Source and Evidence Domain Map

2026-09-30 Core Services Executive Summary Decision

Go for one independent summary before the matrix. The user explicitly requested a simpler reading level while retaining the full comparison. Repeated traversal of 43 functions, four country pages and DSIC detail justifies one executive summary with named S2S/portal/local/unverified indicators. It is a synthesis entry point, not another source register, evidence domain or supplier-availability catalogue. Reciprocal links and an explicit review gate keep it paired with the matrix and supporting pages; no new research programme or source-monitoring automation is implied.

2026-09-29 Follow-Up Suggestions Register Decision

Go for one working suggestions page. The user identified unexplained, unpursued “What Next” items and asked for a shared base of suggestions and harmonised improvements. Repeated traversal between chat recommendations, research priorities, the queue and completed passes now obscures whether work is relevant, overlapping or already done. What Next: Suggestions and Decisions owns suggestion provenance, relevance, scope and disposition; it links to existing evidence gaps and outputs rather than duplicating their contents. Keep Source Register, Evidence Matrix, Evidence Validation Queue and Research Log roles unchanged. This is a planning/work-selection page, not a new evidence domain, request pack or instruction to pursue parked research.

2026-09-29 Urgent-Care Comparison Decision

Extend the existing matrix and country anchors. The requested BaRS/DoS, NHS 24, NHS 111 Wales and NI comparison follows the same function-by-nation traversal. Add a grouped urgent-care section, national implementation detail and links from DSIC/PRSB/adapter models; no new page, evidence-domain layer or map is needed. Distinguish public access, clinical triage, service discovery, referral handoff, booking and GP notification. Keep disputed locality coverage, API availability and devolved reuse gaps in the existing validation queue.

2026-09-29 DSIC-Lens Extension Decision

Extend existing structure. The new question concerns missing functions and actual cross-nation reuse within the UK Core Services Matrix, rather than a new evidence domain. Grouped additions and links to the existing DSIC crosswalk/country pages reduce repeated traversal. No new page, checklist, request pack or map is justified. Keep single-source/interface gaps in the existing queue; preserve the separation between national service evidence, product implementation and user-reported Med IS availability.

This page splits the large source register and evidence matrix into working domains. It does not replace Sources or Evidence Matrix, which remain the canonical source-ID and claim registers.

Use this page to decide which domain page or evidence cluster to read first.

Do not project into UK DSIC or NHS deployment claims.
RAG and project tooling LLM Wiki, Graphify Operational knowledge, generated indexes, graph views, and optional interchange bundles. These are navigation, discovery, or portability layers, not source evidence. Regenerate with npm run kb:update after docs/workflow changes.

Domain Pages

Additional domain pages should be added only when they reduce repeated traversal of the canonical registers. Do not duplicate every row from sources.md or evidence-matrix.md; summarize the domain and link back to the canonical evidence.

OKF Compatibility Gate

Open Knowledge Format (OKF) compatibility belongs under RAG and project tooling unless a future pass proves that it changes the source/evidence model. It can be useful as an interoperability contract: typed page metadata, portable concept IDs, agent traversal hints, validation checks, and a reusable export surface for sibling projects.

The current decision is non-destructive: prefer a generated sidecar bundle such as okf-out/intersystems-wiki/ over an in-place conversion. Keep docs/ canonical. Do not place generated OKF output where MkDocs, generated indexes, or Graphify will treat it as new project evidence unless that ingestion behavior is deliberately changed and verified.

An in-place OKF profile is possible because the Markdown file count is small, but it needs a separate stop/go decision. The risk is semantic churn: OKF gives reserved meaning to index.md and log.md, while this wiki already uses those filenames for MkDocs indexes, home/module entry points, and the Research Log. Before converting in place, prototype representative files, map local page roles to OKF type values, then run strict MkDocs, generated-index, and Graphify checks.

2026-09-25 Requesting Adapter Structure Decision

Go for one reader-facing implementation page. The specific research question otherwise requires repeated traversal of the GP2GP parent, S94, S43, onboarding, repository setup, mapping and release documents. GP2GP Requesting Adapter consolidates that model; SRC-427 to SRC-442 remain in the canonical registers. Retain the four-nation parent, reuse its assurance checklist and park unresolved release/contract/operational questions in the existing queue. No new evidence domain or request pack.

Next Domain Selection

The Standards Directory and interoperability mapping breadth domain has now been promoted into a dedicated evidence-domain page. HealthShare Components, NHS England Digital Primary Care, and Standards and Interoperability are the current first-class domain pages.

Use the standards domain as a routing layer for named standards, terminology/code-management questions, source-layer labels, supplier-role questions, reusable conformance requests, and product/deployment proof boundaries. The first narrow implementation-proof slice is NHS ITK because it has a clear current evidence boundary: vendor and product-documentation evidence exists, but the 2026-06-20 current-source recheck still found no current public non-vendor certificate/register row or customer deployment proof for a named InterSystems product/version.

Structure stop/go rule: do not add a new page, checklist, request pack, or evidence-domain layer unless it reduces repeated traversal or turns an active assurance claim into a concrete evidence request. If the issue is only an unresolved source, a single supplier response target, or a generic concern, keep it in the existing module or Evidence Validation Queue and link to the reusable standards-conformance pattern.

UK NHS examples were reassessed after the standards-domain pass. Do not create a UK NHS examples evidence-domain page yet: the overview plus independent example pages still provide sufficient routing. Reassess only if the canonical registers or example pages become difficult to traverse across North West London, eConsult, North Tees, West Midlands, MERIT, ROH, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland evidence. Keep Defence contained unless a new primary source appears.

The 2026-06-21 breadth rotations used this rule to add depth to existing UK NHS example pages rather than creating a new evidence-domain page. ROH gained adjacent EPR planning evidence. North West London gained acute-trust Health Connect / TIE technical context but not ICB procurement proof. eConsult gained current InterSystems/Huma HCC and Digital Front Door public-signal evidence but not formal Huma/NHS architecture proof.

Keep West Midlands FOI/source-target work and DUAA / ICO publication tracking in the Evidence Validation Queue until new evidence arrives or a scheduled recheck is needed. The 2026-06-21 traversal-friction check does not justify a new domain page now. Devolved nations remain the leading future candidate only if traversal pressure grows because Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland already have service-equivalence and InterSystems-by-nation pages. UK Defence is contained unless new evidence appears; international PHC remains contained in a single module plus source/evidence rows.

2026-06-20 Breadth Reassessment

No new evidence-domain page is justified in this pass. Choose the next breadth target only when the same class of question repeatedly requires traversal across multiple module pages, sources.md, evidence-matrix.md, and the Evidence Validation Queue. If the issue is a single unresolved artefact, keep it in the existing module or queue instead of promoting a new domain.

Candidate Current traversal Decision
Standards implementation proof Already has Standards and Interoperability Evidence Domain, product-map audits, ITK evidence request material, PRSB CIS page, NHS Standards Directory map, and GP Connect / MESH / ITK3 child page. Continue high-risk product-map row audits and implementation-proof slices inside the existing domain; do not create another standards domain page.
Devolved UK nations Parent service-equivalence page, three country connectivity pages, three InterSystems-by-nation pages, and canonical register rows are still navigable. Still the leading future breadth candidate, but no promotion until repeated cross-nation questions require all layers plus sources.md and evidence-matrix.md.
UK NHS examples Overview plus independent example pages remain enough for North West London, eConsult, North Tees, West Midlands, MERIT, ROH, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland references. No new page. Reassess only if example/source-type traversal becomes repetitive.
UK Defence healthcare Single Programme CORTISONE / UK Defence Healthcare module plus source/evidence rows, now including DMICP definition, rollout/deployed-use, replacement, and dental procurement signals for the Executive Summary question. Contained. Do not create a domain page or use as a default next step. Use the existing CORTISONE page and validation-queue row when the exam question requires DMICP/CORTISONE interface proof.
International PHC Single TrakCare PHC international module plus source/evidence rows. No new page. Add depth to the existing module first if new customer/government evidence appears.

2026-06-21 Traversal-Friction Check

No new evidence-domain page is justified for the current generic-conformance pass. The GP Connect supplier-progress claim is an implementation-proof slice inside the existing Standards and Interoperability Evidence Domain, not a new source/evidence domain.

Candidate Current traversal Decision
GP Connect supplier-progress evidence requests Evidence Validation Queue, GP Connect InterSystems Supplier Progress, InterSystems GP Connect Evidence Boundary, Standards and Interoperability Evidence Domain, Evidence Matrix, and Source Register. Keep inside existing GP Connect and standards pages. The new request pack closes the assurance-pattern gap without needing another domain page.
GP2GP record-transfer boundary GP2GP Record Transfer, DSIC Standards and National Services, NHS Standards Directory and DHSC Standards Direction, devolved connectivity pages, InterSystems-by-nation pages, Evidence Matrix, and Source Register. Add the focused module page, but do not create a new evidence-domain layer. The page reduces repeated traversal for the cross-nation GP2GP question while keeping source IDs and implementation gaps in existing canonical registers.
Terminology code management and Read-to-SNOMED mapping Terminology Code Management and Read-to-SNOMED Mapping, NHS Standards Directory and DHSC Standards Direction, UK Healthcare Recording Legal and Professional Position, DSIC Standards and National Services, FHIR Services, Evidence Matrix, Source Register, and Evidence Validation Queue. Add the focused module page, but do not create a new evidence-domain layer. The page reduces repeated traversal for Read retirement, SNOMED CT UK Edition, dm+d, NHS Terminology Server, local-code ConceptMaps, and deployment proof questions.
PRSB CIS checklist collapse PRSB Core Information Standard, Standards and Interoperability Evidence Domain, Evidence Validation Queue, Evidence Matrix, and Source Register. Collapsed the duplicate generic request table; PRSB now keeps PRSB-specific assurance scope and relies on the canonical standards-domain pattern. Do not create another checklist or request-pack page.
HealthShare Care Community implementation gap Existing Care Community module, HealthShare Components Evidence Domain, Evidence Matrix, Source Register, and Evidence Validation Queue. No new page, request pack, checklist, or domain layer. Keep current technical-documentation and customer-deployment gaps in the existing module and HealthShare components queue until a new source or assurance decision appears.
Sibling-project reusable assurance mechanics Context Map, LLM Wiki Maintenance, Starter Instruction, Standards and Interoperability Evidence Domain, and Source and Evidence Domain Map. Operational note only. Reuse the pattern across projects, but do not create a project-agnostic evidence domain or duplicate request packs inside this wiki.
Devolved nations, UK NHS examples, international PHC Existing 2026-06-20 checks remain valid: each area is navigable through current module pages and canonical registers. No promotion. Reassess only when the same cross-page question repeatedly forces traversal across modules, sources.md, evidence-matrix.md, and the queue.

Devolved Nations Traversal-Cost Check

Light check completed 2026-06-20. Do not create a Devolved UK Nations evidence-domain page yet.

Slice checked Current routing Traversal cost Decision
Cross-nation service equivalence GP Connect and Spine Equivalents by Nation, plus Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland connectivity-equivalent pages. Moderate but navigable: one parent comparison and three country child pages carry the service-function split. Keep as module pages for now.
InterSystems by nation InterSystems in Scotland, InterSystems in Wales, and InterSystems in Northern Ireland. Low: each page has a narrow country-specific product boundary and follow-up list. Keep as module pages for now.
Canonical source/evidence lookup Source IDs SRC-105 to SRC-147, SRC-198, and SRC-199; evidence-matrix devolved rows; validation-queue UK nations rows. Moderate: enough rows to monitor, not yet enough friction to justify a duplicate domain layer. Use this map plus existing pages.

Promotion trigger: create a dedicated Devolved UK Nations evidence-domain page only if a future pass repeatedly needs to traverse the parent comparison, three connectivity pages, three InterSystems-by-nation pages, sources.md, and evidence-matrix.md to answer the same class of cross-nation question. Until then, add depth to the existing country pages rather than introducing another routing layer.

2026-09-15 UK Connectivity Traversal Decision

Go for reader-facing synthesis; no new evidence-domain register. The user's whole-UK question now requires the comparison page, all three devolved connectivity pages, supplier-by-nation evidence, England national services and diagnostic programme sources in one traversal. The UK Healthcare Connectivity Landscape supplies the missing starting point. England Spine and National Services supplies country parity, and Diagnostic Results and Image Exchange brings together the active pathology/FHIR and NIR/IEP transition questions. These three modules reduce repeated traversal; existing country pages are expanded in place.

Keep the functional GP Connect/Spine comparison, supplier evidence and Defence Executive Summary distinct. Networks, patient identity, staff/system identity, clinical services, data formats and portals are separate layers. Report dated pilot/rollout/retirement evidence without converting targets into completed cutovers. Public InterSystems evidence is labelled by product, role, place and date. Register sources and claims in the existing canonical tables; unresolved SWAN/PACS, NIR/IEP and NIDIS/NHAIS completion or interface questions belong in the existing queue, not new request packs.

2026-09-16 Core National Services Matrix Decision

Go for one dedicated reader-facing matrix. The user requested a simple function-by-nation comparison and explicitly selected national services only, with gaps marked. Answering demographics, organisations, pathology requesting/results, radiology requesting/reports/images, referrals and prescribing currently requires repeated traversal of four country pages and the diagnostic comparison. The UK Core Services Matrix reduces that traversal; it does not add an evidence-domain register or replace the wider landscape and adapter analysis.

Keep cells short and linked to the country evidence. Include national services delivered through distributed infrastructure, while retaining scope and dated-coverage limits. Do not fill gaps with local EPR/LIMS/RIS products. New organisation-reference and diagnostic-scope evidence belongs in the existing Source Register and Evidence Matrix; unverified national counterparts remain bounded queue items. The same-day follow-up clarifies the cell policy: describe evidenced trust/laboratory, provider or health-board delivery instead of bare “Gap”; keep local products in the explanatory evidence, and label actual uncertainty separately. This refines the existing matrix without another page or evidence layer.

Source Register Contract

  • docs/sources.md remains the stable source-ID register.
  • docs/evidence-matrix.md remains the canonical claim-to-source matrix.
  • Domain pages are navigational synthesis layers.
  • If a domain page introduces a new durable claim, add it to the evidence matrix.
  • If a domain page introduces a new source, add it to the source register first.

2026-09-25 Clinical Platform Estate Decision

Go for a reader-facing estate hub, three subject matrices and one map; no new evidence-domain register. The user explicitly requested a new UK-wide topic crossing shared-record programmes, hospital EPRs/external portals and diagnostic platforms. Answering it otherwise requires repeated traversal of product pages, country service pages, local examples and sibling-project inventories. UK Clinical Platform Estate supplies one entry point; the three matrices separate product roles, while the map and downloads reuse a single canonical dataset. Do not create one wiki page per trust or unresolved supplier.

The baseline crosswalk represents all 36 current English ICBs and all territorial regions in the devolved nations, with explicit unknowns and partial programme footprints. It is not a full site/deployment census. Sources remain in the Source Register, synthesis claims in the Evidence Matrix and cutover/supplier/site gaps in the Evidence Validation Queue. DShCR geography and dmsGIS public geometry reduce repeated work; their private or operational material is not public evidence.
