 // Project/App: gsd-pi
-// File Purpose: GSD database facade, schema, migrations, and single-writer write API.
-// GSD Database Abstraction Layer
-// Provides a SQLite database with provider fallback chain:
-//   node:sqlite (built-in) → better-sqlite3 (npm) → null (unavailable)
-//
-// Exposes a unified sync API for decisions and requirements storage.
-// Schema is initialized on first open with WAL mode for file-backed DBs.
+// File Purpose: GSD single-writer barrel + write/read wrappers.
 //
 // ─── Single-writer invariant ─────────────────────────────────────────────
-// This file is the ONLY place in the codebase that issues write SQL
-// (INSERT / UPDATE / DELETE / REPLACE / BEGIN-COMMIT transactions) against
-// the engine database at `.gsd/gsd.db`. All other modules must call the
-// typed wrappers exported here. The structural test
-// `tests/single-writer-invariant.test.ts` fails CI if a new bypass appears.
+// Every write-SQL statement against `.gsd/gsd.db` lives behind a typed
+// wrapper in the single-writer layer (this file plus db/writers/*). Connection
+// ownership, lifecycle, schema/migrations and transaction primitives live in
+// db/engine.ts and are re-exported here for backward compatibility, so callers
+// keep importing from "./gsd-db.js".
 //
-// `_getAdapter()` is retained for read-only SELECTs in query modules
-// (context-store, memory-store queries, doctor checks, projections).
-// Do NOT use it for writes — add a wrapper here instead.
