## What Is It?

Evolve-CLI run log for 2026-04-04 session.

---

## Signals

- **Tests:** 406 passed, 0 failures
- **Lint:** 0 ruff issues
- **Coverage:** 95% overall (create_cmd 91%, fmt_cmd 92%, validate_cmd 92%, update_cmd 94%)
- **Source analysis:** 19 findings (4 duplication, 2 dead code, 5 edge handling, 8 complexity)
- **SOP vs code gap:** No critical gaps found

## Candidates

| # | Description | TV | SR | BC | N | Score | Result |
|---|-------------|----|----|----|----|-------|--------|
| A | Simplify id()-based comparison in fmt_cmd normalize_metadata_order | 9 | 10 | 10 | 7 | 9.20 | **Selected** |
| B | Use extract_section() in validate_cmd for SOP step counting | 8 | 9 | 10 | 7 | 8.55 | Pass (deferred) |
| C | Consolidate H1 regex between validate_cmd and parser | 8 | 8 | 10 | 7 | 8.25 | Pass (deferred) |
| D | Use atomic_write() in create_cmd instead of direct write_text() | 7 | 9 | 10 | 7 | 8.20 | Pass (deferred) |

## Implementation

Implementing Candidate A: Replace fragile `[id(mf) for mf in ...]` comparison with direct list equality `ordered_fields == parsed.metadata_fields` in `fmt_cmd.normalize_metadata_order()`. MetadataField is a @dataclass with auto-generated `__eq__`, and both lists contain the same object instances, so list equality is semantically equivalent and more Pythonic.
