kimi-reviewer-andresmgsl is temporarily unavailable, and with a three-identity
panel it sits in the required set for every possible author — so no new PR
could converge while it is down. glm-reviewer-andresmgsl takes the seat.
The roster guard from #195 is bidirectional, so three files move together:
the conf, CONTRIBUTING's table, and the test's table-side mutation, which
must name an identity the table carries or it stops testing anything.
Refs #222
All three schedule-simulation probes carried the assignment the script no
longer reads. This time the head was verified clean BEFORE the push, not
after. Refs #215
The script stopped reading GITHUB_EVENT_NAME with the input gate; the
previous commit pushed with this red because I trusted an && echo that
printed nothing. Refs #215
The venue drill caught what no hermetic test had: with the workflow_call
bridge delivering "no" perfectly, drill runs 16/17 still bootstrapped. The
script gated on GITHUB_EVENT_NAME = workflow_dispatch and never read
$BOOTSTRAP at all; the wrapper's only coupling was exporting the event name
for yes. Correct while an operator's manual dispatch was the only dispatch
there was — inert from #209 on, when the trigger job made every machine wake
a workflow_dispatch event. Runs 459/523 bootstrapped for this reason, not
for the input-delivery defect, which is real but was never the operative
cause of the observed re-upserts.
The script now gates on ${BOOTSTRAP:-no} = yes; the wrapper passes the input
through untouched; the hermetic suite pins the exact regression pair (a
dispatch event with no/unset creates and deletes nothing) alongside the
yes path's full create+delete assertions.
Refs #215
A called workflow cannot read the caller's dispatch inputs on this forge:
github.event.inputs is empty inside workflow_call even though the top-level
caller receives the value in both contexts (probe runs 6/7). The sweep's gate
read exactly that, so every dispatch-woken sweep bootstrapped — runs 459 and
523, ~20 label upserts per board event — while the trigger honestly logged
bootstrap=no.
The bridge, per the #6361 contract: labels-sweep.yml declares
workflow_call.inputs.bootstrap (string, default "no"); the dogfood caller and
the published CONSUMERS.md stub pass it via with.bootstrap with empty mapped
to "no" at the caller — kimi's edge: on schedule the top-level context is
empty, and an empty that slipped through would have turned every cron into a
bootstrap. The gate feeds the declared input to labels-reconcile unchanged,
so an invalid value meets the action's own yes|no refusal.
test/labels-bootstrap.test.sh pins every hop: the declared boundary, both
gates as the identity, no expression reading github.event.inputs (scoped to
${{ }} bodies — the file's prose names the context to explain it), the two
pass-throughs byte-exact, and the four value paths driven through the shipped
expressions into the action's real validator. Mutations: dropping the
declaration reds 4, dropping the pass-through reds 3, restoring the old gate
reds 2.

Plain `env` preserves the parent environment, and on the runner every step
arrives with GITHUB_API_URL set — the premise of the fix under test — so the
unset-refusal case inherited it and never exercised the refusal. It passed
only in a dev shell that lacks the variable: the environment distance
UPSTREAM-SYNC.md step 7 warns about, in the test written the same day
(@kimi-reviewer-andresmgsl, run 468).

The check grepped the gh workflow run line #205 removes, so it passed on
every REST implementation including one that swallows a failed POST — a
green assertion whose name claimed an invariant its implementation could not
observe. Its replacement lives in test/labels-dispatch.test.sh: a transport
failure must fail the extracted step, plus a code-aware no-|| true guard
(@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl, !213 review round 2).
Refs #205
Three corrections from @codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's review of 935a813.
1. `api="${GITHUB_API_URL:-https://api.github.com}"` guessed GitHub when the
variable was absent — driven with a recording curl, it reported success
after POSTing to api.github.com from this forge. That is the "Never
'probably github'" rule, and the same unset-environment refusal #201 just
established for docs-sync. It now refuses before any request, and the test
asserts zero calls were made: refusing after a POST is not refusing.
2. The "never silenced with || true" invariant was still asserted by grepping
the gh line this port removed, so it passed on any REST implementation
including one that swallows a failed POST. It is rebound behaviourally: a
curl that dies at the transport must fail the step. Doing that revealed the
step failed with a bare exit 7 and no sentence, so it now names the failure
— owning the diagnostic is the whole point of the surrounding code.
3. docs/CONSUMERS.md and both caller comments still described `gh workflow
run` as the mechanism. They describe the REST dispatch now, and the manual
bootstrap command carries a forge-neutral curl form beside the gh one: a
cross-forge runbook that sends this forge to a missing binary is wrong even
where the prose around it is right.
Refs #205
The action's entire gather was one GraphQL query asking GitHub for its own
parse of the closing keywords. Forgejo serves no GraphQL at all — /api/graphql
404s here and a forgejo-runner job arrives with GITHUB_GRAPHQL_URL empty — so
there was nothing to translate it to. It is re-expressed, as #188 re-expressed
its own two GraphQL sites, over two reads both backends serve plus this repo's
own parser.
The graph was called authoritative for including "closing keywords and sidebar
links". Those halves resolve differently here: Forgejo has no sidebar-link
concept, so nothing is lost there, but it DOES honour closing keywords in
commit messages. A body-only port would miss a PR that closes an issue from a
commit subject — exactly the contradiction this action exists to catch — so
the closing set unions the body and every commit message.
The hasNextPage refusal is relocated, not dropped: --paginate carries the
forgejo backend's x-total-count completeness proof, and a short gather refuses
rather than returning a partial verdict.
lib/issue_references.sh extracts the LOCAL/CROSS classifier from
issueflow-reconcile's executable. closes_references.sh's header recorded that
dependency in prose; a composite action cannot source a reconciler to borrow
one function, because sourcing a reconciler runs one.
refs-guard.yml's github-only gate is removed in the same change. A portable
action behind that gate is a guard that passes by never running.
The contract test drives the boundary on BOTH backends with stubs at the
transport. Mutations: body-only parse reds 4 cases, dropping --paginate reds
the partial-gather case, ignoring a failed read reds 9.
Refs #199
`.github/workflows/labels.yml` dispatched the sweep with `gh workflow run`,
the eighth runtime gh call site the 0.6.0 merge reintroduced and the only one
!204 did not port. On this forge the runner carries neither gh nor a GitHub
API, so the step refused and the entire event-driven reconcile path ended
there — every transition waiting up to an hour for the scheduled sweep.
The workflow-dispatch endpoint has the SAME shape on both forges:
POST {api}/repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/workflows/{file}/dispatches
{"ref": "<branch>", "inputs": {...}} -> 204, empty body
so the step no longer decides a forge at all. The CEREMONY_FORGE_CLIENT=gh
declaration and both inline refusals are removed rather than ported, and
test/no-runtime-gh.test.sh now asserts their ABSENCE — an opt-out with no gh
behind it is a standing permission slip.
The ref is supplied explicitly and taken from the repository, never from
GITHUB_REF_NAME: on a pull_request_target run that is `<n>/merge`, which is
not a branch. A non-204 still fails the job, keeping the misconfiguration
alarm the trigger exists to be, and the diagnostic explains Forgejo's empty
500 rather than passing a bare status to a reader who will go looking for an
outage that is not there.
test/labels-dispatch.test.sh extracts the shipped step and executes it against
a recording stub, asserting the method, endpoint, ref and inputs actually
sent. Dropping the inputs or ignoring a non-204 both red the suite.

Found by the first post-merge sweep after the 0.6.0 merge — #198's own
acceptance probe — not by review. Three PRs in one run:
labels: #208: could not read the head commit's date:
forge_api: HTTP 404 from 'GET repos/heavy-duty/ceremony/commits/f3a1336…'
— blocker:unrequested not judged this pass
Measured against this instance:
forgejo repos/{o}/{r}/commits/{sha} -> 404
forgejo repos/{o}/{r}/git/commits/{sha} -> 200, date under `.created`
github repos/{o}/{r}/commits/{sha} -> 200, date nested
A fourth asymmetry, alongside the three lib/forge-forgejo.sh's header already
records. #198 ported this call site onto the shim with GitHub's path unchanged
— correct against GitHub, and the block it lives in (#236 D2) arrived WITH the
merge, so nothing here had ever executed it.
So it becomes a verb rather than a path at the call site: the caller wants one
timestamp and should not have to know either shape.
Cost while it stood was bounded and loud rather than silent — guarded_read
refused and the sweep said so — but blocker:unrequested could never be judged
on this forge.
The tests pin each backend's PATH and FIELD, because a stubbed forge_api cannot
catch a wrong path; that is exactly how this shipped and why it took a live
sweep to find. Swapping the paths reds the forgejo pair; swapping the fields
reds the github one.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl found the subtlety my board fixture could not reach:
BOARD_RECORDS filters an object-valued row out of the LIST before the per-issue
guard ever sees it, so no board fixture alone can prove the scalar stand-down.
My #64 case proved the gather excluded it, not that reconcile_issue_pass did.
The fixture that isolates the site is a deliberate mismatch: the LIST row is
null-valued, so the board gather admits #65 — and the INDIVIDUAL payload the
sweep then fetches is object-valued. Only reconcile_issue_pass's own guard can
stand that down.
Three rows over the same number, so the guard cannot pass by standing
everything down or by admitting everything:
payload object-valued -> NOT reconciled
payload null-valued -> reconciled
payload key absent -> reconciled (the GitHub shape)
Mutating ONLY the scalar predicate now reds three BEHAVIOURAL rows plus the
pin, where before it red only the pin and a neighbour. pass_disc is gone: it
repeated the predicate inside the test helper and never called production —
which is the same isolated-expression trap, one layer down, in the fix for it.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's three, and items 1 and 2 were still open after
bada4ff — his review predates that push, but only item 3 (release bodies) was
actually answered by it.
TRAVERSAL, not a non-empty gather. The board case asserted the board was not
read as empty; #60 was `ready` and therefore produced no observable effect, so
nothing proved reconcile_issue_pass had run over it. #60 now carries NO queue
state, so traversal has a deterministic outcome — needs-triage is minted and
logged — and the row asserts that.
THE SCALAR SITE, through the real path. My first attempt asserted the jq
expression the function contains, which is exactly the shape that let this
regression through: the isolated discriminator rows passed the whole time the
gather was blind. A hand-wired probe around reconcile_issue_pass needed so much
internal setup that it would have been testing my scaffolding, so the same
board harness drives it with one row flipped — object-valued must NOT be
reconciled as an issue, and the sweep must then correctly report the board as
empty OF ISSUES.
Per-site mutation, all three now behavioural rather than pin-only:
revert BOARD_RECORDS -> 4 red
revert release_bodies -> 2 red
revert reconcile_issue_pass -> 3 red

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's two scope items, applied before the first review
round rather than after.
1. THE GUARD IS COMMENT-AWARE, WITH CONTROLS. It already stripped comments —
it has to, because the #188 warning that explains why has("pull_request") is
wrong contains the string. Without controls that was an untested property,
and the pressure it creates is real: a raw grep would push a builder into
deleting the very warning that prevents recurrence. Two fixtures now prove
it: the explanatory comment is allowed, an executable jq filter is rejected.
2. ALL THREE SITES ARE DRIVEN BY BEHAVIOUR. The pin makes any revert red, but a
pin proves a string is absent, not that each replacement means the intended
thing:
BOARD_RECORDS the forgejo-shaped board is not read as empty
release_bodies an open `release` issue whose gate holds an open
member makes a claimable NON-member draw a window
flag — empty carriers, no flag, so the row
discriminates the site instead of merely reaching it
reconcile_issue_pass the scalar payload: key-present-null is an issue,
object-valued is a PR, key-absent is still an issue
The release_bodies row did NOT discriminate on its first write — it asserted
an issue number that BOARD_RECORDS also produces, so reverting the site left
it green. Caught by mutating each site separately rather than trusting the
suite total.
Mutation, per site: BOARD_RECORDS 3 red, release_bodies 2 red,
reconcile_issue_pass 2 red.

issueflow-reconcile has been blind on this forge since the 0.6.0 merge landed.
Run 368 — #198's own post-merge acceptance probe — printed:
issueflow: no open issues.
issueflow: reconciled.
over a board of nine.
Every Forgejo entry CARRIES the `pull_request` key, valued null on an issue, so
`select(has("pull_request") | not)` selects zero rows. Measured again today:
#209 (an issue) has the key valued null; #208 and #207 (PRs) have it valued as
objects.
This is mine. #188 fixed exactly this and the file's own comment at :1113
states the rule, with :1121 already using it correctly. Resolving hunk 4 of the
merge I took upstream's board block wholesale and carried the wrong
discriminator into three sites — the gather, the release-body gather, and
reconcile_issue_pass — in the PR whose stated purpose was to stop blind sweeps
reporting success.
Cost while it stood: no issue transitions, no claim reclaims, no nudges, no
board flags — and no `post-merge` transitions, which is why #192 and #198 both
still read `claimed` after their PRs merged, and why #198's own closure
criterion could not complete.
Two guards, because a comment did not hold:
* A GATHER-LEVEL CASE against a Forgejo-shaped fixture — every entry carrying
the key. The existing discriminator cases assert jq expressions in
isolation and passed throughout this regression; they never ran the gather
that uses them, which is precisely how it survived review.
* A SOURCE PIN forbidding has("pull_request") on this surface, so a future
sync cannot reintroduce it 40 lines below the comment forbidding it.
Reverting the board gather reds both. Reverting reconcile_issue_pass reds the
pin.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl reproduced it again, with one file: scanned_paths()
said "tracked" and used `find`, which walks the working directory and knows
nothing about the index.
Not pedantry — ci.yml extracts shellcheck.tar.xz, actionlint.tar.gz and their
binaries INTO the checkout before the suite runs, and any developer cache sits
there too. Today none happens to carry a matching marker; that is luck, not a
property, and a false red on a downloaded tarball would be indistinguishable
from a real finding.
`git ls-files -z` makes "tracked" executable rather than prose.
The fixtures become tiny git repositories, because a fixture that is only a
directory is invisible to ls-files and every must-fail below it would have
passed vacuously — the same trap as the earlier teeth that never invoked the
guard. Plus the negative case he asked for: an untracked marker-bearing cache
file is ignored, and the moment it is TRACKED the guard sees it.
Reverting discovery to find reds three.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl did not argue this one, he reproduced it: an
`actions/*/action.yml` declaring CEREMONY_FORGE_CLIENT and a workflow written
`.yaml` rather than `.yml`, both invisible to the hand-picked globs, guard
still 21/21 green.
The first is not an edge case — `actions/*/action.yml` is this repository's
normal composite structure and a client declaration there IS a forge decision.
The second shows `*.yml` was never a complete workflow surface.
So discovery walks the tree and EXCLUDES by class rather than enumerating
directories, depths and extensions. Excluding is the safer default: a new file
type arrives scanned rather than invisible. Out of scope are .git/, test/
(whose harness asserts these tokens by design), changelog.d/ and *.md — prose,
including drills/, which stays in the inventory because its records are
forge-specific by CONTENT while a record mentioning a selector verb in prose is
not a decision.
Both of his reproductions are now fixtures driving the real no_unlisted, and
restricting discovery back to *.sh reds four cases.
The documentation claim is aligned with what the guard does rather than what
the table implies: it checks forge DECISIONS in executable and configuration
files; it is not a diff against upstream, so drills/ and labels.conf are listed
by judgement rather than found by scan. Saying otherwise made labels.conf and
drills/ look like evidence of completeness while action.yml was invisible.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's five points. Three were correctness, and one of
them found that my must-fail cases could not fail.
1. THE OBJECT IS MANDATORY. UNVERIFIABLE-HERE is gone: a missing ref, an absent
object and a non-ancestor are three distinct refusals. The ref is now the
FULL 40-character SHA, and ci.yml fetches exactly that object before the
suite. "Runs offline" means the TEST reads local evidence; it never meant CI
may omit the evidence and pass.
2. THE SCAN COVERS WHAT THE INVENTORY CLAIMS. It walked shell under four globs
and never looked at workflows, .github/labels.conf or drills/ — three
categories the inventory governs. Widened, and it immediately found four
real blind spots on merged main: refs-not-closing's declaration,
labels.yml's inline forge decision, refs-guard.yml's GitHub-only scheduling
and release-exercise.yml's pinned CEREMONY_FORGE. All four are now inventory
entries with the issue that removes them, because a delta location with no
exit is indistinguishable from one nobody noticed. A file that DECLARES a
client is no longer exempt as a "consumer" — only files that merely CALL the
shim are.
3. THE TEETH NOW DRIVE THE GUARD. They asserted the predicates separately and
never invoked no_unlisted, so the guard could have been `return 0` and both
must-fail rows would still have passed. SCAN_ROOT is a parameter now and the
cases build a tree, add an unlisted decider — shell AND workflow, so
coverage cannot regress to the old glob — and assert the real top-level
check fails naming it. Replacing no_unlisted with `return 0` reds five.
4. PATH MATCHING, NOT PREFIX MATCHING. `drills/` accepted `drills-old/x` and
`lib/forge.sh` accepted `lib/forge.sh.backup`. Exact for files, `dir/` for
directories, with both negative boundaries covered.
5. THE IMMUTABLE SHA IS CAPTURED AT FETCH. The runbook now takes
upstream_sha=$(git rev-parse gh/main) once and merges and records that
value. This is not hypothetical: while this PR was in review upstream moved
from 8c3a4d1 to 08e2912, and re-reading gh/main at recording time would have
written a commit this tree does not contain. I caught that by walking into
it.

The third child of #197, written immediately after performing the sync it
describes, while the findings are still first-hand.
docs/UPSTREAM-SYNC.md carries the procedure and the six standing resolutions,
each with the issue that decided it, so they are not re-argued every sync. The
parts that are not obvious from the outside, and that the 0.6.0 sync paid to
learn:
* THE AUDIT STEP. `git merge` takes upstream's side wherever only upstream
moved a region, so a function upstream ADDED to a file this tree owns
arrives with no conflict and no question. Reviewing the hunks cannot find
it — four reviewers read the same diff and each found a different subset.
That was eight runtime `gh` call sites in three files and two file types.
* THE SAME MECHANIC APPLIES TO STATE. A resolved region can remove a producer
whose consumers auto-merged, and those consumers degrade to empty rather
than erroring, so nothing goes red. Three such seams in one sync.
* VERIFY WHERE IT RUNS. "Green locally" was wrong three times, for three
different reasons: shellcheck-all lints TRACKED files so a new file's first
lint is meaningless; CI pins shellcheck 0.10.0; and the runner's jq 1.6
exits 0 where 1.7 exits 4 on `jq -e` with empty input — which was not a
test problem but a guard accepting an unreadable read.
* TEST THE MERGE RESULT. Forgejo tests heads, never what two branches produce
together, and two green PRs did produce a red tree in this sync.
* AFTER MERGING, CHECK THE SWEEP RECONCILED SOMETHING. The first post-merge
run was green and had done nothing.
.upstream-ref records the carried commit in machine-readable form beside the
CHANGELOG's prose. test/upstream-delta.test.sh asserts every forge-DECIDING
file is named in the inventory — offline, comment-aware, and refusing rather
than skipping when the ref is missing. Shim CONSUMERS are allowed by name, so
a seventh consumer is silent and a seventh decider is not.
docs/CONSUMERS.md now states that two ceremonies answer to the same version
number and how a consumer says which one it pinned.
Must-fail, both from the issue's test plan: scattering a forge_detect branch
into an unlisted file reds the guard; blanking .upstream-ref reds it too.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl caught a test that describes evidence it does not
collect — mine, and it is the class this PR is about.
Two cases were titled "naming the verb, path and status" and asserted only the
substring "500". The PUT boundary happened to satisfy the contract because
forgejo_write already passes "PUT $endpoint" to forgejo_http_ok. The GET
boundary did not: the diagnostic was `HTTP 500 from 'repos/o/r/issues/5'`, with
no verb at all — so a caller could not tell a failed READ from a failed WRITE
of the same path, and #192's acceptance criterion asks for exactly that
distinction.
Reads now pass "GET $endpoint" on both non-paginated and paginated paths, and
the two tests assert the complete expected diagnostic as one substring rather
than a status code that any failure would contain. Reverting the verb reds the
GET case.
Also, per the same review: the failed GET is asserted to write nothing, and the
failed PUT to have attempted exactly one write.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's four gaps, all real, all taken.
1. PRESERVED IDS COME FROM THE ISSUE. The removal path read only .labels[].name
and then re-resolved every preserved label through the repository-wide list
— so preservation depended on a paginated read with nothing to do with this
issue, and an incomplete one would drop a bystander. It now keeps
name<TAB>id from the issue payload, subtracts removals by name, and resolves
ONLY added names. Fixture: a bystander on the issue with id 14 that is
absent from the repo-list fixture entirely must still survive the PUT.
2. AN ABSENT REMOVAL WRITES NOTHING. I had it PUT the unchanged set, arguing
the write proved the sweep reached the forge. The GET already proves that,
and replacing a set with itself opens ceremony#128's window for no state
change — most calls here are exactly this case, since the reconcilers call
--remove-label unconditionally. Short-circuits when the wanted set equals
the current one. This was the policy-shaped choice flagged for @andres; the
reviewer's reasoning is better than mine was.
3. EVERY LABEL MUTATION REACHES THE TALLY. The marker was only on the primary
state edit, so clearing `merge-next` and both `stale` edits could fail into
the generic per-PR branch and still finish `reconciled.` and exit 0. All
four sites go through one `label_write` helper, so a future call site cannot
reopen it by forgetting to mark itself. Probe: a failed NON-primary write
(unstale on a blocked PR) must fail the sweep.
4. NO SUCCESS TOKEN IN A FAILURE TAIL. "NOT reconciled." still contains
"reconciled.", which a log-tail consumer greps for. The line is now
"sweep incomplete", and the test asserts the whole output is free of the
token rather than only of the success prefix.
Also added the two fault boundaries the acceptance plan named and the fixtures
never proved: a failed current-label GET and a failed replacement PUT, each
non-zero with the backend's verb/path/status diagnostic.
Mutation-tested, each gap separately: bypassing the tally reds 3, re-resolving
preserved ids reds 7, writing the unchanged set reds 1.

Two defects, one cause, and the second is why the first survived a week.
THE WRITE. Removal was a per-label `DELETE .../labels/{id}` loop. On this
instance that call returns HTTP 500 for every removal under the token the
sweep actually holds — measured inside Actions, probe run 701, where the same
`PUT .../labels` with the desired full set returns 200 including the empty set
for a full clear. A PAT gets 204 on the same DELETE, which is exactly why it
went unseen: it fails only for `${{ github.token }}`.
Net effect before this: on Forgejo the state machine could only ever ADD
labels. Every `state:*` transition needing the previous state cleared and every
`blocker:*` that should lift was inert. Both PRs open right now carry stale
`blocker:*` labels that are false and that nothing can remove.
So the removal path is read-current, compute-wanted, one PUT — the same shape
the assignee branch beside it already used. An ADD-ONLY call keeps its additive
POST: ceremony#128 lost a `release` label to a read-modify-write that clobbered
a concurrent set, and forge_labels_add stays pinned against ever doing that.
The window is accepted here and only here, where the caller asked to REMOVE
and no additive verb can say that. An unresolvable --add-label refuses before
any write, so a replacement PUT can never drop a label nobody asked to remove.
THE REPORTING. `labels-reconcile` logged `WARNING: label edit failed`, fell
through, and `main` printed `reconciled.` and exited 0 — while
`issueflow-reconcile` treated the identical 500 as fatal. One cause, two
contradictory policies, and the wrong one hid the write defect.
A failed write is fatal now, and the tally reaches main's exit code. That
second half is load-bearing: making reconcile_pr fatal alone is not enough,
because the loop swallows a per-PR non-zero into a log line and finishes. The
per-PR tolerance is right and stays — one bad PR must not blind the board — but
it now applies to READS. A sweep that could not write exits non-zero and never
prints `reconciled.`
The diagnostic says what was attempted and that it did not happen. The old text
blamed a missing label and told the operator to bootstrap, when the label was
present and the call returned 500 — #101's rule is report, do not diagnose.
Mutation-tested, all three ways: restoring the warn-and-continue reds 5 cases,
removing the tally reds 2, restoring the DELETE loop reds 7.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's second review, both points taken.
The refs action goes back to `forge_preflight || exit 1`. 97e63ac had it exit 0
with a notice so the PR check would not be red, and that conflated two
different questions: "this action cannot produce a verdict" is the ACTION's
contract and must stay a refusal, while "this check should not block the
board" is the CALLER's decision. The caller now carries it —
refs-guard.yml skips unless github.server_url is github.com, mirroring
forge_detect positively. A skipped check is a green head; an action that
reports success it did not earn is not. The leaked preflight_err temp file
goes with the revert.
The workflow guard asked the wrong question. `command -v gh` alone passes the
moment a Forgejo runner image happens to ship gh, and then dispatches against
a forge that cannot serve it — the client/forge mismatch forge_preflight
exists to prevent. It decides the FORGE first now, mirroring forge_detect
positively, and the binary second. The source guard splits to match: a
declaration guarded only by binary presence is reported, with a fixture that
fails on exactly that shape.
The warning text was also wrong on the facts, as noted: issue-event sweeps ARE
this caller's event-driven wakes, so they are precisely what is lost. It now
says the hourly scheduled sweep survives and every event-driven wake through
this caller does not, until #205.
Point 1 of that review — jq 1.6 accepting an empty payload — was already fixed
in 728102a, pushed before the review landed.
Verified under the runner's jq 1.6 as well as 1.7: 28 test files, 0 failed
both ways. shellcheck 0.10.0 (CI's pin), actionlint, self-ref, marker,
vendored, changelog-armed all clean with every file tracked.

@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's blocker 1 is right and the filename exemption was
the wrong shape. It exempted the whole FILE — any later `gh` call anywhere in
labels.yml would have ridden in free — and it let the merge ship a step that
dies with `command not found` on every sweep on this forge, which #197's bar
does not permit.
The declaration mechanism already existed; a workflow simply could not reach
it. It can: `CEREMONY_FORGE_CLIENT: gh` in the step's env is the same
declaration actions/refs-not-closing carries, and the refusal that a script
gets from forge_preflight is inline here because a workflow has no shell to
call it from. The dispatch now warns by name, cites #205, and exits 0 rather
than reddening every sweep for a known gap.
So the guard needs no exemption list at all. It now requires the pair —
declared AND refusing — and reports a declaration that carries no refusal,
which is a permission slip for `command not found`.
That predicate was wrong on its first write, and its mutation test caught it:
`refuses_when_unavailable` matched the word `forge_preflight` inside
labels.yml's own comment explaining that it has NO forge_preflight to call. A
guard reading prose as evidence is the blind sweep again, in the guard written
to forbid it. Comments are stripped now, as gh_calls already stripped them.
Blocker 4: the nudge strips a trailing slash from the server URL. Reverting the
strip reds two cases.
Blockers 2 and 3 were already fixed in 97e63ac, before either review landed.
test/run.sh 28 files 0 failed under CI's env; shellcheck 0.10.0 (CI's pin),
actionlint, self-ref, marker, vendored and changelog-armed all clean, with
every file tracked this time.

The first head's `Refs guard` failed on this PR, correctly: spec 4's
CEREMONY_FORGE_CLIENT=gh declaration made forge_preflight refuse by name on
this forge. But that workflow runs on every pull request here, so the
declaration as first written turns every future PR red until #199 lands —
blocking the board for a gap that already has its own issue.
Refusing and scheduling are different questions. This action must never
produce a verdict from a graph it did not read, and it does not: on a forge it
cannot speak it now says so by name, cites #199, states that no verdict was
produced, and reaches the forge zero times. A preflight failure for any other
reason stays fatal, and on a forge it CAN speak nothing changes.
Also: five SC2016 findings in test/no-runtime-gh.test.sh. They were invisible
locally because shellcheck-all.sh lints TRACKED files and the guard was still
untracked when I ran it — a new file is exactly the case that check cannot
see. Verified this time against CI's pinned shellcheck 0.10.0 with the file
committed.
test/run.sh: 28 test files, 0 failed, under CI's CEREMONY_REQUIRE_* env.
shellcheck, actionlint, self-ref, marker and vendored guards all clean.

`git merge` of upstream `8c3a4d1` onto `dad99dd`, common ancestor `84bb1a4`.
18 hunks in 10 files; `lib/forge.sh`, `lib/forge-github.sh` and
`lib/forge-forgejo.sh` conflict in none and come out byte-identical.
The resolutions the issue decided: VERSION and both CEREMONY_SELF_REF
carriers take upstream's numbers; `.github/labels.conf` and `drills/0.4.1.md`
keep this forge's; CHANGELOG keeps both sides and names the upstream commit
this tree carries.
The part the hunks did not contain. Upstream's 0.5.0/0.6.0 work added whole
functions to files this tree already owned, so `git merge` took its side
without raising a conflict — and with them, EIGHT runtime `gh` call sites
that #188 had removed. Seven are ported onto the shim: two reads and four
comment writes in issueflow-reconcile, and labels-reconcile's HEAD_COMMIT_AT
read. The eighth is `gh workflow run` in labels.yml, which a workflow cannot
declare a client for and whose Forgejo equivalent this instance answers with
500 rather than a 4xx — named with its reason rather than ported on a guess.
test/no-runtime-gh.test.sh makes the rule mechanical, because reviewing the
diff could not: four reviewers reading it each found a different subset, and
the contract suite stubs `gh`, so a reintroduced call site passes it.
Three seams the resolution decides are silent when resolved wrongly, and each
now has a case that fails on the wrong one: the merged record's `merged_at`
third column (without it every sort key ties and the highest PR number comes
back), the open gather's one-BODY-row-per-line feed (a whole decoded body as
one record loses every declaration including the first), and the whole-board
read whose COLLISION_FLAGS/WINDOW_FLAGS consumers auto-merged.
The open gather carries CLOSING rows as well as BODY rows. `Refs` alone would
drop every `Closes #N` link on the open side and reclaim a claim the PR was
holding — the existing base64 round-trip case is red without it.
actions/refs-not-closing declares CEREMONY_FORGE_CLIENT=gh: its only gather
is GraphQL, which Forgejo does not serve at all. #199 ports it.
test/run.sh: 28 test files, 0 failed. shellcheck and actionlint clean.
Refs #198
heavy-duty/ceremony exists on two forges and the same ref names a different
tree on each — this forge's 0.4.1 carries lib/forge*.sh, GitHub's carries none
of it. The fetch URL was hard-coded to github.com, so a consumer's `.ceremony/`
mirror was verified against a tree it never pinned, and the fetch returned
HTTP 200 while doing it: --check reported drift the consumer could not fix,
and --fix would have rewritten a correct mirror into the wrong one.
The host now comes from GITHUB_SERVER_URL, which Actions injects on both
forges and which lib/forge.sh already selects the whole backend on. Unset,
with no --source, is a refusal naming the variable rather than a guess —
the same rule the pin itself has always followed.
The fetch path had no test coverage at all: every existing row passes
--source, which overrides the fetch entirely. It is now driven against a
PATH-stubbed curl that records the URL and serves a tarball, so the real tar
pipeline still runs and which forge a pin resolves against is asserted.
