+
+# Ingress core deletion plan
+
+The ingress refactor is not healthy while it adds thousands of net lines. Core
+centralization only counts when bundled plugin production code gets smaller and
+old third-party SDK compatibility is quarantined to SDK/core shims.
+
+Desired runtime shape:
+
+```text
+bundled plugin event
+  -> extract platform facts locally
+  -> resolve shared ingress once when facts are available
+  -> branch on generic ingress projections/outcomes
+  -> perform platform side effects locally
+
+old third-party helper
+  -> SDK compatibility shim
+  -> shared ingress-compatible projection where possible
+  -> old return shape preserved
+```
+
+Bundled plugins should not translate ingress back into local `AccessResult`,
+`GroupAccessDecision`, `CommandAuthDecision`, `DmCommandAccess`, or
+`{ allowed, reasonCode }` shapes unless that type is public plugin API.
+
+## Budget
+
+Measured against the PR merge-base with `origin/main`, including untracked
+files.
+
+```text
+merge-base            1671e7532adb
+
+current:
+core production       +3,922 / -546    = +3,376
+docs                  +601 / -17       = +584
+other                 +145 / -2        = +143
+plugin production     +4,148 / -5,388  = -1,240
+tests                 +2,326 / -2,414  = -88
+total                 +11,142 / -8,367 = +2,775
+
+required:
+plugin production     <= -1,500
+core production       <= +1,500, or paid for by larger plugin deletion
+tests                 <= +1,000
+total                 <= +2,000
+
+stretch:
+plugin production     <= -2,500
+core production       <= +1,200
+total                 <= 0
+```
+
+Minimum remaining cleanup:
+
+```text
+plugin production     needs 260 more net deleted lines
+total                 needs 775 more net deleted lines
+core production       still +1,876 over standalone budget, unless paid down by plugin deletion
+```
+
+Comment-only deletion does not count as cleanup. The previous budget pass was
+too generous because it included restored QQBot explanatory comments; this
+document tracks executable/docs/test code movement only.
+
+Re-measure after each cleanup wave:
+
+```sh
+base=$(git merge-base HEAD origin/main)
+git diff --shortstat "$base"
+git diff --numstat "$base" -- src/channels/message-access src/plugin-sdk extensions | sort -nr -k1 | head -n 80
+pnpm lint:extensions:no-deprecated-channel-access
+```
+
+## Diagnosis
+
+The first pass added the shared ingress kernel, then left too much plugin-local
+authorization beside it:
+
+```text
+platform facts
+  -> shared ingress state and decision
+  -> plugin-local DTO or legacy projection
+  -> plugin-local if/else ladder
+```
+
+That duplicates the model. Core production grew by about 3,376 lines, while
+bundled plugin production is 1,240 lines smaller. That is better than the first
+pass, but it is not inside the minimum budget. The fix remains deletion-first:
+
+- delete plugin DTOs that only rename ingress fields
+- delete tests that only assert wrapper shape
+- add core helpers only when the same patch deletes bundled plugin code
+- keep old SDK compatibility in SDK/core shims only
+- repack core after wrapper deletion exposes the stable shape
+
+## Hotspots
+
+Positive bundled production files that still need to shrink:
+
+```text
+extensions/telegram/src/ingress.ts                        +126
+extensions/discord/src/monitor/dm-command-auth.ts         +101
+extensions/signal/src/monitor/access-policy.ts             +92
+extensions/feishu/src/policy.ts                            +85
+extensions/slack/src/monitor/auth.ts                       +64
+extensions/googlechat/src/monitor-access.ts                +59
+extensions/nextcloud-talk/src/inbound.ts                   +51
+extensions/matrix/src/matrix/monitor/access-state.ts       +49
+extensions/irc/src/inbound.ts                              +44
+extensions/imessage/src/monitor/inbound-processing.ts      +36
+extensions/qa-channel/src/inbound.ts                       +34
+extensions/qqbot/src/bridge/sdk-adapter.ts                 +33
+extensions/tlon/src/monitor/utils.ts                       +30
+extensions/twitch/src/access-control.ts                    +22
+extensions/qqbot/src/engine/commands/slash-command-handler.ts +20
+extensions/telegram/src/bot-handlers.runtime.ts            +19
+```
+
+The branch is not inside the minimum budget yet. The remaining review-relevant
+work should delete repeated authorization flow, turn scaffolding, or wrapper
+tests before adding another core abstraction.
+
+## Current Code Read
+
+The healthy core seam already exists in `src/channels/message-access/runtime.ts`:
+it owns identity adapters, effective allowlists, pairing-store reads, route
+descriptors, command/event presets, access groups, and the final resolved
+`ResolvedChannelMessageIngress` projection.
+
+The remaining growth is mostly plugin glue layered on top of that seam:
+
+- `extensions/telegram/src/ingress.ts` wraps core decisions in Telegram-specific
+  command/event helpers, then call sites still pass precomputed normalized
+  allowlists and owner lists.
+- `extensions/discord/src/monitor/dm-command-auth.ts`,
+  `extensions/feishu/src/policy.ts`, `extensions/googlechat/src/monitor-access.ts`,
+  and `extensions/matrix/src/matrix/monitor/access-state.ts` still keep
+  local policy DTOs or legacy decision names beside ingress.
+- `extensions/signal/src/monitor/access-policy.ts` correctly keeps Signal
+  identity normalization and pairing replies local, but still has a wrapper
+  seam that should collapse into direct ingress consumption.
+- `extensions/nextcloud-talk/src/inbound.ts`, `extensions/irc/src/inbound.ts`,
+  `extensions/qa-channel/src/inbound.ts`, `extensions/zalo/src/monitor.ts`, and
+  `extensions/zalouser/src/monitor.ts` still repeat route/envelope/turn
+  assembly that can move to shared turn helpers outside the ingress kernel.
+
+Conclusion: moving more code into core is only useful if it deletes these
+plugin wrapper layers in the same patch. Adding another abstraction while
+leaving wrapper returns in place repeats the mistake.
+
+## Boundary
+
+Core owns generic policy:
+
+- allowlist normalization and matching
+- access-group expansion and diagnostics
+- pairing-store DM allowlist reads
+- route, sender, command, event, and activation gates
+- admission mapping: dispatch, drop, skip, observe, pairing
+- redacted state, decisions, diagnostics, and SDK compatibility projections
+- reusable generic descriptors for identity, route, command, event, activation,
+  and outcomes
+
+Plugins own transport facts and side effects:
+
+- webhook/socket/request authenticity
+- platform identity extraction and API lookups
+- channel-specific policy defaults
+- pairing challenge delivery, replies, acks, reactions, typing, media, history,
+  setup, doctor, status, logs, and user-facing copy
+
+Core must stay channel-agnostic: no Discord, Slack, Telegram, Matrix, room,
+guild, space, API client, or plugin-specific default in
+`src/channels/message-access`.
+
+## Acceptance Rule
+
+Every new core helper must delete bundled plugin production code immediately.
+
+```text
+one bundled caller        reject; keep plugin-local
+two bundled callers       accept only if plugin production LOC drops
+three or more callers     plugin deletion must be at least 2x new core LOC
+compatibility-only helper SDK/core shim only; never bundled hot paths
+```
+
+Stop and redesign if:
+
+- plugin production LOC increases
+- tests grow faster than production shrinks
+- a bundled hot path returns a DTO that only renames `ResolvedChannelMessageIngress`
+- a core helper needs a channel id, platform object, API client, or
+  channel-specific default
+
+## Work Packages
+
+1. Freeze the budget.
+   Put LOC in the PR, keep deprecated-ingress lint green, and include before/after
+   LOC in cleanup commits.
+
+2. Delete thin DTO seams.
+   Replace plugin-local wrapper returns with `ResolvedChannelMessageIngress`,
+   `senderAccess`, `commandAccess`, `routeAccess`, or `ingress` directly. Start
+   with QQBot, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Signal, Feishu, Matrix, iMessage, and
+   Tlon. Delete wrapper-shape tests; keep behavior tests.
+
+3. Add outcome classification only with deletions.
+   A generic classifier may expose `dispatch`, `pairing-required`,
+   `skip-activation`, `drop-command`, `drop-route`, `drop-sender`, and
+   `drop-ingress`. It must derive from the decision graph, not reason strings,
+   and migrate at least three plugins in the same patch.
+
+4. Add route descriptor builders only with deletions.
+   Generic route target and route sender helpers are acceptable only if they
+   immediately shrink route-heavy plugins: Google Chat, IRC, Microsoft Teams,
+   Nextcloud Talk, Mattermost, Slack, Zalo, and Zalo Personal.
+
+5. Add command/event presets only with deletions.
+   Centralize text-command, native-command, callback, and origin-subject shapes.
+   Command consumers must default to unauthorized when no command gate ran;
+   events must not start pairing.
+
+6. Add identity presets only where they remove boilerplate.
+   Stable-id, stable-id-plus-aliases, phone/e164, and multi-identifier helpers
+   are allowed when raw values enter only adapter input and redacted state keeps
+   opaque ids/counts.
+
+7. Share authorized turn assembly.
+   Outside the ingress kernel, remove repeated route/envelope/context/reply
+   scaffolding from QA Channel, IRC, Nextcloud Talk, Zalo, and Zalo Personal.
+   Core may own route/session/envelope/dispatch sequencing; plugins keep
+   delivery and channel-specific context.
+
+8. Quarantine compatibility.
+   Deprecated SDK helpers stay source-compatible, but bundled hot paths must not
+   import deprecated ingress or command-auth facades. Compatibility tests should
+   use fake third-party plugins, not bundled-plugin internals.
+
+9. Repack core.
+   After wrapper deletion, collapse one-use modules, remove unused exports, move
+   compatibility projection out of hot paths, and keep focused tests for identity,
+   route, command/event, activation, access groups, and compatibility shims.
+
+## Deletion Waves
+
+Run these in order. Each wave must lower bundled production LOC.
+
+1. Wrapper collapse, expected plugin delta: -400 to -600.
+   Replace plugin-local `resolveXAccess`, `resolveXCommandAccess`, and
+   `accessFromIngress` result types with direct reads from
+   `ResolvedChannelMessageIngress`. First targets: Discord DM command auth,
+   Feishu policy, Matrix access state, Telegram ingress, Signal access policy,
+   QQBot SDK adapter.
+
+2. Shared outcome helpers, expected plugin delta: -200 to -350.
+   Add one generic classifier only if it deletes repeated
+   `shouldBlockControlCommand`, pairing, activation skip, route block, and sender
+   block ladders across at least three plugins.
+
+3. Route descriptor builders, expected plugin delta: -200 to -350.
+   Move repeated route target and route sender descriptor assembly into core
+   helpers. First targets: Google Chat, IRC, Microsoft Teams, Nextcloud Talk,
+   Mattermost, Slack, Zalo, Zalo Personal.
+
+4. Turn assembly sharing, expected plugin delta: -250 to -450.
+   Use common route/session/envelope/dispatch sequencing for simple inbound
+   plugins. First targets: QA Channel, IRC, Nextcloud Talk, Zalo, Zalo Personal.
+
+5. Core repack, expected core delta: -300 to -700.
+   After plugins consume runtime projections directly, delete one-use modules,
+   merge tiny files back into `runtime.ts` or focused siblings, and keep SDK
+   compatibility files separate from bundled hot paths.
+
+6. Test pruning, expected test delta: -300 to -600.
+   Delete tests that only assert removed wrapper shapes. Keep behavior tests for
+   command denial, group fallback, origin-subject matching, activation skip,
+   access groups, pairing, and redaction.
+
+Expected minimum landing shape after these waves:
+
+```text
+plugin production     <= -1,500
+core production       about +1,800 to +2,200 before final repack
+tests                 <= +500
+total                 <= +2,000
+```
+
+## Do Not Move
+
+Do not move platform config defaults, setup UX, doctor/fix copy, API lookups,
+Slack owner-presence checks, Matrix alias/verification handling, Telegram
+callback parsing, command syntax parsing, native command registration, reaction
+payload parsing, pairing replies, command replies, acks, typing, media, history,
+or logs.
+
+## Verification
+
+Targeted local loop:
+
+```sh
+pnpm lint:extensions:no-deprecated-channel-access
+pnpm test src/channels/message-access/message-access.test.ts src/plugin-sdk/channel-ingress-runtime.test.ts src/plugin-sdk/access-groups.test.ts
+pnpm test extensions/<changed-plugin>/src/...
+pnpm plugin-sdk:api:check
+pnpm config:docs:check
+pnpm check:docs
+git diff --check
+```
+
+Use Testbox for broad changed gates/full-suite proof once the LOC trend is
+inside budget.
+
+Each work package records:
+
+- before/after LOC by category
+- deleted plugin wrappers
+- new core helper LOC, if any
+- targeted tests run
+- remaining hotspot list
+
+## Exit Criteria
+
+- bundled production imports no deprecated channel-access or command-auth facades
+- compatibility code is isolated to SDK/core seams
+- bundled plugins consume ingress projections or generic outcomes directly
+- plugin production LOC is at least 1,500 net negative against `origin/main`
+- core production LOC is `<= +1,500`, or any excess is paid for while total
+  stays `<= +2,000`
+- representative tests cover redaction, route, command/event, activation,
+  access-group, and channel-specific fallback behavior
