No liturgical precedent exists for this book; the verse's antithesis
("the hand of our God is upon all them that seek him in goodness: and
his power and strength, and wrath upon all them that forsake him") is
reordered so the hopeful clause repeats after the V., not the wrath
clause. Closes the per-book pool at 68/72 -- the last 4 have no
sourceable material at all.

Nehemiah was wrongly bundled in with ezra's "ambiguous, not acted on"
reasoning and left unseeded. It actually has a real, unambiguous
citation in the Missa (Ember Wednesday of September's Lectio/Communio,
Neh 8:1-10) that a prior pass never checked. R. from v.3, V. from v.9,
both from that accented Missa Lectio.

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.

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.

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.

getResponsoryForBook -- so the pool must be keyed by the canonical

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.

While auditing the Lauds/Vespers Common-category psalmody note for
staleness, found 3 saints (St. Pius X, St. Leo II, St. Pius V) use
common: common-of-a-confessor-pope, which had no alias in either
category file -- unlike common-of-a-confessor-doctor, which already
does. Live-verified (votive=C4 vs C4b, both Vespers and Lauds,
Monastic Tridentinum 1617): psalms/antiphons are byte-identical to
Confessor-Bishop's, only the Magnificat antiphon and collect differ
(both already handled per-saint, not through this table).
Note: this doesn't change any currently-visible content -- all 3
saints are ranked duplex/semiduplex, below the duplex-majus+ threshold
this psalmody-override tier is gated at, so they correctly fall to the
plain ferial default regardless. It closes a real data-completeness
gap for whenever a duplex-majus+ Confessor Pope is added.

resolveReading() in bible-plan.ts preferred each YAML row's hardcoded
status: { la: missing, en: missing } over computing status from the
actually-resolved text. That field was accurate before the Vulgate/
Douay-Rheims bulk import but was never cleared once real text landed,
so every Matins bible-plan reading kept showing as untranslated
regardless. Strip the stale field from all 368 files so status falls
through to the real compute-from-resolved-text path.
Also alias book abbreviations in scripture/index.ts's lookup: the
bulk-imported store uses Vulgate-numbering codes (sap, jac, joan,
1reg..4reg, 1par/2par, 1esdr/2esdr, ...) matching octave-readings.ts's
existing convention, while bible-plan.ts's TSV import used common
English abbreviations (kgs, sam, chr, john, jas, luke, mark, ...) for
the ~30 books where the two conventions diverge. Alias at the lookup
layer so citations keep their familiar English display form.

Layered onto vu's own already-fixed per-weekday ferial psalm numbers
rather than the reference engine's own differently-sized (Rule of
Benedict summer-contracted) psalm set for these days, consistent with
this project's deliberate rejection of that contraction.
This closes "Easter's own octave" fully: calendar precedence

Nocturn 2 (Ps 29,63,65,75,87,107 under one antiphon), Nocturn 3 (the

Every cross-psalm pair previously shared one antiphon under just the
first psalm, which read inconsistently once psalter-distribution.yml's
reslice left some pairs intact and split others. Each pair is now two
single-psalm groups: the psalm whose own words the shared antiphon
actually quoted keeps it, and its former partner gets a real antiphon
borrowed from elsewhere in the reference corpus where one exists, else
one composed fresh from its own opening verse.
Kyrie eleison and Pater Noster now render every day regardless of rank

Corrected an earlier "no source exists" claim by live-querying real
commemorated instances of the Vigils of St. Lawrence and the Assumption
across six different weekdays. Their source files' own [Rule] block
("Versum Feria") turns out to be a real, sourced mechanism, not an
absence: a mere commemoration doesn't reuse the vigil's own antiphon at
all -- it borrows the plain ferial day's antiphon/versicle instead, and
that antiphon quotes the Benedictus canticle in weekday sequence (same
shape vespers-magnificat-antiphons.yml already uses for the Magnificat).
The versicle is a single fixed text. Sunday has no entry: a Vigil
transfers off an ordinary Sunday rather than ever reaching a
commemoration there, confirmed live as well as already true in this
app's own precedence rules.
sanctoralCommemorationPart now takes weekday and resolves this
dynamically for common-of-a-vigil saints, rather than needing a static
per-saint file. All 218 saints with an authored collect now have a real
commemoration antiphon.

advent-4's own remaining Magnificat-antiphon gap turned out to be a

the seven "O Antiphons" at Vespers, keyed to the calendar date itself,
not to whichever Advent week (advent-3 or advent-4, varies by year)
happens to govern that date -- a single per-week file was structurally
the wrong shape.
Added vespers-o-antiphons.yml (MM-DD keyed) and a new lookup tier in
getMagnificatAntiphon, checked unconditionally ahead of both the
per-week temporal file and a real sanctoral winner's own antiphon --
direct instruction: the O Antiphon wins this one text slot on these
seven dates regardless of who otherwise wins the day (e.g. St. Thomas,
Dec 21, still keeps every other part of his own office). Two of the
seven (O Clavis David/O Oriens, Dec 20-21) couldn't be live-verified --
every reference-engine track routes those two dates through St.
Thomas's Vigil/feast instead, which this app's own vigil-of-st-thomas.yml
already documents diverging from -- so they're marked draft rather than
verified.

Both Canticle of Moses entries carried a book-name parenthetical in
their display name, redundant with (and now, since the last commit,
duplicated verbatim by) the citation shown right underneath. Only one
canticle is ever displayed per day, so there's nothing to disambiguate
in the UI -- trim to plain "Canticle of Moses" for both.

The user-facing citation field carried an explanatory aside
("liturgical division; split across two Lauds slots") instead of a
plain reference. Move that explanation into the file's own header
comment (which already existed) and leave citation as just "Deut
32:1-65".

Live-verified against Divinum Officium (Tridentine 1906/1910 and
Divino Afflatu 1954, Sancti/08-29.txt) — the feast's own 5-antiphon
set ([Ant Vespera], reused verbatim at Lauds as [Ant Laudes]), now
wired through both the newly rank-agnostic Lauds/Vespers proper tier
and the new minor-hour derivation mechanism. Vespers gets only the
first four (mapped onto vu's Monastic-1617-structured four-psalm
Vespers, matching common-of-a-martyr.yml's own 109/111/112/115
baseline) — the reference's own fifth antiphon is a secular five-
psalm-Vespers detail that doesn't apply here, and is used only at
Lauds' Laudate psalm instead.

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.

compline-preces.yml was already the secular Tridentine 1906/1910 text
word-for-word (verified live against both tracks), so no text change
was needed there. The actual gap: both Monastic and secular tracks drop
Compline's Preces to nothing on a Double-or-higher, unlike Vespers/Lauds
which fall back to a short form. Per explicit request, this is now a
deliberate vu-specific deviation from both tracks: on a Double, Compline
substitutes the same short Kyrie/Pater-Noster litany Vespers already
falls back to on Sundays/feasts, instead of showing nothing.

St. Mark's and St. Luke's own reference-engine rule files say "ex C1a",
byte-identical to plain C1 (Apostles) -- an Evangelist-not-Apostle
reuses the Apostles' own scheme, not a separate one.
Ss. Perpetua and Felicity's own file says "vide C7b"; C7b returns the
same four psalm numbers and group/canticle/Laudate antiphons as plain
C7 (Holy Woman) -- its only real difference is the Magnificat/Benedictus
antiphon, handled by a separate, already-existing mechanism, not this
psalmody table. (First-draft duplicate category files for this id were
written and then deleted once this was caught by diffing line-by-line
against the live output.)

Genuinely its own scheme (votive=C8) -- unlike every other Common,
Vespers' numbers (109/110/111/147) don't match any other category's
pattern. Lauds' own version is left unauthored: its OT canticle
("Canticum Ieremiae") has never been transcribed anywhere in this app,
so that file isn't written rather than guessed at (see TODO.md).

No dedicated numbered Common exists for Angels in the reference engine;
St. Michael's own rule says plain "Psalmi Dominica" with his own proper
antiphons, which Guardian Angels (no proper of her own) reuses
byte-for-byte at both hours. Authored as a reusable category so any
future proper-less Angel addition benefits automatically.

Vespers psalms on Mon-Sat were silently following the anticipated
First-Vespers day's weekday instead of the actual calendar date's, since
resolvePsalmody reused resolveEveningDay's result (correct for
propers/office, which legitimately borrow tomorrow's identity, but wrong
for the ferial psalm cycle, which has no per-feast override of its own).
Also adds a duplex-majus+ Common-category psalmody override to both
Lauds and Vespers, mirroring Matins' existing saint/category mechanism.
Lauds already had a per-feast-only override; Vespers had none. 8 of 24
Common categories authored for both hours, live-verified against the
reference engine.

Closes the last 2 of 20 Matins psalmody-override Common categories. The
Monastic-1617 track alone was a genuine dead end here -- no real saint
in the Monastic corpus ever invokes this Common, so there was no live
Monastic rendering to verify a hand-resolution against. Resolved per
explicit user authorization to source secular-track content directly,
consistent with this project's existing blended-source design: combined
a direct read of CommuneM/C7.txt's own psalm-substitution rule with one
live secular query (version=Tridentine - 1906) against St. Bridget of
Sweden to supply the actual antiphon text.
Nocturn 1/2 end up near-identical to common-of-a-virgin-martyr.yml (one
antiphon substituted, since Virgin-Martyr's own text literally calls her
a Virgin) -- too close to alias, not close enough to merge, same
reasoning as common-of-a-confessor vs. common-of-a-confessor-bishop.
Nocturn 3 is genuinely Widow-specific (Parable of the Pearl of Great
Price); its English has no source counterpart and is self-translated,
marked draft-quality.
common-of-several-women-martyrs aliased here: its own Monastic template
whole-file-inherits the same base with no genuine Matins-nocturn
override anywhere in the traced redirect chain.

Read the reference engine's CommuneM/*.txt templates directly (C6a,
C4a, C4b), rather than trial-and-error live queries, to confirm each
whole-file-inherits its parent Common's Matins nocturn psalmody with no
override. Live-verified byte-identical against St. Scholastica (Virgin
-> Virgin-Martyr) and St. Ambrose (Confessor-Doctor -> Confessor-Bishop);
Confessor-Pope -> Confessor-Bishop aliased on the source redirect chain
alone, since none of vu's three Pope-Confessor saints exist on the
Monastic-1617 calendar at all (matching the convention their own files
already use for every other hour).

Her psalm numbers and all three nocturn versicles match Common-of-a-
Virgin(-Martyr) exactly, but her page is headed "ex Proprio Sanctorum"
and her antiphons genuinely narrate her own rainstorm-miracle episode --
real proper content, not Common text, so she gets her own saint-level
file rather than being left to the Common fallback.

Common-of-an-Angel doesn't exist in the reference engine -- every angel
feast has genuine proper Matins content of its own, so these are
saint-level overrides, not a Common category. Transcribed directly from
the reference engine's source files (Sancti/05-08 etc.) after a live-CGI
attempt mis-extracted a mid-nocturn antiphon change.
St. Michael needed his own file: the psalmody-override lookup keys off
the day's resolved winner id, not the `propers` field, and his own
Matins antiphons/lessons turn out to genuinely differ from Apparition's
despite his calendar file's "word-for-word identical" claim (true only
of the collect).

Live-verified byte-identical against Ss. John of God and Camillus de
Lellis (Several Confessors -> Common-of-a-Confessor) and St. Luke
(Evangelist -> Common-of-an-Apostle) -- genuine full redirects, matching
the reference engine's own votive-index adjacency (C1/C1a, C5/C5c).
