Filing gate: ② process defect with a measured reach and a named fix site.

Found by: domain:server seats 3 and 4, in a manual re-scan the maintainer asked for on 2026-10-30 01:42Z (「任务很多啊，看看」). Measured on the board.

What is wrong

When triage parks a card, it writes pm:blocked on PR #N in the heading of its triage comment (prose), and sometimes "serial behind PR #N" in a bullet. It writes no canonical Blocked-by: #N line in either channel. The unlock paths read only that line:

the seat unlock scan greps the body for Blocked-by: (state-machine.md, platform-readings.md);
scheduled-full-run releases only body Blocked-by: targets that are closed issues in this repo;
check-half-states H4 flags pm:blocked with no Blocked-by: line, but that is a report, not a release.

Measured on 2026-10-30 ~01:45Z: 17 open, non-epic domain:server cards were in pm:blocked. For 14 of them the PR named in triage's comment had already MERGED, some of them hours earlier: #27810, #27767, #27755, #27752, #27750, #27743, #27729, #27728, #27719, #27696, #27672, #27669, #27633, #27732. Nothing released them, and lane seats skipped them as blocked. The seats unlocked them by hand when they claimed.

Wanted

One of these, triage's call:

When triage parks a card, it writes a canonical, line-anchored Blocked-by: #N line (an issue or PR number) in the card body, beside the label. The existing unlock paths then catch it. For a PR target, the release condition is "merged".
Or the unlock scan also reads the triage comment's pm:blocked on PR #N heading and releases when that PR has merged.

Option 1 keeps one marker. Either way, triage-duties.md names the line, and a pin or self-test shows that a card parked on a PR is released once the PR merges.

Business reason

Cards that are ready sit unclaimed while seats report "nothing claimable". The maintainer saw an idle lane with a full board.

Reader: the triage routine's owner and the pm-dispatch protocol (.claude/skills/pm-dispatch/references/triage-duties.md, state-machine.md, scripts/ci/scheduled-full-run.mjs).

Dedupe: I searched "pm:blocked Blocked-by unlock triage prose". #24322 (closed) covers the CI-card refresh wording only. None covers this.

Filed without domain:*; grading is triage's.

⛔ Not a claim. Triage's miss, owned: parking on a PR in prose, with no canonical line, stranded ready cards while seats reported nothing claimable.

Option 1 is adopted. When triage parks a card, it writes a line-anchored Blocked-by: #N in the card body (an issue or PR number), beside the label. The existing unlock paths read it. It is one marker, with no second recogniser.
Already applied from this round. Triage appended Blocked-by: to the bodies of its own still-blocked cards (service-messaging: EmailSenderSurface render/send inputs declare no currency, so both channels pass it by a spread that escapes the excess-property check #27754, core: an organization-probe store fault in localizationFallbackReach reads as unowned, so the delivery's missing default currency is graded permanent with no readFailed #27733, plugin-approvals: an expression approver with resolveAs: 'user' whose value names no account still opens a slot no one can take (the third sibling of #27397 / #27752) #27879, service-automation: a refusal met inside a try_catch catch region is dropped — the flow caller gets the catch-region failure as text without innerRefusal / userMessage #27876, service-automation: resuming a run paused at a map node by the PARENT run id completes the parent and leaves the parked item child suspended — accepted shape or a skipped item? #27877). It released the five whose PR has merged (rest: the async import late-cancel pin should assert its wait for the worker's results write actually completed #27839, spec(migrations): 219 semantic entries still carry the "No backticks in surface" workaround comment, and one family test still forbids a backtick, after #27532 fixed the renderer #27731, ci.yml filter: a diff confined to the root package.json packageManager field starts no UI job, though setup-pnpm reads it; plus the filter-parity gate header's stale bound #27717, docs: the /meta/diagnostics query table does not say an unknown type, severity or package is refused, or that stats is keyed by the canonical type (#27514 follow-up) #27632, qa checklist: studio-authoring.summary-field-authoring expects a count roll-up to carry summaryOperations.field, which #27533 makes optional #27608) back to pm:queue.
This card's PR: triage-duties.md names the line. The claimant measures that scheduled-full-run releases a target that is a merged PR (a closed issue number), and pins it.
Tier H. ⛔ No new gate.

The triage-duties.md line follows triage's option 1 as ruled (「an issue or PR number」). Out of the surface, reported for triage in a follow-up card: scheduled-full-run judges only its own CI cards; the hourly reverse scan's CLOSED listing returns no PR; state-machine.md's pm:blocked line points at the card a PR Fixes; the H19 resolver in check-half-states.mjs shares the closed-unmerged reading — stop on breach; explain in the report

ACCEPT → PR #27924 comment 6514892758 (register Tier S, .claude/**; contract review PASS 6514786457 on head 928dcbc; CI green). The seat flipped it ready and armed auto-merge. Follow-up #27925 carries the three should-fixes.

domain:skills#2 · os-elon-musk · session_016WV4d1QkPVVzNz3FJqb2iS

Landed: PR #27924 merged (e5c64d9ec, 2026-10-30T05:23Z) as Tier S (the register's claude-tree row) on contract review PASS 6514786457; pm:dispatched stripped with this note. From this commit triage writes a line-initial body Blocked-by: #N when it parks a card, and the full-run card step holds a card whose target is a closed-unmerged PR. The review's three should-fixes and the reverse-scan finding live on #27925. Nothing further owed on this card.
