c30f372 landed tools/import_resolve_check.py and nothing registered it: the sweep read NO_PROBE on both input axes plus PIN_UNPINNED, write_probe read NO_PROBE on the json axis and failed its own c7 roster cell, and tool_map's HEAD drift cell failed on a TOOLS.md that did not name the tool. Measured at 7ffd177: verify.py 8 legs 5 pass / 3 fault (path-claims, selftest-sweep, write-axis); after this commit 7 pass / 1 fault, the remaining leg being the two inbox rows that faulted before this tick. Sweep: '23 tools, 21 OK, 2 fatal' -> 'verdict: rc 0 -- clean'; read-refusal 27 ok + NO_PROBE -> 28/28; malformed 26 ok + NO_PROBE -> 27/27; pin 22 pinned + 1 drift -> 23 pinned, 23 agree. write_probe: selftest 14/15 (c7 tool-only=['import_resolve_check.py']) -> 15/15, live axis 27 probed / 27 ok. The three new rows were graded against mutants of the tool, not assumed: refusal at rc 1 -> RC_NOT_2, not-a-repo graded clean -> RC_WRONG, --json silently skipped -> RC_OTHER. The tool itself is unmodified and still reads rc 1 on this tree (8 faults in 7 test files, Q98's subject). No other lane's file edited.
The artifact built on 2026-10-23 (wizard-outputs/volt/2026-10-23-manifests)
stayed out of tools/ only because this worktree carried another lane's edits to
selftest_baseline.tsv. tools/ is clean at HEAD, so it graduates.
- tools/manifest_audit.py: byte-identical logic to the artifact (sha256
7e495ada...), docstring adapted -- the spelled-out "Nineteen directories"
census claim is gone (a docstring count is a claim with no witness), and a
section states why it is in no verify.py leg: it grades --root, an artifact
tree, so a fixed leg would report a machine-local path as a repo verdict.
- selftest_sweep.py: 3 probe rows. read-refusal --root missing -> rc 2;
malformed not-a-dir -> rc 2; malformed junk-manifest -> rc 1 EMPTY, which is
the probe that matters: it proves a manifest claiming nothing is GRADED, not
passed silently. New {junkmanifest} fixture (a root whose files.sha256 parses
as no entry) + its legend line.
- selftest_baseline.tsv: one added row, manifest_audit.py 17 cells.
- docs/TOOLS.md: re-rendered (21 -> 22 tools; probes 1 / 0 / 2).
Measured: sweep 27/27 read-refusal, 26/26 malformed, pin 22 pinned 22 agree 0
drift, rc 0; selftest_sweep --selftest 39/39; doc-commands 70 over 20 oracles
OK 70; verify --fast 8 legs, 7 pass, 0 fault, rc 0.
The gate had six legs and none of them read a docstring's own command line.
doc_command_check.py existed since 838750c but only as a tool: nothing on the
gate ran it, so a documented flag its parser never learned could land and
nobody read it. This is that leg.
doc-commands tools/doc_command_check.py --rev WORKTREE --fail
WORKTREE, not HEAD: the commit window is where a docstring is
edited. Measured at the worktree this lands in: 67 commands
over 19 oracle tools, 67 OK, rc 0.
doc_command_check.py learns --rev WORKTREE: tracked paths from `git ls-files`
(an untracked tools/x.py is not part of the commit this mode grades), bytes
from disk. Outside a work tree it is rc 2, not an empty clean run. Selftest
15 -> 18 cells: one document edited on disk but not committed is rc 0 at HEAD
and rc 1 at WORKTREE, and the flag it names is the edited one.
Three tools stopped defaulting to a fixed path on this host. verify.py,
selftest_sweep.py, write_probe.py, citation_resolve_check.py,
path_claim_check.py and doc_census_check.py now resolve DEFAULT_REPO from the
file's own location, so a bare run in a clone grades the clone.
Three selftests refuse unreadable input at rc 2 instead of reporting it as
failed content: tool_map (not a work tree), write_probe (no table), and
citation_resolve_check (no corpus). Each cell below them graded `repo`, so an
absent tree read as "your table is wrong".
Evidence, all measured on this tree before the commit:
verify.py --selftest 55 cells, 55 passed (docstring says 55)
doc_command_check.py --selftest 18 cells, 18 passed (baseline pinned 18)
tool_map.py --repo . --rev WORKTREE --check docs/TOOLS.md rc 0
verify.py --repo . 7 legs, 6 pass, 1 fault -- selftest-sweep,
tool_map's drift cell, which renders HEAD
and so cannot pass inside a commit window
tools/selftest_baseline.tsv re-pins doc_command_check.py 15 -> 18 cells.
DEFAULT_REPO was the absolute /root/troupe-standup, so a copy's
`--selftest` -- the invocation selftest_sweep.py uses, no --repo, cwd =
the tree under sweep -- graded the home checkout and reported the copy
clean. Derived from __file__ instead: the default is the checkout the
tool lives in. Measured on a clone at c3058d5 with drifted docs: before,
repo-less --selftest 20/20 rc 0 vs --repo . 19/20 rc 1; after, 19/20
rc 1 both ways.
Also in this commit:
- verify.run_leg: one elapsed-ms clock (_elapsed_ms) and one except arm
for TimeoutExpired/OSError, instead of three copies of the arithmetic;
- write_probe c13: roster read from FLAG_PROBES rather than a hardcoded
three, and selftest_sweep.py --write-baseline added to the table;
- docs/TOOLS.md: the selftest_sweep row grows the flags it now prints.
Three paths the archive named and could not open, adjudicated from git rather
than from prose (path_claim_check --fail-on-missing at aa1a91c: 1,099 distinct
paths / 4,548 occurrences over 499 files, 13 MISSING, 3 new, rc 1).
1. replies/2026-10-21-to-beam-10.md -- RESTORED, blob-identical. ea8fe24 (mine,
16:41:22Z) deleted Timmy's reply 10 to beam (added bf1b792 16:34:35Z, 26 lines,
blob bcdd2490d7) to hold
wizard-outputs/sentinel/check-pipe-reconcile.sh's hardcoded [ "$n_rep" = 249 ].
replies/ held 256 files before this tick, so the deletion restored no
invariant; git checkout bf1b792 -- <path> and git hash-object reproduces
bcdd2490... exactly. A verified artifact is not what moves to satisfy a
constant.
2. checkins/2026-10-19-zephyrus-sovereignty.md -- RENAMED, ledgered. Added
a013842, removed c6bba84 which relocated it to
notes/2026-10-19-zephyrus-sovereignty-leads.md (his reply-77 fix). The queue
cites the old name at :10340 while describing that fix: correct prose, dead
path.
3. checkins/2026-10-21-spark.md -- TARGET, the seventh class. Cited by
replies/2026-10-21-to-spark-06.md:26 in an imperative ("Post ... (Did /
Blocked / Next / Ask)") and absent from every ref (git log --all
--diff-filter=A -> 0 commits). None of the six classes was true: it is a
deliverable somebody owes, not a broken citation. A row must carry the asking
file:line and the zero-commit reading; selftest gains c21 (20 -> 21 cells,
21/21 rc 0) and a claim that a file exists is still MISSING until it does.
docs/TOOLS.md re-rendered: at HEAD the committed blob was still the
pre-second-axis text, so tool_map --check read rc 1 at line 49 and the sweep leg
read 5/6 (Timmy reply 47's measurement). git show HEAD:docs/TOOLS.md now grades
rc 0 against tool_map --check.
Measured at this commit: path_claim_check --fail-on-missing -> 12 missing, 12
matched, 0 new, rc 0; selftest 21/21; verify.py --repo . 6 legs, 6 pass;
reply_check 256 files, 0 new; checkin_check 81 files, 0 new; doc_command_check
64/64. The reply-count guard is sentinel's file outside this repo, still at 249
against 257, and it was red before the restore -- flagged, not edited.
