed action: Document a retention policy for unreferenced documents and link it from the Document Metadata project.
Suggested owner: open

🟢 Low priority / parking lot

No Discord notifications design document
Evidence: Working on Discord notifications for this site discussion
Why it matters: Work is happening but no design doc exists for others to review or contribute to.
Proposed action: Create a lightweight design document for Discord notifications.
Suggested owner:

"Test test" document appears to be a test artifact
Evidence: Test test discussion
Why it matters: Test artifacts in the document tree create noise and may confuse readers.
Proposed action: Delete or archive the test document.
Suggested owner:

Contradictions detected

No contradictions detected in this period. The Deleted vs not-found discussion and issue represent an unresolved question, not a contradiction — no conflicting decisions have been made yet.

Stale or potentially outdated content

Navigation items missing plan — created 2026-05-06, no updates since. May be stale or resolved without documentation.
Daemon Auth project — last updated 2026-05-06. With the daemon responsibilities discussion ongoing, this project may need revision.

Patterns

Performance is the dominant theme this week. Four of the seven active authors contributed to performance-related documents, spanning query cache, network usage, profile timing, and resource push latency. This suggests a coordinated push to address systemic performance issues.
Design exploration is concentrated. Three of the seven active authors (z6MkkGNjfnikRkxK9EaxMPYy3HYxNGkRyXTWxxRtynB2kyeb, z6MkrbYsRzKb1VABdvhsDSAk6JK8fAszKsyHhcaZigYeWCou, z6MkgisVMELvqnsCo3dYmtVpy8PiqPGMVwfAyBWFn84vebq4) drove the majority of document-commands design solutions, indicating a focused design
