bvandeusenandClaude Opus 5.5 9e1da4af3d docs(6207): migrations 0088 and 0090-0094 state their rationale in terms of the data
Milestone/step labels, record ids, the rescoped-rule date and the 296-call
measurement go; each header states what the change protects. "rule 36"
citations become the DROP + ADD practice they named.

"""task_kind gains 'spike' — the investigation, not the change
Revision ID: 0091
Revises: 0090
Create Date: 2026-08-27
A spike is a task shape the others cannot hold. `work` ships a change;
`issue` fixes something broken. A spike is time-boxed and its output is
KNOWLEDGE — it succeeds by producing an answer, and nothing ships at the
end of it. "Find out whether the runner can be given a bash shell" is not
work, and filing it as work makes a finished investigation look like an
abandoned change.
It is the record a failed check asks for. Rules carry a
`verify_with`; when one of those fails, the rule is wrong and the next move
is often to go and find out what replaced it. `notes.arose_from_id` already
exists (0065), so that constraint -> spike link needs no further schema.
`task_kind` is gated by a CHECK whitelist, so the value and the
widened constraint land in the SAME migration — DROP then ADD, exactly as
0065 did when it introduced 'issue'. Adding the value and constraining it
later leaves a window where the database accepts anything.
'plan' stays in the list though it is retired (plans are milestones since
0066): historical plan-tasks still carry it, and dropping it from the
whitelist would make old rows unwritable.
