Same finding as common-of-a-confessor: live-verified (St. Maurus, Jan 15;
St. Odo, Feb 7) that Common-of-an-Abbot's real Lauds/Vespers content is
identical to Common-of-a-Confessor-Not-Bishop's -- an Abbot isn't
necessarily a bishop, so the traditional rite reuses the plain Confessor
common for them. Duplicated the same 7 files under this id, matching the
existing benedictus-antiphon-common-of-an-abbot.yml precedent. Proof
tests on St. Maurus (Duplex II. classis, own Lauds + real First-Vespers
anticipation Jan 14 -> 15).

Fixed a real audit-methodology bug first: the bulk gap-audit was sampling
each saint's own date via prayVespera, which reflects whatever saint
claims First Vespers that evening (often a neighboring day's), not the
sampled saint's own category. Redid it via prayLaudes (no anticipation).
That surfaced the real finding: common-of-a-confessor (37 saints, this
app's largest remaining gap) isn't a distinct liturgical Common -- it's
common-of-a-confessor-not-bishop under a different label. St. Joseph's
and St. Thomas Aquinas's chapter is byte-identical to the already-
authored Sir 31:8-9 text, and several of the 37 saints' own file comments
already say "vide C5" (Confessor Not a Bishop) directly. Not relabeled
across the 37 saint files, since matins-hymn-common-of-a-confessor.yml
and benedictus-antiphon-common-of-a-confessor.yml already establish this
plain id as the real, working one for those saints' Matins/Benedictus
content -- duplicated the Lauds/Vespers bundle under this id too, to
match that existing convention.
Updates two existing tests whose dates collided with this fix: the
FERIAL_MONDAY constant (moved off St. Raymond Nonnatus's own day) and a
new Vespers proof on St. Joseph's First Vespers.

Third Common category (17 real users) with no Lauds/Vespers bundle
authored. Live-verified against Divinum Officium (Monastic Tridentinum
1617) votive=C4: chapter Sir 44:16-17 "Ecce sacérdos magnus," Lauds hymn
"Jesu Redémptor ómnium," shared versicle "Justum dedúxit Dóminus per vias
rectas." Found the Vespers hymn is byte-identical to Common-of-a-
Confessor-Not-Bishop's own ("Iste Conféssor Dómini sacrátus") even though
the chapter, both responsories, and the Lauds hymn all genuinely differ
between the two categories -- reused that already-authored text verbatim
rather than re-deriving it.
No real Duplex-II-classis+ saint exists in this category, so the Vespers
proof uses St. Ubald's real First-Vespers anticipation instead of a
votive-only proof. Updates one existing test (2026-04-20, Paschaltide
seasonal office) whose date turned out to also anticipate St. Anselm's
First Vespers, previously masked by this same gap.

Next-largest remaining Common category (22 real users) with no Lauds/
Vespers bundle authored, same fix pattern as Confessor-Not-Bishop and
Martyr(-Bishop). Live-verified against Divinum Officium (Monastic

Mártyrum," Vespers hymn "Sanctórum méritis ínclyta gáudia," shared

byte-identical, confirming the Missal-collect split (plain-martyrs vs.

St. Zephyrinus (Aug 26, common-of-a-martyr-bishop, Simplex) claims First
Vespers over St. Louis's Aug 25, but that evening was showing the plain
ferial hymn instead of a real Common-of-a-Martyr hymn: no content had
been authored yet for this Common category's Lauds/Vespers bundle, so
resolveOfficeBundle's chapter lookup came back missing and the whole
bundle fell through to the ferial default.
Live-verified against Divinum Officium (Monastic Tridentinum 1617)
votive=C2b: chapter Jac 1:12, Lauds hymn "Martyr Dei, qui unicum," Vespers
hymn "Deus tuorum militum," shared versicle "Justus ut palma florebit."
Used the votive-office view rather than a real saint's own day for the
same structural reason as the earlier Confessor-Not-Bishop fix: every
real Common-of-a-Martyr-Bishop saint either has proper content of his own
(St. Lawrence, St. Stephen) or never reaches the rank needed to keep his
own Vespers (St. Zephyrinus, St. Callistus). Cross-checked votive=C2/C2a/
C2b/C2-1 all render identical text, so the same 7 files were duplicated
under the plain common-of-a-martyr id too (St. Hadrian, St. Hermes, St.
Fidelis of Sigmaringen).
Updates one existing Vespers test whose date (2026-03-03) turned out to
also anticipate St. Lucius I's First Vespers, previously masked by this
same content gap; adds two new proof tests and a TODO.md entry.

hasFirstVespers() required Semiduplex-or-higher, so a bare Simplex
feast could never anticipate the evening before it. Live-verified
this was too strict: St. Zephyrinus (Aug 26, plain Simplex) claims
First Vespers over St. Louis (Aug 25, also Simplex) in the reference
engine -- "Vespera de sequenti; nihil de præcedenti." A Simplex feast
has no Second Vespers of its own, but it does still get First Vespers;
there's no rank floor at all, only keepsOwnSecondVespers' separate
question of whether the preceding day outranks the claim.
This also surfaces St. Zephyrinus's Magnificat antiphon, which now
actually gets used (St. Louis, previously shown by the old bug, is
permanently boxed out of ever governing real Vespers in this merged
calendar -- Bartholomew outranks him the evening before, Zephyrinus
the evening after, every year -- so his own Magnificat antiphon was
never authored). Added st-zephyrinus-magnificat-antiphon.yml, live-
verified bilingual text ("Iste Sanctus...").

Vespers had no suffrages (Holy Cross, BVM, Joseph, Apostles, Peace)
at all -- types.ts even documented it as Lauds-only. Live-verified
against the reference engine (Monastic Tridentinum 1617): the
"Suffragium" block after the day's collect(s) renders byte-identical
after both Lauds and Vespers, so this was an honest content gap, not
a deliberate omission.
Extracted the suffrage ids/labels and full omission logic (Double-or-
higher, Christ the King, Advent/Christmastide/Passiontide, active
octaves, Cross/Marian-Saturday special cases) out of lauds.ts into a
shared resolveSuffrages() in resolve-common.ts, and wired it into

Real Monastic 1617 has no Preces at the Little Hours, and that was
previously documented as intentional. Per this project's "not a
reconstruction" design, Prime was recently given Preces in the secular
Tridentine form as a deliberate deviation from Monastic — do the same
here: the reference engine's ferial minor-hour Preces (Kyrie, Pater
Noster, then "Domine Deus virtutum, converte nos..." V/R pairs) is
authored as a single shared common id and wired into all three hours
after the chapter. By explicit choice this is said every day regardless
of rank, mirroring Prime's own "every ferial day" simplification, rather
than importing the reference engine's Sunday/feast form, whose sourcing
(a V/R block reused from Compline) looks like a data quirk rather than
genuine minor-hour content.

Every capitulum-*.yml under the three Little Hours combined the chapter,
"R. Deo grátias"/"Thanks be to God", and the trailing V./R. pair into one
flat single-line string. The .lang-column CSS already renders on
white-space: pre-line (as little-hour-conclusio.yml's block-scalar text
already demonstrated), so the run-together rendering was purely a missing
line-break bug in the source YAML, not a CSS or resolver issue.

isSundayOrFeastOffice treats any sanctoral winner, Vigils included, as a
"feast," so a Vigil day was getting the Sunday/feast Preces. Add a
by-day-kind 'vigilIsFerial' flag, set only on Prime's Preces part (its
capitulum keeps the old behavior), so a Vigil-ranked winner now routes
to the ferial Preces text instead.

Monastic Prime's own Dominicales Preces drop the "Et ego ad te, Domine,
clamavi..." versicle block and shorten the closing "Miserere nostri,
Domine... Fiat misericordia tua..." set. Prefer the secular Tridentine
form instead (live-verified against Divinum Officium's "Tridentine -
1906" version), keeping "beato Patri nostro Benedicto" in the Confiteor
by explicit choice even though the real secular Confiteor omits it.
The Sunday/ferial by-day-kind split stays as-is; the ferial form
(prime-preces-feriales.yml) is unchanged and continues to show on every
ferial day by deliberate choice, more generously than the historical

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

the doubling step.

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

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.

Researched whether September/Advent Ember days belong in the
movable-feasts.ts table alongside Christ the King/Immaculate Heart of
Mary. Live-verified against the reference engine they don't: Ember days
are privileged ferias (a saint can still win outright against them), not
named feasts contesting the day by rank.
Two smaller pieces instead: calendar/temporal.ts's septemberEmberDayOffset
(Sunday nearest Sept 14, same "nearest" arithmetic adventStart already
used, factored into a shared nearestSunday helper) feeds a new
resolveTemporalCategory check giving those 3 dates privileged-feria-minor
(live-verified correct); calendar/ember-days.ts's applyEmberDay relabels
the day's own temporal id to the Ember day's own (so its real content is
found) when the feria itself wins, or adds a commemoration when a saint
does. Advent Ember days needed no precedence change -- Advent's own
season default already covers them.
Found and fixed a real bug along the way: matins.ts's nocturnReadingIds
only ever pulled a commemorated *sanctoral* id's own readings, never a
commemorated *temporal* one's -- so a commemorated Ember day (the common
case) would never have surfaced its own content. Same root cause as the
day.winner.id gap the IHM relocation fixed earlier, just hiding in the
commemorations loop instead.
Authored all 6 days' real collect + 3 Matins readings each, transcribed
directly from the reference engine (September: Tempora/093-{3,5,6}.txt;
Advent: Tempora/Adv3-{3,5,6}.txt, whose lessons are themselves a
cross-reference to the Annunciation's own Common, followed and
transcribed from there). Kept as 3 separate readings per day rather than
the usual combine-into-one default, since each carries its own
genuinely distinct proper responsory.

Extends TemporalFeastRecord's date anchor from a single easterOffset
number into a MovableAnchor union: 'easter' (unchanged), plus
'nth-sunday-of-month' (nth: -1 for "last") and 'nth-sunday-of-advent' --
both new anchor kinds resolve to "Nth Sunday counting from an anchor
date," just with a different anchor (first-of-month vs. Advent's own
start, which is itself always a Sunday). Adds calendar/temporal.ts's
sundayOnOrAfter to support the month case.
Migrates christ-the-king.yml onto the new nth-sunday-of-month anchor
(month: 10, nth: -1) with a new `unconditional: true` flag replacing its
old always-wins-no-rank-check bespoke function -- retiring
applyChristTheKing and its lastSundayOfOctober helper from
calendar/index.ts entirely. Down to two bespoke override functions left
(marian-saturday's date-less fallback, christmas-octave-sunday's
fixed-date-range Sunday search), both structurally different from the
Nth-Sunday-from-anchor shape this table now covers.

The bespoke applyImmaculateHeart function (following the applyMarianSaturday/
applyChristTheKing precedent of one hand-written override function per
feast) doesn't scale: several more feasts are planned that all reduce to
"weekday N days from Easter Sunday" (Ember/Rogation days, more
Sacred-Heart-family Marian devotions, St. Joseph's pre-1955 Eastertide
feast, Lenten Friday Passion devotions), and one-off functions invite
subtle ordering bugs -- applyImmaculateHeart had to be sequenced after
applyMarianSaturday specifically or it would have been silently clobbered.
Replaced with calendar/movable-feasts.ts's generic applyMovableFeasts,
which scans calendar/temporal-feasts.ts's existing per-feast YAML records
for a new optional `easterOffset` field. Adding the next movable feast is
now a new data/calendar/temporal-feasts/<id>.yml file with `rank` and
`easterOffset` set, not a new TypeScript function. Same rank-compared,
commemorate-the-loser semantics as before, just centralized instead of
duplicated per feast.
christ-the-king, marian-saturday, and christmas-octave-sunday stay as
their own functions -- they're structurally different rules (a fixed
month-position search, a date-less fallback default, and a fixed-date-
range Sunday search, respectively), not Easter offsets, so force-fitting
them into this table wouldn't actually simplify anything.
No behavior change -- the existing Immaculate Heart of Mary test suite
passes unchanged through the new generic path.

Fixed Aug 22 collided outright with the Assumption's own octave-closing
day (both this project's blended calendar tracks are kept deliberately,
so one shouldn't permanently suppress the other). Moved IHM to the
Saturday after the Feast of the Sacred Heart -- its real diocesan date
from 1914 until Pius XII's 1944 fixed-date decree, and also the date the
1969 reform returned to.
Required real new mechanism, not just a data move: a new bespoke
calendar/index.ts override (applyImmaculateHeart, following the existing
applyMarianSaturday/applyChristTheKing precedent), a move from the
sanctoral saints store to the temporal-feasts store (different propers
lookup entirely), and a real bug fix in matins.ts's nocturnReadingIds,

Monastic 1617 itself is inconsistent: the feast/closing octave day
render the old pre-dogma "Famulórum tuórum..." collect, but the
interior octave days (16/18/19/21) render the newer "Omnípotens
sempitérne Deus, qui Immaculátam..." collect from the 1954 Divino
Afflatu revision -- a data cross-reference slip in the reference
engine, not a deliberate rubric. vu already used one collect uniformly
across the whole octave rather than replicating the split; switch that
shared collect to the newer text per user preference.
Lauds/Vespers were falling back to a bare collect for her commemoration
since only the collect had been authored. Live-verified the antiphon
and versicle against the reference engine (Divino Afflatu - 1954,
1955-08-21, the nearest year her feast actually fell on a Sunday and
was commemorated rather than won).

Same `wins: duplex` override as the Assumption's and Pentecost's
octaves, applied to two more common-class octaves. Accepted side
effect: St. Damasus (Dec 11) and St. Nicholas of Tolentino (Sep 10),
both Semiduplex, no longer tie-and-win an ordinary octave day here --
they're now commemorated instead of winning outright.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Demote St. John Eudes (Aug 19) from Duplex to Semiduplex -- too minor
a confessor to keep outranking the Assumption's octave. To make that
demotion actually cede the day, raise the Assumption's octave to
`wins: duplex` (same pattern already used by Pentecost's octave), so an
ordinary-day tie no longer automatically favors the occurring saint.
Promote St. Thomas of Canterbury (Dec 29) to Duplex so he keeps
winning against the Christmas octave stack now that ordinary-day ties
are no longer a given.
Also add a closing-day tie-break to octave-vs-octave precedence
(pickWinningOctave): when two active octaves tie in rank, the one on
its own closing day now wins the label contest, ahead of the existing
"more recently started" tie-break. Needed because Assumption's day 3
and St. Lawrence's own closing day (Aug 17) now tie at Duplex, and the
closing day should still govern that date's label.

Benedictus, Magnificat, and Nunc Dimittis had the Gloria Patri baked
verbatim into their propers YAML with no Triduum suppression; Matins'
Nocturn 3 OT canticles had none at all. Give the 'canticle' ResolvedPart

omission as psalms (e.g. Benedictus at Lauds of Holy Thursday).
At Vespers/Compline, a day's own Vigil losing tonight to tomorrow's First

`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.

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.

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.

Sparse transcriptions (only the cited verses) for St. Andrew's Matins
Nocturn III canticles, live-verified against the reference engine.

Split the store into categories/*.yml (generic Common-category psalm-
number/versicle/canticle scheme) and saints/*.yml (per-saint proper
antiphon overrides, unchanged shape) per the mechanism's own flagged
next step. St. Lawrence's file moves into saints/ with a category
cross-reference; resolution behavior (per-saint lookup, ferial
fallback when unauthored) is unchanged.

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.
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).

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.

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).
