USR369 direction: merge code-suffix gov files into decade, delete code, each system fixes own references. Full audit first (11 systems x 5 file types): directive/jurisdiction already decade-only. knowledge showed a uniform-looking pattern initially assessed as safe empty-stub-vs-real-content - WRONG, caught by reading full content instead of trusting headers: every single knowledge-[code].md on all 9 non-trivial systems had real unique operational data (Health: MRN/medications/allergies; Daily: gym locations/routes; Travel: trip reconciliation status; others: real technical workarounds) from an 08/03/26 EXEC_OPEN-rotation migration event. Merged all 9 into their decade versions under a MERGED 08/05/26 section, verified byte-for-byte via read-back before touching the code file. handoff showed genuine mixed patterns per system - Tech's code file was a deliberate CHECKPOINT.php-bug workaround note (K219, already reflected in decade), Kitchen/Master/Finance/Health/Inner had decade as the clear current version, Builder had already self-migrated everything independently, and Daily was backwards - decade was just a stub pointing to code, which had the real trip/mileage/expense detail. Merged Daily's real content into decade. todo needed a real merge for Daily too - found the newer (08/05) code version had silently DROPPED 5 real backlog items present in an older (07/29) decade version during an earlier incomplete merge attempt (DB backfill, duplicate-DB-files flag, dead endpoints T012/T477, toolbox proposal, a trash flag) - restored all 5 rather than let them be lost a second time, flagged for USR369 to confirm current status. All 9 knowledge + 8 handoff + 1 todo code-suffix files converted to DEPRECATED stubs pointing to the real decade file (no delete primitive exists - T726 still open - so stubs, not removal, following the pattern Builder had already used on their own files). Did NOT touch OPEN.php/CLOSE.php/CHECKPOINT.php or any Tier-1 command file - this was gov-file content only, separate from and ahead of SPEC-GOVFILE-SUFFIX.md's staged Tier-1 migration plan which still awaits review. Broadcast platform-wide (id 43) directing each system to find and fix its own internal references to the old filenames. Updated SPEC-GOVFILE-SUFFIX.md's status to reflect this completed piece without closing T729, since the Tier-1 command-file work is separate and still pending.
