Legend label audit and assignment #47

Description

@flyingrobots

Transition framing

This issue supersedes the migrated card from docs/method/backlog/cool-ideas/PROCESS_legend-audit-and-assignment.md.

Legend management now targets GitHub issue labels such as legend:process, legend:synth, and legend:core, plus local evidence docs that still declare legends in frontmatter.

Contract

Add tooling or documented workflow for auditing and assigning Method legends across the GitHub-Issues-backed tracker.

The tool should be able to answer:

  • Which open Method issues lack a legend:* label?
  • Which legends are used in issue labels but missing from repo docs?
  • Which design docs declare legends not represented in issue labels?
  • Which issue should receive which legend label during triage?

Acceptance criteria

  • Default behavior allows unlegend-tagged issues unless a repo explicitly opts into strict coverage.
  • Strict coverage mode, if added, fails clearly and points to the exact issues missing legends.
  • The audit treats GitHub issue labels as tracker metadata and docs frontmatter as evidence metadata.
  • The command does not mutate labels unless explicitly asked to do so.
