DR-087 — The private docs-site IS citable for authorised consumers; provenance is admitted via an additive docs-site anchor scheme (amends DR-086b)
Status: accepted · S489 (owner ratification, id-163 {163.20}; amends the DR-086b docs-site half)
DR-086b ruled the private docs-site never a citation source. Owner ruling (S489) reverses
that half: the docs-site IS a valid citation source for authorised consumers —
access control is the safeguard, not non-citability (provenance to the originating page is
needed for human curation and producer re-runs). Scope: a docs-site citation is admitted
only into the platform-owned, access-controlled system-baseline lane, never a
public/client-owned bundle; DR-086b’s public-canonical citation-base ruling is otherwise
unchanged.
Mechanism (additive — the public git-blob path is byte-identical): git-pinned blob URLs to
the private docs-site repo, via AUTHORISED_DOCS_SITE_BLOB_BASE /
build_docs_site_citation / is_docs_site_citation in
canonical:scripts/cocoindex_pipeline/producer/resource_uri.py (landed 8aa52164;
DR-025’s reference-concept boundary unchanged). The S498 orphan-recovery history of this
mechanism: retro S498.
