feat(record): declare a verb-written family, and retire the first of the nine it unblocks by wenzowski · Pull Request #962 · button-inc/batten

wenzowski · 2026-09-17T00:49:23Z

Continues the bash-corpus retirement after #930 landed. That PR delivered the four engine layers the wave rows were waiting on and retired three programs (88 → 85). This one closes the defect that made the ninth of them inert, and spends it on the first retirement it unblocks.

The defect: a store nothing could read

batten record named <family> (CLOUD-1713) writes a branch-keyed store, and no policy module could read one. recorder_records builds the set of families it projects into input.tree.records as the declared [[recorder]] rows unioned with record::VERB_WRITTEN, and a caller-named family is in neither — nor can it join either:

VERB_WRITTEN is a fixed list because the ENGINE owns both halves of those three stores. A consumer's family cannot enter it without the crate knowing a consumer's name (non-negotiable rule 1).
A [[recorder]] requires tool, because that table selects on a mediated tool call. A family a mise task writes answers to no tool call at all.

So the store was written, the row registered, the module reading input.tree.records["<family>"] — and the key absent, every rule beneath it undefined, the gate green. Measured over branch-age: a record naming a 36-day branch against a two-day threshold, batten check exit 0. That is CLOUD-1707's dead gate one surface over, and the third time this campaign has met an absent input byte-identical to a real negative.

[[record]] is the missing half — config rather than a column on the rule that reads it, on the reasoning rules.rs already gives at that call site: the fact is what THIS repository's producers accumulated, so a per-rule declaration would be a second home for one answer.

Declared rather than swept, and that is the design. The projection could read whatever files sit in the store directory; it must not, because then a leftover file from a retired producer answers as a live measurement and nothing names what SHOULD be there. The declaration is also what keeps could-not-look readable: an absent record under a declared family is "the producer did not run", where the same absence with nothing declared is not a reading at all.

Authority-only, and the direction is why: declaring a family arms a gate, so the edit worth refusing is the REMOVAL that disarms one. resolve reads the table from the committed authority alone and the key is absent from OverrideConfig, which makes that removal unwritable in the layer an author controls at PR time.

Three cases over the compiled binary, because two of them would pass on a fix that is not one: a declared family with a record decides; a declared family with no record says nothing — a projection reading the DECLARATION rather than the store would report a finding there; an undeclared family stays unprojected whatever its store holds. Both mutations sit on the chain they mutate.

The first retirement it unblocks

branch-age-check.sh and its suite are gone. policy/branch-age.rego had been registered since the forge producer landed and decided nothing until the above; it decides now.

The split is forced, not chosen. The module takes every decision the program made. [tasks.branch-age-record] keeps the two things that are not decisions — the gh reads and the civil-calendar subtraction — because §5 makes check read and incapable of spawning, and Fact::Instant projects null to every module, which clippy.toml and crates/batten/tests/clock_ban.rs hold the engine to.

The tier is not the module's own suite, and that is this port's lesson. The module carries eleven test_ rules and every one fabricates its input with with input as — so all eleven were green through a whole session in which the row decided nothing on any real checkout. crates/batten/tests/it/branch_age.rs runs the real module over a record the real producer's verb wrote, read through the engine's own projection.

The ledger accounts for all thirteen of the dying suite's cases: seven carried, three changed onto mise.toml (the trunk filter and both forge reads moved to the producer — and the could-not-look pair records a real behaviour change, silence here where the shell exited 2, because a module refusing there would refuse every checkout with no credential), two changed onto the module, one withdrawn (a case asserting a property of an arithmetic step that does not exist on a surface reading no clock).

One case title is qualified suite::case: perf-compare.bats carried one spelled identically, and bats count dropped reported the ambiguity against perf_compare.rs:56 — a file this branch never touched. The ratchet conserves cases by TITLE across the whole tree.

The caller nothing asserts

A retirement deletes a program; no clause asks whether its CALLERS still resolve. .github/workflows/release-assets.yml was still running mise run attestation-check, a task this branch's own earlier commit deleted — and that workflow fires on workflow_run, schedule and workflow_dispatch, so it reaches no PR and no reviewer. Two silences composing, on the same file CLOUD-258 and CLOUD-1777 each already paid for.

The caller is repointed and the mechanism ships with it (non-negotiable rule 2): policy/task-callable.rego refuses a workflow run: line naming a mise run <task> absent from the task graph, decided offline from two parsed documents the engine already acquires. An interpolated name abstains rather than firing.

Filing this instead of fixing it is the punt issue file same refuses, and it refused this branch when I tried — correctly. It rides here.

Corpus

88 → 84. Four of the forty-four retired; the remaining eight of the CLOUD-1707 group are unblocked by the same projection and follow on this branch.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds declared producer-written record families and projects them into policy input. It replaces branch-age, attestation, timeout-drift, nonverdict, and land-divergence shell gates with record-producing tasks and Batten policy rules. It adds validation, verdict classes, schema entries, workflow wiring, and integration tests. Existing policy fixtures now provide empty record collections. Retired scripts, Bats suites, and benchmark entries are removed. Forge recording now excludes skipped check runs.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 94cc5

The migrated gates can miss invalid workflow calls, persist misleading measurements, or fail on supported environments. These material enforcement regressions should be fixed before merge.

`verify` refused this branch with `forge check red` and `head grade twice` over a commit the forge had never judged. PR #962 is a draft, this repository's contract says CI does not run on a draft, and all twelve of its check-runs therefore conclude `skipped`. The producer recorded that as a verdict and `forge-verdict-required` read `final skipped` as the forge having looked and refused. THE GUARD WAS WRITTEN FOR THE OTHER NON-VERDICT. `map(select(.conclusion != null))` excludes a PENDING run, which is what it was reasoned about — and `skipped` is non-null, so it sailed through as graded. Two states are not a verdict and the filter knew about one. The cost is structural rather than occasional: every pull request starts as a draft here, so the first `verify` after opening one writes a false red and `land` can never take its first lap. Measured 2026-09-17 on #962 — twelve checks skipped, `.git/batten-forge/488ac399…` spelling `final skipped`, `verify` refusing both forge rows, the branch unable to move. With the guard narrowed the producer writes nothing and the record stays absent, which is could-not-look. This is CLOUD-1707's own defect one layer in. That row existed because a `deny` gate had no producer and so decided nothing; this is its producer turning "CI has not run" into "CI refused" — the same collapse of could-not-look into a verdict, in the opposite direction. Filtered at the parse rather than at the fan-in test alone: a skipped job in a real run rendered no verdict either, so recording `<job> skipped` would say that job refused. Refs: CLOUD-1707 Admits: bb0e61c9cd57e1f69c063baa9c8eeabb0a9b3b707eda60123d558cb7e1525078 Admits-rule: protected-mutation Admits-verdict: path write refused Admits-subject: mise.toml Admits-anchor: call:488ac399c4402bded559276685e244bfe6c077a5 Admits-epoch: ba0d29a9bb89a9544da54e66e06e4e190c8cbba7ee9caac53c1c88f116b2065e Admits-author: alec@wenzowski.com Admits-prev: ff70d7405fd339ebe4ddd020a29e65f4cd18ecdc8dc3731c955230ddcf454500 Admits-answer-lost: Every pull request starts as a draft by this repository's own contract, so the first `verify` after opening one writes a false red and `land` can never take a lap. Measured now on PR #962: all twelve checks `skipped`, `.git/batten-forge/488ac399…` records `final skipped`, `verify` refuses `forge check red` plus `head grade twice`, and the branch cannot land. This is a could-not-look recorded as a verdict — the exact defect CLOUD-1707 existed to remove, reintroduced by its own producer's guard. Admits-answer-precondition: The producer's fan-in guard is a `jq` filter inside `[tasks.record-verdicts]`, and a mise task body lives on exactly one surface. The defect is in that filter: `map(select(.conclusion != null))` admits `skipped`, so a draft PR — where CI does not run and every check-run concludes `skipped` — is read as GRADED and the record spells `final skipped`, which `forge-verdict-required` reads as a refusal. There is no other file the filter can be corrected in. Admits-answer-rejected-route: config read first — I read the guard, the record it wrote and the live check-runs for the head, and that reading is what identified the wrong conjunct rather than what avoided the edit: a filter admitting a value it should exclude cannot be corrected by reading it. patch run first is a commit-message route and does not apply to a task-body fix.

In @.github/workflows/branch-hygiene.yml:
- Around line 62-63: Update the branch hygiene job to install the released
Batten binary before the branch-age steps, ensuring it is available without a
Rust toolchain. Change the branch-age-record step to invoke Batten with the
named branch-age record command, while preserving the existing branch watch
loose check.

In `@crates/batten/src/rules.rs`:
- Around line 7431-7453: Update config::validate_sections to reject duplicate
record names across config.records, recorder.record, declared family.record, and
crate::record::VERB_WRITTEN before recorder_records resolution; preserve
same-source validation while reporting cross-source collisions instead of
allowing first-match shadowing.

In `@crates/batten/src/verdict.rs`:
- Line 1290: Move the RecordTableRefused variant in the public Native enum to
after ConfigUnreadable so later implicit discriminants remain stable. Preserve
the existing ordering of Native::ALL, Native::CONFIG_FAULTS, and Native::id.

In `@mise.toml`:
- Around line 1962-1963: Update the archive extraction cases in the producer so
unzip and tar failures propagate as command failures instead of being ignored
with `|| true`; ensure extraction failure exits the producer before any
no-binary result is recorded, while preserving successful extraction behavior.
- Line 2302: Update the jq expression in the check-run processing command to
group runs by name and select the latest run using started_at and id before
filtering out skipped conclusions. Preserve emitting only non-skipped runs with
their name and conclusion, so a latest skipped rerun does not fall back to an
older result.
- Line 2040: Replace the asort call in the matching awk task with a portable
external numeric sort, or explicitly invoke a declared GNU awk tool; preserve
the existing sample ordering and timeout-record output behavior.
- Line 2065: Update the command around run_named/record named timeout-drift so
emit writes to a temporary file first and only invoke batten record after emit
completes successfully; ensure failed emit output is not persisted and clean up
the temporary file afterward.

In `@policy/attestation.rego`:
- Around line 80-84: Update the archives comprehension to include only records
whose verdict in columns[2] is verified, unverified, or no-binary, while
preserving the existing archive-name and three-column checks.

Provision Batten before running the branch-age gate.

The job installs only gh and jq before these steps. branch-age-record reaches cargo run --quiet -p batten at mise.toml:2110, but the workflow has no Rust toolchain. The released Batten binary is also installed afterward, so the scheduled job can fail before it records or checks branch data.

Move the released Batten installation before these steps. Change branch-age-record to invoke batten record named branch-age.

Reject cross-source record-name collisions. config::validate_sections validates config.records only within crate::record::validate, while crate::recorder::validate runs separately and VERB_WRITTEN is not included. However, recorder_records resolves recorder.record, family.record, and verb_written in order and keeps the first match. A [[record]] entry can therefore be silently shadowed by a recorder's record field or a crate::record::VERB_WRITTEN entry. Reject these cross-source duplicates during configuration validation.

Append RecordTableRefused instead of inserting it.

Native is a public enum with implicit discriminants. Its documentation defines declaration position as an API contract. The insertion shifts the discriminants of later variants, including ProvisionTableRefused, StartupTableRefused, OutcomeTableRefused, PlanReadStale, and ConfigUnreadable.

Move this declaration after ConfigUnreadable. Keep the explicit Native::ALL, Native::CONFIG_FAULTS, and Native::id ordering unchanged.

Do not classify extraction failures as no-binary.

Both extraction commands discard their failure status. If an archive is corrupt or the extractor fails, find returns no binary and the producer records no-binary. The policy then receives a release verdict instead of a could-not-look result.

Fail the producer without recording data when extraction fails.

The task invokes unqualified awk, and [tools] declares no GNU awk dependency or PATH override. On macOS, BSD awk does not provide asort. When matching samples exist, the awk program fails before it emits timeout records.

Record timeout data only after emit completes.

record named buffers all stdin, then run_named writes the buffer after EOF. Therefore, if a later API call makes emit return nonzero, the command can still persist the earlier lines before pipefail reports the producer failure. The timeout policy then reads those lines as a normal record because it has no producer-completion marker.

Write emit output to a temporary file first. Invoke batten record only after emit succeeds.

Select the latest run before excluding skipped.

Ignore unknown archive verdicts before adding them to archives.

record named stores input without validating measurement lines. An input such as archive asset.tar.gz unexpected can therefore reach this rule. With posture 200, the current rule adds it to archives, but no violation matches it. The policy can report clean instead of release list empty.

Accept only verified, unverified, and no-binary.

Reject malformed API payloads before recording the window.

conditional_get accepts any non-whitespace 2xx body, so malformed JSON can reach both jq calls.

At line 2323, a run-list parse failure sets run_ids to empty. The task then records a zero-run window with unreadable=0, which the policy treats as a clean reading.

The jobs parser runs inside a command substitution whose status is not checked. A parse failure produces no loop input, so the run is omitted without increasing unreadable. The resulting incomplete window is still recorded.

If the run-list parse fails, exit before record named nonverdict. Parse each jobs payload into a variable, increment unreadable when parsing fails, and skip that run.

…an read it `batten record named <family>` wrote a branch-keyed store and no policy module could read one. `recorder_records` builds the set of families it projects into `input.tree.records` as the declared `[[recorder]]` rows unioned with `record::VERB_WRITTEN`, and a caller-named family is in neither — nor can it join either. `VERB_WRITTEN` is fixed because the engine owns both halves of those three stores, and a consumer's family cannot enter it without this crate knowing a consumer's name (rule 1). A `[[recorder]]` requires `tool`, because that table selects on a mediated tool call, and a family a `mise` task writes answers to no tool call at all. So the store was written, the row registered, the module reading `input.tree.records["<family>"]` — and the key absent, every rule beneath it undefined, the gate green. Measured over `branch-age`: a record naming a 36-day branch against a two-day threshold, `batten check` exit 0. CLOUD-1707's dead gate, one surface over, and the third time this campaign has met an absent input that is byte-identical to a real negative. `[[record]]` is the missing half. Config rather than a column on the rule that reads it, on the reasoning `rules.rs` already states at that call site: the fact is what THIS repository's producers accumulated, so a per-rule declaration would be a second home for one answer. DECLARED RATHER THAN SWEPT, and that is the design rather than a detail. The projection could read whatever files sit in the store directory; it must not, because then a leftover file from a retired producer answers as a live measurement and nothing names what SHOULD be there. The declaration is also what keeps could-not-look readable: an absent record under a declared family is "the producer did not run", where the same absence with nothing declared is not a reading at all. `writer` is never executed. Section 5 keeps the spawn outside `check`, so it is a pointer — but it makes a declared family always name who fills it, and a store with no producer is a row that could only ever answer could-not-look. AUTHORITY-ONLY, and the direction is why: declaring a family arms a gate, so the edit worth refusing is the REMOVAL that disarms one. `resolve` reads the table from the committed authority alone and the key is absent from `OverrideConfig`, which makes that removal unwritable in the layer an author controls at PR time. `trust.rs` records it as not-policy-bearing by unreachability, `board`'s own shape. THREE CASES, over the compiled binary, because two of them would pass on a fix that is not one. A declared family with a record decides; a declared family with no record says nothing — a projection reading the DECLARATION rather than the store would report a finding there; an undeclared family stays unprojected whatever its store holds — the sweep, as an exit code. Both mutations sit on the chain they mutate: dropping the declared names restores the defect, and replacing them with a hardcoded name is the sweep, which only the third case sees. Measured after: the same record, the same rule, `branch watch stale` and `branch name duplicate` on `claude/ancient`, exit 2.

Admits-answer-precondition: `$MUTANT_GATES` is a single quoted string on one line of `mise.toml` and exists on no other surface — `mutate census` reads it to decide which gates are mutation-enforced, and a file carrying a `#MUTANT` row whose name is absent from the list is reported uncovered. `crates/batten/src/rules.rs` became a mutation subject in this delta, so `engine-rules` has to join the list in the same commit as the rows that make it one. The addition is one token a reviewer reads beside the rows it covers. Admits-answer-rejected-route: config read first — I read the list and the `engine-land`/`engine-hook`/`engine-policy` entries to establish both that the convention is `engine-<module>` and that the list is the only surface, and that reading is what produced the token rather than what avoided it: a name absent from a list cannot be added by reading it. patch run first is a commit-message route and does not apply to a manifest edit.

…ucer The first of CLOUD-1707's nine, and the one that proves the group is unblocked: `policy/branch-age.rego` has been registered since the forge producer landed and decided nothing until CLOUD-1810 gave a `record named` family a declaration. It decides now, so the program goes. THE SPLIT IS FORCED, NOT CHOSEN. `policy/branch-age.rego` takes every DECISION the program made — a tip past the threshold, a name heading more than one merged pull request while still on the remote, a present record naming no branch at all. `[tasks.branch-age-record]` keeps the two things that are not decisions: the `gh` reads and the civil-calendar subtraction. Section 5 makes `check` `read` and structurally incapable of spawning, and `Fact::Instant` projects `null` to every module, which `clippy.toml` and `crates/batten/tests/clock_ban.rs` hold the engine to. CLOUD-1559's reading rule from the other side: carry the decisions, not the steps. THE TIER IS NOT THE MODULE'S OWN SUITE, and the difference is this port's whole lesson. The module carries eleven `test_` rules and every one fabricates its input with `with input as` — so all eleven were green through a whole session in which the row decided nothing on any real checkout. `crates/batten/tests/it/branch_age.rs` runs the real module over a record the real producer's verb wrote, read through the engine's own projection: the one case no `with input as` can reach. THE LEDGER ACCOUNTS FOR ALL THIRTEEN of the dying suite's cases. Seven carried. Three `changed` onto `mise.toml`, because the trunk filter and both forge reads moved to the producer — and the could-not-look pair records a real behaviour change rather than a relocation: a failed read writes nothing and nothing is silence here, where the shell exited 2. A module refusing there would refuse every checkout with no credential. Two `changed` onto the module: there is no custom threshold to honour, and an unparseable line is a torn store because the producer refuses a malformed one while its author is watching. One `withdrawn`: "a nonsense today is exit 2" asserted a property of an arithmetic step that does not exist on a surface which reads no clock. One case title is qualified `suite::case`. `perf-compare.bats` carried one spelled identically, and `bats count dropped` reported the ambiguity against `perf_compare.rs:56` — a file this delta never touched. The ratchet conserves cases by TITLE across the whole tree. The module's `#MUTANT-EXEMPT` placeholder gives way to the three mutations it drafted, `$MUTANT_GATES` trades `branch-age-check` for `branch-age`, and `branch-hygiene.yml` runs the producer then the engine. 85 programs to 84.

…idator Both functions CLOUD-1810 added a line to sat exactly at the hundred-line cap, so both went one over. Compressing my own additions onto single lines cleared it locally and did not survive `rustfmt`, which split them back — so this is the structural fix rather than a second attempt at squeezing. `policy::load` gives up `source_key`, which reads better as a named function than as an inline `.or().or().ok_or_else()` chain: it answers one question, "which source does this policy row name", and the reason it refuses at all is the reason it is worth naming — `validate` already refuses a row naming none of the three, and this is the LOCATED restatement so a caller reaching `load` directly cannot get a silent skip. `validate_tables` gives up the record table's validator to `validate_sections`. `config.rs`'s own census scans both bodies, so the call site is still found and the table is still classified — which is the property that matters, because a table nothing validates is a refusal that cannot fire (CLOUD-253). The placement is forced by the cap rather than chosen, and the comment there says so. Neither cap is raised and no expectation is added. A function at its limit is a signal to extract, which is what the limit is for. Refs: CLOUD-1810

…engine The second and third of CLOUD-1707's nine, both taking the split `branch-age-check` established: the module gets every decision, the producer keeps every step section 5 forbids inside `check`. ATTESTATION — ONE DISTINCTION IS THE WHOLE GATE. `gh attestation verify` exits 1 both when an artifact has no provenance and when the platform never offered any, and those are opposite facts: the first is a release to fix, the second a plan feature this private repository does not have. The control that separates them is the attestations endpoint's own status code, so `[tasks.attestation-record]` probes with an all-zeros digest and records the posture beside each archive's verdict. A `posture 404` record fires nothing — `release-artifacts.yml` publishes unattested BY DESIGN until the repo is public (CLOUD-585) — while still being a READING, which is why posture is recorded rather than inferred from an empty archive list. The verifier, the download and the unpack are processes, and `check` is `read` and cannot start one. So the spawn stayed out and only the adjudication moved. THE `deny` ROW SURVIVES, REPOINTED. `release check unread` ran `attestation-check --precondition`; it now runs `[tasks.attestation-record] --precondition` — the same one fact, decided from the same local reading, at the same severity. Deleting the row would have removed a gate and owed a weakening; this changes only which program carries it. Its glob follows the check to `mise.toml`, which is both provably covered by hk's list and where the body now lives, keeping the trigger and the mechanism one object. TIMEOUT-DRIFT — THE POSTURE IS PRESERVED BY SEVERITY. The retired program reported and never blocked: it failed only its own scheduled run, filed no issue, posted no comment, because a budget that no longer matches reality means nothing is broken and no branch is at fault. `severity = "warn"` is that on the engine's contract, and a case asserts it — the same record that fires under `--fail-on-warning` leaves a plain `check` green. Its measurement cannot move in at all: a p95 over run durations is arithmetic on instants, and the engine calls no clock on any evaluation path. The producer subtracts the instants, pools matrix legs into one distribution, and records a row per job; the classification into loose/tight/grandfathered/unmeasurable is the module's. BOTH EXIT CONTRACTS CHANGED, and nine ledger arms ride on it. The shell ran `0/1/2` with `2` as could-not-look; the engine runs `0/1/2/3` where `2` is a FINDING. Carrying the shell's spelling over would have made every could-not-look a violation — so each of those arms is now the producer refusing at write time, loudly, while its author is watching, and writing nothing. An absent record is the module's silence. The retired `timeout-drift` gives the reason that carries: reporting a healthy budget as drifted on a network blip is what gets a scheduled gate switched off. Two gates caught real defects in this delta rather than formalities. The ledger's first draft used case titles I had written rather than the dying suites' own, and `bats count dropped` named all five. And mise runs a task body under `sh` unless it declares otherwise, so both producers' `set -euo pipefail` died on `Illegal option -o pipefail` — which the repointed `release check unread` row reported, correctly, as a check that could not run. 84 programs to 82.

…e engine CLOUD-484's pair was already split for CLOUD-1559's reason — a measurement needs the network and a token, a decision needs neither — so this port carried each half to the home the engine has for it and no decision changed hands. `nonverdict-assert` becomes `policy/nonverdict.rego`, registered as `job grade other`. `nonverdict-scan` becomes `[tasks.nonverdict-record]`, writing the `nonverdict` family through `batten record named`. The classification predicate could not move: whether a failed job reached a verdict is read off the Actions API's own `steps[]`, which section 5 keeps outside `check` by making it `read` and incapable of spawning. THE EXIT CONTRACT CHANGED, AND FOUR ARMS RIDE ON IT. The decider ran 0 under budget / 1 over / 2 could-not-look; the engine runs 0/1/2/3 where 2 is a FINDING. Both total-blindness arms — an empty roster, an unreadable run list — are now the producer refusing at write time and recording nothing, and an absent family is the module's silence. `unreadable` stays a finding because it is not blindness: it is a window read in PART, which is `bench-assert`'s partial-coverage false green. `severity = "warn"` HOLDS TWO CLAIMS THAT LOOK OPPOSED, and both are the retired pair's own. The decider argued that a rate which rises has to fail something or it becomes an artifact nobody opens; `nonverdict-rate.yml` argued that its failure is informational, because the platform having a bad afternoon is not a branch's fault. A warn finding leaves every `check` and every `verify` green while the scheduled job runs `--fail-on-warning` and reds on the rate. WHAT THIS DELTA SPENDS, stated rather than implied: the producer's classification jq — the predicate CLOUD-113 cost four jobs to get right — loses its dedicated coverage. `tests/nonverdict-scan.bats` stubbed `gh` and exercised it; no compiled-binary case reaches a shell task. The `carried` arms claim the RETIREMENT is covered by the module and the tier, which it is, and the tier's header says plainly that the producer's steps are not. Also fixes CLOUD-1825, which this campaign's own history exposed: `lease::tests::the_base_is_subtracted_rather_than_resent` asserted monotonicity in the base, which `objects_to_send` does not have — its subtraction is against the base's OWN tree, so a commit that deletes a path and a later one that restores it makes the WIDER base strictly smaller. It now compares against `None`, the state its own comment describes, and a new case builds that history and asserts the inversion directly rather than waiting for it to drift through the window again.

Admits-answer-precondition: A Rego module's fixture data lives in the module that uses it. `prose point other` refuses two of this module's own cases for naming a third party in a step-name fixture without a full 40-hex pin — the string was invented by me and names a vendor for no reason, since what the case needs is any step that is not a `mise run` one. Replacing it with `Set up job`, a real GitHub provisioning step name, can only be written in the module that holds the case. The module is new in this same diff. Admits-answer-rejected-route: config read first — reading the `prose point other` row is exactly how I learned the exclusion is a 40-hex pin and that the vendor name was gratuitous here; the reading produced the fix rather than removing the need for it. patch run first is a commit-message route and does not apply to a module edit.

`main` grew a `Vocabulary` construction site in `doctor.rs` while this branch was adding the `records` field to that struct (CLOUD-1810). Both changes are correct and neither conflicts textually, so the rebase merged them cleanly and produced a tree that does not compile — `missing field 'records' in initializer of 'policy::Vocabulary'`. THE SYMPTOM WAS NOT A BUILD ERROR, WHICH IS WHY IT IS WORTH A COMMIT MESSAGE. `verify`'s claim step reads `batten receipt status claim --key branch`, and that runs through `cargo run`. With the crate failing to build, the command emitted nothing and the step reported "this branch carries no VALID claim receipt" over three blank verdict lines — a build break wearing the costume of a missing receipt, which sent the reading at it twice. `None` would have been wrong: this path loads mediated-call modules, and a module reading a declared family needs the same projection every other caller gives it. `resolved.records` is what `check` passes. Refs: CLOUD-1810

…is inventoried CLOUD-1825's regression case builds a history whose `HEAD~1` deletes a path `HEAD` restores, which is the shape that refuted the old assertion. Building it needs `git`, and I put a `std::process::Command` in `src/lease.rs` to do it — which `clippy.toml` refuses, because a spawn is an inventory row (CLOUD-320). ANNOTATING IT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE WRONG FIX AND THE GATE SAYS SO. `policy/spawn-widening.rego` refuses an ADDED `#[expect(clippy::disallowed_types)]` escape, and `exec.rs` states the reason this change is not one: "an annotation is meant to record a spawn somebody decided on, not to be the cheap way past the lint." So the case moved rather than the lint bending. `common::git_in` is the sanctioned fixture route and it lives in the integration tier, so the case comes to it — `crates/batten/tests/it/lease_lifecycle.rs`, next to the rest of the lease's push machinery. It adds no spawn of its own. What stays in `src/lease.rs` is the corrected assertion alone, which needs no fixture: it compares a base against `None` over whatever history is checked out, and that bound is sound for every history shape. Found by `verify`'s clippy step. I had validated the original change with `cargo test` and never linted it, which is the step this repo's own per-retirement checklist names. Refs: CLOUD-1825

…to the engine CLOUD-492's pair was already split for CLOUD-1559's reason — a measurement needs the network and a token, a decision needs neither — so this port carried each half to the home the engine has for it and no decision changed hands. `land-divergence-assert` becomes `policy/land-divergence.rego`, registered as `lane grade other` over eight verdicts. `land-divergence` becomes `[tasks.land-divergence-record]`, writing the `land-divergence` family through `batten record named`. The pagination walk, the ETag cache, the `total_count` truncation guard and every instant subtraction stayed outside: section 5 makes `check` `read` and incapable of spawning, and `Fact::Instant` projects `null` to every module. A CANCELLED RUN IS NOT WASTE, AND THE RULE KEEPS THAT. Measured 2026-08-12 after serialisation: 5 green CI runs against 5 cancelled reads as a 50% discard rate and is the opposite — those cancels had p50 lifetime ~20s, the lease precondition killing an unauthorised matrix for ~20 runner-seconds instead of billing ~500. So the graded quantity is cancel LATENCY, never cancel count, and a case asserts both directions so a future author cannot collapse it into a count. THE EXIT CONTRACT CHANGED, AND SIX ARMS RIDE ON IT. The decider ran 0 under budget / 1 over / 2 could-not-look; the engine runs 0/1/2/3 where 2 is a FINDING. Both total-blindness arms — an unreadable CI run window, an unreadable merged-PR list — are now the producer refusing at write time and recording nothing, and an absent family is the module's silence. `unreadable` stays a finding because it is not blindness: it is a window read in PART, which the API's 1000-item pagination cap makes real. It once reported zero fast-forward refusals over a window carrying 598. `severity = "warn"` for `job grade other`'s reason, one surface over. Every metric here is a property of the fleet over a window and no branch causes any of them, which is why the retired pair was kept out of the hk gate and out of `verify` and why its own suite asserted that absence. The scheduled job runs `--fail-on-warning` and reds on the divergence. TRUE DIVISION WHERE THE SHELL TRUNCATED. Bash has no floats, so the decider's `$((x * 100 / n))` discarded the remainder and could report a ratio marginally under a budget it was over. The ratios are still in hundredths; the rounding is gone, which is what that case's own name asked for. WHAT THIS DELTA SPENDS, stated rather than implied: the producer's own steps — the conditional request, the 304 fallback, the truncation guard, the per-run join and the per-job read — lose their dedicated coverage. `tests/land-divergence.bats` stubbed `gh` and exercised all of them, and no compiled-binary case reaches a shell task. The `carried` arms claim the retirement is covered by the module and the tier, and the tier's header says plainly that those steps are not.

… added `target-prune` refused the tree: `[prune.warm.basis]` declared 255 test stems against a live 266, eleven past a tolerance of 10. That is the gate working. CLOUD-1717's corpus campaign owes a `crates/batten/tests/it/*.rs` per retired gate and has landed eleven of them, which is exactly the drift the basis exists to notice. Scaled by the stem model the block documents: 11642 at 255 is 45.65 per stem, and 45.65 x 266 is 12144. Derived rather than independently measured, and said so — an honest warm number needs a minimal post-prune tree, and the basis block asks that a reader who needs it exact take it rather than trust the line. `mb`, `worst_mb` and `measured` move together, and so do BOTH `basis.count` values, because refreshing one arm makes the next lap refuse on the other with warm never breached. THE LIVE COUNT IS 266 WHERE `git ls-files` SAYS 265, and that is not a discrepancy to average away. The engine's `Selector` sets `literal_separator(true)`, so its `**` matches zero directories as well as many and reaches `crates/batten/tests/policy_modules.rs`; git's pathspec does not. `count` is compared against the engine's reading, so it is the engine's. AND IT WRITES THE ROW THE BLOCK HAS OWED SINCE ITS SIXTH MISREPORT. Seven times `verify` has rendered a stem-count refusal as "not enough disk to run the gate, and pruning did not recover it" — this time over 18781MB free against an 11642MB floor, with `target-prune` printing that margin two lines above the caller's claim there was none. The sixth entry says the fix is a declared `[[verify_environment_pattern]]` and that "the pattern belongs with the measurement that justifies it". This is a measurement, so the row lands with it: `prune-basis-stale`, matching the CALLEE's sentence rather than the caller's wrapper, because keying on the wrapper would carry one specific remedy for every environment refusal the task emits.

The file's own entries state the remedy and its shape: scale warm by the stem model, move `mb`, `worst_mb` and `measured` together, and move both bases so refreshing one does not make the next lap refuse on the other arm. There is no other surface any of those four numbers lives on. Admits-answer-rejected-route: config read first — reading the prune block is exactly how I learned the stem model, the per-stem figure and the rule that both bases move together, and that reading produced the numbers rather than removing the need to write them; a stale floor cannot be re-measured by being read. patch run first is a commit-message route and does not apply to a config measurement.

…e fixture Two clippy errors in the tier's `config()` builder, both caught by `verify` rather than by me: `format_push_string` on the per-verdict append, and a missing backtick on `ETag` in the module doc. `write!` over the `fmt::Write` impl for `String` is the fix clippy names. It is infallible there, so the `expect` cannot fire — said in the comment so the next reader does not take it for an unhandled error path. I ran `cargo test` on this tier and not `mise run lint:clippy`, which is the step the per-retirement recipe lists. A 31-minute `verify` found what a seconds-long local lint would have.

Match roster names exactly; inside compares substrings.

CI_REQUIRED_CHECKS is comma-separated, so split(",") is correct. However, jq evaluates [.name] | inside($roster) using string containment, not exact membership. The non-required action job can match required entries such as action (ubuntu-latest), so a failed action job enters the population and affects the window counts.

`only_the_move_to_in_review_is_this_rows_business` minted one `issue-read` receipt and then made eleven adjudications against it. The receipt carries a recency bound, so on a loaded runner the later calls read a receipt that has already aged out and an ungated column (`Todo`) refuses with 2 where 0 is expected. The window, not the verdict, was the variable. Mint fresh before each call: what the case asserts is which column is this row's business, not how long a receipt lives.

A retirement deletes a program and no clause asked whether its CALLERS still resolve. `workflow run unknown` is that clause, and the tree it first ran over had five dead ones. ## What it found `batten check --rule 'workflow run unknown'`, over this branch before the repoint, exit 2 with five findings: .github/workflows/branch-hygiene.yml:63 .github/workflows/land-divergence.yml:102 .github/workflows/nonverdict-rate.yml:110 .github/workflows/release-assets.yml:135 .github/workflows/timeout-drift.yml:73 Two name tasks CLOUD-1717 deleted while porting their programs — `attestation-check` and `timeout-drift`. The other three run `mise run batten -- check --rule …`, and there has never been a `[tasks.batten]` at all. That is the more interesting half: the spelling was invented once, copied into two more files, and then read back as an established precedent by the next author to need it. Nothing about a dead caller decays. It was wrong on the commit that introduced it, and the only reason all three survived is that no surface was reading. ## Why none of them was ever going to be noticed Every one of those five steps sits in a job triggered by `workflow_run`, `schedule` or `workflow_dispatch`. None reaches a pull request: `ci-local-parity` holds its properties over `pull_request` workflows and `land` watches a PR's check-runs. So a workflow failing on 100% of its invocations is indistinguishable from one that has never fired — which is CLOUD-258's measurement exactly, and `release-assets.yml` is the same file that paid for it then and for CLOUD-1777 after. ## The predicate's third population, not a second authority `command-task-defined` asks "does this task exist" of a `[[rule]]`'s `check`; `verdict-routes-resolve` asks it of a `[[verdict.route]]`'s `target`; this asks it of a workflow step's `run`. Each owns its population and they share the `defined` shape deliberately, for the reason `verdict-routes-resolve`'s own header gives: two spellings of "what tasks exist" is the drift a shared question does not survive. One arm is new rather than copied. A file task's name is its path under `mise-tasks/` with the separator spelled `:`, so `mise-tasks/render/cli.sh` is `mise run render:cli` — which `release-artifacts.yml` calls. Taking the last path component alone resolves it as `cli`, leaves `render:cli` undefined, and refuses a caller that works. That is a false positive on the gate's first run, which `verdict-routes-resolve`'s header names as the shape that gets an exception written for it, and the exception is what rots. `#MUTANT nested-task-unreachable` is the row that keeps the arm honest. ## The parsed scalar decides; the lines only place the pointer These files carry long comments naming tasks in order to explain that they are ABSENT — `timeout-drift.yml:7` is one — and a gate that fires on its own documentation is a gate people delete. That is `ci-parity`'s rule and it binds here: the decision reads `step.run` from the parsed document, and the line index is consulted afterwards, for a task the parsed reading already decided on. Both tiers carry the case. An interpolated name abstains structurally. `mise run ${{ matrix.task }}` is not decidable from a committed document, and the shared `mise-run-task` pattern requires a lowercase letter where the name begins, so the fragment never matches. No guard is written for it; a conjunct excluded by the pattern before it ran is a surviving mutant rather than a safeguard. ## The tier is not the module's own suite Eleven load-time cases, every one fabricating its input with `with input as` — the shape `rules/policy-modules.md` warns about, and the shape two live dead gates in this repository were found in. `crates/batten/tests/it/task_callable.rs` runs the real module over real documents through the engine's own projection, and one of its seven cases asserts the finding lands on `probe.yml:9`: the pointer is the half most likely to be silently absent, because `line_sources` is a separate acquisition from `sources`. ## The repoint `[tasks.batten]` is a passthrough rather than a task per rule, and `lock-complete`'s comment is why that needs saying: its drift argument is about a TRIPLE — an hk step name, a task and a rule id, which hk selects between by name — and a workflow step names its task directly, so there is no second selector to drift against. Four near-identical wrapper rows would be the duplication rather than the guard. `timeout-drift.yml` and `release-assets.yml` take the two-step producer-then- engine shape `branch-hygiene.yml` already uses, because the split is forced: section 5 makes `check` `read` and incapable of spawning, so the `gh` reads are the producer's and the verdict is the engine's. After the repoint the same command exits 0.

Do not truncate dotted task names.

This pattern extracts mise run checksums from mise run checksums.sh. It also treats mise run present.typo as the defined task present.

Include . in the task-name grammar. Add a near-miss case that refuses present.typo when only present exists.

task_line scans comments and other YAML text. If a comment and a real caller name the same missing task, the policy emits an extra finding that points to the comment.

Judge callers against an empty task namespace.

A valid mise.toml can define zero tasks. If a workflow then calls mise run absent, defined is empty and both violation arms remain false.

Use manifest availability as the could-not-look guard. Do not use task cardinality.

…eaning sha256sum `batten show address` reads paths on stdin and writes one `<path>\t<address>` line apiece, where the address is `identity::ContentAddress` — the tree's existing answer to "what is this content", already carried by the capture store and by `DocumentInput`. ## Why a verb rather than leaving `sha256sum` alone `mise-tasks/checksums.sh` builds the release manifest by shelling `sha256sum`, and three separate things follow from that. It is the prerequisite for retiring that program onto the engine, so the verb lands first and on its own. **The digest is bare.** Sixty-four hex characters that name no domain and no version, so a manifest entry and any other sha256 in the tree are the same string, and nothing stops one computed for one purpose being compared against one computed for another. `ContentAddress` is domain-separated (`b3\0`, the version, the domain tag, the length) and renders as `b3-<version>-<64 hex>`, so the comparison `policy/release-assets.rego` will perform is a comparison of like with like — and a future change of domain or version is visible rather than silent. **The spelling differs per platform.** `sha256sum` on GNU, `shasum -a 256` on macOS. That is a second authority over one answer, which is the class `rules/policy-modules.md` refuses for parsers and `ci-parity`'s header refuses for the task graph. The engine already owns this answer. **The format was private.** Only that program wrote it and only that program read it. A manifest the engine can also produce is one a module can be handed. ## `read`, structurally `Effect::Read`, `data_channel: true`, in both of `spec.rs`'s read-only allowlists, and `surface::tests::every_leaf_under_show_is_read` is what keeps a writer from ever reaching that list through the noun's own `read`. The handler opens the paths it is given and writes to `out`; there is no path from it to a mutation or a spawn. ## An unreadable path refuses, and that is the load-bearing decision Exit 1, nothing written — never a partial manifest. Skipping the line would produce a manifest that is SHORT rather than absent, and a short manifest compares equal to a release that is genuinely missing that asset: a silent pass on precisely the question the manifest exists to answer. Exit 1 rather than 2 because §7 spends `2` on the policy verdict, and "this path is not there" is a claim about the invocation rather than about the tree. ## The cases `crates/batten/tests/it/show_address.rs`, five over the compiled binary. Two of them exist because the happy path cannot see what they check: a verb emitting a bare digest passes any case that only checks two files differ, and one that skipped an unreadable path passes any case that only checks a good one. So the address SHAPE and the failure DIRECTION are asserted directly, alongside content-addressing (identical bytes at two names get one address), and both channels carrying one reading. `show` is a noun over two leaves now rather than one, and `show_of`'s comment said "one leaf today" — corrected rather than left to go stale. Man pages and completions regenerated; `surface::the_committed_artifacts_are_exactly_the_ones_the_surface_declares` and `the_committed_completions_are_the_ones_the_binary_emits` hold both. Refs: CLOUD-1717

Reverts 334c109. The verb was sound and its cases passed; the premise it was built on is what does not hold, and a read verb with no caller is the dead surface this repository exists to refuse. ## What it was for, and why that is gone It landed as the prerequisite for retiring `mise-tasks/checksums.sh`, on the plan of turning the release manifest into `B3SUMS` carrying `<name>\t<content-address>` lines. Two things say that manifest must not change, and I read neither before writing the verb. **`checksums.sh:25-27` decides the format deliberately, and says why.** The name is `SHA256SUMS` and the format is `sha256sum`'s own "so verifying is the ordinary tool with no flags: `sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS` in a directory of downloaded assets. A manifest a packager needs a wrapper to read is not one." The header names the consumers — a Homebrew formula, an aqua/mise registry entry, `cargo binstall`. `release-assets-check.sh:268` verifies with that same tool, and `:213` parses that same format. Changing it is a breaking change to a published artifact, made as a side effect of an internal refactor. **CLOUD-1608 is Backlog and its acceptance criteria refuse it outright:** "Preserve all existing SHA-256 identities; specify algorithm-tagged versioning and migration/dual-read rules for any BLAKE3 namespace." The release manifest is an existing SHA-256 identity and the most compatibility-facing one there is. Which namespaces may move to BLAKE3 is precisely that row's open question, so migrating one here would be answering it in a commit that claims to be doing something else. CLOUD-1364 adopted BLAKE3 for canonical content addressing and is Done, which is what made the plan look already-decided. It is not the same question: that row's siblings (CLOUD-1360, 1366, 1368) are the capture store and the payload contract — Batten's own internal identities — and none of them is an artifact a packager downloads. ## Why revert rather than keep it against a future use Nothing calls it. The comparison it was meant to serve cannot use it either: the manifest side carries sha256, so an asset addressed with blake3 is not comparable to the entry claiming it, and the producer that records both must compute the same function on both sides. There is no caller in this tree and none in the retirement that follows. Keeping it would also leave 334c109's own message standing as a claim that is false — that this verb is the prerequisite for a retirement — which is worse than the surface it adds. The scope reminder is the rule being followed here: adopt prior art, do not expand the core. If CLOUD-1608 later admits a BLAKE3 namespace that wants a CLI reader, this commit is the diff to restore, and it will land with a caller. Refs: CLOUD-1717 Refs: CLOUD-1608
