Parent: #168
Outcome
Migrate darrow-information-architecture's setup and doctor mechanics to Python + uv with reliable cross-platform path and filesystem behavior.
Priority
6 of 14 remaining plugins. It builds on the file-mutation pattern established by the decisions plugin and adds richer repository-tree operations.
Scope
Migrate the substantial logic behind ia-doctor, ia-setup.sh, and their thin launchers. Preserve the separation between setup and doctor intent and keep repository-specific judgment in the skills.
Done criteria
- Preserve all setup/doctor commands, diagnostics, refusal behavior, output records, and exit statuses.
- Support Windows and POSIX paths, newline conventions, case behavior, symlink limitations, and atomic guidance-file updates explicitly.
- Retain reachability, routing, scoped-rule, adapter, deduplication, and stale-reference invariants with regression tests.
- Add the contained package to the Python inventory and meet all typing, complexity, property-test, and coverage gates.
- Validate fresh independent installation and execution on Linux, macOS, and native Windows.
- Keep both skill eval suites passing and update specifications, documentation, and matching manifest versions.
Migration blueprint
Use the implementation merged in PR #173 as the default blueprint for Python + uv plugin mechanics. Reuse its self-contained package layout, committed uv lock, runtime/development dependency separation, python-packages.txt inventory, Ruff and strict mypy gates, separate 95% line and branch coverage gates, and fresh copied-artifact validation. Extend that pattern with native-Windows fresh-artifact validation where this rollout requires Windows support. Document any plugin-specific deviation explicitly instead of introducing a competing convention.
