Seven Driver citations came back with the merged branches. Each keeps its
engineering reason and its date, and loses the speaker: the overlap report, the
poster's legend rule, the network-change defect, the chart's provenance.
check:plural-forms crashed rather than failed. It built its locale list by
listing the catalogue directory, so a README.md moved in beside the locale
folders became a 'locale', passed the exists check because a file does exist,
and crashed readdirSync on a non-directory. It now filters to directories. The
gate on development has the same line and only survives because that README is
not there yet -- so this is a fix for development, not a merge artefact.
Both found by running the full 103-gate chain; the shortened chain the merge
produced ran neither.
Ten agents read today's branch (five finders, one skeptic per area who had to confirm each finding
against the current code); 21 distinct defects survived. All are fixed here.
Generator and its proof
- generateCountrySheet fed only ADM0, so a country beside India or China printed without their
provinces (Nepal: 251 KB against Node's 921 KB). It loads the full boundary set, as the driver does.
- check:poster-browser-equiv rebuilt its own feed, so it could not see that. It now calls what the
browser calls (makeZoneSheet, generateCountrySheet — Nepal), deletes the target before the Node run,
runs Node with a clean environment, and FAILS (not "not measured") when the Node generator breaks.
Proven two-sided: it fails with the ADM1 fix reverted.
- The facts table's country list sorted in the reader's browser locale; pinned to en-US (Node's
default, so Node's output still hashes to the baseline).
- zone-sheet-print.js imports the library relatively, so bun, Node and the bundler resolve it alike.
Print seams and wiring
- The wall's Poster Map button used its own stored-file fetch and never the generated sheet, so every
country poster 404'd on the published tree; it now prints the generated sheet first.
- Country Posters wall: card stocks passed (its Card Deck could never print), iso3-names passed (zh/ar
page 1 kept English names), the stored fallback reads previews/ (where the tree serves them).
- Card-stock labels render at render time, so a locale change relabels them.
- The records provider caches by language AND list, and does not keep a failed membership load.
- The UPG-100 legend's Card Deck returns quietly on a parent row instead of an evaluator error; the
selection fetch uses PRINT_FIELDS.
Packet
- The centered-set caption counts what is DRAWN (a ring too full to separate reports its remainder).
- Each ring's number lane is sized to its own radius (ring 1 put a dot under its badge).
- Per-box line keeps a decimal below 10 people ("≈ 0" for small lists); worksheet rows name the country;
the localized poster kicker is fitted against the poster's real 19px, not 22.
Plurals and gates
- regions.countryCount / regionCount were authored in English zero|one|other order in de, es, fr, hi, it
and pt, so CLDR picked "27 Land", "1 países". Rewritten in each locale's own order; check:plural-forms
now fails a string in English order (proven on the old German string).
- check:optional-t-equivalence (gates:post) crashed on the new plural fallback's imports; it injects the
real cldrChoiceIndex and asserts the plural path (ru 21/3/5, en 0/1/7).
- check:packets-all and check-packet-render counted people as cards only, so every lightweight packet
read as "a packet of nobody"; worksheet rows count, and the browser gate checks the grid's top fill
(the renamed .lc-frame) instead of the retired scatter. check:packet-variants now reads the grid itself
— 5,200 boxes, Jesus' 1,716 from the top, the % shading from the top — proven: it fails on a renderer
that shades the last boxes.
gates:pre 68/68, check:optional-t-equivalence PASS, both bundles build.
vue-i18n v9 pluralizes by an English-shaped INDEX and applies it to every
locale. Measured on a real instance, authoring 'a | b | c':
ru n=0 -> the ONE form, n=2 -> the MANY form CLDR: 0=many, 2=few
ar n=3, 11, 100 -> ALL the dual form CLDR: few, many, other
That is confidently wrong grammar that looks translated, which is worse than
the single fixed form the regions summary shipped until now. upg100 proposed a
plural key and was correctly refused on this exact ground
(upg-100-list.vue:3006) — "real plural support needs a pluralRules map at
createI18n". The refusal's premise was the missing map, so this adds it.
THE PRECONDITION SWEEP (dx-shepherd), before installing anything: every
catalogue value containing " | " across all 11 locales, and every call site
passing a plural choice.
pipe keys: wall.prayedCount, wall.havePrayed — and ONLY in en. Every other
locale ships a pipe-free label form ("Помолились: {n}").
call sites: exactly two, both in wall-of-people-groups
(CommentsDialog.vue:36, wallCanvas.js:198).
BEFORE/AFTER, 2 keys x 11 locales x n = 0,1,2,3,11,100:
132 renders compared, 0 CHANGED.
Zero changed because the map is SCOPED TO EXCLUDE en, which is the one locale
holding pipe strings today. en is also the case dx-shepherd's assertion (3) is
about: vue-i18n's 3-form default is zero|one|many while CLDR for en is
one|other, so an en string written "none | one | {n}" would change meaning at
n=0. Leaving en out means it cannot.
★ THE BUG I SHIPPED INTO MY OWN FIRST DRAFT, caught by reading the rendered
Russian rather than by any assertion: the index was taken against the fixed
zero|one|two|few|many|other list, which is only correct for a locale that HAS
all six. ru has {one, few, many, other} — no zero, no two — so 'few' sat at
global index 3 while the authored string holds it at 1, and n=2/n=3 rendered
"2 стран" instead of "2 страны". ARABIC HID IT COMPLETELY, being the one locale
that does have all six, so its two indexes coincide. The index is now computed
against each locale's OWN category subset, and ru/ro are authored in that order.
ar 0 لا دول · 1 دولة واحدة · 2 دولتان · 3 دول · 11 دولة · 100 دولة
ru 0 стран · 1 страна · 2 страны · 3 страны · 11 стран · 100 стран
(regionCount likewise; all six categories distinct in ar, all three in ru)
check:plural-forms carries studio's three assertions, each mutation-tested to
fail: FORM COUNT (a 2-form ru string fails against its 4 categories), the
tStatic PATH (reading a pipe key through tStatic fails — tStatic does no
selection at all, so the page would show the literal "a | b | c"), and ZERO (a
5-form ar string fails because ar has an explicit zero category). Every mutated
file restored byte-identical afterwards.
The regions shim gains tc(key, n). t() resolves through tm()+rt(), and rt()
takes a message only — there is nowhere to pass the choice — so a pipe string
would come back whole. tc goes through vue-i18n's own t(key, named, choice).
Registered in all three places and VERIFIED by re-reading the parsed
package.json, not by trusting the replace: my last gate registration silently
no-opped on two of three anchors and studio caught it at the landing.
