# DOCS — ARCHITECTURE & INTEGRATION DOCUMENTATION
|
|
|
|
Public `docs/` files now mix three roles:
|
|
|
|
- canonical repository-level policy/current-state docs,
|
|
- architecture/reference docs,
|
|
- and older roadmap/design docs that are still useful but partly historical.
|
|
|
|
Do not assume everything under `docs/` is equally current.
|
|
|
|
For current Red Bear OS status, also read:
|
|
|
|
- `docs/README.md` — canonical docs index + status matrix
|
|
- `docs/07-RED-BEAR-OS-IMPLEMENTATION-PLAN.md` — canonical public implementation plan
|
|
- `local/docs/DESKTOP-STACK-CURRENT-STATUS.md` — current desktop stack build/runtime truth
|
|
- `local/docs/DRM-MODERNIZATION-EXECUTION-PLAN.md` — current DRM-focused execution plan beneath the canonical desktop path
|
|
- `local/docs/QT6-PORT-STATUS.md` — current Qt/KF6 package-level status
|
|
- `local/docs/AMD-FIRST-INTEGRATION.md` — deeper AMD/graphics technical roadmap, useful detail but not the canonical desktop plan
|
|
- `local/docs/WIP-MIGRATION-LEDGER.md` — current WIP ownership status
|
|
- `local/docs/SCRIPT-BEHAVIOR-MATRIX.md` — current script guarantees and non-guarantees
|
|
|

|
## READING RULE
|
|
|
|
When a current-state local document conflicts with an older public roadmap/design file, prefer the
|
|
current local subsystem plan or the canonical public implementation plan.
