Add the mint-time membership call, the sink/source/subset invariants, and the release note while the contradictory successor-count criterion awaits triage clarification.\n\nCloses #292.
Claiming a needs-ruling issue dated it through the assigned timeline
event, silencing the 7-day escalation nudge at exactly the moment a
builder started working through it. The ruling block now reads
last_issue_comment_activity (D1); the reclaim clock keeps the assignment
(D2) because there the assignment IS the claim; post-merge hands its
evidence read to the ruling block instead of reading again (D6, D7); the
claimed branch reads both clocks at its top, before anything it posts.
LABELS.md and lib/ruling.sh now say what each surface's clock reads
(D4, D5). The #257-era order compositions move to the comments read —
the timeline is no longer an input the issue clocks take, and its
unreadability no longer holds unrelated writes hostage; that narrowing
is pinned rather than implied.

changelog.d/253.md landed on main after this branch's point with the
cite trailing the period — the crew#309 shape, the fifth fragment to
arrive with it since #262 measured two. The criterion is that
changelog.d/ is clean at the head, and the head CI reviews is the merge
with main, which is where this one surfaced.
Refs #262.
The self-guards job checks out the merge of this branch with main, so
changelog.d/253.md from #285 reaches changelog_fragment_problem there and
nowhere else; the branch alone is green. Merged rather than rebased
because the round's reviewers track head SHAs.
Refs #262.
awk runs END on the way out of an exit from a main rule, so the length
row printed mid-file was followed by the citation row it outranks — the
internal protocol line landing inside the human-facing excerpt. Found by
claude-bot and kimi-bot in #262's first round, independently and with the
same reproduction.
The guard is the reported flag the empty-heading walk in this same
predicate already uses. The fixtures are the axis 57.md could not reach:
its over-bound entry is last, so only END's flush can print. 58.md puts
one before another bullet, 59.md before a heading and after a misplaced
cite. With lib/changelog.sh alone reverted they red, which is what the
green suite was hiding.
Refs #262.
Step 1 ruled what a rollup entry means and never said which entry to
read. A job in a cancel-in-progress group displaces itself, so a head
routinely carries a CANCELLED node beside the SUCCESS that replaced it,
and read by class alone that head is not green while checks_state calls
it SUCCESS.
State the collapse ahead of the classes it feeds: newest entry by start
time, and a CANCELLED entry is not the check's word while a non-cancelled
sibling stands at the same head. All-cancelled and pending are untouched.

Re-vendor tooling and docs-sync equivalents read the pin docs/VENDORED.txt
(available at 0.5.0 and later) instead of naming the doc set themselves, so
a new doctrine file reaches every consumer at its next ordinary pin bump
with zero list edits. A hardcoded list propagates nothing and its
staleness is silent: docs-sync --check asserts byte-identity for the files
the list names and says nothing about one it omits.
What makes reading the manifest sufficient rather than merely better is
the self-guard this PR adds, tagged unreleased until the first tag carries
it, per the RELEASES.md paragraph above it.
Refs #251
The ruled-term paragraph now names its field — a check carrying a
terminal conclusion is green or not-green by that conclusion whatever
its status reports — and rules the head with no checks configured:
nothing to wait for, request straight away, no argued exception owed.
The draft-round restatement comes out so the file states the rule once.
Closes#260, closes#272 via the PR.

"a comment, a review or a commit" is the ruling nudge's house phrasing and
false on the issue surface twice over: there is no review or commit fact in
what the sweep reads, and an assignment is no longer counted here. Say
what is read, and say what does not buy another 7 days of silence.
Refs #254
LABELS.md said the sweep never reclaims post-merge and stopped there, which
now reads as 'the machine says nothing' — after this change it says one
thing, once per 7 quiet days. Plus the fragment.
Refs #254
BUILDER.md's review round assumed ready-throughout, so a builder or
reviewer meeting a mid-round draft found behaviour the doctrine never
described. Three points, doctrine not mechanism: the draft phase stays
the builder's through a fix round, ready-for-review is the builder's own
act and no engine's, and where the draft suppressed CI green is proven
at the flip with the request following it — step 1's rule at a stated
moment, not a second rule.
REVIEWER.md gains the reading that keeps a reviewer from misfiling it:
a draft carrying state:addressing is a fix round in progress.
Refs #258
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.
