# feast - Doramagic AI Context Pack

> Purpose: pre-work context for the user's host AI. This pack does not prove that the project has been installed, run, or validated.

## Project

- canonical_name: `feast-dev/feast`
- capability: The Open Source Feature Store for AI/ML
- expected_user_outcome: The Open Source Feature Store for AI/ML

## Operating Boundaries

- Do not claim that the project has been installed, run, called through an API, or used on local files unless separate evidence proves it.
- Project facts must come from repo evidence, Claim Graph, or explicit source references.
- When a capability is not verified, mark it as unverified instead of completing it as fact.
- publish_status: `publishable`
- blocking_gaps: none

## Doramagic Context Augmentation

The following sections strengthen the repository context for a host AI. Human Manual data is a reading route, and pitfall notes become operating constraints.

## Human Manual Outline

Usage rule: this is only a reading route and salience signal, not factual authority. Concrete claims must still return to repo evidence or Claim Graph.

Host AI hard rules:
- Do not treat page titles, section order, summaries, or importance values as factual project evidence.
- When explaining the Human Manual outline, state that it is only a reading route or salience signal.
- Capability, installation, compatibility, runtime state, and risk claims must cite repo evidence, source paths, or Claim Graph.

## Repo Inspection Evidence

- repo_clone_verified: true
- repo_inspection_verified: true
- repo_commit: `f0c5be8a66f3d3f2c7a6e560b926b25d53f3042f`
- inspected_files: `README.md`, `pyproject.toml`, `docs/README.md`, `docs/SUMMARY.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0001-feature-services.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0002-component-refactor.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0003-on-demand-transformations.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0004-entity-join-key-mapping.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0005-stream-transformations.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0006-kubernetes-operator.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0007-unified-feature-transformations.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0008-feature-view-versioning.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0009-contribution-extensibility.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0010-vector-database-integration.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0011-data-quality-monitoring.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-0012-label-view.md`, `docs/adr/ADR-TEMPLATE.md`, `docs/adr/README.md`, `docs/adr/rfc-feature-view-versioning.md`, `docs/blog/README.md`

Host AI hard rules:
- Without repo_clone_verified=true, do not claim that the source code has been read.
- Without repo_inspection_verified=true, do not write README, docs, or package-file conclusions as facts.
- Without quick_start_verified=true, do not claim that the Quick Start path has run successfully.

## Doramagic Pitfall Constraints

These rules come from Doramagic discovery, validation, or compilation findings. The host AI must treat them as operating constraints, not background notes.

### Constraint 1: Installation risk requires verification

- Trigger: Project evidence flags a installation risk. Review the linked source before relying on this workflow.
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: community_evidence:github | https://github.com/feast-dev/feast/issues/6488
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 2: Capability evidence risk requires verification

- Trigger: README/documentation is current enough for a first validation pass.
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: capability.assumptions | https://github.com/feast-dev/feast
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 3: Maintenance risk requires verification

- Trigger: Project evidence flags a maintenance risk. Review the linked source before relying on this workflow.
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: community_evidence:github | https://github.com/feast-dev/feast/issues/6539
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 4: Maintenance risk requires verification

- Trigger: Project evidence flags a maintenance risk. Review the linked source before relying on this workflow.
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: evidence.maintainer_signals | https://github.com/feast-dev/feast
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 5: Security or permission risk requires verification

- Trigger: no_demo
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: downstream_validation.risk_items | https://github.com/feast-dev/feast
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 6: Security or permission risk requires verification

- Trigger: no_demo
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: risks.scoring_risks | https://github.com/feast-dev/feast
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 7: Maintenance risk requires verification

- Trigger: issue_or_pr_quality=unknown。

- Evidence: evidence.maintainer_signals | https://github.com/feast-dev/feast
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 8: Maintenance risk requires verification

- Trigger: release_recency=unknown。
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: evidence.maintainer_signals | https://github.com/feast-dev/feast
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.
