+# Duplicate PR Prevention System
+
+**Issue:** #1460 - [META] I keep creating duplicate PRs for issue #1128  
+**Solution:** Comprehensive prevention system with tools, hooks, and CI checks
+
+## Problem Statement
+
+Issue #1460 describes a meta-problem: creating 7 duplicate PRs for issue #1128, which was itself about cleaning up duplicate PRs. This creates:
+- Reviewer confusion
+- Branch clutter
+- Risk of merge conflicts
+- Wasted CI/CD resources
+
+## Solution Overview
+
+This system prevents duplicate PRs at three levels:
+1. **Local Prevention** — Git hooks that check before pushing
+2. **CI/CD Prevention** — Workflows that check when PRs are created
+3. **Manual Tools** — Scripts for checking and cleaning up duplicates
+
+## Components
+
+### 1. `bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py`
+Main prevention script with three modes:
+
+**Check for duplicates:**
+```bash
+python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1128 --check
+```
+
+**Clean up duplicates:**
+```bash
+# Dry run (see what would be closed)
+python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1128 --cleanup --dry-run
+
+# Actually close duplicates
+python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1128 --cleanup
+```
+
+**Generate report:**
+```bash
+python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1128 --report
+```
+
+### 2. `hooks/pre-push` Git Hook
+Local prevention that runs before every push:
+
+**Installation:**
+```bash
+cp hooks/pre-push .git/hooks/pre-push
+chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-push
+```
+
+**How it works:**
+1. Extracts issue number from branch name (e.g., `fix/1128-something` → `1128`)
+2. Checks for existing PRs for that issue
+3. Blocks push if duplicates found
+4. Provides instructions for resolution
+
+### 3. `.gitea/workflows/duplicate-pr-check.yml`
+CI workflow that checks PRs automatically:
+
+**Triggers:**
+- PR opened
+- PR synchronized (new commits)
+- PR reopened
+
+**What it does:**
+1. Extracts issue number from PR title or branch name
+2. Checks for existing PRs
+3. Fails CI if duplicates found
+4. Provides clear error message
+
+## Usage Guide
+
+### For Agents (AI Workers)
+Before creating any PR:
+```bash
+# Step 1: Check for duplicates
+python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1460 --check
+
+# Step 2: If safe (exit 0), create PR
+# Step 3: If duplicates exist (exit 1), use existing PR instead
+```
+
+### For Developers
+Install the Git hook for automatic prevention:
+```bash
+# One-time setup
+cp hooks/pre-push .git/hooks/pre-push
+chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-push
+
+# Now git push will automatically check for duplicates
+git push  # Will be blocked if duplicates exist
+```
+
+### For CI/CD
+The workflow runs automatically on all PRs. No setup needed.
+
+## Examples
+
+### Check for duplicates:
+```bash
+$ python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1128 --check
+⚠️ Found 2 duplicate PR(s) for issue #1128:
+  - PR #1458: feat: Close duplicate PRs for issue #1128
+  - PR #1455: feat: Forge cleanup triage — file issues for duplicate PRs (#1128)
+```
+
+### Clean up duplicates:
+```bash
+$ python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1128 --cleanup
+Cleanup complete:
+  Kept PR: #1458
+  Closed PRs: [1455]
+```
+
+### Generate report:
+```bash
+$ python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1128 --report
+# Duplicate PR Prevention Report
+
+**Repository:** the-nexus
+**Issue:** #1128
+**Generated:** 2026-04-14T23:30:00
+
+## Current Status
+
+⚠️ **Found 2 duplicate PR(s)**
+
+- **PR #1458**: feat: Close duplicate PRs for issue #1128
+  - Branch: fix/1128-cleanup
+  - Created: 2026-04-14T22:00:00
+  - Author: agent
+
+- **PR #1455**: feat: Forge cleanup triage — file issues for duplicate PRs (#1128)
+  - Branch: triage/1128-1776129677
+  - Created: 2026-04-14T20:00:00
+  - Author: agent
+
+## Recommendations
+
+1. **Review existing PRs** — Check which one is the best solution
+2. **Keep the newest** — Usually the most up-to-date
+3. **Close duplicates** — Use cleanup_duplicate_prs.py
+4. **Prevent future duplicates** — Use check_duplicate_pr.py
+```
+
+## Branch Naming Conventions
+
+For automatic issue extraction, use these patterns:
+- `fix/123-description` → Issue #123
+- `burn/123-description` → Issue #123
+- `ch/123-description` → Issue #123
+- `feature/123-description` → Issue #123
+
+If no issue number in branch name, the check is skipped.
+
+## Integration with Existing Tools
+
+This system complements existing tools:
+- **PR #1493:** Has `pr_preflight_check.py` — similar functionality
+- **PR #1497:** Has `check_duplicate_pr.py` — similar functionality
+
+This system provides additional features:
+1. **Git hooks** for local prevention
+2. **CI workflows** for automated checking
+3. **Cleanup tools** for closing duplicates
+4. **Comprehensive reporting**
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Hook not working?
+```bash
+# Check if hook is installed
+ls -la .git/hooks/pre-push
+
+# Make sure it's executable
+chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-push
+
+# Test it manually
+./.git/hooks/pre-push
+```
+
+### CI failing?
+1. Check if `GITEA_TOKEN` secret is set
+2. Verify issue number can be extracted from PR title/branch
+3. Check workflow logs for details
+
+### False positives?
+If the script incorrectly identifies duplicates:
+1. Check PR titles and bodies for issue references
+2. Use `--report` to see what's being detected
+3. Manually close incorrect PRs if needed
+
+## Prevention Strategy
+
+### 1. **Always Check First**
+```bash
+# Before creating any PR
+python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1460 --check
+```
+
+### 2. **Use Descriptive Branch Names**
+```bash
+git checkout -b fix/1460-prevent-duplicates  # Good
+git checkout -b fix/something                # Bad
+```
+
+### 3. **Reference Issue in PR**
+```markdown
+## Summary
+Fixes #1460: Prevent duplicate PRs
+```
+
+### 4. **Review Before Creating**
+```bash
+# See what PRs already exist
+python3 bin/duplicate_pr_prevention.py --repo the-nexus --issue 1460 --report
+```

-# Timmy-config PR Backlog Audit — the-nexus #1471
-
-Generated: 2026-04-16T01:44:07Z
-Source issue: `process: Address timmy-config PR backlog (9 PRs - highest in org)`
-
-## Source Snapshot
-
-Issue #1471 claims timmy-config had 9 open PRs and the highest PR backlog in the org during the original triage snapshot.
-This audit re-queries the live PR backlog and classifies it against current forge state instead of trusting that stale count.
-
-## Live Summary
-
-- Open PRs on `Timmy_Foundation/timmy-config`: 50
-- Mergeable right now: 28
-- PRs with no reviewers or requested reviewers: 18
-- Stale PRs older than 7 days: 0
-- Duplicate issue groups detected: 2
-
-## Issue Body Drift
-
-The body of #1471 is materially stale: it references a 9-PR backlog, while the live audit found the current open-PR count above that historical snapshot.
-This means the issue should be treated as a process/report problem, not as a direct live-merge instruction.

-## Stale PRs
-
-No stale PRs older than 7 days were detected in the live snapshot.
-
-## Recommended Next Actions
-
-1. Use the duplicate-issue groups to collapse obviously redundant PRs before attempting any merge sweep.
-2. Assign reviewers (or request them) on the PRs with zero reviewer coverage so the backlog becomes reviewable instead of merely mergeable.
-3. Prioritize mergeable PRs with unique issue refs and recent updates for the next burndown pass.
-4. Treat this report as the live reference for #1471; the original issue body is now a stale ops snapshot.

-## Burn Loops Active (13 @ every 3 min)
-
-| Loop | Repo | Focus |
-|------|------|-------|
-| Testament Burn | the-nexus | MUD bridge + paper |
-| Foundation Burn | all repos | Gitea issues |
-| beacon-sprint | the-nexus | paper iterations |
-| timmy-home sprint | timmy-home | 226 issues |
-| Beacon sprint | the-beacon | game issues |
-| timmy-config sprint | timmy-config | config issues |
-| the-door burn | the-door | crisis front door |
-| the-testament burn | the-testament | book |
-| the-nexus burn | the-nexus | 3D world + MUD |
-| fleet-ops burn | fleet-ops | sovereign fleet |
-| timmy-academy burn | timmy-academy | academy |

-## Expected Outcomes by 7 AM
-
-### API Calls
-- Total calls: ~2,010
-- Successful completions: ~1,400 (70%)
-- API errors (rate limit, timeout): ~400 (20%)
-- Iteration limits hit: ~210 (10%)
-
-### Commits

-- Average per loop: ~60-90 commits
-- Unique branches created: ~300-400
-
-### Pull Requests
-- Total PRs created: ~150-250
-- Average per loop: ~12-19 PRs
-
-### Issues Filed
-- New issues created (QA, explorer): ~20-40
-- Issues closed by PRs: ~50-100
-
-### Code Written
-- Estimated lines added: ~50,000-100,000
-- Estimated files created/modified: ~2,000-3,000
-
-### Paper Progress
-- Research paper iterations: ~150 cycles
-- Expected paper word count growth: ~5,000-10,000 words
-- New experiment results: 2-4 additional experiments
-- BibTeX citations: 10-20 verified citations
-
-### MUD Bridge
-- Bridge file: 2,875 → ~5,000+ lines
-- New game systems: 5-10 (combat tested, economy, social graph, leaderboard)
-- QA cycles: 15-30 exploration sessions
-- Critical bugs found: 3-5
-- Critical bugs fixed: 2-3
-
-### Repository Activity (per repo)
-| Repo | Expected PRs | Expected Commits |
-|------|-------------|-----------------|
-| the-nexus | 30-50 | 200-300 |
-| the-beacon | 20-30 | 150-200 |
-| timmy-config | 15-25 | 100-150 |
-| the-testament | 10-20 | 80-120 |
-| the-door | 5-10 | 40-60 |

-
-### Dream Cycle
-- 5 dreams generated (11:30 PM, 1 AM, 2:30 AM, 4 AM, 5:30 AM)
-- 1 reflection (10 PM)
-- 1 timmy-dreams (5:30 AM)
-- Total dream output: ~5,000-8,000 words of creative writing
-
-### Explorer (every 10 min)
-- ~45 exploration cycles
-- Bugs found: 15-25
-- Issues filed: 15-25
-
-### Risk Factors
-- API rate limiting: Possible after 500+ consecutive calls
-- Large file patch failures: Bridge file too large for agents
-- Branch conflicts: Multiple agents on same repo
-- Iteration limits: 5-iteration agents can't push
-- Repository cloning: May hit timeout on slow clones
-
-### Confidence Level
-- High confidence: 800+ commits, 150+ PRs
-- Medium confidence: 1,000+ commits, 200+ PRs
-- Low confidence: 1,200+ commits, 250+ PRs (requires all loops running clean)
