fix(engine): main is red on check:inert-sync-lanes — #3114's triage conversion is inert, revert the arm (#3126)
## `main` is red on `check:inert-sync-lanes` right now ``` inert-sync-lane: NEW inert conversions — a lane guard now reads a sync resolver that always answers with the DEFAULT board. packages/engine/src/triage.ts: 7 -> 8 ``` Verified on a clean `origin/main` checkout, not on my branch. #3114 converted this guard's third arm to `disposeLanes.wip`; the gate that exists to catch exactly this fired, and the PR landed anyway — presumably because `check:inert-sync-lanes` is not in the blocking merge-gate set. ## The change did not change behaviour `disposeLanes` comes from `resolvePlannerLanes`, which resolves through `resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync` — inert under PostgreSQL for two independent reasons (#3103). So `disposeLanes.wip` evaluates to `in-progress`: **the same value as the literal it replaced.** A card advancing into a renamed execution lane still matches nothing, still reads as an evacuation, and still kills a healthy planning session — the precise bug #3114 set out to fix, unchanged on every board. So the arm goes back to the literal. The gate's own failure text rules out the alternative: > Do NOT re-record the baseline to clear this — that is the same false green one layer up. ## #3114's analysis is kept — only the code reverts Its behavioural description is **correct** and is the clearest statement of this bug anywhere in the file. I have kept those paragraphs and added what is missing: that the fix does not reach under PG, and what would. Whoever supplies a lane answer that is not sync-resolved should make this line read `disposeLanes.wip` and delete the note. The specification is sitting right there for them. ## It also reconciles two contradictory notes, one of them mine My #3108 flag said converting the third arm this way adds an inert comparison and removes a census entry that is telling the truth. #3114 then converted it and added a note saying it fixes the bug. **Both notes sat in the file**, giving any reader two confident, opposite accounts. They are now one account with the evidence attached. ## Read this file's census count carefully #3114 took it to **0** while the inert count went to **8**. The census's own `--triage` output warns about exactly this shape: > for a sync-resolved file, a count of 0 is the WORST case, not the best — the file reads as fully converted Reverting restores it to 1, which is the honest signal. ## Census | | before | after | |---|---|---| | `triage.ts` | 0 | **1** | | repo backlog | 26 | **27** | **The number going up is the point.** A census that reports 0 for a file whose guards are all inert is worse than one that reports the truth — it retires the entry and nobody looks again. ## Measured - `check-inert-sync-lane-conversions`: **exits 1 on `main`, 0 here** (8 → 7). - `src/__tests__/triage*` — **25 files / 374 tests pass**. - `tsc --noEmit -p packages/engine` clean; census `--strict`, `check-fnxc-future-dates` clean.

FNXC:WorkflowResolvedColumns 2026-07-31-23:55 (FLAGGED AND LEFT COUNTED — and the shape here is

misleading, which is why it needs saying):
|
||||
FNXC:WorkflowResolvedColumns 2026-07-31-23:58 (RECONCILING TWO NOTES THAT CONTRADICTED EACH OTHER
|
||||
— the earlier one was mine):
|
||||
|
||||
This guard LOOKS two-thirds converted — two resolved arms and one literal — so the obvious next
|
||||
move is to convert the third with the same helper. That would be wrong twice over.
|
||||
My flag here said the third arm must not be converted with the same helper because that adds a
|
||||
third INERT comparison. #3114 then converted it. Both notes sat in this file giving a reader two
|
||||
confident, opposite accounts, so this replaces the pair with what is actually true.
|
||||
|
||||
1. `resolvePlannerLanes` goes through `resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync`, which cannot answer for a
|
||||
CUSTOM workflow: the sync selection reader returns `undefined` unconditionally, AND the
|
||||
custom-workflow IR read goes through `store.db`, whose implementation is an unconditional
|
||||
throw (`sync-workflow-ir-second-blocker.test.ts`). So `disposeLanes.hold`/`.intake` are
|
||||
`todo`/`triage` on every board. All THREE arms are literal in effect; converting the third
|
||||
via the same helper adds a third inert comparison and removes a census entry that is telling
|
||||
the truth.
|
||||
#3114 IS RIGHT ABOUT THE SHAPE AND THE BUG. This line asked two role questions and one id
|
||||
question, and `resolvePlannerLanes` already answers `wip`, so the literal was the odd one out
|
||||
with no new resolution and no new await. Its behavioural claim is also correct: keyed on the id,
|
||||
a card advancing into a RENAMED execution lane read as an evacuation and killed a healthy
|
||||
planning session — the exact case the note above it says must not abort.
|
||||
|
||||
2. The guard's answer is consumed SYNCHRONOUSLY — that is the criterion, not "the listener is
|
||||
sync". Below it, `pauseAborted.add`, `session.dispose()` and `activeSessions.delete` all
|
||||
mutate in-memory state in this tick, and other paths read those maps. (Contrast
|
||||
`self-healing.ts`'s fan-out, where three of four guards only gated work the listener already
|
||||
`void`s and were therefore convertible via the async resolver.)
|
||||
WHAT IT DOES NOT DO IS FIX THAT UNDER POSTGRESQL, and the evidence is mechanical rather than
|
||||
argued: `resolvePlannerLanes` resolves through `resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync`, which cannot answer
|
||||
for a CUSTOM workflow — the sync selection reader returns `undefined` unconditionally, AND the
|
||||
custom-workflow IR read goes through `store.db`, whose implementation is an unconditional throw
|
||||
(`sync-workflow-ir-second-blocker.test.ts`). All three arms therefore evaluate to `todo` /
|
||||
`triage` / `in-progress` on every board the product ships. `check-inert-sync-lane-conversions`
|
||||
records this file at SEVEN inert guards, which is where the truth now lives.
|
||||
|
||||
WHAT IT COSTS TODAY: a card evacuated from planning into a lane the board renamed still matches
|
||||
none of these, so the guard falls through and the session IS disposed — correct. The failure is
|
||||
the other direction: a board whose HOLD or INTAKE lane is renamed no longer matches arms 1 and
|
||||
2, so a card sitting still in its own planning lane is treated as evacuated and its live triage
|
||||
session is aborted mid-run.
|
||||
SO READ THE ZERO CAREFULLY. This file's lifecycle-column-census count is now 0, and the census's
|
||||
own `--triage` output warns that for a sync-resolved file "a count of 0 is the WORST case, not
|
||||
the best — the file reads as fully converted". That is this file. The guard is uniform and
|
||||
honest in shape, and still wrong on a renamed board.
|
||||
|
||||
UNBLOCKING is not "convert the remaining arm" — there is none. It needs the answer to arrive
|
||||
without the sync resolver: the emitter-carried lanes #3109 added for `task:moved`, extended to
|
||||
`task:updated` (measured as NOT a cheap follow-on — 26 emit sites against 7, on the hottest
|
||||
write path; see `sync-workflow-ir-second-blocker.test.ts`), or a sync reader that answers for
|
||||
custom workflows.
|
||||
|
||||
The guard's answer is also consumed SYNCHRONOUSLY — `pauseAborted.add`, `session.dispose()` and
|
||||
`activeSessions.delete` all mutate in-memory state in this tick — so whatever supplies it must
|
||||
not require an await.

why the paragraphs stay. The change did not fix it.

Measured: `disposeLanes.wip` resolves through `resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync`, which answers with the
