# Tasks: FCE Vector-Based Consensus Engine Refactor

## 0. Verification (Per teamsop.md - COMPLETE BEFORE IMPLEMENTATION)

- [x] 0.1 Read current `theauditor/fce.py` to understand existing structure
- [x] 0.2 Read `theauditor/context/query.py` to understand CodeQueryEngine pattern
- [x] 0.3 Audit database schema - identify table coordinate columns (file, line)
- [x] 0.4 Categorize 226 tables into Semantic Registry categories
- [x] 0.5 Prototype Universal Query - verify data can be joined across vectors
- [x] 0.6 Identify all hardcoded thresholds in current fce.py

- 115 tables have `line` column
- 43 files have 2+ vector convergence (data joins work)
- Hardcoded thresholds found: `complexity <= 20`, `coverage >= 50`, `percentile_90`

---

## 1. Foundation - Package Structure

- [x] 1.1 Create `theauditor/fce/` package directory
- [x] 1.2 Create `theauditor/fce/__init__.py` with public API exports

  - `Vector` enum (STATIC, FLOW, PROCESS, STRUCTURAL)
  - `Fact` model
  - `VectorSignal` model with `density` property
  - `ConvergencePoint` model
  - `AIContextBundle` model
- [x] 1.4 Write unit tests in `tests/fce/test_schema.py`:
  - Test Vector enum values
  - Test VectorSignal.density property returns 0.0-1.0
  - Test VectorSignal.density_label format
  - Test Pydantic validation for all models

**Phase 1 Status**: COMPLETE (Session 2025-12-04)

  - Test RISK_SOURCES contains expected tables
  - Test get_context_tables_for_file returns Python tables for .py files
  - Test get_context_tables_for_file returns React tables for .tsx files
  - Test all table sets are disjoint (no overlaps)

**Phase 2 Status**: COMPLETE (Session 2025-12-04)

## Effort Estimates

| Phase | Tasks | Complexity | Notes |
|-------|-------|------------|-------|
| 0 | Verification | LOW | Already done in brainstorm |
| 1 | Schema | LOW | Pydantic boilerplate |
| 2 | Registry | LOW | Static data categorization |
| 3 | QueryEngine | MEDIUM | Core logic, database queries |
| 4 | Formatter | LOW | String formatting |
| 5 | Command | LOW | Wire up existing code |
| 6 | Cleanup | LOW | Delete code |
| 7 | Phase 2 | MEDIUM | Cross-command integration |
| 8 | Docs | LOW | Documentation |

**Critical Path:** 1 → 3 → 5 (Schema → QueryEngine → Command)

## Final Verification (Due Diligence - 2025-12-04)

### Spec Compliance Check

| Requirement | Status | Notes |
|-------------|--------|-------|
| Vector-Based Signal Density | PASS | 4 vectors, density = vectors_present/4 |
| Follow CodeQueryEngine Pattern | PASS | Same __init__, Row factory, close() |
| Semantic Table Registry | PASS | 147 tables categorized |
| Service API for Commands | PARTIAL | Public API exported, --fce flags = Phase 7 |
| Fact Stacking Without Judgment | PASS | No CRITICAL/HIGH_RISK labels |
| Zero Hardcoded Thresholds | PASS | No magic numbers for risk |
| AI Context Bundle | PASS | to_prompt_context() returns valid JSON |

### Acceptance Criteria (spec.md)

| Criteria | Status | Evidence |
|----------|--------|----------|
| aud fce outputs vector-based signal | PASS | 4 vectors shown in output |
| ZERO hardcoded thresholds | PASS | No complexity <= 20 or percentile_90 |
| Other commands can import FCEQueryEngine | PASS | from theauditor.fce import FCEQueryEngine |
| Output format is pure facts | PASS | No risk labels in output |
| Performance <500ms | PASS | 74ms for 605 files |
| All Pydantic models validate | PASS | 22 schema tests |
| JSON output valid | PASS | Valid parseable JSON |
| No emojis | PASS | Windows CP1252 compatible |

### Known Discrepancies

1. **Vector.STRUCTURAL value**: spec.md says `"struct"`, implementation uses `"structural"`
   - Decision: Keep `"structural"` as more readable, update spec if needed
   - Impact: None (tests pass, JSON output consistent)

2. **Phase 4 architecture**: Text formatting moved to command (Rich rendering)
   - Decision: Cleaner separation - formatter = JSON, command = Rich
   - Impact: 9 formatter tests removed, functionality preserved

### Test Summary

| Test File | Tests | Status |
|-----------|-------|--------|
| test_schema.py | 22 | PASS |
| test_registry.py | 45 | PASS |
| test_query.py | 30 | PASS |
| test_formatter.py | 19 | PASS |
| **Total** | **116** | **PASS** |
