Round 1

Prior signals were earned at older heads — Qodo at 7cd095a, Copilot at 4df4b37 ("🟢 Approval recommended") — and neither propagates to 6cb1f63, since the intervening commits touch files the PR owns at both heads.

Four bot threads triaged, all resolved:

Finding	Reviewer	Disposition
Entry swaps erase released history	Qodo	fixed — 6cb1f63
Fixture failures keep tests running	Qodo	fixed — 6cb1f63
Multi-line error output loses its prefix	Copilot	fixed — 6cb1f63
Mutable test data uses uppercase names	Qodo	wontfix — exported env var read by a separate process, and pre-existing

Codex has never engaged with this PR, so it is not eligible for re-request; quorum of 2 is available from Copilot (github) and Qodo (qodo).

Round 2

Both reviewers returned on 6cb1f63. Copilot: "🟢 Approval recommended", 0 new comments — a clean signal for that head, family github. Qodo raised two further findings, both on the watch workflow added this round:

Finding	Disposition
Busy tracker gets duplicate alerts (SIGPIPE in the marker check)	fixed — 9aebad9
Pin watcher omits its success exit	fixed — 9aebad9

The first was real and correctly diagnosed. Reproducing it needed the right shape: a single long line does not trigger it, because grep must read the whole line before matching and the producer finishes first. Marker on line 1 with 20k lines after returns 141 (SIGPIPE) and reports not-found, which would repost the alert monthly for the life of the pin.

Copilot's 6cb1f63 signal does not propagate to 9aebad9 — the head-move touched .github/workflows/git-cliff-pin-watch.yml, which the PR owns at both heads — so both reviewers were re-requested against the new head.

Round 3 — converged-merge-blocked

Both reviewers returned clean on 9aebad9 and quorum is met from distinct families:

• Copilot (github) — "🟢 Approval recommended" at 10:50:48Z, 0 new comments, body substantive rather than a provider error.
• Qodo (qodo) — summary advanced to 10:48:14Z past the 10:47:36Z trigger, per-pass marker naming 9aebad9 explicitly, and every category at (0) with no struck-through or active findings. No determination comment: a fresh pass listing nothing has nothing to report.

Pre-terminal re-fetch confirmed head unchanged at 9aebad9, 11 checks passing with 1 skipped, combined status success, 0 unresolved threads across 6 total, and base still an ancestor.

Why merge-blocked rather than converged. The main ruleset sets required_approving_review_count: 1 and the PR has 0 approving reviews — reviewDecision: REVIEW_REQUIRED. Neither bot submits an APPROVED review; both post COMMENTED. Approving is an explicit non-goal for this runner, so the remaining gate is human. All 8 required contexts pass and required_review_thread_resolution is satisfied, so nothing else stands in the way. For reference, #85 merged with zero approving reviews, i.e. through owner bypass.

Six findings across three rounds: five fixed, one declined with evidence.
