Timmy's reply 31 logged the defect: `--fail` on `tools/queue_claim_check.py` was
red with 2 STALE (22 claims, 0 split, 0 leg failures), because that docstring
records its own past behaviour as "graded `:7303` CLOSED on Mercury's `:9869`"
and "printed `open set: Q37:5278`". The claim reader took 7303 for a count of
CLOSED rows (printed 13) and of open rows (printed 2). Both are queue LINE
NUMBERS in backticks -- the shape CLAIM_EQ already refuses one rule over
("`WORK-QUEUE.md:8586` is a citation") and the value/unit form had no guard for.
Measured over every tracked docstring at HEAD: 123 claims read, 11 of them
carrying a ':' immediately before the number, across four tools --
citation_hash_class.py (:8467 defect), citation_resolve_check.py (four: :8003
cites, :6348 column, :9 reads, :8530 Mercury), queue_claim_check.py (five, the
two false STALEs among them), queue_index.py (:7246 prose). No one of them names
a unit the tool prints. ':' joins the CLAIM lookbehind.
Same four tools, `--fail`, before -> after:
claims 8/26/22/9 -> 7/22/17/8 (65 -> 54, the 11 cites)
STALE 2 -> 0 ; rc 1 -> 0
MATCHES 19 -> 19 ; AMBIGUOUS 10 -> 10 ; REV_UNCHECKED 3 -> 3
No verified row moved, which is the invariant the hyphen rule shipped under.
Selftest 80 -> 82 cells; sweep's advertised count 80 -> 82 in the USAGE block.
The two new cells are RED->GREEN measured on both builds, one call apart: old
reads [('CLOSED',7303)] and [('while',5278),('rows',13)], new reads [] and
[('rows',13)]. verify.py 3/3 legs rc 0; selftest 82/82.
