Round 7 raised 5 issues; this round addresses all of them and fixes
the underlying causes (not just the comments) where applicable so
they don't get re-flagged in future passes.
Critical:
- verified_count description in SemanticSearchResponse said "unique
documents" but the value is len(verified_results), a chunk count.
Description rewritten to accurately document chunk-level granularity
AND explicitly call out the asymmetry with dropped_count (which
counts unique (doc_id, doc_type) pairs).
- _verify_files false-eviction risk: the round-6 doc-only fix was
re-flagged. Address at the source — widen WebDAVClient.get_file_info
to raise HTTPStatusError on 404 (matching the rest of the client
convention) and reserve None for the genuinely ambiguous
malformed-PROPFIND case. _verify_files now keeps the result on None
(cannot tell whether the file exists) and evicts only on a
definitive HTTPStatusError 404. Tests updated; new test added for
the malformed-XML keep-result path.
Non-critical:
- News verifier semaphore lifetime now explicitly documented: one
slot held for one deduplicated fetch per search is the correct
backpressure behaviour.
- Cross-reference comments in _verify_notes / _verify_deck_cards no
longer claim "Mirrors X" pointing at functions defined later in
the file; now use direction-neutral "parallel implementation in".
- accessible_by_type is mutated by concurrent run_verifier tasks; a
comment explains why this is race-free under anyio's cooperative
multitasking (distinct keys per task, no await between read and
write) so a future reader doesn't add a redundant lock.
- Knock-on: tests/integration/test_rag.py wraps get_file_info in a
try/except for the new contract.
