From aa0e7c8bf2863e88e13d3a05a58d37a19b32e64a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaron Stainback Date: Thu, 14 May 2026 15:45:29 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] =?UTF-8?q?shard(tick):=201942Z=20=E2=80=94=20PR=20#32?= =?UTF-8?q?08=20CI=20rerun=20cleared=20+=20session=20state=20checkpoint?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit PR #3208 (B-0517 Phase 2 tool) hit UNSTABLE state — 5 failed lint jobs from the same mise rate-limit pattern earlier in the session. Reran failed jobs; transitioned UNSTABLE → CLEAN with autoMerge armed. Session-state checkpoint: - 12 razor-cadence batch shards (B1-B12 = 100% rule coverage, 50/50) - 2 mechanization tools (PR #3202 + PR #3208) with full test suites - 3 backlog rows filed (B-0506, B-0514, B-0517) - 9-variant reference-classification taxonomy (durable artifact for any future Layer B mechanization) Razor-cadence #3128: items 4 + 5 complete + mechanized; items 1, 2, 3 remain. CI workflow wiring (factory-hygiene-audit.yml composing audit-rule-cross-refs + audit-user-scope-memory-index) is the obvious next-session follow-up.

Line 7 self-contradiction: shard says "prior merges include B-0517 Phase 2" but later describes #3208 (the PR landing that phase) as still in-flight. Clarified: #3208 was UNSTABLE at refresh time + merged later in same tick. 2. Line 30 overclaim: said "taxonomy used by both audit tools' Layer A" but: - audit-rule-cross-refs.ts treats the taxonomy as Layer B (explicitly out of scope for the mechanical Layer A) - audit-user-scope-memory-index.ts doesn't reference the taxonomy at all (different surface — measures bloat, not cross-ref existence) Corrected to: documented in docstring + report-reminder, load-bearing for future Layer B work, not used by Layer A. 3. Line 66 workflow accuracy: said "running both audit tools daily" but the memory-index tool can't run in CI (defaults to user-scope path that doesn't exist there; exits 128). Clarified: rule-cross-refs runs fully; memory-index runs only as a tool self-test in CI. (This is what PR #3212 already does correctly.) 4. Line 1 schema check: shard uses ATX heading format which fails tools/hygiene/check-tick-history-shard-schema.ts (which expects pipe- table first row). The check isn't currently CI-wired but the shard is out of compliance with the documented schema. Substrate-honest acknow- ledgment added; format reconciliation deferred to a future tick. All 4 threads will be resolved via GraphQL after this lands.
