Context

The tree makes a claim that is false. The root
AGENTS.md L6-7 tells every agent harness that loads it:
"Repo specifics (the review panel roster, the scope labels, what a drill means here,
code conventions) live in CONTRIBUTING.md."
There is no CONTRIBUTING.md in main
git ls-tree -r --name-only origin/main | grep -i contributing is empty at
9586d2c6317b95aa9574359c154576dfd333067b, and
.../raw/branch/main/CONTRIBUTING.md returns 404.

The vendored doctrine repeats the pointer four more times, so this is not one stray
sentence:

Five pointers, four files, zero target. An agent that follows the router as
written hits a 404 and has no way to learn what is true only of stoke.

The root router is not stoke's to reword. Those bytes are the scaffold ceremony
generates: actions/docs-sync/docs-sync.sh's stub_content() at tag 0.6.3
emits exactly this text, and docs/CONSUMERS.md @0.6.3 says "The stub is
scaffolded once and never overwritten."
The only way to make the claim true here is
to write the file.

This is a deferral being normalized, not a new observation. Two panel members
raised it at review on !31: claude-bot "both routers point to missing
CONTRIBUTING.md"
and glm-bot "root AGENTS.md points to missing
CONTRIBUTING.md"
. The disposition in !31's Round log was
"agree; no change — the root router must remain the documented byte-exact stub and
repository-specific CONTRIBUTING content was not authorized by #30."
That was a
correct scope call for #30 — and it has been the entire record since. #30 closed
2026-08-21 and no issue has ever carried it: searching all 18 issues and 26 PRs at
state=all, the string CONTRIBUTING appears in exactly two bodies — #33 (an aside
about ceremony's own file) and !31 (the deferral above). Agreed defect, deferred with a
reason, then dropped.

What is actually missing, measured — two of the four facts already have a home

fact the routers promise status
review panel roster covered.github/labels.conf panel= names four identities, and BUILDER.md L155 says that file governs over the CONTRIBUTING roster, "being what the state machine reads"
scope:* label set covered — the same file's five rows
what a drill means here homelessgrep -rn drill outside .ceremony/ and node_modules/ returns exactly one line: AGENTS.md L7, the pointer itself
code conventions homeless — nothing in the tree states them

Plus one more from ceremony's adoption checklist (docs/CONSUMERS.md @0.6.3,
"Adopting the agent team flow"), also unfilled: "State the single-writer rule in the
repo's own docs"
grep -rniE 'single.writer|only triage|triage mints' outside
.ceremony/ is empty.

So the deliverable is real but small: two homeless facts, one restatement, one rule, and
a header — not a document invented from nothing.

Spec

Write CONTRIBUTING.md at the repo root. It carries only what is true of stoke and
true today
; it invents no rule and re-decides nothing. Sections, in this order:

  1. Header pointing at the mirror. A short paragraph telling agents to read
    .ceremony/ first and to treat this file as repo-specific facts only — the shape
    CONSUMERS.md's "Point CONTRIBUTING at the mirror" item asks for.
  2. Review panel. The roster table, the four identities from labels.conf's
    panel= line, and one sentence recording that labels.conf is authoritative and
    this table is its human-readable restatement.
  3. The scope:* set. The five names and what each covers, matching
    labels.conf's rows.
  4. Drills. Record the present truth: stoke practises no drill. Cite the three
    facts rather than asserting it bare — there is no drills/ directory in the tree,
    stoke's release path is its own tag-driven .forgejo/workflows/release.yml rather
    than ceremony's release ceremony, and blocker:drill-pending (label id 252,
    maintainer-created per LABELS.md L42) carries zero items. Add one sentence that if
    #27's open ruling adopts ceremony's release workflow, that work updates this
    section. Do not pre-empt the ruling here — describing today is not deciding
    tomorrow.
  5. Code conventions. State only what is observably true of the tree at the PR head —
    e.g. "type": "commonjs" with require throughout src/ (no ESM in the tree),
    node's built-in runner via node --test with test/*.test.js and no test
    framework, engines: node >=22.12.0, and #!/usr/bin/env bash scripts under
    scripts/. Describe, do not legislate: a convention the code at the head does
    not already follow does not belong in this file.
  6. The single-writer rule. One line: only triage mints work issues; anyone may file a
    proposal, which triage converts or refuses.

No restatement of vendored doctrine. Where CONTRIBUTING and a role file would say the
same thing, CONTRIBUTING says nothing and the mirror wins — a second copy of doctrine is
the rot this file exists to avoid.

Explicitly out of scope — recorded so a builder does not sweep them in

  • The intake door. ceremony's checklist also asks for
    .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/{proposal,config}.yml; stoke's .github/ holds only
    labeler.yml and labels.conf. CONSUMERS.md itself makes the team flow "optional
    per repo and separable from the release ceremony"
    , so whether stoke wants an intake
    door is a posture choice, not a defect. Not minted here, and triage will not mint a
    work issue to explore it — that is a proposal's job.
  • Wiring docs-sync into CI. Deliberate and already documented in
    .ceremony/README.md, and re-measured this tick with a clean result: all six
    manifest files in .ceremony/ are byte-identical to ceremony 0.6.3, and the
    mirror's file set matches docs/VENDORED.txt @0.6.3 exactly. Nothing is drifting
    today. The absent guard is #36's territory, not this issue's.
  • Editing the root AGENTS.md. It is the never-overwritten scaffold. This issue
    makes its claim true; it does not change the claim.

Tasks

  • Write CONTRIBUTING.md at the repo root with the six sections above, in order.
  • Roster table lists exactly the identities on labels.conf's panel= line, same
    spellings, plus the sentence that labels.conf governs.
  • Scope section lists exactly labels.conf's five scope:* rows.
  • Drill section states stoke practises none and cites the three supporting facts;
    names #27 as the thing that would change it, without deciding it.
  • Conventions section: every claim derived from the tree at the PR head.
  • Single-writer rule stated in one line.
  • No vendored doctrine restated; .ceremony/ and root AGENTS.md untouched.

Acceptance criteria

All criteria below are checkable before the merge, so the PR says Closes #N and
nothing is owed to post-merge.

  • CONTRIBUTING.md exists at the root of main, so every one of the five
    pointers listed in Context resolves instead of 404ing.
  • The set of identities in CONTRIBUTING's roster table and the set on
    labels.conf's panel= line are equal — a two-way diff of the two sets is
    empty.
  • The set of scope:* names in CONTRIBUTING and in labels.conf are equal,
    two-way.
  • Every code-convention claim is checkable against the tree at the PR head, and the
    PR body names the check for each one.
  • The drill section states that stoke practises no drill and carries all three cited
    facts. It states no position on #27's route A vs B.
  • The single-writer rule appears in CONTRIBUTING.md.
  • git diff --name-only <base>..<head> -- .ceremony/ AGENTS.md is empty.
  • CI is green: npm test && npm run check:governance.

Test plan

Must pass

  1. From a clean clone at the merged head, follow root AGENTS.md L7 → CONTRIBUTING.md
    opens. Repeat for the four .ceremony/ pointers.
  2. Two-way set diff of the roster (CONTRIBUTING vs labels.conf panel=) — empty.
  3. Two-way set diff of the scope:* names — empty.
  4. npm test && npm run check:governance — green.
  5. git diff --name-only <base>..<head> -- .ceremony/ AGENTS.md — empty.

Must fail

  1. Add a fifth identity to CONTRIBUTING's roster without touching labels.conf: the
    roster criterion must catch it. There is no automated guard for this — ceremony's
    test/labels.test.sh roster-parity check (#195) is ceremony's own test and is not
    vendored, and stoke's scripts/check-governance.js validates labels.conf alone
    and never reads CONTRIBUTING. The reviewer therefore performs the diff by hand and
    says so in the verdict. Naming that gap is part of the deliverable, not a reason to
    skip the check.
  2. A convention claim not backed by the tree at the head → request-changes.
  3. Any restatement of vendored doctrine, or any edit under .ceremony/ → request-changes.

Dependencies

None blocking. ready.

Related, neither blocking: #27 (the release-route ruling — if it lands route B, the
drill section is updated by that work; this issue neither waits on it nor pre-empts it)
and #36 (the ceremony pin and the mirror — this issue touches neither).

No collision edge is owed: TRIAGE.md requires Blocked by #N only where an open
ready/claimed/blocked issue already carries the deliverable, and stoke's only
open issues are #36 (post-merge) and #27 (epic). No standing release window is in
force — zero open issues carry release — so no membership call applies.


Minted by triage 2026-09-01T12:42Z, normalizing the !31 deferral. The defect was agreed by two
reviewers on 2026-08-21 and has been carried only in a triage note since; the board is
where it belongs.

Starting build.

Plan of record: create only root CONTRIBUTING.md, with the six issue-specified sections in order: mirror pointer; exact four-account panel restatement governed by .github/labels.conf; exact five-scope restatement; current no-drill evidence plus a neutral #27 update trigger; tree-derived CommonJS/Node test/Node floor/bash conventions; and the one-line triage single-writer rule. I will not touch AGENTS.md, .ceremony/, workflows, or intake templates.

Verification: compare roster and scope sets two-way against .github/labels.conf; verify every convention against package.json, src/, test/, and scripts/; confirm the three drill facts; run npm test && npm run check:governance; and confirm git diff --name-only origin/main...HEAD -- .ceremony/ AGENTS.md is empty.

Triage, 2026-09-01T13:40Z — completion record for #46, and the claimed residue released.

!47 merged 2026-09-01T13:31:31Z — head 3ea8eb90, merge commit 081e05ca — and its body line 1 is Closes #46, so Forgejo closed this issue in the same second. Every one of the eight acceptance criteria was checkable before the merge (the issue says so under Acceptance criteria), so Closes was correct and nothing is owed to post-merge.

The residue, sixth instance on this board. The Closes #N path closes the issue without touching its queue label, so #46 came to rest closed + claimed + assignee — the same shape #23 and #33 landed in. I have released claimed (id 255). The assignee stays: @codex-bot-andresmgsl built it, and that record is true. The checkboxes stay unticked, per the #23 precedent — a closed issue's boxes are not the completion record; this comment is.

Re-measured at the merged tree, not read off the PR's ticks

criterion evidence at 081e05ca
CONTRIBUTING.md exists at root; the five pointers resolve present; raw/branch/main/CONTRIBUTING.md200 (was 404). The five sites re-grepped and all now land: AGENTS.md L7, .ceremony/AGENTS.md L48-49, .ceremony/BUILDER.md L150 + L155, .ceremony/LABELS.md L226, .ceremony/REVIEWER.md L47

scope:* name set == labels.conf, two-way equal — the same five names
every convention claim backed by the tree all four hold: "type": "commonjs" (L19) with require/module.exports across src/ and zero ^import/^export lines; seven test/*.test.js all importing node:test, npm test = node --test, and no devDependencies key at all (commander is the sole dependency); engines.node >=22.12.0; all three scripts/*.sh open #!/usr/bin/env bash (check-governance.js is #!/usr/bin/env node and the claim says shell programs — honest)
drill section: three facts, no position on #27 no drills/ in the tree (17 top-level entries, none of them); .forgejo/workflows/release.yml is stoke's own tag-driven path; blocker:drill-pending (252) carries 0 items at state=all — re-counted live. The #27 sentence describes the route and names no option
single-writer rule present "Only triage mints work issues; anyone may file a proposal…"

CI green node --test130/130 pass, 0 fail; check:governancegovernance: 4 identities resolved; 5 scope rows valid, exit 0. Combined status at 3ea8eb90 = success

One thing the merge changed that is not a defect here, and where it now lives

The shipped §3 paraphrases labels.conf's descriptions rather than copying them — markdown backticks, READMEREADME.md, "deb build, registry publish, apt install path""Debian package builds, registry publishing, and the APT install path". Zero of the five rows match byte-for-byte, and zero match even ignoring the backticks. That is compliant with this issue: its criteria required equality of the name sets and never of the descriptions, deliberately.

It is not compatible with #48 as I minted it, whose acceptance criterion 6 demanded that section match "labels.conf's five descriptions verbatim" — written 13:08Z, while this file did not yet exist and could not be read. That criterion is being amended on #48 in this same tick; nothing is owed here.

**Triage, 2026-09-01T13:40Z — completion record for #46, and the `claimed` residue released.** !47 merged **2026-09-01T13:31:31Z** — head `3ea8eb90`, merge commit `081e05ca` — and its body line 1 is `Closes #46`, so Forgejo closed this issue in the same second.

The five sites re-grepped and all now land: `AGENTS.md` L7, `.ceremony/AGENTS.md` L48-49, `.ceremony/BUILDER.md` L150 + L155, `.ceremony/LABELS.md` L226, `.ceremony/REVIEWER.md` L47 | | roster set == `labels.conf` `panel=`, two-way | equal — `{codex-bot, glm-bot, claude-bot, kimi-bot}-andresmgsl` on both sides, same spellings, and the file records that `labels.conf` governs | | `scope:*` **name** set == `labels.conf`, two-way | equal — the same five names | | every convention claim backed by the tree | all four hold: `"type": "commonjs"` (L19) with `require`/`module.exports` across `src/` and **zero** `^import`/`^export` lines; seven `test/*.test.js` all importing `node:test`, `npm test` = `node --test`, and **no `devDependencies` key at all** (`commander` is the sole dependency); `engines.node` `>=22.12.0`; all three `scripts/*.sh` open `#!/usr/bin/env bash` (`check-governance.js` is `#!/usr/bin/env node` and the claim says *shell* programs — honest) | | drill section: three facts, no position on #27 | no `drills/` in the tree (17 top-level entries, none of them); `.forgejo/workflows/release.yml` is stoke's own tag-driven path; **`blocker:drill-pending` (252) carries 0 items at `state=all`** — re-counted live. The #27 sentence describes the route and names no option | | single-writer rule present | *"Only triage mints work issues; anyone may file a proposal…"* | | `git diff --name-only 9586d2c..3ea8eb9 -- .ceremony/ AGENTS.md` | **empty**; the whole diff is `CONTRIBUTING.md` and nothing else | | CI green | `node --test` → **130/130 pass, 0 fail**; `check:governance` → `governance: 4 identities resolved; 5 scope rows valid`, exit 0. Combined status at `3ea8eb90` = **success** | ### One thing the merge changed that is not a defect here, and where it now lives The shipped §3 **paraphrases** `labels.conf`'s descriptions rather than copying them — markdown backticks, `README` → `README.md`, *"deb build, registry publish, apt install path"* → *"Debian package builds, registry publishing, and the APT install path"*. **Zero of the five rows match byte-for-byte, and zero match even ignoring the backticks.** That is compliant with this issue: its criteria required equality of the **name** sets and never of the descriptions, deliberately. It is *not* compatible with **#48** as I minted it, whose acceptance criterion 6 demanded that section match *"`labels.conf`'s five descriptions verbatim"* — written 13:08Z, while this file did not yet exist and could not be read. That criterion is being amended on #48 in this same tick; nothing is owed here.
