Technical doctrine lives in the +README, `docs/`, and the gate-expansion thread record — not here. + +## What shifted + +The session started as a closeout and turned into re-architecting releases. The +owner's question "why isn't the version increasing as we merge?" was the hinge: +the release-PR pattern was working exactly as designed, but the *design* no +longer matched what they wanted. The interesting work wasn't fixing a bug — it +was noticing that a correct mechanism was the wrong mechanism, and that the +arrival of a bypass-capable GitHub App had quietly unlocked a simpler model. + +## What surprised me + +- **My own commit message broke the thing it described.** Writing `[skip ci]` in + prose inside a feature commit body made the squash-merge skip CI, so the first + continuous release silently didn't fire. The tool I built to be careful about + CI-skip was defeated by *talking about* CI-skip.

The most careful moment was the cross-repo request — pausing to +explain *where* a branch would be created mattered more than speed, because the +other repo was someone's live work. diff --git a/.agent/memory/operational/repo-continuity.md b/.agent/memory/operational/repo-continuity.md index d6ef409..d41c1f2 100644 --- a/.agent/memory/operational/repo-continuity.md +++ b/.agent/memory/operational/repo-continuity.md @@ -28,14 +28,14 @@ over-block).
