- Around line 23-24: Revise the metadata plumbing statement to distinguish the
currently supported paths: confirm metadata for OFREP single/bulk and single
gRPC responses, note that this proto layer’s ResolveAll path does not yet expose
it, and remove the claim that RecordEvaluation telemetry already carries
metadata attributes. Limit the ADR’s end-to-end contract to these verified paths
and identify metrics/telemetry support as a separate change.

Note GitHub couldn't provide a complete incremental comparison for this pull request, so CodeRabbit is performing a full review instead. This review may take a little longer. |

I generally like the idea, but I am missing the migration path. How do we plan to move from old version to new version, without breaking migration patterns? I feel like we need to point out how we plan to migrate without breaking installations for others. In-process providers might be used in deprecated services and we need to give people time to migrate from one to the other. Is it maybe time to have a version contract in the request for the flag configuration? |

In `@docs/architecture-decisions/targeting-variant-metadata.md`:
- Around line 29-45: Update the ADR to document the migration contract for the
new tagged-object return shape, including upgrade order, behavior when an older
provider rejects it or returns PARSE_ERROR, and whether configuration requests
include a schema or feature version. Clarify that existing string configurations
remain compatible but the new format is not forward-compatible, and remove any
claim of full backward compatibility until mixed-version rollout is defined.
- Around line 47-51: Extend integration tests around evaluateVariant to cover
string results, tagged objects with and without metadata, nested if branches,
and invalid result shapes. Ensure single-key {"variant":...} objects are
supported despite jsonlogic/v3.9.1 treating them as operators by adjusting
evaluateVariant or the dependency, while preserving PARSE_ERROR for unsupported
shapes and validating metadata merging.

Preserve boolean-result compatibility.
The v0 targeting schema defines boolean rule results as "true"/"false" variant keys, and existing tests cover this behavior. Normalize booleans to those keys before the typed decode, or add an explicit boolean case. Add an integration test for both boolean results; otherwise existing configurations will return PARSE_ERROR.

Define the metadata merge order unambiguously.
Line 52 says to write reason and details first, then merge rule metadata on top. That order allows rule metadata to overwrite those fields, which contradicts the statement that the explicit fields win. Merge rule metadata first, then overlay reason and details, or correct the precedence statement.
