<id>urn:sha1:cffb879fa124c22acd400f59152a57d20cec036f</id>
<content type='text'>
RG 78's office has been built since ef-bvm-saturday: an otherwise
unoccupied IV-class Saturday is de sancta Maria in sabbato, white, IV
class. The Mass stayed the feria's, so the day observed Our Lady and then
read Colossians on the parable of the weeds. That is M26 shape 1.

RG 309(a) is the rule -- the Masses the Missal assigns "iuxta temporum
diversitatem" -- and it prints five, each under its own season heading.
All ten citations are transcribed from the scans with line numbers in the
source. Masses II-V were confirmed twice, against the scan and against a
live missalemeum capture of 2038 which names them and agrees on both
readings. Mass I rests on the scan alone: no oracle year to hand has an
Advent Saturday carrying this office. One witness where the others have
two, and the code says so rather than blurring it.

The mapping looked like the hard part and dissolved. The Missal's ranges
are cut by civil dates and movable feasts, not by this rite's seasons --
II ends mid-season at the Purification, III spans four seasons. But
measured against what a IV-class Saturday can actually be, it reduces to
a seasonal mapping plus one date test at 2/3 February, with no Easter
arithmetic at all: III's end to IV's start leaves the Triduum unassigned,
unreachable because Holy Saturday is I class; IV's end to V's start
leaves Pentecost week unassigned, also unreachable because that week's
Saturday is an Ember Saturday. Time after Pentecost then begins exactly
at Trinity, exactly where Mass V begins. Both gaps verified by sweep --
zero IV-class Saturdays in either across 2000-2059 -- not inferred.

The office is identified structurally, never off the slug, which it
deliberately shares with the ordinary feria: subject Bvm, IV class,
Saturday.

Blast radius: 87611 reading rows over the full domain, every one a
Saturday.

Allow-lists: M26 27 to 6, shape 1 gone, leaving only the Christ-the-King
residue argued in colitur's favour last commit. The 2038 suite's
BVM-SATURDAY-MASS class is removed rather than zeroed -- an id with no
rows must not be declared. M18 355 to 376. C17 widened 397 to 445,
taking its own Saturdays back from C1, C19 and C25, since one cause
should not be filed under two ids; C31 89 to 103; C25 closed at 0 rows,
its Holy-Name-week Saturdays now answered before step 3 is reached.

Three unit tests pinned the old behaviour and are corrected rather than
re-pinned: two asserted the day "keeps its ferial Mass", which was the
honest thing to assert while this was unimplemented. The third still
tests what it always did -- that step 4 refuses a temporal office -- and
only what answers instead has changed.

<title>feat(kernel): movable Date_spec variants, and Rogation Wednesday</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2b9f8133a22ce6dc309644a98bbe61507f574b38</id>
<content type='text'>
Date_spec carried one variant, Fixed(month, day), and its own header said
Sunday- and Easter-relative forms would arrive with the OF sanctoral. They
arrive early because two things needed them at once: a user-supplied
overlay carrying a local movable feast had no way to express "the first
Sunday of October", and Rogation Wednesday's commemoration has been
recorded as architecturally blocked since 2026-08-13.

That blockage turns out to have been a premise, not a fact. The register
concluded the Rogation "is not Commemoration_only sanctoral data by
nature... it needs a genuinely THIRD kind of thing this architecture has
no name for" -- but the reasoning rested on there being "no civil (month,
day) pair to anchor a Fixed entry to". That is a statement about
Date_spec's expressiveness. With Easter_offset the entity is ordinary
sanctoral data, the identical shape Add major-litanies already ships,
differing only in how the date is written. No third channel was needed.
The register is corrected rather than left contradicting the code.

Two variants: Easter_offset of int, and Nth_weekday of {month; nth;
weekday} with negative nth counting from the end. Fixed's sexp
representation is untouched, so all 327 sanctoral entries and the whole
overlay parse unchanged. Both are re-validated in t_of_sexp through their
smart constructors, extending the idiom Fixed already used -- the failure
that guards against is invisible, a spec deserialising into something
that silently never resolves and a celebration vanishing with no
diagnostic.

Easter is supplied by the rite, not computed in the kernel. Computus
ships Gregorian and Julian both, and picking one here would hard-code a
Roman assumption into rite-agnostic code and be silently wrong for a
Julian-reckoning rite. Rite.t gains an easter field; Rite_ef supplies the
Gregorian one.

Layer keeps a split index. Fixed entries stay in the year-independent
(month, day) table, which preserves the fast path and the "30 November
counted twice in a 371-day span" behaviour validate.mli documents for St
Andrew. Movable entries have no year-independent key by construction --
the same spec lands on a different (month, day) each year -- so they
resolve per civil year into a rata-die table. index_by_date is removed
rather than kept as an alias: two ways to index a layer, one of which
silently ignores movable entries, is the trap this change exists to
avoid.

Two domain-edge defects, both found by the suite rather than reasoning. A
liturgical year is Advent-anchored, so resolving civil year y names y +/-
1, and at the edges those are 1582 and 10000, which Computus correctly
refuses by raising. The ceiling surfaced through the domain-ceiling test,
the floor through `colitur day 1583` failing outright. Fixed once, in
Layer.index, the single point that calls the rite's easter -- a clamp
repeated per caller would have been two places to get wrong a third time.

Rogation Wednesday: RG 87 assigns the Litaniae minores to the Monday,
Tuesday AND Wednesday before Ascension (scan1:691); colitur built the
first two from the start and never the third. RG 88 keeps it out of the
Office, so the Ascension Vigil remains observed. RG 89 routes it through
the Major Litanies' rules, but RG 109's closed list names only maiores,
so by RG 107 it is an ORDINARY commemoration -- confirmed in the output,
not assumed. Name from the Missal's own "feria IV" (scan1:20495-20497),
violet to match the Monday and Tuesday offices.

Blast radius, full 1583-9999 sweep against the pre-change binary: 2257
days, every one the same shape, zero unclassified, line counts equal both
sides. The complement is the informative half -- in the other 6160 years
the Rogation does not appear at all, because RG 111 admits one
commemoration on a II-class day and an impeded feast takes it under RG
113, a Commemoration_only candidate having no row in RG 91's table. Both
shapes are pinned.

Allow-lists unmoved: layer 3 compares no commemorations and is blind by
construction, and layer 4's 2026-2027 window has a competing feast on
both Wednesdays, so the Rogation is capped out in exactly the years the
oracle can see. C8 is unchanged, asserted by its own count pin.

Not built: Sunday-relative specs, which nothing needs yet, and the
--overlay plumbing that would let a user actually supply a local movable
feast. Nth_weekday therefore ships with synthetic and property coverage
only; inventing a shipped entry to exercise it would be fabricating
calendar data.

<title>test(differential): fix round 1 -- Holy Week, Lent Ember, RG 69</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b0ff86ae552b90613be21c52433f4180deba7758</id>
<content type='text'>
Two Critical findings, both real: Holy Week (including the entire Sacred
Triduum) was reading Passion Week's Masses -- the original colitur_keys
widened lectio's single, conflated ini section into both weeks instead of
Passion week alone. Narrowed to Passion week only; Holy Week's own four
cleanest days (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday) are hand-authored
directly from the Missal, verified twice against both scans (C23); Holy
Wednesday and Good Friday are genuinely multi-lesson liturgies with no
single Epistle slot and are deliberately left unanswered, not guessed (C24).

The Lenten Ember days were still dead keys: Temporal_ef computes
ef-lent-ember-{wed,fri,sat}, lectio's ini names the same data
ef-lent-1-{wednesday,friday,saturday}, and colitur_keys never translated
it -- both engines independently fell through to the same wrong ferial
answer, so even the differential stayed green (C22, a genuine lectio bug
recorded for upstream). Fixed the instance and the class: colitur_keys
gained the rename, and tools/bootstrap_lectionary.ml gained
assert_reachable, sweeping Rite_ef.Temporal_ef.temporal at generation time
so a translation table entry naming a slug colitur never computes dies
loudly instead of shipping silently, plus an informational log of every
real slug with no entry at all.

C21 ("colitur's step 3 cannot reach a correct answer for the fixed
Christmastide slugs") is retired, superseded rather than merely patched:
the Nativity-Octave days now have their own direct Missal formulary
(Tit. 3,4-7/Luc. 2,15-20, "Diebus infra octavam Nativitatis Domini"),
resolved at step 2, not step 3 at all. That surfaced a real RG 69 gap
underneath it: a Sunday landing 26-31 December should keep its own Office,
not the fixed weekday placeholder, which Temporal_ef does not currently
distinguish. C6's verdict is re-opened (open, not colitur) for the 19 of
its 138 rows where this applies directly, and a new entry C25 (57 rows)
records the same gap propagating one hop further through step 3 into Holy
Name week. Both are out of this task's own scope -- a behaviour change to
a shared, multi-round-reviewed kernel-adjacent function -- and recorded,
not fixed, per the coordinator's own instruction.

C6's own note is rewritten in full rather than layered with another
correction; C18's stale trailing count is fixed to match its own pin; the
Vigil-misapplication risk flagged as a Minor closed itself once the
Nativity-Octave fix landed, confirmed by inspection rather than assumed.

<title>ef(lectionary): fix round 1 -- the step-4 guard, and a miscited authority</title>

<content type='text'>
Review re-verified all fifteen saints and all seven formularies against both
printings and found zero citation discrepancies, confirming the Gabriel
printing error and all three proper/Common reversals; the reordering was
adjudicated sound. Two Important findings, both about the guard rather than
the data.

IMPORTANT 1 -- the guard had no test, and a comment claimed it did.
`test_step4_never_diverts_a_temporal_office` asserted 2026-07-04 keeps its
ferial Mass and its comment claimed to "pin it behaviourally". It did not:
no shipped assignment names a temporal slug, so the guard is a NO-OP on
shipped data and that test passes with the guard removed. The reviewer
proved it by forcing `sanctoral_office = true` -- all 357 tests stayed
green. That mattered more than an ordinary missing test: the guard is the
structural claim the whole reordering argument leans on, and on a task with
no oracle the tests are the entire safety net.

Fixed by exposing `Commons.of_tables` (already present internally; it
applies exactly `load`'s validation, so a synthetic table is a well-formed
table with a WRONG assignment rather than malformed data the loader would
reject before the guard is reached -- and it is the constructor a future
diocesan overlay needs anyway), adding `day_with ~commons` beside `day`, and
writing test_step4_guard_refuses_a_common_assigned_to_a_ferial_slug: a
synthetic Commons assigning the Common of Abbots to
`ef-time-after-pentecost-5-saturday`, a really-observed ferial slug,
asserting 2026-07-04 still says its ferial Mass. Two checks, the first
making the second mean something -- it asserts the hostile assignment IS
present and resolvable, so the ferial Mass wins because the GUARD refused it
and not because the lookup missed. Mutation-verified: with the guard
disabled exactly one test fails, this one; before this round that mutation
reddened nothing. The old test is renamed
test_step4_leaves_a_temporal_office_alone_on_shipped_data and its comment
corrected to say it does not pin the guard.

IMPORTANT 2 -- the guard cited an authority that does not say what was
claimed. The comment said "[Validate] already asserts slug uniqueness per
liturgical year, so a sanctoral feast can never collide with a temporal
slug". validate.ml's check maps over `Temporal.office` slugs ONLY, compared
to each other across the days of one year; it says nothing about
cross-stream collision. An assumption was promoted to an asserted invariant
-- the exact defect class this project's citation discipline exists to
catch. Rewritten to state it as an assumption (no sanctoral slug carries the
`ef-` prefix every temporal slug does; 0 of 327 today), to quote the real
authority verbatim (validate.ml's own note that this "is the same assumption
the rest of this codebase already leans on"), to carry a CORRECTED marker
naming the wrong citation so it is not re-derived, and to record the failure
mode if it ever broke: benign and one-directional -- a colliding saint is
denied his Common and falls through to steps 2/3, i.e. to exactly the answer
the unguarded chain would have given him. No day gains a reading it should
not have.

MINOR -- the previous commit body led with "Blast radius, measured ... ZERO
differing lines", which is true but oversold: the CLI prints no citations, so
that sweep is STRUCTURALLY INCAPABLE of observing the reorder or any citation
value. It is a valid negative control for the sanctoral `Edit` overlay and
nothing else. The evidence for the reorder is mutation 1 (relegating step 4
to last reddens exactly the four step-4 pins) plus those pins' own explicit
expected values -- not the sweep. Correcting the record here.

MINOR -- test_commons_load_rejects_bad_data wrote four FIXED-name files into
the temp dir and removed none, colliding across concurrent runs. Replaced
with a local `with_temp_file` copied from test_lectionary.ml's own
(`Filename.temp_file` + `Fun.protect ~finally`); the four labels moved into
the assertion messages where they belonged. Verified zero leftovers after a
full run.

MINOR -- added the sharper argument for the reorder, which makes the
deviation obviously right rather than merely well-evidenced, and it now LEADS
the branch comment as warrant (1), with the Missal citation demoted to a
corroborating warrant (2): step 4 is STEP 1'S CONTINUATION. Step 1 already
runs the observed office's own proper ahead of steps 2 and 3; step 4 is that
same rule for the saints whose readings the Missal keeps in a Common instead
of printing on the celebration. Placing it last would have made the chain
internally inconsistent with code that already existed -- St Joseph beating a
competing temporal entry because his readings sit on his Celebration.t, and
St Vincent Ferrer losing to one because his sit one indirection away. Nothing
in the rubrics draws that distinction; it is an artefact of where colitur
stores the data. So the plan's ordering did not merely disagree with the
data, it contradicted step 1.

358 tests green (357 before), 359 with the exhaustive sweep.

Fifteen class-3 saints had no readings anywhere in colitur -- the 6 March -
5 April cluster whose RANKS lectio's generator fix of 2026-08-12 restored
without backfilling readings, and lectio has no Commons concept to have
backfilled them from. They are exactly the fifteen `status Feast` entries in
data/ef/sanctoral.sexp carrying `(citations ())`.

The Missal splits them eight/seven, and NOT as the plan predicted. It
expected propers for Benedict, Patrick, Thomas Aquinas and Gregory the
Great; only Thomas Aquinas has one. Benedict ("Missa Os iusti, de Communi
Abbatum"), Patrick ("Missa Statuit, de Communi Confessoris Pontificis I
loco") and Gregory the Great ("Missa Si diligis me, de Communi unius aut
plurium Summorum Pontificum") are all sent to a Common, with only Oratio,
Secreta and Postcommunio printed at the date. All three reversals verified
on the page images (pp. 488, 492) as well as in both OCR text layers.

PROPERS (data/ef/adjustments.sexp, `Edit ... Set_citation`):
  thomas-aquinas         7 Mar  Sap 7:7-14      / Mt 5:13-19
  john-of-god            8 Mar  Eccli 31:8-11   / Mt 22:34-46
  forty-holy-martyrs    10 Mar  Hebr 11:33-39   / Luc 6:17-23
  cyril-of-jerusalem    18 Mar  Eccli 39:6-14   / Mt 10:23-28
  gabriel-the-archangel 24 Mar  Dan 9:21-26     / Luc 1:26-38
  john-damascene        27 Mar  Sap 10:10-17    / Luc 6:6-11
  john-of-capistrano    28 Mar  Sap 10:10-14    / Luc 9:1-6
  francis-of-paola       2 Apr  Philipp 3:7-12  / Luc 12:32-34

COMMONS (data/ef/commons.sexp), each quoting the Missal's own instruction at
the saint's date:
  sts-felicitas-perpetua  6 Mar  non Virginum I   Eccli 51:1-8,12 / Mt 13:44-52
  frances-rome            9 Mar  non Virginum II  Prov 31:10-31   / Mt 13:44-52
  gregory-the-great      12 Mar  Summ. Pontificum 1 Petri 5:1-4,10-11 / Mt 16:13-19
  patrick                17 Mar  Conf. Pont. I    Eccli 44:16-27;45:3-20 / Mt 25:14-23
  benedict               21 Mar  Abbatum          Eccli 45:1-6    / Mt 19:27-29
  isidore-of-seville      4 Apr  Doctorum         2 Tim 4:1-8     / Mt 5:13-19
  vincent-ferrer          5 Apr  Conf. non Pont. I Eccli 31:8-11  / Luc 12:35-40

Every value read in three independent places -- both OCR text layers (two
DIFFERENT printings, whose Commune Sanctorum pagination differs by 1-2, so
the data keys on heading plus Mass incipit and never on the bracketed page
number) and the rendered page images. That caught a genuine typographical
error in one printing: it gives St Gabriel's Gospel as "Luc. 2, 26-38" (on
the page image, so not an OCR artefact). Luke 1:26-38 is settled by the
other printing, by the pericope text in both, and by the SAME edition citing
the identical pericope correctly two pages later at the Annunciation.

Step 4 EXECUTES SECOND (order 1, 4, 2, 3), not last as the plan sketched.
Measured: every day on which one of the fifteen is actually the observed
office already has a non-empty step-2 or step-3 answer waiting, so a step 4
placed after the ferial fallback is unreachable on every date in 1583-9999 --
and wrong where it would fire (2038-03-06 would emit Septuagesima II
Saturday's Mass on a day whose office is Sts Perpetua and Felicity). Step 4
is also the only step in the chain with a direct primary-source warrant: the
Missal names the Mass at each such saint's own date, while steps 2 and 3 rest
only on lectio's observed behaviour. Guarded so it can never divert a day
whose observed office IS its temporal office -- ferias, Sundays, the Triduum
and the RG 78 Saturday Office of the BVM (which deliberately shares the
ferial slug) are structurally excluded. Step NUMBERS are unchanged so every
"step 3" already written down still names the same branch.

The Commons are caller-supplied, like the lectionary: `Rite_ef.context` gains
a REQUIRED `~commons`, not an optional one -- a silently-defaulted empty
table would give a rite whose class-3 saints quietly lose their Mass, and
nothing in layers 3-5 compares citations, so that loss would be invisible.
`Commons.load` rejects the four defects indistinguishable downstream from
"this saint has no Common": duplicate common id, duplicate assignment, empty
formulary, assignment naming a common that does not exist.

KNOWN LIMITS, recorded rather than papered over. There is no oracle: lectio
has no readings for these feasts and missalemeum's 2026-2027 window never
observes one of the fifteen. Eight of the fifteen are NEVER the observed
office anywhere in the domain (10-28 March always falls to a Lenten or
Passiontide feria that outranks a III-class feast), so they have no
end-to-end witness and are covered by dedicated table tests instead. The
Commune Sanctorum's own opening rubric permits any Epistle or Gospel of a
Common in any Mass of that Common unless one is assigned, so what is emitted
is the reading PRINTED WITH the named formulary, not the only lawful one;
labelled alternatives (e.g. the widow's Epistle 1 Tim 5:3-10, squarely
available to St Frances of Rome) are noted in the data and deliberately not
encoded. The BVM Common is NOT authored: the RG 78 Saturday Office shares the
ordinary ferial slug, so assigning a Common to it would hand the BVM Mass to
every feria sharing that slug; routing it needs a subject-keyed lookup and a
season-keyed choice among the Missal's five "Missae de sancta Maria in
sabbato" -- new behaviour, not new data. It currently emits its feria's Mass,
now pinned as such.

Blast radius, measured (git archive HEAD binary vs HEAD, full 1583-9999
`colitur day` sweep, diffed): ZERO differing lines, 3 074 246 lines each
side, byte-identical -- the CLI prints no citations, so this change is
invisible to layers 2-5 by construction, and the sanctoral overlay perturbed
nothing else.

357 tests green (344 before), 358 with the exhaustive sweep. Mutation-tested
six ways, all reverted after confirming: relegating step 4 to last reddens
exactly the four step-4 pins and nothing else; corrupting a Common's citation,
dropping an assignment, dropping a proper Edit, and corrupting either an
unreachable proper or an unreachable Common each redden their own pins. The
load-bearing assertion is stated over the loaded layer rather than a
hard-coded list: every sanctoral entry that can ever BE the observed office
now has either a proper or an assigned Common -- fifteen failures before,
zero after, and a future re-bootstrap adding a readingless class-3 feast
fails there instead of silently emitting its feria's Mass.

<content type='text'>
Three Important findings, all traceable to the task-5 brief rather than
the implementation itself; all confirmed against the real data and the
real resolver before fixing, not taken on trust.

1. test_step3_uses_temporal_not_observed (2028-12-26) did not exercise
   step 3 at all: 26 December is always Stephen, a real sanctoral entry
   with its own citations, so that date resolves entirely at step 1.
   Its justifying comment was also wrong -- 24 December's TEMPORAL slug
   is ef-nativity-vigil, IDENTICAL to its observed slug (Temporal_ef.named
   hard-codes the Vigil for that date ahead of any Sunday computation),
   so there was never a temporal/observed split on that date to exploit.
   Replaced with 2025-02-03: 2 February 2025 (Sunday) is observed as the
   Purification (own citations Mal 3:1-4 / Luke 2:22-32) but its TEMPORAL
   identity is ef-time-after-epiphany-sunday-4 (Rom 13:8-10 / Matt
   8:23-27, a different lectionary entry); 3 February has no proper of
   its own and reaches step 3, which must return the Sunday's TEMPORAL
   reading, not the Purification's. Verified against
   data/ef/sanctoral.sexp and data/ef/lectionary.sexp directly.

2. The termination-argument comment in lectionary_ef.ml (and its echo in
   lectionary_ef.mli) claimed an unguarded Sunday would loop. It would
   not: readings is not recursive -- step 3's fallback is one flat
   Lectionary.find, never a re-entrant call into readings -- so an
   unguarded Sunday would just repeat step 2's own already-failed lookup
   once (same pure inputs, same None) and return [] normally. Rewritten
   to say what is actually true: the guard exists because a Sunday has
   no PRECEDING Sunday to resume, not because skipping it would be
   dangerous; the chain terminates because every step consults data or a
   strictly earlier date, and no step ever calls back into readings.

3. Correcting the record, per instruction, rather than amending
   ba0adba: that commit's own body said Advent ferias carry 'Advent I's
   own readings copied onto the following Monday-Thursday'. Both details
   are wrong, verified directly against data/ef/lectionary.sexp: the
   duplicated readings are ef-advent-SUNDAY-2's (Rom 15:4-13 / Matt
   11:2-10), not Advent I's, and they appear on ef-advent-2-monday,
   -tuesday, -thursday and -saturday -- four non-contiguous days, not a
   Monday-to-Thursday span. The in-code comment and the task-5 brief's
   own commit template both already said 'Advent II' correctly; only
   ba0adba's commit body had the error.

dune test --force: 344 tests, all green (unchanged count -- one test's
body changed, none added or removed).

<title>ef(lectionary): a feria says the preceding Sunday's Mass</title>

Chain step 3. Guarded on weekday &lt;&gt; Sun: a Sunday reaching this branch
would look up its own slug via days_since_sunday Sun = 0 and loop --
every other chain step consults data, this one consults a strictly
earlier date, so that guard is the whole chain's termination argument.
Reaches the Sunday by Date.add_days plus a fresh temporal_at call, never
by string surgery on the day's own slug -- the slug shapes are genuinely
inconsistent across seasons (ef-advent-sunday-1 vs ef-advent-1-monday,
week number on opposite sides of the season name).

Uses the preceding Sunday's TEMPORAL slug, never its observed one: the
rubric is the preceding Sunday's Mass even in a year a feast displaced
that Sunday from being observed (pinned: 2028-12-26, the Monday after a
Vigil-displaced Advent IV Sunday, still takes Advent IV's Mass).

Measured over the full 1583-9999 domain (temporal cycle only, no
sanctoral contest): of 412 distinct temporal slugs, 305 carry no
lectionary entry of their own; of the 304 that are feria (non-Sunday)
slugs, step 3 alone resolves 297 of them via their preceding Sunday.
The 7 that remain, plus the 1 uncovered Sunday slug itself
(ef-holy-name-sunday), all trace to the same two missing lectionary
entries (Holy Name Sunday and 30 December), not to eight independent
gaps or a step-3 defect -- traced date-by-date, not merely counted.
Day-level effect, 2005-2050 (full Precedence+Calendar pipeline,
matching this project's existing differential window): 16807 days,
16531 resolved (98.36%), 276 still empty; step 3 alone accounts for
4503 of the resolved days, more than either step 1 or step 2.

Warrant is the same class as step 2's, not a confirmed Missal
citation: lectio hard-codes this shape as literal duplicated data on
the four Advent ferias (Advent I's own readings copied onto the
following Monday-Thursday) and leaves the rest of that same shape
simply absent; step 3 turns the duplication into a rule.

dune test --force: 344 tests, all green (was 340).

<title>kernel+ef: fix round 1 -- lectionary caller-supplied, not eager</title>

Critical (coordinator review): a clean `dune build` produced a `colitur`
that died at startup on EVERY subcommand, including ones touching no
lectionary data at all. Root cause was two-fold: data/ef/lectionary.sexp was
never added to the root default-build alias (only materialised as a side
effect of the test suite's own deps, which is why every check in the prior
report passed), and Rite_ef.context loaded it as a module-init side effect
via failwith, undoing Lectionary.load's own "never raises" promise at a
point no caller could catch.

Fixed structurally: Rite_ef.context is now a function taking ~lectionary,
Lectionary_ef.readings takes ~lectionary, and neither touches the filesystem
any more -- the same caller-supplied discipline the sanctoral layer already
had, restoring rite_ef.mli's own pre-existing claim about it and leaving a
seam for a future diocesan lectionary overlay. bin/main.ml grows
load_ef_lectionary, a sibling of load_ef_layer, routed through the same
colitur: %s / exit 2 path. data/ef/lectionary.sexp added to the root default
alias. Every caller of Rite_ef.context updated to supply it.

Also: two new tests that genuinely distinguish chain step 1 from step 2
(19 March 2026, Joseph's own proper over a competing temporal entry; 13
January 2030, Holy Family reached only through the temporal slug, the
Baptism entirely absent) -- the prior two tests both survived swapping the
chain order. Both new pins verified directly against the real data. The
chain's own comment now states plainly that its warrant is lectio's observed
behaviour, not a confirmed Missal citation, per the rules register's own
open item.

<title>kernel+ef: resolve readings, chain steps 1 and 2</title>

Liturgical_day.citations has read "always empty until Plan 4" since Plan 3;
it is now filled. Rite.t gains a readings function, rite-supplied for the
same reason transfer_target is: what a day with no proper falls back to is a
rubric, not a universal. Calendar calls it and passes its own temporal
function as the callback the rite needs to reach another date.

Steps 1 and 2 only: the observed celebration's own proper, else the day's own
temporal slug. Nothing encodes "Lent has daily propers" -- the presence of an
entry is the discriminator.

<title>docs: a confidence raised while its revisit trigger was deleted</title>

Five follow-ups from the fix-round re-review, none touching a computed
result.

M20's note had said "moderate-high, not certain" with a specific revisit
trigger attached. The fix round raised the label to "near-certain" and
deleted the trigger in the same edit. Upgrading a confidence while
removing the condition that would lower it again is the one move this
record must not make, so the trigger is restored alongside the higher
label: no primary text anywhere names the Major Litanies in a
Mass-orations-count worked example, only the general II-class-Sunday
rule twice over. RG 434(b) closes the Office-shaped doubt and nothing
further.

"WORD-IDENTICAL" overstated the relation between RG 111(b) and n.
434(b). Only the trailing "quae tamen omittitur si commemoratio
privilegiata facienda sit" is verbatim in both; the openings differ,
n. 434(b) recasting the rule into the orations register. The claim was
self-refuting -- both texts are quoted adjacent to it -- and the
argument never depended on it. Now "identical in its operative clause".

And n. 434 is not "a different part of the same document": the running
heads put RG 111 under Rubricae generales and n. 434 under Rubricae
generales Missalis Romani, two distinct corpora bound in one volume,
which is the entire force of the corroboration. The code comment had
understated its own point.

Also corrects the register's LT line range for n. 434(b) (3574-3576, not
3564-3570; the (b) clause is not in the cited range), and records in
calendar.ml the diagnostic that channel (3) trades away: a rite whose
transfer_target names a date its own disposition omits used to raise a
loud, mislabelled Validate failure and is now silent at the origin. The
kernel cannot distinguish that from a deliberate omission without rite
knowledge it must not have, so accepting it is right -- but the signal
is gone, and that should be written down rather than discovered later.
