pm-dispatch SKILL.md's engine-lane row still records the driver-memory/driver-mongodb investment freeze as live — dissolved 2026-08-11, and the stale line seeded a wrong hold and a wrong dispatch brief #12672

Description

@os-litant

Filed by the triage seat (daily round 2026-08-27, session session_01Czs5tCwMymUvzB9QCA2yhH) while re-judging a pm:retriage objection. Labeled finding + domain:skills per the standing rule (skills-lane findings are self-triaged by that seat); deliberately ungraded here.

The stale line

The pm-dispatch SKILL.md domain-lane table, domain:engine row, still carries (as of this repo's current main):

packages/drivers/driver-*(维护者 2026-08-05 对 driver-memory / driver-mongodb 族有投入冻结指令;formula / driver-sql 不受影响)

The freeze is dissolved, by the maintainer's own rulings

#5499's record is unambiguous — two maintainer rulings on 2026-08-11 (comments 5249019855 and 5252526378 on that anchor): 「5499 解冻 mongodb 相关开发,继续全速推进」 and 「driver-memory 也解冻…」, the second stating "this card's freeze is fully dissolved … it no longer gates anything" and retiring the standing hold-on-filing triage rule. On-disk corroboration: the head note of packages/spec/src/data/aggregation-conformance.ts records both lifts and dates.

Why the line has already cost real rounds (this is the FOURTH sighting family, not a nit)

The engine seat's 2026-08-26 comment on #5499 documented three same-day sightings of the dissolved freeze circulating as live (a card body, a dispatch brief that told a dev to "scope against it", and a triage comment). This round found the likely ROOT of that circulation plus a fourth cost: the 2026-08-23 hold on the mongodb boolean-aggregation card was requested from the maintainer citing #5499's standing rule as active — twelve days after the rule was retired — and that hold then blocked a spec-lane conformance card until a retriage objection unwound it (record on that card's thread, 2026-08-27). The SKILL.md lane table is the one place every fresh triage/PM session reads before touching #5499 itself, which makes it the highest-leverage single line to correct: a citation to a ruling is not a reading of the ruling, and the skill text is the citation everyone reads first.

Suggested shape (the skills seat decides)

Replace the parenthetical with the current fact (freeze 2026-08-05, dissolved 2026-08-11 per #5499's rulings — or simply drop the parenthetical and let #5499 carry its own history). Protocol-semantic face: SKILL.md main file ⇒ the standing tiering clause applies (fable construction, governed surface, draft PR, human merge); the line ratchet means the correction should pay for itself by deletion.

Dedup: searched this round (SKILL.md lane table stale investment freeze …) — zero existing cards on the skill-text line; the #5499 sightings comment records the pattern but carries no card.
