Final 929 sweep: every YAML-shaped helper is gone. No production code
parses or writes YAML front matter anywhere.
Surface removed:
- db/yaml_legacy.rs (FrontMatter/StoryMetadata structs, parse_front_matter,
set_front_matter_field, yaml_residue marker) — file deleted.
- ItemMeta::from_yaml — deleted; callers pass typed ItemMeta::named(...) or
ItemMeta::default() and use typed CRDT setters (set_depends_on,
set_blocked, set_retry_count, set_agent, set_qa_mode, set_review_hold,
set_item_type, set_epic, set_mergemaster_attempted) for the rest.
- write_coverage_baseline_to_story_file + read_coverage_percent_from_json —
the coverage_baseline YAML field was write-only (nothing read it back);
removed along with its caller in agent_tools/lifecycle.rs.
- update_story_in_file's generic `front_matter` HashMap parameter —
tool_update_story now intercepts every known field name and routes it
to a typed CRDT setter; unknown keys are rejected with an explicit error
pointing at the typed setters. The function only takes user_story /
description sections now.
- All 117 ItemMeta::from_yaml callsites migrated. Where tests previously
passed a YAML-shaped content blob and relied on the helper to extract
name/depends_on/blocked/agent/qa, they now pass:
write_item_with_content(id, stage, content, ItemMeta::named("Foo"))
crate::crdt_state::set_depends_on(id, &[...]) // when needed
crate::crdt_state::set_blocked(id, true) // when needed
crate::crdt_state::set_agent(id, Some("...")) // when needed
- write_story_content + write_story_file (test helper) now take an
explicit `name: Option<&str>` instead of parsing it from content.
- db::ops::move_item_stage stopped re-parsing YAML on every stage
transition; metadata is read straight from the CRDT view when mirroring
the row into SQLite.
New CRDT setters added for symmetry:
- crdt_state::set_name (mirrors set_agent — explicit name updates).
cargo fmt --check, clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings, and the
2830-test suite all pass.

Master had 8 uncommitted single-line whitespace changes (blank-line trimming
in test mod headers, etc.) left over from a previous mergemaster cargo-fmt
run that didn't get committed. Each subsequent merge attempt hit:
cherry-pick failed: 'Your local changes to the following files would be
overwritten by merge. Please commit your changes or stash them.'
So merges had been silently un-mergeable for the last several rounds —
mergemaster correctly reported the issue but had no way to fix master's
own state from inside the merge_workspace.
Files affected (all whitespace-only):
- chat/transport/matrix/bot/messages/{handle_message,on_room_message}.rs
- chat/transport/slack/commands/{llm,mod}.rs
- http/mcp/agent_tools/worktree.rs
- http/workflow/story_ops/{create,criterion,update}.rs
cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings: clean
cargo fmt --all --check: clean
2636 tests pass.
