The shape ledger showed the same test scaffolding defined over and over:
_bind_user x12 (byte-identical), _dispose_engine x10 in three wordings,
_no_supersession x3, _make_mock_session x7 in three subsets, a get-or-create
User helper x2 (+3 inlined), and fifteen hand-rolled MagicMock note factories
each re-explaining the same "an auto-MagicMock attribute is truthy" hazard
(note 2109).
Now: conftest.py carries _bind_user / _dispose_engine / _no_supersession as
opt-in fixtures (pytestmark = usefixtures(...) per module, so unit tests pay
nothing), and tests/helpers.py carries make_mock_session(), ensure_user() and
fake_note(**attrs) — the hazard documented once, real values on every
attribute the product reads. Call sites were rewritten by AST so titles with
dashes and commas survived; the three SimpleNamespace _note stand-ins that
only feed a single function stay local.

First slice of the Issues + Systems feature (spec #825, plan #819 T2).
Schema (migration 0065):
- task_kind CHECK expands work|plan -> work|plan|issue (same-change, rule 36)
- notes.arose_from_id: optional self-FK for issue->originating-task provenance
(distinct from parent_id sub-task hierarchy)
- systems: per-project, self-describing (name + description) subsystem/area
- record_systems: M2M join linking any note/task/issue to systems (mutable)
Models: System + RecordSystem; note.py gains arose_from_id (+ index, to_dict).
Service services/systems.py: CRUD, archive, soft-delete, set/list associations,
records-for-system, open-issue count — all gated via services/access.py project
permissions (rule 78, no bare-owner filters). Unit tests lock the ACL gating;
the migration is exercised by CI's integration lane (alembic upgrade head).
is_task stays a derived property (status is not None) — unchanged. T1 (typing-
axis rationalization) intentionally NOT bundled; this only adds the enum value.
Refs plan 825 (S1).
