ceremony/CHANGELOG.md

Changelog

The curated history of the ceremony itself. Each release's section is published verbatim as that release's body (lib/changelog.sh extracts it), so entries say what changed, cite the issue, and stop.

Unreleased

• lib/changelog.sh + bin/changelog-assemble — read the changelog.d/ fragments, assemble one release section (canonical group order, one shape per repo), and consume exactly what was published (#114).
• BUILDER.md — the handed-off PR is the parked claim's fourth shape, its handoff is its declaration, and shape 2 covers the round awaiting its first verdicts (#109).
• labels-reconcile — a degraded mergeability/checks read now logs gh's actual stderr (collapsed, bounded) beside the byte-identical counted line, and the blind-sweep warning leads with the observed reason instead of asserting the permissions cause (#101).
• Changelog publication — count entries instead of bytes, refuse dangling grouped headings, and seed grouped re-arms with Added/Changed/Fixed (#98).
• labels-reconcile — grant callers private-repo check reads and warn when an entire PR sweep is blind (#95).
• labels-reconcile — the bootstrap now retires the six GitHub defaults LABELS.md publishes as deleted, tolerating both an already-absent label and a refused delete (#93).
• issueflow-reconcile — a triage-authored issue arrival stands down with exit 0 instead of killing the run before the sweep (#91).
• FLEET.md — the assignee's attention wake: one role-independent trigger ahead of every per-role list, one acked session per demand; a spec on paper until duty.sh polls it (#86).
• attention doctrine — define its assignee-owned pickup, ack, queue and clock semantics across labels, triage, and builder roles (#85).
• attention — add the issue-only, hand-set assignee-demand flag to the core label taxonomy (#84).
• issueflow-reconcile — keep cross-repo references out of local dependency decisions and require triage to resolve cross-repo blockers by hand (#61).
• needs-ruling — the cross-cutting flag for a pending human decision, excluded from state:needs-human and from the staleness sweep (#51).
• Cross-repo doctrine: the panel is the PR's repo's roster, a review request is authorization but not panel membership, and Part of <repo>#N replaces the Closes #N that cannot cross repos (#57).
• actions/runner-isolated — a pull_request-triggered job may never run on a self-hosted runner (#58).
• The sweep's needs-ruling invariants, one implementation for both surfaces: the issue-side staleness exemption, the bare-flag check (comment-only, the label is never removed), and the 7-day nudge to the decider (#52).
• offsite — protect claimed issues whose PR lives in another repository from the claim-reclaim clock (#68).
• issueflow-reconcile — nudge once when an offsite flag outlives every visible cross-referenced PR (#69).
• Ruling doctrine — define every human-owned trigger, the fixed escalation shape, and the 0–24h builder-to-triage ladder (#72).
• The sweep observes the escalation contract: a malformed escalation is named field-by-field, and the ladder's 12h/24h rungs each draw one comment to the flag-setter — comment-only, per-episode, both surfaces (#73).
• FLEET.md — the operator notifier's needs-ruling queue (one tracked message per item, edited in place across the rungs) and triage's past-24h wake condition; a spec on paper until an operator updates the box (#74).
• One issue at a time counts build work in flight: the parked claim's three shapes, its declared-never-inferred comment, and triage's duty to name a directed hold as a park (#77).

0.1.0 — 2026-07-22

• lib/version.sh — one version abstraction, file and package-json backends (#3).
• lib/changelog.sh + bin/changelog-section — the one canonical changelog-section extractor (#4).
• actions/changelog-armed — the version-keyed arming guard (#5).
• actions/changelog-monotonic — shipped release headings are append-only: no deletion, no duplication (#6).
• actions/drill-recorded — a release tree must carry its drill record (#7).
• lib/decide.sh — the merge door's five-state decision, pure and exhaustively tested (#8).
• .github/workflows/release.yml + lib/facts.sh — the reusable two-door release workflow (#9).
• .github/workflows/labels.yml + actions/labels-reconcile — label taxonomy bootstrap and PR-state reconciliation (#10).
• Ceremony adopts its own ceremony: VERSION, this changelog, the drill doctrine, the self-callers, and the self-guards in CI (#11).
