# Process Implementation Audit

## 1. Question

Did this run follow the updated rule that long-source analysis, splitting, and extraction should happen in sub-sessions or sub-agents to avoid main-session context overload?

## 2. What Used A Real Sub-Session

```text
Step 0 Whole-Source Gestalt Alignment:
  used_subsession: true
  participant: whole-source-gestalt-reviewer
  output: invocations/whole-source-gestalt-reviewer/returned-output.md
```

The full-source global analysis was performed by a real sub-session participant. The main session saved the returned output and recorded human confirmation.

## 3. What Did Not Use A Sub-Session

```text
source registration:
  used_subsession: false
  reason: administrative metadata and source map setup

topic graph synthesis:
  used_subsession: false
  reason: based on Step 0 output plus user confirmation, not a fresh full-source read

material routing:
  used_subsession: false
  reason: routed from confirmed topic graph and existing neutral source-block inventory

topic docs / material extraction:
  used_subsession: false
  reason: performed as a bounded material-unit extraction from routed blocks after Step 0 confirmation
  process_gap: future runs should dispatch this extraction to worker/sub-session participants when available

coverage / distortion audit:
  used_subsession: false
  reason: bounded artifact audit over generated indexes and topic docs
```

## 4. Assessment

```text
status: acceptable_with_process_gap
```

The highest-context operation, Step 0 full-source analysis, complied with the new rule. Later routing and extraction did not re-read the full source as one context, but the material extraction step should still be treated as worker/sub-session work in future runs because it creates reusable content from source material.

## 5. Rule Backwrite

This run caused a public rule update:

```text
- topic-doc material extraction should prefer worker/sub-session execution
- main session may integrate, index, and verify returned outputs
- if main session performs bounded extraction for pragmatic reasons, record that reason in the audit log
- add a Topic Docs / Material Extraction human confirmation gate
```
