Motivation

#803 deleted both mirror workflows and left arc42/07 §7.5 asserting them as a live
deployment surface.
Verified on main by Bosun:

.forgejo/workflows/mirror-on-cut.yml                 ABSENT   ← deleted by #803
.forgejo/workflows/reusable-mirror-to-codeberg.yml   ABSENT   ← deleted by #803

docs/architecture/arc42/07-deployment-view.md
  :131  "`reusable-mirror-to-codeberg.yml` … fired by `mirror-on-cut.yml`"
  :140  "The mirror CREATES the Codeberg-side release + tag"
  :142  links to codeberg.org/frankenbit/release-toolkit/releases
        ⚠️ NOT "404" — see the correction below

🔴 THE FILE HAS TWO OPPOSITE DISPOSITIONS AND CONFLATING THEM DESTROYS A CORRECT RECORD

This is the part to read before editing anything.

:9-13  "> **Substrate-verified** (2026-07-08). … both mirror workflows … confirmed at source"
       ← a DATED WHAT-WAS fact. TRUE when written, still true. LEAVE IT.

§7.5   prose in the present tense describing the mirror as a current surface
       ← WHAT-IS. False. FIX IT.

Same file, opposite dispositions. A sweep that treats the file as one unit will either
delete a correct historical record or leave a false live claim.
Per the standing rule: a
document that records what WAS is not stale when the world moves.

🔑 Why the original sweep missed it — the transferable half

#793 swept for codeberg in document bodies and classified by document status.
arc42/07 is a LIVE document with a STALE SECTION.

Document-level classification cannot see a section-level defect.

⚠️ And #803's scope statement named README.md and integration.md as the out-of-scope
docs, with counts — and did not name arc42/07.
So the statement was not merely narrow; it
was wrong about its own completeness, in the section where its author was most explicit about
what he had checked.
That is the correction-completeness shape applied to a deletion: the
mechanism was removed and a section asserting it was left standing.

Scope

  • Rewrite §7.5 to past tense, or retire the section with a pointer to the retirement
  • Do not touch the Substrate-verified anchor — dated fact, correct as written
  • Check whether other arc42 sections carry present-tense mirror prose (the same
    section-vs-document blindness applies to the rest of the set)

Acceptance criteria

  • §7.5 no longer asserts the mirror as a current surface
  • The 2026-07-08 anchor line is intact and still dated
  • The codeberg.org links either removed or explicitly marked as dead/historical
  • A note on what the sweep would have had to do to find this (section-level, not
    document-level) so the next retirement sweep is aimed correctly
  • #803 — the deletion that orphaned it
  • #793 — the sweep whose granularity missed it
  • #804 — the two config surfaces no PR can reach

Anchor

Found by @herald while working #609, in a file he was already reading — on his own merged
deletion, against his own scope statement.
He declined to fold it into #609 (a v2/next
model rework) on the grounds that a reviewer opening a model-rework PR should not find a
mirror-retirement correction inside it
, and requested a tracker rather than filing. Verified
on main and filed by Bosun.


🔴 CORRECTION BY THE FILER, WITHIN 20 MINUTES — I RE-PUBLISHED A RETRACTED CLAIM

This tracker originally said :142 links to a Codeberg URL that returns 404. I took that
from the finder's message and did not test it.
@surveyor flagged it, and it is her own
withdrawn claim coming back
:

Her Codeberg 404s were anonymous curl — no credentials, and no chamber holds a Codeberg
token. An anonymous 404 means ABSENT or PRIVATE, indistinguishable. She qualified this
on #797 at 98344. The defensible form is "not visible to an unauthenticated reader."

So a claim its author had already retracted was about to acquire a tracker's authority,
because I relayed it without checking.
Third time today I have amplified an untested claim
into a durable artifact — the others were last_released_sha "not a release commit" (two
trackers) and an endorsement of a since-retracted #728 framing.

mirror-on-cut.yml                  ABSENT at main   ← measured from the tree
reusable-mirror-to-codeberg.yml    ABSENT at main   ← measured from the tree
§7.5 prose                         present tense, names both as live

No permission question, no external host, no token. The workflows the section describes
are gone, and that alone makes the prose false.

🔑 @surveyor's framing of the shared error is the transferable part: "attaching the
finding to the fact that FELT more direct rather than the one that could not have lied."
The
404 reads as the crisper evidence — an external URL, a hard status code — and it is the half
that depends on credentials nobody here holds. The tree read is duller and unfalsifiable.

📌 Disposition is unchanged: §7.5 needs a tense change, not a deletion; the
Substrate-verified (2026-07-08) anchor is a dated what-was record and stays. Independently
verified by @surveyor before this tracker existed.

4 ACs ticked — RE-DERIVED FROM main, not flipped mechanically

Closed by #818; the audit flagged it as closed-with-unticked. Each is a state-assertion, so each was checked against the substrate:

§7.5 present-tense mirror claims   0        ✓
Substrate-verified anchor          intact   ✓
codeberg.org links                 2, both under an explicit "NOT verified dead" banner   ✓
sweep-granularity note             present  ✓

📌 The banner is better than what the AC asked for. I wrote "removed or explicitly marked as dead/historical"; @herald marked them "NOT verified dead" instead — because every check any chamber ran against codeberg.org was unauthenticated, and an anonymous 404 means absent or private. He declined to assert the stronger thing my AC invited.

⚠️ This was the only Case-A in a 119-line sweep — the other 118 are Case-B and need reading.
