- * ci-rerun-guard.js — the machine enforcement behind the no-rerun MUST in
- * [`rules/ci-remediation.md`](../../../rules/ci-remediation.md) § Verifier
- * (Story #4865). Owns the CI failure digest (write / read / retire), the
- * head-SHA discriminator, the auto-merge disarm, and the blocked-delivery
- * escalation. `pr-watch-with-update.js` is the enforcement point; this
- * module is the mechanism it drives.
+ * ci-rerun-guard.js — mechanism behind the no-rerun MUST in
+ * `rules/ci-remediation.md` § Verifier, driven by `pr-watch-with-update.js`:
+ * the CI failure digest, the head-SHA discriminator, and the block.
  *
- * **Why the first red, and not the rerun-green.** The obvious design —
- * observe a green that arrives on a re-run of the same commit, then disarm
- * auto-merge and block — cannot enforce anything. GitHub's native
- * auto-merge fires server-side the moment branch protection is satisfied,
- * so it races the watcher's next poll: by the time the rerun-green is
- * observed, the PR may already be merged. The only race-free observation
- * point is the **first red**, which necessarily precedes any green. So the
- * watcher disarms on red and records the PR head SHA; the head SHA is then
- * read at **re-arm** time, not at merge time.
- *
- * **Head SHA is the discriminator.** A green on a *different* head SHA is a
- * fix at source — legal, and it retires the digest. A green on the *same*
- * head SHA is a re-run of a failed job, which the rule forbids: the
- * delivery hard-stops at `agent::blocked` and a CI-gap intake filing
- * (`file-ci-gap.js`, carrying the run link and failure signature the digest
- * already holds) is required before it can proceed.
- *
- * **One rerun after a recorded verdict (Story #5343).** The single exception,
- * and it is evidence-gated rather than discretionary: once `file-ci-gap.js`
- * has filed a `capacity` or `unreproducible-tier` verdict **for the current
- * head SHA**, it stamps a `rerunAllowance` on the digest, and exactly one
- * same-SHA green is then admitted — the digest is retired and the delivery
- * proceeds. This closes the one shape where the rule stranded a correct
- * delivery: a runner that ran out of something has no fix at source to make,
- * so the branch could never move its head SHA and the block needed a human to
- * clear. Every other same-SHA green is still a violation, the allowance is
- * spent the moment it is honoured (it dies with the digest), and a second red
- * after the rerun is real: it writes a fresh digest with no allowance, so it
- * routes to Option 1 like any other red.
- *
- * **Fail closed on an unverifiable green.** A digest whose head SHA is
- * missing, or a current head SHA that `gh` could not resolve, leaves no
- * evidence that the red was fixed at source. An unresolved red plus no
- * evidence of a new commit is treated as a violation rather than waved
- * through — the same unknown-is-blocking posture the arming probe takes on
- * an unrecognized check state.
+ * Enforcement happens at the first red, not the rerun-green: native
+ * auto-merge fires server-side and races the watcher, so only the red is a
+ * race-free observation point. The watcher disarms on red and records the
+ * head SHA. A later green on a different SHA is a fix at source; on the
+ * same SHA it is a forbidden rerun, unless `file-ci-gap.js` recorded a
+ * `capacity`/`unreproducible-tier` allowance for that SHA (one rerun; it
+ * dies with the digest). A missing SHA on either side fails closed.
