macOS ships bash 3.2 as /bin/bash, which `#!/usr/bin/env bash` resolves to
when no newer bash is on PATH. Two builtins the repo relies on do not exist
there, and both failed SILENTLY:
- `mapfile` in the three surgical-commit helpers left every array empty, so
the scope guards passed on nothing (fail-OPEN) and the commits degraded to
"nothing pending — no-op" while reporting success. deploy-commit.test.sh
went 4/16; memory and doc commits simply never happened.
- `declare -A` in the session-start hook errored on every session and left
each plugin cost at 0, so the passive-budget warning could never fire.
`_read_lines_into` is the portable equivalent of `mapfile`, space-safe and
resetting its target first — expanding a never-assigned array trips `set -u`
on bash < 4.4, which is how the empty arrays surfaced as "unbound variable".
Plugin costs move to a `case`.
source-scope.sh's header prescribed `mapfile` to its callers; it now shows
the read loop, and its own test plus run-reconcile.sh stop using the builtin.
deploy-commit 16/16, source-scope 34/34, run-reconcile 25 GREEN / 0 RED,
session-start stderr empty.
lib/deploy-commit.sh: a rejected `git commit` (pre-commit hook,
protected branch, signing failure) now exits 6 (loud stderr, distinct
from rc 1's "nothing to do") instead of sharing rc 1 with the no-op
cases. Header comment documents the full 0/1/2/3/4/5/6 taxonomy.
Closes J4-22 (UNTESTABLE): at client repos, a failed deploy-state
commit was indistinguishable BY EXIT CODE from "nothing to do" (rc 1
was shared 3 ways); exit-code-only callers couldn't disambiguate
(stderr-parsing callers already could).
Caller census (per report's explicit gate): skills/deploy/SKILL.md
documents and parses this exit-code contract in TWO places (bootstrap
commit + incident-recovery commit). Flagged to the user before
committing; confirmed GO to add rc 6 there too (additive — no existing
code's meaning changes) so the documented contract stays accurate for
live deploy runs.
New T10 in lib/tests/deploy-commit.test.sh (+3 assertions, 13→16):
rejecting pre-commit hook sandbox — asserts rc 6, empty stdout (no
stale hash), HEAD unmoved.
GREEN: full `make test` exit 0 (deploy-commit 16/16 incl. T10).
shellcheck clean, bash -n clean.
