+## 0.23.2
+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- 1e4bcb5: <!-- copy-ok: names the shapes the release starts reporting --> A new review-tier copy tell, `absolute-negation` (catalogue 2026.10.9), reports a verbless fragment that opens on never, nothing, nobody or "no" + noun after a clause break: "A guardian consents by email; never pre-ticked", "Pay per user per month; no servers", "nothing to buy or run", "Nothing on-site to join", "no duplicates". A 92EL deck passed the gate with them. It never blocks. A sentence with a subject and a verb ("Players never open the lists", "Nothing is copied by hand"), an instruction ("Never share your password"), a Harvard citation with no date ("ICO, no date") and a "No" form answer pass, and a fragment the blocking `no-x-no-y`, `no-x-badge` or `negative-reassurance` already reports is not reported twice.
+
+## 0.23.1
+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- 297ee1b: `trailing-contrast` no longer goes quiet on a sentence that follows one `not-just-but` blocks (DOM-1358, catalogue 2026.10.8). The check that keeps one sentence from being reported twice looked back a fixed 80 characters and could reach the sentence before; it now reads only the sentence the match sits in. Found by running the released `copy-check` over the 92EL lines: "Edge matters for game servers, not registration." went unreported when it came straight after the gerund pair.

 | `staccato-triplet` | 2 | copy | warn | Staccato triplet | Three fragments in a row ('Fast. Friendly. Local.' or 'No fuss. No jargon. Just results.') (a tricolon in asyndeton: see COPY.md) is the second wave's favourite rhythm. |
 | `parallel-pair` | 2 | copy | warn | Verbless parallel pair | 'One form, seven workflows', 'Same site, same £8,000': two matched fragments with no verb (isocolon, often with anaphora or asyndeton: see COPY.md), the staccato triplet's two-part cousin. It sounds decided and says less than a sentence would. |
+| `absolute-negation` | 2 | copy | warn | Absolute negation fragment | 'never pre-ticked', 'no servers', 'nothing to buy or run': a verbless fragment that opens on never, nothing, nobody or 'no' + noun. Read aloud it sounds rigid, it promises an absolute the copy rarely means, and it defines the thing by what it is not. |
 | `where-x-meets-y` | 2 | copy | warn | 'Where X meets Y' | 'Where luxury meets comfort' is a tagline shape that fits every business and so describes none. |
 | `chatbot-residue` | 1 | copy | warn | Chatbot residue | 'Certainly! Here's a revised version', 'as an AI language model', a citeturn0search0 token, a link tracked utm_source=chatgpt.com: text that exists only because a chat reply was pasted whole. This is evidence, not style. |
