KnouandClaude Opus 5 867a07cecb Refine project documentation and track metric files
Close gaps found in a review of the documentation:
- Track data/metrics/ and data/metric_sources.json in git so the data
  checker passes on a fresh clone (finding 23; decision logged)
- State the Alaska and Hawaii coverage gap in the README limitations and
  extend finding 12
- File findings 24-26: the data-sources doc lacks gridMET and several
  pipeline commands; wettest/driest month are computed twice; solar GHI
  is written by the extreme-temperature apply step
- Add the stale "fallback values" note to filter 2's tasks

Tidy the document system:
- Add docs/reviews/README.md with the numbering rules and a finding index
- Rename koppen-mixed-display-plan.md to koppen-mixed-display.md and fix
  its stale Puerto Rico and "stage 5" text
- Add the precipitation-month step to the README enrichment list
- Describe the Current method / Previous method pattern in plan section 5
- Add CLAUDE.md with the project guardrails and doc layout

Format filter-calculations.md so it renders on GitHub and in VS Code:
inline math uses $...$, ranges use en dashes, and implementation
references name functions instead of line numbers.

Filter reviews

Each filter has one review file (01–12) holding its findings, links to its decisions, and its task checklist. 00-cross-filter.md holds findings that affect more than one filter. Review status is tracked in pipeline-plan.md §6, and every review follows the checklist in §5.

Conventions

  • Each finding lives in exactly one review file. The other filter reviews it affects link to it and record only how it applied to them.
  • Findings keep one number across all review files. A new finding takes the next number (27 as of 2026-09-15) wherever it is filed, and is added to the index below.
  • A finding that turns out to affect other filters moves to 00, leaving a link behind.
  • A resolved finding stays where it is, with its resolution in italics.
  • A finding accepted as a limitation becomes a caveat in filter-calculations.md.

Finding index

Status is kept in each finding, not here.

# Finding File
1 Annual temperature weights months equally 02
2 Base NOAA aggregation is not area-weighted 00
3 Partial precipitation years are accepted 06
4 The Köppen fallback can create false data 01
5 Extreme-day counts are not completeness-normalized 04
6 The absolute-extreme metric depends on unrelated percentile thresholds 04
7 Heat Index days are a daily-extrema proxy 05
8 Heat-year completeness is permissive 05
9 The GHI formula assumes hourly, 365-day input 11
10 Clear-sky reduction averages ratios rather than energy totals 12
11 Spatial weighting is inconsistent across metric families 00
12 Alaska and Hawaii are not covered by the NOAA and gridMET sources 00
13 Lexington, VA (51678) is missing from the NOAA daily county files 00
14 Helper functions are duplicated across scripts 00
15 The app's source text for three NOAA metrics names the wrong product 00
16 Source links point to retired or missing pages 00
17 The data-sources metric list is out of date 00
18 The data-sources doc describes the retired locally extreme metric 04
19 The data-sources doc recommends a GHI raster the pipeline does not use 11
20 The base build labels any solar CSV as representative-point 11
21 The documented Köppen labels differ from the app 01
22 The base build's docstring calls its Köppen value a majority class 01
23 The metric files and metric_sources.json were not in git 00
24 The data-sources doc does not cover several pipeline steps 00
25 Wettest and driest month are computed in two places 00
26 Solar GHI is finalized by the extreme-temperature apply step 00
