The rest-of-year temporal nocturn-readings sweep was testing the Monday
after each named Sunday, relying on the now-removed leak to prove content
reachability for dates with no separately-authored ferial content -
repointed to the actual Sunday date. Updated the 2026-08-24 suppression
test's ferial case to assert the leak no longer happens, and added a
regression test pinning the original 2026-09-01 bug report.

Extends tests/hours/matins.test.ts's proof-date table to cover all 28
newly-authored temporal ids end-to-end, including Easter and Pentecost
Sunday. Documents the full sweep in TODO.md, including the
easter-sunday/pentecost-sunday misdiagnosis and correction so the
"1 nocturn in the source" vs. "no content" distinction doesn't get
re-litigated later.

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.

Replaces the lesson+isGospel flag with a dedicated 'gospel' ResolvedPart
carrying an optional nested homily. Previously a Gospel pericope and its
patristic homily were two separate pool entries, which the front-light
1/1/rest nocturn slicer could split into different nocturns purely by
index. buildReadingPool now folds an isGospel:true reading and its
immediately-following same-nocturn homily into a single pool entry, so
the pairing is structural rather than a convention the slicer has to
honor. hour-view.ts renders the pair as one visually grouped section.

St. Maurus/St. Gall (Abbot), St. Francis of Assisi/St. Jerome
(Confessor-not-Bishop), and the Octave of Ss. Peter and Paul

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.

Nocturn count stays rank-based (readings only), but psalm content for an
exactly-Duplex sanctoral winner with no proper now always uses that
weekday's real ferial psalms instead of Common's own psalm numbers (or a
bare mechanical chunk) — so the psalter actually gets prayed rather than
repeating the same dozen Common psalms. Each nocturn's antiphon comes from
the saint's own minorHoursCommon Terce/Sext/None text (real, distinct per
nocturn, already proven non-psalm-specific), with Common's own Matins
versicle per nocturn; falls back to bare only where that content isn't
authored. Duplex-majus+ winners are unaffected.

resolveMatinsHymn (hours/matins.ts) is a separate mechanism from
resolveOfficeBundle, with its own fallback chain (proper -> active
octave -> Common via SaintRecord.common -> season -> ferial). Only the
Confessor family and Apostle had a matins-hymn-<id>.yml before this
pass; everything else fell through to season/ferial at Matins
specifically, even after the Lauds/Vespers fixes.
Live-verified and authored: common-of-several-martyrs ("Ætérna Christi
múnera, Et Mártyrum victórias"), common-of-an-abbot and
common-of-several-confessors (= Confessor-Not-Bishop's hymn, same label
finding as Lauds/Vespers), common-of-a-virgin-martyr/-virgin ("Vírginis
Proles"), common-of-a-holy-woman/-widow (a genuinely shorter closing-two-
stanzas form, "Hujus obténtu, Deus alme"), Guardian Angels/St.
Michael/St. Gabriel/St. Raphael (reused from St. Michael's Apparition,
confirmed via SanctiM/05-08.txt's own cross-reference), common-of-the-
bvm ("Quem terra, pontus, ǽthera"), Finding/Exaltation of the Holy Cross
("Pange, lingua, gloriósi," the Nativity-themed other half of the same
poem as Lauds' own hymn), and the Transfiguration (byte-identical to its
own Vespers hymn).

Live-verified against Ss. Fabian and Sebastian's clean date (2029-01-20,
Monastic Tridentinum 1617). Genuinely distinct psalm scheme from
common-of-a-martyr (single martyr), not a duplicate. Adds Wisdom 3:1-6
to the scripture store for Nocturn 3's canticles. Swaps the matins.test.ts
ferial-fallback proof to St. Anthony Abbot now that Fabian/Sebastian
resolve through this new category instead.

resolveMatinsHymn gained a Common-category tier (override -> octave ->
Common category -> season -> ferial), reusing matins-psalmody-
overrides.ts's own getSaintRecord(id)?.common lookup pattern. The
invitatory antiphon (invitatoryParts), previously one hardcoded fixed
text for every day of the year with only full-vs-incipit doubling
varying by rank, now goes through a real resolveMatinsInvitatoryText
(override -> Common category -> season -> ferial, no octave tier) before
the doubling step.
Content authored this pass: Common-of-an-Apostle only, both hymn
(matins-hymn-common-of-an-apostle.yml, "Aeterna Christi munera") and
invitatory antiphon (matins-invitatory-common-of-an-apostle.yml, "Regem
Apostolorum Dominum"), both read directly from the reference engine's
Commune/C1.txt. Live-verified: St. Bartholomew (2026-08-24) and St.
Andrew (2026-11-30) both now resolve to this Common's text.

nocturnReadingIds unconditionally pooled the plain temporal-cycle and
month-week reading ids into every day's nocturn-reading pool, even when
a real feast wins the day outright with zero commemorations
(decideOccurrence's `ordinary-feria` branch, which correctly suppresses
the temporal identity entirely). St. Bartholomew (duplex-2-classis,
2026-08-24, a Monday) has no Nocturn 3 content of his own, so the
leftover 13th-Sunday-after-Pentecost and month-week readings wrongly
filled his Nocturn 3.
Gate the pooling on whether the day's own occurrence decision actually
retained the temporal identity (day.winner.kind === 'temporal', or a
`temporal`-kind entry in day.commemorations) — mirrors getDayCollects's
existing pattern for the same question.

Matins now sings "Te decet laus" (Psalterium/Common/Prayers.txt's [Te
decet]) immediately after the Te Deum on every 3-nocturn day, matching
Rule of Benedict ch. 11's close of Vigils. New common text
te-decet-laus.yml, wired into both matins.ts branches that render a Te
Deum; absent on ferial days along with it.
Also drops Psalm 129 (De profundis) from the Lauds ferial Preces and
Psalm 50 (Miserere) from the Vespers ferial Preces, per direct
instruction — both were embedded inline in the live-transcribed text.
Updated the affected fixture tests to key off a versicle that survives
the removal instead of the now-absent psalm text.

The later post-Pentecost Sundays' real Nocturn 2 patristic content isn't
keyed by Pentecost offset in the reference engine — it's keyed by civil
calendar month/week (the old "Scriptura occurrens" cycle), which shifts
relative to post-pentecost-NN every year depending on Easter's date. Port
Date.pm's monthday() algorithm (pre-1955/Tridentine rubrics) as a new,
date-driven id, author all 20 August-November month-week files from the
reference engine's Tempora/0MN-0.txt sources, and pool them in
hours/matins.ts as a third, independent reading source alongside the
existing temporalId lookup.

Closes the gap the user found on 2026-08-23 (post-pentecost-13's Matins had
no patristic reading): nocturn-readings/ had content for only one temporal
id (post-pentecost-15, the original mechanism proof date). Since
resolveTemporalId maps every day in a liturgical week to the same id, one
file per id covers the whole week — authored all 23 remaining
post-pentecost-NN ids (01-14, 16-24) from the reference engine's own
Tempora/PentNN-0.txt files. Trinity Sunday (01) keeps its own full proper
office including a displaced-Sunday commemoration; 02-11 have real Nocturn
2+3 content; 12 onward are Nocturn-3-only (homily, Gospel incipit skipped
per convention), reusing the same two responsories the source itself
cross-references week to week.
Rest of the temporal cycle (Advent/Christmas/Epiphany/Septuagesima/Lent/
Easter) is a separate follow-up pass, tracked in TODO.md.

resolveMatinsHymn's own doc comment already claimed the octave "keeps
the feast's own proper hymn all week," but the code never implemented
it -- it only matched when the day's own winner literally was
`assumption` (Aug 15 itself). Every other octave day (16, 17, 19, 20,
21, none of whom has a Matins hymn of their own authored) fell straight
through to the plain ferial hymn instead.
Adds a real octave-fallback tier between the existing per-feast override
and the seasonal tier. A deliberate departure from the reference engine,
which doesn't do this either (Monastic 1617's octave days have no
[Hymnus Matutinum] override at all) -- consistent with how this project
already treats octave readings/commemorations more generously than any
one source track.

sundayPsalmNocturn/sundayCanticleNocturn only ever rendered a
versicle's V. line, silently missing the responsory for Sunday Matins
and every Duplex+ weekday feast using matins-psalmody-overrides. Both
now share the versicleText helper introduced for the ferial nocturn
antiphons, which combines V./R. into one block.
Every non-Sunday, non-Duplex+ Matins nocturn rendered bare psalms with
no antiphon at all. Sourced each psalm's antiphon from Divinum
Officium's Monastic Matins psalter and regrouped to fit
psalter-distribution.yml's own already-established (and non-historical)
weekday psalm redistribution, since the source's own per-weekday
antiphon pairings don't survive that reslice intact.
Tenebrae's rubric replaces Matins' usual opening with a silently-said
Pater/Ave/Credo, live-verified against both Monastic Tridentinum 1617
and Divino Afflatu 1954 (Holy Thursday: Invitatorium and Hymnus both
"omittitur", no Ps 3 or versicle either). Since this app already never
renders that silent block on ordinary days either (data/hours/prime.yml),
the fix is a pure omission straight into Nocturn 1, using the same
isInTriduum window added for the Gloria Patri work.
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.

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.

Two new Common-tier proofs (Francis of Paola, Basil the Great) confirm
the resolver picks up both new categories with verified antiphon text.
The old ferial-fallback proof (St. John Bosco, Common of a Confessor)
is now superseded since that category is authored -- swapped for Ss.
Fabian and Sebastian (Common of Several Martyrs, still unauthored).

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.

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.
13 of December's 15 SanctiM-track saints authored (st-bibiana, st-nicholas,
st-ambrose, immaculate-conception, st-damasus, st-lucy, st-thomas-apostle,
st-stephen-protomartyr, st-john-apostle, holy-innocents, st-thomas-becket,
st-silvester-i, st-eusebius-of-vercelli); st-barbara and st-melchiades left
unauthored as Common-only. This is the twelfth and final month of the
SanctiM (Monastic 1617)-track saints' Matins readings pass — 129 saints
authored across the whole year.
Adding St. Eusebius of Vercelli's content surfaces a 3rd Matins lesson on
the existing Advent III Tuesday proof date (Dec 15 falls under his
commemoration); updated matins.test.ts accordingly — the "commemorations
get their own reading" design working as intended, not a regression.
