JD Index Audit — Canonical IA Spec vs Actual Disk Structure

q2x8

Scope: /Users/mellow-26/container/TAC-GKOS Method: Cross-referenced JDex Master (00.00), IA doc (2026-05-18), CLAUDE.md (root), and actual on-disk directory/file counts.


1. Canonical Sources

Three documents define the JD structure:

SourceLocationRole
JDex Master00-09 SYS/00 GKOS Registry/00.00 JDex Master.mdCategory-by-category directory — the canonical JD map
IA Document00-09 SYS/05 Registries/2026-05-18-ka-vault-information-architecture.md10-domain model with standard zero allocations
JD Standard Zeros Doctrine00-09 SYS/00 GKOS Registry/00.00A JD Standard Zeros Doctrine.md.00-.09 reserved rules

The JDex Master and IA Document are mostly consistent with each other. Both define the same 10 domains and standard zero pattern. Minor difference: the IA doc section 8.1 lists standard zero allocations per domain; the JDex Master lists active category numbers per domain.

3. Non-JD Directories (Orphan Content)

These directories at the vault root have no JD number prefix and are outside the canonical structure:

DirectoryFiles (.md)Notes
00 Drafts0Empty — maybe intended as a Drafts Folder Pattern home
01 GKOS Inbox33 .md + 54 other = 87 totalActive capture zone (per CLAUDE.md conventions)
90 ORGANIZE9 .mdLegacy PARA Organize — subfolder "Templates" contains 9 files
Journal468 .mdMassive reflective journal archive (daily/weekly/monthly/yearly)
Meetings2 .mdMeeting notes outside JD structure
Oops0Empty
_system81 .md + 62 other = 143 totalGemini Scribe sessions, agent logs, clippings, system artifacts
output0Empty
Semantic Todoist Sync3 .mdTodoist sync content
vault-operator6 .mdVault operator data
skill-observations3 .mdSkill observation logs

Additionally, these hidden/system directories:

DirectoryContentsNotes
.claude/15 filesSettings, commands, skills
.obsidian/Obsidian vault configStandard
.trash/OS-level trashIgnore
.git/Git repoStandard
.obsidian-agent/Agent configAgent tooling
.smart-env/Smart env config

4. Root-Level Files (Outside JD Structure)

26 root-level files have no JD home

These include 7 .md/.canvas files, 9 .html exports, 6 .pdf documents, 2 .pptx/.csv, and various config/lock files:

5. Underutilized JD Categories (≤2 .md files)

These are JD slots with minimal content — candidates for consolidation or attention:

6. Summary of Issues

Critical Issues

  1. Category 22 SETT.LIFE is MISSING — Defined in the JDex Master but has no on-disk directory. SETT.LIFE content appears to be merged into "21 24W + SETT" directory, which mixes two separate categories.

  2. 63.11 - NOTES Clippings in BUILD area — A directory prefixed "63" (LIVE domain) sitting under 80-89 BUILD. Either the directory's JD prefix is wrong, or it's in the wrong area.

  3. 85 Automation & Scripting is a duplicate — Exists alongside "85 Python & Scripting" in BUILD. One has 4 files, the other has 0.

Moderate Issues

  1. META area has 4 extra directories (06 Lookups, 07 Classes, 08 Embeds, 09 Archive) not listed in the JDex Master category table. These exceed the defined 6 categories (00-05).

  2. 00 Vault-Log in ARCHIVE — Uses "00" prefix, which is META's range, sitting under 90-99 ARCHIVE.

  3. 92.9 Template Graveyard — Uses a .9 subaddress instead of category 92. Templates are at category 92 in the spec, but on disk they're at 92.9.

  4. Root directory has 26 unclassified files — HTML exports, PDFs, config files, media, and operational files (.md, .canvas, .csv, .json) with no JD home.

Minor Issues

  1. Non-JD non-hidden directories (01 GKOS Inbox, 00 Drafts, 90 ORGANIZE, Journal, Meetings, _system, output, vault-operator, skill-observations, Semantic Todoist Sync) contain substantial content (especially Journal: 468 files, _system: 81 .md files, 01 GKOS Inbox: 33 .md files) outside the JD framework.

  2. 3 empty "Untitled Folder" debris in META.

  3. Category name discrepancies — "01 About This Vault" vs spec "01 CLAUDE & AI Config"; "05 Registries" vs spec "05 Playbooks"; "32 Writing" vs spec "32 Writing & Essays".

  4. 40 Topics — Category 40 (the area-management zero-category) has 216 files but isn't listed as a category in the JDex Master.
