Symptom

A claim that yields from a workflow to a Bot leaves the source workflow's log silent: the card simply disappears from the source graph. The workflow→workflow leg was fixed by #1668/#2470; the kind === 'bot' leg and the queuedOrRunning early return still skip the source line.

Repro (live main 2eca1c32, plugin lane)

Control (workflow→workflow) shows the expected line; the bot leg does not:

PROBE_CONTROL_DECISION      {"kind":"workflow",…}
PROBE_CONTROL_SOURCE_DELTA  1
PROBE_CONTROL_SOURCE_LAST   "Task re-matched · {task} → {to}"

PROBE_BOT_DECISION          {"kind":"bot","id":"dev2"}
PROBE_BOT_ALREADY           false      # a real reroute, the claim is written
PROBE_BOT_SOURCE_DELTA      0
PROBE_BOT_SOURCE_LAST       "Started · {task} · {nodes}"   # log stops on the old line
PROBE_REPEAT_ALREADY        true  SOURCE_DELTA 0           # a later ingest does not add it either

The queuedOrRunning early return is the second reachable path (same from, same symptom): S1 Beta is running t-9; S2 the card reroutes to Alpha (Beta's old run still live, activeCount 1, Alpha starts run-dc90ed6b); S3 the card is pointed back at Beta → {"decision":{"kind":"workflow","id":…},"already":true} with PROBE_QUEUED_SOURCE_DELTA 0 (Alpha's source log gets 0 lines).

Code: from is already computed at plugins/workflow/src/service.js:1818; the decision.kind === 'bot' block at :1822-1826 does rememberClaim + write() + return before the finish/push(from.id, …) at :1835/:1841, and the queuedOrRunning early return at :1827-1831 has the same shape.

Expected

When a claim yields to a Bot, the source workflow's messages gains exactly one line — same key as the documented one, Task re-matched · {task} → {to} (re-matched lowercase, separator space + U+00B7 + space, arrow space + U+2192 + space; the zh fallback is 任务已改投 · {task} → {to}, service.js:1843-1845) — in the same write(), and a repeated ingest adds nothing. The queuedOrRunning early return counts in this issue: covering both early returns means moving the push(from.id, …) ahead of :1822/:1827, still landing once per that write().

Documented as a contract in docs/subsystems/workflow.md:65 ("A claim that yields leaves one line on the source workflow's log — Task re-matched · <task> → <destination>"), and the claim may yield to a bot: token / an assignee that names a local Bot — so this is a defect, not a new feature.

Scope

  • plugins/workflow/src/service.js only (both early returns).
  • plugins/workflow/test/claim-reroute-log.test.js +2 cases (bot leg; queuedOrRunning leg).
  • changelog.d/ fragment.

Does not touch core/client.js, patches/ds-bot/**, store.js, or any core/src/client/** file.

Dedupe (2026-11-05)

Searched the live main and GitHub: re-matched (55 hits), reroute (4), re-match + bot (33) → only closed #1647/#1668, merged #2470, closed dup #2472; open #2475/#2476/#2474 do not cover it; no open PR on the same title at filing time; no live claim.
