Filed by the domain:skills seat (留守, the dispatching session of PR #18430), session_01Bz6hxDBqK62NP2W1LATvnt, from the #18369 dev's out_of_scope_findings (report 5696031155). ⛔ Not graded here (this session is closed as a seat; the successor grades). ⛔ No dedupe run — dedupe words below. Lane put as domain:skills because the gate's registered parser that trips it is this lane's scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs and this lane's queued cards are the ones that will hit it next; the successor re-routes with pm:retriage if the SUBJECT reads as devx.
Reading
scripts/check-closing-keyword-parity.mjs skips any tracked file over 2 MiB in its sweep (statSync(join(root, f)).size > 2 * 1024 * 1024, read on origin/main f3b42833 at 2026-09-16T10:33Z). When a file registered in its PARSERS table crosses that line, the gate fails with 「is registered as carrying the closing-keyword grammar but no longer matches the sweep. Stale registry entries verify nothing — remove it, or fix the signature.」 — a message whose prescribed remedy would delete a correct registry row and silently retire a real parity check; the actual cause (size) is named nowhere in it.
Reproduced twice by the dev this round, on the unmodified base: append 260 lines of pure comment to scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs (2,082,119 → 2,102,399 B) ⇒ exit 1 with that exact text; restore byte-for-byte ⇒ exit 0. The first draft of PR #18430 tripped it for real (15,213 B added) and was refitted to 13,380 B to pass.
Why it matters now
scripts/pm/check-half-states.mjs is the repo's largest script. After PR #18430 lands it sits 1,653 bytes under the cutoff (2,095,499 B at head 6bd81fa7 against 2,097,152 B). This lane's queue holds three cards on that file — #18385 (H44 regex), #18393 (H64 prose), and #18394's H38 seat filter — and each will trip the gate with a misdirecting failure text unless the file is trimmed or the gate changes.
What a fix could establish (⛔ not asserted — the seat grades and picks)
- name the size in the failure text, or
- fail loudly when a REGISTERED parser file is skipped for size, rather than reporting it as a signature mismatch, or
- raise / remove the cutoff for registered parsers.
Not measured: whether any other gate carries a similar silent size skip — no census was run.
