📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes remove Scout-specific terminology from documentation, fixtures, package metadata, and tests. The legacy archive uses generic naming and paths. Test documentation now refers to the source consumer and package context.

Changes

Legacy archive generalization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Legacy archive replay and packaging examples/legacy-archive/..., conformance/test_legacy_archive.py, packages/paa-contracts/...	The replay test, fixture actors, package artifact paths, verification script, and required-root checks now use legacy-archive.
Generic consumer documentation PAA.md, README.md, examples/refund_quickstart/README.md, packages/paa-contracts/README.md, packages/paa-contracts/src/paa_contracts/__init__.py	Documentation now uses generic source-consumer terminology and describes consumer-owned database implementations.
Source suite test references tests/test_declarations.py, tests/test_service.py	Test comments and docstrings now reference the source suite and package context. No runtime behavior changes occur in the service tests.

🟢 Approval recommended

All consumer-specific references and paths appear consistently updated with only minor docstring wording nits remaining (fixes suggested in comments).

Pull request overview

This PR removes consumer-specific (“Scout”) references across tests, docs, and the paa-contracts artifact set, making the repository wording and fixture paths implementation-neutral while keeping the conformance corpus intact.

Changes:

• Replaces “Scout” references in tests/docs with “source consumer” / neutral phrasing and updates the test actor env var to PAA_TEST_ACTOR.
• Renames the archived capture artifact root from examples/scout-archive to examples/legacy-archive across paa-contracts and conformance tests.
• Updates the pre-cutover capture JSON’s actor fields to remove Scout-specific naming.

Review details

Suppressed comments (1)

tests/test_service.py:9

• The module docstring breaks the tests/test_declarations.py filename across a line break (tests/test_declarations. then py's), which reads like a sentence break rather than a path and is easy to misread.

Ported from the source consumer's service tests. Its in_memory_state
fixture, its module-global PRODUCER_REGISTRY, and its checked-in
contracts/paa declarations directory don't exist here — this package
ships no conftest, so a real SqliteEventStore against a tmp_path database
plus small local declaration fixtures (mirroring tests/test_declarations.

Addressed the latest review round in daa957f:

• Reflowed the module docstring so tests/test_declarations.py remains intact.
• Corrected the capitalization in the versioned-declaration docstring.

Validation: uv run pytest tests/test_service.py (59 passed) and uv run ruff check tests/test_service.py (passed).
