Why

The guard in dogfood-gate.yml counted .a2ml files only:

COUNT=$(find . -name '*.a2ml' -not -path './.git/*' | wc -l)

so a repo whose manifest is written in the current grammar is reported as having none, and the
summary/compliance row is skipped by the same predicate (if find . -name '*.a2ml' ... | grep -q .).
The validator itself has scanned both grammars for a while -- the caller's predicate is the bug.

Authority

  • rsr-template-repo/.github/workflows/deed-validate.yml (the mint source) is what this wording is
    copied from, byte for byte, including -type f-free find and the dual-accept stance.
  • standards#837 — "DEED conversion campaign", campaign step 4: *"flip ... RSR gates from .a2ml
    presence to .deed presence alongside". Gate predicates, not document contents.
  • deed-ecosystem/README.adoc: "The DEED format name and .deed extension are final, not A2ML."

Deliberately not done

  • No .a2ml file is translated or renamed. #837 makes classification into the four DEED forms and
    per-family mapping specs a prerequisite for mass translation; that is not this PR.
  • No gate that reads a retained file is touched (CLAIMS.a2ml, .machine_readable/Debtfile.a2ml,
    contractiles/INDEX.a2ml); rewriting those would fail gates that currently pass.
  • No job-id or shell-var renames (a2ml-validate, A2ML_COUNT): they are referenced from needs:
    and ${{ needs.*.outputs }}. The Checks-UI label is updated, as it has no references.

Estate-wide .deed gate convergence, 2026-09-21. Script: estate-audit/engine/deed_gate_migration.py.

Mirrors `rsr-template-repo/.github/workflows/deed-validate.yml` and standards#837 step 4. No
`.a2ml` document is translated and no retained-input gate is touched.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Updated workflow warnings to accurately identify the required repository deed manifest.
    • Added support for recognising the legacy 0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml manifest during migration.
    • Corrected the warning shown when manifest files are missing.

Walkthrough

The workflow messages now identify <reponame>_chora.deed as the required manifest. They also state that legacy 0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml remains accepted during migration. The K9 warning and DEED scorecard label use the updated terminology.

Layer / File(s) Summary
Update manifest warnings and scorecard labels
.github/workflows/dogfood-gate.yml
The DEED and K9 warnings now reference missing .a2ml/.deed manifests and the required repo deed. The validation warning records legacy 0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml support. The scorecard labels the repo deed explicitly.

Keep the summary tied to the K9 check.

This branch runs when K9_COUNT is zero, regardless of whether .a2ml or .deed manifests exist. The warning therefore reports the wrong condition and omits the K9-specific explanation. Use a warning such as No K9 contracts found, and retain the k9iser generate . instruction.

Align the scorecard label with the accepted manifest types.

DEED_STATUS is marked successful when any .a2ml or .deed file exists. This label names only <reponame>_chora.deed, so a repository with only the accepted legacy .a2ml manifest can show a green status beside a misleading label. Mention legacy .a2ml support in the label during migration.
