T-RV1F-ground-approach-file-citations

Status: closed/superseded · Impact: medium · Complexity: small

Goal

Close a gap surfaced on T-1TA2-repeatable-sections-as-collections in https://github.com/sksizer/markdown-contract: /sdlc:task-auto-define should ground the ## Approach file citations it writes against the target codebase, so a synthesized spec points at the real edit site instead of a plausible-but-wrong path.

task-auto-define writes the task spec’s ## Approach file citations from the task’s prose without grounding them against the codebase. On T-1TA2 the Approach cited declarative/schema.ts for the DSL change, but the section-structure DSL actually compiles in declarative/body.ts (schema.ts is the value-schema Zod compiler); the readiness gate’s path-claim resolver flagged the abbreviated citations and the true edit site only surfaced on reading the code. Auto-define should resolve each cited path against the repo and prefer the module that actually contains the named responsibility, so specs point at the real edit site.
