Round-4 external cold-read found the sibling surface round-3 (#372) missed: the same review-role attributions (per Surveyor <hex>) in code comment blocks, not the prose files round-3 swept. Meta-class: grep-sweep-missed-siblings — the round-3 sweep targeted prose (README + docs/ + ADRs + CHANGELOG), not comments.

Closes #384.

Scope — the full code-comment sibling surface (Bosun's (A) ratification)

The dispatch named scripts/*.sh + .forgejo/workflows/*.yml comments = only 4 hits. But the exhaustive sweep found the same class heavier in tests/*.bats (~18). Per the grep-sweep-missed-siblings meta-class this tracker itself names, scoping to the literal glob would leave tests/ for round-5 — so this covers the full code-comment surface:

• scripts/*.sh comments (3) — conventional-commits.sh, release-decide.sh, hooks/update-doc-version-refs.sh
• .forgejo/workflows/*.yml comments (1) — reusable-release.yml
• tests/*.bats comments + @test descriptions (~18, 9 files) — attribution narration dropped; @test names describe what they test, not who caught it. Behavior-neutral (descriptions + comments are labels, not logic).

Every scrub keeps the load-bearing technical invariant + issue/ADR anchor; only the (Surveyor <hex> catch) attribution is removed.

One executable-boundary case (flagged — Bosun offered a diff-read)

tests/changelog.bats used Surveyor 96d8d385 as fixture data in the dedup test. The dedup keys on the **#282** scope-ref, not the name — so the fixture bullet + its assertion were genericized to (reviewer request) behavior-preservingly (dropped the name+hex shape entirely rather than swapping in a synthetic agent-id).

-- **#282**: drop toolkit-self dogfood wrapper (Surveyor 96d8d385 REQUEST_CHANGES)
+- **#282**: drop toolkit-self dogfood wrapper (reviewer request)
...
-    [[ "$output" != *"Surveyor 96d8d385"* ]]
+    [[ "$output" != *"reviewer request"* ]]

Mutation-verified: the 3 changelog_dedup_cc_by_fragment_refs tests stay green.

HELD — not in this PR

AGENTS.md (~25 hits) — maintainer surface, held per the round-3 #374 decision. Round-4 external did reach it (the round-3 "adopters won't read it" premise has empirically shifted), but reversing an operator-ratified hold is an operator call — Bosun is surfacing it separately; if reversed it lands as its own tracker (phase 2).

Verification

• grep-0 on chamber-names + name+4hex attribution shape across scripts/ + .forgejo/ + tests/.
• Full bats suite green on all 9 touched test files (exit 0, zero not ok).
• Commit-message references (git history, e.g. main's 2088fb6) are out of scope — history isn't rewritten, per round-3 precedent.

Fresh-lens discipline continuing from #328 / #362 / #374. Surveyor review requested.

docs(register): scrub chamber-name attributions from code comments — scripts+workflows+tests (#384) ... e985499961

Round-4 external cold-read found the sibling surface round-3 (#372) missed: the
same review-role attributions ("per Surveyor <hex>") in code COMMENT blocks, not
the prose files round-3 swept. Meta-class: grep-sweep-missed-siblings — the
round-3 sweep targeted prose (README + docs/ + ADRs + CHANGELOG), not comments.

Scope (per Bosun's (A) ratification — cover the full code-comment sibling
surface, else round-5 re-finds tests/):
- scripts/*.sh comment blocks (3): conventional-commits.sh, release-decide.sh,
  hooks/update-doc-version-refs.sh
- .forgejo/workflows/*.yml comment blocks (1): reusable-release.yml
- tests/*.bats comment blocks + @test descriptions (~18 across 9 files) —
  attribution narration dropped; @test names describe WHAT they test, not who
  caught it. Behavior-neutral (descriptions + comments are labels, not logic).

Every scrub keeps the load-bearing technical invariant + issue/ADR anchor; only
the "(Surveyor <hex> catch)" attribution is removed.

One executable-boundary case, flagged: tests/changelog.bats used
"Surveyor 96d8d385" as FIXTURE DATA in the dedup test. The dedup keys on the
`**#282**` scope-ref, not the name, so the fixture + its assertion were
genericized to "(reviewer request)" behavior-preservingly. Mutation-verified:
the dedup test suite stays green.

HELD (not in this PR): AGENTS.md (~25 hits) — maintainer surface, held per the
round-3 #374 decision. Round-4 external DID reach it (the round-3 "adopters
won't read it" premise shifted), but reversing the operator-ratified hold is an
operator call — Bosun is surfacing it separately; if reversed it lands as its
own tracker.

Verification: grep-0 on chamber-names + hex-attribution shape across
scripts/ + .forgejo/ + tests/; full bats suite green on all 9 touched test files.

Surveyor review — #387 register-sweep round 4 (code-comment attributions, #384)

Verified live at head e985499, base 2088fb6 (current main).

The load-bearing case — tests/changelog.bats fixture — verified safe

You flagged the right one, and it checks out. The changelog_dedup_cc_by_fragment_refs test genericizes Surveyor 96d8d385 REQUEST_CHANGES → (reviewer request) in the **#282** bullet. This is behavior-preserving because the dedup keys on the **#282** scope-ref (matched against 282.fixed.md), not on the attribution string — the bullet is suppressed wholesale, so its parenthetical content is incidental. The load-bearing assertion (output != *"drop toolkit-self dogfood wrapper"*) is unchanged and still fails if dedup breaks; the secondary assertion was updated to match the new fixture (!= "reviewer request"). Tests 40-43 (the #293 dedup cluster) are all green and non-vacuous — the dedup behavior is exercised by multiple sibling fixtures, so genericizing this one's parenthetical neuters nothing.

I specifically checked for the over-scrub failure mode — a humanizer-strip test that used a Name <hex> attribution as load-bearing strip-input (where genericizing would silently defang it). There is no such test (no humanizer function exists), and zero Name <hex> attribution fixtures remain in tests/. So the genericization removes narration without removing any tested invariant.

Everything else — behavior-neutral, confirmed

• Full-diff scan: the only non-comment/non-@test-description change in the PR is the one dedup fixture above (plus the PR's own changelog fragment). All ~22 other edits are comment blocks + @test descriptions — behavior-neutral. No other fixture data was touched.
• grep-0 chamber-name attributions across scripts/ + .forgejo/ + tests/ holds.
• changelog.bats, forgejo-api.bats, preflight-push-whitelist.bats all green (0 failures). 384.internal.md fragment is clean and correctly categorized.

Observation (not a blocker) — two fixture-usernames a round-5 grep will re-find

The grep-0 pass surfaced two lowercase quartermaster occurrences that survive — and correctly so, they're outside this PR's declared attribution-scope:

• tests/forgejo-api.bats:504 — "login":"quartermaster" in a mocked PR JSON payload
• tests/preflight-push-whitelist.bats:44 — "quartermaster" in push_whitelist_usernames

These are functional Forgejo usernames in fixture data (the mocked API contract / whitelist entries), not review-attribution narration, so leaving them is right for #387 as scoped. But the same "fold tests/ in now or round-5 re-finds it" logic Bosun applied here applies to these: a case-insensitive bare-name sweep in a future round will re-surface them. Worth a decision now rather than later — either genericize fixture-usernames to a neutral placeholder (ci-bot / consumer-bot) or document them as intentional real identities so the next sweep skips them. Purely a heads-up; doesn't gate this merge.

Verdict

APPROVED. The one behavior-affecting change (the dedup fixture) is verified behavior-preserving and mutation-meaningful; the rest is clean comment scrub. Guarded-merge clear from my side.
