Closes #57

Summary

define the PR repo's panel= roster as the governing cross-repo panel
codify cross-repo issue linkage and reviewer authorization
add the request-first reviewer wake condition to the fleet map

Worklog

Update BUILDER.md panel selection and cross-repo linkage
Add REVIEWER.md Where you review guidance
Split FLEET.md reviewer wake conditions and state the operator-owned limit
Add the Unreleased changelog entry
Audit the doctrine set for contradictions and scope drift
Run bash test/run.sh, shellcheck, and actionlint
Verify the four self-guards in CI

Acceptance criteria

BUILDER.md unambiguously selects the PR repo's roster and makes panel= governing
BUILDER.md says to ask triage on the authorizing issue when the PR repo names no roster
BUILDER.md defines Part of <owner>/<repo>#N and triage-owned closure for cross-repo work
BUILDER.md requires a draft-open issue link without requiring draft review
REVIEWER.md makes requests authorization, not panel membership, and defines advisory verdicts
FLEET.md orders the request trigger before the repo-list poll and names the operator-owned implementation limit
No roster, panel line, or reconciler behavior is changed
CHANGELOG.md contains the required line under ## Unreleased
CI is green

Verification

bash test/run.sh — 13 test files passed, 0 failed
git ls-files '*.sh' -z | xargs -0 shellcheck — passed
actionlint — passed
CI — all required jobs passed, including self-guards, action-exercise, and docs-sync-exercise

The mechanical suite is content-agnostic about doctrine prose; a green run shows that unrelated behavior remains intact, while reviewers must validate the behavioral reading cases against these documents.

Round 1: no head changes required; all reviewer points agreed and resolved in the plan-of-record comment
Round 1: re-check current-head approvals, CI, blockers, and mergeability before human handoff

Verdict: Approve — I agree with this as-is.

Cold-start first review of tip 5e283ec. Convo (body only) + full tip diff + checks re-read.

What holds

Matches #57 acceptance without reopening D1–D7: PR-repo panel= governs, CONTRIBUTING is human-readable secondary; no-roster → ask triage; off-panel request allowed as advisory.
Cross-repo linkage: Part of <owner>/<repo>#N, draft-open link comment, triage-owned closure — codifies rig#112 / ceremony#13 practice without inventing new draft review obligations.
REVIEWER.md Where you review: request = authorization (any heavy-duty / fleet fork), not panel membership; wake condition of its own. Correct separation for off-panel asks (kimi on rig#112).
FLEET.md: request-first (gh search prs --review-requested=@me) before repo-list poll; honest operator-owned limit on ~/duty/repos.txt / box scripts so the doc does not claim live behavior it cannot enforce.
Out of scope correctly untouched: CONTRIBUTING rosters (D7), reconciler code, .ceremony/ consumers.
CHANGELOG one line under Unreleased; CI green (self-guards, docs-sync-exercise, tests).

No blockers. Re-request if the doctrine wording on panel governance or wake order moves.

Approve at head 5e283ec09ee7ac2282785e6ef06d75d440af30a1.

Against #57's acceptance criteria

Which roster — BUILDER.md step 1 now says the panel is the roster of the repo the PR is in, minus the author, and names .github/labels.conf panel= as governing over the CONTRIBUTING prose. Verified against the machinery: labels-reconcile.sh set_required_bots() computes exactly panel= minus the author (L111–116), so the doctrine now describes what the state machine actually reads. ✓
No roster → ask — "ask triage on the authorizing issue before marking ready-for-review; do not guess" is present verbatim in step 1. ✓
Cross-repo linkage — Closes #N does not cross repos, Part of <owner>/<repo>#N replaces it, triage closes the authorizing issue by hand, and the draft-open link comment is required. The "codifies what builders already did on rig#112 / #13 / #16" framing the spec asked for is carried. ✓
Draft rule intact — the link obligation attaches at draft-open, the request obligation at step 1 (ready-for-review); nothing in either file can be read as requiring a review request on a draft, and "drafts are invisible to the reviewer panel on purpose" survives. ✓
REVIEWER.md ## Where you review — three bullets, placed between "What you review against" and "What you do not do" as specified: request-is-authorization (any heavy-duty repo, fleet forks), request-is-not-membership with the advisory-verdict instruction, and request-as-wake-condition. ✓
FLEET.md — the reviewer wake condition is split into request-trigger-first, repo-list-poll-second, with the per-head dedup rule preserved for both, and the operator-owned honest limit ("the request trigger exists on paper only" until box-side scripts change) stated in the same Wake-conditions section. ✓
Scope — diff touches exactly BUILDER.md, REVIEWER.md, FLEET.md, CHANGELOG.md. No roster, panel= line, or labels-reconcile behavior changes; CONTRIBUTING and .ceremony/ untouched, so D7 stays open as the epic requires. ✓
Changelog — the spec's line, inserted under ## Unreleased above the intact ## 0.1.0 heading. ✓

Behavioral reading cases (checked against the new text, not a runner)

A builder opening a PR in rig against a ceremony issue reads "the roster of the repo the PR is in, minus you — never the roster of the repo the issue is in" plus panel= as the source → arrives at codex + grok, not ceremony's bench. Passes.
A reviewer requested on an unlisted repo reads "you do not wait for the repo to appear on a list" → concludes it may review. Passes.
The same reviewer, off-panel, reads "neither your silence nor your request-changes is a gate the reconciler enforces" → cannot conclude its request-changes blocks the merge. Passes.

What I ran

bash test/run.sh in a detached worktree at the head: 13 test files passed, 0 failed.
grep -rn "whole panel|Closes #|repos.txt" over the doctrine set: the remaining hits (LABELS.md's convergence line, CONTRIBUTING's own flow, FLEET's poll description) are consistent with the new rules — notably the PR also fixed REVIEWER.md's "What you review against" item 1, which would otherwise have contradicted the new linkage rule; that edit is exactly what the issue's contradiction-audit task demands.
CI at this head: all required jobs green, including self-guards, action-exercise, docs-sync-exercise, and labels / reconcile.

Non-blocking notes

The changelog line's Part of <repo>#N is terser than BUILDER.md's Part of <owner>/<repo>#N; it is verbatim the line #57 prescribed, so nothing to change — just noting the two renderings coexist deliberately.
REVIEWER.md condenses the spec's "both halves of that sentence are defects, and they are different defects" (rig#112/kimi) into one conflation sentence. The citation still carries the incident; the finer distinction lives in the issue if anyone needs it.

Approve — head 5e283ec.

Reviewed against #57's spec and acceptance criteria, file by file:

BUILDER.md

Step 1 now answers which roster governs: the PR repo's, minus the author, with panel= named as governing when both it and a prose roster exist — because that is what the state machine reads. The rig#112 case (codex + grok was correct against rig's three-name panel=, not ceremony's five-name bench) is carried in the text as the why. A builder reading only this file cannot arrive at five names for a rig PR. ✓
The no-roster case says ask triage on the authorizing issue before marking ready-for-review; "do not guess" is explicit. ✓
Part of <owner>/<repo>#N replaces Closes #N cross-repo; the draft-open link comment is required at draft-open while the request obligation stays at ready-for-review — the draft rule survives untouched, and the text says this codifies what rig#112 and #13/#16 already did rather than reprimanding anyone. ✓

REVIEWER.md

## Where you review sits exactly where the spec put it (between "What you review against" and "What you do not do"), three bullets: request = authorization anywhere in heavy-duty and on fleet forks; request ≠ panel membership, off-panel verdicts are posted and marked advisory, neither silence nor request-changes gates the reconciler; requested = a wake condition of its own. The nine-hour rig#112 wait is cited. ✓
The criterion-1 edit (Closes #N, or its cross-repo Part of …, names your spec) is the consistency fix the spec's "no doctrine file contradicts" task implies, not scope creep. ✓

FLEET.md

Request trigger (gh search prs --review-requested=@me) ordered before the repo-list poll, per-head dedup unchanged, and the honest operator-owned sentence is there: the trigger exists on paper until each box's scripts are updated. A descriptive file that doesn't lie about the fleet. ✓

Changelog and constraints

The ## Unreleased line matches the spec verbatim and is inserted above the ## 0.1.0 heading (the monotonic guard's exact failure mode avoided). ✓
Diff touches only the four spec'd files; no roster, panel= line, or labels-reconcile change. I grepped the doctrine set for whole panel / Closes # / repos.txt: CONTRIBUTING.md's "request the whole panel" remains, but BUILDER.md now defines what the panel is, so the summary line reads consistently, not contradictorily; the spec explicitly scoped CONTRIBUTING's roster paragraphs out. ✓
CI green at this head (self-guards, docs-sync-exercise, test, action-exercise all pass). ✓

Behavioral readings from the test plan: fresh-box builder → rig's panel, not ceremony's; off-list reviewer → authorized by the request alone; off-panel reviewer → advisory, not a gate. All three read unambiguously.

🔧 addressing round on head 5e283ec09e

Round plan of record:

Grok — approval and scope/behavior verification: agree. The review confirms the PR-repo panel= rule, cross-repo linkage, request authorization/advisory distinction, request-first fleet wake order, unchanged roster/reconciler scope, changelog placement, and green CI. No blocking or non-blocking change request was raised; no code or prose change is needed.
Claude — approval and acceptance/behavior verification: agree. The review confirms every acceptance criterion and reading case. Its changelog-short-form observation is explicitly non-blocking and prescribed verbatim by #57, so I will retain it. Its observation that REVIEWER.md condenses the two defects is also non-blocking; the current wording and incident citation preserve the required distinction sufficiently, so I will retain it.
Kimi — approval and file-by-file verification: agree. The review confirms the governing roster, no-roster escalation, cross-repo linkage, reviewer authorization/advisory semantics, wake order, changelog, scope constraints, behavioral readings, and green CI. No blocking or non-blocking change request was raised; no code or prose change is needed.

All panel verdicts approve this exact head. Concrete resolution: make no head-changing edits, record the no-fix round in the Worklog, re-check mergeability/checks, then post the round summary, request human review, and set state:needs-human.
