Phase 5 (1 of 9 cruft sites obliterated):
OBLITERATED: RAGEngine._chunk_code wrapper. It delegated to _chunk_code_result
and provided a fallback to _chunk_text on AST failure.
Migration: index_file() now calls _chunk_code_result directly with .ok check
+ chunk-size threshold check + fallback to _chunk_text inline. The structured
ErrorInfo is propagated if needed (no caller currently consumes it).
Sub-track 5 tests updated:
- tests/tier2/phase13_invariant_test.py: _chunk_code moved to obliterated list
- tests/tier2/phase13_site2_test.py: _legacy_no_broad_except -> _legacy_obliterated
- tests/test_cruft_removal.py: 2 new tests (wrapper-obliterated invariant +
caller-uses-result invariant)
PITFALL encountered: the edit_file tool removed a leading space on the
next class method's 'def' line, causing an IndentationError. Fixed by
binary-write replacement preserving CRLF + leading-space styleguide convention
(project uses 1-space indentation; class body methods start at column 1).
Test result: 124/124 pass.
Audit gate: src/rag_engine.py --strict exits 0 (no new violations).
Wrapper count: 3 -> 2 (Phase 6 remaining: gui_2 2).
Site 2 (BC at L224): _chunk_code had a fallback to text chunking on any
failure:
try:
parser = ASTParser('python')
tree = parser.parse(content)
...
return chunks
except Exception:
return self._chunk_text(content)
Body: broad catch + fallback to a different implementation = empty-default
fallback = SS-style violation.
New helper _chunk_code_result(content, file_path) -> Result[List[str]]:
- Returns Result(data=chunks) on AST parse success
- Returns Result(data=None, errors=[ErrorInfo]) on parse failure
Legacy _chunk_code calls helper; on Result errors, falls back to
_chunk_text (preserving original behavior). The catch logic is in the
legacy, not the helper, so the caller decides the fallback strategy.
Audit: rag_engine BC 4 -> 3.
