Promotes #994 (issues #988, #989, #990) to main.

What

Review

PR #994 review loop: qodo-code-review raised one real finding (the
keeper skill's stale three-section enumeration), fixed and resolved
in b626b25. Copilot's own review account is in the fleet's known
repo-wide quota-exhausted state (confirmed live on every request this
round), so this proceeded on qodo's coverage per standing precedent.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation

    • Updated Copilot instruction guidance to include the required “When in Doubt” section.
    • Updated synchronization instructions and baseline requirements accordingly.
    • Added guidance for safely retiring outdated local paths during resynchronization.
    • Clarified .NET line-ending governance across derived repositories.
    • Refreshed divergence reporting and the current stale-copy inventory.
  • Chores

    • Recorded approved repository-specific configuration differences.
    • Refreshed internal skill metadata and synchronization records.

#994)
Fixes#988, #989, #990.
Three small, independent, verified findings from today's
HomeAutomation-Config resync audit, bundled together since they are all
mechanical spec/doc-accuracy corrections found by the same audit run.
## Changes
- **`.editorconfig`** (#988): reworded the comment above the `.NET`-only
block so it states the whole-file carry model instead of contradicting
it. It previously said a non-.NET repo "may drop from here down," which
disagreed with `CODESTYLE.md` "General": a repo keeps the whole file,
including inert language-specific blocks, rather than trimming it.
- **`spec/files.json`** (#989): added `"When in Doubt"` to the declared
`sections` array for `.github/copilot-instructions.md`. The hub's own
canonical file carries that heading (right after the "Disproved Claims"
ledger), but it wasn't declared, so `spec/audit.py`'s undeclared-section
advisory flagged it as drift on every repo carrying the file verbatim.
- **`spec/divergences.json`** (#990): added two `accepted` gap entries,
for `.github/actionlint.yaml` and `.github/actions/validate/action.yml`.
Both are HomeAutomation-Config's own content at paths the hub also hosts
(a path collision, not a carry), the same pattern as the existing
`accepted` entries for `LICENSE`, `TODO.md`, `.husky/pre-commit`, and
`scripts/README.md` in the same `gaps` array.
## Verification
- `python3 -c "import json; json.load(...)"` on both edited spec files
- `python3 spec/validate.py` (clean)
- `python3 scripts/prose_lint.py --diff origin/develop` (clean)
- `python3 scripts/repo_gate.py` (clean)
- `python3 spec/audit.py --selftest` (pass)
- `python3 -m unittest discover -s scripts/tests` (846 tests, pass)
- pre-commit hooks on the commit itself (pass)
Note: "Fixes#988, #989, #990" won't auto-close the issues on this merge
since it targets `develop`; they close on the next `develop -> main`
promotion, per fleet convention.

High-Level Assessment

The direct declarative corrections are the best approach: they preserve strict fleet auditing while accurately describing required sections and intentional repository-specific overrides. Broadly weakening section or gap checks would hide genuine drift and is not warranted.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds When in Doubt to the tracked Copilot instruction sections, updates resync guidance, records retired-path compatibility checks, refreshes synchronization metadata, and updates divergence records.

Changes

Copilot instruction synchronization

Layer / File(s)Summary
Instruction contract and skill guidance
.agents/skills/..., .claude-plugin/fleet-skills/..., .github/skills/..., spec/files.json
The instruction contract and skill copies now define four named sections, including When in Doubt.
Resync compatibility guidance
RESYNC.md
Resync guidance now requires checking exemption-commit ancestry and updating the pinned validation workflow before deleting a retired path.
Repository synchronization records
.claude-plugin/fleet-skills/.source-digest, .editorconfig, spec/divergences.json, reports/divergences.md
The source digest, .NET configuration comment, accepted divergence ledger, and divergence report now reflect the current repository state.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to a6461

This change updates repository guidance and synchronization metadata without altering production behavior, but two documentation inconsistencies remain: the resynchronization lookup may use stale local history, and conflicting carrier lists may omit fleet work. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded risks.

Comment threadspec/divergences.json
…#995)
Fixes#987
## What
Adds an explicit RESYNC.md section 4 step: before retiring a
locally-carried hub-hosted path
that has a matching `HUB_HOSTED` prose-gate exemption, verify that the
repository's pinned
`validate-task.yml` SHA is at or after the hub commit that added that
exemption. If the pin
predates it, bump the pin first, in the same resync, before deleting the
local copy.
## Why
`spec/divergences.json`'s `retire` disposition entries get paired with a
matching `HUB_HOSTED`
exemption entry in `dead_path_findings()`
(`.github/actions/prose-gate/prose_lint.py`), usually
landed in the same commit (`#861` / `e31d3fc` is the example this issue
is built from). Nothing
previously kept a downstream repository's own pinned `validate-task.yml`
SHA in sync with a
`HUB_HOSTED` addition landed after that repository's pin was last
bumped. A repository that
retires its local copy of an exempted path while its pin still predates
the exemption hits a
`dead-path` finding in its own CI at the promotion-PR gate, for a path
that is already exempted
on current hub `main`, just not at the repository's pinned SHA.
## Scope decision: RESYNC.md only, no `spec/audit.py` check
The issue asks me to judge whether this also warrants a mechanical
`spec/audit.py` advisory. I
looked closely and decided against it, for reasons specific to this
check rather than general
reluctance to add checks:
- A genuine mechanical version needs to (1) locate whichever workflow
file in the target
repository pins `validate-task.yml` (`spec/audit.py`'s `check_interface`
only verifies the
literal string `"validate-task.yml"` appears in a job's code, it never
extracts or compares the
`@<sha>` pin value itself, see `spec/audit.py:1504-1550` and its
`requireTokensInJob`
contract), (2) extract that 40-hex SHA, (3) derive the hub commit that
added the matching
`HUB_HOSTED` entry (via `git log -S` on
`.github/actions/prose-gate/prose_lint.py`, a
literal-string match with no structural guarantee it names only the
intended entry), and (4)
run `git merge-base --is-ancestor` between the two SHAs against this
checkout's own history.
Nothing like step (4) exists anywhere in `spec/audit.py` today. The
closest existing "pin-based"
check, `classify_branch_drift`, compares this same repository's own
`main` and `develop` trees,
it never parses or reasons about a downstream repository's action pin.
- Step (4) also needs the pinned commit to actually be a reachable
object in the hub checkout
running the audit. That holds for an ordinary full clone (the normal
case for an interactive
`spec/audit.py <Repo>` run), but the `validate` job that runs
`spec/audit.py --selftest` in CI
checks out with no `fetch-depth: 0` override (only the `lint` job does,
for the prose gate's
own dead-path history requirement), so the same mechanism would behave
differently depending on
where it runs.
- The failure this guards against is narrow: it only bites a repository
whose resync happens to
land inside the window between a hub `HUB_HOSTED` addition and that
repository's own next pin
bump. A one-command manual check (`git log -1 --format=%H -S'<path>' --
.github/actions/prose-gate/prose_lint.py`, compared against the pin
already visible in the
target repository's own workflow file) closes the same gap at a fraction
of the risk of a new,
first-of-its-kind ancestry-check mechanism added to an already-large
audit script.
RESYNC.md section 5 already documents several categories the audit
deliberately leaves to a
manual read rather than mechanizing, so a documented procedure step is
consistent with the
file's own established pattern, not a gap unique to this fix.
## Verification
Ran the full documented local gate set from `OPERATIONS.md` "Run the
gates the way CI runs them"
(ruff, mypy, `unittest discover -s scripts/tests`, `spec/audit.py
--selftest`,
`gh-write-guard.py --selftest`, `test_install.py`, `build_dist.py
--check`, `repo_gate.py`,
`prose_lint.py` default and `charset-unknown` passes, JSON validation,
`spec/validate.py`) plus
`scripts/docker_lint.py` (markdownlint, cspell, actionlint,
editorconfig-checker, shellcheck,
shfmt, PSScriptAnalyzer). All green, no findings against the changed
file.

Comment threadRESYNC.md Outdated
Follow-up to #994: \`reports/divergences.md\` is generated from
\`spec/divergences.json\` by \`spec/fidelity_honesty.py --report\` and
had not been regenerated after #994 added \`accepted\` entries for
\`.github/actionlint.yaml\` and \`.github/actions/validate/action.yml\`,
leaving the checked-in report stale.
Caught by CodeRabbit on the develop -> main promotion PR (#996), which
cannot carry the fix directly since its diff is develop against main.
Landing it here so #996 picks it up on develop's next head.
Ran \`python3 spec/fidelity_honesty.py --report\` (read-only against
GitHub, writes only the local report file) and committed the regenerated
\`reports/divergences.md\`, which now documents both new dispositions.

Comment threadreports/divergences.md
Follow-up to #995 (fixing #987): the promotion PR's CodeRabbit review
caught a real bug in the new RESYNC.md procedure step. `git log main -1
...` reads local `main`, which a bare `git fetch` does not fast-forward,
so the exemption-commit lookup could read a stale answer on a reused hub
checkout. Reads `origin/main` instead, the ref a fetch actually updates.
