+# Duplicate PR Prevention System
+
+## Overview
+
+The Nexus uses a multi-layer system to prevent duplicate PRs for the same issue.
+
+## Components
+
+### 1. Pre-flight Check (CI)
+
+The `.github/workflows/pr-duplicate-check.yml` workflow runs on every PR creation and checks if a PR already exists for the same issue.
+
+**How it works:**
+1. Extracts issue numbers from PR title and body
+2. Queries Gitea API for existing PRs referencing those issues
+3. Fails the check if duplicates are found
+4. Provides links to existing PRs for review
+
+### 2. Cleanup Script
+
+The `scripts/cleanup-duplicate-prs.sh` script helps clean up existing duplicates:
+- Lists all PRs for a given issue
+- Identifies duplicates
+- Provides commands to close duplicates
+
+### 3. Milestone Checker
+
+The `bin/check_duplicate_milestones.py` script prevents duplicate milestones:
+- Scans all milestones in the repo
+- Identifies duplicates by title
+- Reports for manual cleanup
+
+## Usage
+
+### Check for Duplicates Before Creating PR
+
+```bash
+# Check if issue already has PRs
+curl -s -H "Authorization: token $GITEA_TOKEN" \
+  "https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/api/v1/repos/Timmy_Foundation/the-nexus/pulls?state=open" \
+  | jq '.[] | select(.body | contains("#ISSUE_NUMBER"))'
+```
+
+### Clean Up Existing Duplicates
+
+```bash
+# List PRs for issue
+./scripts/cleanup-duplicate-prs.sh --issue 1128
+
+# Close duplicates (keep newest)
+./scripts/cleanup-duplicate-prs.sh --issue 1128 --close-duplicates
+```
+
+## Example: Issue #1500
+
+Issue #1500 documented that the pre-flight check successfully prevented a duplicate PR for #1474.
+
+**What happened:**
+1. Dispatch attempted to work on #1474
+2. Pre-flight check found 2 existing PRs (#1495, #1493)
+3. System prevented creating a 3rd duplicate
+4. Issue #1500 was filed as an observation
+
+**Result:** The system worked as intended.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Always check before creating PRs** — use the pre-flight check
+2. **Close duplicates promptly** — don't let them accumulate
+3. **Reference issues in PRs** — makes duplicate detection possible
+4. **Use descriptive branch names** — helps identify purpose
+5. **Review existing PRs first** — don't assume you're the first
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Duplicate PR detected" error
+
+This means a PR already exists for the issue. Options:
+1. Review the existing PR and contribute to it
+2. Close your PR if it's truly a duplicate
+3. Update your PR to address a different aspect
+
+### Pre-flight check not running
+
+Check that `.github/workflows/pr-duplicate-check.yml` exists and is enabled.
+
+### False positives
+
+The check looks for issue numbers in PR body. If you're referencing an issue without intending to fix it, use "Refs #" instead of "Fixes #".

-
-### 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

- 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 |

-
-### 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)
