Adds a section-heading ResolvedPart kind and emits "Invitatory" and
"Nocturn I/II/III" headings in matins.ts, so the hour's structural
boundaries are visible instead of rendering as one undifferentiated
stream of parts. Ferial (1-nocturn) days get no Nocturn heading, matching
their existing single-unnumbered-nocturn design.

Builds every day label as a {en, la} pair (weekdays, ranks, season/ordinal
phrasing authored in Latin; proper names without an authored Latin form
fall back to their English string) and merges the date+day-label into one
header in the day-nav bar.

Keeps Simplex commemorating in place, but a Semiduplex feast on an
ordinary Sunday goes back to transferring off to the next open day —
this app's own design choice, not a correction against a reference
engine. The transfer mechanism is already generic: this file's `decideOccurrence`
only signals "couldn't hold onto this candidate" for the day itself;
calendar/index.ts's resolveDay is what independently checks each
neighboring day's own native occurrence for an incoming transfer and
claims it — no separate lookback logic needed.

At Vespers/Compline, a day's own Vigil losing tonight to tomorrow's First
Vespers was showing up as a redundant extra commemoration alongside that
same feast (e.g. Nov 29's Compline showing both "St. Andrew" and "Vigil
of St. Andrew" for Advent I's anticipated evening).
Added an explicit `vigilOf` field to each Vigil's own saint record
(several Vigil ids don't map cleanly to their feast's id by stripping a
`vigil-of-` prefix — `vigil-of-the-assumption` vs `assumption`,
`vigil-of-st-james` vs `st-james-the-greater` — so this needs to be
explicit rather than guessed from the id or date adjacency).
calendar/vespers.ts's evening-anticipation merge now skips adding the
Vigil commemoration when tomorrow's winner or its own commemorations
already include that same feast.

Two related fixes surfaced while chasing why St. Gregory Thaumaturgus
appeared to be misdated on Nov 18:
- calendar/commemorations.ts's `ordinary-sunday` case was transferring a
Semiduplex (or lower) saint off the Sunday instead of commemorating it
in place — an earlier, unverified guess. Live-verified against both
Tridentine 1906 and Divino Afflatu 1954 (St. Gregory Thaumaturgus, St.
Clement, St. Apollinaris, St. Thomas Becket, all real cases): the saint
stays and is commemorated on the Sunday itself, same as Simplex, never
pushed to the next open day. This is what was actually moving Gregory
onto Nov 18 — not a data error. `applyChristmasOctaveSunday`'s own
Dec 26-29 special case needed a matching adjustment (per its own
documented intent, the displaced saint there is deliberately *not*
commemorated in place, since he reappears in full on Dec 30 instead).
- getDayLabel had five branches, each hand-assembling its own
filter/format logic for which commemorations to show — which is why
the octave phrasing, the closing-day title, and a missing Sunday
commemoration turned into three separate bugs earlier instead of one.
Replaced with a single shared `collectCommemorations` used by every
branch. This also exposed that the sanctoral-winner branch never
showed any commemorated saint at all, and every other branch only
showed the *first* one (`.find()`), silently dropping real collisions
— both now show every commemorated saint, matching this app's own
generous-commemoration design.

Three related day-label bugs, all found via Aug 19's mislabeled Assumption
octave commemoration:
- A sanctoral winner that displaces the only active octave now shows the
octave's real "Nth Day within the Octave of X" phrasing (no rank, since
it's riding along under the winning feast), not a bare feast name.
- An octave's own closing day now titles itself "Octave of X", matching
the real DO's "in octava" vs. "infra octavam" distinction, instead of
"8th Day within the Octave of X".
- A sufficiently-ranked octave can now outrank a privileged temporal
season (e.g. the Immaculate Conception's octave outright winning several
of its days against Advent, live-verified against Divino Afflatu 1954),
via a new shared octaveGoverningPrivilegedDay helper used by both the
day label and the actual office-content resolver. Deliberately excludes
Christmastide, whose own stacked octaves are structurally already that
season's temporal content rather than a foreign add-on.
Updates a Matins test fixture that had unknowingly relied on the
Dec 15 bug (Advent ferial + a lone commemorated saint) and splits it into
a clean ferial case plus a dedicated commemorated-saint case.

Rank display (added in 1fc4bd7) only fired for a plain sanctoral
winner. Every other case -- an active octave day, a named temporal
feast, a season anchor day (Easter, Trinity Sunday, Epiphany), or the
plain ordinal Sunday/feria fallback -- showed no rank at all, which is
what made today's octave day (Aug 18, day 4 of the Assumption's
octave) show no rank. Octave days use the octave's own already-computed
effective rank; anchor days get a fixed Duplex I Class (Ash Wednesday
excepted -- a privileged feria has no duplex-scale rank); the plain
fallback derives a Semiduplex/Feria label from the day's own
temporalCategory, since Sundays/ferias aren't on the duplex scale at
all.

TemporalFeastRecord had no rank field at all, so Christmas/Pentecost/
Christ the King/Marian Saturday had nothing for the day label to show.
Christmas, Pentecost, and Christ the King are Duplex I Class (the
latter's own file comment already said so); Marian Saturday is a
Simplex-strength votive commemoration.

Live-verified against Divinum Officium's Monastic Tridentinum 1617 CGI
instance: St. Francis of Paola (2030-04-02, "vide C5") for the plain
Confessor scheme, St. Basil the Great (2035-06-14) for the Bishop
scheme. The two turned out word-for-word identical in psalm numbers
and antiphon text across all three nocturns, differing only in their
three nocturn-closing versicles -- kept as separate full files since
the mechanism has no partial-override support.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
getMatinsPsalmodyOverride is now a genuine 3-tier lookup: proper
(saints/) -> Common (categories/, joined via the winner's own
SaintRecord.common) -> the plain ferial fallback, reversing the earlier
"category files are documentation-only" decision now that two
categories are trusted. Category files gain an `aliases` field;
common-of-a-martyr.yml lists common-of-a-martyr-bishop, since the
reference engine's own Matins psalmody redirects that Common outright
to plain Martyr — so its three Duplex+ saints (Ignatius, Callistus,
Boniface, none with proper text of his own) get real Common-tier
content with no new authoring.
tests/hours/matins.test.ts's old ferial-fallback proof (St. Ignatius)
is rewritten as a Common-tier proof; a fresh ferial-fallback proof
(St. John Bosco, an unauthored Confessor category) replaces it.

Two categories live-verified: common-of-a-martyr (from St. Ignatius of
Antioch, whose own office is entirely Common — also confirms
Common-of-a-Martyr-Bishop redirects to this same scheme, and that none
of its 3 Duplex+ saints has a proper antiphon of his own) and
common-of-an-apostle (from St. Bartholomew). St. Andrew authored as the
second saint-level proof, sharing the apostle category's psalm numbers
in every slot with his own proper antiphon text.

cross-reference; resolution behavior (per-saint lookup, ferial

matins.ts's three-nocturn gate correctly governed nocturn count
(Sunday, or Duplex+) but wrongly reused the literal Sunday psalmody as
content for every three-nocturn day, including a weekday feast. Live-
verified (Monastic Tridentinum 1617) that a Duplex+ weekday feast has
its own genuinely different psalmody -- confirmed per-Common-category,
not per-saint, by cross-checking St. Lawrence against St. Ignatius of
Antioch (a different Martyr sub-category, nearly identical psalm
numbers, different antiphons).
New mechanism (matins-psalmody-overrides.ts, mirroring the Lauds one
but keyed per-category) with St. Lawrence authored as the live-verified
proof; falls back to the plain ferial weekday table, redistributed into
3 nocturns, for every other Duplex+ id until its own category's content
is authored. Also generalizes the canticle shape to support a citation
spanning multiple scripture chapters under one heading (Lawrence's own
Nocturn 3), and adds the new Sirach/Jeremiah chapters his canticles cite.
A tie between an occurring saint's rank and an active octave now favors
the octave only on its own elevated closing day (live-verified: St.
Hyacinth vs. St. Lawrence's own Aug 17 closing day), not on an ordinary
octave day, where a tied saint still wins as before -- confirmed against
two already-tested counterexamples (St. Thomas of Canterbury, St.
Nicholas of Tolentino) that a blanket tie-flip would have broken.
getDayLabel previously dropped every commemoration whenever the day's
winner was a plain saint, and dropped every non-headline active octave
even when an octave itself won -- both fixed. Rank is now shown after
the day's own winner's name (previously not shown anywhere in the UI).
Also authored assumption-octave-day-3.yml, a real content gap (Aug 17,
day 3 of her octave) surfaced while fixing the above.
getDayCollects previously dropped kind: 'octave' commemorations
entirely, so on days where the temporal office keeps its own standing
(the Christmas Octave's own Nativity/Stephen/John/Holy-Innocents stack,
e.g. Dec 30) those octaves contributed nothing but a name in the day
label. Add an octave branch, gated on temporalCategory !== 'ordinary-
feria' -- the same condition resolveOfficeWinner uses -- so an ordinary
octave day's already-substituted primary content never gets a redundant
repeat.
Ant+V/R+collect "Commemoratio Octavæ" blocks for Christmas, St. Stephen,
St. John, and Holy Innocents, sourced from the reference engine's Sancti/
12-25..28.txt Octava 3 sections -- content for the mechanism change in
the next commit.
Own real Oratio and Nocturn 2-3 content (Duplex majus). This was the
only real gap left in December -- the rest of the month was already
complete from the earlier pre-1955 sanctoral pull. No test collisions:
Dec 3 was genuinely open.
This closes out the full-year sanctoral sweep (January-December).

St. Charles Borromeo (11-04), the Octave Day of All Saints (11-08,
own real Cyprian/Augustine Nocturn 2-3 content, collect reused from
All Saints via cross-id propers), St. Albert the Great (11-15),
St. Gertrude (11-16), St. Felix of Valois (11-20). All Souls' Day
(11-02) deliberately skipped -- a Requiem office, not a normal
saint's office, a genuine mechanism gap.
Several new fixed-date Duplex+ saints displaced existing test
fixtures that had assumed particular dates were clean/ferial/
plain-Sunday: prime.test.ts's MONDAY constant, weekday.test.ts's
clean-Sunday case, and day-label.test.ts's post-Epiphany-overflow
and open-octave-day cases. Fixed by finding genuinely clean
alternate dates/years, never by weakening assertions.

Continues the full-year sanctoral import: the Guardian Angels (Duplex
majus, full proper content), St. Thérèse of Lisieux, St. Bruno, St.
Bridget of Sweden, St. Francis Borgia, the Maternity of the BVM (Duplex
II Classis, instituted 1931 for the 1500th anniversary of the Council
of Ephesus, full proper content), St. Edward the Confessor, St. Teresa
of Avila (distinct from St. Thérèse of Lisieux -- two different
Carmelite saints sharing a name), St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, St. Peter
of Alcantara, St. John Cantius, and St. Raphael the Archangel (own
full proper content, matching st-gabriel-archangel.yml's established
pattern for a Sancti file that redirects wholesale to another date's
file but still carries its own real content).
St. Raphael's new fixed day (Oct 24, Duplex majus) collided with the
"clean, empty Saturday" fixture used by three tests for Marian
Saturday/Lauds-psalmody-override behavior; moved all three to 2026-07-04,
verified genuinely free of any sanctoral entry (not even a commemorated
Simplex).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Continues the full-year sanctoral import: St. Stephen of Hungary, St.
Pius X, St. Lawrence Justinian, Ss. Protus and Hyacinth, the Holy Name
of Mary, the Seven Sorrows of the BVM (Duplex II Classis, own full
proper content except Nocturn 2, a real cross-reference to Passion
Friday's own temporal content), the Impression of the Stigmata of St.
Francis, St. Joseph of Cupertino, Our Lady of Ransom, and St.
Wenceslaus.
Ss. Protus and Hyacinth (Sep 11) were previously excluded under a
stale "real secondary saint blocked by the Nativity's own octave, same
as St. Clare in August" note -- wrong, same class of error already
corrected for St. Tiburtius/Susanna in August: the octave-window
exclusion was never a real rule. Sep 15 (day 8 of the Nativity's own
octave) is now also the Seven Sorrows' own fixed day (Duplex II
Classis), which wins outright with the octave still commemorated
alongside her -- updated september-sanctoral.test.ts's own "excluded
secondary saints" case accordingly, splitting it into the still-valid
Sep 9 (Gorgonius) half and a new Sep 15 case reflecting the real
winner.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Continues the full-year sanctoral import: Ss. Tiburtius and Susanna, Ss.
Hippolytus and Cassian, the Vigil of the Assumption, St. Joachim (Duplex
II Classis, own full proper content), St. Hyacinth, St. John Eudes, St.
Jane Frances de Chantal, the Immaculate Heart of the BVM (Duplex II
Classis, instituted 1942, full proper content), St. Joseph Calasanctius,
and St. Raymond Nonnatus.
Several of the new fixed dates (Aug 16, 17, 21, 22) fall within or
adjacent to St. Lawrence's and the Assumption's overlapping octave
windows and now win outright there under the ordinary-feria/ordinary-
sunday precedence rules, displacing what several existing tests
expected to be bare octave commemorations or ferial fallbacks. Updated:
- august-sanctoral.test.ts: Aug 22 now correctly shows the Immaculate
Heart of Mary as the winner, with the Assumption's octave still
commemorated alongside her.
- day-label.test.ts: the two octave-priority tests pinned to Aug 17
(now St. Hyacinth's own day) moved their "day 8 alone" case to All
Saints' own octave (Nov 8, still open); the two-octaves-overlap
comparison can no longer be demonstrated via any real date in this
app since every day where St. Lawrence's and the Assumption's octaves
genuinely overlap is now real sanctoral content -- the underlying
`pickWinningOctave` mechanism itself stays covered by
tests/calendar/octaves.test.ts's own synthetic-data unit test.
- vespers.test.ts: the Thursday Ps 138 split test moved off Aug 20,
whose own first Vespers is now claimed by St. Jane Frances de
Chantal's fixed day (Aug 21).

Continues the full-year sanctoral import: the Most Precious Blood of Our
Lord (Duplex I Classis, full proper office, elevated by Pius XI for the
1933 Redemption jubilee), the Visitation of the BVM (Duplex II Classis,
full proper office), St. Leo II, St. Anthony Mary Zaccaria, the Octave
Day of Ss. Peter and Paul (own real content, not a bare continuation),
Ss. Cyril and Methodius, St. Elizabeth of Portugal, St. Henry, Our Lady
of Mount Carmel, St. Vincent de Paul, and St. Ignatius of Loyola.
Also fixes a real pre-existing bug surfaced while authoring St. Leo II:
an earlier June sanctoral pull had mapped him to "06-28" (his own vita
text mentions his burial "upon the 28th day of June," but his actual
liturgical feast, per the reference engine's Sancti/07-03.txt, is July
3) with no saints/st-leo-ii.yml ever authored for it -- a wrong-date
stub, same class of artifact as the pre-existing St. Apollinaris
wrong-date bug already documented in july-sanctoral.test.ts. Removed
the stale June 28 entry now that he's correctly authored on July 3.
Two day-label tests pinned to Trinity-Sunday-relative dates that now
collide with new fixed feasts (Jul 6: Octave Day of Ss. Peter and Paul)
were moved to collision-free years/dates, and the July stub test
covering "pure octave-continuation days" was updated to a date (July 4)
that's still genuinely unmapped, since most of that range turned out to
have real content after all.

St. Norbert, St. Margaret of Scotland, and St. Aloysius Gonzaga.
Two of the new fixed dates (June 1, June 4) fall on dates used by two
day-label tests pinned to specific Trinity Sunday years; moved those to
years/dates free of the new entries, with explanatory comments.

Continues the full-year sanctoral import (see TODO.md/memory for Jan-Apr):
St. Pius V, St. Antoninus, St. Robert Bellarmine, St. John Baptist de la
Salle, St. Paschal Baylon, St. Venantius, St. Bernardine of Siena, St. John
Baptist de Rossi, St. Augustine of Canterbury, St. Mary Magdalene de Pazzi,
and the Queenship of the BVM (May 31, Duplex II Classis, instituted by Pius
XII's 1954 "Ad cæli Reginam" — full proper content, not a Common fallback).
Adding the Queenship to May 31 surfaces a real collision with Trinity
Sunday in years where Trinity falls on May 31 (2026): since this app
models Trinitytide Sundays as plain ordinary-sunday with no special
first-class standing, a Duplex+ sanctoral feast wins outright there per
the existing precedence rule. Updated the two tests pinned to that date
accordingly, with a third moved to a Trinity Sunday date (2023-06-04)
free of any sanctoral entry to keep testing the octave-vs-anchor-day
interaction in isolation.

St. John Damascene is the first common-of-a-confessor-doctor saint;
his own Commune/C5a points its own Benedictus antiphon back at C4a's,

the Most Holy Savior (Nov 9, the Lateran) were all excluded under the
same stale "fixed feast of the Lord, not modeled" note that turned out
wrong for Our Lady of the Snows. All four have real, complete content in

under the equivalent "fixed BVM feast" note and is added the same way.
- finding-of-the-holy-cross: fully proprium, own collect/antiphon/Matins

ss-alexander-eventius-theodulus-and-juvenal, matching what that
saint's own file already documented as the live reality.
- transfiguration: same proprium shape. Its subordinate saints (Ss.
Xystus/Felicissimus/Agapitus) stay excluded -- blocked by the real,
separate octave/subordination-rendering gap, not by an unmodeled
Transfiguration.
- exaltation-of-the-holy-cross: reuses the Finding of the Holy Cross's
content wholesale (ex Sancti/05-03) -- collect/antiphon via a cross-id
`propers` pointer, Matins nocturn-readings duplicated (no cross-id
lookup exists for that mechanism).
- dedication-of-the-basilica-of-the-most-holy-savior: reuses the
existing Common-of-a-Dedication (collect-c8, benedictus-antiphon-
common-of-a-dedication), real unique Nocturn 2 vita of her own. Her
secondary, St. Theodore, stays excluded for the same
octave/subordination reason as above.

Benedictus antiphon is a substituted Common reference
(truncate-and-add-alleluia edit specific to this feast), authored as
her own file.
Also: our-lady-of-the-snows.yml was missing its own Nocturn 3 (she

Previously excluded entirely under a stale "fixed BVM feasts aren't
modeled" note -- wrong: this app already models three other fixed BVM
feasts (assumption, immaculate-conception, nativity-bvm), and this one
has real, complete content too. Sancti/08-05.txt's untagged rank block
gives her Duplex Majus with real Nocturn 2/3 content (the
miraculous-snowfall founding legend of St. Mary Major); SanctiM/08-05.txt

Lectio4-6.
Unlike the other three BVM feasts, she has no proper collect or

commemoration); updated matins.test.ts accordingly — the "commemorations
get their own reading" design working as intended, not a regression.

14 of November's 16 SanctiM-track saints authored, including All
Saints of the Benedictine Order -- a genuinely Monastic-only feast
with both rich content and (unusually for this pass) an available
English translation. St. Martin I is another off-date case like St.
Paul the Hermit, and two more saints (St. Emilian, St. Odo) turn out
Monastic-only-but-Common-only, extending October's wrinkle.
9 of October's 13 SanctiM-track saints authored. Found a new wrinkle:
St. Justina and St. Gall are genuinely Monastic-only (no Tridentine
file at all) but their own SanctiM files turn out to be Common-only
with no proper Lectio content -- being Monastic-only doesn't guarantee
real text to transcribe.
All 9 of September's SanctiM-track saints authored -- the first full
month in this pass with nothing left unsourced. Includes the
Dedication of St. Michael the Archangel, whose SanctiM file borrows
structure from his separate May 8 Apparition file but still resolves
its actual readings back to this day's own Tridentine content.
13 of August's 16 SanctiM-track saints authored, including the Duplex
I class feasts of St. Lawrence and the Assumption of the B.V.M. The
Assumption's presence confirms this app's calendar already maps fixed
BVM feasts, despite an older note in the parent workspace CLAUDE.md
suggesting otherwise -- flagged in memory as stale documentation to
verify against, not trust blindly. 3 saints left unsourced (Common-only
or Nocturn-1-only vigil content).
13 of July's 18 SanctiM-track saints authored (5 left unsourced,
Common-only). Discovered the Monastic calendar keeps a full Octave of
St. Benedict (Jul 11-18), which explains several dates' SanctiM files
not matching their expected saint. Also hit a translation-misalignment
bug on St. Bonaventure's English source (paragraph boundaries don't
line up with the Latin), worked around with an original translation.
12 of June's 13 SanctiM-track saints authored, including the major
Duplex I class feast of Ss. Peter and Paul. One left unsourced (the
Vigil of St. John the Baptist has only a Nocturn 1 scripture reading
in the source, nothing proper to author for Nocturn 2/3). Found a new
wrinkle: St. William Abbot has real vita content in both tracks,
essentially the same story independently transcribed — sourced from
the Tridentine file since only it has an English translation.
12 of May's 13 SanctiM-track saints authored (1 left unsourced,
Common-only). Resolves an old loose end from the pre-1955 pass: St.
Romanus Abbot does have a real SanctiM file after all, it's just
Common-only with no proper Lectio content, which looked like a missing
file until actually opened. Also the first isGospel:true case since
January (Ss. Philip and James's Nocturn 3 has a full Gospel pericope,
not a bare incipit).
All 9 of April's SanctiM-track saints authored. Found a new wrinkle:
St. Catherine of Siena and St. Peter Martyr sit on swapped dates
between this app's calendar and the general Tridentine one (Apr 29/30
each way), not just an off-by-a-few-days shift like earlier cases.
Also hit a reference-engine data bug on St. George (English prose
filed under a Latin heading) and another genuinely Monastic-only saint
(St. Robert of Molesme) needing an original translation.
All 6 of March's SanctiM-track saints authored. St. Benedict's own
patronal feast turns out to be the richest case in this pass so far:
its Nocturn 3 is genuinely Monastic-only content (a St. Peter Damian
sermon) absent from the Tridentine track entirely, unlike every other
saint done so far where the SanctiM file just reslices the same
Tridentine text. Also caught a case (St. Gregory the Great) where a
saint's SanctiM file carries content copied verbatim from an unrelated
feast rather than anything proper to the saint himself.
8 of February's 10 SanctiM-track saints authored (2 left unsourced —
Common-only, no proper text in the source). Two more turned out to be
missed pre-1955-pool candidates rather than genuine SanctiM cases
(their date's SanctiM file belongs to a different saint sharing the
date). Also settles a convention for bare Gospel incipits followed by
a real homily: author the homily alone as isGospel:false rather than
including the incipit line under isGospel:true.
Starts the bulk-content pass complementary to the pre-1955 saints pass:
11 of January's 13 SanctiM-track saints authored (2 left unsourced —
their Nocturn 2/3 content is entirely octave homiletic material, no
proper vita text in either track). Most SanctiM files turn out to be
thin rule overrides pointing back at the same Sancti/ text; only
St. Maurus (Monastic-only, no Sancti file) needed direct SanctiM
sourcing, with an original translation for its missing English source.
Ss. Tryphon and Companions, St. Gregory Thaumaturgus, St. Catherine of
Alexandria, and the Vigil of St. Andrew. This completes the
pre-1955-but-post-1617 sanctoral pass: 43 saints authored across the
year, 9 confirmed Common-only with nothing to source (see TODO.md).

St. Giles, St. Nicholas of Tolentino, Ss. Cornelius and Cyprian, Ss.
Euphemia/Lucy/Geminian, St. Januarius, the Vigil of St. Matthew, and
Ss. Cyprian and Justina.
