Verdict: Minor Deviation Trigger: Session end
Aligned:
- T-001 and T-002 delivered the dbt scaffold and source declarations per plan goals.
- T-003 through T-007 implemented all staging models and staging schema tests, satisfying the boundary rule to not skip staging tests.
- T-008 through T-014 implemented intermediate/mart models and mart tests without changing planned materializations.
- T-015 completed end-to-end verification with successful
dbt runanddbt test. - Progress logging was maintained per-task through T-001 to T-016.
Deviations:
- T-003 introduced deterministic fallback receipt keys for rows without
NO. KWITANSIinstead of leaving prior-year values null → accepted - T-006 implemented resilient monthly/channel mapping with tenant fallback due raw REKAP header inconsistencies, instead of strict weekly decomposition → accepted
- T-016 included AGENTS command documentation updates beyond core transform SQL scope → accepted
Patterns:
- Defensive normalization/fallback patterns were consistently used for inconsistent raw headers.
- Validation-first execution pattern was maintained (tests and full runs before closure).
Recommendations:
- Keep task acceptance criteria synchronized with implementation details whenever resilient fallbacks are introduced.
- Revisit sync header normalization for
raw_targetsandraw_marketing_activityto reduce transform-layer complexity.
