About
The Remediation Detector is a small triggered droid owned by Elrond that works out which existing initiative a new initiative is referring to when it mentions a remediation target. When an initiative says something like "this remediates CAROL-INI-123," the droid scans the title and description for a CAROL-INI-NNN reference sitting near a remediation keyword, then resolves it to the exact target initiative row. It exists because this logic was previously duplicated in the Carol Initiatives app and the Initiative Creator droid; now the Remediation Detector is the single source of truth for that detection.
The droid triggers when a new initiative is created or when an Orion bypass needs its remediation target detected, and it returns the target id with evidence on a confident match โ or None with a reason if it isn't sure. It is deliberately conservative: ambiguous references, no nearby remediation keyword, or a matched initiative that doesn't exist all produce None rather than a guess. Its behavior is preserved byte-for-byte from the former app helper (CAROL-INI-884 was a relocation, not a refactor), and it is only reached through the shared shim, never imported by the app directly.
The Remediation Detector is one of 26 droids in the author family, which agents including Albus, Archon, Argus, and Carol also run, but the name "Remediation Detector" itself is unique to this droid. Although its matching logic is deterministic, it calls Claude to perform the scanning and resolution; the specific model isn't recorded.
