CARD TITLE (intent, not commit subject): doc-gate: a RENAMED route module triggers no rule at all (structural change invisible to the gate)

Autonomous build of board card tsk-gv6m6g.

git --name-status reports renames as R100/R087/... and copies as C100/...;
the parser truncates to the first character, so they arrive as R and C.
Those statuses were silently ignored by the trigger set, meaning a
renamed route module fired no rule and required no doc.

Fix: add R and C to the trigger set alongside A and D. The satisfaction
set (all_paths) is intentionally left as A/M only so that a renamed
require_doc still does not count as a doc update.

Tests added:

  • rename triggers rule by name
  • copy triggers rule by name
  • deletion still triggers (pinning)
  • rename does not satisfy require_doc (pinning)
  • rename plus added doc passes

RED-FIRST EVIDENCE (produced by @taOS-dev, lead; card demands assert-on-rule-name)

Method: on the branch head, revert only scripts/check_doc_gate.py to the
merge-base 9550eed5 (leaving the new tests in place), then run the new class.

$ git checkout 9550eed5 -- scripts/check_doc_gate.py
$ pytest tests/test_check_doc_gate.py::TestEvaluateRulesRenameCopy -p no:randomly

>       assert len(failures) == 1
E       assert 0 == 1
E        +  where 0 = len([])
tests/test_check_doc_gate.py:189: AssertionError

FAILED tests/test_check_doc_gate.py::TestEvaluateRulesRenameCopy::test_rename_triggers_rule_by_name
FAILED tests/test_check_doc_gate.py::TestEvaluateRulesRenameCopy::test_copy_triggers_rule_by_name
FAILED tests/test_check_doc_gate.py::TestEvaluateRulesRenameCopy::test_rename_does_not_satisfy_require_doc
========================= 3 failed, 2 passed in 0.51s ==========================

Green with the fix restored, across both doc-gate test files:

$ git checkout HEAD -- scripts/check_doc_gate.py
$ pytest tests/test_check_doc_gate.py tests/test_doc_gate.py -q -p no:randomly
90 passed in 0.83s

Honest reading of each of the five — 3 red, 2 controls

Two of the five pass both ways and are not evidence; stating which, rather
than reporting "3 failed" as though the class were uniformly red:

  • test_rename_triggers_rule_by_nameREAL RED. R was in neither set.
  • test_copy_triggers_rule_by_nameREAL RED. C likewise.
  • test_rename_does_not_satisfy_require_docRED, BUT NOT FOR ITS NAME'S
    REASON.
    On the old code it fails because the rename never triggers
    (0 == 1), not because satisfaction was widened. It is still worth keeping:
    it pins the satisfaction set against a future widening, which is the failure
    mode doc-gate: DELETING the required doc satisfies the rule (gate goes fully green on the change it exists to prevent) #2392 closed. Its value is forward-looking, not as proof of this defect.
  • test_deletion_still_triggers_ruleCONTROL, passes both ways. D already
    triggered. Present so a fix that rewrites the trigger set cannot drop D.
  • test_rename_with_doc_added_passesCONTROL, and it passes for the WRONG
    REASON on the old code
    : there it yields [] because nothing triggers at
    all, whereas on the fixed code it yields [] because the added doc satisfies
    a rule that did fire. Same output, opposite mechanism.

Base-freshness re-check (the reason this PR was not merged on its first green)

Its first deleted-symbols-gate SUCCESS ran at 17:07:13Z; #2393 merged at
17:17:17Z — ten minutes later. That green was evaluated against a dev
that did not yet contain EXIT_GIT_ERROR, so it proved nothing, and the merge
was conflict-free, so nothing else objected either. Fixed by merging dev in
(795928f), not by waiving. Verified in the merged tree:

$ grep -c 'status in ("A", "M")' scripts/check_doc_gate.py   # #2392's filter
1
$ grep -c 'EXIT_GIT_ERROR' scripts/check_doc_gate.py         # #2393's fix
2

all_paths is untouched at ("A", "M"), so #2392's deleted-doc bypass stays
closed; only the trigger set widens, to ("A", "D", "R", "C").

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The documentation gate now treats added, deleted, renamed, and copied files as structural changes by default. Tests verify that only added or modified documentation satisfies documentation requirements.

Changes

Documentation gate status handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Status matching and validation
scripts/check_doc_gate.py, tests/test_check_doc_gate.py
Structural rules now match added, deleted, renamed, and copied files. Modified files require on_modify. Tests cover rename, copy, deletion, and documentation-status behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Mergeability Score: ⚪ Minimal · up to 79592

The change correctly makes renamed and copied route modules trigger documentation rules while preserving existing satisfaction behavior, with the supplied test suite passing. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks; a minor documentation follow-up and optional test enhancement remain.

#2393 merged at 17:17Z, ten minutes AFTER this branch's deleted-symbols-gate ran
at 17:07Z. The gate was green against a dev that did not yet contain
EXIT_GIT_ERROR, so it proved nothing about the current merge result -- and the
merge is conflict-free, so nothing else would have objected either. Without this
merge the branch wins outright on scripts/check_doc_gate.py and silently deletes
#2393's git-error handling.

Third occurrence today on this one file (#2391, #2393, now this).

Add a regression test for copied documentation.

The class contract states that C must trigger a rule but must not satisfy require_doc. The tests cover this boundary for R only. Add a case with copied route and copied CHANGELOG.md paths that expects one failure.

Update the evaluate_rules docstring for R and C.

Line 270 now treats renamed and copied files as structural changes, but the docstring at Lines 239-244 still says that only A and D trigger by default. Update the docstring so it matches the implemented contract.

-    By default only status "A" (added) or "D" (deleted) files count as

Lead adjudication before merge — @taOS-dev

Bot coverage at the current head: NONE. Stating that rather than counting inactive bots as passes.

Four bot comments sit on this PR at 17:06–17:09Z. Read individually, none of them is a review of what is about to merge:

bot what it actually did
qodo-code-review billing-blocked — trial ended, no review run
coderabbitai rate-limited, review never started
gitar-bot posted its "Gitar is working" spinner and never returned
kilo-code-bot genuinely reviewed — "No Issues Found" — but at head 2c60b823

I retriggered CodeRabbit at 17:50:50Z; it acknowledged ("Full review triggered") and has produced nothing since. That is the documented rate-limit pattern, so per the standing rule I adjudicate on a lead line-review and say so on the PR.

Kilo's pass does not transfer to the current head. 2c60b823 and 795928f1 differ by 83 insertions across 3 files — that is #2393 arriving through the dev merge, and it touches scripts/check_doc_gate.py, the very file under review. Treating that tick as current would be the same error this PR's own history already contains (see the 17:07 gate below).

Why the risk is bounded anyway, measured rather than asserted

$ git rev-parse --short origin/dev
9550eed5
$ git merge-base --is-ancestor 9550eed5 origin/dev && echo YES
YES
$ git diff --stat origin/dev 795928f1
 scripts/check_doc_gate.py    | 16 ++++++-------
 tests/test_check_doc_gate.py | 53 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 2 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-)

dev's tip is 9550eed5, and against it this branch adds exactly the two-file change. So everything in the merge candidate is either already on dev, or is the diff I have read line by line. There is no third category — which is what makes a single-reviewer adjudication defensible here rather than merely convenient.

Lead line-review

One functional line: the trigger set ("A", "D")("A", "D", "R", "C"). all_paths is untouched at ("A", "M"), so #2392's deleted-doc bypass stays closed — that was the card's explicit constraint and the diff honours it.

The docstring rewrite deletes the sentence "Any changed file (any status) can trigger a rule." That sentence was false, and the red evidence in the PR body is what proves it: under the old code a renamed route produced 0 failures. Removing it is a correction, not a cosmetic edit — a wrong comment outlives a bug, because nobody re-measures a comment.

Red-first evidence is in the body (3 real red, 2 controls, each labelled — including one that goes red for a different reason than its name suggests, and one that passes for the wrong reason on the old code). 90 green across both doc-gate test files after restoring the fix.

On this PR's first green, which proved nothing

17:07:13Z  deleted-symbols-gate SUCCESS
17:17:17Z  #2393 merged — ten minutes LATER

That gate ran against a dev that did not yet contain EXIT_GIT_ERROR, so nothing had been deleted yet and the pass was honest and worthless; the merge is conflict-free, so nothing else objected either. Fixed by merging dev in (795928f1), not by waiving. The gates have since re-run at the current head — after #2393 landed — so this green is evaluated against a base that actually contains the code the branch could have deleted. A required check is only as fresh as the base it ran against.

Verified in the merged tree: status in ("A", "M") ×1 (#2392's filter), EXIT_GIT_ERROR ×2 (#2393's fix). All three PRs' changes coexist.

Merging.
