AC-1 names two inputs and says "both by fixture". The suite had the first and,
for the second, only a re-sweep of a BYTE-IDENTICAL body — which is the test
plan's other must-not-echo bullet, and cannot stand in for this one: an
identical body is quiet under both spellings of the decision, the one that
keys on the parse and the one that keys on the prose, so it cannot tell them
apart. Only an edit that changes the prose and preserves the parse can.
The new probe reorders the refs and adds sentences on either side, leaving the
set at {#90, #91}, and asserts the marker count, the thread's total echo count
and the issue-edit count all hold still. What it pins is that the marker is a
function of the PARSE and not of the prose around it — the property the whole
idempotency rests on.
Mutation-proven isolating: an echo that also re-fires when the declaration
prose moved since the last echo — quiet on identical re-sweeps, correct on
every set change — passes the pre-existing suite 304/0 and reds only here.
#263 landed on main after this branch's head and asserts that a healthy
assigned attention under blocked posts nothing at all. The #252 echo makes
every blocked issue carry one comment — its parse — so the proxy is false
while the contract behind it is not: probe 66 draws the parse echo and no
attention diagnostic.
Re-spelled the way the same section's other cases already spell it, as the
absence of the attention-malformed marker, plus a companion assertion that
exactly one comment landed. That is strictly tighter than test -f was: this
case now fails if an attention comment appears beside the echo, which the
old form could not detect once any comment existed.
Refs #252
claude-bot: `{acme.widgets#9}` is not a reachable declared set — the clause
parser stops at the `.` and blocked_reference_records never hands the token
through, though issue_references does answer CROSS for it. The comment claimed
all four were declarations the reconciler accepts. The member stays (the
marker's contract is over the tokens the classifier admits) and the comment
now says which is which.
Refs #252
ensure_comment's any-occurrence grep answers "have I ever said this", which
is right for a flag like blocked-unparseable and wrong for a value that
changes. A -> B -> A found A's own first echo and stayed silent, leaving the
thread's newest echo asserting B while the sweep gated on A: a stale parse
presented as the current one, and the third edit did change the parsed set,
so the criterion says it speaks.
blocked_parse_echo_needed compares this parse's marker against the LAST
blockers-parsed-* marker on the thread. The read stays inside guarded_read /
skip_issue, so an unreadable history still fails closed (#247 D1) rather than
answering "nothing echoed yet" and re-posting. ensure_comment is untouched
for every other caller.
Refs #252
Anchoring every pair on the `/` spelling passed under a fix that only
taught the slug about `/` — and that fix still collapses `acme-widgets#9`,
`acme_widgets#9` and `acme.widgets#9` onto one marker. Found by mutating
the implementation to that cheap fix and watching the suite stay green on
the cases that matter. The contract is that no two distinct parses
collide, so the assertion is now every pair.
Refs #252
The marker claimed to be scoped to the parsed set's value and was scoped
to a lossy rendering of it: `tr -c '[:alnum:]' '-'` maps `acme/widgets#9`
and `acme-widgets#9` — both parses this reconciler accepts — onto one
marker, so a declaration edited between them found the old echo and said
nothing. Silence in exactly the case the echo exists to speak about.
The identity is now a digest of the exact rendered set. The readable slug
stays in front of it and decides nothing. Distinguishing `/` would have
closed the reported pair and left the class: `-`, `_` and `.` are all
legal in a qualifier and all collapse the same way, so all four are
pinned, and the sweep probe observes the second echo actually landing.
Refs #252
The idempotency contract is the marker's scope, so both directions are
pinned: an unchanged set must reuse its marker (or a 15-minute cron
repeats itself forever) and a changed one must not (or a misparse hides
under a marker the thread already carries). crew#308's negated clause is
replayed through the sweep, and the empty parse is echoed beside the
untouched `blocked-unparseable` flag.
Refs #252
The per-read guards closed the reported class — a failed read never reaches
a decision function — and left one layer standing. A pass could mutate and
only THEN reach a guarded read, fail it, and report the issue as skipped:
`stale` removed, or `needs-triage` minted, under a log line saying the
sweep had touched nothing. That is the same false report #247 exists to
close, told from the other end, and the panel reproduced it on four
separate compositions.
Fixed as the ordering invariant rather than per site. Inside
reconcile_issue_pass's subshell, run() and log() stage their effects, and
commit_staged_effects replays them in order once the pass has completed.
skip_issue emits its own line directly and exits, so the buffer dies with
the subshell. A skip therefore implies zero `gh issue edit`, zero
`gh issue comment`, and no log line about a mutation that never landed —
for compositions nobody has written yet, because reconcile_issue has no way
to mutate directly. Reads stay where they are: they may happen anywhere,
since nothing lands until the end.
Stated per site it would hold until the next composition. Two consequences
worth naming: reconcile_ruling is covered without touching lib/ruling.sh,
because it posts through the sourcing script's run()/log() — the PR surface
keeps its own and is unaffected; and a genuine crash mid-pass now also
lands nothing, where before it left the earlier mutations applied. D4's
handler string, D6's tail and D7's exit 0 are all unchanged, and the
healthy path is byte-identical: every staged write commits under the same
`>/dev/null` its call site already applied.
Refs #247
The sourced stub returned a literal `[]` to --jq callers when a fixture
was missing, where the real API answers an empty list and the filter
yields nothing. last_issue_activity then sorted `[]` beside an ISO-8601
timestamp — and `[]` outsorts a timestamp in the C locale but not in a
UTF-8 one, so the sweep dated an issue by a stub artifact on the runner
and by created_at here.
The old code swallowed the resulting `date` failure and graded the claim
on a literal 0 anyway; #247's guards turn a failed read into a skip,
which is what made the lie visible. Adopt the arrival stub's shape.
Suite green under LC_ALL=C, C.UTF-8 and en_US.UTF-8.
Refs #247
The .http-error mode applies a requested --jq filter to the error body,
so a failing comments read returns nothing rather than a JSON blob —
which is what let last_issue_activity fall back to created_at and
reclaim a live claim. With it, all three of the issue's must-fail-before
cases fail against the pre-change script, the destroyed claim included.
Pin offsite_timeline's own deliberate silence directly: the activity
read hits the same endpoint, so probe 32 now skips before the offsite
verification it used to reach (D8 leaves that read alone).
Refs #247
The PATH-stubbed gh gains a `.http-error` mode: the response body goes
to STDOUT, the reason to stderr, the status non-zero. The existing
`.error` sentinel produces empty stdout, which is the *safe* path — an
empty label set either way — and is why this class was never caught.
The three must-fail-before cases, plus the 200-`null` path a status
check alone leaves open, the suppressed-marker duplicate, the D6 tail's
count and numbers, and the crash handler proven distinct from a skip.
Refs #247
`gh api` prints a 5xx response body to stdout AND exits non-zero, and
GitHub's 5xx body is a JSON object. Inside the per-issue subshell that
payload passed `has("pull_request") | not`, emptied `.labels[]`, and
`queue_decision` — correct on the input it was handed — wrote
`needs-triage` onto a healthy epic. The run then logged `reconciled.`
and exited 0 (crew#329, #247).
errexit could not have caught it: a command whose status is tested by
`||` runs with errexit suppressed, and the suppression extends through
the whole subshell body, so the `|| log` handler is what disables the
errexit that would have aborted at the failed read. Removing the handler
revives errexit and loses #91's resilience, and an inline `set -e` does
not re-arm it. Explicit per-read checks are the mechanism.
Every read inside that subshell is now checked — the issue read on its
status AND on its payload shape (an HTTP 200 whose body is `null` exits
0 and empties the label set just the same), both reads in
`last_issue_activity`, and the comments read in
`issue_comment_has_marker`. On failure the issue is left exactly as it
is, the reason rides its own `#$n:` line, and the subshell exits with a
distinguished status the sweep counts, so a deliberate skip is not
reported as a crash and a genuine crash is still named byte-identically.
`read_failure_reason` moves to lib/read.sh beside a new `guarded_read`,
sourced by both reconcilers: labels-reconcile's copy was the only one,
and the issue surface needs the identical rule.
Refs #247
issue_probe's merged-PR argument becomes a spec list — `PR` or `PR@<iso>`
— so a probe can state merge order; the bare form keeps every existing call
site literal.
The direct-drive cases cover crew#176's shape (the lower number merged
later), agreeing orders, interleaved issues, the mergedAt tie broken by
highest PR number under both input orders, and the empty answer. The
end-to-end probe is crew#321's: a marker already standing for the
later-merged, lower-numbered PR must suppress the transition, which
selecting by number could never do.
Two static pins keep the request count honest — the sweep issues exactly two
GraphQL queries, with mergedAt selected on the merged-PR node it already
fetched.
Refs #242
One resolution point (panel_for_author) feeds set_required_bots; the
author's row when the conf defines one, the base panel= otherwise, minus
the author in either case. Bracket prefixes are matched quoted so the
case patterns cannot glob (D7, panela= tripwire). configured_label_rows
skips the rows so a dispatch bootstrap cannot mint a label named after
one. BUILDER.md/REVIEWER.md carry the one D9 wording; CONSUMERS.md
publishes the row as unreleased with the parse-failure warning.

The sweep rode the same workflow run as the PR event that woke it, so
every displacement in the shared labels-reconcile queue recorded a
CANCELLED reconcile check on some PR — fake red CI that held review
requests. The reconcile + issueflow jobs move, unchanged, to a new
reusable labels-sweep.yml behind their own caller; labels.yml gains a
trigger job that dispatches the consumer's sweep caller with the plain
GITHUB_TOKEN (workflow_dispatch is a documented no-retrigger exemption)
on every event that used to run reconcile. A displaced sweep now cancels
on the Actions tab, attached to no PR; PR checks show scope + trigger.
Because every trigger-driven wake arrives as workflow_dispatch, the event
name alone no longer separates the operator's manual bootstrap from an
event-woken sweep: the sweep caller's bootstrap dispatch input does — the
trigger passes no, a bare manual dispatch defaults to yes. The sweep
reusable also takes pr_workflow_name, exported as SELF_WORKFLOW for the
#208 reconciler (harmless to earlier ones; zero file overlap with #208).
The trigger is deliberately loud: a pin bumped without the sweep caller,
its bootstrap input, or actions: write on the labels caller goes red at
the trigger job instead of silently never sweeping again — documented in
docs/CONSUMERS.md with the split stubs and the atomic-adoption note.

Binding to the first marker occurrence dropped every later sentence of a
repeated declaration and let earlier prose hijack the parse — the false
ready promotion on rig#154. Each occurrence now contributes its own
clause, terminated at its own first ./; (unterminated -> end of input),
and the union feeds the unchanged classification and decision table.

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.

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.
