Complete APT provider design and implementation review #103

Description

@omry

Objective

Perform a complete, coordinated design review of:

  • docs/APT_PROVIDER.md
  • docs/APT_PROVIDER_DETAIL_DESIGN.md

The APT provider is already fully implemented. Treat the implementation and
tests as the evidence surface: determine whether both design documents describe
the shipped behavior accurately, whether the implementation satisfies their
normative contracts, and whether the two documents agree with each other and
with docs/BLUEPRINT_ENVIRONMENT_MODEL.md at their stated authority boundaries.

Review scope

  • Review the conceptual product semantics in APT_PROVIDER.md.
  • Review the concrete Go types, package boundaries, state, Docker operations,
    migrations, failure handling, and implementation gates in
    APT_PROVIDER_DETAIL_DESIGN.md.
  • Trace every normative behavioral, security, identity, lifecycle, persistence,
    concurrency, and failure-semantics claim to the implementation and tests.
  • Review the implementation in the opposite direction for material behavior,
    constraints, defaults, or trust assumptions absent from the documents.
  • Reconcile disagreements between the conceptual design, detailed design,
    Blueprint Environment Model, implementation, and tests according to their
    declared authority rather than silently harmonizing prose.

Review requirements

  • Run the complete deep-design-review workflow over both documents as one
    coordinated review, with separate per-document evidence where useful.
  • Verify every implementation claim against code before accepting a finding or
    changing a document. Search misses are not evidence that behavior is absent;
    use case-insensitive searches, symbol tracing, call-chain inspection, and
    alternate package/file names before classifying anything as unimplemented.
  • Classify findings clearly, including conflicting, unimplemented, additive,
    stale, or ambiguous behavior.
  • Distinguish truth fixes from representation fixes. Do not make a stale design
    internally consistent and call the underlying implementation mismatch fixed.
  • Record implementation gaps in docs/BACKLOG.md when they are intentionally
    deferred, with links back to the durable review decision.

Deliverables

  • A dispositioned finding register with code and document evidence.
  • Reconciled design text for every accepted documentation finding.
  • Durable review sidecars under docs/.review/ for both documents, including
    reviewed-byte attestations and standing decisions.
  • Reconstructible working review trails under temp/reviews/.
  • Backlog entries for every accepted implementation gap that is not fixed in
    the review change.
  • A final clean review verdict only after every finding is verified, rejected,
    or explicitly deferred.

Completion criteria

  • Both APT design documents have received complete review coverage.
  • Their authority boundary and shared contracts are mutually consistent.
  • Every material design claim has code evidence, and every material shipped
    behavior has an explicit design owner.
  • No unresolved finding is hidden by wording changes or left only in temporary
    review state.
