Make research evaluation deterministic with recorded fixtures

The evaluation scripts spawned the MCP as a subprocess and made live
Brave, Algolia, and page requests, so they could not run in CI and had
drifted: one fixture query no longer passes the current sanitizer, and
both scripts exceed the per-server call budget added in v0.12.2.

Run the documentation server in-process over an InMemoryTransport, one
server per case, and replay recorded fixtures through the existing
fetchImplementation seam. Each case carries its own fixture; the replay
synthesizes the exact wire formats (Brave hits, Algolia hits, the OkHttp
static index, DocC JSON, HTML, Markdown, YouTrack JSON) keyed by the
request URLs the production provider logic computes, so the sanitizer,
routing, allowlists, redirect and content-type checks, extraction, and
ranking all run unmodified. RESEARCH_EVAL_LIVE=1 keeps a live mode for
true retrieval-quality runs.

Thread fetchImplementation through the Expo Algolia search so the
recorded mode covers the expo provider, replace the sanitizer-broken
kotlin-coroutines query with a symbol-anchored one, and run both
evaluations in CI.

+## Keeping prompts true (`ecr ref-check`)
+
+Good reviewer prompts cite real code: "the only session entry point is
+`server/src/session.ts`", "every webhook router must call `sanitizeSecrets`". Then the
+code moves and the prompt keeps citing a path that no longer exists — the reviewer
+reasons from a fiction, on every PR, with nothing to warn you.
+
+`ecr ref-check` makes those citations checkable. Pin each one with a ref, in a comment
+of its own (`<!-- … -->` in Markdown, `//` in JSONC):
+
+```md
+<!-- @ref server/src/session.ts#createSession — the only place a session is minted -->
+<!-- @ref server/src/entities/oauth/ — every provider lives here -->
+<!-- @ref glob:**/*WebhookRouter.ts — the routers this rule is about -->
+```
+
+A target is a file, a `dir/`, `glob:<pattern>`, `file#symbol`, or `doc.md#heading` —
+never a line number, since a line number rots without any signal. Symbol anchors are
+checked by whole-word match, so code moving inside its file is fine and a rename is not.
+
+The check is strict on purpose: a backticked token in `.expo-code-review/` that looks
+like a repo path **must** be a ref, because the stale citations are exactly the ones
+nobody thought to annotate. A token with no extension (`eas-build-worker/terraform`,
+`general-central/{module,production}`, `finops`) counts when it names something that
+exists — so those get pinned too, while `anthropic/claude-opus-5`, shaped the same way,
+stays prose. For a token that only looks like a path, say so once:
+`<!-- @ref-ignore knex.raw() -->`. It also checks what your config already declares —
+`enforceAgents` ids, scope `config` directories, scope path globs.
+
+Refs are repo-root-relative, including in a scope's own setup dir. A scope prompt that
+cites `general-central/module` for `infrastructure/general-central/module` gets told the
+root-relative form to use.
+
+Two run points:
+
+- `ecr ref-check` exits 1 on any problem. Run it in CI or a pre-commit hook.
+- `ecr review` / `ecr ci` run it too, and never fail a PR's checks with it. The comment
+  carries a **Review setup** note instead: refs that no longer resolve, plus cited code
+  *this PR* changes, where the ref still resolves but the guidance may not.
+
+---
+
+## Providing context and research capabilities
+
+`@expo/code-review-cli` includes `review-research-mcp` and exposes that one bundled,
+local MCP directly to reviewer and cross-file passes. The agent decides whether an
+external API contract needs research and can either search for an exact symbol or
+fetch an exact supported documentation URL already present in the review context.
+Coordinator, verifier, stack-verifier, and time-critical no-tools passes never receive
+the MCP.
+
+Enable it only in the root config, which CI loads from the PR's trusted base:
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "research": {
+    "enabled": true,
+    "maxQueries": 8,
+    "resultsPerQuery": 2,
+    "timeoutMs": 15000
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Add a repository Actions secret named `BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY`. The generated
+automatic and command-triggered workflows pass only that search credential to the
+MCP. Expo uses its public documentation search and OkHttp uses its official static
+search index; neither consumes Brave quota.
+
+ECR resolves the MCP entry point inside its own installed package and starts it with
+the current absolute Node executable, so a PR-owned `PATH` entry cannot replace
+either component. Each review gets an owner-only temporary MCP config and append-only
+audit. Claude receives that explicit config under `--strict-mcp-config`, with project
+settings and slash commands disabled; OpenCode receives the same fixed local command.
+The Brave credential is passed to the MCP child, not the model process.
+
+The MCP is the outbound security boundary. Search queries are normalized before
+logging or networking: quoted literals, URLs, email addresses, paths, prose stop
+words, overlong/high-entropy tokens, and unsupported punctuation are removed;
+credential-shaped or secret-labeled input fails closed. The remaining query must be
+at most eight short tokens and contain an API-like symbol. Direct URLs must use plain
+HTTPS with no credentials, port, query string, or fragment; suspicious/high-entropy
+path segments fail closed. The fixed provider host/path allowlist and redirect,
+response-size, content-type, and timeout checks still apply after that first gate.
+These deterministic checks greatly reduce accidental exfiltration; they are not a
+proof that every low-entropy string is harmless, so reviewer prompts also forbid
+sending repository text and the review-wide MCP budget defaults to eight calls.
+
+For non-Expo providers, discovery sends a fixed, provider-owned `site:` scope plus
+the bounded query to Brave's fixed Web Search endpoint. Search snippets and titles
+are never treated as evidence. ECR independently rejects off-allowlist result URLs,
+manually validates every redirect, fetches a few official pages, verifies content
+types and response sizes, extracts visible documentation text, and returns locally
+ranked bounded passages. Sparse search-engine coverage therefore produces an honest
+empty result rather than a loose guess.
+
+Research is root-only in routed monorepos because it starts a host process; scope
+configs cannot alter its network behavior or limits. Result-cache reuse remains
+disabled while research is enabled because web results and documentation can change
+without a config change.
+
+The fixed provider catalog covers Apple/Android APIs plus SDWebImage, Media3, Glide, OkHttp,
+Kotlin coroutines, Gradle/AGP, Swift concurrency/evolution, platform release/API
+availability, Expo, React Native, Reanimated, Gesture Handler, Screens, and Worklets.
+Queries are short exact symbols plus at most one useful member or behavior term. For
+example, `CameraView barcodeScannerSettings` is useful; a source snippet, import path,
+or natural-language question is not. The MCP publishes the same guidance in its tool
+metadata. An empty result stays empty; it is not replaced with a loose semantic guess.
+The tool metadata also includes an explicit provider map, so the reviewing model can
+distinguish core platform APIs from release notes, dependency-owned documentation,
+build-tool references, and issue-tracker context before choosing a corpus.
+Reviewer instructions require grounding whenever a judgment depends on an externally
+owned API contract, whether the evidence confirms a finding or dismisses a candidate
+as safe; model memory alone is not treated as sufficient for those decisions.
+Native source keeps its platform context: Apple or Android documents the OS contract,
+while an explicit dependency provider documents library-owned behavior. Providers are
+additive when both contracts matter. A path under `packages/expo-*` does not by itself
+route Swift or Kotlin code to Expo's JavaScript documentation.
+
+Direct clients can also call `fetch_platform_doc` with an exact documentation URL.
+The tool infers the narrowest matching provider (or accepts an explicit provider
+hint), then applies the same fixed HTTPS host/path allowlist, manual redirect checks,
+10-second timeout, 5 MB response limit, content-type validation, extraction, and
+passage bounds as search-discovered pages. It returns normalized extracted text, never
+raw HTML or DocC JSON. An optional `query` selects context only within that one page;
+it never broadens discovery. Context expands progressively:
+
+- `focused` returns the best passage plus adjacent passages.
+- `section` (the default) returns a contiguous window of at most 12,000 characters
+  around the best passage.
+- `document` returns at most 20,000 characters of extracted page text and should be
+  used only when the contract is spread across the page.
+
+The response reports returned and original character counts, whether it was truncated,
+the anchor passage id, and bounded available passage ids. Search results also carry
+neighboring passage ids so an agent can recognize when more local context exists. For example,
+`https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/view/menustyle(_:)` is resolved to
+Apple's DocC JSON and returned with the canonical page URL and API availability.
+
+Every research-enabled review audits each sanitized outbound query and each returned result's
+title, provider, provenance class, and canonical URL. GitHub Actions receives the
+same audit trail in the step summary, while `.runs/reviews.jsonl` keeps the queries
+plus bounded returned passages for short-lived operational inspection. Reviewers
+are instructed to attach `sources` only when documentation materially supports a
+finding. ECR accepts only exact URLs returned during that review, restores canonical
+titles, carries citations through coordination, and renders them below the finding;
+invented or unrelated citations are dropped.
+
+Reviewers also emit a bounded `researchDecisions` record only when documentation
+materially confirms a finding candidate or proves one safe. ECR grounds those records
+against the exact MCP audit and discards ungrounded claims. After verification and
+suppression, the log and Actions summary report final findings with citations,
+supported and dismissed candidates, and unique audited results materially used versus
+unused. Counts use canonical URLs rather than passage count, so repeated hits do not
+inflate usefulness.
+
+For a query routed to the `expo` provider, `serve` POSTs the already-sanitized query
+directly to Expo's public Algolia search endpoint and returns canonical
+`docs.expo.dev` hits. The endpoint, application id, and browser-visible search-only
+key are fixed in the package; redirects are rejected; response size, timeout, hit
+count, and returned URL host are bounded.
+
+OkHttp's newly migrated documentation is still sparse in Brave, so its provider
+downloads the fixed official `lysine.dev` static search index, validates and indexes
+it in memory once per MCP process, and rejects any entry outside the existing OkHttp
+allowlist. Brave remains a fallback if that official index is unavailable.
+
+An absolute `research.indexPath` remains available as an optional local fallback.
+The MCP and its trusted updater ship with ECR: build that fallback from this
+repository with `bun run research:update`, or from an installed package with
+`review-research-mcp update`. This is operator/scheduled offline tooling, not a
+step to run before each review. The built-in seed catalog lives in
+`research/sources.json`; `seedUrls` are deterministic starting pages for the
+bounded crawler, and extraction/indexing use no LLM. Installations requiring a fully
+offline review can supply a separately built, verified index and omit the Brave key.
+Installation-specific provider configuration is intentionally
+deferred: when added, it should follow the trusted root-config model used for agents
+without permitting PR-controlled URLs, commands, or executable parsers. Expo skills
+are complementary, not another search corpus: their pinned procedural guidance can
+later be supplied to review agents as separately labeled trusted context, while
+documentation search continues to return citable API evidence. Dynamic skills or
+instructions retrieved from documentation must never become executable reviewer
+instructions.

 `writeRunLog()` (`src/core/log.ts`) appends one JSON line per run — cost, tokens (run-wide and per bucket), findings, coverage notes, decision — so runs are auditable and cost/latency measurable later. The record deliberately excludes PR title and body text, keeping only `baseRef`/`headRef`, to avoid persisting secrets that might appear in author-controlled text [observed] (`log.ts:13-18`). Findings may quote changed source lines, but only content the review already publishes verbatim in the PR comment.
 
+Each successful reviewer pass may also return a bounded conclusion-only trace: up to three concrete checks and two unresolved questions, with each note capped at 240 characters. Trace parsing is deliberately fail-soft: malformed optional diagnostics are dropped while valid findings from the same response survive, so observability can never create a coverage gap. `runReview()` merges and de-duplicates valid notes per reviewer, sorts reviewer ids, caps both the stored roster and the complete decoded trace (6 KB), labels the result `unverified-model-diagnostics`, and attaches it to `CoordinatorOutput.reviewTrace` only after the decision pipeline finishes. `attachReviewTrace` strips any coordinator-authored value before attaching the engine-built trace; even a malformed injected coordinator value parses as absent rather than failing consolidation. The trace therefore never reaches coordination, verification, suppression, or decision logic. Because the GitHub comment already embeds the full coordinator output as durable state, downstream agents can recover the trace without adding visible review prose or storing raw transcripts and chain-of-thought. The same trace rides the run log for short-lived operational inspection [observed: `schema.ts` `ReviewerTraceNotesSchema`/`ReviewTraceSchema`/`ReviewerOutputSchema`; `review.ts` `mergeTraceNotes`/`buildReviewTrace`/`attachReviewTrace`; `render.ts` embeds the full review].
+
 Observability must never break a review, so both output sinks swallow their own errors: `safeLog` wraps `writeRunLog` and discards any write error [observed] (`review.ts:1269-1275`), and `appendStepSummary` is a no-op outside Actions and swallows append failures [observed] (`step-summary.ts:9-19`). A consequence worth stating: a missing or corrupt run-log entry is therefore **not** an error signal — the log's presence or absence proves nothing about whether the review succeeded.
 
 Finally, `publicFailureReason()` (`src/core/util.ts`) is the only failure text allowed into PR-facing comments [observed] (`util.ts:20-27`; used in `src/commands/ci.ts:176,365,575`). `run()` throws errors of the form `"Command failed: <cmd> <argv>\n<stderr>"`, which embed a subprocess's full command line, its stderr, and absolute runner paths — CI-internal detail of no use to a PR author and exactly what must not leak into an attacker-visible artifact. Those shapes collapse to a generic pointer at the workflow log; the tool's own argv/path-free messages pass through, since they are the actionable ones the fail-fast design means to surface. Every call site still writes the full reason to the job's stderr.

+the progress or error logs because model output is untrusted and may contain source
+secrets or terminal/log-injection payloads. If a stream ends without a final result,

+than falling back to the raw JSONL transcript. The fixed diagnostic carries the child
+exit code and may derive an actionable, fixed category from stderr only when no stream
+was emitted (rejected flags, authentication, or launch failure); arbitrary stderr is
+never copied into logs, and only an explicit final-result error message reaches
+provider-error classification. Every task-specific progress line is tagged with the

There is no side-channel database; the comment body is the state. Dismissed findings render in a collapsed `<details>` section, disjoint from the active list (a finding is never in both), keeping the main list clean while preserving a `by`/`reason` audit trail.
 
+The full review may contain an engine-owned `reviewTrace`. It is deliberately invisible Markdown state for machine consumers, not a human-facing finding or hidden chain-of-thought. Its schema caps both item count and length, and marks every note as `unverified-model-diagnostics`. Keeping it inside `review` rather than beside it is load-bearing: dismissal re-renders already pass `state.review` back through `renderMarkdown`, so the trace survives `/dismiss` and `/undismiss` without another reporter parameter or a second persistence path [observed: `schema.ts` `CoordinatorOutputSchema.reviewTrace`; `reporters/github.ts` `applyDismissal`; `render.ts` `renderMarkdown`].
+
+## Review Result Cache
+
+The same durable comment state is the cache for automated CI reviews. `reviewInputHash` (`src/core/review-cache.ts`) hashes each scoped changed file's content from the materialized PR-head tree, a normalized patch (blob ids and hunk coordinates removed; deletion/mode information retained), and every stable input that can change the result: the engine package version, resolved prompts/config/models, PR title/body, selected agents and routing mode, and external context. It deliberately excludes the temporary trusted-config path and the base/head commit OIDs. A restack changes OIDs and may move hunk line numbers; if it leaves the actual review input byte-identical, CI reuses the complete `CoordinatorOutput` already embedded in the most recent author-verified reviewer comment instead of launching the agents again. Symlinks are hashed as link targets and never followed. A package release changes the key so upgraded review logic runs once. Legacy comments store one `inputHash`; aggregate comments store one per `ScopeReviewResult`, so an unchanged scope can hit independently while a changed sibling reruns.
+
+Reuse is conservative. Manual `/review`/`--force` always reruns. Partial or failed reviews (`incomplete` or `couldNotComplete`) are never cacheable. Aggregate truncation removes the affected scope's hash because the embedded scope is no longer the full result. Stack-aware requalification and model-backed author-feedback seams stay fresh because their live GitHub inputs are not yet represented in the key. Cache lookup failures degrade to an ordinary fresh review. These gates make a false miss cost tokens, while preventing a false hit from presenting stale or incomplete coverage as current.
+
+The hash is state, not display: it lives only inside the base64 state marker and survives `/dismiss`/`/undismiss` re-renders. The existing author-plus-marker ownership check remains the trust boundary for adopting prior state; a PR author cannot forge a look-alike comment and supply a cache entry.
+
 **The coverage note only cries wolf when there is a wolf.** The partial-coverage warning renders only when `review.incomplete` is non-empty (`render.ts:166`) — the aggregate renderer additionally triggers it when unmatched files exist (`render.ts:373`) — a deliberate anti-noise choice so the warning is trustworthy when it appears (`render.test.ts:34`). The advisory footer ("never blocks a merge and never auto-approves") is duplicated verbatim across both renderers because it is a required trust-boundary claim, not incidental text.

+# LLP 0012: Review-Setup Ref Integrity
+
+**Type:** Explainer
+**Status:** Active
+**Systems:** Engine, CLI
+**Author:** Philippe Loulidi / Claude
+**Date:** 2026-08-03
+**Related:** [LLP 0006 Config Schema, Loading, and Routing](0006-config-schema-loading-routing.explainer.md), [LLP 0007 CLI Commands and CI](0007-cli-commands-and-ci.explainer.md), [LLP 0009 Adoption Templates and CI Workflows](0009-adoption-templates-and-ci-workflows.guide.md)
+
+A repo's reviewer prompts are full of citations into its own code: "the only session
+entry point is `server/www/src/utils/session.ts`", "every webhook router must call
+`sanitizeSecretPatterns`". Those citations are load-bearing — they are how a prompt
+carries repo knowledge the model does not have — and nothing kept them true. Code
+moves, symbols get renamed, and the prompt keeps citing a path that no longer exists.
+The reviewer then reasons from a fiction, silently, on every PR.
+
+`ecr ref-check` (`src/commands/ref-check.ts`, over `src/core/config-refs.ts`) closes
+that gap: every code citation in a `.expo-code-review/` setup must be a ref, and every
+ref must resolve against the checkout. It is deterministic — no model, no network —
+in the same family as `ecr verify-config` (see [LLP 0007][verify]).
+
+Two measurements motivated the strict form. Swept against a real adopting monorepo
+(universe) the check found 165 citations, none of them annotated or verified by
+anything; swept against this repo's own setup it found 24 [observed]. Not one of those
+citations was checked before this existed.
+
+## The `@ref` Grammar
+
+One grammar, reused from the engine's own LLP annotations, so an author learns it once:
+
+    @ref <target> [relation] — why it matters
+
+In markdown it lives in an HTML comment, in JSONC after `//`. Targets:
+
+| Target | Resolves when |
+|---|---|
+| `path/to/file.ts` | the file exists |
+| `path/to/dir/` | the directory exists (trailing slash is required) |
+| `path/to/file.ts#symbolName` | the file exists and still contains that whole word |
+| `path/to/doc.md#heading` | the file exists and has that heading |
+| `glob:**/Handler.kt` | at least one file in the repo matches |
+| `https://…` | shape only, never fetched |
+
+Refs are **always repo-root-relative**, including inside a scope's setup dir. A scope's
+prompts describe the same tree the reviewer sees in the diff, so a second base
+directory would only create ambiguity about which one a ref meant. Scoped prompts do
+naturally cite their own subtree (`general-central/module` for
+`infrastructure/general-central/module`), so that stays a broken ref — but the message
+resolves it against the scope root and names the root-relative form to use.
+
+`glob:` exists for readability. A Kotlin path 90 characters deep gets abbreviated in
+prose (`.../config/MetricGroupCounter.kt`) and an abbreviation cannot be resolved, so
+the check suggests the suffix glob `glob:**/config/MetricGroupCounter.kt` — short in the
+prompt, still verified.
+
+**Invariant:** a target is data, never a command. Resolution reads files inside the repo
+root only, via the same `pathInside` confinement the verifier uses ([LLP 0005][verify5]);
+absolute paths and `..` escapes are refused, not resolved.
+
+## No Line Numbers, Symbol Anchors Instead
+
+A ref may not pin a line. `src/auth.ts:42` is refused in an annotation *and* in prose,
+because a line number is the one form of citation that rots without any signal: insert
+a line above it and the ref still "resolves", now pointing at unrelated code. `#symbol`
+is the robust alternative — it survives the code moving inside its file, and breaks
+exactly when the thing cited is renamed or deleted, which is when a human should look.
+
+For the same reason there is no content hash or pinned revision in the grammar. A digest
+would trip on every edit to the cited file, including edits that leave the prompt
+perfectly correct, and a check that cries wolf gets disabled. The drift signal lives on
+the review side instead (below).
+
+## Unannotated Citations Are Broken Refs
+
+Checking only what an author annotated would make the mechanism decorative: the stale
+citations are precisely the ones nobody thought about. So a backticked token in a setup
+file that *looks like* a repo path and is not a ref fails the check.
+
+That rule needs a precise notion of "looks like a path", because prompts also backtick
+config keys, severities, commands and model ids. It comes in two tiers.
+
+**Shape alone** (`isCodeCitation`): an allowlisted source extension, a trailing slash, or
+a wildcard tail inside a path — and never whitespace, `:`, `<`, `(` or quotes. So
+`session.ts`, `src/entities/oauth/` and `.github/workflows/**` are citations, while
+`ecr ci`, `label:<agent>`, `knex.raw()`, `critical` and a bare `.ts` are prose. Fenced
+code blocks are skipped whole: they are examples, not claims about the tree.
+
+**Shape plus the filesystem** (`pathishCandidates`), for the citations shape cannot
+settle. A reviewer of this feature named the case: a Terraform prompt citing
+`eas-build-worker/terraform`, `general-central/{module,production}` and `finops`, with
+"this is very likely going to drift" [observed] — not one of those has an extension, and
+`anthropic/claude-opus-5` is shaped identically while naming no file. Syntax cannot tell
+them apart, so an extensionless token counts as a citation exactly when it *names
+something real*: probed against the scope's own subtree first, then the repo root (a
+scoped prompt citing `alerts/` means its own tree even when the root has one too), brace
+lists cut back to their fixed prefix. A token carrying `*` resolves as a glob instead,
+scope-rebased when that is what matches, so the suggested `glob:` ref itself resolves.
+Model ids resolve to nothing and stay prose.
+
+The consequence is deliberate: an extensionless path that had already drifted before
+adoption is invisible (nothing distinguishes it from prose), while every one that is true
+today gets pinned and will be caught the moment it moves. This mechanism prevents future
+drift; it does not retroactively find old drift.
+
+The escape hatch is explicit and per-token: `@ref-ignore knex.raw()` in a comment.
+Anything the heuristic misclassifies is one short line away from silence, which is why
+the rule can afford to be strict rather than advisory.
+
+**Invariant:** the check never rewrites a prompt. It reports; a human decides whether the
+ref or the prompt was wrong. A stale citation often means the *guidance* is stale, not
+just the path.
+
+## Structural Refs Need No Annotation
+
+Some refs the config already declares, so they are checked without annotation:
+`enforceAgents` ids must exist as `agents/<id>.md` in the ROOT setup (that is where the
+loader resolves them, see [LLP 0006][routing]), every scope's `config` must point at a
+real `.expo-code-review/` directory inside the repo, and every scope glob must match at
+least one file — a scope whose paths match nothing ships prompts that review nothing.
+
+## What Gets Scanned
+
+Setup dirs are found by walking the tree, not by reading `routing.jsonc`: a scope dir the
+manifest forgot still ships prompts, and its stale refs are exactly what this exists to
+surface — the same reason `ecr verify-config` sweeps on disk instead of trusting the
+manifest ([LLP 0007][verify]). Inside a setup dir the scan covers prompts and configs
+(`.md`, `.json`, `.jsonc`, `.txt`) and skips dot entries, so `.runs/` artifacts are never
+scanned. Dot directories elsewhere are skipped too, which keeps `.claude/worktrees/`
+checkouts of the same repo from being swept as if they were scopes.
+
+## Run Points: Command and Review
+
+`ecr ref-check` exits 1 on any problem: that is the gate, for CI or a pre-commit hook.
+
+The review path also runs it, and never fails a PR's checks with it — that invariant
+holds ([LLP 0002][pipeline]). Instead the review *advises*: broken refs in the setup
+become a note the reviewer comment carries, and `citedPathsTouchedBy` adds the drift
+signal a static check cannot give — "this PR changes code your reviewer prompts cite, so
+the guidance may need updating" — even when the ref still resolves. In CI the config
+comes from the trusted base ref while refs resolve against the PR head tree, so a PR that
+moves cited code is reported against the config that will actually review it.
+
+## Two Checkers, One Grammar
+
+The engine repo now has two ref checkers, and they scan overlapping files: `./ref-check`
+(the LLP corpus validator, which walks the whole tree) and `ecr ref-check` (setup dirs
+only). Running both surfaced two genuine conflicts, where one checker failed an
+annotation the other accepted [observed]:
+
+- `glob:` targets were unknown to `./ref-check`, which read them as a literal path and
+  reported "path not found".
+- Documenting the syntax broke both: a usage line containing the comment form with a
+  `<target>` placeholder was collected as a real ref, and so were the README's fenced
+  examples — the docs that teach refs were the first thing the checkers rejected.
+
+All of it is fixed in the grammar rather than per-checker: `glob:` is understood by both,
+a target starting with `<` or a backtick is a documentation placeholder, and an annotation
+inside a fenced code block is an example that neither checker resolves.
+
+Ownership stays split by target kind, not by file: an `LLP NNNN` target belongs to the
+design corpus and its own checker, so `ecr ref-check` neither resolves nor counts one —
+it owns exactly the refs that cite the reviewed repo's code. That split is why the
+templates can keep their engine annotations and still scaffold a repo that passes
+`ecr ref-check` on day one (asserted in `init-scaffold.test.ts`). An earlier attempt had
+`ecr init` strip those annotations while scaffolding; it mixed the two mechanisms and
+broke the "workflow templates land byte-identical" invariant [observed]. Parsing is what
+must be right: `LLP 0009#anchor` is one target containing a space, and taking the first
+whitespace-separated token left a bare `LLP` that read as a broken path.
+
+**Invariant:** the grammar is shared. A change to target kinds, the placeholder rule, or
+the glob dialect must land in `./ref-check` and `src/core/config-refs.ts` together, or the
+same annotation will pass one checker and fail the other.

+`@expo/code-review-cli` ships a documentation-search MCP as a second binary in
+the same npm package. ECR exposes that bounded MCP directly to reviewer and cross-file
+passes. Those agents decide when an external contract needs evidence, search for a
+precise symbol, or fetch an exact supported documentation URL already present in the
+review context. Coordinator, verifier, stack-verifier, and no-tools fallback passes do
+not receive the MCP.
+
+## One Package, Two Binaries
+
+The package exposes `ecr` and `review-research-mcp`. Keeping both in one package
+makes the query router, MCP protocol, source adapters, tests, and review integration
+one versioned unit. ECR does not resolve the MCP through `PATH`: it starts the
+package-relative entry point with the current absolute Node executable. Root config
+supplies only enablement, bounds, and an optional absolute fallback index path—not an
+arbitrary command, endpoint, host, or argument vector.
+
+The MCP remains a process boundary rather than an in-process import. Its stdout is
+the only result channel, its environment is an allowlist, and ECR caps calls and
+results. Each run uses an owner-only temporary MCP configuration and append-only audit.
+A tool failure remains local to research and never skips or weakens an ordinary review
+pass.
+
+Starting a review does not derive searches from the patch, prefetch documentation, or
+start a crawl. ECR only prepares the bounded MCP configuration and audit path. Reviewer
+and cross-file agents make individual search or direct-fetch calls when their reasoning
+identifies an external contract that needs grounding. This keeps query selection inside
+the pass that understands the candidate issue and avoids spending calls on speculative
+identifier searches.
+
+## Search, Fetch, and Optional Index Boundary
+
+`review-research-mcp serve` uses Brave Web Search as discovery for non-Expo
+providers. Each request combines the already-sanitized API/concept query with a fixed
+provider-owned `site:` scope. The endpoint is fixed, redirects are rejected, response
+size/time/hit count are capped, and only the fixed `BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY` credential
+is forwarded into the MCP child. Search titles, snippets, and ranking are untrusted
+discovery hints, never evidence.
+
+Every discovered URL must independently pass the provider's exact HTTPS host/path
+allowlist before a fetch begins. Redirects are handled manually and must remain on
+the provider's request allowlist; content type, body size, redirect count, timeout,
+and fetched-page count are bounded. The fetched official body—not the search
+snippet—is parsed, locally ranked, truncated, and returned as evidence. Apple
+documentation uses its structured DocC JSON, including symbol and availability
+metadata. Search-engine sparsity produces an empty result and never broadens the
+trust boundary.
+
+Search-time page retrieval is demand-driven rather than a background prefetch. The
+MCP fetches the highest-ranked allowlisted candidates in batches sized to the number
+of results still needed. It advances to later candidates only when an earlier page is
+rejected, unavailable, or excluded by a requested language. Candidate pages that are
+not needed to fill the result limit are not downloaded.
+
+## Direct URL Fetch Boundary
+
+The MCP also exposes `fetch_platform_doc` for a caller that already has an exact
+documentation link. It infers the narrowest matching provider from a fixed ordering,
+or accepts a fixed provider id as a hint when corpora overlap. The supplied URL must
+pass that provider's canonical HTTPS host/path allowlist before network access. The
+request adapter, every redirect, content type, timeout, and response size then pass
+the same checks as a search-discovered document. The tool fetches one page only and
+returns normalized extracted text—never raw HTML or DocC JSON. An optional query
+selects context within the page; it cannot turn the operation into discovery.
+
+Direct fetch uses progressive disclosure. `focused` returns a small contiguous group
+around the best passage. `section`, the default, returns at most 12,000 contiguous
+characters around that match. `document` returns at most 20,000 extracted characters
+and is reserved for contracts spread across a page. Every response reports the
+extracted document length, returned length, truncation, anchor passage id, and a
+bounded passage-id inventory. Search passages carry adjacent ids so a reviewer can
+recognize missing local context and expand the canonical URL instead of broadening
+discovery.
+
+This path is useful for documentation links already present in review context. For
+Apple symbol links it converts the canonical `/documentation/...` URL into Apple's
+allowlisted DocC JSON request URL, preserving the human-facing canonical URL in the
+result. A URL that matches no provider is rejected before `fetch`; a redirect outside
+the selected provider's separate request allowlist is rejected before following it.
+
+Expo-routed queries use the fixed public Expo Algolia endpoint. Its browser-visible
+key is search-only; redirects are rejected, response size/time/hit count are capped,
+records are schema-validated, and canonical result URLs must remain on
+`docs.expo.dev`.
+
+OkHttp uses the fixed official `lysine.dev` static search index because the newly
+migrated feature pages are not yet comprehensively represented in Brave. The index
+has the same response-size/schema/URL constraints, is cached only within the MCP
+process, and can never admit a URL outside the OkHttp provider allowlist. Brave is a
+fallback when that first-party index is unavailable.
+
+`review-research-mcp update` is a separate, operator-invoked command for trusted
+scheduled jobs. The updater uses exact HTTPS host/path allowlists, manually
+revalidates redirects, checks response content types, and bounds response size,
+crawl depth, page count, timeout, and delay. The Expo crawl supplies a local fallback;
+precise Expo search uses the live query rather than pretending an empty-query result
+page is a complete Algolia index.
+
+The crawler is not part of the ordinary review workflow. An adopter requiring an
+offline fallback may run `update` in a separate scheduled secretless job from a
+pinned package and trusted checkout. That job must execute no PR code, receive no
+model credential, and publish a verified read-only index artifact.
+
+The generated index is deliberately not published in the npm package. Documentation
+changes independently of ECR, and coupling a snapshot to every CLI install would make
+releases and invalidation expensive. If supplied, an absolute trusted-base
+`research.indexPath` is fallback evidence when remote discovery fails or misses.
+Research-enabled reviews bypass result-cache reuse because remote search,
+documentation, and optional index content can change without a config change.
+
+## Query and Prompt Boundary
+
+Reviewer prompts and MCP tool metadata tell direct clients to use exact symbols plus
+one member, behavior, or constraint term, and to retry a broad result with at most one
+narrower query. The MCP then deterministically removes quoted literals, URLs, email
+addresses, paths, prose stop words, overlong or high-entropy tokens, and unsupported
+punctuation. Credential-shaped or secret-labeled input fails closed. The remaining
+query must contain an API-like symbol, stay under eight short tokens, and fit the
+review-wide call budget.
+
+Provider selection preserves native platform ownership. Swift or Objective-C source
+uses Apple for OS contracts; Kotlin, Java, and Gradle source uses Android for platform
+contracts. Explicit library signals add the owning provider—such as SDWebImage,
+Media3, Glide, or OkHttp—when library behavior also matters. Repository ownership is
+not documentation ownership, so a `packages/expo-*` path does not replace Apple or
+Android with Expo documentation.
+
+MCP output is schema-validated, limited to HTTPS URLs from the requested provider,
+truncated, and sanitized. Returned passages are labeled untrusted reference data in
+the reviewer prompt. The Brave credential is scoped to the MCP child and is never
+written to MCP output, prompts, logs, or run artifacts. Issue tracker text keeps
+distinct provenance and is never presented as an API contract.
+
+## Research Provenance and Citations
+
+Research is observable without exposing the Brave key or unbounded responses. Each review
+prints the exact bounded queries and every accepted result's title, provider,
+provenance class, and canonical URL. GitHub Actions receives that same data in its
+step summary. The JSONL run log additionally stores at most the already-bounded
+passage returned to the reviewer so operators can determine whether research was
+useful after the fact; it still excludes PR title/body and model transcripts.
+
+The reviewer may select a source for a finding only by copying its exact title and URL
+from an MCP result. Model output crosses an engine-side grounding seam: URLs absent
+from the run's append-only MCP audit are removed and accepted titles are restored from
+canonical evidence. Grounded sources are unioned across duplicate reviewer
+findings, preserved through coordinator rewrites by the finding fingerprint, stored
+in hidden comment state, and rendered as visible links. Sources do not participate
+in fingerprints or severity/decision logic, and findings that did not materially use
+research omit them.
+
+A reviewer may also emit a bounded, conclusion-only `researchDecisions` record when
+documentation materially confirms a finding candidate or proves one safe. These
+records never enter policy or decision logic. ECR discards any record without an exact
+audited source. After verification and suppression produce the final findings, ECR
+counts final cited findings, supported and dismissed candidates, and unique result
+URLs materially used versus unused. The Actions summary displays those metrics and
+grounded candidate conclusions; the JSONL run record preserves the same structured
+data with the queries and bounded results.
+
+## Installation-Specific Research Is Deferred
+
+The built-in source catalog covers Apple, Android, platform releases, Swift
+Evolution, SDWebImage, Media3, Glide, OkHttp, Kotlin coroutines, Gradle/AGP, selected JetBrains
+issues, Expo, React Native, Reanimated, Gesture Handler, Screens, and Worklets.
+The canonical OkHttp host is backed by both the
+[maintainer's transfer announcement](https://jakewharton.com/the-lysine-contingency/)
+and [Commonhaus's project-transfer record](https://www.commonhaus.org/activity/315.html).
+A later design may let adopters select or add research capabilities through trusted
+root configuration, similar to agent files. That extension must not turn arbitrary
+PR-controlled URLs, commands, parsers, or executable plugins into review inputs. New
+remote sources still need an operator-controlled host/path allowlist and provenance
+class; scope configs remain unable to alter the research runtime or index.
+
+Expo skills solve a different problem: pinned procedural guidance for how a reviewer
+should reason or act. They may later be supplied as versioned, separately labeled
+trusted context selected from root configuration. Documentation results remain
+untrusted evidence with canonical sources. A crawler result must never install,
+activate, or rewrite a reviewer skill.

+
+Usage:
+  ecr ref-check [--root <dir>] [--json]
+
+Sweeps every .expo-code-review/ directory in the repo (root and scopes) and checks
+that each code citation still resolves against this checkout:
+  • \`@ref <target>\` annotations in prompts and configs. A target is a file, a
+    directory (trailing slash), \`glob:<pattern>\`, a \`file#symbol\`, or a
+    \`doc.md#heading\`. Never a line number — lines rot silently.
+  • Unannotated citations: a backticked token that looks like a repo path must be a
+    ref, so nothing cites code without being checked. Use \`@ref-ignore <token>\`
+    for a token that is not a path.
+  • Structural refs the config already declares: enforceAgents ids, scope config
+    directories, and scope path globs.
+Exit 0 = every ref holds. Exit 1 = at least one is broken.
+
+Options:
+  --root <dir>   Repository root to check (default: the current git repo).
+  --json         Emit {ok, problems:[{file, line, kind, problem, target?}]} on stdout.
