# Dev Log: Documentation Updates and Verification
**Date:** 2026-05-20

## Task Overview
The goal of this task was to review all documentation in the repository, compare it to the codebase's true behavior as established by recent feature releases and fixes, restructure the documentation coherently, and remove stale data.

## Documentation Files Read & Investigated
*   `README.md`
*   `AGENTS.md`
*   `Documentation/System_Architecture.md`
*   `Documentation/Feature_Deals_Dashboard.md`
*   `Documentation/Dashboard_Specification.md`
*   `Documentation/Data_Logic.md`
*   `Documentation/System_State.md`
*   `Documentation/INFERRED_PRICE_LOGIC.md`
*   Recent files in `Dev_Logs/`

## Documentation Files Modified
*   **`Documentation/INFERRED_PRICE_LOGIC.md`**: Restructured the "Safe Fallback" removal block to integrate the absolute hard ceiling safety logic (`> $1500`) directly into the Current Principle section, removing the feeling of tacked-on patches.
*   **`Documentation/System_State.md`**: Rewrote the "Inferred True Sales Logic" paragraph. The original text was a series of incremental additions. It has been restructured into a clean two-point rule system defining how prices are validated (requiring at least 1 sale) and how they are capped (the $1,500 limit).
*   **`README.md`**: Updated the "Last Updated" date to `May 20, 2026 (v3.8 System Architecture & Mentorship Updates)` to indicate that the core documentation files align with the current date and system features.

## Documentation Files Reviewed (No Modifications Required)
The following files were explicitly read and analyzed but intentionally left unmodified because their content was already highly accurate and reflected recent codebase changes without the need for refactoring:
*   **`AGENTS.md`**: Already correctly lists the `WSGIApplicationGroup` fix, the centralized `get_db_connection` changes, and the Prime Picks `365-day average` and `Dual Strategy Framing` concepts in sections 7.10 and 7.11.
*   **`Documentation/System_Architecture.md`**: Already accurately detailed the centralized helper for database connections, the Apache `mod_wsgi` C-extension deadlocks, and the Agent's Choice Two-Pass Pipeline.
*   **`Documentation/Feature_Deals_Dashboard.md`**: Accurately describes the Pass 1 / Pass 2 pipeline logic for the Prime Picks filter and the backend caching strategy.
*   **`Documentation/Data_Logic.md`**: Correctly specifies that the deduplication logic compares current counts against `Used_Offer_Count_365_days_avg`.
*   **`Documentation/Dashboard_Specification.md`**: Continues to be accurate to the UI's table constraints and configurations.

## Task Status
**Successful.** The documentation has been thoroughly audited and selectively refactored to serve as a clean source of truth for the system's current logic.
