Fix Ascensiontide Sunday precedence and give it its own Matins proper
Deploy / deploy (push) Successful in 1m27s

The Sunday within the Octave of Ascension was letting a Duplex saint win
outright (ascensiontide's Sunday was miscategorized ordinary-sunday
instead of privileged-sunday, the only "great octave" season not already
so classed). Live-verified the reference engine keeps the Sunday primary
and transfers the saint instead. Fixed the category, then authored the
Sunday's own wholly proper Matins (a different psalm scheme entirely, not
a seasonal overlay) via a new per-temporalId override layer.

### Sunday within the Octave of Ascension: real precedence bug, fixed (2026-09-01)
User pushed back on the "not a bug" conclusion above: correctly — the "Duplex+ saint wins
outright over an Ascensiontide Sunday" case was a real precedence bug, not settled design.
`data/calendar/temporal-categories.yml` had `ascensiontide`'s Sunday coded `ordinary-sunday`
(Duplex+ wins outright), the only "great octave" season not already `privileged-sunday`
(eastertide/pentecost both already were) — no verification comment on that line, unlike every
other entry in the file. Live-verified (proof date 2026-05-17, St. Paschal Baylon, real Duplex):
the reference engine titles the day "Dominica infra Octavam Ascensionis ~ Semiduplex Dominica
minor" and gives it its own wholly proper Matins, no trace of the saint. Fixed: `ascensiontide`
is now `privileged-sunday`, matching eastertide/pentecost — St. Paschal Baylon now transfers
(`decideOccurrence`'s existing generic privileged-sunday branch handled this correctly with no
new code, just the corrected category).
With the calendar now resolving the *right* winner (the Sunday itself, `sunday-after-ascension`),
Matins still needed real content: this Sunday's own proper is a wholly different psalm scheme
from the fixed 12-psalm base — Ps 8/10/18/20/23/29 for Nocturn I, Ps 45/46/95/96/98/102 for
Nocturn II, each of the 12 psalms individually antiphoned (not paired) — plus its own versicles.
Nocturn III reuses the same 3 canticles as the ordinary-Paschaltide override (Isa 63:1-5, Osee
6:1-6, Sophonias 3:8-13, already authored) under its own antiphon ("Illi autem profécti
prædicavérunt ubíque...") — English for that one antiphon is this app's own translation (the
reference engine's own English tree is genuinely blank there, confirmed not a fetch gap), since
it's an unambiguous, well-known formula (Mark 16:20).
New `data/hours/matins-sunday-named-nocturn-overrides.yml` — a per-`temporalId` override layer
(currently just `sunday-after-ascension`) for a specific privileged Sunday whose own proper is
wholesale different, distinct from the season-wide Advent/Paschaltide overrides above.
`hours/matins.ts`'s `sundayNocturnFor` now checks this map first (most specific), ahead of the
season-wide overrides, ahead of the plain default.
New regression tests in `tests/hours/matins.test.ts` (`Sunday within the Octave of Ascension`)
assert both the calendar winner (Sunday over the saint) and the full Matins content. `npm test`
(821 passed), `tsc --noEmit`, and `npm run build` all pass.
