Six review items raised; four required code changes (#3, #4, #5, #6) and
two were resolved without code changes (#1 audit-only, #2 informational).
* search/verification.py — clarify the granularity asymmetry between the
whole-batch fail-open (structural API failure) and the per-item fail-open
(single bad stored doc_id). Future readers no longer need to derive why
the two paths have different blast radii from the code alone.
* models/semantic.py — `dropped_document_count` description now explicitly
notes that subtracting it from `verified_chunk_count` is not a meaningful
operation, since the two fields count different units (documents vs
chunks). Surfaces the unit mismatch where MCP clients actually see it.
* server/semantic.py — clarify the per-doc_type over-fetch comment so the
N×2 pre-merge Qdrant cost (vs the cross-app branch's 1×2) is explicit
rather than implied by "same 2× over-fetch budget".
* tests/unit/search/test_verification.py — add four new 429 unit tests
(notes/news/files/deck) mirroring the existing 5xx-keeps pattern. Locks
in that `_is_definitive_404_or_403` returns False for 429 so a future
refactor cannot accidentally treat rate-limit responses as permanent
revocations.
Audit confirmation for review item #1: all four `WebDAVClient.get_file_info`
call sites already handle the new `HTTPStatusError`-on-404 contract
(verification.py:156, tests/integration/test_rag.py:139,
tests/unit/client/test_webdav.py:153/190). No silent breakage internal to
this repo.
