 **Current status:**
 - **Core platform complete:** Metadata-first analysis, sidecar-backed metadata maintenance, AI-assisted prose editing with confirmation + git history, review bundles, and Scrivener Direct extraction are all implemented.
-- **Active development:** OpenClaw integration, the client-agnostic setup contract, and chapter-structure follow-up work after the first-class chapter/epigraph rollout.
+- **Recently completed:** Structural Authority Hardening tightened remaining structure-authority paths so scene placement and ordering go through explicit structure workflows, ordinary sync reports drift instead of adopting it, and trusted structure exports can be diagnosed and restored explicitly.
+- **Active development:** none selected.
 - **Deferred backlog:** embeddings search.
 - **Ideas and open questions:** tracked separately so future exploration does not distort the active roadmap.

+2. Use `update_scene_metadata` for intentional editorial fields (for example, beat, POV, status, and tags); use `list_chapters` plus `assign_scene_to_chapter` or `move_scene` for chapter placement and ordering. Numeric chapter filters are compatibility aliases for read scopes, not mutation targets.
 3. Use `search_metadata` and `find_scenes` to verify scenes are discoverable under the expected filters.
 
 Outcome: your AI assistant can reliably find the right scenes without drifting from the manuscript.
