Replace the local-vs-UTC test with a timestamp that actually straddles UTC
day boundary (00:30 local on 2 September = 22:30Z on the 1st). The original
test was vacuous because both readings agreed on the same calendar day.
Delete the rename-stability test which was a tautology — occurrenceId never
takes a title, so any pure function satisfied it. The real assertion belongs
in a later task where the whole rule is passed in and a rename can be
exercised.

myevent:<token>#<YYYY-MM-DD>. The token says which recurring thing, the
local day says which time round, and marks, ignores, progress and daily
ticks all key off the whole string — so an occurrence carries its own
completion and its own streak rather than sharing the rule's.
'#' is outside [a-z0-9] and therefore outside CustomEventId, so an
occurrence cannot be written back into the store or survive an import.
That is the guardrail rather than a code path anybody has to remember, and
a test pins it in both directions.

The app can express a window closing and a day repeating; daily.ts counts
in days and stops there. This is the arithmetic under the rung between
them.
Local wall-clock rather than milliseconds, because a reader's own event is
local throughout — a weekly reset set for 09:00 stays at 09:00 across a DST
transition, where adding 7*DAY would move it an hour and drag every later
occurrence with it. Months clamp to the last valid day rather than letting
setMonth roll 31 February into 3 March, which is the same silent shift
readerInstant already refuses on the way in.

Sixteen events, from a page whose URL never needs editing: /en-us/hi3/timeline
answers 307 to the live version, so the site names its own current version
server-side and the runner follows it. That is the stable route the
marisaimpact.com page was declined for lacking, and pinning a version here
would publish a finished schedule as current the day the game moves on — a
test asserts the registered URL carries no version.
The boundaries are estimated week-bucket edges rather than announced dates,
which is the objection marisaimpact.com was declined on and is taken here
deliberately: the game had no source at all, and approximate six-week windows
were judged better than an empty lane. Confidence records it in the data.
Verified against the live page rather than only against the expected file:
all sixteen rendered grid-column spans agree with the JSON, which independently
confirms the week mapping and that endWeek is exclusive, and sixteen bars on
the page yield sixteen events with nothing silently dropped. The two 7-Day
Login events get their own test, since collapsing them into one ID is the
failure this parser is most likely to regress into.

The open-end vocabulary is written down twice and the two copies have to agree.
`parseOpenRange` decides whether a row is datable; `RANGE_PREFIX` strips the
range off the front of the cell so `proseAfterDates` can recover the blurb
behind it. A word the first knows and the second does not still yields the
event — with the leftover end tacked onto the summary a reader actually sees.
That is what happened to all eight Endfield rows the previous commit recovered:
`- TBA Sign-in to get extra pulls for Typhoeus!`. Adding `tba` beside `tbd`
fixes it, and a comment now says why the lists travel together, since the next
one of these will be found the same way — by reading generated fixture output.
Pins the 1.5 page beside the 1.4 one rather than replacing it. Fixtures are
permanent and these are different table shapes, not different data: 1.4 is a
single dated row, 1.5 is nine rows of open ends. The group name gains the
fixture path now that one adapter has two.
Nine rows, eight events. `Ridgeline Flows of Autumn Sign-In` reads
`Period: TBA` with no start at all, so it stays undatable and dropped.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
`parseOpenRange` only ever read a month-name start, because it delegates to
`parseMonthDayYear`. So `Jul. 24, 2026 - End of 4.6` parsed and
`09/02/2026 - TBA` did not.
Game8 re-cut Endfield's upcoming table from version 1.4 to 1.5 and wrote the
whole new schedule in the second notation. All nine rows became undatable and
were dropped in silence: the source went from one event to zero, the parse gate
kept the previous snapshot, and the run reported a shape change on a page whose
shape had not changed. Nine announced events were invisible with no error
anywhere — the failure § Working on parsers calls the dangerous one.
Which notation a page uses is house style, not a statement about how certain the
source is, so both are read. The year stays mandatory in either: this is the
last reader tried, so nothing downstream would catch a guess, and Game8's
year-less summary rows (`08/12 - 08/24`) must keep returning null rather than
becoming confidently dated events.
The two-digit year pivot moves out of `parseShortSlashRange` into `pivotYear`
rather than being written a second time.
Diffed across every pinned fixture and all nineteen live snapshots: no event
moved.

Every Wuthering Waves event published with no description, and two of them
did not publish at all. The page has always carried both: below the Ongoing
and Upcoming tables it repeats each live event as its own sub-section,
titled by an h4, over an `Event Duration` row and a paragraph of prose —
the shape Persona 5 uses, one heading level down. Two things kept the whole
block unreadable, and the second is why the first was never noticed.
`RANGE_LABEL` matched a bare `duration` and not `Event Duration`, so
`readLabelledDates` returned null for all ten of those tables and no
candidate was ever pushed — which is also why `summaryAfter`, whose only
job is that trailing paragraph, never ran. The label is now qualified the
way START_LABEL and END_LABEL already allow.
The other was the h4 rule. An unrecognised h4 could never name an event,
because Genshin uses h4 for sub-headings *inside* one ("Availability
Period") and letting a label claim the title renames the event to whatever
sits above its date table. But an h4 is all Wuthering Waves offers. Both
pages are served by the narrower rule: an h4 may fill an empty title, never
take one. Genshin's h3 has already claimed the slot before its labels
arrive; here the block sits under a section heading, so the slot is empty.
That only holds if the heading is recognised rather than fallen through,
since an unrecognised one is read as an event name and would spend the
title on the section — hence `events summary` in the vocabulary.
`dedupe` needed nothing. It already blends a missing summary onto the
better-dated copy for Persona 5 and never blends a date, which is what
keeps Gifts of Starpath's end on August 19 despite the block spelling it
"Auguts".
The fixture goes from ten events to twelve — `Recaptured: Action
Highlights` and `Mingshen Notices` are dated nowhere else on the page — and
nine of the ten blanks fill in. Ascendant Aces stays blank because
`Unlocked by default` is the only prose Game8 ever wrote for it, which is
what `isRequirementOnly` is for, and a test pins it there. Diffed across
every pinned fixture and all nine live Game8 snapshots: the only other
movement is Gifts of Drifting Mist gaining its blurb, and no date, no
count and no other source moved.

They were one group called "Reading", grouped on "both are how do I read
this?" — which summarised as "Europe · Dark", two unrelated answers joined
by a dot, under a name for neither of them, in a panel whose whole premise
is that a closed line answers its own group.
The region is not a reading preference. Region-scoped ends, a date printed
without a time, and every daily streak are all cut on that server's clock,
so it is the one control in this panel that can make a countdown wrong —
and it was filed behind a word for the theme. Split, each line answers one
question, and the region group says what it governs when opened.
The eyebrow above each pill row goes with it, since the group summary now
asks the question the eyebrow was repeating; aria-label keeps the
accessible name, which is what stops six unlabelled buttons in a row from
being all a screen reader hears. The summary assertions are looked up by
group name rather than by index, so splitting a group no longer moves every
assertion below it onto a neighbour.

GitHub Pages gzips for us, so the deployed site never had this problem. The
Docker image serves through serve.ts, which did not — so a self-hoster shipped
the bundle at 344 KB where the site sends 100 KB, and the feed at 90 KB where
the site sends 10 KB. Roughly three times the bytes, and on anything slower than
a laptop on wifi three times the download.
Negotiated on `accept-encoding` and applied only to the text types this app
serves; a PNG is left alone rather than spending CPU to grow it. `Vary` goes out
on both answers, because a shared cache that does not know the response depends
on the request header will hand gzipped bytes to a client that never asked.
The compressed bytes are cached in memory and keyed by mtime — these files
change only on deploy, so re-gzipping 344 KB per request is waste, and keying on
mtime rather than holding forever keeps `bun run dev` serving what was just
rebuilt. A failure to compress falls through to the raw file: this is an
optimisation and never a reason to fail a request.

`iso()` read back the month and the day to catch February 30 rolling over to
March 2, and took the year on trust. `Date.UTC` maps years 0–99 into the 1900s,
so a four-digit "0050" came back as 1950 with the month and day intact — past
both existing checks, because nothing about the resulting date is impossible.
Same class of failure as the rollover the guard was written for: a boundary the
source never stated, published as though it had. Reading the year back too is
the skip-rather-than-guess rule this module runs on, applied to the one field
that was not checked. It narrows only — `parseShortSlashRange`'s two-digit pivot
produces full years and is untouched.

The "Running now" header had a hint reading "next after this ends in …", and the
commit before this one fixed a real defect in the string it produced — an
unannounced end became the word "ended". Both were beside the point: the branch
cannot render at all.
`Section` shows `action ?? hint`. The hint needed a second live row to have
anything to say, and two live rows are two visible rows, which is exactly the
condition that puts the sort control in the same slot. So the action was present
whenever the hint was, and won every time.
What it would have said is already on the page. The headline panel's "Then" list
names the deadlines behind the closest one and counts each of them down, which is
the same answer with more room. So the hint slot goes, `followingDeadlineMs` goes
with it as its only caller, and `Section` is left with the one control slot it
actually uses.

The progress store merged like the mark stores do, keeping whichever copy had
the earlier timestamp. That is right for a mark — `at` is when the reader made
it, membership is the whole fact, and the oldest stamp is the truest one — and
wrong here, because this record *is* the data. A status, an effort, a note and
whether an event repeats all live in it, and `at` says when one of those last
changed.
So the earlier copy winning discarded every edit made after it, in both of the
directions an import actually happens in: restoring a backup taken before an
evening's work undid the evening, and importing an old file onto a device with
newer progress rolled the device back. Neither is recoverable — there is no
account and no server holding a second copy.
The later record wins now. Nothing is removed in either direction, and taking
the maximum of two timestamps is as order-independent and idempotent as the rule
it replaces. `mergeProgress` came out of the hook to be tested, which is also
how the ignored store's opposite rule is now written down rather than assumed.

Every other surface here is handed `now` — the headline, the board, the dailies
strip, the detail sheet — for the reason the parsers are: a function that reads
the clock cannot be rendered against a fixed instant, so nothing about it can be
asserted. The list row was the one exception, calling the wall clock twice for
its window caption and its "starts in".
Two things follow from fixing it. Those numbers were counted from a different
instant than the `clock` sitting beside them in the same row, which is a
disagreement nobody would ever notice and nobody could ever prove. And the
countdown is now testable: rendering one row at two instants gives the two
answers the injected clock implies, which is what the new test pins.

The panel was one open block of everything in two columns. That reads fine at
four games and stops working at eighteen: the game list alone is eighteen rows
of four controls each, and it sat above the checkbox somebody had scrolled down
here to tick. Nothing was findable and everything was in the way.
Collapsing it into groups is only half an answer, though — a group showing
nothing but its name turns "what is my region set to?" into a click, which
trades one kind of friction for another. So each summary carries its group's
current state: "Europe · Dark", "17 of 18 on · A–Z", "plus finished, not
started". Closed, the panel is a five-line report of how the app is configured;
opening one is for changing an answer rather than reading it. The states are
derived from `prefs` at render, never stored, so they cannot drift from the
controls they describe.
Native `<details>`, for the reason the reorder arrows are ordinary buttons:
keyboard and screen reader reach it with no second implementation. `summary` is
not an `a`, `button` or `[tabindex]`, so it needed its own focus-visible rule —
the shared one does not reach it.
Two things fell out along the way. The region and appearance rows had no
accessible name at all, so a screen reader read six unlabelled buttons in a row;
they and the board's split pills are one `PillGroup` now, with the `role="group"`
the board's own controls already carry. And the empty states that point at
"Show events that haven't started" now name the group holding it, which is what
makes shipping the groups closed safe.

The section header said "next after this ends in {live[1]}", which got the
question wrong in both of the ways lens.ts exists to prevent.
An event whose end was never announced has no time remaining, and the `?? 0`
that stood in for it made `formatRemaining` return its expiry string — so a
second row with `endsAt: null` had the header reading "next after this ends in
ended". That is the one rule this product is built on, inverted: an unknown end
announced as an expiry.
And `live[1]` is the second *row*, not the second deadline. The list is sorted
by whatever mode the reader picked, so under "doing first" the header named
whatever they were second-most partway through — the same mistake firstToExpire
was written to keep out of the headline, one row further down.
`followingDeadlineMs` asks the deadlines instead and returns null when there is
no second dated end, and the header then says nothing at all.

The games chip row becomes a row per game, because a reorder affordance needs
somewhere to put a handle and two arrows, and at fourteen games a list reads
better than a wrapped row of pills anyway.
Reordering lives here and nowhere else. The focus bar and the dailies strip are
the fastest tap targets in the app, and a drag target sitting on top of a tick
target costs somebody a streak the first time it misfires — so the live surfaces
stay drag-free and this is the screen you visit on purpose.
Both affordances ship. Touch fires no drag events at all, so the arrows are the
mechanism and the handle is the pointer fast path; being ordinary buttons is
also what makes the whole thing reachable by keyboard and screen reader without
a second implementation of the same interaction. An arrow at either end is
disabled rather than removed, because a control that disappears on the first row
slides the other one under the finger aiming at it.
A move writes back the whole displayed list: the indices are positions on
screen, so applying them to a stored order that names only some lanes would move
the wrong game. Reset writes the field away rather than storing an empty order.

The focus bar, the settings list, the timeline's lanes and the dailies strip all
go through `orderGames` now, resolved once in App. `games` itself stays in feed
order on purpose: `adoptNewLanes` diffs it and `knownGames` is seeded from it,
so ordering it at source would let a display preference reach the code that
decides which of a reader's games get hidden — a reordering bug would become a
game-silently-switched-off bug.
The dailies strip also groups. It was `[...chores, ...repeating]`, which put
Genshin's commissions and Genshin's own login event at opposite ends with a
dozen games between them; a game's chore and its repeating events are now
adjacent, chore first, events in the order they arrived. Collapsed that is
adjacency alone — no per-game headings, because this is the part of the page
answerable in ten seconds and a heading each would make it the tallest block on
it, pushing "next to expire" down the page.
Two things moved to where they belong. Skipping a standing chore for a lane the
reader invented is `dailyGroups`' rule, not the call site's: filtering those
lanes out in App also cost a reader's own game its place in the order its events
group under. And the expanded catch-up panel is its own exported component, so
which days it offers and whose clock they were cut on are testable rather than
trapped behind a `useState`.
`Welcome` drops its own comparator for the shared rule — the picker runs before
any stored order, so it asks for the A–Z case and cannot drift from the four
surfaces behind it.

People play at midnight and tick at breakfast, or forget for a week and come
back. A log that only accepts today goes wrong on its first bad evening and is
never trusted again.
An event whose end was published already allowed this — its checklist draws the
whole run and past pips are clickable. `catchUpDays` answers the two cases
`dailyDays` cannot: a standing chore, which has no start or end because it is a
routine rather than an event, and an event with `endsAt: null`, where the
checklist could draw no run at all and so offered only today. That second one
is the worse of the two, because it looks like a working checklist.
Never a day past today. A tick claims you did it, and nobody can have done
tomorrow, so a future day is absent rather than rendered and disabled — a
control for a claim that cannot be true. An event's strip starts when the event
did, capped at the same fortnight so a login campaign that opened in March does
not become a wall of pips.
The window bounds display and never data: a tick older than it stays logged and
keeps counting toward the streak. `DayPip` moves to its own module rather than
being copied, so there is one answer to what a missed day looks like.

Nothing did. Every surface that lists a game rendered App's `games`, which is
the order lanes first appear in the feed — whichever game happened to hold the
first event row. It is arbitrary, it moves as events come and go, and it was
the same complaint the first-run picker had.
So `orderGames` is one rule in one place, and `prefs.gameOrder` is where the
reader's own answer goes. Absent means they have never placed a game rather
than an empty order, which is the distinction `knownGames` already draws and
the same trap: every install predating the field is in that state, and reading
it the other way would hand them a blank list. They get A–Z by the name on
screen instead.
Two properties carry the weight, and both are tested rather than asserted. The
result is always a permutation of the lanes given, because a game dropped
here looks exactly like a game switched off and switching it on would not
bring it back. And a lane the order does not name trails the ones it does, so
a game we add later never lands in the middle of a hand-made order and a
retired source keeps its slot for when it returns.
Nothing reads it yet.

The picker took `available` in feed order — whichever game happened to hold
the first event row — which means something everywhere else in the app and
nothing on this screen, where the reader is scanning for the two or three
names they already know.
Sorted on the name printed on the button rather than the LaneId, since the id
is not what a reader sees, and through localeCompare rather than `<`, because
a code-point sort files hololive Dreams after every capitalised game instead
of between Genshin and Honkai.

Four Fandom sources have skipped on a challenged robots.txt every cycle, so
their calendars are only ever as fresh as the last manual run. For a product
whose promise is a trustworthy end date, four stale lanes are the worse failure
— so the scheduled run now passes --assume-robots-on-403 and the owner re-reads
those files by hand over time.
Kept asymmetric on purpose: --force is still refused on an unattended run.
Forcing every cycle really is just a shorter interval with extra steps, and
nothing about this decision touches that.
The accepted risk is narrower than "crawling against robots.txt", and worth
stating precisely. A plain 403 still fails closed, so a host that turns us away
still stops the run — that is what the challenge-or-refusal split buys. What is
invisible is a robots.txt edited to disallow us, because from a challenged
address a withdrawal looks exactly like the challenge we already expect. No
code can catch that; only the re-read can.
Which makes the per-cycle warning the compensating control rather than a
courtesy, so it is now pinned as one: every host named, and surviving as a
run-page annotation on a completely green cycle where nothing else draws the
eye. A dispatch can set the input to false to see the real state.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Four Fandom sources have been skipping on a challenged robots.txt every cycle,
and the only thing that clears it is a person passing the recorded permission.
Until now there was no way to do that from the workflow, so it meant checking
out the repo and running the refresh by hand. Both overrides are dispatch
inputs now, guarded on the literal string "true" and empty on the cron, so the
schedule still cannot reach either one.
The force-push guard needed narrowing to allow this. It asserted the workflow
contains no "--force" anywhere, as a proxy for never rewriting the branch, and
the refresh runner's own --force flag trips that substring while having nothing
to do with pushing. It now matches force on a git push specifically, including
--force-with-lease, which is still one — a tighter assertion than the string it
replaces, checked against both a real force push and the flag it must ignore.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Both overrides stand in for a person deciding something, and the gate that
enforced it asked the coarser question. `isCi()` got the case that matters
wrong: a `workflow_dispatch` sets CI=true, so somebody clicking "Run workflow"
was refused exactly as the cron was, which made both flags unreachable from the
workflow at all. A dispatch is a person, and a better-evidenced one than a local
shell — GitHub records which one, and the run log keeps it.
`runAttendance` draws the line where it belongs: a local shell is a person, a
dispatch is a person and names the actor, and a schedule — or any other runner
event, erring that way on purpose — is not. The run now prints which override
was used and who authorised it, because a local shell leaves no trace anybody
else can read.
The schedule stays refused, and for the robots override that is not ceremony.
From an address that gets a challenge we never receive robots.txt at all, so a
cron standing on the recorded permission has no way to notice the host
withdrawing it, and that permission has no expiry. The challenge-or-refusal
narrowing does not close this: a plain 403 still stops us, but a robots.txt
edited to disallow us would be invisible, because a challenge arrives instead of
a file. A person re-reading it is the only thing that ever re-validates it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
`--assume-robots-on-403` stands in for rules a person read in a browser, for a
host that will not serve us the file. It always claimed it would not override a
host that had turned us away — but it could not tell the two 403s apart, so it
excused both. A managed challenge ("we cannot tell what you are") is a question
our fetcher cannot answer and the operators never asked, which is what makes a
human reading the rules a fair substitute. A bare 403 is the site itself saying
no, and nothing recorded on our side may talk over that.
`isInterstitialChallenge` now decides, on Cloudflare's own `cf-mitigated` header
with the challenge page's markers as a fallback; an unreadable body counts as
unclassifiable rather than challenged. This only ever narrows what the flag
opens, so nothing that passed the gate before stops passing it.
Every 403 is classified whether or not the flag is set, and the kind goes into
the reason string the run reports. `robots.txt returned 403` read identically
whether the answer was to refresh by hand on the recorded permission or to stop
fetching the source, and the summary is where somebody has to decide that.

It was the board's alone, sitting between two app-wide filters and
carrying a line of small print to explain why it was different. It is the
same events answering the same question in either view, so it is now one
switch: the board plots them, and the checklist keeps its "Not started
yet" section.
That means the section is off by default, which is a visible change for
every existing reader — deliberate, and the same argument the board makes.
This app answers what expires next; on fourteen lanes the queued patches
are more rows than the thing they came for.
`timelineUpcoming` becomes `showUpcoming`, because the old name would now
be false, and `adoptRenamed` carries a stored answer across on load.
Nothing would be lost by dropping it — `prefs` is one blob under one key,
not a key space — but a reader who had switched the future on would find
it off with no explanation, and they should not have to say a thing
twice. A stored new name always wins, so it cannot overwrite a fresher
answer with a stale one.
Gating the section alone would have opened a hole: nothing running and
everything held back rendered an empty column, because the "nothing to
show" line keyed off there being no rows at all rather than none listed.
It now counts what is held back and names the switch, as the board does.
The split pills stay the board's: the checklist gives these a section
with a heading either way, so there is nothing there to mix them into.

"In their own group" is the shape of a patch — what is on now, and what
is queued behind it. "Mixed in" is the question a Gantt chart exists for:
what runs out first, whether or not it has opened. On real data that is
not a cosmetic difference — mixed, five events currently running sort
below an Arknights rerun that has not started, because it closes before
they do.
Which is why it is a pair of pills and not a checkbox: neither answer is
the absence of the other, and "mixed in" is a different order rather than
the heading switched off. It sits under the row that puts the future on
the board at all, and only while that row is ticked — a choice about
arranging unstarted events is unanswerable with none of them on screen.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Whether unstarted events keep to their own block or sit in one deadline
order with the running ones. Both are right for somebody, so it is the
reader's answer and it survives a reload like the rest of the board's
shape does.
Defaults to the block, which is the board as it was before the choice
existed. Only read while `timelineUpcoming` is on — with nothing
unstarted plotted there is no block to keep apart — but stored either
way, so switching that back on restores what they said rather than a
default.
The Controls test builds a whole `Prefs`, so a new required field lands
there in the same commit or nothing typechecks in between.

A dashed edge and a thinner wash say "this bar has not started". They do
not say where the running ones ended, so a board with the future switched
on had to be decoded bar by bar to answer the question a reader opens it
with — what is on now.
So the boundary gets a label, and it is the same object as a lane's name:
a small eyebrow pinned to the left edge, surviving any scroll position. In
muted ink rather than a hue, because a hue on this board means "whose
event is this" and this is not about a game. One per lane, since "where
does this stop running?" is a different answer for each of them.
Where it goes is a single index rather than a per-row test, because there
is only one boundary: every order this board can be given puts live rows
before upcoming ones, and `splitAt` is exported so that is a test rather
than a comment.

It shipped as a pill in the board's own header, beside the stacking and
scale controls. That is the wrong company: those two reshape what is
already on the board, which is why they are reached for while reading it,
and this one decides what is on it at all — the same question
"Show events I've finished" and "Show events I'm ignoring" answer, from
the panel where both of those live.
It is the only one of the three scoped to a single view, so the row says
so instead of reading as a promise about the whole app. The board loses
the count the pill carried; with nothing left running it still says how
many are waiting and names the setting, and the page header has said
"N live · N upcoming" all along.
Controls had no tests at all, so the three view filters get some: what
each checkbox is bound to is invisible in a diff and obvious only to the
reader it happens to.

Two halves of one reading. The board answers "how does the time I am in
lay out?", and plotting every lane's next patch stretched the window
weeks past today and squeezed the running bars down to nothing — so it
holds them back, and holds them back itself rather than being handed a
shorter list, because the control has to say *how many*. A board that
quietly withheld a third of the schedule is indistinguishable from a
quiet fortnight, which is the wrong thing for this app to imply by
accident. A board with nothing left running says so and points at the
control instead of reading as an empty calendar.
Switched on, a bar drawn right of the now rule is only implicitly in the
future, and implicitly is not a standard we hold anywhere else a date is
involved. Gacha schedules are not a smooth stream of starts either — a
patch ships six things at once — so the unit is the clump: a dashed rule
per group of starts, labelled in words. Clumps merge by distance on
screen rather than by calendar, since a week apart is one mark at six
pixels a day and two at a hundred and eight, and a merged one states the
span it covers rather than claiming a date the board is not ruling at.

The run just made reported each of the four Fandom hosts twice — once from the
warning pushed in runRefresh and once from a second loop in main() that printed
summary.assumedRobots again. Eight lines for four facts, and the header above
them said "5 warnings" while nine printed under it, so the count a reader uses
to judge whether to read the list was wrong in the direction that matters.
Mine, from the commit that added the flag: I put the reminder in main() to make
it loud, having already made it loud in the summary.
The instruction folds into the single warning instead, so it still says to go
re-read the file in a browser, and it now also reaches the job summary and
annotations, which only ever read summary.warnings.

The link sits last in the existing row beside @StereotypicalCat and Source
code, in that row's own muted grey, with the same hover and the same small
mark. No accent colour, no button, no sentence asking for anything, and the
footer still contains no appeal anywhere — a test asserts that. This page earns
its keep by being trusted about dates, and a tip jar competing with the
disclaimer two paragraphs above spends that trust to make an ask. As one more
link it costs nothing and is there for a reader already looking.
The row also moves above "Additional ideas and design from". That row is who
built this and where to find them; the credit below it is other people. Reading
order now follows that split, instead of routing a reader past five strangers'
handles to reach the author's own links.

The interval gate has no override, so a page you know has just changed cannot
be fetched until six hours after the last attempt. The only workaround was
deleting snapshots/<id>.state.json, which also wipes consecutiveFailures and
lastConfirmedAt — resetting the broken-source streak and making the footer age
every source from when its bytes last changed rather than when we last
confirmed them. A flag that says what it means is better than a side effect
nobody documented.
It sets aside the interval and nothing else. Conditional headers still go out,
which is what makes forcing defensible at all: the host is asked, not
re-served, and an unchanged page costs it a 304. Per-host spacing, robots, one
request per source and the no-retry rule all still apply — a source that was
not due and is also disallowed stays skipped, for the reason that matters.
Refused under CI, like --assume-robots-on-403 and for the same reason: a
schedule that forces every cycle is a shorter interval with extra steps, and
the interval is the obligation, not the default. So AGENTS.md § Scraping
conduct is amended rather than left to be quietly contradicted by a flag.
Every source asked early is named in summary.forced and warned about. A run
that was due anyway is never reported as forced — a summary that cried "forced"
on an ordinary run would train the reader to ignore the word.
Also repoints the "unknown flag" test, which used --force as its example and
stopped testing anything the moment --force existed.

Fandom answers our fetcher 403 on /robots.txt itself, from every address we
have, while api.php?action=parse answers the same User-Agent with a 200. The
gate fails closed on the unreadable file, so r1999, fgo, nikke and nikki can
never refresh — even though their rules are not unknown: a person read them in
a browser and wrote them into AGENTS.md, verbatim, which is how three of those
four were cleared in the first place.
This flag is that recorded permission, and nothing wider. What it deliberately
does not do is most of the design:
- 403 only. A 401, a 5xx, a timeout or a soft 404 still mean we do not know
what the site permits, and unknown is still not permission.
- It never overrides a robots.txt we could read. A file that answers and
disallows us is an answer, and it still wins. So this is no use for game8.co
— whose robots.txt reads fine and welcomes us while its edge refuses the
pages — and it must not become one.
- Refused under CI. It stands in for a human having read a file this morning,
and there is no human on a runner. A scheduled job asserting a permission
nobody re-checked is exactly how "temporary" stops being temporary.
- Loud. Every host it applied to is warned about by name, in the run log and
in the summary, with a line saying to go re-read the file. An override that
reports nothing is one nobody withdraws.
Nothing else about being a guest relaxes: one request per source, six hours
apart, spaced per host, conditional headers, no retries.

Nothing in the client prunes reader data today — no store filters against the
feed, knownGames only appends, metaFor renders a lane whose game is gone — so a
retired source, page or game leaves completion marks, streaks and hand-entered
events untouched. That was true by construction and pinned nowhere.
The load path is what makes it worth pinning. useCustom reads through
validRecords, which drops a record that fails its schema, and the survivors are
what the next write persists. A record that stops parsing is therefore not
hidden until someone notices — it is deleted from the device, permanently, by
the act of opening the app, with no server-side copy to recover it from.
Which makes CustomEvent.game being z.string() rather than GameId the whole
safety property, and it currently reads like validation someone forgot. Anyone
narrowing it to the enum would be tightening a schema and arming every future
game removal to erase reader data on next launch. The tests state the premise,
the survival, and that one unreadable neighbour still does not take the rest
down; the field says why it is loose.

Three parsers decide currency against ctx.now, because their page has no
"ongoing" heading worth trusting: bawiki.ts, and the Fate/Grand Order and
Infinity Nikki branches of fandom.ts. All three compared Date.parse(endsAt) to
now, and all three publish day-precision ends — so the comparison was against
the 00:00Z placeholder, which § Domain rules says is not an instant and nothing
may read literally.
clockFor already knows that and resolves such a boundary to the reset opening
that game-day on the reader's server. The parsers did not, so the feed retired
a row up to nine hours before the app, the countdown and the game all agreed it
was over. On the pinned Infinity Nikki fixture, "Inspiration Burst" left the
feed at 2026-08-22T01:00Z while clockFor still called it live for an American
reader until 09:00Z, and the page said it ran to 03:59 server time. The reader
does not see a stale row; they see the deadline they were counting down to
disappear on its last day, which is the silent drop this codebase treats as the
dangerous failure.
latestBoundaryMs answers clockFor's question for the last region rather than
one reader's, so a row is history only once it is history everywhere. It follows
a game's own server map and reset hour for the same reason clockFor does —
Endfield and Reverse: 1999 both move. Nothing stored changes: this is one
comparison, not a resolved boundary written into the feed, and no expected.json
moves.
Being generous by nine hours costs an expired row at the bottom of a list.
Being strict costs a live one.

The Game8 page stopped being updated on 31 August 2025 and mentions 2026 zero
times, and it had been publishing five year-old events with endsAt: null — which
the app renders as live-with-unknown-end indefinitely. That is worse than an
empty lane, and nothing in the pipeline catches it, because a stale page is not
a broken one: it fetches, it parses, it passes every test.
The replacement is the game's Fandom wiki, permitted by the same standard
robots.txt that cleared Nikke, maintained to within two days, and shaped as
Current / Upcoming / Permanent / Past tables of Event | Duration | Description
| Type.
Its durations state a wall clock on both sides and no zone anywhere for that
column, so parseZonelessClockRange reads the clock and discards it, publishing
the printed date at day precision. That invents nothing and treats these cells
exactly as every Game8 date already is. Converting instead would mean picking an
offset, and the offset moves the day: July 16 20:00 read as UTC-7 is July 17,
and the start's day is half of every event ID this game will ever have.
The Game8 entry is removed rather than kept as a second opinion, since a source
whose every row is wrong is not corroboration. Its fixture stays: it is the only
page here carrying the labelled "Start: ... End: Permanent" shape, and the test
now drives it through the parser directly.
Titles come from a link's title attribute, which never passes through text(), so
they are entity-decoded by hand — otherwise "Alison's Travel Shop" becomes a
slug, and a slug is a localStorage key. The ingest sanitiser caught exactly that
during the build.

Its robots.txt was read in a browser and is the standard Fandom file: no
Disallow: / for *, /api.php?action= explicitly allowed, and only the namespaces
we never want refused. The AI crawlers it blocks by name are not us. That was
the one thing missing — the API itself has always answered our own User-Agent
with a 200, and it is only robots.txt that a datacentre address cannot read.
The zone lives in the column header, Start(UTC+9) / End(UTC+9), and no date in
any cell carries an offset. So the header is the safety property: a table that
stops naming its zone is refused rather than read as UTC, which is the Blue
Archive hazard arriving one column to the left.
Two shapes worth knowing. Every title is an image read from <a title>, and the
newest row is the one whose logo has not been uploaded yet — it renders as a
red link reading "File:Persona on Frontline logo.png", so a reader that only
understood the link title would silently drop today's live event. And story
events state a clock only on the end, so the start keeps the day the page
printed rather than being shifted nine hours into the previous one; the start's
day is half an event ID. That is the FGO rule applied to the opposite gap.
resetOffsets and resetHourLocal ship with the game because the page evidences
both: events end 04:59:59 and the banner replacing them starts 05:00:00, one
second later, on a stated UTC+9. Adding that later would re-label day keys
readers had already logged ticks under.
Seconds now survive the date helpers, since rounding 04:59:59 to the minute
would make an event overlap the banner that succeeds it.

Near matching exists to reconcile two sources describing one event under
different titles. Within one source it has no such job: the page has already
told us these are two rows, the parser has already dropped repeats of the same
id, and fusing them overrules a distinction the publisher made on purpose.
The loose 0.80 threshold that makes the rule useful across sources makes it
actively wrong within one. Umamusume's banner list runs "3 Star Guaranteed 1.5
Anniversary Scout (Character)" and "(Support)" concurrently — titles differing
by a single parenthetical, starting the same day — and fusing them dropped a
live banner off the calendar with nothing anywhere reporting it. A silent drop
is the failure this codebase ranks as the dangerous one.
Same-id fusion is untouched, so nothing duplicates.

uma.moe stays declined — its API sits behind a Cloudflare Turnstile proof
header, and an adapter would mean defeating a deliberate access control. This
is the surface that is simply open, and it needed the parser change in the
commit before this one to be readable at all.
The stable URL matters: Game8 also publishes monthly "August 2026 Release
Schedule" pages whose id changes every month, which a static registry cannot
follow. "List of All Banners" does not move.
Four current banners, both columns of the side-by-side table, and none of the
Previous Banners below them. The tenth game8 source, so it carries the same CI
blindness as the other nine and only a manual refresh moves it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Game8's banner pages lay two schedules side by side inside one <table> under a
spanning label row: "Standard Banners | Banner | Rating | Availability | Paid
Banners | ...". That row is not merely unhelpful, it is plausible — it contains
both column words, so it resolves and puts the range at index 3, which no
three-cell data row has. Every row then fails to date and the table yields
nothing at all, with no error anywhere. So readColumnTable now falls back to
row 1, and only when row 0 produced nothing, which is what keeps every page
that parses today parsing identically.
Those pages also schedule banners rather than events and head their sections
accordingly, so the vocabulary learns "List of All Banners", "All Current
Banners" and — the one that matters — "Previous Banners", whose rows are dated
identically to the live ones directly above them.
This parser serves nine sources, so the widening was measured rather than
trusted: every pinned fixture and every live snapshot was parsed before and
after, and no existing source's output changed by a single event.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
No parser work at all — a GameId, a games entry, a SOURCES line, a fixture and
a test. The page lists six current events and the parser publishes four; the
two it skips print "Start Date: -", and no start means no event ID, so that is
the skip-never-guess rule working rather than a silent drop.
The cost is worth stating plainly: this is the ninth game8 source, and game8's
edge answers the Actions runner with a 202 and a bot-management body, so the
lane is built from a checked-in fixture in CI from day one and only a manual
`bun run refresh` moves it. freshness() discloses that in the footer, which is
what it is for.

This wiki publishes the same schedule twice and the fuller surface is the worse
one. /wiki/Banner_List has 55 clean rows with full wall clocks and states no
timezone anywhere on the page; the front page's Current Banners module emits
the same instants as real <time datetime="...-07:00"> elements. The two agree
exactly, which is strong evidence the list is UTC and is still only evidence —
so we read the surface that says what it means and pay four live banners
instead of a full history for it. If an editor ever states the zone on
Banner_List, that page becomes the better source immediately.
Two ways this could have failed silently. The template writes its BEM
underscores as __, so a selector written against the class name a
browser shows matches nothing at all; and banner names are red links to
?action=edit&redlink=1, which Miraheze's robots.txt disallows, so a href
carrying a query is refused and the page URL stands in.
No resetOffsets, and here the source did state an offset: -07:00, which is US
Pacific and therefore shifts twice a year. That is the Fate/Grand Order gap
arriving through a page that looks like it answered the question.

The best date material this project has after wiki.gg: every row states an
exact instant on both boundaries and names the zone, so nothing is converted
and nothing is assumed. `parseIsoClockRangeUtc` requires that `(UTC)` rather
than defaulting to it — a row that ever loses it should drop out instead of
landing hours off a boundary the reader is watching in-game.
The hazard here is the Server column. CN, EN and JP rows share one table and
the Chinese schedule runs about a year ahead, which is the akwiki CN-column
problem verbatim: publish EN, skip the rest. Betas are fenced off separately,
being dated exactly like everything else and playable by nobody, and the page
is an archive back to 2023, so currency is decided against ctx.now as in
bawiki. That leaves one live event today — thin, and true.
No resetOffsets: the EN boundaries land on three different clocks, which is a
patch window rather than a reset hour.

The dark tokens re-struck under `[data-theme="light"]`. Nothing sets that
attribute yet, so the app still renders exactly as it did.
Two things could not be tokens. Game hues are data — ours and the
reader's — and every one was picked against a near-black ground, so
`readableHue` darkens them along the same hue until they read on paper,
and returns dark untouched by construction. And the attribute has to be
on the root before React can mount, or a reader who chose light gets a
dark flash on every load, so the shell reads the preference itself.
That leaves the ground colour written in three files that cannot import
each other, which is what the test pins together.

Events routinely end within a day of each other, and at the old close
end of the ladder their bar ends were a few pixels apart — the board
being asked the one question it exists to answer and telling the reader
to squint. Seventy-two and 108 px/day separate them, and give a one-day
event a bar wide enough to read and to tap rather than the 34px every
short bar collapses to.
The clamp test now reads the ladder's last rung instead of naming 48, so
extending it again does not need the test rewritten.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
The board's header said "One lane per game" and left it at that; now it
offers the other stacking too, in the same place and the same pill shape
the list's sort control uses — you reach for it while looking at the
board, not in settings.
Merged, there is no lane heading to say whose event a bar is, and hue
alone cannot answer that once every game shares one stack. So each bar
carries its game's short name, and its tooltip carries the full one. A
bar under 96px has no room for a tag and a title both, and a chopped
game name reads as a broken word — those keep the title and say the game
in the tooltip.

Lanes keep a game's events adjacent, which is what makes the board
readable for someone playing four of them — but a reader with four games
has one queue of deadlines, and lanes scatter it: the thing ending
tonight sits three lanes below the thing ending next month, and no
amount of scrolling puts them side by side. So the stacking becomes a
choice, and the choice is remembered like the scale and the view are.
The merged mode sorts with endingSoonestFirst rather than a bare end
date, so the timeline and the list cannot mean different things by the
same words — and an unannounced end keeps its place behind every dated
one instead of pretending to a deadline.

A source that prints "August 19, 2026" and no time is stored at 00:00Z,
which is a placeholder for "somewhere in this day" rather than a claim
about when the day opens. The countdown read it literally, which turns it
into exactly that claim — and the UTC day is nobody's. Wuthering Waves
events dated the 19th were still running three hours after we had retired
them, because a European player's day opens at 04:00 on a UTC+1 server;
Asia was four hours out the other way and America nine. Sixty-two of the
eighty-six published events were affected, across ten of thirteen games,
so the reader was reading a wrong number far more often than a right one.
A day-precision boundary now resolves to the reset that opens that
game-day on the reader's server — the same grid daily.ts keys every tick
by, and the only clock we hold for a game. That is a reading of the date
the source printed, not a time invented for it: nothing stored moves, no
event ID moves, and the parsers still refuse to guess.
Two boundaries are never re-anchored. A regionEnds value is already the
instant a source stated per server, so anchoring it would throw a fact
away. And an event the reader typed in was resolved by readerInstant in
their own timezone, which is a stated time too — theirs.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Ticks are about to stop being its only caller: the countdown needs the same
grid, and daily.ts already imports time.ts, so asking for it the other way
would close a cycle. time.ts is where it belongs anyway — it has held
REGION_RESET_UTC_OFFSET all along, and serverOffsetUtc is that table's
accessor. Nothing changes shape; `shift` is exported as `resetShiftMs`
because dayKey now reads it across a module boundary.
