Summary

• Add deterministic, report-only XMLTV comparison with same-channel findings, cross-channel event correlations, taxonomy-normalized profiles, freshness, and provenance.
• Add contextual alias proposals and revisioned knowledge-state plans with explicit apply, import, export, and restore workflows; scheduled comparison emits plans but never applies them.
• Add opt-in GuideComparison to the existing scheduled refresh path. It consumes validated source results and eligible fresh cache payloads without another acquisition.
• Bound scheduled XMLTV parsing and candidate generation; reject unsafe free text and sensitive report fields; use handle-relative no-follow knowledge-store operations.

Evidence

• Invoke-Pester -Path tests/unit -Output Normal: 935 passed, 0 failed, across 81 files.
• Focused regressions cover parser programme limits, 256/257 observation and candidate boundaries, alias evidence integrity, embedded UNC and quoted-credential rejection, inactive-context suppression, and stale report invalidation.
• Independent final functional review: PASS.
• Independent final security review: PASS.
• Architecture and docs/user/ limitations documentation updated.
• gitleaks is unavailable locally; hosted secret scanning remains pending with CI.

Required Checks

• Relevant tests pass locally.
• CI is pending on this draft PR.
• Repository and user documentation updated.
• ADR/contracts reviewed; no ADR change required.
• Independent functional and security reviews completed (PASS).
• Regression and bug sweeps completed.
• Release impact reviewed; this is not a release.

Risk

The comparer remains report-only. It does not acquire sources, merge channels, publish guides, or mutate accepted state. Scheduled comparison is opt-in, uses exact approved bindings, fails closed above documented limits, and leaves all generated knowledge plans unapplied for explicit review.

Formatting correction: commit 03e40ea changes only Prettier formatting in the five schemas identified by run 37148029478. Prettier 3.9.6 targeted check passed; Validate-ConfigSchemas passed; focused Pester passed 76/76 across KnowledgeState, ScheduledGuideComparison, ScheduledRefreshPlanner, ScheduledRefreshRun, and SourceRefreshExecutor; parsed JSON values matched HEAD for all five files; git diff --check passed. Run 37148029478 failed at head 9c639b0 on that formatting step (secret-scan passed). No hosted result is claimed for 03e40ea; exact-head CI follow-through remains with the owner. PR stays draft and behind main; no rebase or merge.
