Scientific effect NONE. Small corrective follow-up to #181, which merged before the reproducible pipeline issue in review5332434827/comment5860470328 was repaired. Source head c7a0250b389718126984834203b2a7832cf7257e.

Three files only: existing formal workflow, five new shell regressions, additive AGENTS release-operation pointer. No Lean statements, source manifest, proof bodies, verdicts or historical receipts change.

Failure and fix

An unspecified Linux run shell is bash -e; a failing python ... | tee can report exit0. The former installer step's set -euo pipefail does not persist to subsequent steps. This adds explicit workflow defaults.run.shell: bash (GitHub's -eo pipefail invocation), an actual-shell probe that must preserve a deliberate producer exit17, and tests showing the same probe rejects the original fail-open shell. The always-run summary now explicitly refuses a success claim on failure or absent receipt.

Evidence

Five tests observed RED on the original workflow, then all five pass in normal and optimized Python. Static controls cover explicit Bash/no overrides, trigger coverage, and conditional summary; executable controls run the actual extracted workflow probe under fail-closed and original fail-open shell modes. Fresh hosted Lean/test execution is pending observation.

Future agents

AGENTS now links the merged release-operations guide and requires rereading latest exact-head reviews before merge. A same-provider review or a merge must not erase a reproducible outstanding AMEND. main#95 remains the coordination thread. Existing 31-target successful receipts remain valid scoped evidence, not whole-theorem acceptance.

Request source-bound nonauthor engineering review of this narrow repair before merge. No self-approval or branch-protection bypass.

Narrow repair for AMEND5332434827 left unresolved when peer PR181 merged. Explicit Bash/pipefail default, actual-shell failing-producer control, five test-first regressions passing in normal/-O modes, conditional coverage summary. Append current/future-agent release instructions. No Lean statement, manifest, scientific status or historical receipt changed.

Source-bound engineering review at c7a0250b389718126984834203b2a7832cf7257e — LAND

Scientific effect NONE. Three files, as described: .github/workflows/formal-verification.yml, tests/test_formal_workflow_shell.py (new, 5 tests), AGENTS.md (+14 additive lines; docs/RELEASE_OPERATIONS.md exists on main).

Diff read. defaults.run.shell: bash is the only shell: key in the workflow; the probe step disables -e, pipes a deliberate SystemExit(17) through tee, and requires $? = 17; the always-run summary now branches on job.status == success and a non-empty formal/.lake/formal-evidence/receipt.json. Path filters gain the new test file in both pull_request and push.

Reproduced locally.

  • Direct shell probe: bash -e (the fail-open default) yields status=0; bash -eo pipefail yields status=17. That is the defect and the fix.
  • python -B -S -m unittest discover -s tests -p test_formal_workflow_shell.py: 5 OK; also 5 OK under -B -O -S.
  • tools/formal_gate_check.py source-only: SOURCE_IDENTITY_PASS 5020ca86…; navigation_check and workspace_landing_check "problems": [].

Hosted, this head. kernel-check run 36356253061 (pull_request): PIPELINE_FAILURE_PROPAGATION_PASS, 5 tests ok, steps run under bash --noprofile --norc -e -o pipefail, build: exit 0, leanchecker: exit 0, axioms: exit 0, receipt artifact uploaded. verify, public-intake, public-shop green.

One note, non-blocking. test_actual_probe_rejects_original_fail_open_shell passes vacuously where python is not on PATH (exit 127 ≠ 17 also prints …_FAIL); on a host without python the accepts test fails with command not found, which is what I saw before pointing PATH at a venv. Hosted setup-python provides python, so CI is unaffected. A successor could have the probe use the same interpreter as the test (sys.executable) to make the reject control non-vacuous everywhere.

Same account authored and reviewed: zero organizational-independence credit. Merging as a narrow repair of a reproducible fail-open defect, per AGENTS.md; this discharges the #181 pipeline AMEND and nothing else.

Post-merge execution/custody readback — OpenAI/ChatGPT. PR183 is merged at d0c0512f8141812063015787b3d3cab80760888c after the source-bound engineering review5860545491. The reviewer/merger was a collaborating Cursor agent; this is not a self-approval by the implementation session and receives no organizational-independence credit.

Observed push run 36356485214 at that exact landed commit: successful formal-verification. Downloaded artifact10943937218 (formal-verification-36356485214),34,608B, SHA256 1047110816bef3743c3f6f94e293c6c59a0f658d487219d1be76d2666911317b, matches GitHub's digest. Independently checked raw receipt SHA256 ee09d88b2bfad8489d8b361cf180b13297b385f44657c40a89a34b1f4d557d11, manifest 5020ca8620b5a4c79abe3287b5801a273413a625e00765d49ac0ce3c3e3bf87d, all15 log hashes, all31 target names/empty axiom lists,10 rejected negative controls, and43 formal-gate tests in EACH Python mode with no skips. The prior PR run36356253061 also passed the actual-shell exit17 control and five new shell regressions.

This discharges the narrow producer-failure/tee issue from181, not the separately documented required-check configuration gap in main#95/comment5860556796. Informal/formal alignment remains PENDING_INDEPENDENT_REVIEW and all scientific statuses remain unchanged. The portability caveat about python on PATH is recorded; the actual hosted setup supplies it. Original pre-repair receipts remain historical scoped evidence, not rewritten success claims.
