Every reusable workflow in this repo has a little robot whose job is: "when I change, go open a PR in each repo that uses me so their pinned SHA moves forward." detect-unreviewed-merge.yml — the SOC 2 workflow that flags PRs merged without approval — never got one, so its ~12 consumers were pinned by hand and quietly drifted onto an old commit. This adds that robot.

What changed

  • New .github/workflows/bump-detect-unreviewed-merge-callers.yml — a thin entrypoint over the shared .github/bump-callers/bump-callers.sh, copied from bump-pr-size-callers.yml (the cleanest current template: it carries both the stale-run guard and the decommission check) and reparameterised: VAR_NAME: DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS, TAG: detect-unreviewed-merge, WORKFLOW_FILE: detect-unreviewed-merge.yml. Every SHA-pinned action is preserved verbatim (actions/checkout v7.0.1, actions/create-github-app-token v1.12.0 with its dependabot-ignore comment).
  • test-bump-callers.yml — the new entrypoint added to both the pull_request and push path filters.
  • .github/bump-callers/README.md — fleet row added; detect-unreviewed-merge.yml removed from "Reusables with no fleet", which now lists only the genuinely caller-less reusables.
  • AGENTS.md — the wrapper added to the catalog bullet (replacing the "known, deferred gap … pins move by hand" clause), and DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS added to the fleet-variable list. Still 145 lines, inside the standard's 200-line gate.

Two deliberate differences from the pr-size template

Single-entry path filter and decommission check. detect-unreviewed-merge.yml loads nothing at run time — no workflows_ref: input, no prompt/script directory (grep for workflows_ref/scripts/ in it returns nothing). So the workflow file is the entire surface a caller pins: the push filter lists only .github/workflows/detect-unreviewed-merge.yml, and the guard drops pr-size's second -d scripts/check-pr-size condition.

ALLOW_EMPTY is deliberately not set, so it defaults to false and an empty/missing roster is a hard error (bump-callers.sh:69-83). This fleet has a known, non-empty caller set — per that script's own contract, a fleet that always has callers must never silently no-op, because that leaves every consumer un-bumped with nobody noticing. Roster seeding is a separate human step, so a run in the window before the variable exists will fail red on purpose: that is intentional nagging, not a bug, and the header comment says so explicitly to stop a future reader "fixing" it by flipping ALLOW_EMPTY on. The failure is inert — the script exits before any caller-repo write, so nothing can be mis-pinned.

Verification

  • shellcheck -x .github/bump-callers/bump-callers.sh .github/bump-callers/tests/test_bump_callers.sh — clean.
  • bash .github/bump-callers/tests/test_bump_callers.sh123 passed, 0 failed (no script changes expected or made).
  • actionlint on the new workflow and on test-bump-callers.yml — clean.
  • python3 .github/agents-md-integrity/check_agents_md.py --root . — passed (the one warning, no CODEOWNERS, is pre-existing on main).
  • YAML parse of the new file confirms the resolved on: / concurrency: / step env: blocks match the spec above.

Judgment calls and follow-ups

  • Ticket suffix. The ticket prescribed the commit subject … (BE-6293); BE-6293 is the spike that found this gap, so I used (BE-6294) — the implementation ticket — in the title and commit so the Linear autolink points at the work being reviewed, and named BE-6293 in the commit body as the origin.
  • One line beyond the stated scope: test-bump-callers.yml's header comment enumerates the fleets the shared script drives; I added this one to that sentence rather than leave the list stale next to my own edit.
  • Not done, by design (from the ticket): docs/callers/** is untouched (it does not exist on main yet), and no caller repo name appears anywhere in this diff.
  • Follow-up (human step, this PR is safe to merge before it): seed DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS, then workflow_dispatch the new entrypoint once — landing a fleet touches no path filter, so its own merge fires no run and existing stale pins stay stale until the reusable next changes. When seeding, note that this repo's own ci-detect-unreviewed-merge.yml is a caller and belongs in the roster: omitting a repo's own caller is the exact trap AGENTS.md records the groom fleet falling into with ci-groom.yml.
  • Negative-claim check: the diff adds no capability denial — no "not supported"/"unavailable"/STOP string, no new throw/deny dead-end, no test flipped to assert one. The two exit 0 paths (stale run, decommissioned workflow) are copied verbatim from the template, and the hard-fail-on-empty is the shared script's pre-existing documented default rather than a new dead-end.

detect-unreviewed-merge.yml was the one reusable with live callers and no bump fleet, so its pins only ever moved by hand and consumers drifted behind. Add the missing thin entrypoint over the shared bump-callers.sh, copied from the pr-size template and reparameterised.

The reusable loads nothing at run time (no workflows_ref: input, no script dir), so the push path filter and the decommission guard each have a single entry, unlike pr-size. ALLOW_EMPTY is deliberately unset (defaults to false): this fleet always has callers, so an empty roster must hard-fail rather than silently no-op. The roster variable is seeded separately, so runs in that window fail red on purpose.

Registers the entrypoint in test-bump-callers.yml's path filters, adds the fleet row to the bump-callers README (and drops detect-unreviewed-merge from 'reusables with no fleet'), and updates AGENTS.md's catalog bullet + fleet-variable list. Originating spike: BE-6293.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds a caller fleet and bump workflow for detect-unreviewed-merge.yml. It pins the reusable workflow, validates main, handles stale or deleted files, invokes the shared bumper, and documents the intentionally unseeded roster.

Changes

Detect unreviewed merge caller fleet

Layer / File(s) Summary
Caller contract and fleet metadata
.github/workflows/detect-unreviewed-merge.yml, .github/bump-callers/README.md, AGENTS.md
The caller example now uses a full commit SHA with a # v1 annotation. Repository documentation defines the caller fleet, roster variable, and temporary empty-roster failure behavior.
Caller-bumping workflow
.github/workflows/bump-detect-unreviewed-merge-callers.yml, .github/workflows/test-bump-callers.yml
The new workflow runs on manual dispatch or relevant main changes. It validates the current branch tip, handles stale and deleted watched files, and invokes the shared bumper with the runtime roster. Test workflow triggers include the new fleet. The roster stays unseeded until masking is fixed: fail closed, not wide.

Address the cursor-review panel on #117 by mirroring the four guards the
sibling bump-auto-label-callers.yml already carries:

- Staleness guard compared the bare main tip against github.sha, so any
  unrelated commit landing on main between the trigger and the check
  discarded this fleet's only bump while CI reported success (the push
  trigger is path-filtered, so that commit queues no replacement run).
  Compare the watched file's blob at the tip instead.
- timeout-minutes: 20 — the job inherited the 6-hour default, and with
  cancel-in-progress: false a hung git/gh call blocked every queued bump
  behind it.
- Narrow the app token to contents/pull-requests/issues write instead of
  every permission the app holds org-wide. (owner: stays unnarrowed —
  the roster is a runtime variable, and naming repos here would leak
  private caller names into a public file.)
- Correct the header: it claimed every repo name is masked before it is
  ever echoed, but binding CALLERS_JSON via the step env means Actions
  dumps the raw roster before the script's ::add-mask:: runs. Document
  it as the known fleet-wide gap, as the sibling entrypoints do.

Addressed all four panel findings in 577b1c8 by mirroring the guards the sibling bump-auto-label-callers.yml already carries — blob-based staleness comparison, timeout-minutes: 20, narrowed app-token permissions (contents/pull-requests/issues), and a corrected header that documents the CALLERS_JSON env-dump exposure as the known fleet-wide gap instead of claiming it is masked. Re-triggering the panel to verify. Shellcheck + the 123 bump-callers functional tests pass locally; base is main.

… caller-pattern doc (BE-6294)

Round-2 cursor-review findings on the new fleet:

- The reusable's documented caller pattern pointed at
  `Comfy-Org/unreviewed-merges/.github/workflows/detector.yml@v1` — a repo,
  path and floating tag that no live caller has used since the workflow moved
  into github-workflows. `bump-callers.sh` only rewrites a
  `Comfy-Org/github-workflows/...` line carrying a 40-hex SHA, so anyone wiring
  a caller from that template would have been skipped as "already pinned" and
  drifted forever. Corrected to the real shape (`@<sha>  # v1`, matching the
  other reusables' headers) with the bumper's contract spelled out.
- Seeded `DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS` with the 12 live callers, so the
  fleet is enrolled in both directions rather than hard-failing until an
  operator noticed. Every one of them pins a full 40-hex SHA against this
  repo's path, i.e. exactly what the shared rewrite moves.
- `ALLOW_EMPTY: "false"` set explicitly (matching bump-auto-label-callers.yml)
  so the hard-fail-on-empty-roster guarantee no longer rests on another file's
  default.
- Deletion guard tests "$WATCHED" instead of a second copy of the literal path,
  which would have gone stale on a rename and made the fleet a silent no-op.
- `git ls-remote --refs` + an exact-refname match, so a branch named
  `foo/refs/heads/main` cannot be the line the tip parse consumes.

Because this touches the watched path, merging fires the new fleet's first run
end to end instead of leaving it inert.

Round-2 review resolution — all 8 open threads addressed in 1d81fe9 (5 code fixes, 1 deferred to a fleet-wide follow-up, 2 answered with reasoning).

Two things a reviewer should know before pressing merge:

  1. The roster is now seeded. DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS was empty, so this fleet would have hard-failed RED on its first run until an operator noticed — the same ci-groom.yml shape AGENTS.md warns about. It now holds the 12 live callers, verified in both directions: every repo that pins this reusable is in the roster, and every roster entry names a caller file that exists. All 12 pin a full 40-hex SHA against Comfy-Org/github-workflows/.github/workflows/detect-unreviewed-merge.yml, i.e. exactly the shape bump-callers.sh rewrites.
  2. Merging this fires ~12 bump PRs immediately. That is deliberate. This PR now also corrects the caller-pattern doc inside detect-unreviewed-merge.yml, which IS the watched path — so the new fleet proves itself end to end on merge instead of sitting inert until someone remembers to dispatch it. The corrected doc mattered on its own: it pointed at Comfy-Org/unreviewed-merges/.github/workflows/detector.yml@v1, a repo/path/floating-tag combination no caller has used since this reusable moved here, and one the bumper would have silently skipped as "already pinned".

Also fixed: ALLOW_EMPTY: "false" stated explicitly instead of inherited; the deletion guard tests "$WATCHED" rather than a second copy of the literal path; git ls-remote --refs + exact-refname match for the tip parse.

Deferred, with a follow-up recorded for filing: the CALLERS_JSON step-env: binding publishes each fleets roster in this public repos run logs before the scripts ::add-mask:: can run. Real and live, but it affects all seven bump-* entrypoints identically and needs a token permission this fleet doesnt mint — fixing it here alone would leave the other six leaking the same overlapping names.

Local gates green: shellcheck, test_bump_callers.sh (123 passed / 0 failed), AGENTS.md integrity, YAML parse.

…ot leaking (BE-6294)

Round-3 review reversed a call I made in round 2, correctly.

Seeding DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS closed the enrollment gap, but combined
with this PR touching the watched path it guaranteed a first-run disclosure:
every roster reaches bump-callers.sh through the step's `env:` block, and
Actions prints that block before the script's `::add-mask::` runs. Verified
against a real public log (run 30737929800 prints GROOM_CALLERS verbatim), so
this is live behaviour, not theory.

Six fleets already publish their rosters that way, so those names are out. Two
of this fleet's callers are non-public repos that appear in NO already-seeded
roster — seeding would have published two names that are not out yet, and a
public log entry cannot be unpublished. A red run can. So the variable is
unset again and the fleet ships deliberately unseeded; the resulting hard-fail
is the intentional nag ALLOW_EMPTY already documents. Seeding is the follow-on
to the masking fix, not a way to turn that run green. Header, bump-callers
README and AGENTS.md all say so plainly instead of claiming the gap is closed.

Also from round 3:

- On a stale-but-blob-identical re-run, pin callers to the verified `main_tip`
  rather than this run's older `github.sha`: the guard has just proved the
  reusable is byte-identical at both, so the tip is the same content at a
  commit that is actually current. Stops a land-then-revert re-run from
  re-pinning every caller backwards.
- Both decommission exits use `::warning::` instead of a bare echo — a deleted
  reusable that still has live callers hard-fails all of them at startup, and a
  silently green run here was the fleet's only chance to say so.

Round 3 — I reversed my own round-2 call, and merging this now lands a deliberately RED workflow

Both of those need to be visible before anyone presses merge, so, plainly:

1. Seeding the roster was my mistake, and it is reverted. In round 2 I seeded DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS to close the enrollment gap. The panel pointed out that combined with this PR touching the watched path, that guaranteed a first-run public disclosure. I verified the premise rather than assuming it: run 30737929800 prints CALLERS_JSON with its full roster verbatim in a world-readable log, because Actions renders a steps env: block before the scripts ::add-mask:: can run, and variables (unlike secrets) are not auto-masked.

Then I quantified it. Six fleets are already seeded and already publish their rosters, so those names are out. Intersecting this fleets 12 callers against every already-seeded roster leaves two non-public repos that appear in no existing roster. Seeding would have published two names that are not currently exposed. A public log entry cannot be unpublished; a red run can. The variable is unset again.

2. So this PR merges into a fleet that hard-fails until a follow-up lands. That is the designed behaviour (ALLOW_EMPTY: "false" — an empty roster means the variable was clobbered, and failing loudly beats bumping nothing silently), and the header, the bump-callers README and AGENTS.md now all state it as the intended state rather than claiming the gap is closed. The ~12 consumer pins keep moving by hand in the meantime, exactly as they did before this PR — so this is not a regression against today, just not yet the improvement it will be.

If you would rather not land a knowingly-red workflow, the alternative is to hold this PR until the masking follow-up merges and seed both together. I have no strong objection to that; I just did not want to make the "publish two private repo names" trade silently in either direction.

Also fixed this round

  • On a stale-but-blob-identical re-run, callers now pin the verified main_tip instead of this runs older github.sha — the guard has already proved the reusable is byte-identical at both, so this stops a land-then-revert re-run from re-pinning every caller backwards.
  • Both decommission exits emit ::warning:: rather than a bare echo behind a green run.

Answered with evidence, not changed

  • Is the self-caller enrolled? Yes — 12 is 11 external callers plus github-workflows itself, registered under its real non-canonical filename ci-detect-unreviewed-merge.yml so it cannot land in bump_repos warn-and-succeed 404 branch.
  • Are any of the 12 wired to an un-bumpable pin? No — audited all 12; each pins a full 40-hex SHA against this repos path. The stale template that would have produced one was the real defect and is fixed.
  • Widen the staleness gate to the whole bumper surface? Deliberately not: it answers "is this still the newest run for this change", and widening it makes any commit to the shared script reclassify current runs as stale and drop their bumps — reintroducing what round 1 fixed.

Recorded for follow-up (3)

  1. High — mask rosters out of public run logs across all seven entrypoints, then seed this roster. This one gates the fleet.
  2. Medium — validate roster entries in bump-callers.sh (pin shape, owner, path) so a mis-wired caller cannot drift behind a green check.
  3. Medium — extract the copy-pasted staleness guard into one shellchecked, tested script; the ls-remote parse bug fixed here is still present in the six siblings, and duplication is why.

Local gates green: shellcheck (including the inline guard, extracted and linted manually), test_bump_callers.sh 123 passed / 0 failed, AGENTS.md integrity, YAML parse. All 16 review threads across both rounds resolved.

Round-4 review caught that the previous commit left two paragraphs giving
opposite instructions. The ALLOW_EMPTY block still read "this fleet is seeded
NON-EMPTY" and told an operator an empty roster means the variable was
clobbered and should be RESTORED — while the block above it says the fleet
ships deliberately unseeded until the run-log masking fix lands. An operator
triaging the first red run and following the lower block would seed the
variable and cause exactly the irreversible disclosure the header exists to
prevent. Rewritten so the empty roster reads as the expected pre-seed state,
with the "clobbered, restore it" reading explicitly scoped to after seeding.

Also:

- Verify FETCH_HEAD resolves to a commit before reading blobs out of it.
  `git rev-parse --verify --quiet` returns empty both for "path absent from
  this tree" and "revision unresolvable", so a partial fetch was
  indistinguishable from a deletion and would exit 0 as "decommissioned" —
  the same "a lookup we couldn't perform is not evidence" anti-pattern the
  ls-remote guard above already rejects, but silently no-opping the fleet.
- An absent $WATCHED at this run's own commit now reports as a decommission
  rather than falling into the "changed since" branch and being logged as a
  stale re-run.
- Document that re-pointing NEW_SHA to main_tip is sound only because the
  paths: filter has exactly one entry, so whoever widens that filter knows the
  single-blob comparison has to widen with it.

Round 4 — and where this PR now stands

All 28 review threads across four rounds are resolved. The round-4 panel caught one thing that mattered more than the rest:

The header was contradicting itself, in the dangerous direction. When I reversed the seeding decision in round 3 I rewrote the paragraph explaining why the roster ships unseeded — and left the ALLOW_EMPTY paragraph below it still saying "this fleet is seeded NON-EMPTY" and "an empty list means the variable was clobbered, restore it". An operator triaging the first red run and following that block would have seeded the variable and caused the exact irreversible disclosure the header exists to prevent. The header would have talked someone into the harm it was warning about. Fixed in 9b93a60: an empty roster now reads as the expected pre-seed state with an explicit "do NOT fix this by seeding", and the clobbered/restore reading is scoped to after seeding.

Also fixed this round: FETCH_HEAD is verified to resolve to a commit before any blob is read out of it (git rev-parse --verify --quiet returns empty both for "path absent" and "revision unresolvable", so a partial fetch was indistinguishable from a deletion and would have exited 0 into a silent fleet-wide no-op — the same anti-pattern the ls-remote guard three lines up already rejects); an absent watched file at this runs own commit now reports as a decommission instead of a stale re-run; and the NEW_SHA re-point carries an explicit note that it is only sound while the paths: filter has one entry.


The decision this PR needs from a human

It is not a code question. Merging lands a workflow that is red by design until a follow-up merges, because the roster ships unseeded to avoid publishing two non-public repo names in this public repos logs. Two defensible options:

  • Merge now. The fleet is wired and correct; it hard-fails on every run until the masking follow-up lands and the roster is seeded. The ~12 consumer pins keep moving by hand exactly as they do today, so this is not a regression against the status quo — just not yet the improvement it will be.
  • Hold until the masking follow-up merges, then seed and land both together, so the fleet is green from its first run.

I have no strong preference. I flagged it rather than picking silently because the "publish two private repo names" side of that trade is irreversible.

Follow-ups recorded (3)

  1. High — mask rosters out of public run logs across all seven entrypoints, then seed this roster. Gates the fleet.
  2. High — validate roster entries in bump-callers.sh. Round 4 sharpened this: because the script uses each entrys file verbatim as the committed tree path and its label for gh pr create, and variables are editable outside code review, roster-edit access converts into "commit an arbitrary path and open a labelled PR in any org repo the app is installed on".
  3. Medium — extract the copy-pasted staleness guard into one shellchecked, tested script. The ls-remote parse bug fixed here is still live in the six siblings, and the duplication is why.

Verification

shellcheck (including the inline run: block, extracted and linted each round), test_bump_callers.sh 123 passed / 0 failed, AGENTS.md integrity, YAML parse — all green on 9b93a60, and Test bump-callers script passed in CI. No merge-queue runs exist for this PR, so there is no hidden merged-result failure. Base is main, mergeable clean.

One caveat worth stating: 9b93a60 has not itself been through a review panel — rounds 1–4 reviewed up to 72d5d79. Its changes are the header rewrite plus two defensive guards. Re-apply the cursor-review label if you want a pass over them before merging.

🤖 The reviews loop filed Linear follow-up ticket(s) for review thread(s) deferred as out of scope for this PR:

  • BE-6466 — Mask bump-* caller rosters out of public run logs, then seed DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS — filed as agent-spike (premise unverified)
  • BE-6467 — Validate caller-roster entries in bump-callers.sh instead of trusting the variable — filed as agent-spike (premise unverified)
  • BE-6468 — Extract the copy-pasted staleness guard from the seven bump-* entrypoints into one tested script — filed as agent-spike (premise unverified)

The following carry agent-spike instead of agent-ok because their reachability claim was not backed by evidence (BE-5378) — the claim is investigated before any code is written, and "the premise does not hold" is a valid, successful outcome:

  • Mask bump- caller rosters out of public run logs, then seed DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS* — no reachability block in the proposal
  • Validate caller-roster entries in bump-callers.sh instead of trusting the variable — no reachability block in the proposal
  • Extract the copy-pasted staleness guard from the seven bump- entrypoints into one tested script* — no reachability block in the proposal

In @.github/bump-callers/README.md:
- Line 34: Update the “Why the detect-unreviewed-merge roster is not seeded yet”
heading in the README from level 4 (`####`) to level 3 (`###`) so it follows the
surrounding level-2 heading hierarchy and satisfies MD001.

In @.github/workflows/bump-detect-unreviewed-merge-callers.yml:
- Around line 108-114: Update the uses entries in the Checkout and Generate
Cloud Code Bot token steps to end with the required trailing # v1 comment while
retaining their full SHA pins. Move the existing version-specific rationale to
preceding comment lines so the required trailing format remains intact.
- Around line 81-90: The workflow’s concurrency group can replace a newer
pending push run with an older manual re-run, preventing the current SHA from
updating callers. Add a non-concurrent preflight job that determines whether the
triggering run is still current, expose that result as an output, and gate the
serialized bump job on it; preserve the existing bump logic only for
confirmed-current runs.
- Around line 143-145: Update the explanatory comment near the pre-seed roster
validation to state that the hard failure is expected until masking and roster
seeding are complete, and that the workflow must remain red rather than
proceeding. Clarify that operators should not seed
DETECT_UNREVIEWED_MERGE_CALLERS before the masking fix, preserving the existing
failure behavior and preventing caller names from reaching the public step
environment.

…d header (BE-6294)

The round-4 header rewrite scoped the 'empty roster means clobbered, restore
it' reading to after seeding, but the ALLOW_EMPTY comment 90 lines down still
carried the old, unscoped version — the same trap in a second place. An
operator triaging the first red run from that comment would seed the variable
and cause the irreversible disclosure the header exists to prevent.

Also: fix the README heading level (MD001, h2 -> h4), and document the
concurrency edge where a manual re-run of a superseded run evicts a newer
pending one. That edge is shared verbatim by all seven bump-* entrypoints and
is self-healing plus dispatch-recoverable, so it is noted rather than forked
into one of seven copies.

Round 5 — the round-4 fix was one place short

CodeRabbit re-reviewed 9b93a60 and posted 4 findings. All 4 threads are resolved (32 across five rounds); 2 fixed in a8ef9a8, 2 answered.

The one that mattered was a repeat of round 4's own bug. Round 4 rewrote the header so an empty roster reads as the expected pre-seed state rather than a clobbered variable — but the ALLOW_EMPTY comment 90 lines down still said "an empty roster here is a clobbered variable... must fail loudly". Same trap, second location: an operator triaging the first red run from that comment seeds the variable and causes the irreversible two-name disclosure the header exists to prevent. Fixed — it now keeps the durable reason ALLOW_EMPTY: "false" is restated (this fleet has known live callers, so empty can never mean "no members"), then states the failure is expected until masking lands and says explicitly not to seed.

Also fixed: README heading level (h2 → h4, MD001).

Answered, not changed

  • Trailing # v1 pin comment. Both refs already carry full 40-hex SHAs, which is what pinact/zizmor enforce. All 14 uses: across the seven bump-* entrypoints — six of them already on main — are byte-identical to these. Taking # v1 literally would put # v1 next to checkout's v7 SHA, and would demote the create-github-app-token rationale that 72afd23 landed specifically to hold it at v1.x. If that reading is intended it is a repo-wide change across seven files plus AGENTS.md, not something to start unilaterally in the newest entrypoint.
  • Concurrency staleness (flagged Major). The mechanism is real and I documented it in a8ef9a8: "newest pending" is by enqueue time, not commit date, so hand-re-running a superseded run while a newer one is pending evicts the newer one. But the proposed preflight job does not cure it — the newer run is cancelled at the queue, before any job runs, and no preflight resurrects it. It is self-healing (next change to the watched path bumps forward), recoverable with one workflow_dispatch, and not reachable today at all: the roster ships unseeded, so every run hard-fails before it can bump anything. The block is verbatim in all seven entrypoints, so the fix belongs to BE-6468 (extract the shared staleness guard) — flagged there rather than opening a second ticket, and not forked into one of seven copies here.

Verification

shellcheck (script, tests, and the inline run: block extracted and linted), test_bump_callers.sh 123 passed / 0 failed, AGENTS.md integrity, YAML parse — green on a8ef9a8. shellcheck + functional and both Socket checks passed in CI. No merge-queue runs exist for this PR, so no hidden merged-result failure. Base is main, mergeable clean.

Unchanged: the decision this PR still needs from a human

Merging lands a workflow that is red by design until the masking follow-up (BE-6466) merges and the roster is seeded, because seeding now would publish two non-public repo names in this public repo's logs. Merge now (fleet wired and correct, ~12 pins keep moving by hand as they do today) or hold and land both together. a8ef9a8 is comment/doc-only — no logic changed this round.

Merged main in (single 3-way beats replaying commits here), merging unreviewed. Three conflicts, all text: (1) detect-unreviewed-merge.yml header comments — main's are the corrected ones (it fixed a bogus example path that pointed at a non-existent Comfy-Org/unreviewed-merges/.../detector.yml, and moved the long prose to docs/callers/), so main wins both hunks. (2) test-bump-callers.yml's fleet enumeration — main had added pr-risk, this branch adds detect-unreviewed-merge; unioned to all five and asserted each name is present. (3) AGENTS.md, twice: the fleet list and the *_CALLERS variable list each needed a union rather than a winner.

The one judgement worth calling out: main's AGENTS.md asserted detect-unreviewed-merge.yml "has ~12 callers and no fleet — a known, deferred gap, so its pins move by hand". This PR is what closes that gap, so I let the branch's sentence supersede it and asserted the stale "no fleet" claim is gone from the merged file — otherwise main would document the absence of the very fleet this PR adds. main's pr-risk additions and the bump-cursor-cli-pin.yml bullet from #127 both ride along intact.

Verified: both workflow files parse as YAML; tests/test_bump_callers.sh is 175 passed / 0 failed on the merged tree; AGENTS.md 186 lines, under the hard 200 ceiling.
