User-directed: compose Ruth's own responsory from Ruth 1:16-17 ("thy
people shall be my people, and thy God my God") on the verse's own
merit. Unlike deut/rom/bar, this text has no liturgical precedent
anywhere in the reference source (no Nuptial Mass file even exists
there) -- flagged that distinction before proceeding; user confirmed
explicitly.
Since data/scripture/ruth-1.yml (the usual bulk import) carries no
accents, the Latin was hand-accented rather than transcribed, but
cross-checked word-by-word against already-accented occurrences of
the same words elsewhere in the corpus rather than guessed freehand.

Vulgate "Esdras" numbering is genuinely ambiguous: 1/2 Esdras is
canonical Ezra/Nehemiah, but there's also a separate non-canonical
Greek "Esdras A" (the Vulgate appendix's own 3 Esdras, sometimes
itself called "1 Esdras" in Septuagint/Orthodox numbering) -- a
different text this project has never digitized. The reference
engine's own citation never disambiguates, so this can't be
confirmed, but it cleanly explains why the Pasc7-2.txt Introit's
"Esdr 2:36-37" citation doesn't match our canonical Ezra text.
Practical outcome unchanged (ezra stays unseeded), now documented
with a clear reason rather than an open mystery.

User pointed to missa/Latin/Tempora/Quad6-6.txt -- the Mass propers, a
directory tree this whole responsory search had never once checked
(everything so far searched horas/, the Divine Office proper). The
Easter Vigil Mass's own fourth prophecy ([Proph_Baruch3], Bar 3:9-38,
"Audi, Israel, mandata vitae") is genuine, real, accented liturgical
Latin -- just never part of Matins at all.
Composed bar the same way as deut/rom: built from that prophecy's own
climactic close ("Hic est Deus noster... Post haec in terris visus
est, et cum hominibus conversatus est" -- read at the Vigil because
early exegetes saw "seen upon earth, and conversed with men" as a
prophecy of the Incarnation).
Extended the Missa check to the other 6 already-absent books too --
genuinely zero citations anywhere. Ezra turned up one thin, ambiguous
Missa Introit citation that doesn't match its own cited verse; left
unseeded rather than force it.

own genuine verses (Latin/Psalterium/Psalmorum/Psalm226.txt, sung at
Lauds), verified against data/scripture/deut-32.yml to confirm the
citation is standard verse 11 and not the breviary's own internal

Advent's own reading plan (advent-1-sunday through advent-4-saturday,
28 rows for a full 4-week Advent) is always longer than real Advent
runs. Advent's last real day is always Dec 23 (Dec 24 is the Vigil of
Christmas's own temporal id), while Advent 1 Sunday lands anywhere
from Nov 27 to Dec 3 -- even the longest possible Advent is one row
short of the full plan, and the shortest is a whole week short. Every
year, at least the plan's last row never reaches its own natural date.
Added adventCarryoverReadings to propers/bible-plan.ts: whatever
doesn't land on its own natural date now carries forward one reading
per day starting Christmas Day, pooled alongside whatever
Christmastide's own calendar-dated rows already have -- never
replacing them. This is the one place in bible-plan.ts that needs
real calendar-year awareness (calendar/temporal.ts's adventStart).

User pushback on Canticles being "confirmed absent" -- right instinct
to check the Commune files, which redirected productively: the same
Lectio-citation survey run against Sancti (individual saint/feast
files) rather than just Tempora found real, genuine content:
- cant: the Visitation (July 2) reads straight through the Song of
Songs, blending it with the Visitation narrative itself.
- lev: the Purification of the BVM's own Leviticus purification-law
reading is the feast's actual reason for being.
- num: the Exaltation of the Holy Cross's bronze-serpent/Cross
typology (Num 21:6-9).

Asked to translate the 15 remaining "real Latin, no English" books.
None needed translation: the whole post-Epiphany reading season
(Galatians/Ephesians/Philippians/Colossians/1-2 Timothy/Titus/
Philemon/2 Thessalonians) turns out to have no distinct responsory
content of its own -- every feria file references 2 Corinthians' own
week (already bilingual) by weekday position. Same for 2 Peter/2-3
John/Jude, which reference Ascension Day's own responsories (act).
Only Romans genuinely has nothing: every citing file borrows an
unrelated feast's own proper responsory (Circumcision, Christmas Day,
a January saint), never anything Romans-specific. Left unseeded --
using one would repeat the Sacred Heart/Jeremiah mismatch this pool
already avoids elsewhere.
59 of 72 books now seeded -- every book with any usable Latin content

(bypassing the normalization the real call site always applies).

bible-plan.ts's *.yml import uses English-style book abbreviations
("jdt", "1kgs", "luke", ...) for ~30 books where that diverges from
this store's canonical form ("jdth", "3reg", "luc", ...).
scripture/index.ts's own BOOK_ALIASES already normalized this for
verse-text lookup, but the incipit (bible-book-incipits.ts) and
responsory (matins-responsories.ts) lookups used the raw abbreviation
directly, silently missing on any canonically-keyed book and falling
back to a bare "Reading" heading. The 3 Gospel aliases self-healed via
a separate citation-regex fallback that only exists for Gospels; every
other aliased book (Judith, Kings, Samuel, Esdras, Osee, Jonas, Josue,
Micheas, Abdias, Judges, the Johannine epistles, James, Jude, Philemon,
Titus, Zacharias, Sophonias) had no such fallback. Exports
canonicalBook from scripture/index.ts and routes both lookups through
it -- one shared normalization instead of two independently-aliased
ones that can drift again.

calendar/day-label.ts never surfaced an Ember day's own identity

the winning-outright fallback used the generic ordinal weekday label

deliberately kept out of temporal-feasts.ts since that table doubles

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

33 chapters from the first-pass "Unbound Bible" import each had one lone
missing English verse (matt-12:43's in-file "Transfer interrupted!"
download-corruption artifact among them). Rather than assume these were
genuine source gaps, checked every one against drbo.org's per-verse
text: 33 of 34 turned out to be real, present verses the old scrape had
simply dropped, now filled in.
The remaining 10 are confirmed genuine: drbo.org's own Douay-Rheims
numbering for these chapters stops one verse short of the Vulgate's own
count too (checked each chapter's actual max verse number there) -- a
real versification difference, not a scrape artifact, so these stay

The "Unbound Bible" source used for the previous pass had real defects
in 12 chapters (Douay-Rheims verses shifted/merged under the wrong
number, e.g. "Isaias 25:1" actually holding 25:11's text) and was
missing Daniel 4-14/Esther 11-16 outright.
Found a better source: drbo.org's combined "DR + LV" page per chapter
keeps each verse's Latin and English in the same HTML block, making
the earlier misalignment structurally impossible. Fetched and parsed
all 28 real chapters from it (bar-2; isa-5/25; joan-15; rom-9/11;
sir-10/19/23/41/51; dan-4..14; esth-11..16), spot-checked several
against known-correct text, and confirmed sir-52 isn't a real chapter
at all (Sirach only has 51 -- the old source's "52" was bogus).
Store now at 1185 chapter files with zero remaining gaps against every
book/chapter citation the app actually uses. Repoints

Found 137 chapters missing from src/data/scripture/ despite the recent
bulk import, scattered oddly across ~30 otherwise-covered books. Located
the original "Unbound Bible" source archives (douay_rheims.zip/latinv.zip)
the earlier import must have used but never preserved in-repo, and
re-parsed directly from them.
118 new chapters authored, plus the 3 hand-authored short books (Jude,
Obadiah, Philemon) replaced with source-derived text — small wording
differences from the hand-typed drafts confirm going back to source was
worth it. Store now at 1157 chapter files.
Deliberately left unauthored rather than risk bad content:
- Daniel 4-14 and Esther 11-16: this digitization's Latin side only has
Daniel 1-3 and Esther 1-10 at all (English has the rest).
- 12 chapters where the Douay-Rheims side has a corrupted, misnumbered
block (e.g. isa-25's tagged verse 1 actually carries verse 11's text)
rather than simply missing content -- importing under the source's own
wrong verse numbers would silently attach mismatched text to real
citations, worse than leaving them missing.
Widened bulk-import.test.ts's invariant to tolerate up to 2 genuinely
isolated missing-English verses per chapter (extends the pre-existing
isa-33/sir-36 pointing-split-half-verse allowance to also cover true
source gaps, e.g. an in-file "Transfer interrupted!" download-corruption
artifact at matt-12:43), while still failing loudly on anything
resembling the corrupted-block pattern above.

(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.

Semiduplex and Duplex should share the same 3-nocturn/3-psalms-each
shape (distinct from Sunday/Duplex-majus+'s 6/6/3-plus-canticles
scheme) — the previous Duplex floor meant a Semiduplex winner like
St. Stephen of Hungary wrongly fell all the way through to the
1-nocturn ferial branch.
New threshold is a separate check from isDoubleOrHigher, which drives
the unrelated antiphon-doubling rule elsewhere and stays floored at
Duplex — the two thresholds only coincided by accident before this
change. No new content authoring was needed: ferialPsalmodyThreeNocturns
already chunks the ferial 9-psalm pool into 3/3/3 as the fallback for
a plain-Duplex winner with no override authored, and Semiduplex
winners now route into that same already-working branch.

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
versicle field was a documented-but-unverified assumption, not real
content.

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.

The Easter octave cascade built last commit reused the existing
"duplex-majus+ still gets a bare commemoration" branch unchanged,
trusting its own citation (St. Mark within the Easter Octave). That
citation was a misreading. Live-verified: the Annunciation (Duplex I.
classis) transfers with zero commemoration on Holy Thursday itself, and
Chair of St. Peter at Antioch does the same on Ash Wednesday - the
exception was wrong everywhere this category is used, not just Holy
Week. privileged-feria-major now matches privileged-sunday exactly:
unconditional transfer, no exceptions, any rank.

Closes the tabled "Easter's own octave" mechanism gap. resolveDay only
ever checked yesterday/tomorrow for an inbound transfer - a single hop -
so anything impeded in Holy Week just vanished rather than reappearing
after the Octave. Live-verified the real behavior first (2033 proof
year): a candidate skips the whole privileged span and keeps walking
forward, FIFO by native date, until it lands; a transferred-in candidate
never gets the "still gets a nod" commemoration a native occurrence of
the same rank would along the way (confirmed with the Annunciation, zero
commemoration anywhere in the span). Also fixed Low Sunday itself, which
needed the same privileged-sunday treatment as Easter Day.
Built resolveForwardTransferLanding: a bounded queue simulation that
reuses applyIncomingTransfer unchanged per hop - its existing
privileged-feria-major no-op was already the right single-hop refusal,
it just needed a real cascade around it instead of a dead end.

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
instead of privileged-sunday, the only "great octave" season not already
so classed). Live-verified the reference engine keeps the Sunday primary
and transfers the saint instead. Fixed the category, then authored the
Sunday's own wholly proper Matins (a different psalm scheme entirely, not
a seasonal overlay) via a new per-temporalId override layer.
