Repository-scale refactoring / campaign ledger
Twenty-file decomposition campaign
A bounded, graph-gated campaign for decomposing twenty authority-concentrated files without flattening credit or verification.
Problem
Twenty tracked large files concentrated authority and blocked safe parallel work.
Axl’s accountable contribution
Axl owned campaign architecture, graph gates, independent verification, credit and interlock rules, and execution direction.
Decision scope
The campaign set the completion definition, per-file routing, graph gates, verification stages, and contributor-credit requirements.
Constraints
Every file had to remain attributable, independently reviewable, and bounded by the campaign’s 2,000-line ceiling.
Technical decisions
An EPIC ledger, per-file issue and pull-request interlock, bounded extraction series, and independent verification gates carry the campaign state.
Delivered artifact
A public campaign ledger and bounded extraction series.
Observed result or explicitly bounded outcome
Twenty of twenty tracked files recorded complete under the campaign definition and 2,000-line ceiling.
Validation class: third-party / public artifact / self-authored method
Public artifact (campaign EPIC ledger). Artifact-validated; no independent endorsement claimed.
Collaborator credit
Individual issue, pull-request, review, and implementation credit remains with the public campaign record.
