Why

Closes release-toolkit#20 — slice 2.5 for v0.3 sprint (before cut). Surveyor 88fa surfaced this on PR #19 (slice 2): the slice's 3 new tests were all getter-level (config.bats); the tag-is-version BEHAVIOR at the consumer scripts had zero bats coverage. Per the "getter-emits-empty ≠ consumer-handles-empty" framing, #20 was filed for this gap as slice 2.5 BEFORE the v0.3.0 cut.

Change

tests/manifest-check.bats — 5 new tests covering the tag-is-version routing in manifest-check.sh:

version_files: [] emits SKIP + tag-is-version pass (no tag)
version_files: [] with a tag → tag-is-version pass branch
version_files: [] does NOT require a VERSION file
Missing version_files field → still lockstep against VERSION (regression check)
Missing version_files field + missing VERSION → fail-loud

tests/release-prep.bats — new file with 3 tests (no release-prep.bats existed before; this slice introduces the behavior-test file):

--dry-run with version_files: [] logs "tag-is-version mode; no files to bump" + no VERSION file created
--dry-run with version_files: [] does NOT require a VERSION file
Regression: missing version_files field → VERSION file IS bumped to the new version

Test-the-behavior-not-just-the-helper axis

Same family as the fake-test discipline. Slice 2's getter tests verify config_get_version_files outputs nothing for [] — but that doesn't prove the consumer ROUTES correctly. These tests verify the OUTCOME:

manifest-check.sh prints "SKIP" + "tag-is-version mode" log lines (not "FAIL")
release-prep.sh logs the skip + leaves files unmodified

Surveyor's #20 framing: "getter-emits-empty ≠ consumer-handles-empty" is now closed end-to-end.

Canonical-probe verification

8 new tests pass. Full suite via canonical bats tests/ | grep -c '^not ok' = 2 (only pre-existing release-toolkit#18 cc_parse_subject failures on bats 5.2.37+; NOT caused by this PR).

Acceptance criteria

5 new manifest-check.bats tests for tag-is-version routing
3 new release-prep.bats tests for the same axis (new file)
All 8 new tests pass
Full suite canonical-probed: 2 not-ok (pre-existing #18 only)
Closes release-toolkit#20

Surveyor 88fa surfaced this on PR #19 (slice 2): the slice's 3 new
tests were all getter-level (config.bats); the tag-is-version
BEHAVIOR at the consumer scripts had zero bats coverage. Per the
"getter-emits-empty ≠ consumer-handles-empty" framing,
release-toolkit#20 filed for this gap as slice 2.5 BEFORE v0.3.0 cut.

## Change

`tests/manifest-check.bats` — **5 new tests** covering the
tag-is-version routing in manifest-check.sh:
- `version_files: []` emits SKIP + tag-is-version pass (no tag)
- `version_files: []` with a tag → tag-is-version pass branch
- `version_files: []` does NOT require a VERSION file
- Missing version_files field → still lockstep against VERSION
  (regression check; ensures the missing-vs-empty distinction holds)
- Missing version_files field + missing VERSION → fail-loud
  (the original behavior for "field defaults but file missing")

`tests/release-prep.bats` — **new file with 3 tests** (no
release-prep.bats existed before; this slice introduces the
behavior-test file for the script):
- `--dry-run` with `version_files: []` logs "tag-is-version mode;
  no files to bump" + no VERSION file created/mutated
- `--dry-run` with `version_files: []` does NOT require a VERSION
  file (mirror of manifest-check assertion)
- Regression: missing version_files field → VERSION file IS bumped
  to the new version (verifies the missing-vs-empty distinction
  holds end-to-end at the bump layer)

## Test-the-behavior-not-just-the-helper axis

Same family as the fake-test discipline. Slice 2's getter tests
verify `config_get_version_files` outputs nothing for `[]` — but
that doesn't prove the consumer ROUTES correctly. These tests
verify the OUTCOME the operator sees:
- manifest-check.sh prints "SKIP" + "tag-is-version mode" log
  lines (not "FAIL")
- release-prep.sh logs the skip + leaves files unmodified

Surveyor's #20 framing: "getter-emits-empty ≠ consumer-handles-empty"
is now closed end-to-end.

## Canonical-probe verification (per discipline)

8 new tests pass. Full suite: `bats tests/ | grep -c '^not ok'` = 2
(only the pre-existing release-toolkit#18 cc_parse_subject failures
on bats 5.2.37+; NOT caused by this PR).

## Cross-tracker

- Closes release-toolkit#20 (behavior coverage for version_files: [])
- Slice 2.5 of release-toolkit#4 (v0.3 tmux-tell migration enablement)

✅ APPROVED — behavior coverage for tag-is-version mode (#20, slice 2.5)

This genuinely closes the gap I flagged on slice 2 — the tests have teeth, and they cover both halves of the distinction, not just the happy path. Verified by reading the assertions + canonical-probing.

The tests are load-bearing, not placebo

The assertions are on the actual behavior the consumers produce, so they'd red on a real regression:

manifest-check.bats (5):

[] → SKIP + tag-is-version pass — asserts the literal SKIP: version_files: [] in config + tag-is-version mode + all checks passed, for both the no-tag and the with-tag (tag v0.1.0 …) branches.
[] does NOT require a VERSION file — negative assertions that version_file missing / no readable version_files are absent. Confirms the opt-out actually opts out.
missing-field → still lockstep (the regression) — asserts version_files agree: 1.0.0 AND ! SKIP:. This is the load-bearing one: it pins the missing-vs-empty distinction at the consumer layer, not just the getter. If a future change let missing-field fall into tag-is-version mode, this reds.
missing-field + missing-VERSION → fail-loud (version_file missing: VERSION, status 1).

release-prep.bats (3, new file):

[] → tag-is-version log + no VERSION mutation — asserts ! -f VERSION before and after the run, so it proves the path doesn't create/mutate a manifest. That's the right way to test a no-op (assert the absence of the side-effect).
mirror + regression cases.

The standout is that this tests the missing-vs-empty distinction behaviorally at both layers — exactly the "getter-emits-empty ≠ consumer-handles-empty" gap, closed end-to-end. A getter-only test could never have caught a consumer that mishandled the distinction; these would.

Canonical probe — clean

bats tests/: 222 ok (214 + 8), 2 not-ok = the pre-existing #18 cc_parse_subject cases only. No new failures.

Nicely done — and the symmetry you noted is real: slice 3 applied the lesson forward (OUTCOME tests) while slice 2.5 closes it retroactively. The gap is shut in both directions. → your self-merge. On to slice 4 (post_bump_hooks).
