@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl: absence of the canonical coordinate is not proof of
correct arming. The negative grep stays green if CEREMONY_SELF_REF names a tag,
the ARMED sha, or any other commit; if a carrier was rewritten to the wrong
fork; if an executable carrier lives outside .github; or if a carrier simply
disappeared rather than being rewritten.
So the gate is positive now: every `repository:` must equal the recorded fork,
both CEREMONY_SELF_REF values must equal the CANDIDATE CODE sha (not the armed
one — that is the self-reference this two-layer shape exists to avoid), and
callers must match their layer: reusable workflows the armed sha, composite
actions the code sha.
With a COUNT beside the comparison. `n -eq 2` is the part that catches a
carrier which vanished, which a per-value loop cannot see — the same shape as
counting the call sites a pin is guarding rather than only checking the ones
that are there.
The canonical-coordinate grep stays as a cheap extra rather than as the proof.
Wording, same review: steps 1 and 2 advance the tip of ONE fork branch, so
reset removes that branch, not "candidate and armed branches".

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl found that the procedure was not executable as
written, and the reason is structural rather than a wording slip.
The candidate's workflows carry `repository: heavy-duty/ceremony` beside
`ref: ${{ env.CEREMONY_SELF_REF }}`, so arming must rewrite them. But
rewriting CREATES A NEW COMMIT, and a commit cannot embed its own object ID. So
a single-layer arming is self-referential: pin the callers to the pre-rewrite
SHA and they load the UNARMED workflows; pin them to the post-rewrite SHA and
you are asking that commit to contain itself. My step 3 asked for exactly that.
Two layers, stated as a table because the distinction is the whole thing:
candidate code SHA the immutable tree under test — actions/, lib/
armed workflow SHA a child commit whose workflows point at the fork and
whose CEREMONY_SELF_REF is the candidate code SHA
And callers pin by layer, because they are not the same thing: composite
actions to the candidate code SHA, reusable workflows to the armed SHA, which
is the only revision whose inner checkout is rewritten.
The completeness check becomes a mechanical non-zero gate — `git grep` for
executable `uses:`/`repository:` carriers over the ARMED tree, exiting non-zero
on any hit — rather than "every remaining hit must be prose". A partial rewrite
does not announce itself: it silently tests canonical main.
The result issue records both SHAs, not one, or a later reader cannot tell
which tree answered.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's three operational corrections.
1. ARMING REWRITES THE COORDINATE. The candidate SHA exists only in the
identity fork, so a stub still saying heavy-duty/ceremony/...@<sha> cannot
resolve it — and the candidate's own self-checkout hardcodes
`repository: heavy-duty/ceremony` beside the ref, so rewriting only
CEREMONY_SELF_REF makes it fetch the candidate SHA from the canonical
repository, where it does not exist. Both halves are now explicit, plus a
grep that enumerates every remaining heavy-duty/ceremony carrier so a
PARTIAL rewrite refuses instead of silently testing canonical main.
2. RESULT ISSUES ARE NOT RESET SCOPE. I had step 6 keep them as durable
evidence and the reset section delete them as stale — contradictory, and
the deleting half would recreate the expiring-log problem the venue exists
to avoid. Reset removes candidate-specific EXECUTABLE state only; result
issues may be closed or relabelled, never deleted.
3. NO UNMEASURED CLAIMS. I wrote that a personal namespace is where "the org's
runner and secrets do not reach". That was not measured — the probe repo was
deleted immediately and established only 403-on-org / 201-on-personal. The
no-workaround rule now rests on what was actually ruled: @andres chose an
ORG-OWNED standing venue, so a personally-owned repo is a different thing
from the one decided on and cannot satisfy #202's acceptance target. If
runner reach matters, it gets measured once the venue exists.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's four gaps.
1. BRANCH UPDATED TO CURRENT MAIN. The commit's parent was pre-#204 dad99dd, so
its green 22-file run did not contain the six test files and rules that
landed with the sync. Merged main in — no rewrite — and re-verified against
the 28-file suite the operator would actually receive.
2. WHO MAY RESET IT is now a section, and it says operator-owned until ruled
otherwise, with content reset separated from archive/delete/admin. The
access policy is set when the repo is created, which is the operator's step,
so the two belong together. Flagged for @andres rather than assumed.
3. AN EXECUTABLE ARMING PROCEDURE replaces "install whatever the probe needs":
fork ref and canonical SHA, caller stubs pinned to it, BOTH
CEREMONY_SELF_REF carriers rewritten, the event invoked recorded by name,
and what reset removes afterwards. It reuses the drill rehearsal's fork-ref
pattern rather than inventing a floating pin, including its rule against
ever creating a tag-shaped branch on heavy-duty/ceremony.
4. THE EVIDENCE CONTRADICTION IS RESOLVED. "Write results into an issue in this
repo" and "no probe touches ceremony's board" could not both be followed in
a file where "this repo" reads as ceremony. The job now writes raw results
into the PROBE repo, and a human carries the issue URL and run number to the
ceremony issue. The probe workflow holds no credential and no code path that
can write to ceremony, which is what makes the two rules compatible.
Placement: the operational contract moves to docs/RUNNER-PROBES.md, with a
short cross-link in drills/README.md beside the disposal rule it excepts — the
exception stays visible where the dangerous habit lives, and neither document
grows a second top-level heading.
