# Policy Normalized Field Removal Prep — PREP-POLICY-AOC-19-003-REQUIRES-DECISIONED-NO

Status: Draft (2025-11-20)
Owners: Policy Guild
Scope: Define decisioned normalized-field removal once gate (19-002) is in place.

## Dependencies
- Gate/lint outcomes from 19-002.
- Decision on which normalized fields to drop vs keep (need product/architecture sign-off).

## Draft plan
- Candidate fields to remove: legacy `normalized_score`, deprecated `source_rank`, any duplicated severity fields.
- Keep: deterministic canonical severity, policy profile hashes.
- Output: migration plan + fixtures showing before/after payloads.

## Acceptance
- Agree field list and migration steps; document in `docs/modules/policy/design/policy-normalized-field-removal.md`.
- Fixtures placed under `docs/modules/policy/samples/policy-normalized-field-removal*.json`.

## Handoff
Prep artefact for PREP-POLICY-AOC-19-003-REQUIRES-DECISIONED-NO. Update with final field list once decisions made; then mark sprint task DONE.
