Ceremony is a flat repo (#112 D3); changelog.d/135.md, 137.md, 144.md and
151.md landed with a '### Fixed'/'### Changed' heading, each individually
legal to changelog_fragment_problem, and together they made the directory
mixed-shape — 'bin/changelog-assemble 0.3.0 --check' refused on main.
Delete the heading line and its following blank line from each; every
bullet stays byte-identical (#157 D1). No fragment for this PR: its whole
diff is unpublished fragment text (#157 D2).
Closes#158

The permalink for the needs-ruling ask on #151 pointed at a comment id
that does not exist; the ask is comment 5070768876 (dan-claude-bot,
2026-07-24T14:10:34Z). Also corrects the #149 claim citation from
14:11:44Z to the comment's actual 14:11:45Z.

BUILDER.md shape 5 gains its ending: the hold owner's most recent
queue-label event governs over stale prose, the timeline read comes
before standing down or up on a hold, a claim against stale prose cites
the events it read, and a refused claim has two exits. TRIAGE.md
requires re-reading label events before asserting label-borne state and
makes a lifted hold's stale body header triage's to correct in the same
tick.
Closes#154

The Reviewers bullet stated a gh-search request trigger and a sequential
first-this-second-that ordering; all four reviewer boxes actually run an
org-wide pulls-API requested_reviewers sweep merged with the repos.txt
backstop, deduplicated by (repo, PR) before acting (crew@b2fd864). The
on-paper list narrows to the notifier's needs-ruling queue, repos.txt is
the registry only on the triage box, and the Status block now carries the
crew ref this description was last reconciled against.
Part of the drift #148 reported; spec and citations in #149.

Merging #143 auto-closed #137 with a post-merge criterion unmet: the PR
carried Closes#137 as doctrine required, the criterion could only be
checked after the merge, and the contract was silent on the disagreement
between GitHub's keyword and the pipeline's close authority — the same
disagreement the cross-repo carve-out already resolved, one case over.
BUILDER.md gains the second exception beside the first: when the issue
body marks a criterion post-merge, the same-repo PR uses Refs #N and
triage closes by hand on the evidence. TRIAGE.md makes the criterion
carry its own mechanism; REVIEWER.md lists Refs #N as a spec pointer and
stops treating the reference-only PR as a defect; CONTRIBUTING.md points
at the one home instead of restating. No machinery, no label (#151 D5).
Closes#151

The stub published [opened, labeled, unlabeled, assigned, unassigned,
closed] while ceremony's own caller listens on eight types — PR #32's
70db91f widened the caller by edited and reopened and the stub never
followed. Both are load-bearing: an edited body rewrites the Blocked-by
declaration the reconcile sweep parses, and a reopened issue re-enters
the queue wearing labels derived at close (#144).
The stub's list is now byte-identical to the caller's, a parity row in
test/labels.test.sh keeps it that way (red on a dropped type, a drift,
or a reorder in one file only), and one adoption note names the tag the
widened list rides in on. The caller does not narrow.
Closes#144

48a3052's only labels/reconcile entry is a queue-evicted CANCELLED (its
scope sibling in the same run passed); an all-cancelled group keeps
blocking by design under #139's rule, so only a fresh run on this head
can clear the manufactured red. No verdict binds 48a3052 yet, so this
head move stales nothing.

Both 0.2.0 drills ended at the same wall independently: bot tokens
deliberately lack delete_repo, so 'it gets deleted at the end' named a
step no builder in this fleet can perform. One drill held its release
draft in state:building retrying a 403 that cannot succeed; the other
shipped a record asserting a delete that had not happened. Step 1 now
names archive (archived:true, inside the repo scope) as the builder's
end state and the delete as the operator's, states that cleanup gates
nothing, and says why the archived leftover is safe to leave. The
record now states the disposal its author actually observed.

The three sites called ceremony#32 machinery unreleased after 0.2.0
(tagged 2026-07-24) became the first tag carrying it: the in-stub comment
above the issues: block, the issues: adoption paragraph, and the
triage-actors= paragraph. All three now state availability at 0.2.0 and
later; the 0.1.0-omission guidance and the parse-failure sentence stay —
still true. No type list moves (the caller/stub issues: subset drift is
#144, not this PR).

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

checks_state discards a CANCELLED entry only when its context group holds
at least one non-cancelled sibling — before the sort, so the duplicate the
repo-global reconcile queue evicted (after it had already attached a check
to the head) cannot outvote the success that did its work (#136a17e497,
#1334002924). An all-cancelled context never reported at all and still
classifies FAILURE; {FAILURE older, CANCELLED newest} keeps its red.
The fixture that pinned the opposite rule imagined a cancelled run
replacing a success; it never saw one that replaced nothing. Rewritten
with its reason, plus the recorded a17e497 shape, the all-cancelled
groups, and the cancelled-over-FAILURE case.
Closes#139

Same pattern as PR #136's fa76851: the labels/reconcile run for 4002924
was a queued duplicate cancelled by the repo-global concurrency group,
GitHub refuses a rerun, and the reconciler reads the cancellation as
ci-red. Nothing in the tree changes.

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).

The labels/reconcile job on a17e497 was a queued duplicate cancelled by
its repo-global concurrency group (the sweep it duplicated passed seconds
earlier); GitHub refuses to rerun it, and the reconciler read the
cancellation as ci-red. Nothing in the tree changes.

facts.test.sh: greenfield fixtures for all-zeros and empty event.before,
the bare root establishing labeled=no, and the D2 pin (an unresolvable
MERGE_SHA exits 128 and never reports base_ver=(none) — the test that
|| true would fail). release-chain.test.sh: chain() gains optional
repo/stub args; a -dev root commit is a green NOTICE ceremony=no, a bare
unlabeled root still refuses. Plus changelog.d/134.md.

A repository's first push to main is a branch-create push whose head is a
root commit: event.before is all-zeros and MERGE_SHA^1 does not exist, so
the fallback died at exit 128 before establishing a fact. The parent count
is now read via rev-list --parents (a fact, not an inferred failure), the
no-base path skips the belt-and-braces fetch and the base git show, and an
unresolvable MERGE_SHA still fails loudly.

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.

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.

The changelog-armed 'Red means' list credited armed with catching a
release that publishes fewer entries than its consumed fragments — armed
cannot see consumed fragments; that is changelog-assembled's merge-base
replay. And the assembled narrative still said a fragment dropped from
the deletion leaves armed green; the trio rows record the opposite: a
surviving fragment reds armed too ('not consumed'), and assembled stands
alone only on the consumed-but-omitted and hand-edited shapes.
