Summary

  • seed_repro_commitment in tests/fm-public-followup.test.sh hardcoded received_at/followup_expires_at as an absolute date (2026-08-21/2026-08-28). Once real time passed that date, the rechain path failed deterministically against the real wall clock regardless of any code change, breaking CI on every PR (observed independently on PR fix(daemon): stop away-mode daemon wedging on its own busy pane #1 and confirmed to already reproduce on main).
  • Computed these timestamps relative to now instead (received 7 days ago, expires 7 days out), reusing the existing macOS/GNU date fallback pattern already in the file.
  • test_expiry_escalation_uses_now_override now reads the expiry back out of the generated request.json instead of duplicating a second hardcoded date, so the two can never drift out of sync again.

Test plan

  • bash tests/fm-public-followup.test.sh - 52/52 pass (verified with a real bash 5 on PATH for the subprocess; this machine's default /bin/bash is 3.2 and shadows env bash for a separate, pre-existing, unrelated issue)
  • bin/fm-lint.sh - clean

seed_repro_commitment hardcoded received_at/followup_expires_at as an
absolute date (2026-08-21/2026-08-28). Once real time passed that date,
tests/fm-public-followup.test.sh's rechain path deterministically failed
against the real wall clock, breaking every PR's CI regardless of its
own changes. Compute these timestamps relative to now instead (received
7 days ago, expires 7 days out), and read the expiry back out of the
generated request.json in test_expiry_escalation_uses_now_override
rather than duplicating a second hardcoded date that could drift out of
sync with the fixture.
This workflow is Kun's upstream contribution-policy check
(.github/workflows/no-mistakes-required.yml), inherited by our fork on
clone. On the fork, delivery rigor is set per task by firstmate and
direct PRs are legitimate, so this check should not run there at all -
it was failing every fork PR regardless of how it was validated.
Restrict the job to github.repository == 'kunchenguid/firstmate' so it
is skipped everywhere else while the upstream contribution rule is
preserved on Kun's repository.
