# 2026-09-01 ve2e inference history audit

## Work Done

- Audited `src/ve2e/inference.py` in the `virdx/ve2e` checkout without changing that repository.
- Traced the deletion to `36a6db519372b7a641f9f9c0df0069d8fccf7175` and inspected the predecessor lineage back to `scripts/run_inference.py`.
- Checked all 254 fetched `origin/*` branch refs. Twenty-eight remote branch tips still contain the file; `origin/neerav/isup-two-stage` contains a post-fork fix from `6f92aef4bfde60fe6cc14131df9468551de63328`.
- Checked source imports, call sites, configuration, and documentation. The deleted file combined a Hydra CLI with reusable helpers; the deletion preserved the used helpers in a package and removed the old CLI/config.

## Lessons Learned: Pitfalls

- A path-only log hides the earlier `scripts/run_inference.py` history. `git log --follow` was needed.
- Branch tip dates do not show when the file itself changed. Blob grouping and the last path-touching commit were needed to avoid treating unrelated branch activity as inference development.

## Lessons Learned: Improvements

- A reusable repository-audit checklist should separate exact-path history, rename lineage, tip containment, blob variants, call sites, and runtime evidence. Git can establish repository intent and development, but not prove actual executions without external telemetry.
