Deploy pending commits — Railspike debug log

2026-11-05T15:05Z — one-shot closeout

Necessary/useful instructions

• docs/agents/thread_to_pr.md, step 2 (find or create the feedback item) before work: the item PF-20261104-F49 was found up front this time and named in the record from the start. Retain.

• one_shot.md, Planning commit gate: committing the record before code kept the bounded outcome fixed while the list design changed after rendering; the change is recorded as a decision inside scope instead of a silent rewrite. Retain.

• implementation_standards.md, verification: rendering at phone width in several themes is what showed that a 20-commit list buried the buttons, which no unit test would have caught. Retain.

• Host AGENTS.md UI copy rule: steered the queue wording away from a new static help paragraph toward the button label and the status line that already exists. Retain.

Redundant/unnecessary instructions

• one_shot.md, Record template: the separate execution-entry checkpoint again added nothing for an entry minutes after intake; recorded in one line, as the previous cycle's log suggested.

Inapplicable instructions

• Staged step gates, phase files and stage commit cadence (one-shot mode). Extended unit estimates (no real alternatives or work units). Nav icon rules (no destination added or renamed).

Uncertain assessments

• The host rule on Feedback: trailers says to update the item "in the same commit"; a trailer on the planning commit was added by mistake and amended away before push. Whether the one-shot planning commit should ever carry the trailer is not stated; this cycle puts it only on the completion commit.
