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.

tests/hours/matins.test.ts covers both branches (ferial, Sunday)
end-to-end through the real resolveOrdo mechanism against two clean,
live-verified dates — psalm/canticle counts, Te Deum presence, reading
citations/statuses, Gospel flagging and its Common-fallback exclusion,
and responsory matching.
tests/hours/prime.test.ts and tests/ui/shell.test.ts both had assertions
that Matins was still pending — replaced with assertions that it now
renders real content, mirroring the equivalent Compline test.
