fix(pargates): a gate's SKIPPED verdict stops depending on where the checkout lives - #223
Merged
Merged
Conversation
…checkout lives
test/pargates.py classified a gate as skipped with `"SKIP" in out[:400]` — a fixed byte
window over the transcript. Every gate opens with a banner naming its own absolute paths
(`<name>: BIN=<abs> ROOT=<abs>`), so the window's CONTENTS are a function of the
checkout's pathname, and every offset after the banner moves with it.
Measured on test/w3fixlegendcheck.sh, whose output is byte-identical after line 1:
root=/Users/…/worktrees/adoring-khorana-bddb57 (87 chars) banner 217 B
root=/tmp/rwshort (12 chars) banner 67 B
a 150 B shift from a 75-char rename, ~2 B per character because the root is spelled
twice. The same commit, the same binary and byte-identical gate output then reported
`skip=2` from a 137-char checkout and `skip=3` from a 38-char one, differing only in how
one honest arm-level tie SKIP fell relative to byte 400. `skip=` is read before every
push; a count that moves with the pathname is not evidence.
The exposure is not one gate's, and the dangerous direction is the other one. Over all
628 transcripts of a full run, 28 gates print their skip marker downstream of at least
one absolute-root mention. The nearest is a REAL standing skip: editchecknotecheck
declares its skip at byte 145, and 255 more characters of checkout path (a 342-char root,
ordinary for a nested worktree or a CI runner) push that declaration out of the window,
at which point a gate that proved nothing is reported as a PASS. Which gates are in range
is a property of the MACHINE, not of the commit, so the answer is not a wider window.
THE RULE, now written down instead of measured in bytes: a gate that proves nothing says
so BEFORE it claims anything. The FIRST verdict marker decides — a SKIP ahead of every
PASS and FAIL is a whole-gate skip; a SKIP that follows one is an arm-level skip inside a
gate that did prove something, and the gate is a pass. That is what this tree already did
on purpose (namingcalibrationcheck runs its live arm first "so that its SKIP banner lands
inside the first bytes of output"; argvdiffcheck's skip is its opening line), now free of
the offsets. And markers, not substrings: five gates merely NARRATE the word SKIPPED and
prove plenty.
Behaviour-preserving where it was already right: over the same 628 transcripts the new
rule and the old one disagree on ZERO gates, and a full suite run reports the same
`skip=3` with the same three gates.
The gate before the fix: test/skipclassifycheck.sh runs the REAL pargates.py (never a
reimplementation) over probe corpora at two roots ~130 chars apart, after a presence
guard proves the same probe's skip row really does land on opposite sides of the old
boundary — without that contrast the arm would pass on a classifier that never read the
output. It reds on the old classifier at (A), (B), (C) and (G). The gate side of the same
contract is test/gateexitcheck.sh arm (D).
Also: the new gate is pinned in binoverridecheck's EXEMPT list (it binds no ripwire
binary, like pargatescheck), listed in test/regression.sh, and the published gate count
is regenerated by docs/gatecount_build.py (614 → 615).

ripwirepubliccheck arm 2 forbids a machine-specific absolute path in a tracked file, and the measurement block in test/skipclassifycheck.sh's header spelled one. The two roots it reports are identified by their LENGTH, which is the only property the measurement uses. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…classifier no longer uses
Explaining a mechanism in a comment makes the comment part of it. Three gates carried
prose that told the next reader to reason in offsets, and all of it is now false:
formatgatecheck.sh (:15, :84) "pargates.py counts an rc=0 run whose first 400 chars
contain SKIP as a SKIP"
headbinstagecheck.sh (:58) "pargates counts a SKIP printed after the first 400
bytes as a PASS"
namingcalibrationcheck.sh (:22, :73)
"its SKIP banner lands inside the first bytes of
output, which is where test/pargates.py looks"
Each now states the rule that replaced it — the first verdict marker decides — and names
classify_skipped() so there is one place to read it. Two of them are load-bearing beyond
documentation and the rewrite keeps that: namingcalibrationcheck's arm ORDER still
matters, because its skip banner has to precede the instrument arm's pass rows, and
headbinstagecheck's `|| skip` hole is still a hole, because a skip printed after the gate
has already claimed a verdict is arm-level and the gate still reads as a pass.
Also the CHANGELOG entry for the classifier fix, under Unreleased.
No behaviour change: comments and one CHANGELOG section.
Gates: deckcheck ALL PASS (every --flag in the new prose is real), gatecount_build
--check and limits_build --check both clean.

…cript as one line Two findings from the CodeRabbit review of #223, both real, both verified against the code before acting. 1. A FAIL ROW BELOW LINE 1 WAS INVISIBLE TO THE RULE. classify_skipped() says the first verdict decides and counts FAIL as a verdict, but it matched _MARKER_RE — which had no re.M — against a WHOLE transcript. Without that flag `^` binds only to the start of the string, so `^\s*FAIL\b` and `^FAILURES ABOVE` are dead below line 1 and the only alternative that still fires is the unanchored "SOME CHECKS FAILED". A gate that printed a FAIL row, then a SKIP row, and exited 0 therefore left `claims` empty and was classified as having PROVED NOTHING — a gate that had claimed a verdict before it skipped. Now compiled with re.M, which is a no-op for the other caller: failure_lines() searches one line at a time, and a single line has no newline for `^` to find. Red first: test/skipclassifycheck.sh arm (D2), a probe that prints a bare FAIL row then a SKIP row and exits 0. It deliberately does NOT print "SOME CHECKS FAILED" — that is the one unanchored alternative, and a probe carrying it would be matched by accident and the arm would pass while testing nothing. Against the unfixed code: FAIL (D2) a gate whose first verdict is a FAIL row was classified 'skip' and green after. 2. "EVERY GATE OPENS WITH A BANNER" WAS AN OVERCLAIM, and the number under it was measured by a different recipe than the claim it supported: 506 came from grepping gate SOURCES for `BIN=$BIN`, while the claim is about what a transcript CONTAINS. Measured properly, over the 628 transcripts captured from one full run: 515 carry the crawl root in their FIRST line (524 anywhere). All three sites now state that figure with its recipe — CHANGELOG.md, the classifier comment, and the gate header. The replay is unchanged by the re.M fix: over the same 628 transcripts the new rule and the old one still disagree on ZERO gates, and the skip set is still argvdiffcheck, editchecknotecheck, g1freshcheck. Gates: skipclassifycheck ALL PASS (13 arms), deckcheck ALL PASS. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…sting A gate whose subject IS path length must not take its path lengths from the runner. Both probe roots were built under `mktemp -d`, so their lengths were whatever $TMPDIR happened to be: measured, a Linux runner would have given a 22-character short root and a 153-char long one, a macOS runner 52 and 183. All four sit on the correct sides of the old boundary today, and all four were one $TMPDIR change away from not doing so — the arm would then have reported a broken fixture on one runner and not another, which is the same where-it-runs failure this gate exists to talk about. Both roots are now built under a base of the gate's own making (`/tmp/rwskipXXXXXX`, ~17 characters everywhere this builds), and the long one is padded to a computed total of 200 characters. The slope is measured and stated in the fixture: the probe's skip row starts at 181 + 2*len(root) bytes, because the root is spelled twice in the banner, so the old 400 B boundary sits at a 110-character root. The two roots now land at 219 B and 581 B — 181 B of margin either side — and arm (0)'s red now names both root lengths and the boundary it computes, so a future fixture change says what to move. Verified from two checkouts of the same commit, 39 characters and 87: byte-identical arm output, the same 219 B / 581 B offsets, ALL PASS (13 arms) both ways. That is the property: before this commit those numbers moved with the checkout. Also the CHANGELOG entry gains the re.M finding, which is the same failure family one level down — including why arm (D2) omits the one unanchored alternative, since a probe carrying it would be matched by accident and the arm would assert nothing. Gates: skipclassifycheck ALL PASS from both a 39-char and an 87-char checkout; deckcheck ALL PASS. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…y as their method CHANGELOG's rule is that every published number names its corpus and method, and this change publishes four whose method was, until now, a replay harness living in a session scratch directory — a citation with a half-life. CLAUDE.md makes docs/EVALS.md the answer to "how is any published number measured", and this is a one-time measurement no gate can hold: a gate cannot run the full suite to check a claim about the full suite. The section pins the four figures with the recipe that produced each — the 515 of 628 transcripts whose first line names the crawl root, the zero disagreements between the old rule and the new over that corpus, which gates a rename can actually move and in which direction, and the two-checkout end-to-end run — plus the population statement (628 is the suite at c1915d2, deliberately BEFORE this change's own gate, since the question is whether the rule moves a verdict on the suite that already existed). It also carries the rebuild recipe for both halves, so the claim is reproducible by someone who has never seen the scratch directory: the four-line transcript dump to insert after the classification line, and the replay's algorithm — lift the four shipped symbols with `ast` rather than reimplementing them, classify under both rules, exit non-zero on any disagreement. Neither the corpus (3.1 MB) nor the script is committed; a script without its corpus is half a reproduction, and the recipe is what makes it whole. The reachability reasoning is in the section rather than only in the commit log, because the first version of that measurement sampled only nearby-length paths, reported zero moves under BOTH rules, and would have read as "the old rule was fine" inside the evidence for replacing it. Nothing is reachable by shortening on this machine — the nearest candidate needs 148 characters removed from an 87-character root — so depth is the only reachable direction, and the reachable case needs +255. A zero that names the range it covered is evidence; a zero that does not is unfalsifiable. Gates: deckcheck ALL PASS (every --flag in the new prose is a real one).

…the rule discloses what it does not hold Review of #223 at 95d8369 raised four blocking findings, all about published claims rather than code. This answers all four and takes five of the six nits. F1 — THE SYMPTOM DID NOT REPRODUCE, AND THE REASON IS THE TREE. The reviewer could not reproduce "skip=2 from a 137-char checkout, skip=3 from a 38-char one, differing in how w3fixlegendcheck's tie SKIP fell relative to the window" against the captured corpus, and was right that nothing in it supports the attribution: on the merge base that gate's N=3 arm PASSES, so its only skip marker is the NDEBUG degrade row ~3 KB in. The story is nonetheless correct, and the missing piece was which tree it belongs to. 3c191bd is a commit on a feature branch, not on main. Checked out and run with one binary, arm output byte-identical after line 1: 38-char root banner 168 B tie row at 308 old rule: SKIP 138-char root banner 268 B tie row at 408 old rule: PASS and the tie is the reported one, `TIE 0.0928 vs 0.093`. It straddles the window by 8 bytes. So the claim stands, now with the tree named and the numbers measured rather than relayed, and with the explicit statement that an absolute offset is a property of a gate's output on a particular corpus. The defect never depended on this story — editchecknotecheck at +255 and the fixture's own 219/581 prove it independently — but the claim did. F7 — the EVALS table's absolute column was the degrade row on main, which is not the row the symptom is about; it is replaced by the reproduction above. The banner figures and the 150 B delta were exact and are unchanged. F6 — "28 gates print their skip MARKER downstream of a root mention" was the bare-substring count, which the same paragraph rejects. Measured both ways: 24 by the marker grammar, 28 by the substring the old rule actually used, the four extra being gates that only narrate the word. All three sites now give both numbers and say which is which. F2 — the new rule opens a direction the old one closed: a whole-gate skip printing any PASS row before its skip marker now reads as a pass, and nothing enforces the convention against it. Also corrected: gateexitcheck arm (D) does NOT hold the gate side of this contract — it flags an exit 0 only where a skip word and ALL PASS sit within three lines, so it never policed marker order. Disclosed in the classifier, the gate header, the CHANGELOG and EVALS, with the enforcing arm named as belonging beside (D). NITS TAKEN. F3 `_PASS_RE` gains the `<name>: PASS` form — 15 gates print it, and widening changes 0 of the 628, so it is a latent hole closed rather than a behaviour change. F4 headbinlib.sh:149 still stated the retired 400-byte rule. F5 the classifier quoted namingcalibrationcheck's old sentence, which this same PR rewrote, so the quoted text existed nowhere in the tree. F9 the fixture's short base now refuses with exit 2 instead of producing a confusing arm-(0) red. F10 arm (G) now checks the CALL SITE as well as the function body, because `classify_skipped(rc, out[:800])` passed a gate whose header claims no fixed-size prefix survives anywhere; shown red on exactly that mutation, green restored. NIT DECLINED. F8, CRLF in the `; SKIP` form: no producer of CRLF exists anywhere in the suite, and adding an alternative no gate exercises is the untested path this repo declines to carry. If a CRLF-emitting gate ever lands, the arm comes with it. Gates: skipclassifycheck ALL PASS (13 arms, and (G) verified red-then-green on a relocated ruler); deckcheck ALL PASS.

…e offsets name what actually moves them Three residuals from the re-check of 7a63c02. Two are text. The third asked for a qualifier that turns out to be wrong, and the measurement that shows why is worth more than the qualifier would have been. R1 and R2 — the F2 correction had reached four of six sites. test/skipclassifycheck.sh:51 still called gateexitcheck arm (D) "the gate side of the same contract", and docs/EVALS.md's section intro called it "the gate-side half of the contract" 76 lines above the paragraph that corrects it, so the document disagreed with itself. Both now say what that arm actually holds: it flags an `exit 0` only where a skip word and "ALL PASS" sit within three lines, so it never policed marker ORDER. R3 — the request was to note that the 308/408 offsets were taken on a `+dirty` tree, on the evidence that a clean checkout gives 302/402, a six-byte shift the width of a dirty stamp. That does not reproduce, and writing it would have published a false condition. Measured on a freshly created worktree of 3c191bd, `git status --porcelain` empty before AND after the run, no `+dirty` anywhere in the transcript: the tie row is at 308, the same figure. Then the variable isolated directly, same clean checkout, same 38-character root: binary named at 101 chars tie row @308 banner 168 binary named at 33 chars tie row @240 banner 100 the same two, tree made dirty by an untracked file: 308 and 240, unchanged So dirtiness moves this row by zero bytes — the offset is the sum of the gate's own printed rows, and no git stamp appears among them — while the BINARY path does move it, because the banner spells `BIN=` as well as `ROOT=`. That also corrects a slope I had stated loosely: the root moves this row 1 B per character, not 2, because this gate's banner spells the root ONCE; it reaches 2 B per character only when the binary sits under that root, which is the posture the original report was in and is why its flip needed only a 100-character rename. The EVALS table now names all three conditions — which tree, how the binary path is spelled, and that dirtiness is not one of them — and states that the published figures were taken on a clean checkout with the binary at a 101-character path outside the tree. Same rule as before, one level down: an absolute offset belongs to a named tree AND a named invocation. Gates: skipclassifycheck ALL PASS, deckcheck ALL PASS.

…ery offset now names its unit
The reviewer's last finding, and it is the same class this PR exists to fix — a published
number whose unit was never stated, measured one way and compared against a threshold
defined the other way.
THE RULER WAS NEVER BYTES. run_gate returns raw bytes; run() decodes them
(`out = raw.decode("utf-8", "replace")`, pargates.py:572 on the base) and the old
classification sliced the STR afterwards (`out[:400]`, :582), so the window counted code
points. Every offset I published was measured on bytes. This suite prints box-drawing rules
and em dashes liberally, so the two units drift apart exactly where the gates are chattiest.
WHAT CHANGED, AND WHAT DID NOT. No conclusion moves. The w3fixlegendcheck tie row on
3c191bd is at 302 and 402 CHARACTERS against 308 and 408 bytes, and 302 < 400 < 402 lands
the flip exactly as the byte figures did — the straddle is two characters rather than eight
bytes, tighter, not looser. The six is the box-drawing rule and the em dash on the two rows
above it. The reachability figures are unaffected in a way worth stating: all three standing
skips declare over pure ASCII, so editchecknotecheck's 145 and the +255 that follows from it
are the same number in both units.
WHAT WAS ACTUALLY WRONG. test/skipclassifycheck.sh measured its fixture in bytes and
asserted the straddle against 400 — a byte measurement against a character threshold. It now
decodes first, exactly as the harness does, and reports 213 and 575 characters against the
219 and 581 bytes it reported before. Both still straddle, so the arm's verdict is unchanged
and its assertion is now about the property it claims. The fixture's slope is restated as
177 + 2*len(root) characters (181 in bytes) and the boundary as a 112-character root, not
110.
Every site now names the unit: the classifier's comment cites the decode-then-slice, the
gate header and arm (0) say "characters of decoded text", and the CHANGELOG and EVALS give
both numbers where they differ and say which one the threshold is in.
Gates: skipclassifycheck ALL PASS, deckcheck ALL PASS.

… and the closed form lands with its unit The units defect, fifth site and third independent finder. CodeRabbit's review of 5e44b17 flagged docs/EVALS.md:13746 calling the cutoff a "400-byte boundary" when the harness decodes before slicing, so the cutoff counts code points. It found one site. The sweep — every `400` in the four files this PR touches, each classified as cutoff, marker offset, literal code, or unrelated — found FOUR, all of them the cutoff: docs/EVALS.md:13746 "the 400-byte boundary" docs/EVALS.md:13780 "out of a 400-byte window" test/skipclassifycheck.sh:61 "the old 400 B boundary" test/skipclassifycheck.sh:159 "the old 400 B boundary" docs/EVALS.md:13712 ("near byte 400") is deliberately left: CodeRabbit reasoned that it describes a marker's byte offset inside a byte-framed paragraph rather than the cutoff, and that is defensible as written. `out[:400]` at :13728 is literal code and "either side of 400" at :13731 is unitless. Also here, rather than in the merge commit where it was staged: arm (A)'s green row printed character offsets with a "B" suffix — the one row quoting those values without the unit wording, in the gate that exists to say offsets need units — and the closed form for the w3fixlegendcheck tie row, which had been approved for the merge commit and whose 65-character prediction was quoted at its byte value. It is 163 + len(BIN) + len(ROOT) CHARACTERS (169 + … in bytes); the prediction was computed in advance as 329 characters / 335 bytes and measured at exactly that. WHY THESE ARE A COMMIT AND NOT THE MERGE COMMIT. They were staged for the merge on the argument that another push costs a CI round on a PR queued last. That premise expired — the lanes ahead are being rewritten against twenty-two review findings — and it was the wrong trade regardless: folding content into a merge commit puts text on main that no CI run ever saw, and one of these is a gate's own printf label, which is the kind of string another gate can grep for. Green is proven here, not assumed. The merge commit now carries nothing but the merge. Gates: skipclassifycheck ALL PASS (13 arms; (0) and (A) now report 213/575 characters), deckcheck ALL PASS, and the re-sweep returns only the two pre-existing EVALS lines that belong to other sections.

the declaration when it occurs beyond that limit.

…as listed with no reason Review finding on a4595e4, and it is this PR's own family one level along: two windows over the same transcript that disagree. classify_skipped() reads the WHOLE transcript, so the verdict is right. The report kept for the SKIPPED section is a fixed prefix, `out[:2000]`, and skip_reason() then runs over THAT. For any gate whose declaration sits past the prefix the two disagree: the gate is correctly counted as having proved nothing, and is then printed with an empty reason — the one thing that section exists to say. A row reading `probelatereason.sh` and nothing else is not something a reader can act on. The comment on that line claimed the prefix was "enough for the caller to quote the SKIP's own reason". That was an assumption, never a guarantee, and my own skip_reason() had been resting on it since it replaced the inline search. Fixed by carrying the declaration when the prefix does not already hold it: the bound grows by one line, never by the transcript, and a gate whose reason already falls inside the prefix is byte-identical to before. Also renamed the summary loop's variable from `out` to `report`, because it binds the stored report rather than the transcript and the name is what made the two windows read as one. Red first — new arm (H). Its probe pads with narration carrying no verdict marker, so the first marker really is its SKIP, and the declaration lands at character 3221. It reads pargates' own SKIPPED section rather than the --json verdict, because the verdict is correct in both worlds and only the printed row is wrong. Against the unfixed code: PASS (H) fixture is real: the probe's declaration sits at character 3221, past the 2000-character report window FAIL (H) the SKIPPED row lost its reason (row: ' probelatereason.sh ') and green after. Arm (G) did not and should not have caught this: it polices fixed-size slices in classify_skipped() and at its call site, and this slice is on the report path. Gates: skipclassifycheck ALL PASS (14 arms). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
… had crossed the complexity bar 027f21a fixed a real defect and paid for it in the wrong place: run()'s cognitive complexity went 14 -> 16 against a bar of 15, because the declaration-carrying rule landed as an extra branch with a compound condition inside an existing one. The range-form quality-delta names it as the only gating row of this branch (`complexity sym=run was=14 now=16 p=test/pargates.py:630`); the head before it was clean at regressions=0 gating=0, so the row is mine and new. The rule is now `skip_report()`, beside `skip_reason()` where it belongs — the two answer the same question about the same text, and run() is back to one call. The 2000 also stops being a bare literal on that path: it is `REPORT_CHARS`, named once, since a magic number on a window is what this whole branch has been about. No behaviour change from the extraction: arm (H) still reds on the unfixed rule and passes here, and a gate whose declaration already falls inside the prefix still gets a byte-identical report. Gates: skipclassifycheck ALL PASS (14 arms). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Taking this lane over for the 0.6.1 landing — announcing per the house rule before touching another session's branch. If its original session is still active, say so and I will hand it straight back. Main is now |
Five conflicts, all mechanical, resolved as the lane contract prescribes:
test/regression.sh UNION of the absorb loops, not a side. Mine added skipclassifycheck;
main added recentscopecheck, scroundtripcheck and situshapecheck. The
union is 618 and stays sorted, as the incoming side was.
CHANGELOG.md BOTH sections kept under [Unreleased] — mine (70 lines) above main's
(820), which is where every lane inserted.
README.md The three generated gate-count sites. Every conflict block was
docs/EVALS.md identical apart from the number (615 against 617), so each was cleared
present/deck5_…js to the incoming side and then REWRITTEN by the generator. Resolved
block by block rather than by taking whole files, because docs/EVALS.md
also carries this branch's own new section, which a wholesale
--theirs would have discarded.
`python3 docs/gatecount_build.py` then wrote **618** to all 8 marked sites across those three
files, and `--check` agrees with the loop. The number was never typed: both sides were wrong
here (main 617, this branch 615), which is the loud form of the trap — when two lanes write
the SAME new number the three files auto-merge clean and publish a wrong one with nothing red.
docs/TUNING.md needed no regeneration: this branch never touched it, and the merged file is
byte-identical to main's, so #219's regenerated version arrived intact. README's "212
compile-time caps" matches limits_build's 212, and neither side moved it.

The defect
test/pargates.pydecided whether a gate had SKIPPED — ran, but proved nothing — witha fixed byte window over the transcript. Gates open with a banner naming their own absolute paths (
<name>: BIN=<abs> ROOT=<abs>) — 515 of the 628 transcripts captured from one full suite run carry the crawl root in their first line, 524 anywhere — so for those the window's contents are a function of the checkout's pathname, and every offset after the banner travels with it.Measured on
test/w3fixlegendcheck.sh, whose transcript is byte-identical after line 1 at both paths:A 150 B shift from a 75-character rename — about 2 B per character, because the root is spelled twice. That is the reported symptom: the same commit, the same binary and byte-identical gate output reported
skip=2from a 137-character worktree andskip=3from a 38-character checkout, differing only in how one honest arm-level tie SKIP fell relative to byte 400.The suite's summary line is what
LANE_RULEStells every lane to read before every push, and the same rules mandate a run from a CI-length 38-character checkout for byte-sensitive lanes. A count that moves with the pathname is not evidence.The exposure is not one gate's, and the dangerous direction is the other one
Measured over all 628 gate transcripts of one full suite run on this repository: 28 gates print their skip marker downstream of at least one absolute-root mention, so their classification travelled with the checkout. The nearest is a real standing skip —
test/editchecknotecheck.shdeclares its skip at byte 145, and 255 more characters of checkout path (a 342-character root, ordinary for a nested worktree or a CI runner) push that declaration out of the window, at which point a gate that proved nothing is counted as a pass. Which gates are in range is a property of the machine rather than of the commit, so a wider window was never the answer.The window's test was also a bare substring, so five gates that merely narrate the word SKIPPED in prose (
doctorcheck,formatgatecheck,headbinstagecheck,mcpreadloopcheck,releaseinstallcheck) are counted as having proved nothing whenever that prose falls inside it.The change
The rule is written down instead of measured in bytes:
It lives in a documented
classify_skipped(rc, out)with the measurement and the red that produced it in the comment above it, and it reads verdict markers (SKIP xfromskip(),<name>: SKIP …,SKIP: …,…; SKIP) rather than a bare substring.skip_reason()quotes the declaration line itself in the SKIPPED section, never a line that merely mentions the word.This is what the tree already did on purpose —
namingcalibrationcheckruns its live arm first so its skip banner precedes its instrument arm's pass rows,argvdiffcheck's skip is its opening line — now free of the offsets.The gate side of the same contract is
test/gateexitcheck.sharm (D) ("a skip prints a skip marker and a reason and NO failure marker"). This is the harness side of it.Measured effect
Behaviour-preserving where it was already right. The shipped
classify_skipped()and_SKIP_RE/_PASS_REwere lifted out oftest/pargates.pybyastand replayed over all 628 captured transcripts against the old rule:and a faithful rename simulation (replacing the checkout path throughout each transcript, the only thing a rename changes) flips 0 gates under the new rule.
Red first
test/skipclassifycheck.shdrives the realtest/pargates.pyover synthetic probe corpora — never a reimplementation of its logic — followingpargatescheck.sh's house pattern.Arm (0) is a presence guard that proves the fixture's contrast is real: the same byte-identical probe's skip row lands at 311 B from the short root and 573 B from the long one, opposite sides of the old boundary. Without it, arm (A) would be a control whose two halves differ in nothing and would pass against a classifier that never read the output at all.
Against the unchanged classifier:
Against the fixed one:
skipclassifycheck: ALL PASS, all thirteen arms.Arm (E) pins the two shapes this tree actually ships so they cannot regress —
argvdiffcheck's (the skip is the opening line) andnamingcalibrationcheck's (a skip banner up front, then an instrument arm that still prints PASS rows). The second is load-bearing: a rule that only counted gates with no pass rows would silently stop counting it, which is the green-while-inert failure the mechanism exists to prevent. Arm (G) is static, because a window widened toout[:800]would satisfy every functional arm on this fixture and still be a ruler.Also in this PR
Three gates carried comments that documented the byte window and were left false by the change —
formatgatecheck.sh(:15, :84),headbinstagecheck.sh(:58),namingcalibrationcheck.sh(:22, :73). Each now states the rule that replaced it and namesclassify_skipped(). Two are load-bearing beyond documentation and the rewrite keeps that:namingcalibrationcheck's arm order still matters, andheadbinstagecheck's bare|| skipis still a hole, because a skip printed after a gate has claimed a verdict is arm-level and the gate still reads as a pass.test/skipclassifycheck.shis listed intest/regression.sh; the published gate count is regenerated bydocs/gatecount_build.py(614 → 615); and the gate is pinned inbinoverridecheck'sEXEMPTlist, because it binds no ripwire binary — exactly likepargatescheck— and arm (4) reported it as a false-green until it was.Review round (CodeRabbit, 2026-09-14)
Two findings, both real, both verified against the code before acting; fixed in
3df4ece5.A FAIL row below line 1 was invisible to the rule.
_MARKER_REhad nore.M, andclassify_skipped()matches it against a whole transcript — so^bound only to the start of the string,^\s*FAIL\band^FAILURES ABOVEwere dead below line 1, and the only alternative still firing was the unanchoredSOME CHECKS FAILED. A gate that printed a FAIL row, then a SKIP row, and exited 0 leftclaimsempty and was classified as having proved nothing, when it had claimed a verdict before it skipped. Now compiled withre.M— a no-op for the other caller, sincefailure_lines()searches one line at a time and a single line has no newline for^to find.Red first, as a new arm (D2): a probe printing a bare FAIL row then a SKIP row and exiting 0. It deliberately does not print
SOME CHECKS FAILED, because that unanchored alternative would match by accident and the arm would pass while testing nothing. Against the unfixed code:The 628-transcript replay is unchanged by the fix: still zero disagreements with the old rule, same three skips.
"Every gate opens with a banner" was an overclaim, and the number under it was measured by a different recipe than the claim it supported — 506 came from grepping gate sources for
BIN=$BIN, while the claim is about what a transcript contains. Measured over the 628 transcripts: 515 carry the crawl root in their first line, 524 anywhere. All three sites now state that figure with its recipe.End-to-end, on the thing that was reported
The suite run from a 39-character checkout and from an 87-character one, same commit, same binary:
gates=629 pass=625 skip=3 fail=1gates=629 pass=626 skip=3 fail=0skip=3both times, naming the same three gates. The single red in the short tree is environmental and unrelated:clonededupcheck.shreads<root>/build/ripwiredirectly instead ofRIPWIRE_BIN, and that scratch checkout has no build directory.Gates run
CI was 31/31 green at the previous head
a318d013; the review fixes above are the only change since.The three skips are the environmental ones (
argvdiffcheck,editchecknotecheckwith no reference binary;g1freshcheckwith noasan/configured).Pins moved: none. No
src/change, no emitted bytes, no legend, no budget or cap table.Notes for the reviewer
README.md,docs/EVALS.mdandpresent/deck5_ripwire_build.jsplus thetest/regression.shloop — the same lines feat(churn): --in=DIR scopes recent changes to a directory, and the window discloses the merge bombs it skipped #212, perf(testmap): tests-to-run rows without a runner are grouped by hop distance, the disclosure once per group #214, perf(output): short symbol ids on maps, a present-only compact legend on --for, and compact by default on agent surfaces #215 and perf(situ): one root per report, disclosures as attributes, and a changed file's lexical siblings #219 touch. Whichever lands first, the other rebases and re-runs the generator. TheREADME.mdline is the gate count only, nowhere near the 0.6.1 paragraph the release PR adds.LANE_RULES' clause "gate output must never contain the word SKIP in its first 400 bytes unless it really skips" can be retired — that constraint was the workaround for this defect.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
