Summary

This is a follow-up to #22644, which merged before its review findings were fixed.

• Plural forms. The Chief's running indicator folds finished steps into counts like "Ran 3 commands", "Read 2 files" and "4 more steps". Each of those six strings now has plural variations in all 21 locales of CmuxHome.xcstrings, and each is recorded in scripts/localization-plurals.json.
  • Arabic had used one plural form for every count. It now has its dual form for 2, plural for 3–10 and singular accusative for 11 and up.
  • Polish, Russian, Ukrainian and Bosnian get their few and many forms.
  • French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese get "many".
• Headline only in the store. The live book now publishes only the headline of the Chief's newest thought (HomeThoughtHeadline, moved into CmuxHomeCore), not the whole thought of up to 64 KiB. A streamed thought token now changes HomeStore.live only when the line a person sees changes. The headline rule itself is unchanged: last bold heading, else last sentence, at most 72 characters.

Test

HomeTurnThoughtStoreTests now checks that the store holds the headline, not the raw text, and that a later heading replaces it after the thought's step ends.

Observed / Not run

• Observed:
  • scripts/cmux-next/prepush-gate.py passes.
  • localization_catalog.py check --catalog …/CmuxHome.xcstrings reports no errors other than needs_review states; every machine translation in this catalog carries that state.
• Pending: MessagesLab Swift tests on the fleet at this head. cmux NEXT Home: while the Chief works, show its steps, its thought and the step now #22644's head (4c8f1ee) passed all 52 suites on the fleet.
• Not run: a tagged build or a screenshot. Nothing is built on the Mac.

Summary by cubic

Fixes the review findings from #22644: the Chief's folded step counts now use plural forms in every locale, and the store keeps only a thought's headline instead of its whole text.

Plural forms

• Six running-indicator strings now have plural variations in all 21 locales of CmuxHome.xcstrings, recorded in scripts/localization-plurals.json.
• Arabic gains its dual form for 2 and plural for 3–10; Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, and Bosnian gain few and many forms.
• ja, km, ko, th, vi, and zh had only the other category; their single form now repeats other, satisfying check-l10n.sh.

Headline in the store

• The live book publishes only the newest thought's headline (HomeThoughtHeadline, moved into CmuxHomeCore) instead of the whole thought (up to 64 KiB), so a streamed token changes HomeStore.live only when the line a person sees changes.
• The headline rule (last bold heading, else last sentence, at most 72 characters) is unchanged, and the headline stays as the run's narration until the next thought.
• The running indicator now shows the published headline as it is, without headlining it a second time.
• HomeTurnProgressTests verifies the store holds the headline, not the raw text, and that a later heading replaces it.

Orphan sweep (owner session): the independent subagent review found one blocking issue. check-l10n.sh requires every language to have all of English's plural categories, and ja, km, ko, th, vi and zh-Hans/Hant had only other. Pushed 75a8be4, which adds one (equal to other) for those 7 languages on the 6 keys. A local check-l10n.sh run now reports 0 errors, and the "checks (l10n)" job is green.

Remaining reds, all also red on feat-cmux-next:

• defaults-snapshot: settings exports were stale on base 06:10–06:50Z.
• swift test: the shared AppKit UI reds plus ActionRunCreatedTests. Nothing in Home.
• generated files: stale settings exports on base.

The fleet compile-check of the app at merge ref d695462 passed.

merge-audit: #22707 merged at 75a8be4 without no SHIP review receipt on the head; no risk tier label. #23289 reverts it. To keep this change, add the missing evidence for 75a8be4 here; the next audit pass then closes #23289. Otherwise review and land #23289.

Review (subagent, correctness first): SHIP at 75a8be4

This is a post-hoc independent review of the merged change (merge commit c4fc4e9). It was read-only and nothing was run. risk:low (strings catalog plus a moved helper).

Nothing blocks. Notes:

• All six home.turn.* plurals were checked in 21 locales against the CLDR categories, and each form has one %lld.
• Predates this PR: a last line like ***** counts as a heading and drops an earlier real heading (HomeThoughtHeadline.swift:17).

The merge-audit revert of this PR is handled separately. See leo-workspace briefs/2026-10-20-gui-push/revert-triage.md.
