Development record
Citation-integrity conventions exist only in one user's local agent memory, not in the record or the cite/ingest surfaces — any other agent building a references baseline in a managed repo would repeat both corrected mistakes: (1) admitting entries with initial-only author names plus a to-be-checked caveat when the entry's own URL/DOI would resolve the full names in one fetch (caveats are for genuinely unreachable facts, not skipped lookups); (2) taking author names from anywhere but the publisher's CURRENT record — a published name that has changed must never be reverted to the former name (the maintainer flagged a live near-miss hard). Both belong in the product: a convention note for docs cite / ingest now, and a validator rung on the ingest metadata extraction later

Grounds
- pursued: an agent ingesting a source now meets both rules on the page it follows; shown wrong if a reference is admitted with an initials-only caveat or a reverted name after reading it
