 ## Phase 1 — Data spine
 
+**Status: complete (2026-11-10).** Built by Torres on `dev` (`5bf180c..19e46cd`), independently re-verified by Alex (fresh-DB import x2, deck CLI, 8/8 selfcheck), merged to `main` (`d890dcd`). Live result: 640 rows → 560 active + 80 dup; deck top = Indian Scout family (91) then Vulcan 900 Classic (73).

-- Proof: CLI query shows a ranked, deduped queue from the real live catalog
-- **Exit criteria:** importer runs clean twice in a row; counts reconcile against the source; no schema surprises.

+- Dedupe pairing refinement — multi-unit dealer groups (BMW G 310 R, 2 groups) over-merge under the v1 collapse-to-one rule; `min(ns,nb)` pairing → 77 dup, keeps sibling rows visible. Revisit before launch.
+- Image backfill is priority — only ~20/640 rows carry an image in the state; the DESIGN bootstrap backfill is essential for the deck.
+- Dealer-blast mitigation + Stage 1.5 swipe boost matter immediately — only ~67/560 active rows are family-scored; the rest sort below.

 ## Evidence highlights (2026-11-10)
 
-- Snapshot: `kijiji-ns` 320 items, `kijiji-nb` 320 items; **58/320 NS rows are NB cross-post twins** → importer dedupes.
+- Snapshot: `kijiji-ns` 320 items, `kijiji-nb` 320 items; **74 cross-province twin groups (normalized title + price) → 80 dup rows under the v1 collapse-to-one rule** (verified against the live import 2026-11-10; the earlier "≈58" was a rough estimate). Two multi-unit dealer groups (BMW G 310 R) over-merge under that rule — pairing refinement tracked in `PLAN.md` (Phase 2 backlog).
 - Live fetch: page 1 fetched twice → byte-identical 40 cards (no flake that day); **40/40 cards carry image URLs**; pages 9 and 15 still full (depth available beyond the current window).
 - Images: `media.kijiji.ca` URLs are **token-free and size-rewritable** (`?rule=kijijica-640-webp` → 200; `960-webp` rewrite → 200; URL without rule → 404 — the rule is the size selector, not a token).
 - Anti-bot: none observed across 15 pages of probes + production traffic.
