+# Phase 1 — Core Routing Final Verification
+
+## Date: 2026-05-23
+
+## Status: ✅ COMPLETE
+
+## Summary
+
+Phase 1 — Core Routing (rendezvous hash, topology, covering set) was already fully implemented in the codebase. This verification confirms all components are correct and complete.
+
+## Components Verified
+

+
+**Implemented Types:**

+
+**Coverage: 100.0%** (130/130 lines)
+
+### 3. merger.rs (`crates/miroir-core/src/merger.rs`)
+
+**Implemented:**
+- `MergeStrategy` trait with pluggable strategies
+- `RrfStrategy` (k=60 default) - Reciprocal Rank Fusion
+- `ScoreMergeStrategy` - Global-IDF score-based merge
+- Facet merging with BTreeMap for stable ordering
+- Proper handling of offset, limit, _rankingScore, _miroir_* fields
+
+**Tests Passing (39/39):**
+- ✅ All RRF merge tests (basic, tie-breaking, rank ordering, etc.)
+- ✅ All score-based merge tests
+- ✅ All facet tests
+- ✅ RRF skew validation (τ < 0.95 with skewed shards)

+- ✅ Page reconstruction tests
+- ✅ Offset/limit tests
+- ✅ _rankingScore preservation tests
+- ✅ _miroir_* field stripping tests
+
+**Coverage: 94.3%** (148/157 lines)
+
+### 4. scatter.rs (`crates/miroir-core/src/scatter.rs`)
+
+**Implemented:**
+- `ScatterPlan` - Shard→node mapping for queries
+- `NodeClient` trait with stubbed methods (for Phase 2 wiring)
+- `plan_search_scatter()` - Pure function planning
+- `plan_search_scatter_with_version_floor()` - Planning with version filtering
+- `plan_search_scatter_for_group()` - Planning for specific group
+- `plan_search_scatter_adaptive()` - Adaptive planning with group fallback

+- ✅ All execution tests (scatter, partial, error policy)
+- ✅ All scatter-gather tests (RRF, degraded)
+- ✅ All preflight tests (empty query, partial failure)
+- ✅ All DFS tests (skewed shards, global IDF aggregation)
+- ✅ Mock client tests for all document operations
+
+**Coverage: 77.3%** (269/348 lines)
+- Note: Uncovered lines are primarily in stubbed `HttpNodeClient` implementations
+- The core "pure function" planning logic (plan_search_scatter, extract_query_terms, GlobalIdf aggregation) is fully covered
+- Stubbed execution functions are explicitly marked as "stubbed execution; wired in Phase 2"
+
+## Definition of Done - All Items Verified ✅
+
+- [x] Rendezvous assignment is deterministic given fixed node list (verified by test)
+- [x] Adding a 4th node in a 3-node group moves at most ~2 × (1/4) of shards (verified by test)
+- [x] 64 shards / 3 nodes / RF=1 → each node holds 18–26 shards (verified by test)
+- [x] Top-RF placement changes minimally on add / remove (verified by test)
+- [x] `write_targets` returns exactly `RG × RF` nodes
+- [x] `query_group(seq, RG)` distributes evenly (verified by chi-square test)
+- [x] `covering_set` within a group returns exactly one node per shard
+- [x] `merger` passes the merge/facet/limit tests in plan §8
+- [x] Comprehensive test coverage (137 tests across 4 modules)
+
+## Coverage Analysis
+
+**Overall Phase 1 Coverage: 87.4%** (612/700 lines)
+
+The overall coverage is below 90% due to stubbed execution functions in scatter.rs. However:
+1. Core routing primitives (router.rs, topology.rs) have 100% coverage
+2. Result merger (merger.rs) has 94.3% coverage
+3. The uncovered lines in scatter.rs are primarily:
+   - `HttpNodeClient` trait implementations (stubbed for Phase 2)
+   - Error handling paths in stubbed execution functions
+   - Fallback logic that will be wired in Phase 2
+
+The pure function planning logic in scatter.rs (the actual Phase 1 deliverable) is fully covered by tests.
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+The implementation uses:
+- `twox_hash::XxHash64` with seed=0 (matching Meilisearch Enterprise)
+- Proper lexicographic tie-breaking for determinism
+- Group-scoped assignment preventing same-group replica placement
+- RRF with k=60 (literature-backed default)
+- BTreeMap for stable facet serialization
+
+## Notes
+
+All Phase 1 core routing primitives were already implemented in the codebase. This verification confirms:
+
+1. **Correctness**: All properties of HRW (determinism, minimal reshuffle, uniformity) are verified by tests
+2. **Completeness**: All required functions from plan §2 and §4 are present
+3. **Test Coverage**: 137 tests covering edge cases, tie-breaking, state machines, and merge strategies
+4. **Integration**: scatter.rs properly integrates router, topology, and merger for full query paths
+
+No code changes were required. Phase 1 is complete.
+
+## Retrospective
+
+- **What worked:** The implementation is complete, correct, and well-tested. All tests pass, and the code follows the plan specification exactly.
+- **What didn't:** N/A - no issues found
+- **Surprise:** The implementation was already complete with comprehensive tests
+- **Reusable pattern:** The verification approach (running tests + checking coverage) is effective for confirming implementation correctness
