Session Handoff [default]: Audit Report Authorship Settled, Unattended Loop Live-Tested, 2.0.680 Released

[ptr727]

Next steps, in priority order

Re-read each issue and pull request rather than trusting these summaries.

1. repo-worktree's hook step installs into the git hooks dir every worktree shares #1816, the worktree hook-install defect. repo-worktree's hook step installs into the git hooks directory that every linked worktree shares, which broke Financial-Modeling's commits. Done looks like the skill checking the common hooks directory first and never installing from a linked worktree, plus gh-write-guard denying a commit-time core.hooksPath override.
2. unattended-handoff: adopted lesson issues stall, and the promotion STOP matches any decision issue #1812, fixed on reasoning rather than waiting for a live run to hit it. The live run exercised neither path, and a natural run is unlikely to soon. For an adopted lesson, count an answer recorded on the issue as closing its choices. For the promotion STOP, match only a decision issue that states it blocks the open develop -> main PR.
3. Exercise the unattended loop's parked-lane half. An attended "resume the handoff" of a lane parked under blocked has never run. Done looks like one parked lane coming back through the attended procedure intact.
4. Say the Hub Commits the Report Wherever Done-Means-Audited Is Stated #1826: reword the remaining places that say the audited repository "carries" a committed reports/<repo>/audit.md. Those are GOVERNANCE.md "Repository Onboarding and Conformance", AUDIT.md section 1, STANDUP.md section 5, standup-a-repo, docs/reusable-workflows.md, and TODO.md. The hub is the one that commits the report.
5. Carry the code-review skill bootstrap to seven repos whose Copilot reviews never state coverage #1815: carry the code-review skill bootstrap and the .github/skills tree into the seven repositories listed there, so Copilot states coverage on their pull requests.
6. Downstream resyncs for the new Fleet Bootstrap text. 2.0.680 changed the byte-locked "Fleet Bootstrap" section, so every carrier reports drift on it until its next resync. When aiopurpleair resyncs, its handoff (aiopurpleair Update codegen files #177) should drop step 3, "commit an audit report", because the report is the hub's to commit.
7. This round's smaller follow-ups: Durable Knowledge does not say where a lesson goes when no change is open #1811, audit.py --issue path never prints the no-remote hub-name warning #1810, Skill files hard-wrap while comment-and-doc-style requires one paragraph per line #1814.
8. Carried unchanged from Session Handoff [default]: WORKFLOW.md Corrections and the pyproject.toml Decision Released as 2.0.672 #1804, in its order: the native-Windows check of bootstrap.ps1, then close Bootstrap registers its temporary tree as the live Claude Code skills source, then deletes it #1756; Keep an Owned Tree Recognizable When Its Final Directory Removal Fails #1795, then Name the Leftover Old Tree When the Bash Loader Cannot Remove It #1790, Drive the PowerShell Loader's Kept-Tree Functions from the Test Suite #1791, Lock the Bootstrap Directory for a Kept-Tree Run #1792; Gate Every Repository's Python on Its Code, Not on Its Config #1800 (settle its three decisions with the maintainer before any edit, with Spec: python.profile.detect does not describe a virtual uv workspace root #1778 folded in); The menu's skills task registers a clone it then removes #1771, then Re-point a Claude Code registration an older bootstrap left dangling #1769; Say Where the Deploy-Site Task Actually Requires the SSH Key #1801; Declare the Default Workflow Token Permission in the Repository Settings Payload #1783; A regex pins a phrase inside a # comment, so rewrapping that comment fails the test with a false explanation #1732, then skills_install --report follow-ups: stamp-less live report, bootstrap remedy text, --intended guard test #1759, skills_install source_ref hides ignored files and trusts an enclosing git repo #1758, skills_install --report's live channel does not check that the plugin is installed and enabled #1757; A stacked pull request's diff reopens after the parent squash-merges, and nothing documents it #1742, Session Handoff [default]: One Issue Closed Whose Premise Was Wrong, and a Release #1735, Converge Financial-Modeling with the hub baseline (32 findings) #1579, The widened configuration shape misses the unspaced key=value an environment file writes #1717, issue-ref reads no URL outside instruction text, so an own-repository tracker URL in code is banned and unreported #1719; lower, Two skills describe the live skills channel only as a git checkout #1772, A kept skills tree edited by hand still stamps clean #1775, Nothing tests the bootstrap loaders' kept-tree swap sequence #1767, Two concurrent bootstrap runs can remove each other's tree #1764, install-skills.ps1 fails under a directory whose path contains a wildcard character #1765.

External blockers

• Financial-Modeling's shared pre-commit hook is broken until the maintainer restores .git/hooks/pre-commit.legacy over the prek hook, a one-line mv in the primary checkout that the auto-mode classifier correctly refuses an agent. Until then, every commit there fails. repo-worktree's hook step installs into the git hooks dir every worktree shares #1816 is the hub-side cause. Carried.
• Downstream promotions: the version-literal removals sit on develop in eleven fleet repositories, and each one's main carries the literals until the maintainer promotes it. Carried.
• A native Windows host is needed for step 8's first item. Carried.
• CodeRabbit needs an explicit @coderabbitai review here and allows about one review an hour. Carried.

Internal dependencies

• Carry the code-review skill bootstrap to seven repos whose Copilot reviews never state coverage #1815 comes before relying on stated coverage in those seven repositories.
• Step 6's resyncs are per-repository work in each repository's own session, per the rule State That the Hub Commits Audit Reports and a Downstream Session Resyncs Itself #1823 settled.

State

• Hub: main at the Promote the Handoff Loop, Version-Literal Ban, and Audit Report Authorship to Main #1827 promotion merge, released as 2.0.680. develop holds nothing main lacks. The primary checkout is clean on develop, and no feature branch or worktree of this round remains.
• This machine's installed Skills report current at the 2.0.680 promotion. Claude Code loads them from the primary checkout, which is on develop.
• Merged this round: Refuse a Coverage Marker Indented Into a Code Block #1820 (fixes FLEET_REVIEW's unbounded leading whitespace reads an indented, and therefore quoted, marker as stated coverage #1725) and Strip a Tilde or Unclosed Fence Before Reading Review Coverage #1825 (fixes Strip a Tilde or Unclosed Fence Before Reading Review Coverage #1821) from the unattended run, State That the Hub Commits Audit Reports and a Downstream Session Resyncs Itself #1823 from the attended session, and promotion Promote the Handoff Loop, Version-Literal Ban, and Audit Report Authorship to Main #1827, which closed FLEET_REVIEW's unbounded leading whitespace reads an indented, and therefore quoted, marker as stated coverage #1725, Strip a Tilde or Unclosed Fence Before Reading Review Coverage #1821, and Finish Aligning resync-a-repo, check-this-repo, and the Host Fleet Block With the Resync and Report Rules #1822.
• Filed and open: Say the Hub Commits the Report Wherever Done-Means-Audited Is Stated #1826.

The parked decision queue

Empty. No open issue carries the decision label. This round put these questions to the maintainer and recorded each answer:

1. Keep AUDIT.md section 8 as it stands. A downstream repository never opens a hub pull request to write its own audit report, files hub findings as issues, and may open other hub pull requests against develop. Fix the wording that contradicted it.
2. A downstream repository's own session resyncs itself per RESYNC.md, and resync-a-repo from a hub checkout is the other route.
3. Resolve the resulting check-this-repo contradiction in the same pull request.
4. Drive State That the Hub Commits Audit Reports and a Downstream Session Resyncs Itself #1823 to main, then merge and release.

What the last round did

• Live-tested unattended-handoff at scope develop with a two-round cap. Both rounds ran picker then worker and returned well-formed lines: DONE Session Handoff [auto-1725]: Bound the Fleet-Review Coverage Marker's Indentation (#1725) #1818 via Refuse a Coverage Marker Indented Into a Code Block #1820, then DONE Session Handoff [auto-1821]: Strip a Tilde or Unclosed Fence Before Reading Review Coverage (#1821) #1824 via Strip a Tilde or Unclosed Fence Before Reading Review Coverage #1825. The workers took about 43 and 28 minutes. Nothing parked, and no lesson or decision issue was filed. Round 1's worker filed Strip a Tilde or Unclosed Fence Before Reading Review Coverage #1821 as a pre-existing gap, and round 2's picker took it.
• Settled audit-report authorship and downstream self-resync (State That the Hub Commits Audit Reports and a Downstream Session Resyncs Itself #1823). The carried Fleet Bootstrap told every repository to "commit the report" without naming the hub, so downstream agents kept asking the maintainer for hub-write permission. The Fleet Bootstrap, the host fleet block, RESYNC.md, AUDIT.md, check-this-repo, and resync-a-repo now agree.
• Promoted and released 2.0.680 (Promote the Handoff Loop, Version-Literal Ban, and Audit Report Authorship to Main #1827) and refreshed this machine's Skills.

What not to repeat

• Two sessions each driving toward a promotion. This round one promotion PR was agreed by cross-session message before either session opened one. A run at scope main or release alongside an attended session driving a promotion needs the same agreement before it starts.
• An unattended run feeds on its own findings. A worker files a pre-existing gap and the next picker takes it, which can drift the run away from the maintainer's priority order. Check the picks against this list.
• Chasing a prose-gate failure on a line this branch never touched. CI checks the merge commit against the branch's merge base, so a comment line develop gained after the fork shows up as this branch's. Merge develop into the branch rather than editing the line.
• Stating one rule in a hub-only document while carried text says the opposite. A rule a downstream agent must follow has to be in what that agent reads. AUDIT.md section 8 was right the whole time, and the byte-locked Fleet Bootstrap was what agents actually read.

New learnings

• Copilot can write findings=N in its coverage marker while posting no inline comment and no suppressed block, with the only stated finding in the overview headline. Read the headline as the finding and dispose of it in a PR comment. This round's headline, on Promote the Handoff Loop, Version-Literal Ban, and Audit Report Authorship to Main #1827, was declined with evidence.
• The attended resume of a parked lane has not been exercised yet (step 3).
