Thirty-five fragments assembled into '## 0.6.0 — 2026-08-05'; VERSION to
bare 0.6.0; the three CEREMONY_SELF_REF carriers stamped "0.6.0" in this
one commit; the three docs/CONSUMERS.md availability markers cleared to
name 0.6.0 — refs-not-closing (#218), the RELEASES.md mirror entry (#248)
and the vendored-manifest completeness guarantee (#251).
drills/0.6.0.md opens with the measurement that decides its shape: the
doors-unchanged conditions do NOT all hold at this candidate, because
lib/changelog.sh moved on the release path since the last rehearsed tag
0.4.0. A full disposable-repo rehearsal is owed and is in progress; the
record is committed early and filled from the runs as they happen.

D3b corrected the window flag to fire on `claimed` too, PR in flight or
not; the fragment still described it as a `ready` non-member, which is
the reading the ruling struck.
Two advisory flags on the issue-flow sweep, the mechanical backstop for
#288's collision rule and #292's window rule. Both are prose today, and
both failed silently on the same morning: #284 was minted `ready` into a
file another issue held claimed with a PR in flight, and six `ready`
non-members raced an emptying gate. #262 measured the pattern — the same
class of rule, once in a guard, produced zero misses.
Comments only (D1): no label write, no state change, no new label. The
sweep never guesses intent; it states the board fact and triage resolves.
The collision key is the title's em-dash prefix NORMALIZED, because the
2026-08-04 miss spelled one deliverable two ways — `actions/issueflow-reconcile`
against bare `issueflow-reconcile` — so exact-prefix matching would have
missed the pair it was written for. One leading path segment comes off,
then every extension; a `+`-joined title matches on any segment.
The flag asks for a CHAIN, not a fan (#288 D3): within one key each issue
names the newest open carrier below it, so the declaration it asks for
releases exactly one successor per close.
A standing window is a release issue whose gate still holds an OPEN member.
The board read IS the open set, so membership decides openness with no
extra call, and an all-closed gate is the emptied gate the release's own
blocked -> ready promotion answers — which is why a `ready` release leaves
the flag dormant instead of flagging the whole board.
Dedup is the declaration echo's, extracted into state_marker /
state_echo_needed and scoped per family (D4): the marker is keyed to the
offending state's value and compared against that family's last word on
the thread, so a state that changes always speaks.
Fixtures replay the 2026-08-04 morning board whole and the post-ruling
board beside it: the first draws exactly four collision flags and six
window flags and writes not one label; the second draws none.
Closes#293.
lib/attention.sh had #267 D4's premise exactly — both reconcilers source
it, nothing release-side does — and [scope:release-flow] alone was a
wrong answer of the class that decision exists to correct. The sweep
workflow pair joins beside its trigger pair (detached in #209), the
shared-lib tests take scope:labels alone (a test inherits no lib/**
glob), and D4's seven enumerated rows land one each. No catch-all, by
decision: both directories span all four scopes. Each of the 13 new map
rows is protected by its own assertion — deleted alone, each reds
exactly its case.

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.
The state-machine fixtures bound BOT1/BOT2/BOT3 to REQUIRED_BOTS by index off
the shipped .github/labels.conf, so three fixtures silently required a
four-member panel=. Shrinking it to three left the third slot unbound and
set -u aborted the file before assertion 1: 217 assertions became 0, on main
and on every branch cut from it.
The fixtures now write their own conf, in test/labels.test.sh's shape, at all
three load sites (top of file, the #205 re-drafted-round block, and the
mutant_blockers subshell). One live-file case survives as a property — the
shipped conf parses and recuses each member from its own panel — with no
index and no expected size, and a copy whose panel= names nobody proves it
still has teeth.

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.
Refs #276
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.

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.
