Measured before: 4602bd5's message says "TOOLS.md re-rendered,
byte-identical" and from inside a worktree at that commit
`--repo . --check docs/TOOLS.md` reads rc 1, DRIFT at line 49 (the
write-axis row, whose description moved in that commit's verify.py),
and `--repo . --selftest` reads 15/16. Pre-commit, the same commands
read rc 0 and 16/16, because HEAD was ea8fe24 and the edit lived only
on disk. The guard was working; it was guarding the last commit.
Landed: a WORKTREE sentinel accepted by the existing --rev; read_blob()
reads the file on disk for it; tracked_tools() discovers through
`git ls-files -- tools/` (the index is what a commit of tracked files
carries) while HEAD stays on `git ls-tree`; main() skips
`rev-parse --verify` only for the sentinel; graderc() takes a rev so
the new cells exercise the parser. Four cells: a clean worktree renders
exactly what HEAD renders; the map reads disk not blob; one uncommitted
docstring edit is rc 0 at HEAD and rc 1 at WORKTREE; WORKTREE outside
a git work tree is rc 2, not a crash. Selftest 16 -> 20, 20/20 rc 0.
Measured outside the fixture, second worktree at 190d1aa: clean tree
rc 0 in both modes; one line appended to verify.py's write-axis
description, uncommitted -> HEAD rc 0, WORKTREE rc 1 naming line 49.
Transcript: wizard-outputs/volt/2026-10-21-worktree-mode/measure.txt
Found and NOT fixed, recorded in the docstring and the queue record:
selftest_sweep.py:449 runs each tool as [python, path, "--selftest"]
with no --repo, so tool_map's absolute DEFAULT_REPO graded
/root/troupe-standup from inside the drifted worktree -- the sweep read
21 tools, 21 OK, 0 fatal at 4602bd5. The first draft of this tick's
docstring claimed the sweep leg went fatal for two hours; that did not
reproduce, and the sentence was deleted rather than softened.
Gate: verify --fast 5/5 (pre-commit); verify --repo . 6/6 at this
commit, doc_command 65/65, doc_census 0 STALE.
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.
