[finding] two agent-facing lines instruct dispatch-gates.mjs --tier PATHS with no --repo — once PR #18409 lands, a not-yet-written path answers exit 3 from that spelling (SKILL.md claim-comment tier line, checklist-test SKILL.md)

Filed by the domain:skills seat (留守, the dispatching session of PR #18409), session_01Bz6hxDBqK62NP2W1LATvnt, from the #18383 dev's out_of_scope_findings (report 5695841345). ⛔ Not graded here (this session is closed as a seat; the successor grades). ⛔ No dedupe run — dedupe words below.

Reading

PR #18409 (#18383) makes scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs refuse a path that is absent from the tree when no --repo asserts whose tree it is: exit 3 (NOT MEASURED) before any derivation, --tier included — the dev's deliberate, stated call, because the wrong-repo refusal already ends a --tier run over another repo's slug. Consequence: --tier PATH where PATH is not yet written now exits 3 until --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack is added.

Two agent-facing prose lines instruct exactly the spelling that can now refuse, both read on origin/main 282d0ebf at 2026-09-16T10:19Z:

.claude/skills/pm-dispatch/SKILL.md — the claim-comment tier line: 「Container & model 行的档位引当次 node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --tier PATHS 输出,⛔ 不凭记忆。」 (:478 at this reading).
.claude/skills/checklist-test/SKILL.md — its --tier instruction (:98 at this reading).

A PM claiming a card whose file surface is not written yet (a new reference file, a new script) follows those lines, gets exit 3 and no tier from the prescribed spelling. Class (a): an instruction that fails when copied verbatim, reproducible once PR #18409 lands (node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --tier packages/this-repo-has-no-such-package/src/index.ts ⇒ exit 3; with --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack ⇒ exit 0 — both measured by the seat at ab086418).

What is asked (⛔ implementation not prescribed)

One flag added to each line — --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack — in place (SKILL.md is at its 812 / 812 ceiling, ≤120 B per line; checklist-test/SKILL.md 234 / 238). Rules layer for SKILL.md ⇒ draft, four-piece, an authorized APPROVED; the checklist-test line rides the same PR if the seat folds them, or its own. Blocked-by: PR #18409 landing (the refusal is not on main until then).

Triage (lane self-triage; the triage seat #6015 is VACANT) — skills seat, session_01HPfcjvF23QBoBj7P47DDxs, 2026-09-16T10:58Z. Reproduced on origin/main 55fd5ee4 (PR #18409 MERGED 10:48Z, so the refusal is on main): node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --tier packages/this-repo-has-no-such-package/src/index.ts → exit 3 (NOT MEASURED); the same with --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack → exit 0. The two instruction lines still carry the bare spelling: .claude/skills/pm-dispatch/SKILL.md :478 「Container & model 行的档位引当次 node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --tier <paths> 输出,⛔ 不凭记忆。」 and .claude/skills/checklist-test/SKILL.md :98. Class (a): an instruction that fails when copied verbatim for a not-yet-written path. Graded: p3 · Task · pm:queue · domain:skills (the governed face is this lane's; a re-key, not a contract). Budget: SKILL.md 812 / 812 with MAX_LINE_BYTES 120 per changed line — the --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack flag (+34 B) must fit :478 in place or the line is re-keyed shorter; checklist-test/SKILL.md 234 / 238. Rules layer (.claude/skills/**) ⇒ draft, four-piece, an authorized APPROVED. Blocked-by cleared: PR #18409 is on origin/main. Serial: BEHIND PR #18436 (#18394, awaiting approval) on SKILL.md — hard serial, dispatch after it is MERGED; fold-or-serial against #18394 answered SERIAL (gate ① fails — a flag re-key vs the seat-number protocol). Dedup over this lane's open set by --tier / --repo (control dispatch-gates → 3 hits): #18383 (CLOSED, the refusal itself) — no duplicate. Same stroke: finding → pm:queue, priority:p3, type Task.

Worktree: objectstack-issue-18425
Domain: domain:skills
File surface: .claude/skills/pm-dispatch/SKILL.md — the claim-comment tier line only (currently 「- Container & model 行的档位引当次 node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --tier <paths> 输出,⛔ 不凭记忆。」, 120 B, file 812 / 812) and .claude/skills/checklist-test/SKILL.md — its --tier instruction line only (「node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --tier <paths> 的输出、⛔ 不凭记忆(floor」, 88 B, file 234 / 238). Both lines gain --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack in place; each changed line ≤ 120 B, SKILL.md pays by deletion inside the line. ⛔ No other line of either file.
Container & model: S (two-line flag re-key; the craft is fitting +34 B into a 120 B line without losing 「引当次输出」 or 「⛔ 不凭记忆」), mode:subagent, model: claude-fable-5-1 — MANDATORY from node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack --tier .claude/skills/pm-dispatch/SKILL.md .claude/skills/checklist-test/SKILL.md at 2026-09-16T12:44Z on origin/main e915c190: 「Model tier — MANDATORY: claude-fable-5-1 … the PM dispatch skill MAIN file is the lane's own operating protocol」; the one-line-class exit is NOT taken — re-keying a protocol line shorter is wording judgment on the operating file, not a mechanical edit. Rules layer (.claude/skills/**) ⇒ draft PR, four-piece, an authorized APPROVED, then ruling C by the seat.
Clause-②: no
Thread-read: 5696364074
Ruling-ref: none — no maintainer ruling on this card; triage 5696364074 (lane self-triage, p3 Task) is the spec of WHAT: one flag on each of the two lines, in place.
Serial constraints cleared: SKILL.md — the hard-serial predecessor named in triage, PR #18436 (#18394), MERGED as 62ab658a at 12:37:44Z and is on origin/main; the other same-day SKILL.md landing, PR #18457 (#18439), merged 12:36:37Z. At 2026-09-16T12:44Z no open PR on the repository touches .claude/skills/pm-dispatch/SKILL.md or .claude/skills/checklist-test/SKILL.md (files of all 10 open PRs read; PR #18447 touches hooks only) and no in-flight claim on this lane names either file (the #18434 decision's implementation PR is not yet dispatched and would touch references/contract-review.md + SKILL.md BEHIND this card). Premise re-read on origin/main e915c190: SKILL.md :477 and checklist-test/SKILL.md :98 still carry the bare --tier <paths> spelling; node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --tier packages/this-repo-has-no-such-package/src/index.ts ⇒ exit 3, with --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack ⇒ exit 0 (both measured on b6fe311a at 2026-09-16T12:44Z). Ratchet ceilings read from check-skill-line-ratchet.mjs: pm-dispatch SKILL.md 812, checklist-test SKILL.md 238, MAX_LINE_BYTES 120. No sibling card's pin asserts either line's text.

ACCEPT — skills seat, session_01HPfcjvF23QBoBj7P47DDxs, 2026-09-16T13:04Z. Report 5697874996 · PR #18463 (draft, head 7a7f3c22, base main e915c190, one commit, first line Fixes #18425, the only closing keyword).

Checklist, verified against GitHub and the tree — not against the report's narrative:

Shape / scope: draft ✓ · base main ✓ · changed files = .claude/skills/pm-dispatch/SKILL.md (+1 / −1, the tier line only) and .claude/skills/checklist-test/SKILL.md (+2 / −2, the same bullet's :98–:99 re-wrapped) — exactly the claimed surface, no other line ✓ · skip-changeset + size/xs read back; AGENTS.md's own arm quoted ✓ · ## 维护者速读(草稿) and ## Acceptance notes present ✓.
The lines, measured by the seat on origin/<branch> at 7a7f3c22: SKILL.md :477 after = 「- 引当次 node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack --tier <paths> 输出⛔ 不凭记忆」 = 120 B (gate 120; before 120 B); checklist-test :98 = 100 B, :99 = 113 B; files 812 / 812 and 234 / 238 — no line added ✓. No #NNNN in any added line ✓. The three load-bearing pieces named in the dispatch (exact command with --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack --tier <paths>, 「引当次 … 输出」, 「⛔ 不凭记忆」) are all present.
The judgment call, accepted with reasons: the dispatch's own suggested wording measured 130 B and the shortest wording that keeps 「档位」 measures 125 B — the dev's arithmetic reproduces (85 + 15 + 16 + 4 = 120 B, zero slack). Dropping the subject 「Container & model 行的档位」 is the only way to keep the exact command inside the gate without touching another line, which the dispatch forbade. The binding survives elsewhere: the line sits inside the 认领评论 rule block whose rows each govern one claim-comment key, and the template at :808 (untouched) still spells model: <档位,引当次 --tier 输出>. The ⛔ glyph directly after 「输出」 with no comma is a typographic first on this file; the grep-able phrase 「⛔ 不凭记忆」 is intact. Accepted as the seat's ruling for the PR; the alternative (restore the subject by paying one line elsewhere in SKILL.md) is handed to the approver in the 速读终稿 as the one open choice.
A7 re-run by the seat from a detached worktree at 7a7f3c22, command extracted from :477's backticks by sed and the placeholder replaced with an absent path: exit 0; the bare spelling from origin/main: exit 3 (control) — the instruction now works when copied verbatim, which is the whole card.
Gates re-run by the seat at 7a7f3c22: check-skill-line-ratchet 0 · check-skill-id-lint 0 · check-skill-frame-sync (--self-test then the run) 0 · check-governed-prose 0 · check-clause2-carriers.mjs --pair 18463 0. Seat's self-correction, recorded: a first frame-sync run exited 1 because the seat invoked it under scripts/pm/ instead of scripts/ — a wrong path on the seat's side, reproduced identically on origin/main, not a reading about the PR. The dev's 17-command --commands / --ran reconciliation (0 UNRUN) is a report reading. CI on 7a7f3c22 at review time: 13 success / 4 in_progress (Lint & Repo Gates, three Type Check rows) / rest skipped — a convergence reading for the landing window.
Writes: mcp_calls 0 · api_writes 3 REST (draft PR, one label, the report) + 2 pushes — within budget; no assignee write, no second claim, nothing flipped, armed or requested. Worktree left in place at the seat's request (conflict with os-dev.md rule 4 declared, not silently chosen) — the seat will remove it after landing.
Out-of-scope findings: three noted, not filed — platform-readings.md :391 names the bare flag as a mechanism reference (not a copyable command; bearer = the next skills-seat PR on that file); the other --tier mentions confirmed non-commands; the :477 line now has zero byte slack (bearer = this seat on the next SKILL.md ratchet card). None is in the three classes; nothing to file.

Path face (.claude/skills/**): GOVERNED, rules layer ⇒ terminal four-piece, ⛔ not landed by any seat: ① this comment is the review of record · ② needs-user-decision on PR #18463 + the seat's 速读终稿 as a PR comment · ③ review requested from os-zhuang and hotlong · ④ listed under awaiting a human merge in the round report. After an authorized APPROVED: ruling C — this seat lands it (record on the current head, --pair 0, all checks green or rostered skips, ready via the CCR route, auto-merge SQUASH). Card stays pm:dispatched + assignee until Fixes closes it at MERGED. Hot-file chain on SKILL.md: the #18434 decision's implementation PR queues BEHIND this one.
