Review comments at @docs/architecture_tiered.md:
- Line 136: Update the phase references throughout the architecture page,
including the crash-recovery table, to consistently use the current 1–6
numbering; align the Iceberg-range wipe, cutover, and cleanup references with
their corresponding phases in the list.
Review comments at @docs/formal/README.md:
- Around line 327-328: Update the fidelity text around “CAS commit” to describe
an ordered sequence of one or more metadata-only CAS updates, one per queued
ALTER update, under the held claim before release. Preserve the comparison to
the append modeled at Decide and its parent-CAS conflict shape.
Review comments at @docs/usage.md:
- Around line 19-22: Update the setup introduction in the usage documentation to
describe PostgreSQL, Lakekeeper, and the S3-compatible object store as services
started by the setup, not prerequisites already running; keep the extension
setup and bootstrap sequence consistent with that wording.
Review comments at @docs/walkthrough_demos.md:
- Line 590: Make the standalone Iceberg demos in walkthrough_demos.md
self-contained by adding idempotent prerequisite setup before calls to
coldfront.create_iceberg_table and coldfront.ensure_attached, or include the
same initialization in shared setup. Ensure the documented path installs
pg_duckdb and coldfront and sets the SeaweedFS storage secret, matching
ensure_coldfront_setup.

Rebased from main and edited. Some fixes went to main directly in 9b9863b. Changed:
- Headings are Title Case with code names, extensions and pgEdge keeping their own case, and coldfront becomes ColdFront only where it means the product.
- One "Known Limitations" section works better as "Caveats".
- A list of phases must stay 0-5 to agree with the code.
- The walkthrough steps keep their numbers as "Step N:" and the table links to them.
- Bold labels became plain text except where they were real sub-sections.

Review comments at @docs/architecture_decoupled.md:
- Line 27: Update the “Required at runtime” row to list both S3-compatible
storage and Azure ADLS Gen2 as supported decoupled storage options, preserving
the existing runtime requirements.
- Line 95: Replace the unescaped pipe separators in the INSERT row’s Path cell
with “or” (or escape them) so the INSERT variants remain within that cell and
the table retains three columns.
Review comments at @docs/object_store.md:
- Around line 39-41: Update the object-resource permissions in the documented S3
policy to include s3:AbortMultipartUpload alongside the existing object actions;
leave the bucket-level permissions unchanged.
- Around line 121-122: Correct the AWS S3 addressing guidance in the
documentation around path-style access and endpoints: clarify that both
addressing styles are supported when path-style requests use the bucket’s
Regional endpoint, and that a legacy global endpoint can return HTTP 400 in
newer Regions. Remove claims that path-style universally fails or is required to
be disabled.
Review comments at @docs/usage.md:
- Around line 984-986: Update the documented coldfront.peer_alive_window_ms
value so it exceeds the idle reply_time refresh interval documented in the same
section, preventing a healthy peer from being treated as already acknowledged.
Do not use wal_receiver_status_interval to justify the window; the Spock apply
worker does not read it.
Review comments at @docs/walkthrough_demos.md:
- Around line 455-457: Update the Step 10 sample in the walkthrough so the row
with id = 1 uses the same timestamp as Step 9 and its later output, keeping the
sequential queries consistent with one loaded dataset.
- Around line 415-419: Update the hot-row estimate in the walkthrough to
describe the demo’s 30-day cutoff against each partition’s exclusive upper
bound. Include how run time affects eligibility, noting that a previous
partition can be eligible on the last day of a 31-day month while a shorter
month-end run may retain about 83,000 hot rows.

Summary
case (Title Case), missing lead-in sentences, ambiguous "it",
em-dashes in prose, misused numbered lists, bold text standing in
for headings, casual wording, product-name capitalization
(coldfront -> ColdFront), and inconsistent line wrap
theme's own sidebar TOC
usage.md's "Gotchas" heading to "Known Limitations" forconsistency with the rest of the doc set
walkthrough.md: setup/intro stays there, and all four demosmoved to a new
walkthrough_demos.mdpage (added tomkdocs.ymlnav). The 11 numbered "Step N" headings became gerund-style titles
linked from the summary table, dropping the redundant step-number
duplication between the table and the headings
architecture_vectors.mdandusage_vectors.md, whichhad never been wrapped to the 79-character house style
