§7 lead "In progress · Phase 1a landed 2026-05-08" was stale —
file header (current) says "Phase 1a (ForkScore) landed
2026-05-08; Phase 1b (consensus paper) landed 2026-05-10; Phase
1c (branch-set persistence) remains proposed-not-opened."
Refresh to match file header so the index claim and the body
section are saying the same thing.
§7 Phase 1a body referenced "tests/test_v8_fork_score.py — 25
cases" on two counts of drift:
1. **Filename stale**: file was renamed to
`tests/test_substrate_fork_score.py` in `a4058a4` 2026-05-10
under the v-prefix-retirement convention (substrate-paper
version vs schema-version disambiguation). The original path
no longer resolves.
2. **Count + scope conflated**: 25 cases at the time, but the
surface has since split into two test files:
- `tests/test_fork_score.py` (18 tests) pins the pure
ScoredFork dataclass + scoring contract.
- `tests/test_substrate_fork_score.py` (27 tests) pins the
`arborist substrate score` CLI surface.
Refresh: name both files explicitly + AUTOCOUNT-tag each count
so future drift fires (#000044 discipline). Note the rename
provenance for future readers walking the design log.
Six in-progress tickets audited for §-status drift in today's
sweep wave:
#000034 §7 lead stale (now refreshed in 952abc5)
#000035 §7 lead clean
#000036 §7 + closure stale (refreshed in 952abc5)
#000037 §20 + §17.1 stale (refreshed in 3b30126 + 952abc5)
#000025 §11 lead stale (refreshed in 3b30126)
#000012 §7 lead stale (THIS COMMIT)
5 of 6 had body-section drift. Pattern is consistent: file
header is the load-bearing surface fox updates; body sections
are point-in-time prose snapshots that freeze at landing time.
Sweep-on-amend is the right discipline; this commit closes the
last in-progress ticket §-status drift surface for today.
#000006 (rolling research log) and #000044 (closed today,
retroactive design log) excluded from sweep — different shapes.
Closed tickets prior to today excluded entirely per #000044 §5
discipline ("closed-ticket point-in-time snapshots stay
UNtagged / refreshing them changes archival meaning").
