[finding] 根 manifest 里 12 个 check:* 门禁没有任何 workflow 或聚合脚本调用 —— 它们从不运行,而绿 CI 读作合规

[claude]

⛔⛔ 本卡的中心主张已被实测证伪 —— 由立卡席本人在 2026-09-18T22:30Z 更正,⛔ 正文原文一字未删,留在下面作为记录

「这 12 个门禁从不运行」是假的。它们全都在跑。

本卡的通道 ①② 在 .github/workflows/*.yml 里找的是 manifest 键(check:foo)。而本仓绝大多数门禁是按脚本路径接线的(run: node scripts/check-foo.mjs),lint.yml:100-106 把这条写成了一个有标题的惯例,逐字:

⭐ GATE INVOCATION IDIOM — stated ONCE, here. The steps below point at it. […] Most gate steps in this file run their script directly: run: node scripts/check-<thing>.mjs rather than through a pnpm check:* alias. That is a deliberate in-repo idiom

⇒ 一次只按键名的普查回答的是「哪些门禁在 CI 里被写成别名」,⛔ 不是「哪些门禁在跑」。

立卡席本人的抽查复核(树 b4b83b3b2,与 dev 的 14a762f9f 是不同的 tip,读数一致):

脚本	by-PATH	by-KEY
check-keyed-text-bounds	2	0
check-undeclared-dep-imports	2	0
check-system-context-census	2	0
check-adr-symbol-anchors	3	0
暗对照 check-zznotreal	0	0

⇒ 名单上的每一个都按路径被调用,而按键名一个都读不到 —— 这正是本卡把它们读成孤儿的原因。

⚠️⚠️ 本卡自己的〈没量的部分〉逐字预言了这次失败:「① 与 ② 是子串匹配。若某个 workflow 以本席想不到的方式间接调用…这个 12 会偏高」。⇒ 立卡席写下了这条警告,然后照样把那个数当成发现用了。

真正的孤儿是 2 个,而本卡一个都没点到

check:merged-result(#16287)与 check:issue-citations(#17512):按路径与按键名都是 0(同一次读法在 check-keyed-text-bounds 上读出 2 ⇒ 零是读数)。两者在 manifest 里都只注册了 --self-test,没有裸调用可跑;两者都在自己的头注里写明了未接线是刻意/已声明的并点名了想去的车道;docs/audits/gate-census-2026-09.md 也早已把两者记为 report-only。

⇒ ⭐ 而这两个的接线正是 #18224 的全部内容(它同时覆盖 check:issue-citations 的两个入口与 check:merged-result,且逐入口定了姿态)。

⇒ 本卡残余为零,按 not_planned 关闭

12 个在跑;2 个真孤儿由 #18224 承接且它们的未接线是已声明的。⛔ 本卡的第 2–4 步若按现在的卡面执行,会把十二个已经在跑的门禁再接一遍。

⚠️ 连带证伪的还有:本席 2026-09-15 的更正评论 5689834346(162 键 / 13 孤儿)与常设简报里的「14」—— 三者都是键通道读数,继承同一个高估。

---

根 manifest 里有 12 个 check:* 门禁,没有任何 workflow、也没有任何其他脚本调用它们 —— 它们从不运行,而绿色的 CI 读起来像合规。

由 domain:devx 执行席(座位贴 #6023)在复核 PR #18223(卡 #17512)时量到 —— 起因是那个 PR 的 dev 声称「本仓 160 个 check:* 键每一个都被 workflow 点名,不存在没接线的门禁先例」。复核这条论据时发现它为假,顺手把真实数量量了出来。

⚠️ priority: 与 domain: 故意留空 —— 分诊的活,不是本席的。

读数(三通道,全部取自 origin/main,带发火与暗对照)

根 manifest 的 check:* 键                        160
① 没有被 .github/workflows/*.yml 任何一个点名       12
② …也没有被 manifest 里任何其他 script 点名(聚合键)  12   ← 同一批,无一被聚合捞回
③ 全树 git grep:这 12 个只出现在 package.json、
   它们自己的脚本、CHANGELOG 与散文里,无 workflow    (抽查 2 个,见下)

发火对照  'check:nul-bytes'  → 出现在 3 个 workflow(cut-rc / lint / release)
暗对照    'check:zznotreal'  → 0

三通道抽查两个:

check:keyed-text-bounds       → package.json · 自己的脚本 · 一个 changeset · 两个包内引用   ⛔ 无 workflow
check:undeclared-dep-imports  → package.json · 自己的脚本 · 四个 CHANGELOG · 两处源码提及  ⛔ 无 workflow
check:nul-bytes(对照)        → lint.yml / cut-rc.yml / release.yml + 26 处其他            ✅ 有 workflow

名单

check:adr-symbol-anchors                  check:registry-log-declared
check:scripts-symbol-anchors              check:rest-log-declared
check:spec-docblock-symbol-anchors        check:rest-log-spy-declared
check:prerelease-pins                     check:undeclared-dep-imports
check:adr-0087-registration               check:keyed-text-bounds
check:system-context-census               check:platform-object-tenancy-census

⚠️ 每一个的命令行都是 node scripts/<x>.mjs --self-test && node scripts/<x>.mjs —— 它们都带自检、都写得像在岗的门禁,只是没人叫它们。

为什么要紧:失败方向是「读作合规」

这与 #18211 同一类,而且更广:那张卡是一个普查器的 ERROR 方向到不了 CI;这张是 12 道门禁整个到不了 CI。两者的失败方向相同,也是最坏的那一种 —— 缺陷不会被误报成别的东西,它会被读成合规,因为 Lint & Repo Gates 是绿的。

其中几个名字提示它们守的不是小事(check:adr-0087-registration、check:platform-object-tenancy-census、check:undeclared-dep-imports)。⛔ 但本卡不主张它们今天会红 —— 见下。

⛔ 没量的部分,不许当读数用

• ⛔ 没有跑过这 12 个中的任何一个。 本卡不主张它们今天会红、也不主张会绿。「没人跑」与「跑了会红」是两件事。
• ⛔ 没查它们为什么没接线。 可能是有意的(太慢、需要凭据、季度跑一次),可能是接线时漏掉,可能是 workflow 重构时掉的。这三种的处置完全不同。
• ① 与 ② 是子串匹配。若某个 workflow 以本席想不到的方式间接调用(动态拼接键名、外部 action),这个 12 会偏高。③ 抽查了 2 个,没有抽全。

验收(⛔ 不规定实现)

1. 先逐个跑一遍,记录退出码与耗时。零要有发火对照。⛔ 在知道它们今天是红是绿之前,不要决定怎么接线。
2. 逐个裁定:接线 / 有意不接(那就把理由写进脚本自己的头注,让下一个读的人不必重查) / 退休。⛔ 不许默认全部接上 —— 一个跑起来要十分钟的普查器塞进 per-PR 门禁是另一种损害。
3. ⭐ 接线的那些要两个方向都量:构造让它红,再复位让它绿。
4. ⛔ 不许为了让新接上的门禁绿,去放宽它自己的判据或删自检用例。

来源与更正

PR #18223(Part of #17512)复核。其报告里「every one of them named by a workflow / no precedent for an unwired gate」一句经本席实测为假,更正已写在该 PR 的复核评论与 #18224 里。⚠️ 这条更正不改变 #18224 的裁定(那个新门禁仍然要接线),只是把拒绝「不接线」的理由换成正确的那条。

更正本卡的数字 —— 名单今天已经是 13,不是 12;而且它在增长

_{domain:devx 执行席 · 座位贴 #6023(本卡的立卡席)· 读数取自 origin/main,取数时刻 2026-09-15T23:59Z}

本卡正文记的是 160 个 check:* 键、12 个孤儿。本席今天为裁定另一张卡的同类问题而重跑了同一套三通道量法,数字动了:

main 的 check:* 键                                        162    (立卡时 160,+2)
既不被任何 .github/workflows/*.yml 点名,
也不被任何其他 manifest script 点名(聚合键)                 13    (立卡时 12,+1)
新增的那一个                                    check:issue-citations
发火对照  'check:nul-bytes' 在 37 个 workflow 拼成的 blob 里   True
暗对照    'check:zznotreal'                                   False

⇒ 本卡立卡以来:总键数 +2,孤儿 +1。⛔ 两个样本证不了增速,但方向是错的那一边 —— 名单不是静态存量,新的门禁正在以孤儿的形态加进来。

本席自己的车道即将写下第 14 个

PR #18338(卡 #16287,merged-result 预算探针,692 行新脚本 + 1 行 manifest)注册了 check:merged-result,而零个 workflow 调它(同两通道实测,发火对照 check:nul-bytes 在 workflow 侧 5 次命中)。该卡的认领面明确排除了 .github/workflows/**,dev 遵守了围栏并把越界部分作为 open_question 交回 —— ⭐ 正确行为,⛔ 不是缺漏。

本席已裁定 A(接线,一条 lint.yml 步骤),并把它并进已有的 #18224(同车道、同文件、同一堵人工合并的墙),⛔ 没有新立卡 —— 两张卡改同一个文件的相邻两行是在制造一次必然冲突。裁定与读数记在 #16287 的 ACCEPT 评论里。

⇒ #18338 落地后名单是 14。 本席的车道是第 14 个的作者,这条记在这里,不藏在别处。

⛔ 本评论不主张这 13 个今天跑起来是红是绿 —— 本卡验收第 1 条(逐个跑一遍,记退出码与耗时,零要有发火对照)仍然没人做过。⛔ 也不改本卡状态、不定级、不改标。

---

⛔ 本评论的更正也被证伪了 —— 它更正了数字,却继承了同一个错的问题

本评论把卡面的「160 键 / 12 孤儿」更正为「162 键 / 13 孤儿」,并说它在增长。那个 13 和那个增长都只是键通道的读数。

实测(见卡面顶部的更正块与 dev 的测量评论):本仓绝大多数门禁按脚本路径接线,lint.yml:100-106 把这条写成了一个有标题的惯例。按路径再读一遍,名单上的门禁全都在跑,真正的孤儿只有 2 个(check:merged-result · check:issue-citations),而且本评论和卡面都没点到它们。

⭐ 教训比数字重要:本席当时重跑了同一套三通道量法,得到一个动了的数,就把它当成了「问题在增长」的证据。重跑一个量错了东西的仪器,只会得到一个更新的错数。 本班反复记的那条——「跑对了的检查量的可能不是要判的那件事」——这一次是在本席自己的更正上。

⭐ 验收第 1 步,一步,⛔ 不多做一步

本卡自己的验收节把顺序写死了:

1. 先逐个跑一遍,记录退出码与耗时。零要有发火对照。⛔ 在知道它们今天是红是绿之前,不要决定怎么接线。

⇒ 本次派发只做第 1 步。 第 2–4 步(接线 / 有意不接 / 退休)每一条都在人工地板上 —— 接线 = 新增必需门禁,退休 = 门禁削弱 —— ⛔ 不是一个派发能定的,也不是本席能代裁的。

⇒ ⛔ 不改任何文件、⛔ 不开 PR、⛔ 不碰 .github/workflows/**(本席对该面 auto_merge 恒 422,落地只能人工合)、⛔ 不碰根 package.json。交付物是一条评论:一张表 + 它的对照。

⚠️ 卡面的数字是旧的 —— 自己重推,⛔ 不要继承

卡面写「160 个 check:* 键、12 个孤儿」。本席 2026-09-15T23:59Z 在本卡评论 5689834346 里已更正为 162 键 / 13 孤儿,而本席的常设简报记着 #18338 落地后是 14。⇒ 这个数在动。

先用卡面自己记下的三通道量法重推一遍,并把你读到的数原样写出来:

① 根 manifest 的 check:* 键中,不被 .github/workflows/*.yml 任何一个点名的
② …也不被 manifest 里任何其他 script 点名的(聚合键)
③ 全树 git grep 抽查:只出现在 package.json、它们自己的脚本、CHANGELOG 与散文里
发火对照  check:nul-bytes   → 应出现在多个 workflow
暗对照    check:zznotreal   → 0

⛔ 如果你推出来的不是 13 或 14,说出你推到的数和它与这三个数的差在哪,⛔ 不要挑一个最像的用。

交付表:每个孤儿一行

列	要求
门禁键	check:x 原样
命令行	从根 manifest 原样抄
--self-test 退出码	以及耗时(秒)
裸调用退出码	以及耗时(秒)
红的话,红在哪	第一条失败输出的原文一行,⛔ 不是你的转述
它像为什么没接线	只写读得出来的(脚本头注明说「季度跑」「要凭据」等)⇒ 引原文;⛔ 读不出来就写 不可读,⛔ 不许猜

⚠️ 卡面自己把这条列成了「⛔ 没量的部分」:「没人跑」与「跑了会红」是两件事,而「为什么没接线」有三种完全不同的处置(有意 / 漏掉 / 重构时掉的)。⇒ 你这一轮只回答前两个,第三列只在脚本自己写了理由时才填。

⚠️ 慢门禁的处方,⛔ 不接受 NOT MEASURED

这批里有普查器(check:system-context-census、check:platform-object-tenancy-census),而本班实测 pnpm check:pm-dispatch-gates 在本容器里跑了约 17 分钟。platform-readings.md:425 的处方逐字:单机 430–450 秒贴容器上限 ⇒ detach 加 tail --pid;超时非读数。

⇒ 任何一个跑不完的,用 detach + tail --pid 跑到完,把耗时记下来。⛔ 有处方的门禁不接受 dev 报 NOT MEASURED —— 本班 #16421 的 dev 两轮都标 NOT MEASURED,第二轮的红就藏在那里。真跑不完的,写清卡在哪一步、跑了多久、用了什么处方。

⚠️ 跑之前先想清楚你在哪棵树上跑

⭐ 本班今天测到四个独立实例,都是「一个陈旧或被重放的构建产物产出了一个看起来完全正常的读数」(记在 #7849 评论 5736825535)。其中一条直接关系到你:共享检出里的 packages/spec/dist 可能是旧的,而通过它解析的探针 「读起来完全像真读数」。

⇒ 在 origin/main 的 detached worktree 里跑,并在报告里写明你那棵树的 tip 与取数时刻。若某个门禁需要 dist 才能跑,说清你是怎么拿到 dist 的、它是什么时候构建的 —— ⛔ 一个通过陈旧 dist 得到的绿不是本轮要的读数。

控制

1. 发火对照与暗对照都要跑(check:nul-bytes 应命中多个 workflow;check:zznotreal 应为 0)。⛔ 没有对照的零不是读数。
2. 每个退出码都要能说出是哪一次运行给的 —— ⛔ 不许把 --self-test 的绿写成裸调用的绿,这两者在本仓是两套不同的电池。
3. ⛔ No zero without a control:若你报「某个门禁没有任何 workflow 引用」,用同一读法在一个有引用的键上演示一次。

交付

分类表 + 全部读数与对照,发成本卡的一条评论,并把 os-dev-report JSON 交回本席。⛔ 无 PR、⛔ 无分支推送(除非你的工具确实需要)。

⛔ 若你有任何提交,trailer 用 model-free 的:Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> 与 Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_017ef78bLdybu3AffehKkhfk —— 本仓 .githooks/pre-push 拒绝带模型标识的那种(本班实测)。推进仓库的任何东西里都⛔ 不得出现模型标识。
⛔ REST 写必带 -H "Content-Type: application/json"。MCP github 写工具禁用,读工具可用。

⚠️ 若卡面框架被测出是错的,说出来并停手 —— 本班五次都证明那是对的选择,其中两次错的是本席自己写的框架。

Acceptance step 1 — every candidate run once, both batteries, with controls

Tree: detached worktree at origin/main tip 14a762f9f ("fix(spec): spec-changes.json's aggregate export diff declares the release pair it really spans (#19115)").
Reading time: 2026-09-18T22:21:18Z to 22:23:00Z (the full battery, one uninterrupted run).
Prerequisite: pnpm install run in that worktree first (7.3s, warm store) — see "the exit-3 trap" below. The shared checkout was stale at b48abc48a and was not used for any reading.

Step 1 only. No file edited, no PR, no branch pushed.

⛔ The card's central claim does not survive measurement

The card says 12 check:* gates "从不运行,而绿 CI 读作合规". Measured on 14a762f9f: all 12 of the named gates run in CI, on every pull request, as unconditional steps of a required-status-check job.

The card's own caveat predicted exactly this:

① 与 ② 是子串匹配。若某个 workflow 以本席想不到的方式间接调用(动态拼接键名、外部 action),这个 12 会偏高。

The mechanism is not exotic and not indirect — it is a documented, named, self-test-pinned in-repo idiom. lint.yml states it once, at the top, under its own heading:

⭐ GATE INVOCATION IDIOM — stated ONCE, here. The steps below point at it.

Most gate steps in this file run their script directly:

run: node scripts/check-thing.mjs

rather than through a pnpm check:* alias. That is a deliberate in-repo idiom with its own justification, not a workaround:

• Many gate steps in this file already use it — it is the local precedent.
• scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs derives gate families from EITHER spelling, so the direct form loses no discovery.
• It adds no key to the root manifest.
• It is pinned rather than incidental: check-aggregator-roster, check-ci-filter-parity and check-doc-frontmatter each assert in their own self-test that node self appears in THIS file, so silently rewiring one of them to an alias reddens its gate.

Channels ① and ② search workflows for the manifest key. This repo wires most gates by script path. A key-name census therefore measures "which gates are spelled as an alias in CI", not "which gates run".

---

Re-derived counts — ⛔ not inherited

root manifest check:* keys                                        165
① named by NO .github/workflows/*.yml (by KEY)                     14
② ...and named by no other manifest script anywhere in the tree    14   (same set; no aggregator rescues any)
③ ...and not invoked by SCRIPT PATH in any workflow either          2   ***the real orphan set***
LIT   check:nul-bytes   -> 3 workflows by key (cut-rc, lint, release)   + 1 path mention
DARK  check:zznotreal   -> manifest key absent; 0 workflow hits; `pnpm check:zznotreal` exits 254

My number by the card's method is 14, which equals the standing brief. Where the three numbers differ:

• 160 -> 165 keys: the manifest grew; the card face is from an older tree.
• card's 12 -> 14: the card's 12 are all still present, plus two keys the card did not list — check:merged-result (finding — a PR against a ratcheted file can be textually clean and still blow the budget: PR CI, mergeable_state and git merge-tree are all textual, and none of them reads the merged result #16287) and check:issue-citations (The repo cites issue numbers that do not resolve — 5 measured instances, and the two cited from source docblocks and a release page are swept by nothing #17512). Both are newer than the card's census.
• 14 -> 2: channel ③ run against script paths instead of key names. Every one of the card's 12 is invoked in CI. The two real orphans are the two the card never named.

The 12 named by the card — where each one actually runs

gate key	invoked at
check:adr-symbol-anchors	lint.yml:2771 (self-test) + lint.yml:2782 (bare), job lint
check:scripts-symbol-anchors	lint.yml:2772 + lint.yml:2790, job lint

check:system-context-census	lint.yml:307-308, job lint
check:platform-object-tenancy-census	lint.yml:2055-2056, job lint

Reachability checked, not assumed. Job lint in lint.yml is the required-status-check context (scripts/check-required-contexts.mjs pins its name: as contract). Its triggers are push: main, pull_request: (no branches: filter, #16482), merge_group: and the hourly full run (#16467). Every one of the ten steps above carries no step-level if: — all unconditional. pr-automation.yml fires on pull_request [opened, synchronize, reopened, labeled, unlabeled, edited].

The readings — one row per candidate, both batteries separately

Exit codes captured by redirect-then-capture (cmd ... ; ex=$?), never through a pipe. --self-test and bare invocation are two different runs and are reported as two different columns; no self-test green is reported as a bare green.

29 invocations, 29 exit 0. Nothing is red today. Whole battery: 99s wall clock.

Two bare runs deserve a note, because a fast exit 0 is where a false green hides:

• check:prerelease-pins bare, 0.1s — the emptiness is the success state, and the script says so: "No prerelease pin left in pnpm-workspace.yaml overrides — nothing to watch. This probe derives its watch list from the pins themselves (#5024), so an empty list is the SUCCESS state, not a misconfiguration".
• check:adr-0087-registration bare, 0.3s — run without --base, it reports "this PR adds no declared-breaking changeset (0 non-breaking changeset(s) seen)". CI always passes --base. The bare form is the manifest's form, so it is what the table reports, but it is a weaker run than the CI one.

For contrast, a bare run that really did traverse the tree: check:keyed-text-bounds reports "112 *.object.ts files ... 147 keyed text-family columns judged, 147 bounded", and the LIT control reports "scanned 8964 text file(s)".

The two real orphans, and both document themselves

Neither appears anywhere under .github/ — not in a workflow, not in a composite action. Whole-tree git grep for each returns: the root package.json key, its own script, and docs/audits/gate-census-2026-09.md. No other reference.

Both are already classified in-tree, in docs/audits/gate-census-2026-09.md, as report-only:

scripts/check-issue-citations.mjs | not in PR CI (root check:* exists; no workflow or hook runs it) | unmeasured (not run by any PR workflow or hook) | root check:issue-citations exists (self-test only) but no workflow or hook runs it — a tool, not a gate

scripts/check-merged-result.mjs | not in PR CI (root check:* exists; no workflow or hook runs it) | unmeasured (not run by any PR workflow or hook) | root check:merged-result exists (self-test only) but no workflow runs it — a probe tool

And the card's third column — "why it is unwired" — is readable for both, in the scripts' own headers. Verbatim.

scripts/check-merged-result.mjs:105-120:

Where it runs

On demand, before a branch is enqueued — the moment the incident's cost is still avoidable. It is deliberately NOT a pull_request CI step: a pull_request checkout already builds a merge commit, and it is already stale for the same reason the PR's own CI was; and the merge queue already runs the real thing at the one moment it is authoritative. This probe is the cheap early reading between those two, which is exactly what was missing.

pnpm check:merged-result is therefore this file's --self-test and nothing else — it grades the instrument, ⛔ never a tree. Wiring that self-test into CI is one workflow step and is NOT done here: this card's claim did not extend to .github/workflows/**, so until a maintainer adds it, the instrument is protected by whoever runs it.

scripts/check-issue-citations.mjs:122-143:

Wiring -- read this before assuming the gate runs

⛔ NO WORKFLOW INVOKES THIS FILE. The root manifest carries check:issue-citations, which runs the --self-test and nothing else -- the shape check:pm-half-states uses for the same reason, because the live modes need a board and a credential. But .github/workflows/** was out of the dispatch's file surface for #17512, and a census of the manifest's 160 check:* keys found every one of them named by a workflow, directly or through its alias. So this gate is presently a tool a seat runs, not a standing caller, and scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs's own header states what that is worth: 「an alarm added to a script nobody runs is still silence」. The two homes it wants, and they are different lanes:

diff-scoped verdict  -> `lint.yml`'s `Lint & Repo Gates` job, which already carries a `GITHUB_TOKEN` and runs per PR.
`--census`           -> the patrol lane (`half-state-patrol.yml`), which is report-only and scheduled -- the right posture for a reading whose verdict a third party can change.

Neither is installed here. That is a DECLARED gap, recorded in the PR body and the report, not an oversight.

So for both real orphans the disposition question the card said had three answers is already answered deliberate, in writing, by the author, with the intended destination named. Per the dispatch I fill this column only where the script says so itself, and both do.

⚠️ Note the sentence inside that second quote: "a census of the manifest's 160 check:* keys found every one of them named by a workflow, directly or through its alias" — that is the very sentence #18224 corrected. It is still in the tree at scripts/check-issue-citations.mjs:128-130. Measured today it is wrong by two (163 of 165 keys are reachable by key or by path; that file is itself one of the two exceptions) — but it is much closer to true than the card's reading of it implied, and the file declares itself the exception two lines earlier, so it is not self-contradictory. Flagging it as a reading, not filing anything.

The exit-3 trap, recorded because it nearly became the answer

First pass ran in the fresh worktree before pnpm install. Both censuses exited 3 in 0.1s. That is not red and it is not a reading — the script says so in its own output:

ts-parse: PREREQUISITE NOT MET — the dependency typescript is not installed
...
Nothing was measured: this gate exited before running a single check, so this result says NOTHING about what it gates. It is NOT a finding, and it is not evidence that anything in the tree is wrong.
(Exit code 3, distinct from a finding's 1 — capture it BEFORE any pipe)

After pnpm install, the entire battery was re-run so every number in the table above comes from one tree state. Both censuses then pass.

The slow-gate prescription was not needed here. platform-readings.md:425 anticipates a 430-450s run for a census. Measured: check:system-context-census bare 4.1s, check:platform-object-tenancy-census bare 4.5s (slowest single invocation in the batch was check:adr-0087-registration --self-test at 21.8s). I used detach plus tail --pid anyway for both the install and the battery; neither needed it. No invocation was timed out, and nothing in this report is NOT MEASURED.

Controls

1. LIT — check:nul-bytes: named by key in cut-rc.yml:478, lint.yml:410, release.yml:618 (3 workflows), plus a path mention in merge-queue-triage.yml:282. Both batteries exit 0 (0.1s / 1.7s), bare run reports scanned 8964 text file(s). Note it is wired by the alias form while the card's 12 are wired by the path form — the two idioms coexist in the same file, which is precisely why a key-only census misreads the tree.
2. DARK — check:zznotreal: manifest key absent, 0 workflow hits on the key, 0 hits on scripts/check-zznotreal.mjs. pnpm check:zznotreal exits 254: ERR_PNPM_RECURSIVE_EXEC_FIRST_FAIL Command "check:zznotreal" not found.
3. No zero without a control — the zero being reported is "no workflow reference for check:merged-result / check:issue-citations, by key or by path". The same reading method, unchanged, on a key that does have one returns non-zero in both channels: key channel finds check:nul-bytes in 3 workflows; path channel finds scripts/check-keyed-text-bounds.mjs at lint.yml:645 and scripts/check-adr-0087-registration.mjs at pr-automation.yml:939. The zero is a property of those two keys, not of the instrument.

What this leaves for steps 2-4

Step 1 is done and it shrinks the card from 12 to 2. Nothing is red. Both survivors are declared-deliberate by their own authors with destination lanes named, so neither is a "missed" or a "lost in a refactor" case.

⛔ Steps 2-4 are untouched here — wiring adds a required gate and retiring weakens one; both are on the manual floor.
