[finding] #13646's fix routed a MIXED file to merge=os-regen — the driver keeps one side whole and drops the other's hand-written prose, and the census gate cannot see the loss #14064

Closed

Description

@zhuangjianguo

Filed by the domain:engine lane PM on behalf of the #13578 merge seat, which measured this live but could not file it (its GitHub search quota was exhausted, and filing without a dedup pass is banned). Dedup run here with a firing control: the query returned 3 results — #13646, #12877, #5370 — all closed, none covering this.

⛔ Recording only. No severity asserted, routing is triage's.

⭐ This is #13646's fix, working exactly as asked, producing a new class

#13646 (closed) said: "content/docs/permissions/system-context.mdx is a generated anchor table that 12 of the last 20 main commits rewrite — and it is the one such artifact with no merge=os-regen routing." The routing was added, and it does stop the anchor-table churn it was filed about.

⚠️ But that page is not a generated artifact. It is a MIXED file — hand-written prose plus generated anchors — and the driver's contract does not fit a mixed file.

What the driver actually does, measured during the #13578 merge

merge=os-regen does not text-merge. It takes one side whole and discards the other whole, then defers to the generator. Observed on this merge:

  • git merge-tree (run before HEAD carried the routing) predicted a normal text conflict in that path.
  • The real git merge — once HEAD had merged main's .gitattributes — reported zero conflicts, printed "not text-merged — it is generated", and kept our side whole.
  • Main's discarded side was not just anchors: it carried an 18-line prose block, "What the enforced declarations row counts", and raised that row's value 21 → 22.
  • node scripts/check-system-context-census.mjs --fix only re-anchors line numbers. It cannot regenerate prose. So "our side + --fix" left the gate RED on [declared-count] 21 vs 22 — and would have deleted the 18-line prose block outright.

⇒ The seat resolved it by writing main's blob into the path (byte-proved against fa4e087fe9) and then running --fix, producing a true union — verified as such, and with the gate's own totals unchanged from main's green control (109 sites / 145 anchors / 27 non-read).

⭐⭐ Why the near-miss is the finding, not the merge

The count is what caught this. The prose is not census-derived, so the gate is blind to it.

⇒ Had main's edit been prose-only, the driver would have dropped it, --fix would have been a no-op, and check-system-context-census would have reported OK over silently deleted documentation. No conflict, no red, no reviewer signal.

⚠️ This falsifies the safety rationale recorded in scripts/regen-artifacts.mjs, which argues the deferral is safe because check-system-context-census re-derives the census from the tree on every PR. That holds for census-derived numbers — and it is exactly what fired here. It does not hold for hand-written prose on the same page.

The escape hatch already exists and is already documented

.gitattributes carries the correct category for this shape: NOT_DRIVER_MANAGED, described in its own words as "hand-written. Those conflicts are for a human."

⇒ The question for triage is whether this page belongs in that category, or whether the routing should stay and the census gate grow a prose-integrity check. ⛔ I am not choosing — both have costs, and the churn #13646 measured is real and would come back under the first option.

What this does NOT claim

  • ⛔ No documentation is currently lost. The one live instance was caught, by luck of the count travelling with the prose.
  • ⛔ I did not sweep for other mixed files routed to merge=os-regen. Whether this page is the only one in that shape is unmeasured, and it is the first thing worth measuring — the class matters more than the instance.
  • ⛔ I assert no severity.

Adjacent, and evidence this driver has form

Both closed, both the same family of "driver silently takes the wrong side":

Refs: #13646 (the fix that created the shape) · #13578 / PR #13829 (where it was measured) · #12877 · #5370.

    PM 补记 —— ⛔ 我在原卡里引错了安全性理由。真正的理由在 .gitattributes,而且它更强,被证伪的方式也更精确

    domain:engine 车道 PM,session session_01F3jdziLbAPGeceVNmSox5L。原卡把安全性理由归给 scripts/regen-artifacts.mjs(「20 个 main commit 里有 12 个重写它」)。⇒ 那不是它被路由的理由。 真理由写在 .gitattributes 第 80–96 行,我立卡时没读到那一段。⛔ 更正在此。

    ① 路由的真实理由,比我说的强得多 —— 而且我不推翻它

    a generated file:line anchor table whose correct merged values are on NEITHER side of a conflict(在 #13625 上实测:五个冲突锚点的正解是 4408/5771/6019/6382/6575,而 branch 侧是 4407/5770/…、main 侧是 4284/5647/…),so no text merge and no hand merge can reach them.

    ⇒ ⭐ 对「锚点」那一半,正解在两侧都不存在 —— 文本合并结构上不可能给出正确答案,人工合并也不能。⛔ 这不是一个「本可以文本合并却图省事」的决定,它是被测量逼出来的。 我原卡把它描述成「前提就错在那里」是不准确的。路由这个文件的决定是对的。

    ② 被证伪的是另一句 —— 而且证伪比我原来写的更干净

    .gitattributes:88-91 是本卡真正的对手,逐字:

    This is also the row where the header's own warning is answered rather than accepted: deferring is safe here because scripts/check-system-context-census.mjs still reddens on every PR … it RE-DERIVES the census from the tree, so it catches the stale anchors a merge leaves behind even when nothing conflicted.

    ⭐⭐ 这句话是对的,但它只覆盖了会被丢弃的两半里的一半。 那道门重新推导的是普查(锚点);它不重新推导散文,因为散文不是从任何东西推导出来的。⇒ 「deferring is safe here」的论证域是锚点半边,而驱动整取一侧时丢的可以是散文半边。 ⛔ 论证与风险面不重合。

    ⇒ 这也解释了 #13829 那一轮为什么只是侥幸被抓住:main 丢掉的 18 行散文之所以暴露,纯粹因为同时有一个锚点计数 21→22 动了。⚠️ 若那次编辑是纯散文的,每一道门都会是绿的。

    ③ 同一段注释自己已经在别处做出了正确的区分 —— 只是没做到这个文件上

    ⭐ 这是本卡现在最有力的一点:同一个注释块,对至少三个同类文件做对了「混合文件不能整取一侧」这个判断:

    文件 注释怎么说
    packages/spec/src/migrations/registry.ts 「the file stays out of this list anyway, because it is now MIXED: a driver that deferred it whole would resolve its still-hand-written prose by regenerating, which loses an edit rather than a merge」
    严格性台账 「Note it is the counts file, not the ledger — the ledger's prose is hand-written and must never be resolved by regenerating」
    liveness 「state-counts.md is the numbers and is driver-managed; README.md is the Notes prose … and is NOT. Regenerating a Note would fabricate a verdict」
    skill docs / AI skills guide 「are MIXED(a spliced block in hand-written prose, so a deferral would launder the prose)」

    ⇒ ⭐ 「混合文件不得整取一侧」在本仓是一条已被反复应用的既定判准。 本卡不提出新原则 —— 它指出 content/docs/permissions/system-context.mdx 是被漏掉的那一个:它同样是散文包着一块生成表,却被按纯生成产物路由了。
    ⚠️ 注释里唯一一次考虑散文,是在目录粒度上(「that directory is 22 hand-written prose pages around one generated one」,所以路由文件而非 content/docs/permissions/**)—— 那一步做对了,但它把这个页面本身当成了「the generated one」。 本卡说的是:它自己也是混合的。

    ④ 复发,不是孤例 —— ⛔ 这是事实,不是我在断言严重度

    02:43 UTC,PR #14036 被合并队列以 MERGE_CONFLICT 退出队列,唯一冲突路径就是这个文件。 距 #13829 那一轮几个小时。本轮的形状还更危险:branch 侧 1 行,main 侧 16 行 ⇒ 若驱动整取 branch 侧,main 落的东西全丢,而门只会告诉你锚点那一半。已按此派了合并席位,并要求它逐段按内容证明两侧散文都在,⛔ 不接受「git merge 退出 0」。

    ⑤ 本卡仍然不选边

    两条补救路线照旧摆在维护者面前,⛔ 我不选:

    • A —— 把该文件移出驱动管辖,进 NOT_DRIVER_MANAGED(注释自己写着那条逃生门:"hand-written. Those conflicts are for a human.")。⚠️ 代价是真实的:按 ① 的实测,锚点正解在两侧都不存在 ⇒ 交给人工会稳定地产生错锚点,只能靠 --fix 兜底。
    • B —— 让驱动对混合文件真正区分处理:生成区重新推导、散文区做文本合并。⚠️ 代价是驱动要能识别区界。

    ⭐ 但 ①+② 合起来把选择题变清楚了:问题不在「该不该路由」(该),而在「路由之后,散文半边由谁保护」(目前无人)。 无论走 A 还是 B,这一句都得有个答案。

    ⭐⭐ 本卡不再是推理了 —— 两条都被直接测出来了,而且驱动丢哪一侧是完全可预测的

    domain:engine 车道 PM,session session_01F3jdziLbAPGeceVNmSox5L。#14036 的合并轮再次撞上同一个文件(几小时内第二次),席位在处理时把本卡的两个待证点做成了实验。我复核并独立复验了其中一条,另有一条我复现不出来,如实记为未复现。

    ① 驱动丢的永远是 incoming 那一侧,即永远是 main —— 源码级确认,⛔ 不是启发式

    我按源码复验:scripts/git-merge-regen.mjs 全文的 fs 写操作只有两处 —— appendFileSync(marker, …)(pending 标记)和 self-test 的夹具。⛔ 它从不写 %A(argv[2],也就是输出文件);它只读 argv[3](%P,路径名)。

    它自己的文档块逐字写着:

    %O %A %B %P — ancestor, ours (also the OUTPUT file), theirs, pathname.
    The content left behind is OURS, chosen only because git pre-fills it there. It is a placeholder, not an answer: correctness comes from the mandatory regeneration.

    ⇒ ⭐ 「取哪一侧」不是内容相关的裁决,是「什么都不写,于是 git 预填的 ours 留下了」。 ⇒ 被丢弃的永远是 theirs = 被合并进来的 main。

    ⚠️ 这条把本卡的风险面锁死了:丢的永远是已落地的工作,⛔ 永远不会是分支自己的。⇒ 一个开着很久的分支,每合并一次 main,就有一次机会静默吃掉 main 在该文件上落的东西,而分支侧永远毫发无伤。

    本轮的字节级证据:git merge 退出 0、零冲突标记,产出 blob 99d8a8ec00 —— 与分支 head 的 blob 逐字节相同。main 的 16 处锚点重指全部缺失(rest-server.ts:1389、:1421、engine.ts:10787、:13876、approval-service.ts:931、share-link-service.ts:423 的 grep 计数均为 0)。⇒ main 侧被整体丢弃,正是本卡预言的形状。 席位随后恢复了 main 侧(blob a514a33271)并重新推导锚点(终值 f6d1f58cdf)。

    ②⭐⭐ 「纯散文丢失会全绿通过」—— 不再是推论,是实测

    席位在合并后的树上删掉一段 3 行、不含任何锚点的散文,先证明改动落盘(needle 出现次数 1→0,blob f6d1f58cdf→0a5bc06b4b,少 3 行),然后跑了十道文档族门:

    check-system-context-census · check:doc-anchors · check:doc-authoring · check:docs-single-h1 · check:corpus-claim-drift · check:docs-audit-scope · check:role-word · check-doc-frontmatter · check-docs-section-name · check-doc-route-spelling

    ⇒ 十道全部 exit 0,跑在一段被静默删除的文档之上。 恢复经字节级证明(blob 回到 f6d1f58cdf,git diff HEAD 空),mutation 带绝对路径 trap。

    ⭐ 而且失效原因是构造性的,不是覆盖不足:该页自己的普查门重新推导的是普查与锚点,⛔ 散文不在这两个人口里的任何一个中。⇒ .gitattributes:88-91 那句 "deferring is safe here because … it RE-DERIVES the census" ——论证为真,但它的论证域与风险面不重合,这一点现在有实验支撑而不只是阅读。

    ③ ⛔ 席位的第三条发现,我复现不出来,如实记为未复现

    席位报告称 "git merge-tree INVOKES the os-regen driver",因而本地冲突预检与合并队列在不安全方向上不一致。我做了判别性探针,结论相反:

    同一对输入(origin/main vs 旧 head b0db873a78),只改 merge.os-regen.driver:
      driver=false (必失败)→ CONFLICT,rc=1
      driver=true  (必成功,留 ours)→ CONFLICT,rc=1      ← ⭐ 若驱动真被调用,这里不该有冲突
      真实驱动 → CONFLICT
    

    ⭐ driver=true 就是这个探针自带的发火对照:若 merge-tree 真的调用驱动,true 会成功并留下 ours ⇒ 该路径不该报冲突。它报了。⇒ git merge-tree 根本没有调用合并驱动(这也符合它作为 plumbing 命令的既有行为)。

    ⇒ ⛔ 我不把这条带进本卡。若席位在别的 git 版本或别的 checkout 上量到过相反结果,需要重新测并附带对照再说。

    ⚠️ 并且 #14036 被 dequeue 的真实原因是平凡的那个,不是驱动:我的预检跑在 main = ada3834add 上,而在它排到队首之前 main 已经动了好几次。⇒ ⭐ 一次干净的 merge-tree 读数,在 main 移动的那一刻就过期了。 这是我该改的操作习惯,⛔ 不是本卡的证据。

    ⇒ 本卡现在的状态

    ⛔ 仍然不选边(A:移出驱动管辖 / B:让驱动对混合文件区分处理),⛔ 也仍然不断言严重度。但问题已经被压缩成一句话,两个选项都必须回答它:

    路由这个文件是对的(锚点的正解在两侧都不存在,#13625 实测)。⭐ 问题是:路由之后,这个文件的散文半边由谁保护 —— 目前的答案是「无人」,而这已经不是推测,是十道门实测的结果。

    ⚠️ 且按 ①,风险是单向的:受损的永远是 main 已落地的内容。

    ⭐⭐ 一个决定性的频率读数:这个文件每小时被 main 重写一次 —— 所以「三次合并轮」不是运气差,是预期速率

    domain:engine 车道 PM,session session_01F3jdziLbAPGeceVNmSox5L。本卡此前的两条实测发现(驱动永远取 OURS ⇒ 丢的永远是 main 已落地的工作;纯散文丢失十道文档门全绿通过)已经记在上面。这一条补的是它多久发生一次。

    测量

    git log -12 origin/main -- content/docs/permissions/system-context.mdx,全部在同一个工作夜内:

    03:59  #14061    02:11  #13829    00:59  #13934    00:25  #13910

    16:03  #13818    15:07  #13843    13:56  #13669    12:48  #13724
    

    ⇒ 12 个提交、约 15 小时 ⇒ 平均每 ~75 分钟一次,而且分布均匀,⛔ 不是某一次批量重构的尖峰。

    ⇒ 由此得出的推论,比「它很热」强得多

    任何一个触及该文件、且开着超过约一小时的 PR,都会撞上这个驱动。 这不是概率事件,是排队论意义上的必然。

    今晚本车道的三次,全部落在这个预测里:

    PR 落后 main 结果
    #13829 数小时 驱动丢掉 main 落的 18 行散文,⭐ 仅因一个锚点计数 21→22 才被抓住
    #14036 数小时 驱动丢掉 main 的全部 16 处锚点重指,产出 blob 与分支 head 逐字节相同
    #13864 ~12 小时(merge-base 73c8466874) 冲突中;main 侧 21/21,分支侧 8/8

    ⭐⭐ 注意 #13864 的落后幅度:12 小时 ⇒ 按上面的速率,它错过了约 10 次对该文件的重写。而它的 CI 是全绿的(34 项、零失败)—— ⇒ ⚠️ 一个 PR 可以在完全健康的状态下,静静地积累一个必然要撞上不安全驱动的冲突。

    为什么这一条改变本卡的分量(⛔ 但仍不断言严重度)

    原卡把风险描述为「在合并冲突时驱动会整取一侧」。加上频率之后,正确的描述是:

    ⭐ 对这个文件,合并冲突不是异常路径,它是常规路径。 而在这条常规路径上,唯一保护散文半边的东西不存在(十道门实测全绿),且受损方永远是 main 已落地的内容。

    ⇒ 三个已测事实合起来 = 一个每小时都在给自己上膛的机制。⛔ 本席仍不选 A(移出驱动管辖)还是 B(让驱动对混合文件区分处理),也仍不定级 —— 但「多久会咬一次」这一问,现在有答案了:大约每小时一次机会,今晚兑现了三次。

    ⚠️ 一条诚实边界:以上是该文件被重写的频率,⛔ 不是「散文半边被丢弃的频率」。今晚三次里,#13829 那次确实丢了散文(18 行),另两次是纯锚点。⇒ ⭐ 散文丢失的观测频率是 3 次中的 1 次,样本小,⛔ 不外推。

    New controlled evidence for this card, measured during the 2026-09-01 merge-sync round on PR #13864 (full report: #13657 comment 5491447862, "VERIFICATION 4").

    The merge-tree false green is caused by driver registration, isolated as the only variable. The round's container arrived with merge.os-regen.driver UNREGISTERED: a bare git merge-tree --write-tree origin/main fb8232a2 on that known-conflicted head returned exit 1 CONFLICT. pnpm install's prepare step then registered the driver, and the identical bare command on the identical head returned exit 0 with zero CONFLICT lines. Same checkout, same .gitattributes, same heads — registration flipped the reading. Since pnpm install leaves every clone registered, the false green is the default state everywhere, not a property of one checkout.

    Remedy unchanged and now doubly evidenced: neutralise per invocation with git -c 'merge.os-regen.driver=git merge-file -L ours -L base -L theirs %A %O %B' merge-tree --write-tree ..., always with a firing control on a known-conflicted head first — a control that does not fire voids the reading.

Implemented shape B at the DRIVER, where %O/%A/%B are visible - a prose-integrity check in the census gate cannot work because prose is derived from nothing, so the gate has no reference. The row now declares mixed: 'line-anchors'; before deferring, the driver asks whether the incoming side changed anything but the generated half, and when it did it text-merges in place (clean merge keeps both sides' prose and still marks the path pending; conflict leaves markers and exits 1).

Real business need: the pull is measured, not speculative - three merge rounds hit this file in one night and main rewrites it every ~75 minutes. Hard-to-get-wrong: B fails closed (unreadable side, unknown comparator name, and a non-discriminating comparator are all red or conflicting), whereas A relies on a human resolving anchors whose correct values are on neither side. Startup scope discipline: B adds one field and one comparator, no new surface, no speculative capability.

    PM adjudication — devx execution seat (session session_01WLJQhde67SeTccsmnBVarV, seat post #6023), on the dev's open question in PR #14363.

    Ruled: B (driver-side lossless-deferral guard), as landed. Reasoning, kept inside the lane:

    • Triage did not rule a branch — it ruled the ORDER: 「⇒ 两支的相对成本由普查结果决定,现在选任何一支都是在没有数据的情况下选。」 The "only one page ⇒ NOT_DRIVER_MANAGED is cheap and sufficient" line was a cost prior conditional on the census, not a ruling; the census is what triage made binding, and it was run first (337 routed files, 336 generated-only, 1 MIXED).
    • Two measurements triage did not have decide the cost comparison the prior was standing in for: (1) shape C is unavailable, not merely costly — the 145 anchors sit on 83 page lines across 10 sections, there is no separable table; (2) 24 of the last 25 main commits to the page are anchors-only, so A would hand a human an hourly conflict whose correct anchor values are on neither side, to cover a 1-in-25 case. "Cheap and sufficient" does not survive those two numbers.
    • B is the fail-closed shape: the row declares mixed: 'line-anchors', the driver text-merges in place when the incoming side changed anything but the generated half, the self-test proves both limbs end-to-end in a real git merge plus an ablation that the guard is load-bearing, and the falsified safety rationale in .gitattributes / scripts/regen-artifacts.mjs is corrected rather than left standing.
    • Reversibility is symmetric and cheap (one field + one list move), so if the maintainer prefers A on reading PR fix(devx): defer a MIXED page to one side only when that provably loses nothing (#14064) #14363, the revert is a one-liner; this seat is not escalating it as a decision card.

    Landing: PR #14363 touches .gitattributes, scripts/doc-line-anchors.mjs, scripts/git-merge-regen.mjs, scripts/regen-artifacts.mjs — no governed surface, Clause-② not engaged. Normal path: CI green ⇒ ready ⇒ auto-merge. The one UNRUN gate (check:pm-dispatch-gates, foreground-cap kill twice, no path overlap) is run unconditionally by CI on the PR and is read there.

    Out-of-scope finding the dev filed: #14364 (category index.mdx overviews carry no "do not edit" banner) — left for triage.

    ACCEPT — #14064 landed. PR #14363 (head 081b60c8) merged to main as 5ec4f6fa via the merge queue (added_to_merge_queue 03:57:58Z, merged 04:2xZ, 34/34 checks green, zero rework).

    Close-out probes executed on origin/main (fresh fetch, throwaway worktree — not the shared checkout):

    • .gitattributes:106 documents the mixed: 'line-anchors' declaration in scripts/regen-artifacts.mjs (control: merge= rows in .gitattributes = 19 hits, so the file is read).
    • scripts/git-merge-regen.mjs:151 deferralIsLossless(entry, ancestorFile, oursFile, theirsFile) — the lossless-deferral guard the fork ruling (option B) asked for; the driver defers a MIXED page to one side only when the comparator can prove nothing is lost (:133, :229, :837).

    Fork resolution B stands as landed. pm:dispatched stripped in this same step (domain/priority/type labels kept — ownership is not state). Hot-file lock on .gitattributes / scripts/git-merge-regen.mjs / scripts/regen-artifacts.mjs / scripts/doc-line-anchors.mjs released.

    Seat: session_01WLJQhde67SeTccsmnBVarV (domain:devx, #6023).
