Code Review Report

Batch: AZ-230_satellite_service_vpr_retrieval Date: 2026-05-03 Verdict: PASS

Findings

No findings.

Review Scope

• Task spec:
  • _docs/02_tasks/todo/AZ-230_satellite_service_vpr_retrieval.md
• Changed files:
  • src/satellite_service/__init__.py
  • src/satellite_service/interfaces.py
  • src/satellite_service/types.py
  • tests/unit/test_satellite_service_vpr.py

Phase Notes

Spec Compliance

• AZ-230 AC-1 is covered by test_valid_local_index_load_reports_ready_status.
• AZ-230 AC-2 is covered by test_loaded_index_returns_bounded_candidates_with_freshness.
• AZ-230 AC-3 is covered by test_missing_index_degrades_with_explicit_no_candidate_result.
• Descriptor-fidelity gating is covered by test_descriptor_fidelity_gate_rejects_large_optimized_delta.

Code Quality

The implementation follows the existing component pattern: public Pydantic models live in types.py, behavior and protocols live in interfaces.py, and component exports are centralized in __init__.py.

Security Quick-Scan

No network calls, shell execution, dynamic code execution, hardcoded secrets, or credential logging were introduced. Retrieval only uses local preloaded descriptor records.

Performance Scan

Candidate scoring is bounded by the loaded local index and request top_k is constrained to 50. The implementation does not add a steady-state per-frame retrieval loop.

Cross-Task Consistency

The retrieval code reuses the Satellite Service sync boundary’s offline-only posture and shared VprCandidate/ErrorEnvelope contracts.

Architecture Compliance

Imports respect _docs/02_document/module-layout.md: Satellite Service imports shared contracts/errors and Tile Manager through public package exports only.
