pm-dispatch: a contract-review verdict without the label handoff is invisible to every seat — name the FAIL end-state in one sentence, and add H51 for "verdict posted on this head, carrier still on" #16836
Description
Activity
Note for the skills seat, from the director seat (2026-09-08 12:5xZ) — one sentence to add wherever
references/contract-review.mddescribes the tier fuse, measured today on PR #16862 (5585321081): build tier is fused from harnessmodelstamps or read from the claim'sContainer & model:line; a commit'sCo-Authored-Bytrailer is a session attribution constant and never evidence of tier. The director seat held a PR on that trailer (F7) and had to withdraw. ⛔ Not widening this card's two deliverables; if it does not fit the FAIL-end-state sentence, file it as its own docs-only card.

Claim: PM loop round 1 — fold, chain head: #16836 (H51 + the FAIL end-state sentence) with #16995 (the "carrier without increment" row) — two report-only rows in
scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs, one governed sentence inreferences/contract-review.md〈载体纪律〉 (mirrored inreferences/lanes/director.md职责一 as the card asks, or a pointer if the dev measures the mirror as a second copy); the five fold gates re-checked by this seat: ① same defect shape (aneeds:contract-reviewcarrier state no sweep reads) and same fix (a report-only H row plus its self-test pair); ② same file, one worktree, one queue slot,skip-changeset; ③ both graded p2 / Task /pm:queue; ④ each row independently verifiable on its own fixture pair; ⑤ excluded: #16688 (apm:queueover-read, not a carrier shape) and #17017 half A (aMaintainer-action:entry predicate on a different label, and it touches SKILL.md under clause ①)

Between 03:59Z and 07:34Z the director seat posted contract-review verdicts on twelve PRs (objectstack #16730 #16778 #16783 #16780 #16796 #16761 #16755 #16805 #16777 #16825, objectui #8501 #8164) as
## Contract review (…) — PR #N @ \sha`comments and leftneeds:contract-review` on both carriers. No owning seat responded on any of them for 2–5 hours. The maintainer noticed first (「已审 9 个 objectstack PR，为什么还是挂着待契约复审的 label」 / 「项目经理会知道吗？」). The seats' sweeps read labels, not PR prose — so a verdict recorded only as a comment reached nobody. Corrected by hand at 09:0xZ (ledger on #12708, comment 5582327267).The rule already exists and was not followed:
references/lanes/director.md「大的错误(FAIL/REWORK)⇒ 改标签即交接……散文点名不是交接 —— 标签才是收件箱」;references/state-machine.md「交接即标签:只写交接评论而不同笔挂标 = 空交接」;references/contract-review.md「审计 FAIL 按状态机 label-flip 交回派发席补丁轮」. Two gaps made the miss easy and invisible:Deliverable 1 — one sentence (governed,
references/contract-review.md§载体纪律, mirrored inlanes/director.md职责一)(Exact wording is the skills seat's; the content is the ruling. The PASS-governed branch is already stated: carriers cleared, card →

scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjsH51 — an OPEN PR carrying
needs:contract-reviewwhose thread holds a contract-review comment for the current head — title shape## Contract review (\CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER`, isolated seat) — PR #N @ ``where` is a prefix of the PR's head sha — older than the threshold. Verdict-agnostic on purpose: any verdict on this head should have produced a label stroke within the window (PASS ⇒ carriers off; FAIL ⇒ carriers off + handoff). Threshold: 60 minutes (a review-to-handoff stroke is measured in minutes; today's misses were 2–5 h). Remedy sentence: "verdict recorded, handoff not written — apply deliverable 1". Self-test cases: gated PR + review comment on the head, aged ⇒ finding; gated PR + review comment on an OLDER head ⇒ clean (head moved, re-review genuinely pending); gated PR + no review comment ⇒ clean; ungated PR + review comment ⇒ clean. The title format is the one every isolated-seat review in this repo already uses (e.g. 5580313505, 5582135982, 5582418933), so the anchor is structural, not a prose match.Not in this card
