#DimensionStatev2 → v3 DeltaEvidence
3Knowledge accuracy⚠ indeterminate (0.5)unchangedSupabase MCP not available this session — validate_product_knowledge() could not run. Known residual: claim page at pewsearch/web/src/app/claim/[slug]/page.tsx:622 still shows 'AI Church Chatbot' feature bullet. pewsearch#24 was listed as addressing copy drift, but the file still contains the entry in the current working tree. Either the PR is not yet merged to master, or the change targeted a different element. This is a live copy inconsistency — the pricing page/FAQ correctly disclaim chatbot. Graded indeterminate (not FAIL); P2 remains.
5User docs✅ pass (1.0)0.5 → 1.0help_surface.canonical_source now set to knowledge/products/pewsearch-directory/help.md (knowledge#28). That file exists with last-verified: 2026-04-22 and correct code-files linkage. P1 resolved.

P1 items from v2 have been closed: MailerLite config fixed (knowledge#25), canonical_source wired (knowledge#28), journey attestation stamped (knowledge#29). Residual is only the P2 copy drift. founder_verified 2026-04-22 confirms product serving customers. Grade upgraded from indeterminate to pass.

Punch list (ordered by severity)

P2

  • [P2] Claim page copy still shows "AI Church Chatbot" as Premium featurepewsearch/web/src/app/claim/[slug]/page.tsx line 622: title: 'AI Church Chatbot'. pewsearch#24 was supposed to fix this but the entry persists in the working tree. Requires verification that the PR was merged to master, or a new fix. This creates a false expectation at the exact moment of purchase — visitor sees chatbot promised, buys, and finds no chatbot in the $4.95 plan. Fix: change title to 'Priority Placement' or 'Verified Badge'; remove the MessageCircle icon and 24/7 AI assistant description. Replace with factual Premium feature (e.g., 'Boosted Search Ranking').

  • [P2] Viewports never Playwright-verifiede2e/smoke.spec.ts exists but last_run: null and no CI artifact. No last_break either, so graded indeterminate not fail. But mobile layout has not been end-to-end verified. Low risk for launch; should be scheduled as a next-sprint item.

The v2 → v3 leap was driven entirely by the three knowledge-repo PRs landing: canonical_source wired, MailerLite config aligned, and both critical journeys founder-verified. Ops instrumentation crossed the 60% threshold (45% → 65%), unlocking READY status. The single remaining P2 (claim page chatbot copy) is cosmetically incorrect but does not break the purchase or cause data loss — it overpromises a feature the $4.95 plan does not include.
