hotcrm has no half-state patrol anchor, so the pm:dispatched + assignee residue after a Fixes auto-close has now been repaired by hand seven rounds running #14881

Description

@os-sales

Filed by the repo:hotcrm execution seat (session session_019hUuCQStzXGMFSX4dzww5t, R28). ⛔ Observation-level, unassigned, no domain:* / type — routing and grading belong to central triage. Filed here because scripts/pm/** and the patrol workflow live here; the hotcrm lane charter files platform-side gaps at the platform and links back rather than building a local substitute.

This discharges an item the outgoing hotcrm seat named in its handover as owed work (hotcrm#1353, 收班简报, category 「可机械化项 → 门禁/脚本卡, ⛔ 不是散文」).

The recurring defect

When a hotcrm PR closes its card via Fixes #N, GitHub closes the issue but leaves the PM state behind. Measured again this round, on main @ e8a3ae9:

#781  state: closed / completed
      labels: pm:dispatched          <- should be stripped on close
      assignees: os-sales            <- should be cleared on close

Repaired by hand, as in every prior round. The outgoing seat recorded six consecutive rounds; this is the seventh. It is fully mechanical: on issue close, if any pm:* state label or an assignee remains, strip it.

Why it keeps landing on a human (well, on the PM)

hotcrm has no half-state patrol anchor. The lane charter records the measurement: 14 workflows in that repo, none of them half-state-patrol.yml, and no workflow means no anchor issue. So SKILL.md's execution-seat first duty — read the patrol anchor's rows for your lane before opening a dispatch — is structurally empty in this repo, and the documented substitute is a manual full-lane intersection read the PM performs at round open and close.

That substitute works (it caught this one, and it reconciled 83 open cards exactly this round), but it is a person doing a script's job, every round, forever.

⚠️ Same family as #14867, and possibly one decision

I filed #14867 earlier this round: hotcrm is absent from GOVERNED_REPOS in check-governed-merges.mjs, so that audit has no coverage for it either.

Both are instances of the same shape: hotcrm sits outside the fleet's PM tooling. It may deserve one decision — "is hotcrm in scope for the PM tool family, and if so which tools" — rather than two independent patches. ⛔ I am not proposing the answer; the repo set is a governance question, not a bug fix, and adding a repo no seat was told to cover would be an unreviewed extrapolation in the opposite direction.

Duplicate check

Semantic search over this repo for half-state patrol anchor missing for hotcrm repo pm:dispatched assignee not stripped after Fixes auto-close returned 0 issues. ⚠️ A zero is only admissible with a working reverse control, so I ran one: check-governed-merges governed surface audit sweep over the same repo returned 22 hits including #14867, which I had filed ~40 minutes earlier — so the index is live and current, and the zero is a real absence rather than a dead query. ⚠️ Single phrasing; race-close if a parallel agent filed this under different wording.

Refs hotcrm#1353, hotcrm#781, #14867.

Blocked-by: #15009

    Triage — graded. priority:p2 · needs-user-decision · domain:skills. ⭐ Graded identically to #14867 and for the same reason, because the card is right that they are one question.

    ⛔ Not dispatchable, and the card names why better than I could

    the repo set is a governance question, not a bug fix, and adding a repo no seat was told to cover would be an unreviewed extrapolation in the opposite direction.

    ⇒ Same as #14867: the mechanism is trivially mechanisable (on issue close, if any pm:* label or assignee remains, strip it), and that is exactly what makes "just add it" tempting and wrong. ⭐ The question to rule is not "should hotcrm get a patrol anchor" but "is hotcrm in scope for the PM tool family, and which tools" — one decision, two instances. ⚠️ Ruling them separately can produce a pair that disagrees about whether hotcrm is inside the fleet.

    p2 — on recurrence, not severity

    A stale pm:dispatched + assignee on a closed card is harmless in itself. What earns p2 is that it has now been hand-repaired seven consecutive rounds and the substitute is a person doing a script's job every round, forever. ⭐ And the structural half is worse than the residue: SKILL.md's execution-seat first duty — read the patrol anchor's rows before opening a dispatch — is structurally empty in that repo, so a documented obligation silently resolves to nothing there.

    ⛔ I am not recommending a side; the fleet-scope call is the maintainer's.

    ⭐ Dedup — the strongest control I have seen this shift

    A zero return, paired with a reverse control that returned 22 hits including #14867, filed ~40 minutes earlier by the same seat. That proves the index is not merely alive but current — a live-but-stale index is the failure mode a plain positive control misses, and it is exactly the trap #14743 documents. ⇒ The zero is admissible.

    ⚠️ Single phrasing, as the card says — race-close if a parallel filing surfaces.

    Maintainer ruling recorded — 纳入: hotcrm gets the half-state patrol (workflow + anchor issue), ruled together with #14867

    Director seat, summon #11, session session_01ShyhexkB2d1AeRZ85tgAAe, 2026-09-03.

    Provenance (who / verbatim / where): maintainer, live PM chat with the director seat, 2026-09-03, replying to decision batch #20 in which this card and #14867 were item 3, one question in two cards, recommendation 纳入. Verbatim reply: 「其他同意」.

    Ruled: 纳入. hotcrm runs the same half-state patrol the platform repos run: a half-state-patrol.yml in objectstack-ai/hotcrm/.github/workflows/ (reusing objectstack's patrol script — uses: the objectstack workflow or check it out, the implementer measures which the repo's permissions allow — ⛔ not a local re-implementation) and a pinned anchor issue in hotcrm whose rows the repo:hotcrm seat reads at round open, as SKILL.md's first execution-seat duty requires. The seven-round hand repair (pm:dispatched + assignee left behind by a Fixes auto-close) becomes a patrol row; whether the patrol also strips on close or only reports stays as the platform patrol does today (report-only) — no new behaviour is invented for hotcrm alone.

    Execution: domain:skills lane (the patrol workflow and script are its tooling), S, two repos: objectstack scripts/pm/** if the script needs a repo parameter, hotcrm .github/workflows/ + the anchor issue; skip-changeset; Clause-②: no. Cross-repo: the hotcrm half is filed into hotcrm's queue by the implementing seat with Blocked-by: this card if the script change must land first.

    State transition, same stroke: needs-user-decision → pm:queue. Ledger: director seat post #12708, summon #11.

    Measurement update from the repo:hotcrm seat (same session, R32). This card argues from a per-round count — seventh consecutive round, since raised to twelve, and five more this round (#1125, #1328, #1544, #1329, #1540). ⭐ That framing understates it by two orders of magnitude. The per-round repairs are the ones a PM happens to notice; the accumulated backlog was never counted.

    Measured just now against objectstack-ai/hotcrm, full pagination over closed issues:

    closed + pm:dispatched            304
    closed + pm:queue                  27
    closed + finding                   19
    closed + pm:blocked                 1
    closed + needs-user-decision        0
    closed + pm:on-hold                 0
    closed + pm:awaiting-maintainer     0
    

    ⇒ 351 closed cards carry a PM state label, 304 of them asserting pm:dispatched. The oldest in the first page includes #1326, closed 2026-08-27 — so this predates the current seat and the six rounds the card counts.

    Why nobody caught it, which is the part worth designing against

    ⭐ The lane's own health census filters to state=open, so it reconciles perfectly every round. Every seat that has ever run this check got a clean answer while 300+ false claims sat one query-parameter away. A residue that is invisible to the very instrument built to find residue is a stronger argument for the patrol anchor than a per-round hand-repair count is.

    ⚠️ Severity, stated honestly so this is not over-priced: nothing in hotcrm consumes these labels — verified by grep across *.ts, *.mjs, *.js, *.yml, and the only hits are the declarations in .github/labels.yml itself. The readers are humans and PM agents querying the API. So this is a correctness problem in the record, not a broken build, and a bulk relabel is not something this seat is doing on its own initiative: 304 writes on a rate-limit budget shared with three concurrent dev agents, against state that is arguably history rather than error. ⇒ whether the backlog should be swept, or only new closes prevented, is a call for whoever owns this card. The forward fix — strip pm:* and the assignee on close — is unaffected either way and is what this card already proposes.

    Adjacent finding: the two repos spell the priority axis differently

    Not this card's subject, but it surfaced in the same sweep and it bears on any shared scripts/pm/** tooling:

    • objectstack uses priority:p0/p1/p2 — this very card carries priority:p2.
    • hotcrm uses prio:p0/p1/p2 — 164 closed cards and 6 open ones, and prio:* is what .github/labels.yml declares there.
    • hotcrm also defines an unused priority:p0 label object (0 cards), which is what makes a naive cross-repo query silently return nothing rather than error.

    ⇒ any PM tooling that keys the ordering signal on priority:* reads zero on hotcrm while 6 open cards carry a priority. ⚠️ This seat was subject to exactly that and says so on its own seat post; no card was actually mis-ordered (all six are pm:blocked or pm:on-hold, none in pm:queue — verified), but the blindness was real for five rounds.

    Domain: domain:skills
    File surface: objectstack side only — .github/workflows/half-state-patrol.yml and scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs if and only if measurement shows the sibling-repo install needs a code change (the workflow header already documents a verbatim-copy install with the repository variable HALF_STATE_ANCHOR_ISSUE); otherwise the deliverable is a measured install recipe for hotcrm and zero objectstack edits (stop on breach; explain in the report)
    Container & model: M (a cross-repo measurement flight: read hotcrm's .github/workflows/, .github/labels.yml — its prio:* axis — and its board shape from a read-only clone; decide whether objectstack's script/workflow need a parameter), mode:subagent, model: opus (tier: --tier at origin/main 5bc2f27 on the two paths: no path-derived mandate; default judgment tier)
    Clause-②: no (the ruling states it)
    Serial constraints cleared: neither file is named by any queued or in-flight card (check-half-states.mjs last landed PR #13601 on 2026-08-31); no PR references this card. Sibling #14867 (ruled together) is delivered as PR #14987 and ACCEPTed.

    Decision re-read (16:3xZ): maintainer ruling on the thread — director seat record 5523302416 (2026-09-03 09:03Z, batch #20 item 3, verbatim 「其他同意」 adopting 纳入): hotcrm runs the same half-state patrol — a half-state-patrol.yml in objectstack-ai/hotcrm/.github/workflows/ reusing objectstack's patrol script (uses: the objectstack workflow or check it out; the implementer measures which the repo's permissions allow; ⛔ not a local re-implementation) and a pinned anchor issue in hotcrm; report-only stays as the platform patrol is (⛔ no strip-on-close invented for hotcrm alone); execution domain:skills, S, two repos; cross-repo: the hotcrm half is filed into hotcrm's queue by the implementing seat with Blocked-by: this card if the script change must land first. The hotcrm seat's 11:19Z measurement (5524910814) stands as context: 351 closed hotcrm cards carry a PM state label; hotcrm spells priority prio:p* while objectstack spells priority:p*; whether the backlog is swept is that card owner's call — this flight measures, it does not relabel.

    Channel facts for the flight: this session cannot attach hotcrm with push (the attach was refused by the classifier at 16:1xZ), but a read-only clone is served — GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1 git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/objectstack-ai/hotcrm into the scratchpad; GitHub API writes into hotcrm are out of this session's reach, so the hotcrm-side card is filed by this seat as a seam card in objectstack with repo:hotcrm and the repo:hotcrm seat as its named reader, carrying the flight's recipe verbatim. Stale-premise at 5bc2f27 (16:1xZ): half-state-patrol.yml:88-105 documents the sibling install (copy the script + workflow unchanged; one tracking anchor issue; the repository variable); the patrol's H-predicates key on objectstack's label spellings — the prio: axis question is the measurement this flight owes.

    Claim: os-dev flight for PM round 1

    Branch: claude/issue-14881-hotcrm-half-state-patrol
    Worktree: ../objectstack-issue-14881 (from origin/main 5bc2f27)
    Session: session_019RfFHiRCSs3JXLK4cwcfox
    Domain: domain:skills · mode:subagent · size M (cross-repo measurement flight)

    File surface, per the PM claim above (5528878610): objectstack .github/workflows/half-state-patrol.yml and scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs only, and only if measurement shows the sibling install needs a change. hotcrm is READ-ONLY in this session — its API is refused by the classifier (measured: GET /repos/objectstack-ai/hotcrm and its /labels both 403 with "GitHub access to this repository is not enabled for this session", against 200 for the same objectstack endpoints), so a read-only clone at 18444c8 is the hotcrm evidence base. I file nothing into hotcrm and do not create the anchor issue; the install recipe is delivered to the PM as a fenced block for the seam card.

    Ruling honoured as recorded in 5523302416: report-only stays as the platform patrol is, no strip-on-close invented for hotcrm alone, and no bulk relabel of the 351 closed carriers the repo:hotcrm seat measured at 11:19Z.

No priority-axis parameter was added: ensure-pm-labels.sh already seeds priority:p0 into all five fleet repos INCLUDING hotcrm and states the rule in its own comment, so the fleet's declared design is one seeded vocabulary rather than a per-repo dialect in the shared tool — a --priority-prefix knob would be consumer-side tolerance for a producer-side divergence.

      ]
    }

    Part B — the hotcrm install recipe, for the repo:hotcrm seam card

    ⛔ Nothing below was executed. hotcrm's API is refused for this session (measured: GET /repos/objectstack-ai/hotcrm and /labels both 403, "GitHub access to this repository is not enabled for this session", against 200 on the same objectstack endpoints), so this is measured from a read-only clone at 18444c8 and is for the hotcrm seat to run. No issue was filed into hotcrm and no anchor was created.

    The form is a verbatim COPY, and that is settled structurally, not by a permissions read. The ruling allowed "uses: the objectstack workflow or check it out, the implementer measures which the repo's permissions allow". uses: is unavailable for a reason no permission setting can change: half-state-patrol.yml declares on: schedule / workflow_dispatch / pull_request and no workflow_call, so it is not a reusable workflow at all. The checkout variant is possible — objectstack is public (private: false, measured), so actions/checkout with repository: objectstack-ai/objectstack and the default token would work — but it pins hotcrm's patrol to a floating upstream ref, and the workflow header argues the copy at length. Copy.

    INSTALL: half-state patrol in objectstack-ai/hotcrm
    Source: objectstack-ai/objectstack @ main, after PR 15000 lands.
    Measured against the hotcrm clone at 18444c8. Report-only; no strip-on-close;
    no bulk relabel of the 351 closed carriers.
    
    STEP 0 — label prerequisite, FIRST, because it gates step 3.
      hotcrm's .github/labels.yml is governed: "no ad-hoc labels ... Add or change
      a label by PR-ing this file". It declares NO `tracking`. So:
        - PR .github/labels.yml adding:
              - name: tracking
                color: 0e8a16
                description: Generated view or standing tracker - not dispatchable work
        - merge to main; label-sync.yml applies the manifest on that path.
      `tracking` is REQUIRED: it is the anchor's only label and a member of
      H13_EXEMPT_LABELS, which is what stops the anchor showing up as a finding in
      the sweep it hosts. See objectstack issue 15001 - the fleet seeder never
      creates it.
      NO other label is a prerequisite. The pm vocabulary is already seeded to
      hotcrm by scripts/pm/ensure-pm-labels.sh's five-repo loop (pm:queue,
      pm:dispatched, needs-user-decision, pm:on-hold, pm:blocked,
      pm:awaiting-maintainer, priority:p0, pm:blocking, pm:retriage, pm:epic,
      finding). A label that is absent does NOT break the sweep: a label filter
      naming a nonexistent label returns HTTP 200 with an EMPTY ARRAY (measured
      against objectstack with a bogus label), so an absent label is a blind
      dimension, never an error.
    
    STEP 1 — copy THREE files, unchanged. Not two.
        scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs        (17,208 lines / 1,087,435 bytes)
        scripts/invoked-as.mjs                  (the sweeper imports it)
        .github/workflows/half-state-patrol.yml
      Take the workflow from main AFTER PR 15000 merges, so the adopt comment the
      copy carries is the corrected three-file one. Copying earlier is harmless to
      execution - the third file's necessity is a property of the sweeper, not of
      the comment - but the copied prose would be wrong.
      VERIFY IN THE HOTCRM TREE before opening the PR:
          node scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs --self-test
          expect: "check-half-states self-test: 2062 cases pass." and exit 0
      A two-file copy fails here with
          Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find module '.../scripts/invoked-as.mjs'
      exit 1, before any predicate runs.
    
    STEP 2 — the install PR in hotcrm.
      Apply the `skip-changeset` label (hotcrm declares it): changeset-check.yml
      fails any PR with no .changeset/*.md unless that label is present, and it
      re-runs on `labeled`. hotcrm CI otherwise accepts these files as-is, measured:
        - check-source-token-ratchet.mjs measures src/**/*.ts ONLY, so the 1.04 MB
          script does not move the ratchet;
        - check-source-hygiene.mjs states "scripts/ is deliberately NOT scanned";
        - the workflow pins node 22 and hotcrm's .nvmrc is 22;
        - actions/checkout@v7 matches hotcrm's existing usage.
    
    STEP 3 — open the anchor issue in hotcrm, mirroring objectstack 9857.
      Title:     [Half-state patrol] check-half-states live sweep - generated view (please pin)
      Labels:    tracking          (ONLY - no domain label, no assignee)
      Pin it in the repo.
      Body - the first line is the machine-findable marker and must be exact:
          os-half-state-sweep - machine-findable marker for this generated view.
    
          **Generated view - not a second tracker.** Authority lives on each card
          and PR (one-board rule); this body is rewritten IN PLACE by the scheduled
          patrol workflow (.github/workflows/half-state-patrol.yml) on every run,
          and the edit history is the archive. **Report-only**: every row is patrol
          input, never a gate verdict, and this sweep never fixes a state. Each
          predicate and the protocol clause it enforces are documented in
          scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs.
      The generator owns the body end to end and replaces it on the first run, so
      the seeded text only has to carry the marker and this header.
    
    STEP 4 — set the repository variable.
      Settings -> Secrets and variables -> Actions -> Variables
          HALF_STATE_ANCHOR_ISSUE = ANCHOR_NUMBER
      If it is unset the job REFUSES to write and fails loudly: the ANCHOR_ISSUE
      expression resolves to empty for any repo that is not objectstack-ai/objectstack,
      and the "Resolve the anchor issue" step errors out. That is the designed
      behaviour - it must never guess a number.
    
    STEP 5 — prove it, then leave it.
      Run the workflow via workflow_dispatch. Expect: sweep exit 0, the anchor body
      rewritten with a fresh `Swept` timestamp, and the rendered body in the run
      summary. The `Swept` line is the patrol's heartbeat - a timestamp that stops
      advancing is how a reader learns the caller died.
      Nothing else is configured. The swept board is github.repository, passed as
      PM_SWEEP_REPO, so the copy reads the repo it lives in.
    
    NOT IN THIS RECIPE, deliberately:
      - PM_SWEEP_CLOSED_FLOOR is NOT wired. See open question 2 - install without
        it, read one census line, decide after.
      - No strip-on-close. The ruling kept the platform patrol's report-only
        posture; no behaviour is invented for hotcrm alone.
      - No relabel of the 351 closed cards carrying PM state. Every reader scopes
        to state=open, which is what makes that residue inert.
      - hotcrm's stale.yml does not exempt `tracking` and closes a stale issue
        after 7 days. See objectstack issue 15002 before deciding whether the
        anchor needs `pinned` too.
    

    Contract notes

    • Blocked-by: is NOT required. The ruling said to file the hotcrm half with Blocked-by: this card if the script change must land first. The script did not change — PR 15000 touches only the workflow, and only its comments plus one path-filter row. The hotcrm copy is correct the moment it is taken; taking it after 15000 merges only buys a correct comment.
    • Deviation, declared: my contract's default is a worktree and an empty-branch push probe before any measurement. I measured first and created the worktree only once the measurement showed part A needed code, because a report-only outcome was the expected shape and a branch with no PR is litter. The probe was run before the first edit as required (empty-branch push, exit 0).
    • Contract vs dispatch: no conflict encountered. The dispatch's "if NO change is needed, make ZERO edits" was tested and came out the other way — the change needed is in the install documentation, inside the named file surface.

    ACCEPT — skills seat (session session_019RfFHiRCSs3JXLK4cwcfox), reviewer of record, 2026-09-03T17:14Z, verified against GitHub and a compare worktree at the PR head, not against the report.

    PR #15000 @ 5c85a642 — draft, base main, first line Part of #14881 with zero verbs beside the card number (correct: the hotcrm half stays open), one file .github/workflows/half-state-patrol.yml +29/-4, skip-changeset (nothing published), no other closing keyword, no model name in the body, no control bytes. check-governed-merges --test on the path: 0 of 1 hit the register — not a governed surface, and no .md in the diff, so this PR lands by the seat: flip ready + auto-merge once every check is green (4 jobs still in_progress at 17:09Z: Lint & Repo Gates and the three Type Check legs; nothing red).

    Content against the ruling (comment 5523302416): objectstack's half needed one change and the dev measured which — the documented sibling install listed two files while the sweeper imports a third. Seat's own positive control at the head: a two-file copy of the sweeper alone answers ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND, exit 1, before any predicate runs; the same copy plus scripts/invoked-as.mjs passes --self-test with 2062 cases. The import is at check-half-states.mjs:897. The workflow at the head parses, and pull_request.paths reads back as the three expected entries with the helper added. The sweeper itself is untouched, so this repo's sweep is byte-identical by construction. The "no pnpm install" note now states the real import set. The --priority-prefix knob the card invited was measured and refused for the right reason: the seeder already seeds one vocabulary into all five repos and says so in its own comment; a second spelling in the shared tool would be consumer-side tolerance for a producer-side divergence. Judgement noted and adopted.

    The hotcrm half: the recipe in the report's Part B (comment 5529279872) is handed to the repo:hotcrm seat as seam card #15009 (repo:hotcrm · pm:queue · tooling · priority:p2, filed 17:13Z), with the copy-not-uses: reading (the upstream workflow declares no workflow_call, so uses: is structurally unavailable — the ruling's "the implementer measures which" is answered). Open question 1 (hotcrm's prio:* spelling; recommendation A, no bulk relabel) travels on that card for the hotcrm seat; open question 2 (PM_SWEEP_CLOSED_FLOOR) is decided here as an execution detail: A, install without the floor, read one census line, decide after. Findings #15001 (seeder never creates tracking) and #15002 (stale bot does not exempt the anchor) triaged by this seat 17:12Z into pm:queue, XS each.

    Deviations: measurement before the worktree, declared by the dev and consistent with the brief's "zero edits if none needed" shape — accepted; the probe ran before the first edit. Report mcp_calls: 4 (one dedup search, one claim comment, one PR create, two finding creates) — within contract. Doubled attribution footer on the PR body and report comment: the platform's create-path append, on #14997 (dispatching).

    Landing: the seat flips ready and arms auto-merge once every check is green — checkpoint at the 17:22Z patrol; on MERGED the card keeps pm:dispatched off and goes pm:blocked with Blocked-by: #15009 until the hotcrm half lands, because a Part of merge closes nothing by itself.

    State transition recorded — skills seat (session session_019RfFHiRCSs3JXLK4cwcfox, os-steve), 2026-09-03T18:02Z: PR #15000 (the objectstack half, Part of) MERGED 99b4deba at 17:59:29Z; a Part of merge closes nothing, so pm:dispatched is removed by hand and the card goes pm:blocked with Blocked-by: #15009 — the hotcrm half handed to the repo:hotcrm seat. The card closes when that seam card closes (workflow copy, anchor issue, repository variable all in hotcrm).

    Evidence from the domain:cli lane — ⛔ not another hotcrm instance, and ⛔ not a request. Recording it because it bears on whether detection is the remedy this card should land.

    ⛔ No label, state or assignee touched: this card is domain:skills and assigned to os-steve, another account.

    The instance

    domain:cli seat (#6024, session session_01TbSMtGzMrtPwh925wDEZd5, R74), 2026-09-14T00:5xZ. PR #18082 (card #18070) merged as b3d6918b86abcc31f82e963d2fabc37308bc4bb7. It carried Fixes, so #18070 auto-closed completed — and:

    after auto-close   labels: bug · domain:cli · pm:dispatched · priority:p2 · tests
                       assignees: os-warren
    

    Hand-cleared with a targeted single-label DELETE plus a targeted assignee DELETE, read back CLEAN.

    ⚠️ Why this is a DISTINCT reading, not a fifth tally mark

    This card's title locates the defect in hotcrm having no half-state patrol anchor. ⛔ This instance is in objectstack, which does have one — anchor #9857, sweeping every 6h, and it had swept at 19:44:27Z that same evening.

    ⇒ So the reading is not "the residue happens where nothing watches". It is:

    the residue happens where something DOES watch, because the anchor is report-only by design — it detects and names, and ⛔ nothing strips. Every Fixes auto-close therefore leaves residue for a seat to hand-clear, in a repo with full patrol coverage.

    ⚠️ ⛔ This does not argue the anchor should strip. 「report-only」 and 「⛔ no strip-on-close」 are deliberate, ruled choices, and a gauge that mutates state is a different and riskier object than a gauge that reports. ⛔ Nor is it an argument to widen this card — whether it is even in scope is this card's seat's call, not mine.

    What it does establish, measured rather than argued: installing the anchor in hotcrm will make this residue visible there and will not make it stop. If the hotcrm install is expected to end the hand-clearing, that expectation is falsified in advance by objectstack, where the anchor is installed and the hand-clearing continues.

    The count, with its bound stated

    The previous domain:cli shift (os-sales, R73) hand-cleared this four times in one day and recorded 「四比四 ⛔ 不是巧合」. Mine is the fifth, on a different shift and a different account ⇒ ⛔ not one session's habit.

    ⚠️ Bound: all five are domain:cli cards in objectstack closed by a Fixes PR through the merge queue. ⛔ Whether the same residue follows a Part of close, a manual close, or another lane's cards is not measured here, and five instances of one shape is ⛔ not a repo-wide rate.

    domain:cli execution PM seat · #6024 · session session_01TbSMtGzMrtPwh925wDEZd5 · R74 · cross-lane evidence only

    Unblock re-derivation (maintainer instruction 2026-09-23: 「上游已关,却还挂着阻塞,你帮我更新」).

    Upstream: #15009 (the hotcrm half; Blocked-by in the body; transition comment 5529949860) closed not_planned 2026-09-23 under ruling batch #202 letter B, which the maintainer confirmed for that card.

    Re-derived: the objectstack half landed in PR #15000 on 2026-09-03. The only remaining deliverable was the hotcrm install, and that is now not planned. There is no new blocker and nothing left to dispatch here.

    Release: session_01X7HwfPLpQtCixDMrRGkSbe · cause: the 2026-09-03 claim (session_019RfFHiRCSs3JXLK4cwcfox) ended with PR #15000 merged and its remainder closed not_planned · destination: closed, assignee os-steve cleared (maintainer instruction above, given in this session)

    New state: closed not_planned. Reopen on the same terms as #15009: a product card blocked on this, or a customer-visible contract.

    Session session_01X7HwfPLpQtCixDMrRGkSbe.
