The traceability gate failed on an orphan tag: seventeen sites across
dr-catalog, dr-sync, dr-thumbs and the UI claim FR-CAT-15, and
requirements.md defines FR-CAT-1 through FR-CAT-14. Not a typo and not a
renumbering — the trash was built, designed and documented in the modules
that implement it, and the requirement itself was never written. An orphan
is the gate working: a tag naming an undefined ID would otherwise count as
covered, which is how a matrix comes to report coverage of things nobody
specified.
FR-CAT-15 now says what trash.rs does, in the terms the module already
argues: a soft delete moves the file into `.darkroom-trash/` and the
catalog records that it happened, because a flag alone would not survive
invariant 5.2.4 — the catalog is rebuildable from sources, so a rescan
would find every deleted file still in the library and re-index it. That
is also why the scanner exclusion is part of the requirement rather than
an implementation detail; the folder and the exclusion are one mechanism
and neither works alone. Permanent delete removes the file before the row,
a delete of something already gone counts as success, and the count and
bytes are shown before emptying.
docs/traceability.md is regenerated: 150 requirements, 71 covered, no
orphans.
