fix(manifest): fold in both cross-frontier panels — and a live hole in v0.2.2
Two four-arm artifact-only rounds landed together: the contract paraphrase (against the pre-seam-review capture) and the code-vs-contract conformance review (against the amended one), correctly firewalled from each other. The conformance round found ZERO drift in the strict sense — the code is a clause-for-clause implementation of the contract — and the weight of both rounds landed one layer down, in what green tests structurally cannot report. Full triage in persistent-memory.d/. A LIVE HOLE IN RELEASED CODE, FOUND ON THE SIBLING MODULE v0.2.2 adopted the RecursionError finding from the bug-hunt round and closed half of it: `_hydrate_safe` guards hydration, but `json.loads` runs above it in `_read_raw`, whose catch list covers neither RecursionError nor MemoryError. A 400 KB file of nothing but brackets in any ONE booth therefore still returned 500 for `/` and `/healthz` across every booth on the service. Confirmed by running it before believing it. Both modules now bound the read by `stat` before touching the bytes and catch both classes anyway, so raising a bound later cannot quietly re-open the hole. The strict half of the marks asymmetry refuses everything the lenient half tolerates, or a file that reads as "no marks" gets replaced by a write that believed it. THE WHY-WIPE `booth new x --why "..."` then `booth add x out/*.png` erased the sentence the first command existed to record. Omitted flags meant empty strings and empty strings overwrote. Two arms predicted it from the contract's wording alone; every test here passed --why on both calls and so could not see it. Omitted now means unchanged and an explicit --why "" still clears — the shell carries the distinction by leaving the variable UNSET, not empty. --title WAS WRITE-ONLY Stored, flag-surfaced, rendered nowhere. 4/4, and independently top-ranked by every arm of the paraphrase round. It lands on the booth page heading with the directory name beside it, because the directory name is the identity the operator navigates by and refers to positionally. THREE TESTS THAT COULD NOT FAIL - test_the_write_is_atomic asserted no *.tmp survived, which a plain write_text passes. It asserts the inode changes now. (The first replacement was ALSO vacuous — it spied on os.open, which Path.write_text reaches through io.open in C and never touches. Recorded in the test, because writing a second vacuous test while fixing the first is exactly the failure this round is about.) - The INV-3 preservation test passed against an implementation that regenerated `created` every time, because _now() is whole-second resolution and back-to-back writes share a stamp. Seeded from 2019 now. - test_announcing_is_activity passed whether or not _newest_mtime counted the manifest, because writing it bumps the directory mtime either way. The directory's clock is put back, leaving the file as the only thing that can keep the booth alive. ALSO - The title fallback skipped the normalizer the explicit value gets; a directory name may legally carry a newline and run to 255 bytes. - Every writer derived the same .booth.json.tmp. Marks are protected from that by their flock; the manifest has none, so uniqueness stands in. - test_stdlib_only was blind to relative imports in all four modules. - INV-1 had no guard at all; INV-5 named two different promises; the negative render states were asserted on the index only. Contract amended throughout: the 4 GB case is a stat-checked bound rather than a return constraint, every field of an error-carrying record has a stated value, INV-1 no longer contradicts INV-3, repo-wide rules are named in words instead of by a colliding number, and touches admits the macro partial the implementation added. 329 tests. |

test(probe): teach the layout probe about <details>, and guard the flag parser
THE PROBE. A control inside a CLOSED <details> is laid out but sits outside its collapsed parent's box, so elementFromPoint at its centre returns an ancestor and it reports OCCLUDED — 23 of them on sindra-set, every one a false positive. Verified both ways before believing it: closed, elementFromPoint returns div.gallery; opened, the button itself, and a real trial click lands on it. Opening every <details> rather than skipping them is the deliberate choice. Skipping would make the probe quiet by declaring put-away controls out of scope, and the add-note button inside details.item-addnote is exactly the class of control this instrument exists to check. Fourth false-positive class this probe has grown a guard for; the other three are already in its header. THE FLAG PARSER. Three cases that silently break and are cheap to pin: the flags on either side of the glob (a session should not have to remember which), a why carrying quotes, an em-dash, a newline and non-ASCII, and --why with no value after it, which must produce usage rather than eating the booth name and creating a booth called nothing. 313 tests. |

feat(manifest): U5 — booths that say who posted them and why
The index card showed a name, an item count and a countdown, and nothing
the poster chose. An agent with something to show therefore had no way to
make the booth say "look at this" and posted a URL to the link board
instead — which is why 145 of that board's 210 rows (69%) ended up
pointing at booths that had already been swept. The board was absorbing a
job it was never shaped for. This is the shape.
Each booth carries `.booth.json` — {handle, title, why, created} — written
by the CLI from $ALTHING_HANDLE, and the provenance line renders on both
index lanes and on the booth page header.
WHAT IS WHERE
- booth/manifest.py, stdlib-only and importing nothing from booth.* either:
scripts/booth imports it under the system python3 with no venv, and a
cross-import between two stdlib-only modules is a second way for that
invariant to break. It joins the shared test_stdlib_only list and keeps
a stricter copy of its own.
- The read is lenient and cannot raise. list_booths touches every booth on
every index load, so a manifest that cannot be parsed costs that booth's
provenance and nothing else. That is the v0.2.2 lesson applied before the
same mistake rather than after it.
- Absent and damaged render differently — `unannounced` and `unreadable`.
Folding "cannot be read" into "never said" would hide the one case
somebody has to go and fix.
- Re-announcing preserves `created`. A second `booth add` sharpening the
why is not a second appearance of the booth.
- The write is atomic (invariant 5); the temp file is itself a dotfile, so
no listing can see it mid-write.
THREE OPERATOR CALLS, 2026-09-22
Flags on the existing new/add verbs rather than a separate `announce` verb
(a second step is the step that gets forgotten, which is the rot's own
mechanism). Unannounced booths get a quiet marker rather than nothing — the
convention is only adoptable if the gap is visible. U5 adds provenance only
and does NOT add a second index ordering keyed on announcement time; that
is a different surface needing its own stated rule, parked for v1.1.
NO EXEMPTION LIST
A pickup booth and the standing link board are created by the service, so
they announce themselves with handle `booth`, which is true rather than
manufactured. One rule — a booth with no manifest is unannounced — instead
of a growing set of special cases.
ALSO
tests/test_booth.py's keep/release assertion was slicing the page on the
bare word `boothhead`, which has lived in the stylesheet far longer than
the assertion has; it was reading CSS and passing on luck, and went red the
first time a new rule landed above the old one. Same assertion, aimed at
the markup. A U5 test had the mirror-image bug: pytest derives tmp_path
from the test name and the index renders data_dir, so a test named
`test_an_unannounced_booth_says_so` put the needle in the haystack itself
and passed against a template that did not yet exist.
310 tests (304 before this unit's CLI half). Live service restarted, 26/26
booth pages verified 200, end-to-end smoke through the real CLI.
NOT TAGGED. The cold contract-review panel is still in flight and the
code-review and bug-hunt gates have not run. Tagging with a gate
outstanding is what made v0.2.0 premature.

fix(marks): v0.2.2 — nine findings from the cross-frontier bug-hunt panel
`/heid-bug-hunt` on U2's diff, four arms, artifact-only. Eight findings were real against live code; a ninth was already closed by v0.2.1 and is recorded as declined. Full triage in persistent-memory.d/2026-09-22-bug-hunt-panel.md. THE LOCK LIFECYCLE (4/4 convergent, and two defects in one place) `_Locked.__exit__` unlinked `.marks.lock` on the no-op path so a booth that had never been marked was left exactly as it was found. `flock` binds to an INODE: unlinking it under a blocked waiter leaves that waiter holding an exclusive lock on a deleted file while the next writer creates a fresh lock and takes it immediately. Two processes then run the read-modify-write concurrently, the later os.replace drops the earlier one's mark, and both obeyed the protocol. The cleanup existed to protect the booth's TTL, and was failing at that too: creating or removing a directory entry bumps the DIRECTORY's mtime, which is what `_newest_mtime` seeds from. The guard's comment reasons about the lock file's own mtime and misses that the directory moved underneath it. One fix: never unlink the lock, exempt `.<name>.lock` dotfiles from `_newest_mtime`, and restore the directory's mtime after creating one. THE READ PATH'S BLAST RADIUS `_clean_text` did `(text or "").replace(...)` and `marks_for` sorts on `(created, id)`, so a stored `text` that was a dict or a `created` that was a number raised out of the read path. `list_booths` reads every booth's marks on every index load, so one hand-edited file returned 500 for `/` and `/healthz` across all 25 booths. Guarded in two layers — a named type check and a `_hydrate_safe` backstop that cannot raise — and an unreadable mark now renders as ⚠ broken rather than as an empty note. ALSO - import_legacy_asks stamped `created` at whole-second resolution, so two sidecars from the same second lost the ordering the importer had just established and re-sorted alphabetically. Microseconds, per the stated `(mtime, name)` rule. - The five mark-write routes ran a blocking flock on the event loop; they now dispatch through run_in_threadpool, asserted structurally like INV-1. - `/answer` 500'd on a non-string `notes` form value where `/note` handled it. - The inline-doc tile had a flag control and no note field. - The marks panel was suppressed on any booth carrying a links.md. - The viewer's arrow keys and Escape threw away a note being typed. CLI `booth marks` printed a traceback and exited 0 on a failed read, and `--wait` emitted a whole JSON document per poll. `booth answer --wait` read a damaged file as "not yet" and spun the full hour. Both now use real exit codes — 0 ok, 1 unanswered/timed-out, 2 no such pick, 3 unreadable — and `--wait` prints once. `marks.read_error()` lets the CLI ask what the page must not: the browser stays lenient, the machine consumer gets the truth. `scripts/booth` had no tests; it has five now, run against the real script under the system python3, which also makes them a live check on INV-1. 275 tests (253 before). Live service restarted, 25/25 booth pages verified 200. |
