resolveReading() in bible-plan.ts preferred each YAML row's hardcoded
status: { la: missing, en: missing } over computing status from the
actually-resolved text. That field was accurate before the Vulgate/
Douay-Rheims bulk import but was never cleared once real text landed,
so every Matins bible-plan reading kept showing as untranslated
regardless. Strip the stale field from all 368 files so status falls
through to the real compute-from-resolved-text path.
Also alias book abbreviations in scripture/index.ts's lookup: the
bulk-imported store uses Vulgate-numbering codes (sap, jac, joan,
1reg..4reg, 1par/2par, 1esdr/2esdr, ...) matching octave-readings.ts's
existing convention, while bible-plan.ts's TSV import used common
English abbreviations (kgs, sam, chr, john, jas, luke, mark, ...) for
the ~30 books where the two conventions diverge. Alias at the lookup
layer so citations keep their familiar English display form.

Adds ~1017 chapter YAML files under src/data/scripture/ carrying verified
bilingual (Latin Vulgate / Douay-Rheims English) verse text, closing out
the bulk scripture import TODO.md has tracked as pending bulk-content
work. Daniel 14 (the Greek deuterocanonical addition) has no counterpart
in the Latin source and stays unauthored.
Raises the PWA precache size cap (8 -> 24 MiB) to fit the larger bundle,
repoints scripture.test.ts's "unauthored chapter" case from Genesis 1
(now authored) to Daniel 14, and adds bulk-import.test.ts asserting every
imported chapter has verified, gap-free, ordered verse text in both
languages -- tolerating the pre-existing isa-33/sir-36 pointing-split
half-verses, whose English intentionally isn't split to match.

All 4 weekdays share the exact same 2 antiphons verbatim ("Jesum qui
crucifíxus est quǽritis, allelúja..." / "Veníte et vidéte locum ubi
pósitus erat Dóminus, allelúja, allelúja."), live-verified against
Pofficium.pl (Monastic Tridentinum 1617, prayMatutinum) across
2026-04-08/09/10/11 — despite each day drawing on a different Gospel
reading in the nocturn-readings pool, the antiphon layer doesn't vary
by day.
Layered onto vu's own already-fixed per-weekday ferial psalm numbers
rather than the reference engine's own differently-sized (Rule of
Benedict summer-contracted) psalm set for these days, consistent with
this project's deliberate rejection of that contraction.
This closes "Easter's own octave" fully: calendar precedence
(2026-09-01), Sunday/Monday/Tuesday's shared proper psalmody, and now
Wednesday-Saturday's antiphons (both 2026-09-02).

Easter Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday of the Octave share winner {kind:
temporal, id: easter-sunday}, and now share one live-verified proper
Matins psalmody: Nocturn 1 (Ps 1,2,8,15,23,27 under one antiphon),
Nocturn 2 (Ps 29,63,65,75,87,107 under one antiphon), Nocturn 3 (the
same 3 canticles already authored for the ordinary-Paschaltide
seasonal override, under its own antiphon) — sourced from
Pofficium.pl (Monastic Tridentinum 1617, prayMatutinum) against
2026-04-05/06/07. All 3 nocturn-closing versicles are byte-identical
to the ones already authored for the Paschaltide override, confirming
those are shared season-wide rather than coincidentally reused. The
12 patristic lessons were already authored in an earlier sweep
(nocturn-readings/easter-sunday.yml) and needed no new work.
Restricted to just these 3 days via the new weekdays field: the
Octave's other 4 weekdays (Wed-Sat) share the same winner id but have
their own different, not-yet-authored antiphons, tracked as a
separate open item in TODO.md.

The 1-nocturn ferial branch was rendering a V./R. versicle stuck
mid-list, as if marking a nocturn boundary that doesn't exist in a
single continuous nocturn. Live-verified against the reference engine
(Pofficium.pl, Monastic Tridentinum 1617) for Wednesday and Thursday:
the real office runs straight from the last psalm to the Capitulum,
with no versicle anywhere in the psalmody. The embedded mid-list V./R.
line in the source Psalmi matutinum.txt is inert there and was never
actually emitted by the engine — matins-ferial-antiphons.yml's

Passion week's ferias (Mon-Sat before Palm Sunday) fell through to
passiontide's bare ordinary-feria default, letting any real feast win
outright regardless of rank. Live-verified against the reference engine:
swept every date that can land in this window across a century of Easter
dates and found zero sub-Duplex winners -- every real winner is Duplex+.
This was letting vu's own low-ranked calendar saints (e.g. Ss. Tiburtius/

the responsory's closing Gloria on what should stay a penitential day.

The Monastic-rite versicle "V. Dómine, lábia mea apéries. R. Et os

Replaced the multi-day cascading queue with the actual intended design:
only candidates at or above duplex-majus are worth carrying out of the
Palm-Sunday-through-Low-Sunday span at all - below that, a candidate
simply lapses for the year. Of those that clear the floor, the Nth day
after Low Sunday celebrates the Nth one (native-date order), winning
outright with no rank fight, demoting whatever's natively there to a
commemoration - one per day, positional, not a free-day search.
Caught a real bug while re-verifying: the ordinary single-hop transfer
check was independently leaking Low Sunday's own signal into the next
day, letting a below-floor candidate bypass the new gate. Fixed by
excluding the whole span from that path.
Inventoried the only duplex-majus+ candidates that can ever fall in the
reachable window (St. Benedict, St. Gabriel the Archangel, the
Annunciation, St. Mark, Ss. Philip & James), then bumped St. Patrick's
own rank to duplex-majus by direct instruction, adding him as the 6th.

Following the Ascensiontide fix, swept every remaining unverified Sunday/
feria precedence tier against the live reference engine:
- commemorations.ts's privileged-sunday rule was itself wrong: a
duplex-majus+ candidate was given a bare commemoration instead of
transferring, never actually verified. Live-checked the Immaculate
Conception (transfers off Advent II) and the Annunciation (transfers
off Palm/Easter Sunday) - confirmed correct by direct instruction.
privileged-sunday now transfers every rank unconditionally.
- eastertide's own Sunday tier was backwards (privileged-sunday instead
of ordinary-sunday) for the ordinary Sundays after Easter - live-
verified twice (Finding of the Holy Cross, St. Mark both win outright).
Easter Day itself still needs the stronger tier, now special-cased
directly since Sundays never consult the offset table.
Six existing tests updated to reflect real, live-verified behavior - each
had the old wrong "commemorated in place" assumption baked into its
expected value. Remaining unverified entries (Vigil of Pentecost/
Christmas, Corpus Christi/Sacred Heart) documented as such rather than
silently assumed correct.

The Sunday within the Octave of Ascension was letting a Duplex saint win
outright (ascensiontide's Sunday was miscategorized ordinary-sunday

Confirmed two related non-gaps while investigating: Christmastide/post-

Every cross-psalm pair previously shared one antiphon under just the
first psalm, which read inconsistently once psalter-distribution.yml's
reslice left some pairs intact and split others. Each pair is now two
single-psalm groups: the psalm whose own words the shared antiphon
actually quoted keeps it, and its former partner gets a real antiphon
borrowed from elsewhere in the reference corpus where one exists, else
one composed fresh from its own opening verse.
Kyrie eleison and Pater Noster now render every day regardless of rank

Corrected an earlier "no source exists" claim by live-querying real
commemorated instances of the Vigils of St. Lawrence and the Assumption
across six different weekdays. Their source files' own [Rule] block
("Versum Feria") turns out to be a real, sourced mechanism, not an
absence: a mere commemoration doesn't reuse the vigil's own antiphon at
all -- it borrows the plain ferial day's antiphon/versicle instead, and
that antiphon quotes the Benedictus canticle in weekday sequence (same
shape vespers-magnificat-antiphons.yml already uses for the Magnificat).
The versicle is a single fixed text. Sunday has no entry: a Vigil
transfers off an ordinary Sunday rather than ever reaching a
commemoration there, confirmed live as well as already true in this
app's own precedence rules.
sanctoralCommemorationPart now takes weekday and resolves this
dynamically for common-of-a-vigil saints, rather than needing a static
per-saint file. All 218 saints with an authored collect now have a real
commemoration antiphon.

versicle plus each feast's own antiphon), angels (4, versicle inferred
from a saint file's own "structural category" note), Confessor-Doctor/
-Pope (7, resolved to C4a/C5a/C4b -- each inheriting its base category's
Ant2/Versum2 unchanged, no new content needed), several confessors and
apostles-plural (2, reusing already-sourced category versicles), and 5
fully-proper feasts (All Saints x2, Finding of the Holy Cross, Most
Precious Blood, Transfiguration, Our Lady of Ransom) given their own
real Ant2/Versum2 straight from their Sancti files.
213 of ~218 real saints now covered. Only the 5 Vigils remain open --
no dedicated Commune template exists for that category in the reference

Found that 217 of 220 saints with an authored collect had no

for St. Raymond Nonnatus and the Decollation of St. John the Baptist).
Bulk-fixed: reused each saint's own proper antiphon where authored, else
the standard de-Communi [Ant 2]/[Versum 2] for that saint's own Common
category. Confirmed via three already live-verified commemorations
(Ss. Felix and Adauctus, St. Clare, St. Sabina) that [Ant 2]/[Versum 2]
are the real tags used for a mere commemoration, not [Ant 1]/[Nocturn 2
Versum] as first assumed -- corrected St. Raymond Nonnatus's file

advent-4's own remaining Magnificat-antiphon gap turned out to be a
mechanism problem, not missing content: Dec 17-23 always carries one of
the seven "O Antiphons" at Vespers, keyed to the calendar date itself,
not to whichever Advent week (advent-3 or advent-4, varies by year)
happens to govern that date -- a single per-week file was structurally
the wrong shape.
Added vespers-o-antiphons.yml (MM-DD keyed) and a new lookup tier in
getMagnificatAntiphon, checked unconditionally ahead of both the
per-week temporal file and a real sanctoral winner's own antiphon --
direct instruction: the O Antiphon wins this one text slot on these
seven dates regardless of who otherwise wins the day (e.g. St. Thomas,
Dec 21, still keeps every other part of his own office). Two of the
seven (O Clavis David/O Oriens, Dec 20-21) couldn't be live-verified --
every reference-engine track routes those two dates through St.
Thomas's Vigil/feast instead, which this app's own vigil-of-st-thomas.yml

Both Canticle of Moses entries carried a book-name parenthetical in
their display name, redundant with (and now, since the last commit,
duplicated verbatim by) the citation shown right underneath. Only one
canticle is ever displayed per day, so there's nothing to disambiguate
in the UI -- trim to plain "Canticle of Moses" for both.

The user-facing citation field carried an explanatory aside
("liturgical division; split across two Lauds slots") instead of a
plain reference. Move that explanation into the file's own header
comment (which already existed) and leave citation as just "Deut
32:1-65".

Live-verified against Divinum Officium (Tridentine 1906/1910 and
Divino Afflatu 1954, Sancti/08-29.txt) — the feast's own 5-antiphon
set ([Ant Vespera], reused verbatim at Lauds as [Ant Laudes]), now
wired through both the newly rank-agnostic Lauds/Vespers proper tier
and the new minor-hour derivation mechanism. Vespers gets only the
first four (mapped onto vu's Monastic-1617-structured four-psalm
Vespers, matching common-of-a-martyr.yml's own 109/111/112/115
baseline) — the reference's own fifth antiphon is a secular five-
psalm-Vespers detail that doesn't apply here, and is used only at
Lauds' Laudate psalm instead.

nativity-of-st-john-the-baptist.yml's `common` field (common-of-an-apostle)
was the same mistaken placeholder as the Beheading's, but this feast
needed a different fix: the reference engine assigns it no Commune at
all -- every [Rule] line in Sancti/06-24.txt and SanctiM/06-24.txt points
to proper text, never a Commune category -- so there's no better-fitting
id to swap in either.
Authored the real proper content that was still falling through to the
apostle Common, live-verified against the local Divinum Officium CGI
instance (Monastic Tridentinum 1617):
- Matins invitatory antiphon ("Regem Præcursóris Dóminum")
- Matins hymn ("Antra desérti téneris," with the Monastic doxology
substitution already used by this feast's own Lauds/Vespers hymns)
- Full Matins Nocturn 1-3 psalmody + nocturn versicles (Nocturn 1/2 reuse
St. Lawrence's own shared psalm-number pool per "Psalmi Dominica";
Nocturn 3 reuses St. Lawrence's own canticle scripture files verbatim,
since the citations are identical)
- Vespers psalmody (only 4 psalm slots at this Monastic rank, not 5 as a
naive reading of the raw Ant Vespera list would suggest)
- Nocturn 2/3 responsories on the existing nocturn-readings file
`common: common-of-an-apostle` is left in place as a fully inert
placeholder (a non-optional field with no better id available) with an
updated comment explaining why.

decollation-of-st-john-baptist.yml's `common` field was set to
common-of-an-apostle -- a mistaken placeholder (he isn't an apostle) that
leaked into the Aug 29 Matins invitatory and the Lauds/Vespers office
bundle. Corrected to common-of-a-martyr, matching the file's own already-
correct `minorHoursCommon` field.
Also corrected a stale comment in the feast's own nocturn-readings file
claiming neither Nocturn 2 nor 3 has a proper responsory: Nocturn 2's own
closing responsory is genuine proper text (not a Commune reference like
Nocturn 3's), and is now authored.

compline-preces.yml was already the secular Tridentine 1906/1910 text
word-for-word (verified live against both tracks), so no text change
was needed there. The actual gap: both Monastic and secular tracks drop
Compline's Preces to nothing on a Double-or-higher, unlike Vespers/Lauds
which fall back to a short form. Per explicit request, this is now a
deliberate vu-specific deviation from both tracks: on a Double, Compline
substitutes the same short Kyrie/Pater-Noster litany Vespers already
falls back to on Sundays/feasts, instead of showing nothing.

St. Mark's and St. Luke's own reference-engine rule files say "ex C1a",
byte-identical to plain C1 (Apostles) -- an Evangelist-not-Apostle
reuses the Apostles' own scheme, not a separate one.
Ss. Perpetua and Felicity's own file says "vide C7b"; C7b returns the
same four psalm numbers and group/canticle/Laudate antiphons as plain
C7 (Holy Woman) -- its only real difference is the Magnificat/Benedictus
antiphon, handled by a separate, already-existing mechanism, not this
psalmody table. (First-draft duplicate category files for this id were
written and then deleted once this was caught by diffing line-by-line
against the live output.)

Genuinely its own scheme (votive=C8) -- unlike every other Common,
Vespers' numbers (109/110/111/147) don't match any other category's
pattern. Lauds' own version is left unauthored: its OT canticle
("Canticum Ieremiae") has never been transcribed anywhere in this app,
so that file isn't written rather than guessed at (see TODO.md).

No dedicated numbered Common exists for Angels in the reference engine;
St. Michael's own rule says plain "Psalmi Dominica" with his own proper
antiphons, which Guardian Angels (no proper of her own) reuses
byte-for-byte at both hours. Authored as a reusable category so any
future proper-less Angel addition benefits automatically.

Vespers psalms on Mon-Sat were silently following the anticipated
First-Vespers day's weekday instead of the actual calendar date's, since
resolvePsalmody reused resolveEveningDay's result (correct for
propers/office, which legitimately borrow tomorrow's identity, but wrong
for the ferial psalm cycle, which has no per-feast override of its own).
Also adds a duplex-majus+ Common-category psalmody override to both
Lauds and Vespers, mirroring Matins' existing saint/category mechanism.
Lauds already had a per-feast-only override; Vespers had none. 8 of 24
Common categories authored for both hours, live-verified against the
reference engine.
