`.github/labels.conf` named five identities and every one of them 404s on
this instance — a GitHub-shaped team that was never minted here. Both
consumers of that roster were inoperable in consequence: `panel=` becomes
the required-verdict set, so a review round could never converge, and
`triage-actors=` is the arrival author gate, so every issue was a stray
mint owing `needs-triage` that nobody the conf recognized could clear.
Measured on #191: stamped `needs-triage` four seconds after mint by the
arrival path working correctly, then unclosable for the rest of the day.
The mapping is @andres's ruling, recorded on #191. `cluade` holds triage
and reviews but does not build; `codex` builds; `kimi` reviews; `grok`
comes off the bench; the human row is `andres`.
CONTRIBUTING's roster table moves with the conf, including the approval
count: panel-minus-author resolves to two on this roster, not three,
because the only builder is itself on the panel. The rule is unchanged and
still stated as panel-minus-author — only the number it currently comes to
is named honestly.
test/labels.test.sh now holds the conf and the table to the same set in
both directions. It cannot reach the half that actually broke — two files
agreeing with each other and neither with the forge — but it does catch a
roster edit that touches one file and not the other, which is how a
deliberate swap becomes a silent one.
Not touched, deliberately: drills/*.md, which record runs that really
happened under the old names; REVIEWER.md, whose old-name hits are
citations and a past-event anecdote rather than roster definition.

The section is re-assembled: main's merge base now carries two fragments
(188.md and 191.md), so 0.4.1 publishes with the door port it actually
ships, and neither fragment survives its own release.
drills/0.4.1.md takes main's two-run record, with run 1's disclosures
restored — the scratch repo it used, its candidate ref, and the ~8 minutes
it spent public to read job logs. A later success does not retire a
disclosed deviation.
release-exercise stubs `gh` to answer the one API fact the ceremony path
consults. Since #191 facts.sh selects a backend, and on this Forgejo runner
it selected the forgejo one — which speaks curl and walked straight past the
stub to the live instance, read the fixture's SHA against the real
repository, found no merged release-labeled PR behind it and refused.
The exercise rehearses the WIRING — facts → decide → notes through the real
$GITHUB_OUTPUT plumbing. Which backend answers is lib/forge.sh's own
contract and is covered in test/forge*.test.sh. So the facts step now pins
CEREMONY_FORGE=github, the backend its stub is shaped for, and the stub
returns the array shape the new label read expects.
Refs #191

The 0.4.1 drill measured both doors dead on Forgejo. lib/facts.sh gathered
`released` with `gh release view` and `labeled` with `gh api .../pulls`, and
release.yml tagged and published with `gh` — none of which exist on the
runner image. The merge door therefore read labeled=no for a correctly
labeled, correctly merged ceremony PR and refused it as "a bare push";
the tag door cleared every gate and died at `gh release create`.
Both are ported onto lib/forge.sh. Two asymmetries were measured against
the live instance and its swagger rather than assumed:
* GitHub serves an ARRAY of PRs at /commits/{sha}/pulls; Forgejo serves a
single OBJECT at /commits/{sha}/pull and 404s on the plural. Both verbs
emit the array shape, so facts.sh carries one jq expression.
* GitHub creates a tag by POSTing to /git/refs; Forgejo serves that path
GET-only and creates tags at /tags. A 1:1 port of the gh call would
have 404'd forever.
The behaviour change is the second half of the bug. Any failure used to
become a definite `no`, which is safe for row 4 and catastrophic for row 5:
it is how a missing binary became "this was not a release ceremony". Now a
completed read that finds nothing is still `no` and still fail-closed, and a
read that did not complete refuses and emits no fact at all.
Four new cases in test/facts.test.sh cover exactly that, and a mutation back
to the old fail-closed-on-error behaviour kills all four and nothing else.
1014 assertions, 22 suites, shellcheck and actionlint clean.

The three stamps, in one commit as the ceremony requires: VERSION goes
bare, the self-ref pin follows it, and the changelog section is the
assembler's output rather than a hand edit.
0.4.1 is the forge release. Everything in the section comes from #188's
single fragment: ceremony stops being gh-only. `lib/forge.sh` selects a
backend from the runner's own environment, `lib/forge-github.sh` and
`lib/forge-forgejo.sh` implement one call surface twice, and the
reconcilers preflight before they sweep — so a GitHub-shaped client
pointed at a Forgejo instance is a named refusal instead of a sweep that
reads nothing and reports success.
Verified on this instance before stamping: the first post-merge `labels`
run on main (7fc9afe, task 467) came back SUCCESS — the reconciler's
first green run on Forgejo, and the evidence the section's claims are
not merely asserted.

Panel-unanimous batch that was staged unpushed on 57abe15 (#4853):
- forge_timeline: project Forgejo label events into the GitHub shape
so the ruling ladder fires on this forge (measured mapping #4849)
- forge_pr_activity: stop calling /pulls/{n}/comments (404 here); use
reviews with comments_count > 0 for inline comments (#4844)
- ci.yml: install shellcheck before lint, mirroring actionlint — the
act-22.04 runner image does not ship it
Status captured before jq so an unreadable timeline cannot report empty.
The trigger comments, CONSUMERS stub, changelog, and reusable labels.yml
comment said "events carry every real state change in seconds; the cron
only backstops a forgotten handoff." That is backwards: no subscribed
event wakes this sweep for a review verdict landing (no pull_request_review
trigger), blocker:ci-red set/cleared, blocker:conflict when another PR
merges, or the time-based stale/48h-reclaim. The hourly cron is the sole
discovery path for those four classes, not a forgotten-handoff net —
so the comments now name them and warn against deleting the cron (AC5).
codex-2 / kimi-2 (both blocking, round 2 @0a812c4b).
Round fixes on #200.
codex-1 (blocking): the issues narrowing dropped `edited`/`reopened`, but both
carry a queue-state change an event uniquely carries — `edited` a body rewrite
of the `Blocked by #N` declaration the sweep parses
(issueflow-reconcile.sh:179), `reopened` a closed issue re-entering the queue.
Dropping them tripped #199's must-fail. Narrow to
`[opened, closed, edited, reopened]`, dropping only the churn/validation
actions labeled/unlabeled/assigned/unassigned. Trigger tests now pin
edited/reopened present and the four dropped; labels.test.sh exact-list updated.
kimi (blocking): the "supersedes unreleased #144" prose was false — #144's
edited/reopened shipped in 0.3.0. Dissolved: we now keep them. CONSUMERS prose
rewritten to the real version history (0.2.0 #32 / 0.3.0 #144 / #199 narrows),
and the #137 review-request line corrected from "unreleased" to shipped-in-0.3.0.
kimi (non-blocking): reusable labels.yml comment no longer cites */15.
codex-2 (AC1 after-measurement / closing) escalated to triage on #199 — held,
not guessed.

The advisory */15 cron fired a full-board sweep four times an hour at
GitHub's 1-minute billing floor; events carry real state changes in
seconds, so the cron only backstops a forgotten handoff. Relax it to
hourly and narrow the issues: trigger to [opened, closed] — the two
actions with promptness-critical reconcile behavior — dropping the
labeled/unlabeled churn source. Per-trigger why-comments added.

The reconciler's rule was right and blind: the caller never listened on
review_requested/review_request_removed, so the one event that falsifies
(or restores) blocker:unrequested could not clear it, and a quiet repo
wore the red flag until the advisory cron (#137's timeline: 93 seconds,
cleared only by an unrelated PR's push).
- self-labels.yml + the CONSUMERS.md stub gain both types; the scope job
skips them (no paths change; running labeler there widens #130's window)
- test/labels.test.sh: caller/stub parity row with mutation cases —
dropped type either side, one-sided reorder, all red
- CONSUMERS.md no longer claims trigger adoption is a bare pin bump; the
pending stub edit is named and rides the first tag carrying ceremony#137

The mapping header still described actions/labeler@v5 + sync-labels —
the exact mechanism this PR removed; it now describes labels-scope's
base-ref read and additive POST, keeping the #128 incident. The
scope:labels row gains actions/labels-scope/** and its test, and two
fixtures derive against the real mapping so the coverage is tested, not
just present. The reconcile job comment names labels-scope instead of
labeler (grok nit 3).

Bare X.Y.Z at the head where the base says otherwise, no release label,
not a draft: the sweep emits one :⚠️: per pass naming both
versions. A warning only — release is declared intent and the reconciler
never guesses intent (LABELS.md). Version read via the API, both
backends, jq not node; unreadable reads nag nobody. Plus the yq test
contract in CI and fixture tests for the guard matrix.
Part of #130.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
actions/labeler@v5 writes the whole label set (setLabels PUT) even under
sync-labels: false, so a label applied between its read and its write is
silently removed — ceremony#128 lost `release` that way. v6/v7 write the
same way. Replace the step with actions/labels-scope: same labeler.yml
mapping (changed-files/any-glob-to-any-file subset, refused loudly
otherwise), changed paths via the API, and an additive POST as the only
write.
Part of #130.

release-exercise.yml's fixture arms with changelog.d/ and stamps through
the real assembler (#112 D12). The assembled suite's trio row expected
changelog-armed green on the dropped-entry tree — true when #116 was
written, false since #115's fragment mode landed after it (main is red at
736733e on exactly this row); the row now asserts the interaction as it
stands, and the hand-edited tree carries the only-red claim.
CONTRIBUTING's flow item, BUILDER.md's entry rule, and the PR template
checklist all point at changelog.d/<issue>.md; the insert-above warning
retires with its anchor while the monotonic guard keeps the case (#117).
Stamp 2 is one assembler-produced edit; changelog-armed's rule is stated
mode-first (fragment, then legacy, #112 D7/D8/D9); changelog-assembled
gets its operator section (#116); monotonic records D10; the two rewritten
error strings and the retired re-arm recovery follow (#117).
The flip's mechanical half (#117): the 26 entries under '## Unreleased'
move verbatim to changelog.d/<issue>.md, the heading is deleted, the
directory gains its marker README (#112 D1) and this PR's own fragment
(112.md), CHANGELOG.md's preamble describes fragments, and labeler.yml
maps changelog.d/** into scope:release-flow.
VERSION at 0.1.0-dev, the armed CHANGELOG.md, drills/README.md (what a
drill means here), the self-callers (self-release.yml, self-labels.yml —
local uses:, the one form consumers must never copy), .github/labeler.yml
for the scope job, and the three self-guards in CI. labels.yml gains the
self-consumption bypass (release.yml's twin) so the label bootstrap can run
before any release tag exists; action-exercise's armed/drill-recorded
scratch steps move to self-guards per their own eviction note.

The fixture consumer is the workspace root (a uses: step cannot cd);
ceremony rides a subdirectory checkout serving as both the local action
ref and the --source override. CONSUMERS.md gains the wiring, bootstrap,

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.

The action-exercise job commits a scratch base, marks it as an in-job
fixture branch, commits an insert-above edit, and runs the composite
action against that history — proving the wiring AND a genuine
merge-base comparison, not just an action.yml parse. Base ref passed
explicitly: the shallow PR checkout has no origin/main to resolve.

Round 1's shared blocking catch: release-exercise's call job proves the
parse but executes no steps (both doors are push-gated, by design), and
fixture-chain drives the scripts, not the workflow. The new step-replay
job executes the merge door's early sequence for real — both checkout
shapes including path: .ceremony-src, both branches of the bypass via a
matrix standing in for the repository test, the CEREMONY_DIR wiring, and
facts → decide → notes through genuine $GITHUB_OUTPUT plumbing — against
a fixture tree with a stubbed gh. Wired into PR CI as standing evidence;
PR-only, because a push-to-main workflow_call would hand release.yml the
merge door's exact gate. release.yml's honest-gap paragraph narrows to
what stays untested until #11: the doors themselves.

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.

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.

Four files under .github/: the new-issue interception (blank issues off,
Discussions link first), the work-order form mirroring TRIAGE.md's issue
contract with stable headings for #18 to parse, the PR template carrying
BUILDER.md's checklist, and light optional-only discussion forms for Ideas
and Q&A. No template applies any label — queue labels stay triage's
explicit act (LABELS.md).
