# Project State

## Project Reference

See: .planning/PROJECT.md (updated 2026-05-08)

**Core value:** Researchers always know what papers they have, what state those papers are in, and whether each paper is reliably usable by AI with traceable fulltext, figures, notes, and source links.
**Current focus:** Phase 56 — Stop the Bleeding

## Current Position

Phase: 57 of 60 (Contract Layer)
Plan: 0 of 4 in current phase
Status: Ready to execute
Last activity: 2026-05-09 — Phase 57 plans created (4 plans, 12 tasks, 2 waves)

Progress: [░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░] 0%

## Accumulated Context

### Decisions

Decisions are logged in PROJECT.md Key Decisions table.
Recent decisions affecting current work:

- [v2.1]: Incremental extraction from sync.py — adapters first, then SyncService, keeping sync.py as thin shell. No full rewrite.
- [v2.1]: Dual JSON output during contract transition — old format + new PFResult side-by-side until 2 release cycles of stability.
- [v2.1]: Plugin keeps fallback to direct index reading during PFResult transition — removed after 2 stable release cycles.
- [v2.1]: Tests must not be modified to pass if code is broken — tests verify contracts, not implementation convenience.

### Pending Todos
