Summary

Closes B-0085 (P0, filed 2026-04-28) via option-C empirical supersession. The deadline window 2026-04-26..04-29 has passed without intervention; the workflow's natural Sunday cron fires tomorrow (2026-05-03), restarting cadence on its own.

Empirical state 2026-05-02

  • Workflow has never fired (gh run list --workflow=.github/workflows/budget-snapshot-cadence.yml returns empty)
  • Snapshots stuck at 4 entries (most recent 2026-04-27, 5+ days old)
  • Deadline 2026-04-29 passed 3 days ago
  • Next Sunday cron fire = 2026-05-03 (tomorrow, natural restart)

Why option-C

Per the row's own acceptance criteria:

"If C: this row closed with note superseded-by-acceptance (option-C means the gap is acceptable)."

The 3-point series (2026-04-26 ×2 + 2026-04-27) informed runway projection during the window per snapshot #4's own note field. The deadline window closed with the data that was visible.

Coverage hole NOT addressed

Task #269 (cadenced counterweight-audit skill) should catch deadline-window vs cron-fire-schedule mismatches proactively. This closure does NOT address that coverage hole — it remains open as a separate concern.

Per the never-idle refinement landed in PR #1224

depends_on: [] populated per the on-demand-backfill discipline (no upstream blocking dependencies). This is the second backlog row this session to populate depends_on as part of starting the work.

Test plan

  • Frontmatter updated to status: closed + closed: 2026-05-02 + closed_by: option-C empirical supersession
  • Closure note at top of body
  • depends_on: [] populated per new discipline
  • BACKLOG.md regenerated
  • CI green

…ow 2026-04-26..04-29 closed without intervention)

Per the never-idle refinement landed in PR #1224 (priority order
matters; depends_on backfill incrementally on-demand): closing
B-0085 with option-C-supersession because the deadline window has
empirically passed without intervention.

Empirical state 2026-05-02:
  - Workflow has never fired (gh run list returns empty)
  - Snapshots stuck at 4 entries (most recent 2026-04-27)
  - Deadline 2026-04-29 passed 3 days ago
  - Next Sunday cron fire = 2026-05-03 (tomorrow, natural restart)

Per the row's own acceptance criteria: "If C: this row closed with
note `superseded-by-acceptance` (option-C means the gap is
acceptable)." The 3-point series (2026-04-26 ×2 + 2026-04-27)
informed runway projection during the window per snapshot #4's
own note field.

Coverage hole against task #269 (cadenced counterweight-audit skill
should catch deadline-window vs cron-fire-schedule mismatches
proactively) is NOT addressed by this closure; remains open as a
separate concern.

Populated depends_on: [] (per the new on-demand-backfill discipline
landed in PR #1224 — no upstream blocking dependencies).

File Description
docs/backlog/P0/B-0085-budget-cadence-workflow-cron-misses-task-287-deadline-window-aaron-2026-04-28.md Marks the row closed and adds a closure rationale note.
docs/BACKLOG.md Updates the generated index entry for B-0085 from open to closed.

…own acceptance criteria

Copilot finding on PR #1226: closure note should explicitly include
the 'superseded-by-acceptance' marker that the row's own acceptance
criteria specifies for option-C. Updated the closed_by frontmatter
field to lead with that exact phrase.
