# docs/history — provenance archive (not active guidance)

Superseded and reference material from the project's beginnings, kept for the record. **Nothing here is current
instruction** — the wiki (`docs/wiki/`, starting at its Reference index) is the source of truth, and the authoritative
references are `PROJECT_CONTEXT.md`, `docs/SETUP.md`, `docs/formats.md` and `docs/memory-map.md`.

- `claude-bfm-starting-point.md` — the original project brief. **Superseded; contains corrected-wrong claims** (see its banner). Do not follow.
- `project_architect_v1.3.0.md` — the methodology template the Project Context File was generated from (the published successor is ProjectArchitect 2.0).
- `cheap-tier-ab-experiment.md` — the June-2026 A/B of cheap vs strong drafters, the measurement behind the model ladder.

Moved to the archive at the Phase-33.5 consolidation (2026-09-07) and removed from the tree at Phase 34 (2026-09-08; the
history keeps them), indexed by the wiki's Archive index: the raw
multi-agent research output (`Fable5-ultracode-Full research findings-*.output`, whose actionable content was folded into
`docs/SETUP.md` and `docs/formats.md` in June) and the three original link-note `.txt` files (their URLs are in `docs/SETUP.md`).
