fix(labels): state:needs-human means a human could merge it right now decide_state() derived state from three inputs -- draft flag, requested reviewers, submitted reviews -- and read NOTHING about mergeability or checks. Combined with the `if requested "$HUMAN"` short-circuit at the top of its precedence, the label was sticky: once the maintainer was requested, the PR read state:needs-human through conflicts, through red CI, through a force-push that staled every approval. Nothing demoted it. Observed twice in one afternoon, in two different shapes. Three PRs sat at state:needs-human while CONFLICTING for hours -- the board inviting a merge GitHub had already disabled. And #119, after a rebase, read MERGEABLE, four green checks, state:needs-human, with ZERO reviews bound to its head: every visible signal saying "merge me" over a tree no reviewer had seen. That second shape is the dangerous one, because unlike a conflict nothing on the page contradicts it. The rule the label now keeps: state:needs-human means a human could merge this RIGHT NOW, so anything making that false outranks the request that put it there. CONFLICTING or failing checks -> state:needs-rebase (new; the agent's to fix) approvals staled by a push -> state:addressing (nobody reviewed this tree) An UNFINISHED round still yields to an explicit human request -- a maintainer pulling a PR to themselves early is deliberate, and MISSING (nobody has reviewed yet) is a different fact from STALE (everyone reviewed something else). That distinction is why the two are handled in different arms rather than collapsed. UNKNOWN mergeability is deliberately NOT treated as unmergeable: GitHub reports it for about a minute after every merge while it recomputes, and flapping every open PR through needs-rebase on each merge would be worse than the bug being fixed. A failed read of either fact degrades to the same "do not know" value, for the same reason -- an API hiccup must not relabel the board. Also adds merge-next, because a correct needs-human still does not say WHICH PR to merge first, and order matters when they conflict through CHANGELOG.md. Queue order is intent, so the reconciler never sets it; it only CLEARS it the moment the PR stops being mergeable-by-a-human -- precisely the staleness that made needs-human untrustworthy. Both live shapes are pinned in test/labels-reconcile.sh (19 -> 29 fixtures), including that UNKNOWN does not trigger needs-rebase and that a draft outranks a conflict. Proven non-vacuous: dropping the mergeability arm fails 4 assertions, dropping the STALE precedence fails 2, restoring returns 29/0.

fix(labels): an unrecognised check outcome blocks, and a staled round outranks an unfinished one Round 2. Two blockers, both real, both closing the same hole this PR exists to close — a `state:needs-human` that invites a human to merge a tree that will not merge. The check-rollup classifier enumerated the outcomes that block and let the rest fall into `else "SUCCESS"`, so ERROR, CANCELLED and STALE all read as green. Inverted: it now lists the outcomes that DON'T block — SUCCESS, NEUTRAL, SKIPPED, plus the pending set — and treats everything else as blocking. The direction is the point. The rollup mixes two closed enums (CheckRun.conclusion, StatusContext.state) and an outcome the list forgets is one we cannot certify as mergeable; the costs are not symmetric, since a false FAILURE parks the PR on the agent who looks, while a false SUCCESS is #136 exactly. Once CANCELLED blocks, superseded runs must be dropped first: a re-run does not evict the run it replaced, and this PR's own tip carries a CANCELLED `scope` beside the SUCCESS `scope` that superseded it. Each context now collapses to its newest entry before anything is judged, keyed on workflow + job name because a bare job name is only unique within its workflow. That preserves the re-run case the panel split over while still blocking a cancelled run that is the newest word. The classifier also moved out of main() into checks_state(). That is why no fixture caught this: it was inline in the fetch loop, so the fixtures could only inject CHECKS= as an already-decided string. Second, decide_state() returned from inside the bot loop on the first MISSING, so a STALE belonging to a later bot in BOTS was never read — a round that was both unfinished and staled came out needs-human over a head nobody had reviewed. The whole round is now collected before precedence is applied to it as a unit, STALE before MISSING. test/labels-reconcile.sh: 29 -> 44 fixtures, pinning the check-outcome enum, the supersede rule (both orders, plus same name in another workflow), and the mixed round at both ends of BOTS.

fix(labels): date a check run by the newest stamp it carries, not by its completion Round 3. @claude-bot-andresmgsl and @codex-bot-andresmgsl independently caught that the supersede rule added in round 2 inverted itself on the one shape its fixtures could not express: a re-run still in flight. A running check does not omit `completedAt`. `gh` marshals the Go zero time as the STRING "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z", and jq's `//` only falls through null/false, so the sentinel won the sort key and sorted before every real timestamp. The live re-run became the OLDEST entry in its context, `last` discarded it, and the run it superseded was judged instead — exactly backwards, and wrong in both directions: green + re-run in flight -> SUCCESS (should be PENDING) CANCELLED + re-run in flight -> FAILURE (should be PENDING) The first is #136 restored by the very rule meant to close it: all bots approve, mergeable, state:needs-human — over a tree whose merge button branch protection has disabled. It was also a regression from round 1, which caught it via `any(. == "")`. The second is the re-run flap the supersede rule exists to prevent, narrowed rather than removed. Fixed by taking the newest timestamp a run actually carries and discarding BOTH spellings of absent — null and the zero sentinel — rather than by reordering the fallbacks. An entry with no usable timestamp now sorts LAST rather than first, so an undateable in-flight run is never dropped in favour of a stale success. Every ambiguity resolves toward "not settled". The fixtures could not have caught this: the `run_()` helper sets only `completedAt`, so every supersede fixture was a race between two FINISHED runs. The helper now expresses an in-flight entry, and the four new fixtures assert PENDING over both a green and a cancelled predecessor. 44 -> 48; reverting just the dating expression fails 3 of the 4.

The whole round is now collected before precedence is applied to it as a unit, STALE before MISSING. test/labels-reconcile.sh: 29 -> 44 fixtures, pinning the check-outcome enum, the supersede rule (both orders, plus same name in another workflow), and the mixed round at both ends of BOTS. All verified non-vacuous against the round-1 code. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

fix(labels): state:needs-human means a human could merge it right now decide_state() derived state from three inputs -- draft flag, requested reviewers, submitted reviews -- and read NOTHING about mergeability or checks. Combined with the `if requested "$HUMAN"` short-circuit at the top of its precedence, the label was sticky: once the maintainer was requested, the PR read state:needs-human through conflicts, through red CI, through a force-push that staled every approval. Nothing demoted it. Observed twice in one afternoon, in two different shapes. Three PRs sat at state:needs-human while CONFLICTING for hours -- the board inviting a merge GitHub had already disabled. And #119, after a rebase, read MERGEABLE, four green checks, state:needs-human, with ZERO reviews bound to its head: every visible signal saying "merge me" over a tree no reviewer had seen. That second shape is the dangerous one, because unlike a conflict nothing on the page contradicts it. The rule the label now keeps: state:needs-human means a human could merge this RIGHT NOW, so anything making that false outranks the request that put it there. CONFLICTING or failing checks -> state:needs-rebase (new; the agent's to fix) approvals staled by a push -> state:addressing (nobody reviewed this tree) An UNFINISHED round still yields to an explicit human request -- a maintainer pulling a PR to themselves early is deliberate, and MISSING (nobody has reviewed yet) is a different fact from STALE (everyone reviewed something else). That distinction is why the two are handled in different arms rather than collapsed. UNKNOWN mergeability is deliberately NOT treated as unmergeable: GitHub reports it for about a minute after every merge while it recomputes, and flapping every open PR through needs-rebase on each merge would be worse than the bug being fixed. A failed read of either fact degrades to the same "do not know" value, for the same reason -- an API hiccup must not relabel the board. Also adds merge-next, because a correct needs-human still does not say WHICH PR to merge first, and order matters when they conflict through CHANGELOG.md. Queue order is intent, so the reconciler never sets it; it only CLEARS it the moment the PR stops being mergeable-by-a-human -- precisely the staleness that made needs-human untrustworthy. Both live shapes are pinned in test/labels-reconcile.sh (19 -> 29 fixtures), including that UNKNOWN does not trigger needs-rebase and that a draft outranks a conflict. Proven non-vacuous: dropping the mergeability arm fails 4 assertions, dropping the STALE precedence fails 2, restoring returns 29/0.
