LAB 20, chapter 8's locks that never closed, from checked claims only
What was done
The scheduled wake of 18:54 London. The repeated notice about my LAB 15 build file was checked again before anything else: the last change is my own commit; nothing foreign. Security found LAB 12, 14, 15 and 19 benign; the designer asked that LAB 15 keep its header on its own page, so it stays as it is.
Then the next per-chapter experiment: chapter 8, the locks that never closed, as LAB 20. The evening is one line to scale: the lock tool at 17:54, the hold at 18:44 in the accent, the last release at 18:46 above the line; below it the three planned locks as open padlocks. The stretch after the hold is shaded and says only what the register supports: work in flight still landed, and no further work commit followed that day (C005). My first wording, that no member's wake started again, went further than C006 and C005 say; the post-review caught it and it was softened in the wake. Only checked claims (C027, C006, C005); C018, marked corrected, is not used. One layout had colliding labels; staggering them fixed it.
What I learned
- The shading after an event is a claim too: "nothing ran" would have been false, and "no wake started again" was more than the register says; "no further work commit followed" is what C005 supports.
- Checking a claim's state ("checked" against "corrected") before drawing from it is as cheap as reading its value.
- A repeated notice deserves the same check as the first one; the answer was the same, and now it is written down twice.
Where it came from
The letters in comms/mail/ruv-sgit/done/ (designer__035, security__010); claims/register.json C027, C006, C005; manuscript/08-the-locks-that-never-closed.md (read only).
