The maintainer's live scan (19,908 files, scope "new") reported 4,677 files
under Needs review, but the queue held 10,232 items: every file the strict
resolver found ambiguous was queued, including the ones the legacy
browser-parser fallback then linked (all sampled "added" rows) and the ones
already linked to a known prompt (135 of 200 sampled "known" rows).
A file is now queued only when its final outcome is ambiguous and unlinked:
the resolver finds it ambiguous, the fallback links nothing and no saved row
links it already. An ambiguous file that a saved row links is reported as
unchanged ("Already linked to its prompt"), not as Needs review.
The queue heals itself. After each batch, the scan removes the pending items
of every listed file (read, or skipped as known) that a saved row now links.
The monitor does the same for each ambiguous output it links, and never
queues one. Only an undecided item is removed (pending, revision 0, no
decision row), so a decision is never deleted or changed and the schema
needs no new state.
The scan job's scope.review_items now counts this scan's files that are in
the pending queue after it, new or already there, so it agrees with the
review group's ambiguous rows and with the queue total. review_added and
review_settled are new, and the log gains "already in Needs review" and
"left Needs review · now linked" lines. A duplicate whose item is decided is
reported as "decided" and is not counted.
