A phase directory can hold more than one `*-VERIFICATION.md` — an ad-hoc `03-CORRECTION-VERIFICATION.md` worksheet beside the real `03-VERIFICATION.md`. Discovery took the alphabetically-first match, so the worksheet won and the phase could report `missing` while a passing report sat next to it. The issue named two copies. There were seven, in four grammars: two `.sort()[0]` sites in the verification module, three `.find()` over UNSORTED readdir order (phase status, and `verification_path` twice — filesystem-dependent, so two machines on one commit could disagree), and two in shell. All seven now route through one exported `resolveVerificationFile`; the shell copies via a new `verification resolve-file` verb rather than hand-rolling the rule an eighth time. Fixing five of seven would have been worse than fixing none: the verify-work workflow is a WRITER that stamps `status: passed` onto the file it picks, so canonical-aware readers plus an alphabetical writer means the human_needed→passed canonicalization silently no-ops forever while the worksheet gets stamped. That divergence did not exist on next. The first resolver was itself a regression — it preferred ANY canonically-shaped name over the phase's own report, so a stray cross-phase or sentinel-numbered file outranked it. The global-canonical preference was removed rather than narrowed; the rule is pinned to the phase token via `PHASE_NUMBER_TOKEN_SOURCE`, its existing owner. Fixed in passing: the transition workflow's awk guarded on `NR==1` instead of `FNR==1`, so across a multi-file glob it armed only on the first file — a leading worksheet with no frontmatter blocked transition even when the canonical report passed. Also removed a U+00AD soft hyphen introduced earlier on this branch. Five broader-grammar AGGREGATE scans are deliberately out of scope — a different defect class (phase-unscoped scanning), tracked as #3511.

Changeset Fragments
This directory holds per-PR CHANGELOG fragments. Every PR with user-facing changes drops one (or more) <random-name>.md files here describing its CHANGELOG entry. Fragments are consolidated into the top-level CHANGELOG.md at release time.
Why
Two PRs that both edit the ### Fixed block of CHANGELOG.md always conflict on merge — git can't pick a serialization order without human input. Two PRs that each add a fresh .changeset/<unique-name>.md never conflict because they don't share lines.
See #2975 for the full rationale.
Adding a fragment
node scripts/changeset/new.cjs \
--type Fixed \
--pr 1234 \
--body "fix the thing — explain the user-visible change in one sentence"
This writes .changeset/<adjective>-<noun>-<noun>.md with frontmatter and a body. Three random words → concurrent PRs don't collide.
Format
---
type: Fixed
pr: 1234
---
**`/gsd-foo` no longer drops trailing slashes** — explain the user-visible change.
Allowed type: values follow Keep a Changelog: Added, Changed, Deprecated, Removed, Fixed, Security.
Opting out
PRs that legitimately have no user-facing impact can add the no-changelog label. CI honors it. When unsure, add the fragment.
At release time
Promotion is automatic. The release workflow's finalize job runs:
node scripts/changeset/cli.cjs render --version vX.Y.Z --date YYYY-MM-DD --allow-empty
This reads every fragment, groups bullets by type:, replaces ## [Unreleased] with a new ## [vX.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD block, opens a fresh ## [Unreleased] above, and deletes consumed fragments. The --allow-empty flag ensures a no-change release still gets a dated heading (with a _No notable changes._ placeholder). A subsequent verify step confirms the promotion landed correctly. Maintainers do not run this by hand.
Archived fragments
.changeset/archived/ holds fragments for already-shipped releases (≤ 1.3.1), retained for provenance. Their content was hand-curated into the dated ## [1.x.y] sections of CHANGELOG.md during the #690 backfill — they were never consumed by render. All changeset tooling enumerates .changeset/ non-recursively, so archived fragments are never picked up or rendered. Do not move them back to the top level.
