Stucco siding brought onto the roof shingles??

Shingles shouldn’t directly touch stucco there should be proper flashing and a gap to allow water to shed and avoid wicking into the wall. If the roofer installed flashing behind the stucco and under the shingles, that may be okay, but check the shingle manufacturer’s installation guide. Some require a small clearance from vertical surfaces. It’s worth confirming otherwise, you could see water intrusion or premature shingle wear later.
