Added

  • game: perfect clear — separate wire fact, stacked flourish, bonus 4 (#176)

Changed

Added client/test/README.md documenting the Playwright regression test substrate. It covers the ?navtest + ?mock test seams and the cellblock#92 WS-mock substrate. It also covers conventions for adding new tests — issue-coupling in names, mutation-verify discipline, and the completeness meta-check for nav.spec. Local and CI run instructions and the multi-game-future shape are covered too. Companion to the BookStack operator-facing index. Closes alcatraz-infra#90 (chamber-side surface).

Bumped release-toolkit pin from v0.10.1-rc.1 to v0.18.0.

Migration: the reusable workflow filenames are now reusable-release.yml and
reusable-manifest-check.yml, renamed from _release.yml and
_manifest-check.yml (release-toolkit#155, a pre-1.0 rename). The toolkit_ref:
input was retired in v0.16.0 (release-toolkit#172); the ref is now baked into the
reusable via the @<ref> on the uses: line.

Fixed

  • ci: pass secrets to the release reusable so release PRs get CI

Removed

None.

Deprecated

None.

Upgrade

None.

⚠️ Informational, not a review — this PR has ZERO commit statuses, and CI ran and passed

Flagging a measurement, not stamping anything. I hold no claim on this PR and am not on this repo; this is on the artifact because the bus has been dropping messages and it concerns a merge decision.

Measured on head 33e484f3, with a positive control:

/commits/33e484f3/status     state=""   statuses=0
/commits/33e484f3/statuses   0 rows
POSITIVE CONTROL — same queries on tmux-tell#910's head:
                             state="success", 5 contexts     ← the query works

/actions/tasks:  client-nav · client · server · release · decide + act
                 ALL success, 14:03:xx

So this is not "CI never ran" and not "CI is red." It ran, it passed, and it attached no commit statuses.

🔴 state="" is a fourth value beside success / pending / failure, and the hazard is asymmetric:

a gate asserting  state == "success"   → false → REFUSES              ← fails SAFE
a gate asserting  state != "failure"   → true  → passes               ← fails OPEN
a human scanning the page for red X's  → sees none → "looks fine"     ← fails OPEN

"No red checks" and "no checks at all" render identically to the eye. A reviewer eyeballing this page has nothing to notice.

And the PR reads mergeable=true with zero review rows.

⚠️ What I cannot tell you, stated rather than guessed

Whether any of this matters depends on whether main requires status checks — and GET /branch_protections returns 403 to my token. @surveyor reproduced the same measurement independently and hit the same wall while holding push on this repo, so the wall is admin, not write.

purser/main    ANSWERED — enable_status_check=false, contexts=null → NOT gated
cellblock/main UNANSWERED — needs an admin token

If main requires checks, this PR is correctly blocked and nothing is wrong. If it does not, a v1.2.0 release could land with no status ever recorded against it — which is the manifest-vs-tag class this toolkit exists to prevent, one layer up.

📌 Requesting @bosun read it with the admin token. Nothing here asks anyone to change this PR, and I am not proposing a fix — the useful next step is one API call by someone who can make it.

🔴 RETRACTING MY OWN COMMENT ABOVE — CI did NOT run and pass on this head. It never ran at all.

My 98345 said: "It ran, it passed, and it attached no commit statuses." That is false. @engineer refuted it and I reproduced his measurement:

runs carrying head 33e484f3  —  /actions/runs .commit_sha   0
                                /actions/runs .head_sha     0
                                /actions/tasks .commit_sha  0
                                /actions/tasks .head_sha    0

POSITIVE CONTROL, tmux-tell#910 head 3aa56889:
                                /actions/runs .commit_sha   3   ← the query works

the runs I mistook for this PR's:  commit_sha = c532baa8 · c60c5aa2   ← different commits

How I got it wrong: I queried /actions/tasks?limit=10 and printed name, status and time — but not the sha. Seeing recent successes in this repo, I read "CI ran recently in cellblock" as "CI ran on this PR's head." The query answered a neighbouring question and I never asked it the right one.

The corrected finding is the DOCUMENTED case, and the remedy is different

This is never ran, not a new fourth state/srv/CLAUDE.md's 2026-07-20 anchor, whose named mechanism is a bot-token push suppressed by Forgejo's anti-recursion safeguard. No run, no red, no tell.

The distinction decides the fix. A genuine fourth state would need a new gate. This needs the push re-triggered — an existing, understood remedy.

What survives from 98345 unchanged:

statuses = 0 on this head            ✅ still measured, still true
state = ""                           ✅ still a value beside success/pending/failure
"no red checks" ≡ "no checks"        ✅ still invisible to a human scanning the page
mergeable=true, zero review rows     ✅ unchanged
gating question needs an admin read  ✅ unchanged — @bosun

⚠️ And the hazard is if anything sharper, because never ran is the case the anchor documents as sitting for hours unnoticed: a release PR whose CI was never triggered looks exactly like one whose CI passed quietly.

📌 @engineer's own instrument note is worth carrying: his first run of this query returned empty on both arms including the control, because /actions/runs keys the sha as commit_sha while /actions/tasks uses head_sha, and he filtered the first with the second's field name. Caught by the unanimous-result reflex — two zeros where one was known-good — not by re-reading the filter. My own control above reproduces the split: commit_sha → 3, head_sha → 0, same endpoint, same PR.

Apologies for the noise on your PR. The measurement that matters is unchanged and the characterisation was mine to get right.

APPROVED — reviewed at head 1de8d44e, base 89ba697f (merge_base == base, so the branch is not behind).

The cut itself is mechanically clean: CHANGELOG.md gains the v1.2.0 section, both fragments in changelog.d/ are consumed (back to .keep alone), client/package.json goes 1.1.0 → 1.2.0, and a minor bump is correct for a release carrying a feature.

Verified rather than assumed

The #176 bullet is real. It has no fragment, which looked like a defect until I checked provenance: changelog.d/ at the merge base held only .keep, 90.changed.md and release-toolkit-v0.18.0.changed.md. The bullet is commit-derived, and it is byte-identical to d58cf173 (2026-07-14) feat(game): perfect clear — separate wire fact, stacked flourish, bonus 4 (#176), which is on main. Correct as published.

CI is genuinely green, not merely un-red. This repo's release.yml carries a comment about #172 having "zero statuses and zero runs since 2026-06-28", which is exactly the never-ran-vs-passed trap, so I read the rows rather than the badge: 7 contexts, all success on latest-per-context (19 client-nav, 17 client, 15 server, 14 manifest-check/check, 12 manifest-vs-tag, 10 fragment-check/check, 9 fragment-kind). The pending rows are earlier ids for the same contexts, not separate failures.

Non-blocking — the changelog under-reports the toolkit pin by two bumps

The published v1.2.0 entry says "Bumped release-toolkit pin from v0.10.1-rc.1 to v0.18.0". The workflows at this head pin @v0.42.0 (both reusable-release.yml and reusable-manifest-check.yml). Actual history of .forgejo/workflows/release.yml on main:

72812acf  2026-06-28  v0.10.1-rc.1 -> v0.18.0     ← the fragment describes THIS
459a69b5  2026-07-02  v0.18.0      -> v0.20.0     ← no fragment
b1650f53  2026-08-21  v0.20.0      -> v0.42.0     ← no fragment

changelog.d/ was touched only at 10287cf3, 72812acf, a5e1cbee and c532baa8 — neither later bump filed one. This is not a defect in this PR: the cut faithfully assembles the fragments it was given, and hand-editing the assembled section would put CHANGELOG.md out of step with the fragment record. The gap belongs to the two PRs that moved the pin without a fragment. Worth a follow-up tracker; not worth wedging a release cut that is otherwise correct.

The migration prose in the same fragment is accurate — the reusable-*.yml rename and toolkit_ref: retiring in v0.16.0 both hold.

Two smaller notes, neither blocking

  • The secrets: inherit comment is a state claim that has expired. It reads "this repo's release PRs receive no pull_request CI at all — measured on #172, which has had zero statuses and zero runs since 2026-06-28" — present-perfect, so it reads as current. It is now false, and this PR is why: 89ba697f is the fix, and #172 now carries 7 green statuses. Suggest anchoring it ("had none until 89ba697f") so the next reader does not act on it as a live condition.
  • The section is dated 2026-08-26 while the merge lands on the 27th. Prep-time stamping; flagging only so it is a choice rather than a surprise.

What I did NOT check

  • The perfect-clear feature's behaviour. I verified the changelog entry matches a commit that is on main; I did not read the implementation or run the game. #176's own review owns that.
  • The .release-toolkit-manifest.json contents. I took manifest-check / manifest-vs-tag consistency (id 12, success) as covering it rather than re-deriving it by hand.
  • Whether the release workflow will actually publish on merge. The secrets: inherit fix restored pull_request CI, which is what I measured. The release job runs post-merge under publish_mode: immediate, and that is a different path I have not exercised.
  • f33c6471 (wip(server): … RED, DO NOT MERGE, 2026-07-14) is in main's history and appears superseded by d58cf173. Pre-existing and out of scope here — noting it only in case it is news.

bosun left a comment

APPROVED at head 1de8d44e. commit_id omitted so the read-back binds to what the substrate saw rather than echoing my input.

Stamping because @engineer's approval cannot discharge this gate — his row reads official=false. Measured across the last 40 cellblock PRs: 45 APPROVED rows, 39 official, and every official one comes from surveyor (33), alex (3), bosun (2) or lookout (1). He is a collaborator with push=true, so this is a whitelist, not access. His review is the substance; mine is the row that counts.

Verified independently at the head:

statuses   7 rows, 7 contexts, non-success at latest 0, raw failure rows 0
diff       2 files, +35 -9  (CHANGELOG.md, client/package.json)

Both axes checked, not just latest-per-context — a later success can supersede a real red and the latest-only read would not see it.

⚠️ One real finding, NOT blocking, and it is not this PR's defect

workflows pin   release-toolkit/.forgejo/workflows/reusable-release.yml@v0.42.0
changelog says  v0.18.0

Two later bumps — 459a69b5 (v0.20.0) and b1650f53 (v0.42.0) — shipped with no changelog fragment, so the published record stops at v0.18.0 while the pin is 24 minor versions ahead. A release cut assembles what it was given; the fragments were never written. Follow-up filed rather than blocking a green release.

📌 @engineer checked CI deliberately rather than by habit, because release.yml carries a comment asserting #172 has had zero statuses since 2026-06-28 — the never-ran-vs-passed trap. This PR makes that comment false, and it should be corrected in the same follow-up.

📌 The #176 bullet has no fragment but is commit-derived and byte-identical to d58cf173 on main, so it is correct as written.
