# Audita Configuration
## Scope
This document defines the supported versioned YAML configuration model and runtime precedence behavior.
## Supported file version
Current supported config file version:
- `version: 1`
Validation rules:
- missing `version` fails;
- unsupported version fails;
- unknown YAML fields fail (strict decoding).
## Config path resolution
For `audita process` and `audita config print-effective`, path resolution order is:
1. `--config <path>`
2. `AUDITA_CONFIG`
3. `/usr/local/etc/audita/config.yml` (if present)
4. `/etc/audita/config.yml` (if present)
Missing-path behavior:
- missing `--config` path is an error;
- missing `AUDITA_CONFIG` path is an error;
- missing both default paths is non-fatal.
## Effective precedence
`audita process` effective precedence:
1. defaults
2. file config
3. environment overrides
4. CLI overrides
`audita config print-effective` uses:
1. defaults
2. file config
3. environment overrides
`audita config validate` intentionally uses file-only validation:
1. defaults
2. file config
Environment overrides are not applied in `config validate`.
## Supported top-level YAML fields
```yaml
version: 1
pipeline:
modules: [glossary, homophones, glossary, spoken_word, grammar]

diagnostics:

retention: auto
```
## Module and output-schema validation
`pipeline.modules` keys are validated against the built-in supported module catalog.
Supported module keys:
- `glossary`
- `homophones`
- `spoken_word`
- `grammar`
Repeated supported module keys are allowed.
`output.schema` is validated against the built-in output schema catalog.
Supported output schema keys:
- `bare-segments`
- `audita-v1`
Unknown module keys and unknown output schema keys fail validation.
## Duration field parsing
Duration-like fields support:
- numeric seconds (for example `120`, `3.5`)
- duration strings (for example `120s`, `2m`)
LLM timeout duration strings must resolve to whole seconds.
## Secret handling
Use `api_key_env` fields for secrets:
- `llm.proposal.api_key_env`
- `llm.validation.api_key_env`
These fields store environment variable names, not secret values.
Resolved secret values are redacted from:
- `audita config print-effective` output;
- diagnostics `effective-config.json`;
- report and diagnostics payloads.
## Commands
Validate a file config:
```sh
audita config validate --config ./audita.yml
```
Print redacted effective config:
```sh
audita config print-effective --config ./audita.yml
```
## Compatibility notes
Legacy compatibility flags and environment aliases remain available where implemented, but the stable configuration surface is the versioned YAML model described above.

# Audita Development Workflow
# Moved: Development Workflow
## Scope
This document defines the canonical contributor workflow and engineering conventions for this repository.
The canonical contributor workflow now lives at [`docs/policy/development.md`](policy/development.md).
## Workflow
1. Start from a clean understanding of scope and constraints.
2. Make focused changes that preserve existing public behavior unless behavior change is explicitly intended.
3. Run targeted tests for touched packages.
4. Run `go test ./...` before finalizing substantial changes.
5. Update affected documentation so it describes current behavior only.
## Engineering conventions
- Keep module packages separate: `glossary`, `homophones`, `spoken_word`, `grammar`.
- Prefer narrow shared helpers and catalogs over broad abstractions.
- Preserve diagnostics artifact naming and report field contracts unless intentionally changed.
- Preserve CLI/config precedence semantics unless intentionally changed.
- Treat stable validator keys, prompt identifiers, and output-schema keys as contract surfaces.
## Configuration and runtime expectations
- `audita process` precedence is defaults -> file -> env -> CLI.
- `audita config validate` validates file config merged onto defaults only.
- `audita config print-effective` includes environment overrides and prints redacted JSON.
## Testing expectations
- Add tests for new behavior and for bug fixes.
- Keep deterministic fixtures stable.
- Do not reduce existing parity, release-fixture, subprocess, or module-specific coverage without equivalent replacement.
## Commit discipline
- Keep commits scoped and reviewable.
- Avoid mixing unrelated refactors with behavior changes.
- Use clear plain-English commit messages.

# Audita Subprocess Operations
# Moved: Subprocess Integration
This document describes how parent processes should invoke `audita process` safely in production orchestration.
The canonical subprocess integration guide now lives at [`docs/integrations/subprocess.md`](../integrations/subprocess.md).
## Recommended command form
Use explicit file outputs for orchestrated runs:
```sh
audita process <transcript.json> \
--transcript-description "Brief context that may help resolve ambiguous terms." \
--glossary <glossary.yaml> \
--output <output-transcript.json> \
--report-json <report.json>
```
Additional flags that may be situationally appropriate:
- `--config <path>` to select an explicit versioned config file.
- `--output-schema <bare-segments|audita-v1>` to select transcript output shape.
- `--work-dir <dir>` to control diagnostics location.
- `--work-dir-retention <always|auto|never>` to control retained run directories.
- `--total-llm-concurrency`, `--proposal-llm-concurrency`, and `--validation-llm-concurrency` when orchestration needs to set explicit LLM throughput controls.
- `--modules ...` only when intentionally overriding the default sequence.
For config-driven orchestration, validate config files in CI/preflight:
```sh
audita config validate --config <path>
```
## Stdout behavior
- With `--output`: stdout is expected to be empty on success.
- Without `--output`: stdout contains transcript JSON only on success.
- Report JSON is never written to stdout.
## Stderr behavior
- Success path should be quiet or minimal human-readable logs.
- Failure path writes concise human-readable errors.
- When a diagnostics run directory exists, failure stderr includes its path.
- Prompt/response diagnostic payloads are not streamed to stderr.
## Output file behavior
- `--output` writes transcript JSON in the selected output schema to the provided path.
- Output write failures return nonzero and surface actionable errors.
- The command does not silently ignore output write errors.
## Report JSON behavior
- `--report-json` writes a machine-readable process report to the requested path.
- Run-directory `report.json` is written independently under diagnostics.
- Best-effort failure reports are emitted when possible without masking the primary failure.
- Report write failures return nonzero with clear stderr messaging.
- Report diagnostics metadata references run-directory artifacts including utilization diagnostics and correction ledger paths when available.
## Diagnostics directory behavior
- Each run creates (when possible) a per-run diagnostics directory.
- Typical artifacts include transcript, normalization, chunking, invocation, effective config, LLM diagnostics, `utilization-diagnostics.json`, `correction-ledger.json`, `report.json`, and `error.log` on failure.
- Failed runs retain diagnostics.
- Under `auto` retention, successful runs with skipped/rejected corrections are retained; clean successful runs may be removed.
## Exit codes
- `0`: success.
- Nonzero: failure (input/schema/config/module/LLM/runtime/output/report/diagnostics errors).
Treat any nonzero as a failed subprocess invocation.
## Timeout and cancellation
- Runtime operations propagate context cancellation and request timeouts through LLM/scheduler paths.
- On cancellation or timeout, the process exits nonzero and should not hang.
- If diagnostics were initialized before failure, failure artifacts remain available for debugging.
## Secret redaction expectations
API keys and configured secret values are redacted from:
- reports (`--report-json` and run-dir `report.json`);
- diagnostics artifacts (including effective config and LLM interaction artifacts);
- surfaced adapter/runtime errors;
- test fixtures and regression outputs.
Parent-process logs should still avoid printing raw environment variables.
## Parent-process pipe guidance
To avoid deadlocks in orchestrators:
- always read both stdout and stderr concurrently when invoking as a subprocess;
- prefer file outputs (`--output`, `--report-json`) for machine workflows;
- treat stderr as human-readable diagnostics, not structured data;
- parse structured results from output/report files.
For Go callers, prefer `exec.CommandContext` with explicit timeout/cancellation and buffered/streamed readers for both pipes.
