gates / gates (push) Failing after 17s
R-87 put back in the register; closed_register_gate.py is the 12th gate (R-405, R-406)
Records and process only. No machine contacted. No product code, no version bump,
no build, no deploy.

R-87 was moved into CLOSED-ITEMS.md by the 2026-08-22 compression sweep ef6ac6f while
its own state cell read "READY - RE-RANKED UP 2026-08-03 (R-86 closed)". R-378 records
that sweep moving six still-open rows and restoring them in the same session; this was
a seventh it missed. Nine days in the wrong file, with the register's ranking paragraph
ranking it fourth and pointing at nothing. Restored verbatim from ef6ac6f^, beside R-95
where it sat before.

The predicate is the LEADING VERDICT of the state cell, which is R-378's lesson and
decides the answer here. Measured on the file as pushed: an open word anywhere in the
state cell convicts 3 of 151 rows, two of them genuinely closed (R-224 and R-260 carry
"open"/"OPEN" inside long prose verdicts); the leading verdict convicts exactly 1; the
whole row convicts 144.

closed_register_gate.py, two rules: no open state word leading a CLOSED-ITEMS.md row's
verdict, and no R- id with a row in both registers. Red-proofed both, and negative-
controlled against the pushed pre-fix files where it convicts R-87 by name, rc=1;
restoring the planted rows leaves the file byte-identical. Registered as the 12th gate
in repo_gates.py, --fast, after it was green. Four residual holes in its docstring.

R-398 was also in both registers - a deliberate cross-reference stub. Now prose beneath
the table rather than a table row, because a row in both files is what rule 2 convicts on.

R-406 filed: two unrelated findings in OPEN-ITEMS.md both numbered R-133. The only such
collision in either register. Deliberately NOT gated - a within-register duplicate rule
would fail on a pre-existing row, and a registered-but-failing gate refuses every push.

golden-currency is RED at this commit and was already red at dddcc80 - controller
v0.230.0 released, newest golden 0.229.0. Pre-existing, not this session's debt.

Ceiling R-404 -> R-406.

"""repo_gates.py — THE entry point for this repo's gates. Run from the repo root:
python3 scripts/repo_gates.py # every gate
python3 scripts/repo_gates.py --fast # only gates that touch no network and no container
# runtime (what .githooks/pre-push runs)
Gates, in order (all must pass; **non-zero exit on any failure**):
1. site website HTML: BOM, emoji, nav/footer, analytics, CDN, tokens, cache-busting
2. hostinstall felhom-host-install.sh's five drill-swept invariants (+ R-94's absent-version)
3. hub-confirm no native confirm()/prompt() in hub templates
4. manifest-bearer no bearer-shaped literal anywhere in manifests/
5. reuse-refs every path cited by this repo's REUSE.md still resolves
6. instructions CLAUDE.md length/versions/TEMPORARY, rule-file scoping, workspace-copy identity
7. golden-currency a released controller has a golden carrying it (R-242)
8. wire-contract every emitted field is decodable by its receiver (G-1)
9. hub-copy the hub's customer-facing words, against the retired-name list (R-324)
10. due-checks a dated check in OPEN-ITEMS.md that has come due (R-341)
11. observations a REPORT.md observation with no register row behind it (R-389)
WHY 11 IS HERE (2026-08-24, R-389). On 2026-08-23 a session measured on live hardware that only the
FIRST broken app per hour reaches the operator — the notification cooldown keys on the event type,
not on the app. It was real, reproducible, and written under `## Observations` in `REPORT.md`. It was
written NOWHERE ELSE. `REPORT.md` is overwritten every session by this project's own convention, so
the finding had a lifetime of exactly one session and had to be re-derived the next day. That is
gate 10's shape one surface over — a commitment recorded in prose that nothing enforces — and the
instruction invited it: PROMPT-TEMPLATE.md §15 asked for observations "documented, not acted on", and
"documented" was satisfied by the paragraph. The template was corrected in the same session; **this
gate is the mechanism that correction points at.** It REFUSES rather than warns, for gate 10's
reason. It PASSES quietly when there is no observations section, deliberately — a gate that taxes
every push is one that gets disabled within a week. `--fast` (stdlib file reads only).
WHY 10 IS HERE (2026-08-18, R-341). R-341 booked two dated measurements — +24 h and +7 d —
as a sentence inside a register row. Nothing read those dates, and nothing would have said a word
when they passed; the row would simply have gone quiet and stayed that way. That is the same shape
as R-242 (a rule filed without a mechanism, which recurred the next day) and as the R-29 census
finding below, where the checks nobody was told to run were the ones that had been failing for
weeks. The dates now live in a machine-readable block INSIDE OPEN-ITEMS.md — inside, so there is no
sidecar to drift from the register — and this gate refuses the push once one comes due. It REFUSES
rather than warns, deliberately: a warning is the thing that gets scrolled past, and this repo has
the census to prove it. It is `--fast` (stdlib file read, no network) so it runs in both the
pre-push hook and CI. **It is not a scheduler and its docstring says so** — it fires on the next
push after a date passes, not on the date.
WHY 7 IS HERE (2026-08-08, R-242). R-242 was filed as a rule with no mechanism — *a controller
release is not finished until a golden carries it* — and RECURRED THE NEXT DAY: v0.206.0 shipped
while the vouched golden still carried 0.205.0, so a machine installed that morning would have got
neither of the R-241 fixes. Two occurrences in two days, the first (R-239) invisible until a walk
measured it from the customer's side. It is `--fast` because both the pre-push hook and CI run only
`--fast`; a non-fast gate would run in neither, which is the R-29 failure this runner ended. That
constraint is why it checks the BAKE and not the vouch — the full reasoning is in its docstring.
WHY 6 IS HERE AND WAS NOT (2026-08-06, R-229 deferred leg). instructions_gate.py LIVES in this
repo's scripts/ and was registered in the controller and agent runners on the day it was written —
but not in this one, because this repo's own CLAUDE.md was still 27 lines over the ceiling and a
registered-but-failing gate refuses every push through .githooks/pre-push. The file was trimmed
(227 -> 115 effective lines, core + .claude/rules/) and the gate registered in the same session.
A check that does not run in the place it applies is the exact failure the R-29 gate census found.
WHY THIS FILE EXISTS (2026-08-02, closing R-29 leg (a) and half of leg (b)).
A census of all thirteen gate scripts across the four felhom repos found one clean correlation:
**every check a CLAUDE.md tells a person to run was passing, and two of the four nobody is told
to run were failing** — one since 14 July. Neither failure was harmful in effect, which was
checked line by line; nothing would have said so if they had been. The fix is not more gates, it
is one place to run them from. `app-catalog-felhom.eu/scripts/catalog_gates.py` is the canonical
shape (R-161) and this copies it deliberately rather than inventing a second one.
`site_gates.py` is a GATE — eight assertions in one file — and is NOT the model for this file. A
runner that invokes separate gates is the shape that survives; copying site_gates would just add
a ninth monolith.
FAIL-CLOSED. A gate script that is missing is a FAILURE, never a skip, and the exact path tried
is printed. A runner that quietly drops a gate is the inert-seam failure this project has shipped
four times.
EXIT CODES. Each gate returns 0 clean / 1 convicted / 2 inconclusive. This runner exits non-zero
if any gate is non-zero, and reports 2 distinctly as INCONCLUSIVE — an undetermined result is
never a pass, but it is not a conviction either, and the operator needs to know which they have.
