How this was produced
This gap report was generated from the site activity snapshot for the period 2026-05-20 to 2026-05-27. Analysis covers 57 new/updated documents, 6 active authors, and 131 raw events. The dominant workstreams this period are SQLite/daemon performance investigation (sql-busy), identity UX design iterations, and document command design solutions. No comment activity was detected on any document.
Open gaps
🔴 High priority
SQLite contention resolution plan lacks a consolidated decision record
Why it matters: The sql-busy thread has generated 20+ documents exploring WAL mode, backoffs, daemon pooling, and Erlang principles, but no single document captures which approaches were adopted, rejected, or deferred.
Proposed action: Create a synthesis document that consolidates the decisions from the actions document and the global-picture analysis into a single decision record.

Identity design user stories lack a cross-referenced UX flow map
Evidence: identity-design-user-stories, sign-in-clicking-the-avatar, join-a-site-with-an-existing-identity, log-in-on-a-second-device
Why it matters: Four separate user stories exist but there is no document showing how they connect into a coherent identity UX flow (e.g., does "sign in via avatar" precede or follow "join a site with existing identity"?).
Proposed action: Create a flow diagram document that maps the sequence and branching between these user stories, linked from the parent vault-ux-flows-iterations- document.

🟡 Medium priority
Document commands design solutions lack a rationale for chosen approach
Why it matters: The design solutions document exists but the rationale for why specific command patterns were chosen over alternatives is not captured.
Proposed action: Add a "Decision rationale" section to the design solutions document that explains trade-offs considered.
Suggested owner: @Untitled Contact
Performance benchmarking lacks a standardized methodology document
Evidence: performance-reports, performance-gabo-laptop-2026-05-26-2022, debugsqlite-2026-05-26-2320, debugnetwork-2026-05-26-2324
Why it matters: Multiple performance reports exist but there is no documented standard for how benchmarks should be run, what metrics to capture, or how to compare results across environments.
Proposed action: Create a performance benchmarking methodology document that defines standard test conditions, metrics, and reporting format.

🟢 Low priority / parking lot
"Add search to a query block" issue lacks linked design exploration
Evidence: add-search-to-a-query-block
Why it matters: This issue was updated but no design document or tech talk explores the implementation approach.
Proposed action: Link any existing design exploration or create a lightweight proposal document.
Suggested owner: open
"Adding cover and icon to the document" issue lacks UX rationale
Evidence: adding-cover-and-icon-to-the-document
Why it matters: The issue exists but there is no documented rationale for why covers and icons are needed or how they fit into the document model.
Proposed action: Add a brief design rationale comment or link to the relevant HIL design principles.
Suggested owner: open
Contradictions detected
No contradictions detected this period. The sql-busy thread shows exploratory divergence (multiple approaches being investigated in parallel) but no explicit contradictions between documents.
Stale or potentially outdated content
Tech sync meeting notes from 2026-05-21 — 20206-05-21--tech-sync was updated on 2026-05-26 but the filename contains a typo ("20206" instead of "2026"). This may cause confusion in chronological sorting.
sql-busy parent document — sql-busy was last updated 2026-05-22 but many child documents were updated through 2026-05-27. The parent may not reflect the latest state of the investigation.
Patterns
Deep investigative thread pattern: The sql-busy thread shows a pattern of one author (@Untitled Contact) creating many narrow, single-topic documents (WAL, backoffs, contention, daemon pool, vacuum, rollback) and then synthesizing them into a global-picture document. This is a healthy knowledge production pattern.
Identity UX iteration pattern: Two authors (@Untitled Contact and <hm://z6
