Appends the record at the foot: the red (4 DUPLICATE_NUMBER), the measured
next free integers (67 / 12 -- reply 87's 59 was taken), the identity
repair (numstat 1/1 each), the empty-by-measurement reply ledger, and the
two RENAMED rows the rename costs. path_claim_check --fail-on-missing ->
17 missing, 0 new. Index re-rendered in this commit.
The census graded every path token at the repo root, so an artifact naming its own
scripts read MISSING while the files sat beside it: six of the seven new rows at
40f1095 were a base mismatch (four in the sphinx needle-grounding REPORT.md:49-52,
two quoted from the archive digest.md), and the seventh was a real rename.
doc_relative() tries the citing document's own directory ONLY after the root base
misses, refuses ../, and accepts only a tracked path; DOCREL is a resolution that
prints the path and the cite it resolved at, selectable with --only docrel, and a
ledger row it now resolves prints CLEARED_DOCREL. The root base always wins (c24),
a root document gets no second base (c23).
selftest 21 -> 27 cells; mutating doc_relative() to return None fails c22/c26/c27
(24/27, rc 1). Census: 1148 distinct, EXISTS 348 / DOCREL 6 / MISSING 13 /
EXTERNAL 771 / TEMPLATE 10, 13 missing 0 new rc 0. One ledger row added:
replies/2026-10-22-to-null-01.md RENAMED (7a472a4, added d659219).
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.
