docs(deploy): retarget the NEMESIS.md pointer to TERMINUS.md (CLAWD-3862) - #65
Merged
Conversation
…862) CLAWD-3769 enumerated this file and asked whether the reference is a path the script READS -- because this is the one executable in its list, where a rename would change runtime behaviour rather than documentation accuracy. The material answer is that this is a text edit with no behaviour change, and that holds. THE MECHANISM I FIRST GAVE FOR IT WAS FALSE, and an independent reviewer measured it: I wrote "no code path reads, tests or resolves it", and two of those three verbs are wrong. Line 31 sits inside the `-h|--help` header block, which is emitted by `sed -n '2,69p' "$0"` at :86 -- so it IS read from the script and printed to the operator, and it IS pinned by a test (tests/scripts/test_opt_provenance_report.py, which asserts the sed range ends at the header boundary). What is true is narrower: it is never RESOLVED as a path, and this edit is line-count-neutral, so the pinned range and both guard tests are unaffected. Verification: git grep -In 'NEMESIS' -- . -> rc 1, zero hits (was 1) bash -n scripts/deploy-to-runtime.sh -> OK wc -l, HEAD vs origin/main -> 234 vs 234 (neutral) `set -euo pipefail` still at NR=70 -> range 2,69p still correct --help | grep TERMINUS -> prints the retargeted line pytest tests/scripts/test_opt_provenance_report.py -k help -> 2 passed Rebased onto origin/main (ef452df) -- the branch was cut from a local `main` one commit stale, missing merged PR #64. The sweep result is unchanged by that (`git grep` on origin/main returns the same single hit) but the branch should not carry the staleness.

scripts/deploy-to-runtime.shas the one to look at first, because it is the only executable in its list, and asked whether the reference is a path the script reads — in which case the rename changes runtime behaviour rather than documentation accuracy.Resolved: it is prose. Line 31 sits inside the
#-prefixed header comment block explaining that~/.hermesstays load-bearing afterchat.vhs.boxwas decommissioned. No code path reads, tests or resolves it. Text edit only.Verification

runtime(/opt/hermes-agent), so per TERMINUS.md §1 branch-in-place is the declared workflow. Nothing uncommitted left behind; the runtime deploys from a ref, and this changes no code path it executes.
