Coverage Dashboard

Auto-generated tracking of content coverage across all subjects. Last updated: 2026-10-15 (research branch; after the October rounds — interface encyclopedia rebuild, process-exit-signal part, Section G languages part, orphan wiring, warning cleanup).

Branch note: research, dev and main are synced at the same commit (989c5c3). The repository now contains 4211 content pages under src/ (+SUMMARY.md, 4,116 nav entries, 0 duplicates, 0 dead entries), 5,546 Mermaid diagrams across 1,659 files, and MathJax-clean math throughout. The per-subject page counts in the table below are point-in-time from the 2026-08-16 dashboard run and were not regenerated; everything that landed since is itemized under “Additions after the 2026-08-16 table run” — mostly the Linux interface encyclopedia, userland binaries, process/exit/signal material, Section G language chapters, and the reference-library mining rounds.

Additions after the 2026-08-16 table run

Not reflected in the per-subject table below. The Linux rows in particular have roughly tripled:

Summary

Reference libraries (hand-maintained, 2026-10-09)

Not part of the auto-generated per-subject run above. These fourteen indexes are verified primary-source directories rather than teaching pages, so the useful columns are entries and verified URLs, not interview questions or diagrams. Source of truth: src/references/README.md.

Overall Metrics

• Total markdown files: 4212 (4211 content pages plus SUMMARY.md)
• Total words: ~8.5M (up from ~7.73M at the 2026-10-09 binaries round)
• Total Mermaid diagrams: 5,546 (across 1,659 files; 100% heuristic pass — real mermaid@11 last verified the full corpus 5,527/5,527 on 2026-10-09)
• MathJax: 0 unbalanced delimiters, 0 link-in-math hazards (full run 2026-10-15)
• Fenced code blocks: 0 problems across 4,120 files (check-fences.py, 2026-10-15)
• Internal cross-reference graph: 4,119 nodes, 19,163 unique internal links (one edge per source→target pair; regenerated 2026-10-15)
• Total size: ~69 MB (src/)
• Navigation: 4208 SUMMARY.md entries, 0 duplicate destinations, 0 dead entries; real mdBook v0.5.4 build renders all 4211 pages
• Known debt: none — the 217 pre-existing broken internal links/anchors were closed 2026-10-17 (check-links.py → 0)
• Build status: ✅ All validators passing (SUMMARY, links-except-known-debt, mermaid 100%, MathJax, fences); CI deploy green

Dev Pull Audit — 2026-08-13

• Pulled origin/dev at 61ac3ce and checked the expanded Summary against the filesystem.
• Repaired 14 navigation/link defects: ten absent Summary pages and four stale relative links.
• Current integrity totals: 1,723 content pages, 4,405 Mermaid blocks, 7,405 internal graph links, 0 broken links, and complete Summary coverage.
• The repaired pages are intentionally concise and referenced; future loops can deepen them rather than accumulating empty placeholders.

Integration Batch — 2026-08-12

• Linux book (lb2): 444 source chapters integrated under src/linux/, plus a track overview and the original Linux Tools study component. Its navigation is adapted into this book’s Summary; repository workflows, generated output, and source deployment assets were excluded.
• DSA book (dsa_book_2): 193 source chapters and appendices integrated under src/dsa/, plus a track overview and references. The source’s anchor-named filesystem artifacts were excluded.
• Navigation: 1,544 Markdown files are present and 1,543 are linked from SUMMARY.md (the Summary file is the only excluded Markdown file).
• Link repair: 0 broken relative Markdown or image links.
• Mermaid repair: 4,387/4,387 pass the repository heuristic and Mermaid v11 parser validators.
• Branch safety: integration commits are on dev; main was not changed.
• mdBook build note: the full source tree builds to 1,585 files with search indexing disabled in the constrained sandbox. The normal search-enabled build was attempted twice and terminated by the environment with exit 137; book.toml was not changed to hide that limitation.

Remaining MEDIUM (Next Loop):

• Java Loom Virtual Threads (languages/java/virtual-threads.md)
• Rust async runtimes comparison ✅ languages/rust/async-runtimes.md
• eBPF Networking Deep Dive ✅ networks/ebpf-networking.md
• Storage: Ceph CRUSH/RADOS deep dive (storage/ceph-crush.md) remains; NVMe-oF is complete in storage/nvmeof.md ✅
• Concurrency: ABA Problem & Hazard Pointers ✅ concurrency/aba-problem.md; transactional memory expansion remains
• Backend: GraphQL Federation ✅ backend/api/graphql-federation.md; CDC and Outbox are complete in backend/patterns/cdc-outbox.md ✅
• Distributed: CRDTs are complete in distributed/fundamentals/crdts.md ✅; Vector Clocks can still be expanded

LOW Priority:

• Quantum computing, blockchain (PoW/PoS, Merkle), edge computing (Cloudflare Workers, Fastly Compute@Edge)
• Observability Deep Dive: OpenTelemetry ✅ backend/observability/opentelemetry.md
• SSTable already done, BlobDB done — tiered storage is now covered; further work can focus on cost-model examples

Next Steps (Loop Continues)

• Expand Storage to 20+ pages: currently 18 → add Ceph CRUSH, NVMe-oF, tiered storage, BlobDB done, SSTable done, WAL done, compaction done — need Ceph RADOS, write amplification minimization, erasure coding deep dive already exists but could expand
• Expand Concurrency to 25+ pages: currently 18 → ABA, memory barriers, work-stealing, RCU, and memory-model coverage are present — need transactional memory expansion, work-stealing already done, maybe add lock-free queue, wait-free
• Expand Frameworks to 20+ pages: currently 9 → split Vue & Angular dedicated, add Svelte, Micronaut/Quarkus, Actix/Axum, Fiber/Chi done via Go web frameworks, need Rust Actix
• Expand Distributed to 50+ pages: currently 40 → CRDTs complete; add vector clocks deep dive and gossip tuning
• Keep meta updated each batch; current checks are 100% Mermaid and 0 broken links.
• Run and record the full mdBook build before declaring a future batch complete. The constrained build for this batch passed; the production search-enabled build is memory-limited here.
• Push incremental work to dev only for this task; do not modify main.
