 /**
- * Phase 7c orchestrator — discover + parse + Haiku classify + persist.
+ * Phase 7c orchestrator (v0.5.0 SoT model).
  *
- * Ingests CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, .claude/CLAUDE.md, and `.claude/rules/**.md`
- * during init. Each H2/H3 section is classified by Haiku as:
+ * Plan §5.4 algorithm:
+ *   1. Discover sections in `CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `.claude/rules/*.md`.
+ *   2. Topic-index lookup (built by phase 5b) before classification:
+ *      - **Match** — slug already owns a docs/CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md/rule
+ *        SoT and was emitted by an earlier phase. Phase 7c records the
+ *        cite (no source rewrite — operator's narrative stays intact)
+ *        and skips emit.
+ *      - **Net-new** — slug is in topic-index but not yet emitted.
+ *        Phase 7c classifies the section via Haiku (kind only:
+ *        decision / domain-rule / constraint / informational), emits
+ *        a verbatim DEC/INV via `sot-emit` with `sot_kind: "path"` +
+ *        `sot_path: <file>#<anchor>`, auto-promotes (`status: accepted`).
+ *   3. Conflict detection — for each freshly emitted entity, scan
+ *      accepted DECs/INVs in `sot-cache.yaml` for high Jaccard overlap
+ *      against the new body, then run a Haiku contradiction judge per
+ *      candidate (`contradict | agree | unrelated`). On `contradict`,
+ *      write `.cairn/ground/conflicts/<new>__<other>.md` with both
+ *      prose sides + Haiku reasoning. The cairn-attention skill renders
+ *      these per §5.4.1; **no source rewrite ever fires from conflicts**.
+ *   4. Auto-promote — every novel entity ships `status: accepted`. The
+ *      `_inbox/` draft queue is gone (the v0.4.x review surface was the
+ *      v0.5.0 pivot's primary motivation).
  *
- *   - "rule-net-new"  — section states a rule cairn doesn't have yet (DEC draft to inbox)
- *   - "rule-conflict" — section conflicts with existing cairn state (soft-conflict to attention)
- *   - "informational" — TOC, history, walkthrough — no action
- *   - "operator-keep" — already inside keep-marker block (skipped pre-classification)
- *
- * Net-new rules become DEC drafts in `.cairn/ground/decisions/_inbox/`.
- * Soft conflicts append to `.cairn/baseline/rule-conflicts-<ISO>.yaml`.
- *
- * Resilient: a single Haiku failure marks the section "informational" and
- * continues. All output paths captured in the result so the skill can surface
- * them.
+ * Output side-effects (all relative to repoRoot):
+ *   - `.cairn/ground/decisions/<DEC-id>.md`        (one per novel decision/domain-rule)
+ *   - `.cairn/ground/invariants/<INV-id>.md`       (one per novel constraint)
+ *   - `.cairn/ground/topic-index.yaml`             (extended w/ dec_id stamps)
+ *   - `.cairn/ground/sot-bindings.yaml`            (forward+reverse for new ids)
+ *   - `.cairn/ground/sot-cache.yaml`               (token cache for Layer A)
+ *   - `.cairn/ground/conflicts/<a>__<b>.md`        (one per contradiction)
+ *   - `.cairn/baseline/rules-merge-<ISO>.yaml`     (full audit)
