 The actual `status:in-progress` flip is owned by `lisa:github-build-intake` (claim) and `lisa:github-agent`. The `status:code-review` flip is owned by `lisa:github-evidence`. The `status:done` flip is typically owned by merge automation or PM. This skill never relabels.
 
+### Step 5: Parent Status Rollup (`--rollup`)
+
+When invoked with `--rollup`, this skill **derives a parent/container issue's `status:*` label from the roll-up of its child sub-issues** instead of posting a milestone update on a leaf. This implements the GitHub sub-issue-completion arm of the **Parent status rollup (the state machine)** section of the `leaf-only-lifecycle` rule — cite that rule, do not restate the policy. It is the sync-side complement to the write-time labeling (`lisa:github-write-issue`), the validate-time S15 gate (`lisa:github-validate-issue`), and the claim-time gate (`lisa:github-build-intake`); all four cite the same rule so the classification never drifts.
+
+**Resolve the child set the same way `lisa:github-read-issue` does** — native sub-issues via GraphQL, each with its `status:*` label and open/closed state:
+
+```bash
+gh api graphql -f query='
+  query($owner:String!,$repo:String!,$number:Int!){
+    repository(owner:$owner,name:$repo){
+      issue(number:$number){
+        number title state
+        subIssues(first:100){ nodes { number state labels(first:20){ nodes { name } } } }
+      }
+    }
+  }' -F owner=<org> -F repo=<repo> -F number=<parent-number>
+```
+
+If the `subIssues` field is unavailable (older GHES), fall back to body parentage exactly as `lisa:github-read-issue` does. If the issue has **no** children it is a leaf, not a parent — rollup is N/A; behave as a normal milestone sync.
+
+**Evaluate the required children in priority order and take the first match** (canonical roles from `config-resolution`; the GitHub label map is `status:blocked`, `status:in-progress`, `status:code-review`, `status:done`):
+
+| If among the required child leaves… | Derived parent role | GitHub label |
+|---|---|---|
+| any child carries `status:blocked` (or is otherwise blocked) | `blocked` | `status:blocked` |
+| else any child carries `status:in-progress` **or** `status:code-review` | `claimed` | `status:in-progress` |
+| else **all** required children are terminal (closed / `status:done`) | `done` | the configured terminal `done` label |
+| else (children exist, none started) | — | unchanged — parent keeps its non-ready container label |
+
+- **Blocked dominates** — a single blocked child surfaces `status:blocked` on the parent even while siblings progress, so a human sees the parent needs attention.
+- **"Required" children only** — a child labelled won't-do / optional does not hold the parent open; only leaves that must ship count toward the all-terminal check.
+- **Recursive** — a parent reaches `done` only when its children are all terminal; an Epic reaches `done` only when its Stories have themselves rolled up to `done`. Evaluate bottom-up.
+- **Never set the parent to `status:ready`** — `ready` is leaf-only (the human "claim this" signal). Rollup only moves the parent between non-ready container labels.
+
+**Single-environment collapse (this repo).** `.lisa.config.json` `deploy.branches` declares only `production: main`, so the terminal `done` resolves to the single label `status:done` — there is no `status:on-dev` / `status:on-stg` and **no dev → staging → prod promotion chain**. Resolve the terminal via the env-keyed `done` logic in `config-resolution`, but in the single-environment case it collapses to the one `status:done` value; the rollup never attempts to resolve a dev or staging `done`. Projects that DO have multiple environments keep the env-keyed map and roll the parent up to whichever `done` matches the environment its leaves shipped to.
+
+**Apply the derived label** (only when it differs from the parent's current `status:*`): remove the parent's existing `status:*` label and add the derived one, keeping exactly one `status:*` label so the build-queue invariant holds. Post an idempotent `[claude-sync] rollup` comment naming the derived state and the child tally (e.g. `3/4 leaves terminal, 1 blocked → status:blocked`); skip the comment if an identical one is already the most recent rollup comment.
+
+```bash
+gh issue edit <parent-number> --repo <org>/<repo> \
+  --remove-label "<current status:*>" --add-label "<derived status:*>"
+```
+
+**Safe default.** If rollup cannot be applied automatically (e.g. ambiguous required-set, GraphQL hierarchy unavailable, or a derived terminal that the env logic cannot resolve), this skill does **not** guess — it posts the derived suggestion as a comment and leaves the parent's label untouched. No unsafe transition is ever made.
+

+
+- **Blocked dominates** — one blocked leaf surfaces blocked on the parent even while others progress.
+- **The parent never carries `ready`** — `ready` is a human "claim this leaf" signal; rollup only moves a parent between non-ready container states.
+- **Rollup is recursive** — an Epic rolls up from its Stories, each of which rolls up from its own leaves. Evaluate bottom-up.
+- **The terminal is the configured env-keyed `done`** — multi-env projects roll up to whichever `done` value matches the env their leaves shipped to (see `config-resolution` "Env-keyed `done`"). **Single-environment collapse (this repo):** `deploy.branches` declares only `production: main`, so `done` is a single value and the lifecycle collapses to `ready → claimed (in-progress) → review (code-review) → done`; the rollup terminal is simply `done` (or the PRD-side `ticketed` for PRD containers), with **no** dev/staging promotion hops and **no** env-keyed multi-entry chain to resolve.
+
+**Safe-by-default when not yet supported.** A vendor sync path that has not implemented native rollup MUST be a documented no-op that surfaces the derived state as a suggestion/comment rather than guessing a transition — never an unsafe default. Without `--rollup`, the sync skills behave exactly as before (milestone comment on the work item; no parent derivation).
+
 ## Rules
 
 - Idempotent updates — running sync at the same milestone twice should not produce duplicate comments. Vendor skills enforce this.
 - Never auto-transition the underlying state. Linear's label-based transition (`status:*`) is the canonical signal and is updated only when the caller passes `--update-label`. Native states stay as suggestions.
+- Parent rollup derives state from children per the `leaf-only-lifecycle` rule; it never sets a parent to `ready` and never resolves a dev/staging `done` in this single-environment repo.

+
+- **Blocked dominates** — a single blocked child surfaces `status:blocked` on the parent even while siblings progress, so a human sees the parent needs attention.
+- **"Required" children only** — a child labelled won't-do / optional does not hold the parent open; only leaves that must ship count toward the all-terminal check.
+- **Recursive** — a parent reaches `done` only when its children are all terminal; an Epic reaches `done` only when its Stories have themselves rolled up to `done`. Evaluate bottom-up.
+- **Never set the parent to `status:ready`** — `ready` is leaf-only (the human "claim this" signal). Rollup only moves the parent between non-ready container labels.
+
+**Single-environment collapse (this repo).** `.lisa.config.json` `deploy.branches` declares only `production: main`, so the terminal `done` resolves to the single label `status:done` — there is no `status:on-dev` / `status:on-stg` and **no dev → staging → prod promotion chain**. Resolve the terminal via the env-keyed `done` logic in `config-resolution`, but in the single-environment case it collapses to the one `status:done` value; the rollup never attempts to resolve a dev or staging `done`. Projects that DO have multiple environments keep the env-keyed map and roll the parent up to whichever `done` matches the environment its leaves shipped to.
+
+**Apply the derived label** (only when it differs from the parent's current `status:*`): remove the parent's existing `status:*` label and add the derived one, keeping exactly one `status:*` label so the build-queue invariant holds. Post an idempotent `[claude-sync] rollup` comment naming the derived state and the child tally (e.g. `3/4 leaves terminal, 1 blocked → status:blocked`); skip the comment if an identical one is already the most recent rollup comment.
+
+```bash
+gh issue edit <parent-number> --repo <org>/<repo> \
+  --remove-label "<current status:*>" --add-label "<derived status:*>"
+```
+
+**Safe default.** If rollup cannot be applied automatically (e.g. ambiguous required-set, GraphQL hierarchy unavailable, or a derived terminal that the env logic cannot resolve), this skill does **not** guess — it posts the derived suggestion as a comment and leaves the parent's label untouched. No unsafe transition is ever made.

+## Parent status rollup (`--rollup`)
+
+When the caller passes `--rollup` after the milestone, the dispatch target additionally **derives the parent/container's lifecycle state from its children** instead of acting on the work item directly. This is the vendor-neutral implementation of the **Parent status rollup (the state machine)** section of the `leaf-only-lifecycle` rule — cite that rule, do not restate the policy here. The shim is dispatch only; the rollup mechanics live in the vendor sync skill (`lisa:github-sync`, `lisa:jira-sync`, `lisa:linear-sync`), which resolves child membership via its `*-read-*` skill and evaluates the state machine below.
+
+The state machine (first match wins, evaluated over the **required** leaves only):
+
+| If among the required leaves… | …the parent rolls up to | Role |
+|---|---|---|
+| any leaf is **blocked** | blocked / attention-needed | `blocked` |
+| else any leaf is **in progress** (claimed or in review) | active / in-progress | `claimed` |
+| else **all** required leaves are **terminal** | the configured rollup terminal | `done` (or `review` where supported) |
+| else (leaves exist, none started) | unchanged | — |
+
+- **Blocked dominates** — one blocked leaf surfaces blocked on the parent even while others progress.
+- **The parent never carries `ready`** — `ready` is a human "claim this leaf" signal; rollup only moves a parent between non-ready container states.
+- **Rollup is recursive** — an Epic rolls up from its Stories, each of which rolls up from its own leaves. Evaluate bottom-up.
+- **The terminal is the configured env-keyed `done`** — multi-env projects roll up to whichever `done` value matches the env their leaves shipped to (see `config-resolution` "Env-keyed `done`"). **Single-environment collapse (this repo):** `deploy.branches` declares only `production: main`, so `done` is a single value and the lifecycle collapses to `ready → claimed (in-progress) → review (code-review) → done`; the rollup terminal is simply `done` (or the PRD-side `ticketed` for PRD containers), with **no** dev/staging promotion hops and **no** env-keyed multi-entry chain to resolve.
+
+**Safe-by-default when not yet supported.** A vendor sync path that has not implemented native rollup MUST be a documented no-op that surfaces the derived state as a suggestion/comment rather than guessing a transition — never an unsafe default. Without `--rollup`, the sync skills behave exactly as before (milestone comment on the work item; no parent derivation).
+
 ## Rules
 
 - Idempotent updates — running sync at the same milestone twice should not produce duplicate comments. Vendor skills enforce this.
 - Never auto-transition the underlying state. Linear's label-based transition (`status:*`) is the canonical signal and is updated only when the caller passes `--update-label`. Native states stay as suggestions.
+- Parent rollup derives state from children per the `leaf-only-lifecycle` rule; it never sets a parent to `ready` and never resolves a dev/staging `done` in this single-environment repo.
