`docs/reference.md` is the single source of truth and gets touched on every API
change, yet 40 of its 56 `notify.rs` anchors had drifted onto a closing brace,
a doc comment, or the wrong symbol - including one whole line pointing at
`revoke_admin_session` where a jmap dedup key is claimed - while
`scripts/docs_check/audit_anchors.py` reported every one of them clean. Its own
docstring says it only checks that the target line exists and is non-blank.
Remove the anchors rather than correcting them: fixing 40 numbers creates a
treadmill that re-drifts on the next unrelated edit to the same file, and the
file's own convention already called the line number "not an identity". Symbol
names are kept everywhere, which is what the gates and the readers need.
`docs/deployment.md` keeps its line numbers - it is an operator runbook read
mid-incident - and the five anchors that were wrong there are corrected.
docs/reference.md
- Drop the false "Verified against commit b2dbe7c" header claim; the anchors
never matched that commit. Replace it with the design decision and the
reason, and drop the "Only this file carries line numbers" convention that
`deployment.md` was already violating.
- Remove all `*.rs:NNN` and bare `:NNN` anchors, keeping symbol names.
- Fix a wrong fact the anchors were hiding: the session issued by
`POST /api/admin/session` is a fresh CSPRNG token generated per call, not a
"fixed 32-byte hex secret derived from admin_token". The anchor pointed at
`bootstrap`'s body.
docs/deployment.md
- `retry_or_dlq` call site 481 -> 479; `lock:reconcile` acquire 289 -> 290
(twice); heartbeat `renew_lock` 302 -> 303 (twice).
AGENTS.md
- Record the convention: symbol names in docs, line numbers only in
`docs/deployment.md`, plus the audit script's limits so nobody reads its
output as "the anchors are correct".
scripts/docs_check/audit_anchor_semantics.py (new)
- Independent script, not wired into `run_all.sh`, always `exit 0`, prints
candidates only. It flags an anchor whose target line has no relation to the
symbol the doc claims. Candidates go 20 -> 5 and `reference.md` disappears
from the list entirely. It cannot catch a one- or two-line off-by-one - that
still needs a human - and a bare `:NNN` shorthand is not a matchable anchor.
Gates: GATE-DOCS 6/6 clean (ANCHOR AUDIT 324 -> 129 refs, 0 errors).
`src/` is untouched, so the test baseline stands at 86 passed / 0 failed /
2 ignored.
