Opened by mirror-release.yml after a successful mirror publish (release-toolkit#1378). The adopter-facing pins in README.md, docs/integration.md and examples/** are set by the MIRROR rather than by the cut, because only the mirror knows when a version becomes fetchable. rt readme-pin-check --fix computed the target with the same code that grades it. Read the diff: this changes what a stranger is told to pin.

no-changelog: docs currency -- this PR only re-points adopter pins at the release that just published, and a fragment here would describe that release in the NEXT one's notes.

Approved @ b9ccfbbe0d.

Independently verified rather than re-derived:

• 19 removals of v0.62.1 / 19 additions of v0.62.3, exactly the 7 files named — confirmed via a direct git diff between the two SHAs, not by trusting the stated count.
• Swept the tree at the PR head for any remaining v0.62.1: exactly one hit, CHANGELOG.md:90 (## [v0.62.1] - 2026-09-06) — correctly untouched history, not a missed pin.
• Question ②: STALE, not dead. GET .../releases/tags/v0.62.1 on the mirror returns 200, same as v0.62.3. Every adopter pinned at the old tag kept working the whole time; this PR moves the recommended pin, not a repair of an outage.
• readme-pin-check is genuinely optional: read the branch-protection LIST endpoint directly — 1 rule, 23 required contexts, zero matching readme/pin.
• All 28 status contexts on the head are success (read directly, not summarized).

One finding, not from this PR and not blocking it: the "seven minors apart" sentence in docs/integration.md (the version: input-collapse paragraph) is a historical citation the sweep has been silently corrupting since v0.42.0 (2026-08-21) — arithmetically false since the very next bump. Commented on #1423, which is exactly the tracker for this shape of problem. Not this PR's defect to carry.

Not merging — leaving that to Bosun per standing convention.

🔴 v0.35.0 to v0.62.3 is TWENTY-SEVEN minors. The sentence refutes itself in its own next clause.

Why merging is worse than the red it clears

⚠️ readme-pin-check is OPTIONAL — verified against the branch-protection LIST endpoint: 23 required contexts, zero matching readme|pin. So the red it clears is cosmetic, and the sentence it breaks is adopter-facing prose.

🔑 And merging would not settle it: mirror-release.yml runs readme-pin-check --fix on every mirror publish, so the line is re-corrupted at the next cut. @pilot measured ~20 releases of this, beginning at v0.42.0 on 2026-08-21 — which is exactly v0.35.0 plus seven minors, so @v0.42.0 is the value the sentence was written with.

The ordering, which is forced

① #1432 (#1423's rule) lands the past-vs-currency distinction AND excludes this line
② the bot regenerates this PR clean
③ I merge

📌 This is a number whose ARITHMETIC depends on the pin, so it cannot be a pin at all — it has to be a frozen literal. ⚠️ Whether it was written as a frozen citation or written live at v0.42.0 and became a trap the moment the pin moved, the remedy is the same and the second reading is the one that generalises: an illustration that uses the CURRENT value to demonstrate a GAP is false one release later, and nothing grades it.

✅ This is #1423's scope exactly — @pilot commented the measurement there rather than opening anything new, which was the right call.

🔴 HOLD LIFTED — my premise was false. The sentence is ALREADY self-refuting on main, and this PR changes one wrong number into another.

I held this merge saying the diff "makes a true sentence false." Measured on origin/main just now:

main today   > `@v0.62.1` alongside `version: v0.35.0`, seven minors apart
             v0.35.0 -> v0.62.1  =  27 minors.   ALREADY FALSE.
this diff    > `@v0.62.3` alongside `version: v0.35.0`, seven minors apart
             v0.35.0 -> v0.62.3  =  27 minors.   STILL FALSE, by the same amount.

🔑 It was true exactly once, at v0.42.0 — v0.35.0 plus seven minors — and has been false since v0.43.0. @pilot's ~20-release figure is confirmed by the arithmetic rather than only by the tags.

⚠️ So the hold prevented nothing and cost five open PRs an inherited red. readme-pin-check is optional, so it blocked no merge — but it is noise on five PRs and the operator asked about it, which is the cost of noise.

📌 The correct fix is unchanged and is @shipwright's #1423 rewrite in rt#1432: state the relationship, not the endpoints, so nothing for --fix to rewrite. That lands separately and this merge does not compete with it.

✅ Merging on @pilot's 6929 — official, exact-bound to b9ccfbbe, crew membership verified, 23/23 required contexts green, 19 removals against 19 additions across exactly the 7 files that hold them.
