# Reference-drift probe
Is the template still the best version of itself?
```bash
python scripts/reference_drift_probe.py --target <skill-repo> --repos-root ~/src
python scripts/reference_drift_probe.py --target <skill-repo> --repos-root ~/src --format json
python scripts/reference_drift_probe.py --target <skill-repo> \
--repo-path malkreide/swiss-efv-mcp=/srv/swiss-efv-mcp
python scripts/reference_drift_probe.py --target <skill-repo> --repos-root ~/src --no-unanimity
```
Exit `0` agree, `2` **findings**, `3` nothing readable (NOT MEASURED), `4` the
checkout moved during the run, `127` the harness could not run.
## Why
`reference/` in a skill repository ships code that gets copied into servers.
After the copy, the two halves drift apart in both directions and neither side
looks wrong: in the server only the copied fragment is visible, and in the skill
repository there is no server. Nobody is ever looking at both.
The dangerous direction is the template being behind. A server that missed a fix
is one repository with one defect; a stale template hands the same defect to
every server built next, at the moment somebody is least likely to read the code
they are copying.
## The mapping is declared, never guessed
`reference/adoption.toml` names which template, which repositories, which file
and symbol, and since when. There is no name-similarity fallback. A guessed
mapping produces a finding nobody can retrace, and a finding nobody can retrace
is how a gate gets switched
