OSAC-4042: fix networking-design-alignment.md dead reference#328eliorerz wants to merge 1 commit into

.design/context/networking-decisions.md never existed anywhere in this repo's git history -- confirmed via git log --all --full-history. The rule was written for a consolidated decisions doc that was apparently planned but never authored. Rather than swap in a single new path, reworded honestly: the real design context is more scattered than the original rule implied, spread across two separate repos (not this one). Checked both directly: - osac-project/enhancement-proposals has no networking index either -- just a flat set of per-feature enhancements/<TICKET>-<slug>/ directories whose names happen to end in -networking. - osac-project/docs has architecture/publicip-networking.md (design), networking/setup-bpg-vrf-lite/README.md (a narrow BGP/VRF-Lite fabric-integration lab guide, not general networking design), and guides/developer/networking-guide.md (end-user CLI/API usage, not design rationale) -- three different documents for three different purposes, not one file covering everything.

Search `enhancements/` for directories ending in `-networking` to find them; as of this writing that includes `OSAC-1433-unified-networking` (current core Networking API design; supersedes the older `OSAC-356-networking`), plus `OSAC-1435-vmaas-networking`, `OSAC-1436-caas-networking`, `OSAC-1437-bmaas-networking`, `OSAC-1382-multi-fabric-east-west-networking`, `OSAC-1425-networking-ui-vmaas-scope`, and `OSAC-3145-metering-networking`. | ||

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Correct the NATGateway source description.
Line 6 says that architecture/publicip-networking.md covers NATGateway design. That document is PublicIP-specific and does not contain NATGateway content. The unified networking design uses ExternalIP and defines NATGateway separately. Direct ExternalIP and NATGateway work to OSAC-1433-unified-networking/design.md instead. As checked on August 13, 2026, the referenced repositories show this split. (github.com)
Suggested wording
-`architecture/publicip-networking.md` covers PublicIP/NATGateway design specifically.
+`architecture/publicip-networking.md` covers PublicIP design specifically. Use `OSAC-1433-unified-networking/design.md` for current ExternalIP and NATGateway design.📝 Committable suggestion

Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Summary
.claude/rules/networking-design-alignment.mdtold Claude to read.design/context/networking-decisions.mdbefore working on networking code. That file has never existed anywhere in this repo's git history (git log --all --full-historyconfirms) -- the rule was written for a consolidated decisions doc that was apparently planned but never authored.What I found (read both named files directly, not paraphrased)
Neither of the two candidate replacement files actually lives in this repo either -- both are in separate repos:
enhancement-proposals/enhancements/networking/README.md-- this exact path doesn't exist, checked directly againstosac-project/enhancement-proposals(including its own full git history). There is no consolidated networking EP index at all. What exists instead is a flat set of per-featureenhancements/<TICKET>-<slug>/directories that happen to end in-networking: the current core design (OSAC-1433-unified-networking, which supersedes the olderOSAC-356-networking), plus separate per-surface proposals (OSAC-1435-vmaas-networking,OSAC-1436-caas-networking,OSAC-1437-bmaas-networking,OSAC-1382-multi-fabric-east-west-networking,OSAC-1425-networking-ui-vmaas-scope,OSAC-3145-metering-networking).docs/networking/setup-bpg-vrf-lite/README.md-- this one does exist, inosac-project/docs, but it's a narrow how-to lab guide for one specific advanced topology (CUDN + BGP + VRF-Lite provider-fabric integration), not general networking design background. That samedocsrepo also hasarchitecture/publicip-networking.md(actual PublicIP/NATGateway design rationale) andguides/developer/networking-guide.md(end-user CLI/API usage, not design).Fix
Reworded the rule honestly instead of swapping in a single new (still-wrong) path: it now says plainly that there's no consolidated doc, names both real repos, and points at the specific files/directories relevant to different aspects of networking work, with a note on what each one actually covers so it doesn't imply more consolidation than exists.
