What

Moves SWREQ-FALCON-TRACE-P02 from falcon-v1.133.0 to falcon-v1.134.0.

v1.133 scope after this: OCI-P02, OCI-P04, REL-P01
v1.134 scope after this: OCI-P03, TRACE-P02

Why

v1.133 is the OCI/release arc — the no_std cascade conversion, the WIT namespace
rename, and draft-then-finalize release ordering. That arc is
implementation-complete and waiting only on CI.

TRACE-P02 (drive implementedverified from the verification gate’s own
per-artifact result) is independent of it, and is a large sweep in its own right:
of the 140 sw-reqs TRACE-P01 backfilled, 137 link only to verifiers that are
themselves unpromoted. Holding the OCI arc behind that sweep buys nothing.

This is a deliberate scope move, logged in the artifact itself rather than
done silently — per the release-planning rule that deferral is a scope decision,
surfaced, not quiet.

Not in this PR

No code. No status change — TRACE-P02 stays proposed. This is only the
release: field and its rationale, so the two-commit rule is not in play.

Evidence

  • rivet validatePASS (352 warnings, all pre-existing)
  • v1.133 scope re-queried after the edit; the three OCI/release artifacts are
    the complete set

Correction

This PR originally carried Verify-Filter: (has-tag "traceability"). That filter
matches 0 of 195 sw-verification artifacts — traceability is a tag on
sw-reqs, not on verifications — so it would have passed the gate vacuously
(0/0 passed, rendered with a ✅).

The override is removed; this PR now runs the default (has-tag "falcon")
sweep. The underlying fail-open is fixed separately in #342.

Authored during the 2026-08-06 GitHub Actions major outage (started 15:22Z);
checks will not dispatch until Actions recovers.

v1.133's scope is the OCI/release arc (OCI-P02 no_std cascade, OCI-P04 WIT
namespace, REL-P01 draft-then-finalize), which is implementation-complete and
waiting only on CI. TRACE-P02 (drive implemented->verified from the gate's own
per-artifact result) is independent of that arc and large enough to warrant its
own release rather than holding the OCI arc behind it.

Deliberate scope move, logged in the artifact itself rather than done silently.
No code, no status change: TRACE-P02 stays `proposed`.

v1.133 scope after this: OCI-P02, OCI-P04, REL-P01.
v1.134 scope after this: OCI-P03, TRACE-P02.

`rivet validate` PASS.

The push that would have triggered CI landed during the outage (Actions was in
major_outage 15:22Z-00:0xZ; zero runs were created repo-wide for hours), so no
run exists for this branch. Empty commit to generate a fresh synchronize event.
Squash-merge drops it from main.

* fix(ci): a Verify-Filter matching zero artifacts must not pass the gate

The verification gate is a REQUIRED check, and it could be silenced by a
one-word change to the PR body.

`scripts/run-falcon-verification.py` exits 0 when its filter matches nothing —
correctly, in isolation: no artifact ran, so none failed. But the gate's verdict
is exactly that exit code (`steps.verify.outcome`), so a `Verify-Filter:` that
matches zero artifacts turns a required safety gate green while verifying
nothing. It even renders "✅ Rivet verification gate — 0/0 passed" into the
sticky PR comment, so the deception is not visible to a reviewer skimming it.

The PR body is attacker-controllable. The INJECTION risk was already handled
(env-bound, quoted, never interpolated into run:) — but the SEMANTIC trust of
the filter was not: an untrusted string decides how much verification happens,
and "none" was an accepted answer.

Caught empirically, not by review: `(has-tag "traceability")` reads perfectly
plausible and matches 0 of the 195 sw-verification artifacts, because that tag
lives on sw-reqs, not on verifications. I had put exactly that filter on #341.

Fix: after the sweep, fail if the script reports `0 artifact(s) matched`.

Verified locally:
  (has-tag "traceability") -> 0 artifacts -> guard fires
  (has-tag "oci")          -> 1 artifact  -> no false positive
  (has-tag "falcon")       -> 156 artifacts (the default)

* fix(ci): raise the verification-gate timeout 90 -> 150 (STOPGAP, see #350)

The sweep has grown into its own ceiling. Measured across one day, same
156-artifact sweep:

  #340  ~63m      success
  #344  1h30m21s  FAILURE — killed at timeout-minutes: 90
  #344  (earlier) cancelled
  #342  failed twice the same way
  #343  success twice

Variance now exceeds headroom, so a REQUIRED check is decided by runner load
rather than by whether anything is wrong. And a timeout surfaces as `fail`,
indistinguishable from a real failure unless you read the duration — which
already cost a diagnosis cycle. Worst of all, it was blocking the two PRs
meant to improve this gate (#342 fail-open fix, #343 sweep speedup).

Raising the ceiling does not weaken the gate: it is being KILLED, not failing.

Landing it here because this PR already owns this file and is itself blocked by
the timeout it fixes.

THIS IS A STOPGAP and the third reactive bump (60 -> 90 -> 150). The trend is
the real problem: 45m in July, >=90m now. #350 tracks it, and names the next
measurement — the compile-vs-test split ON the runner. The sweep spans 64
crates with 29 `--release` steps, so compilation is the likely dominant cost;
whole-crate -> named conversion (#343/#262) is right for traceability but,
measured, will not close a 30-minute gap on its own (the non-falcon-core
offenders run in 0-5s).

* fix(ci): my zero-match guard emitted INVALID YAML — backslash continuation at column 0

Self-inflicted, and it broke the very gate the guard was meant to strengthen.

The guard's error message used a backslash-continued string whose continuation
lines started at COLUMN 0:

    echo "::error::Verify-Filter matched 0 ... — \
  refusing to pass a gate that verified nothing. Fix the filter or drop the \
  override to use the default."

Inside a `run: |` block scalar, a line at column 0 TERMINATES the block. The
whole workflow file was therefore invalid YAML from the moment I added the
guard, which is almost certainly why this PR's verification gate failed twice —
NOT the 90-minute timeout I attributed it to in the previous commit.

`python3 -c "yaml.safe_load(...)"` reports:
  ScannerError: while scanning a simple key, line 234 ... could not find
  expected ':'

Fixed by keeping the message on one line, with a comment saying why, so the
next person does not "tidy" it back into a continuation.

Lesson worth the comment: I verified this file for the thing I was thinking
about (no `${{ }}` inside `run:` — which I DID check, with a parser) and not
for whether it still parsed at all. Both checks now run.

  YAML parses: OK, timeout-minutes=150
  ${{ }} inside run: blocks: none
