Throughout Paschaltide (Eastertide/Ascensiontide/Pentecost), two
things happen wherever they'd otherwise show: the ordinary
5-suffrage set (Cross/BVM/Joseph/Apostles/Peace) collapses into one
alleluia-form "Suffragium Paschale" (Lauds and Vespers each have
their own distinct antiphon here, unlike the ordinary suffrages,
which share identical text at both hours), and the ferial-Preces
litany drops entirely rather than being replaced. Live-verified
against the reference source's own [Suffragium] macro directly,
byte-identical between Monastic Tridentinum 1617 and Tridentine 1906.
Exported isPaschaltide(season) from resolve-common.ts (wraps the
pre-existing PASCHALTIDE_SEASONS set). resolveSuffrages gained a
third hourId parameter to pick the right antiphon; the Preces
omission is a small new check gated on the same isFerialOrVigil
predicate that already selects the ferial litany form.
Authored lauds-suffrage-paschale.yml and vespers-suffrage-
paschale.yml -- English on the Vespers antiphon is this project's own
translation (the reference engine leaves it untranslated) and marked
draft; everything else verified.
Closes the last item in TODO.md's "Mechanism gaps" priority tier.

Same shape as the earlier Lauds capitulum/responsory/versicle fix
this session: real content, just never live-query-verified. Live-
verified Vespers' whole bundle (capitulum/responsory/hymn/versicle,
including the hymn's own claimed Monastic word-swap) against a plain
Lenten Wednesday (2026-03-04). Lauds' own hymn and both hours'
doxology-per-annum files were already seen live earlier the same
session (checking lauds-hymn-saturday.yml's real content against a
Lenten Ember Saturday) -- byte-identical, just needed the status
flipped. No more draft Lent content anywhere in this app.

Trinity Sunday wasn't modeled at all: getDayLabel had a purely
cosmetic "Trinity Sunday" label overlay for the Sunday after
Pentecost, but resolveTemporalId just fell back to post-pentecost-01
(ordinary-sunday category), so any Duplex+ saint assigned that date
(e.g. the Queenship of the BVM, fixed May 31) won outright, real
Trinity Sunday content never appearing anywhere.
Added a real temporal-feasts/trinity-sunday.yml record (Easter+56,
Duplex II. classis, live-verified). Per direct instruction,
unconditional: true (same shape as christ-the-king.yml) -- a
principal Sunday shouldn't lose a same-rank fixed-date collision, and
the one real collision case (Queenship of the BVM) isn't
independently verifiable against Monastic 1617 at all (that calendar
doesn't carry the Queenship feast -- May 31 there is St. Petronilla
instead).
Authored the full office and registered trinity-sunday in
ALWAYS_OVERRIDE_TEMPORAL_IDS -- the same generic mechanism already
built for the Pentecost-cluster fix, no new code needed: collect,
Benedictus/Magnificat antiphons, Matins hymn ("Summæ Deus cleméntiæ"),
Lauds/Vespers chapter (shared, Rom 11:33) and hymn (shared, "O lux
beáta Trínitas", already the pre-Urban VIII text), each hour's own
distinct responsory/versicle -- all live-verified 2026-05-31.
Fixed 3 pre-existing tests written around the old cosmetic-label
behavior, two of which had never-verified guesses baked in as if
correct: day-label.test.ts's "names the anchor day itself" test and
its "outranks an active octave" test (was asserting "Duplex I Class",
a guess -- the real live-verified rank is Duplex II);
transfer.test.ts's St. Felix I test.

Same fix as ember-september-friday.yml (already done): each file's
Lectio1-3 turned out to be one continuous, unbroken homily (Bede,
Gregory, or Ambrose's Commentary on Luke for the two Advent cases,
cross-referenced from the Annunciation's own Common and confirmed
contiguous by reading the source file directly), split only to fill
the fixed 3-lesson slot count. Recombined ember-september-wednesday/
-saturday and ember-advent-wednesday/-friday/-saturday into single
readings, keeping each one's first lesson's own responsory.
All 6 Ember days now recombined -- no remaining split-for-no-reason
readings in this family. Updated ember-days.test.ts's lesson-count

Same gap and same generic mechanism fix as Ascension/Pentecost --
just needed the ids added to ALWAYS_OVERRIDE_TEMPORAL_IDS plus real
content. Both feasts have 3 genuinely different hymns, one per hour:
Corpus Christi's own are widely known outside this context too
("Sacris solémniis" at Matins, "Verbum supérnum pródiens" at Lauds
whose last 2 stanzas are "O Salutaris Hostia", "Pange, lingua,
gloriósi Córporis mystérium" at Vespers whose last 2 stanzas are
"Tantum Ergo").
Sacred Heart needed one source-track correction: Monastic Tridentinum
1617 doesn't observe this feast on this date at all (shows St.
Barnabas instead) -- used Divino Afflatu 1954 instead, this project's
own stated rubric track. Also live-verified a genuine structural
difference: Sacred Heart's own Lauds/Vespers have no responsory at
all in the source (straight chapter to hymn) -- not an authoring gap.
Fixed lauds.ts's and vespers.ts's own resolveOffice to omit the
responsory part entirely when its status is missing in both
languages, instead of always rendering an empty section.
Authored matins-hymn-{corpus-christi,sacred-heart}.yml,
lauds-{capitulum,responsory,hymn,versicle}-corpus-christi.yml,
vespers-{responsory,hymn,versicle}-corpus-christi.yml,
lauds-{capitulum,hymn,versicle}-sacred-heart.yml, and
vespers-{hymn,versicle}-sacred-heart.yml -- all live-verified,
2026-06-04 and 2026-06-12.
Fixed 2 pre-existing tests whose own dates now land inside these
newly-modeled octaves and were asserting the old fall-through
behavior as if correct: lauds.test.ts's FERIAL_MONDAY (moved off
2026-06-08) and vespers.test.ts's St. Margaret of Scotland test
(2026-06-09) -- its own title already anticipated this fix, just had
the wrong expected values until now.

ascension-collect via resolveOfficeWinner (the same mechanism this

Same gap as Ascension (pentecost-sunday is a temporal-feast id, not a
saint record) -- the mechanism fix from that commit is generic, so
this only needed the id added to ALWAYS_OVERRIDE_TEMPORAL_IDS plus
real content.
Unlike Ascension, Pentecost has 3 genuinely different hymns, one per
hour: "Jam Christus astra ascénderat" (Matins), "Beáta nobis gáudia"
(Lauds), "Veni Creátor Spíritus" (Vespers), each with its own real,
distinct chapter/responsory/versicle at Lauds vs. Vespers.
Authored matins-hymn-pentecost-sunday.yml, lauds-{capitulum,
responsory,hymn,versicle}-pentecost-sunday.yml, and
vespers-{responsory,hymn,versicle}-pentecost-sunday.yml (Vespers
reuses Lauds' chapter via the existing cross-hour fallback) -- all
live-verified against Divinum Officium (Monastic Tridentinum 1617),
2026-05-24. Confirmed the whole octave end-to-end via resolveOrdo,
including a real winning saint within the window (St. Augustine of
Canterbury) keeping his own hymn at Lauds/Vespers unaffected.

`ascension` is a temporal-feast id, not a saint record, so
resolveOfficeWinner's octave-synthesis (which already handles
saint-based octaves like Assumption's/St. Lawrence's) never
recognized it -- Ascension Day itself and its whole octave silently
rendered the generic Paschaltide hymn at every hour.
Fixed the mechanism: added `ascension` to ALWAYS_OVERRIDE_TEMPORAL_IDS
(covers the feast day itself), and taught resolveOfficeWinner to also
synthesize a {kind:'temporal'} winner from an active octave with no
saint record but a real temporal-feast record (covers ordinary-feria
octave days; a real winning saint within the octave still correctly
keeps priority).
A third gap surfaced testing this: octaveGoverningPrivilegedDay's
correct-by-design "a privileged Sunday never accepts an octave
override" rule is live-verified wrong specifically for "Dominica
infra Octavam Ascensionis" (keeps the octave's own hymn/responsory,
just with its own distinct proper chapter). Rather than loosen that
shared gate for every octave, gave resolveLaudsHymn/resolveVespersHymn
a narrow, hymn-only intercept guarded to saint-less octaves, checked
before the season/weekday default.
Authored matins-hymn-ascension.yml, lauds-{capitulum,responsory,hymn,
versicle}-ascension.yml, and vespers-{responsory,hymn,versicle}-
ascension.yml (Vespers reuses Lauds' chapter via the existing
cross-hour fallback) -- all live-verified against Divinum Officium

The "genuinely more complex, not-yet-understood two-hymn mechanism"
flagged for Sunday turned out simple: Day0 Hymnus ("Nocte surgéntes")
is just Sunday's plain per-annum hymn, and Day0 Hymnus1 ("Primo
diérum ómnium") is Septuagesima-tide's own separate seasonal hymn --
the same shape Advent/Lent/Passiontide/Paschaltide each already have.
Live-verified these 4 don't vary by weekday within their season (a
Lenten Sunday and a Lenten feria render identically). None of the 6
were authored at all before this -- every Sunday and every season day
not otherwise overridden by a winning saint/octave silently fell
through to Monday's own ferial placeholder text.
Authored matins-hymn-{sunday,septuagesima,advent,lent,passiontide,
paschaltide}.yml, all live-verified, self-contained with their own
real closing doxology baked in. Septuagesima is checked directly by
day.season in resolveMatinsHymn itself, deliberately not folded into
the shared seasonalOfficeSuffix (Lauds/Vespers have no matching
content yet -- resolveOfficeBundle there is all-or-nothing per feast,
so adding it would silently blank their chapter/hymn instead of
falling through to their current weekday default).
Known, flagged simplification: the generic Paschaltide hymn wrongly
applies during the Ascension octave, whose own real hymn isn't
authored anywhere yet -- a same-shape gap Lauds already has, not a
new regression. Updated 2 FERIAL_DATE (a Tuesday in Advent) hymn
assertions that had been asserting Tuesday's own ferial text --
Advent's own seasonal hymn correctly outranks the weekday cycle now.

Design (direct instruction): Marian Saturday is its own rank tier,
between simplex and vigil in vu's FeastClass scale -- beats a plain
Simplex saint (commemorated in return), loses cleanly with zero trace
to anything Vigil-or-higher. Deliberately not the full historical
Officium Sabbatorum B.M.V. ("no little office"): ferial psalmody is
kept everywhere, only the antiphons swap to Marian text; Matins and
Lauds each get a real proper Marian hymn; the Marian collect applies
whenever the day wins.
The calendar-side mechanism (calendar/index.ts's applyMarianSaturday)
and a collect/Benedictus antiphon already existed from an earlier
session -- authored what was still missing: matins-hymn-marian-
saturday.yml (Matins had nothing at all) and lauds-{capitulum,
responsory,hymn,versicle}-marian-saturday.yml.
Also found and fixed 3 real bugs from that earlier, unverified pass:
Lauds' own hymn ("O gloriósa Dómina") was sitting under the plain
ferial lauds-hymn-saturday id instead of its own marian-saturday id;
that id's capitulum/responsory/versicle siblings were live-verified
from a different, privileged Lenten Ember Saturday, not a genuine
per-annum ferial Saturday -- corrected to the real content ("Auróra
jam spargit polum" / Rom 13:12-13 / "Sana ánimam meam" / "Repléti
sumus mane misericórdia tua", live-verified against a clean September
Ember Saturday); and the Lauds psalmody override used the real
historical proper psalm set (92/99/62) instead of the ferial one,
rolled back per direct instruction to plain ferial psalms (50, 142,
the split Canticle of Moses) with only the antiphons swapped.

matins-hymn-ferial.yml turned out to already be Monday's own hymn
("Somno reféctis ártubus"), mislabeled as a single fixed year-round
text and used unconditionally for every weekday -- the source
(Psalterium/Special/Matutinum Special.txt) genuinely varies this hymn
Monday through Saturday, the classic "week of hymns". Caught first on
Friday ("Tu Trinitátis Únitas" expected, Monday's text shown), then
again on a real Ember Saturday ("Summæ Deus cleméntiæ" expected).
Authored matins-hymn-ferial-{tuesday,wednesday,thursday,friday,
saturday}.yml (Monastic 1617 text, live-verified against the CGI
instance directly, including Friday's own real M-track word-swaps) and
wired resolveMatinsHymn's final fallback tier to pick by day.weekday.
Sunday is left on the existing placeholder, documented as a real,

Live-verified (Monastic Tridentinum 1617) that an Ember day's Lauds
psalmody stays on the plain ferial default throughout -- only the
Benedictus antiphon (and, Wednesday/Friday only, the Magnificat

4 Magnificat antiphon files (Ember Saturday's Second Vespers is
always ceded to the following Sunday on both quarters, so no

Closes the gap this whole sweep started from: Nocturn 3 on
post-pentecost-13/14 showed St. Augustine's homily with no Gospel
citation or text above it. Fixes all remaining post-pentecost-NN ids
(01-14, 16-24; -15 already had this from the original mechanism proof)
the same way as the rest of the sweep, plus Trinity Sunday's second
Nocturn 3 pair — the "Commemoration of the First Sunday after
Pentecost," whose Gospel (Luke 6:36-42) has no live date to source from
since Trinity always occupies that slot, so it's sourced from the
reference engine's preserved pre-displacement Mass propers file
instead. Also fixes a stray-space formatting glitch in
post-pentecost-19's existing homily text, found while sourcing.

Same gap as the Advent/Christmas sweep: Nocturn 3's patristic homily
appeared with no Gospel pericope before it. Authors the full text for
post-epiphany-1 through -6, septuagesima/sexagesima/quinquagesima,
lent-1 through -4, passion-sunday, and palm-sunday.
Palm Sunday needed a different source than the rest: its Missale
[Evangelium] tag is the Passion narrative (Matt 26-27) proclaimed at
Mass, not the entry-into-Jerusalem pericope (Matt 21:1-9) its own
Nocturn 3 homily is actually about — that shorter Gospel is instead
read at the Blessing of Palms, sourced from there.

Nocturn 3 previously dropped the bare "Et réliqua" Gospel incipit and
kept only the patristic homily, so the Gospel citation and text never
appeared. Authors the full pericope before the homily for advent-1
through advent-4 and christmas-octave-sunday, sourced from the
reference engine's Missale Gospel files. Authoring Advent 4's Gospel
surfaces a genuine second Matins Gospel on the rare Dec-24-as-Advent-4
collision (2023/2028), so the affected test now expects both readings
instead of one.

Lauds' Monastic source never carries the "*" substitution marker anywhere
(audited), so this is purely the same deliberate broadening as the Vespers
commit: every plain-default hymn (Sunday, Mon-Sat, Advent, Lent,
Passiontide, Paschaltide) now routes its closing doxology through
getHymnDoxologyId/appendDoxology instead of a fixed ending, split into
matching per-annum companion files that reproduce the original text
whenever no season/feast override applies.

Sunday's hymn ("Lucis Creator") is the one case whose Monastic source text
carries a real "*" seasonal-substitution marker (live-checked); every other
key (Mon-Sat, Advent, Lent, Passiontide, Paschaltide) is wired the same way
anyway as a deliberate broadening beyond the source, at the user's request
("the doxology is a neat way to stay tuned in to the season... we're doing a
remix, not a copy"). Each hymn's own natural ending is split into a matching
per-annum companion file, so a season/feast with no override reproduces the
original text exactly; only Nat/Epi/Pasch/Asc/Pent/Corp/Heart and the two
feast/date overrides from the previous commit actually change anything.
Real visible effect: hymns shown during Christmastide/Epiphanytide/Corpus
Christi/Sacred Heart (none of which get a distinct seasonal hymn, so these
were always the plain weekday defaults) now pick up the right doxology
instead of a generic ending; Ascensiontide and the Pentecost octave now
diverge from the rest of Paschaltide's doxology mid-season.

Every other post-Pentecost week's own file already attaches "Duo
Séraphim" (the closing responsory before Te Deum) to the hour's *last*
reading, overriding the usual "first one, when several collapse"
convention for exactly this responsory. post-pentecost-15 was the only
week not following that pattern -- its last (homily) reading kept
Lectio 10's own responsory instead. Swapped it in, matching the other
23 weeks; removes the now-resolved "needs an hour-level responsory

Follow-up to the earlier bulk pass. Sourced the remaining category
templates: BVM feasts (13, reused the already-verified BVM suffrage
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
engine, and FeastClass 'vigil' rarely reaches the commemoration code
path anyway.

Found that 217 of 220 saints with an authored collect had no
${propers}-commemoration.yml bundle, so sanctoralCommemorationPart was
silently falling back to a bare collect with no antiphon whenever that
saint was merely commemorated rather than winning outright (user-reported
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
accordingly. 182 of ~218 real saints now covered; entries not
independently live-verified are marked draft. Remaining ~36 (BVM feasts,
angels, confessor-doctors/popes, vigils) tracked in TODO.md.
New tests/propers/commemoration-sweep.test.ts (182 cases) asserts every
bundle has a real antiphon+versicle+collect, never bare/missing.

Same bare-collect-only gap as Ss. Felix and Adauctus: both saints were
falling back to a plain collect with no antiphon when merely commemorated
(today's and yesterday's Vespers respectively). Raymond has no proper
antiphon of his own, so uses the standard Common-of-a-Confessor-Not-Bishop
text; the Decollation reuses his own already-authored proper Lauds
antiphon, paired with the generic Common-of-a-Martyr versicle. Both
live/reference-verified.

Their commemoration was falling back to a bare collect (only
ss-felix-and-adauctus-collect.yml existed, no combined Ant+V/R bundle),
so it rendered with no antiphon at Lauds when they're commemorated on a
Sunday (today, 2026-08-30). Live-verified against that exact date.

Non-Sunday Dec 24 previously just inherited Advent 4's ferial collect and
antiphons with nothing of its own. Import the Vigil's real proper content
from the reference engine (Duplex I classis): its own collect, all 5 Lauds
antiphons, the Benedictus antiphon, and Matins' Gospel (Matt 1:18-21) +
St. Jerome homily, wired via a new `vigil-of-christmas` temporal id scoped
to non-Sunday Dec 24 only. Advent IV landing on Dec 24 itself is untouched,
left as its own separate design question.

Every temporal id had its Lauds (Benedictus) antiphon authored, but only
3 of 57 had the Vespers (Magnificat) counterpart -- a whole-calendar
gap exposed by 2026-08-29's Vespers rendering with no Magnificat
antiphon at all. Sourced from the reference engine's static Tempora/
Sancti files, same convention and per-id reference dates already
established for the Benedictus antiphons.
advent-4 and marian-saturday are the only two ids still missing one
(neither resolves from the static files alone) -- follow-up commit.

She was rendering as a bare collect (propers: null had no
sanctoral-commemoration fallback), and even that collect used
collect-c6's Virgin-and-Martyr text -- she was a matron, not a virgin.
Live-verified against Divino Afflatu: added collect-c7 (the Common's
own non-Virgin-Martyr template) and a full antiphon/versicle/collect
commemoration bundle.

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.

This Duplex I classis feast (instituted by Pius IX, 1847) didn't exist
anywhere in vu's calendar. Dated per the older, pre-1955 reckoning --
Wednesday after the 2nd Sunday after Easter (Easter+17) -- rather than the
1913 Pius X reform's later placement on the 3rd Sunday after Easter
itself, per direct instruction. Mechanism: one new temporal-feast record
plus a new EASTER_OFFSET_STARTS table entry (the only code change --
everything else is the existing generic anchor-driven resolution).
Authored the feast day's own Matins reading and its full 7-day octave
(days 2/3/4/6/7/8; day 5, the Sunday, has no override in the source at
all, correctly left unauthored).
Fixed one real collateral effect: an existing fixed-year calendar test
(St. Pudentiana vs. St. Peter Celestine, 2038-05-19) broke because that
date now falls on this octave's own closing day, tying Celestine's rank
against the octave's threshold -- the app's own documented tie-break
correctly favors the octave that year. Moved the proof date to 2033.
Also bumped the PWA precache file-size cap (6 MiB -> 8 MiB) since this
content pull pushed the main bundle past the previous limit.

St. Stephen, St. John the Apostle, and Holy Innocents each have an 8-day
octave overlapping Christmas week, but their intervening days (2-7) carry
no distinct Lectio content in the source -- every suffix file checked at
Dec 27-31 is a bare @Sancti/MM-DD alias, correctly left unauthored, same
pattern as the fixed-date octaves. Only each octave's own closing "In
Octava" day (Jan 2/3/4 respectively) carries real content: St. Augustine's
sermon on Stephen + St. Jerome on Matt 23:34-35; St. Augustine's Tractate
36 on John + St. John Chrysostom on John 21:20-24; St. Augustine's first
sermon for Childermas + St. John Chrysostom on Matt 2:13-18.
This closes the octave-readings backlog entirely -- every fixed-date,
movable-feast, and Christmas-week saint octave has now been audited by
calendar date against the source.

Ascension, Corpus Christi, and Sacred Heart octave content lives in the
reference engine's Tempora/ directory, keyed by liturgical offset from
Easter rather than calendar date. All three octaves' 7 non-feast days
(day 2 through the closing day) turned out to have genuine, distinct
patristic content -- unlike the fixed-date octaves, none were bare
vide-only days. 21 files authored across the three octaves.
Found and fixed one duplication along the way: each octave's own Sunday
day turned out to duplicate content already authored under a different id
in the earlier post-Pentecost temporal-cycle sweep, since a numbered
post-Pentecost Sunday and the Sunday within Corpus Christi's or Sacred
Heart's octave are structurally the same calendar day every year. Both
duplicate files (corpus-christi-octave-day-4, sacred-heart-octave-day-3)
were dropped after confirming the reading still surfaces via the existing
temporal id.

Re-auditing the two prior sanctoral bulk passes (pre-1955 Tridentine track
and SanctiM Monastic-1617 track) turned up one saint missed by both:
St. Felix I (May 30), authored the same single-lesson shape as
st-pontian.yml. This closes the saint-level side of the Matins
patristic/hagiographic reading backlog.
Separately, auditing octave-day content by calendar date (the reference
engine keys it that way, not by octave-day-number) found two real gaps in
already-partially-authored fixed-date octaves: Immaculate Conception's own
closing day (Dec 15, Pius IX bull + St. Epiphanius homily) and Nativity of
the BVM's day 3 (Sep 10, St. Jerome on Matthew's genealogy -- no usable
reference English, own translation used, draft). Every other apparent gap
in these octaves was confirmed a correctly-empty vide-only day, not a
further gap.

lauds-capitulum-st-gabriel-archangel.yml carried Apparition of St.
Michael's own capitulum ("Significávit Deus...") under Gabriel's id --
found in passing while authoring his Matins psalmody. His real
capitulum, read directly from the reference engine's Sancti/03-24.txt
([Capitulum Laudes]), is Daniel's own account of the angel's visitation
(Dan 9:21-22), genuinely proper to Gabriel, not shared with Apparition
despite sharing the same hymn. No separate vespers-capitulum file exists
for this id, so the fix covers both hours via vespersCapitulumForOverride.
Updated tests/hours/lauds.test.ts: removed Gabriel from the shared-
chapter assertion loop (Guardian Angels/Raphael still legitimately share
Apparition's chapter, confirmed via their own saint files' explicit
source cross-references) and added a dedicated test for his own chapter.

Commune/C7's own invitatory antiphon ("Laudémus Deum nostrum * In
confessióne beátæ N..") needs a per-saint genitive-singular name, unlike
every other Common invitatory antiphon currently authored. Exports
resolve-common.ts's existing substituteName helper (previously only used
by getDayCollect for collectCommon/collectName) and wires it into
resolveMatinsInvitatoryText via a new SaintRecord.invitatoryName field
-- kept separate from collectName since the two templates' {N}
placeholders don't always need the same grammatical case. Fills in real
declined names for the 3 saints using common-of-a-holy-woman (Anne,
Martha, Mary Magdalene).

resolveMatinsInvitatoryText's Common-category tier existed but only had
Common-of-an-Apostle authored, so every other Common category fell all
the way through to the plain ferial invitatory antiphon regardless of
rank (e.g. St. Joseph Calasanctius, 2026-08-27, Confessor). Adds the
Confessor family (5 duplicated ids, matching the hymn's own precedent),
Martyr family (2 ids + Several Martyrs), Virgin family (2 ids), and
Dedication — all read directly from the reference engine's own
Commune/C-number [Invit] lines. Holy Women (C7) needs a name-template
mechanism this project doesn't have yet for invitatory antiphons, and
General/All Saints (C9) turned out to be a mislabeled backlog item (C9 is
actually the Office of the Dead) — both logged in TODO.md instead.

common-of-an-abbot's own P/T/S/N antiphon files already claimed to cover
common-of-a-confessor and common-of-a-confessor-not-bishop too ("an Abbot
is himself a Confessor"), but the matching duplicate files were never
authored — so the ~36 saints using either of those two ids (bare
common-of-a-confessor is the more common of the two) got no minor-hour
antiphon at all. Adds the 8 missing files, copying the abbot file's
already-verified text, matching this category's existing duplicate-not-
alias convention (see matins-hymn-common-of-a-confessor.yml vs.
matins-hymn-common-of-a-confessor-not-bishop.yml).

Closes the last content gap flagged when Circumcision was added: its
rubric borrows Christmas Day's propers wholesale, but Christmas Day
itself has no hymn authored anywhere in vu yet. Lauds reuses the
already-verified Christmas Octave Sunday text (byte-identical in the
source); Vespers/Matins use the Monastic "Christe Redemptor omnium",
a genuinely separate hymn from the secular "Jesu, Redemptor omnium",
with a fresh draft English translation since none exists in the
reference engine for that variant.
