The cast half of the flow designed in heavy-duty/box#83, aligned with
box#90 and rig#40, plus the piece unique to cast: a prebuilt release
asset, because cast is the one repo where the source tarball is not the
package.
- CHANGELOG.md (box's format) with this PR's entry under Unreleased;
feature PRs land their entry as part of the PR.
- `cast --version` / `-V` answers with package.json's version, read
relative to the compiled module so a source checkout and an installed
prebuilt tree agree.
- release.yml, on EVERY tag push (no shape filter — a mismatched tag
must fail the assert loudly, not be pattern-skipped): asserts tag ==
package.json version FIRST, extracts that version's changelog section
(.github/scripts/release-notes.sh, shared with the tests; missing or
empty refuses), builds once (npm ci && npm run build && npm prune
--omit=dev), stages bin/ dist/ node_modules/ package.json as
cast-X.Y.Z/ and attaches cast-X.Y.Z.tgz to `gh release create
--verify-tag`. No tests here — ci.yml gated the merge commit, and the
suite needs age.
- install.sh grows the three channels: default = the latest release's
asset (tag resolved off the releases/latest redirect Location — no
API, no token; failure dies loudly naming CAST_REF=main, never a
silent fallback), CAST_REF=<tag> = pinned (asset first, source
fallback), CAST_REF=main = dev build-from-source. npm is required
only on the source path, and a prebuilt tree is sanity-checked
(dist/, node_modules/) before $DEST is replaced.
- test/release.test.ts drives it all offline: --version, the extraction
against fixtures (0.7.0 never matches 0.7.0-rc1) and the real
changelog, and REAL install.sh runs through all three channels with a
stub curl and a poisoned npm — including the loud no-releases refusal
with no $DEST side effects.

codex's late #85/#98 round-3 finding, valid post-merge: the needs-human
auto-request fired only when the human had NEVER reviewed, so any earlier
human comment or stale approval left a fully-approved PR labeled
needs-human with nobody actually requested — a wedged handoff.
human_request_needed() now asks whether a fresh head-current human review
is missing (live request or head-current approval → nothing to ask;
anything else → request). Five new fixtures cover the wedge, the stale
approval, the satisfied handoff, and request suppression (19 total).

Maintainer direction: body-parsing agreement was a guess, and the machine
must not guess. COMMENTED is now unconditionally a non-verdict; the judgment
that a comment-only reviewer's round passed belongs to the PR AUTHOR, who
escalates by requesting the human's review — an explicit request is a fact,
and it is the machine's top-precedence input. Auto-request survives only for
the no-judgment case: three formal head-current approvals. CONTRIBUTING and
LABELS.md state the handoff; fixtures updated (14 transitions, including
author-escalation and the three-formal-approvals path).

Round-1 blockers, all three reviewers concurring:
- COMMENTED agreement now counts: agreement_signal recognizes the live bots'
durable markers (Verdict: Approve / I agree with everything / leading ✅) —
the gate to needs-human can actually close. Formal verdicts remain the
contract (CONTRIBUTING), this is the documented transitional workaround.
- Every counting verdict is bound to the head SHA; a stale approval parks the
PR in addressing (agent owes re-request) instead of promoting unreviewed
code. CHANGES_REQUESTED blocks at any head, per GitHub's own semantic.
- reconcile serializes under ONE job-level concurrency group; scope stays
per-PR. No more cron-vs-event race on the request-the-human-once guard.
- Sweep resilience: per-PR subshell (one failure logs and continues), label
edits warn instead of wedging; the self-heal claim now matches reality
(dispatch-only bootstrap).
- The state machine is extracted pure (globals in, state out) and sourceable:
test/labels-reconcile.sh proves 14 fixture transitions — comment-only
agreement, stale approval, comment-without-verdict, human precedence and
human-block — wired into CI.

The machinery LABELS.md promised. labels.yml runs the reconciler on a
15-minute cron plus PR events (pull_request_target — every PR here is from a
fork, where pull_request gets a read-only token; no PR code is ever checked
out). The script derives each open PR's state:* from GitHub's own facts and
converges labels statelessly; stale is judged from real activity (commits,
comments, reviews), never label churn, so the sweep cannot un-stale its own
mark. actions/labeler applies scope:* from changed paths. CONTRIBUTING.md is
the guideline: the PR loop, and who sets which labels. Rehearsed with
DRY_RUN=1 against the live repo; shellcheck-clean.
