Registry-vs-LABELS.md identity, happy path, missing label, one-name 403,
DRY_RUN narration, and the executed-subprocess dispatch (#91's lesson: a
sourced probe cannot see set -e). Cron and pull_request_target delete
nothing. Verified red without the guard: the unguarded dispatch dies on
the FIRST absent label, one delete of six attempted.

reconcile_opened_issue's two early exits were bare returns, which carry
the failed guard's status into the executed script's set -e — every
triage-authored mint killed the labels run before one issue was
reconciled (#91, 4/4 observed). The stand-downs now say return 0; a
genuine failure on the arrival path still aborts loudly.
The suite sources the script and takes the set -u-only branch, so it
was blind to this by construction. The new arrival section executes the
script as a subprocess behind a fixture-serving gh stub (the house
pattern from test/release-chain.test.sh) and covers all three arrival
outcomes plus the preserved loud-failure path; it fails against
bb37c15 with the production signature — exit 1, empty output.

Pure decisions (shape presence, rung boundaries, Default: parse for wording
only), sweep probes for every AC path (malformed-once, conforming silence,
rungs despite activity, cron progression, missed-moment skip, re-flag
episode, unreadable comment list, malformed+rung same pass), and the
existing nudge fixtures updated to conforming escalations with pre-seeded
rung markers so each probe observes one behavior alone.
Part of #73.

Real 'gh api --jq .[].created_at' on an empty collection emits no lines;
the stub printed a literal '[]', which under byte-wise collation sorts
after ISO-8601 timestamps and poisoned the PR-surface probe's
last_activity. Route the synthesized empty array through the same jq
projection as a present fixture, and pin the test's collation so the
verdict cannot flip with the runner's ambient locale.

Issue side: invariant-1 composition, the reclaim clock stopping under a
pending ruling (with a flag-free reclaim control), the stale heal, label
churn invisible to the activity clock, the surface-level nudge reset, and
no edit anywhere naming the flag. PR side: the wired nudge riding the
stale sweep's activity computation, one nudge across two sweeps, #51's
stale skip intact.

Issue side: the claim-reclaim clock stops under a pending ruling (the
decision still sees an unassigned claim), an already-applied stale heals
off, and reconcile_ruling runs for any flagged issue on any queue state.
PR side: reconcile_ruling rides the (#51) stale section's real-activity
computation. test/ruling.test.sh pins the window boundaries, newest-event
anchoring, per-event marker scoping, the markerless nudge reset, the
unreadable-timeline rule, and that no scenario writes a label.

Round 1 (PR #43): codex-bot + kimi-bot reproduced cp writing through a
committed symlink and cmp/find resolving through or skipping link nodes —
both modes now refuse any non-regular node (.ceremony itself, anything
under it, the root AGENTS.md incl. dangling links and non-file nodes)
before touching the tree. kimi-bot also found .ceremony/README.md was
machine-written but never machine-verified: --check now cmps it against
the generated text (missing or drifted -> red). 22 regression rows; every
symlink row asserts the victim untouched.

Fake source trees (not the real five docs) so a hardcoded list fails;
consumer trees per pin shape, including the commented-pin row ceremony's
own release.yml header motivates. Also fixes the EXIT-trap exit-status
clobber the smoke run surfaced.

Port box's drill-recorded.sh (the origin of the three copies) as a
composite action on the #5 pattern: version read through lib/version.sh,
one file per version under drills/, whitespace-only records refused.
Keyed on the tree's version — -dev trees pass with a notice that says
why nothing was asserted; bare trees must show drills/<version>.md with
at least one non-whitespace character.

Every case from #6's test list: the documented-flow passes (insert-above,
the stamp, prose-only), the box#122 deletion shape, the box#118 duplicate
(proven to run before every history gate, the box#143 ordering), rc
distinctness, both STRICT degradations, the file-first-added edge, the
vacuous push-to-main shape, and the action's env wiring.

Closes#9. .github/workflows/release.yml (workflow_call) replaces box's,
rig's and cast's release.yml: the merge door (facts -> decide -> notes ->
tag+publish+bump, every decision in a tested lib script) and the tag door
(the manual fallback and backfill, no bump). Plus lib/facts.sh (the merge
door's impure half, contract-tested against fixture repos with a stubbed
gh), the self-ref pin guard (.github/scripts/self-ref-check.sh + CI step +
tests), the release-exercise scratch caller (dry wiring), the end-to-end
script-chain rehearsal, and the caller + artifact-hook contracts in
docs/CONSUMERS.md.

Port box's changelog-armed.sh as the first composite action, establishing
the pattern #6 and #7 copy: action.yml passes inputs as env vars, the
co-located script stays directly runnable, and the shared libs are sourced
relative to the action so they travel with it at the consumer's pinned ref.
Port deltas per issue #5: the version goes through version_read (#3) so the
guard works for package-json trees, and the bare-version emptiness check
consults changelog_section (#4) — the guard and the publisher cannot
disagree about what a section is. Messages and the header essay keep the
box#108 / rig#66 / rig#44 / cast#108 history; this is the guard rig and
cast regain at adoption.
CI gains an action-exercise job driving uses: ./actions/changelog-armed
against a scratch armed tree — the composite wiring proven, not just the
script.
Closes#5

The six-row decision table from issue #8 as a pure script: the workflow
gathers facts (VER, BASE_VER, RELEASED, LABELED), this script decides.
Notices/refusals ported near-verbatim from box's decide step, de-repo-ified;
design lineage box#96 / rig#47 / cast#111.

The seam that lets box/rig/incubator (a VERSION file) and cast
(package.json + lockfile sync) share every other ceremony component
unchanged. Sourced, pure (no git), fail-loud on every unreadable state.
Carries cast's pkg_version discipline (node's parser, never regex) and
its lockfile-only bump incantation; refuses pre-release arithmetic
(-dev/-rc1) per box's prefix-confusion lore. The npm-backed write test
skips locally without npm but CI sets CEREMONY_REQUIRE_NPM so the skip
is a failure there — the case can never quietly stop running.
Closes#3
