Dedupe Matins nocturn readings pooled from two ids on the same day

post-pentecost-15 and month-week-092 land on the same Sunday (2026-09-06) and independently reuse the identical Gregory the Great Moralia in Job excerpt -- a real duplication in the reference engine's own Tempora files, not a vu authoring error. buildReadingPool pooled both ids and rendered the reading twice; now dedupes by text.

+
+Closed the rest of the "Lent's own seasonal office bundle" gap flagged in the entry above the same
+day: `vespers-{capitulum,responsory,hymn,versicle}-lent.yml` and both hours' own
+`-doxology-per-annum` files were all real content, just never marked verified. Live-verified
+Vespers' own bundle against a plain Lenten Wednesday (2026-03-04) — Joel 2:17 chapter, "Scápulis
+suis obumbrábit tibi" responsory, "Audi, benígne Cónditor" hymn (including its own claimed Monastic
+word-swap, confirmed live), shared "Ángelis suis" versicle. `lauds-hymn-lent.yml`'s own content
+("Jam Christe sol justítiæ") and its doxology were already seen live earlier the same session (while
+checking `lauds-hymn-saturday.yml`'s real content against the same 2026-02-28 Lenten Ember Saturday
+date) — byte-identical, just needed the status flipped. All 8 files now `verified`; no more draft
+Lent content anywhere in this app. `npm test` (2025 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass.
+
+### Paschaltide's "Suffragium Paschale" mechanism (2026-09-04)
+
+Closed the highest-priority remaining mechanism gap. Live-verified against Divinum Officium (both
+Monastic Tridentinum 1617 and Tridentine 1906, byte-identical between the two tracks — the source's
+own `[Suffragium]` macro literally has a `(sed tempore paschali) @:Suffragium Paschale` override,
+2026-04-20, a plain Eastertide feria): throughout the whole Paschaltide window (`eastertide`/
+`ascensiontide`/`pentecost` — the same boundary `PASCHALTIDE_SEASONS` already governs elsewhere in
+this store), two things happen whenever they'd otherwise show at all:
+
+1. The ordinary 5-suffrage set (Cross/BVM/Joseph/Apostles/Peace) collapses into one single
+   alleluia-form "Suffragium Paschale" block — one antiphon (different at Lauds, "Crucifíxus
+   surréxit a mórtuis...", vs. Vespers, "Crucem sanctam súbiit...", unlike the ordinary 4/5
+   suffrages, which share identical text at both hours), one shared versicle, one shared collect.
+2. The ferial-Preces litany (`lauds-preces-feriales`/`vespers-preces-feriales`, sourced from
+   Tridentine 1906/1910 since Monastic 1617 has none at all — see that file's own header) drops
+   entirely rather than being replaced by anything ("Preces Feriales{omittitur}" live) — a
+   Sunday/feast's own short litany (`lauds-short-litany`) is untouched, a separate, universal
+   collect-opening dialogue unrelated to this ferial-specific one.
+
+Exported a new `isPaschaltide(season)` helper from `hours/resolve-common.ts` (wraps the existing
+`PASCHALTIDE_SEASONS` set, previously private to that file) and used it in both
+`resolveSuffrages` (gated after the pre-existing "omit suffrages entirely" checks — Double+/active
+octave/Advent-Christmastide-Passiontide already drop suffrages regardless of season, unaffected)
+and a new check in `hours/lauds.ts`'s/`hours/vespers.ts`'s own `'lauds-preces'`/`'vespers-preces'`
+cases (gated on `isFerialOrVigil(day)`, matching the existing predicate that already selects the
+ferial litany in the first place). `resolveSuffrages` gained a third `hourId: 'lauds' | 'vespers'`
+parameter (both call sites updated) to pick the right antiphon.
+
+Authored `lauds-suffrage-paschale.yml` and `vespers-suffrage-paschale.yml` — English on the Vespers
+antiphon is this project's own translation and left `draft` (the reference engine's own English
+render leaves that one antiphon untranslated, Latin-only); everything else `verified`.
+
+Verified end-to-end via `resolveOrdo` on real dates for Lauds (both the suffrage collapse and the
+Preces omission fire together correctly on a clean Eastertide feria, 2026-04-20) and via a direct
+`resolveSuffrages` unit call plus a separately-found clean Vespers evening (2026-04-15, since this
+particular stretch of Eastertide 2026 is otherwise densely packed with First-Vespers anticipations
+and octaves — Easter's own, the Patronage of St. Joseph's, Ascension's, Pentecost's — that already
+correctly suppress suffrages for other, pre-existing reasons and would have made a false negative
+look like a false positive). `npm test` (2025 passed, no pre-existing tests exercised this path at
+all) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: per-book expansion + new per-Common-category pool (2026-09-04)
+
+User request: real Matins responsories for each Bible book (sourced from the reference engine),
+and for the patristic (Nocturn 2/3 homiletic) readings too. Investigation found the patristic side
+was a much bigger, previously-untracked gap than the per-book pool's own "expand beyond `isa`" item
+already on this list: 272 of 355 `data/propers/nocturn-readings/*.yml` files have no `responsory`
+field at all — most of the calendar, not a handful of stragglers.
+
+**Per-book pool** (`data/hours/matins-responsories-by-book.yml`): added `gen` (2 entries, Latin/
+Tempora/Quadp1-1.txt — Monday of Septuagesima week, the historical start of the Genesis "Historia"
+cycle, a plain ferial with no overriding feast; only 2 entries because the source's own English
+translation is missing a 3rd) and `jer` (3 entries, Latin/Tempora/Quad6-2.txt — Tuesday of Holy
+Week, "Feria privilegiata," genuine ferial Jeremiah/Lamentations content). Deliberately did *not*
+seed `jer` from Pent02-5.txt despite it citing Jeremiah too — that day's Rank is Sacred Heart
+(Duplex I classis), so its Responsory1-3 are the feast's own proper text, not genuine ferial-book
+content, even though its Lectio verses are borrowed from Jeremiah. Still only 3 of 72 books used
+in the user's own bible-plan seeded (`isa`, `gen`, `jer`) — the rest is deferred bulk content, one
+real live-sourced query per book, same pattern.
+
+**New per-Common-category pool** (`data/hours/matins-responsories-by-common.yml` +
+`getResponsoryForCommon` in `src/propers/matins-responsories.ts`, sibling to the existing
+`getResponsoryForBook`): keyed by `SaintRecord.common` instead of a scripture book, same "loose
+match, cycle by index" design. Unlike the per-book pool (scattered one query per book, across the
+whole liturgical year), a Commune category's responsories live in one static file each
+(`divinum-officium-reference`'s `web/www/horas/{Latin,English}/Commune/CN.txt`) — 9 files
+(`C1`-`C8`, `C11`) transcribed directly, cover all 19 of vu's real `common:` category ids (several
+are genuine aliases, confirmed by reading each candidate file's own `@Commune/CX` inheritance line
+rather than guessed — e.g. `common-of-a-confessor-doctor`/`-pope` inherit C4 unchanged, same pool
+as `common-of-a-confessor-bishop`; `common-of-an-abbot`/`-not-bishop`/`several-confessors` inherit
+C5 unchanged; `common-of-a-martyr` inherits C2 unchanged; `common-of-a-virgin` inherits C6
+unchanged; `common-of-a-widow`/`several-women-martyrs` inherit C7 unchanged — see the data file's
+own header for the full mapping). Not seeded: `common-of-an-angel`/`-an-evangelist`/`-a-vigil` and
+the `proper-to-*` ids — none of these are real Commune categories with a responsory file to source
+from (angels/evangelists have their own proper content instead).
+
+Wired into `hours/matins.ts`'s `nocturnReadingPart`/`gospelReadingPart`: when a reading's own
+`responsory` field is absent, falls back to `getResponsoryForCommon(getSaintRecord(id)?.common,
+index)` — `index` is the reading's position within that same id's own file (a new `commonPoolIndex`
+counter in `buildReadingPool`'s assembly loop), so a saint with several undated readings still gets
+distinct responsories across them rather than the pool's first entry repeated. A temporal/octave id
+(no `common` category) still correctly gets `undefined` — an honest absence, not a wrong guess.
+
+Live-verified end-to-end via `resolveOrdo`: St. Francis de Sales (2026-01-29, `common-of-a-
+confessor-bishop`, previously responsory-less) now resolves a real Nocturn 3 responsory; Ss.
+Cornelius and Cyprian plus Ss. Euphemia, Lucy, and Geminianus (both on 2026-09-16, both `common-
+of-several-martyrs`) each resolve their own responsory from the same pool, confirming the
+per-saint-file cycling index doesn't leak across different saints sharing a day. `npm test` (2025
+passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: 8 more books seeded (2026-09-04)
+
+Follow-up to the same-day entry above, continuing the per-book pool's bulk-content pass — same
+"one real source per book" method, no mechanism changes. Added `exod` (Latin/Tempora/Quad4-0.txt,
+Sunday IV in Lent, its own ordinary rank — the burning bush through the Song of the Sea), `prov`
+(081-1.txt, August week 1's own ferial), `tob` (093-0.txt, September week 3's own Sunday), `ezek`
+(111-1.txt, November week 1's own ferial), and `1macc` (101-1.txt, October week 1's own ferial) —
+all bilingual, all genuinely their own book's content, no overriding rank.
+
+Also added `sir` and `sap` (identical to `prov`'s own entries) and `dan` (identical to `ezek`'s) —
+not guessed reuse, confirmed by reading each week's own reference-engine file: the August "Wisdom
+literature" weeks (081 Prov, 083 Sap, 084-085 Sir) and the November "prophetic" weeks (111 Ezek,
+113 Dan) `@`-reference *the same* underlying responsory set regardless of which specific book that
+week's Lectio actually reads that day — a real confirmation, from the reference engine's own data,
+that this app's "loose, book-level match, not exact-citation" responsory design (see the pool's own
+header, and the 2026-08 user direction it's sourced from) matches how these responsories genuinely
+worked historically, not an invention to paper over a smaller pool.
+
+Skipped, deliberately: `1sam` (1 Reg) — every Pent01 week file's responsories are macro references
+(`@:Responsory1_ (sed rubrica cisterciensis) ...`, `[Rule] Initia cum responsory`) rather than
+literal text, needing the base macro template resolved with per-file substitutions to get real
+text; not worth the complexity for one book this pass. `2sam`/`1kgs`/`2kgs`/`2macc` (2/3/4 Reg, 2
+Mac) — real Latin responsories exist in every week's own file, but the reference engine's own
+English translation is entirely absent for all of them (checked every Post-Pentecost week each book
+appears in); left unseeded rather than guessing a translation, consistent with only seeding books
+that have real bilingual source text. `zach`/`amos`/`agg` (minor prophets) — same English-translation
+gap, but Latin is real and available (Latin/Tempora/114-4.txt, 115-4.txt, 115-5.txt) if a future
+pass wants to add an own-translation draft English side (see `vu-prefer-text-over-missing` memory
+for the precedent).
+
+Now 11 of 72 bible-plan books seeded: `isa`, `gen`, `jer`, `exod`, `prov`, `sir`, `sap`, `tob`,
+`ezek`, `dan`, `1macc`. `npm test` (2025 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass; live-verified via
+`getResponsoryForBook` resolving real text for every new key.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: a real extraction bug found, 8 more books unblocked (2026-09-04)
+
+User pushback on the previous entry's "5 books skipped, no English available" claim ("look at the
+secular office for most of the books") — right call: re-checking found a genuine bug, not a real
+source gap. The extraction script's Responsory-block regex only matched a bare `[ResponsoryN]` tag;
+it missed the reference engine's own `[ResponsoryN_]` convention (an underscore-suffixed literal
+template tag holding the real text, which a plain `[ResponsoryN]` often just `@:`-references
+alongside a Cistercian-rubric variant) — so every file using that convention looked like it had no
+English translation when the real text was sitting right there under a different tag name. Fixed
+the script to prefer the `_`-suffixed tag's literal body over a bare `@:`-reference.
+
+This unblocked `1sam` (Latin/Tempora/Pent01-1.txt, its own genuine 3-entry set — the young Samuel's
+call and consecration) outright. Chasing the `@Tempora/X:ResponsoryN` cross-file references (not
+resolved by the extraction script, hand-followed instead) also unblocked:
+- `2sam`/`1kgs`/`2kgs` (2/3/4 Reg) — all three books' own week files `@`-reference the *same*
+  single entry, Tempora/Pent03-1Feria's Responsory1 (2 Samuel 24's census/plague narrative,
+  "Recordáre, Dómine, testaménti tui") — read directly, not guessed, same "loose match" reuse
+  pattern already established for the Wisdom-literature and Ezekiel/Daniel weeks. One entry only;
+  Responsory2/3 chain further references not followed this pass.
+- `2macc` — reuses `1macc`'s own 3-entry set outright (Tempora/104-1 `@`-references Tempora/101-1).
+- `zach` (Tempora/115-5, itself referencing 111-0's Responsory4-6 — Ezekiel's own Sunday, distinct
+  from `ezek`/`dan`'s own Monday-sourced entries) and `amos`/`agg` (both referencing Tempora/
+  Pent01-0's Responsory1 — Isaiah's throne-vision — plus 111-0's Responsory2-3) — all three
+  minor-prophet books previously assumed to have no reference-engine English at all; that was true
+  of their *own* week files in isolation, but false once their `@`-references were actually
+  followed.
+
+19 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded (added this pass: `1sam`, `2sam`, `1kgs`, `2kgs`, `2macc`,
+`zach`, `amos`, `agg`). `npm test` (2025 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass; live-verified via
+`getResponsoryForBook` resolving real text for every new key, at every pool index (not just index
+0) for the 3-entry sets.
+
+Still genuinely unseeded after this pass — real gaps, re-confirmed: books with no reference-engine
+citation anywhere in Tempora at all (Josue, Judices, Ruth, Paralipomenon/Chronicles, Esdras/
+Nehemias, Canticles — the historic secular/monastic Historia cycle apparently never assigns these
+their own continuous reading), and the remaining ~45 New Testament epistle/Acts/Apocalypse books
+plus minor books not yet attempted.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: 12 more OT books, and 2 real process misses caught (2026-09-04)
+
+User caught two things this pass, neither of them a source gap:
+
+1. Directly pointed at `web/www/horas/English/Tempora/094-3.txt` and asked why Judith ("jdt") was
+   listed as unseeded when it plainly has real responsory content. Checking confirmed it — worse,
+   `jdt` and `esth` (Esther) had *both* already surfaced in this same day's own full-citation dump
+   of Tempora (`!Jdt`, `!Esth` were right there in the list) and were simply never followed up on.
+   Not a search-methodology gap this time, an attention gap: the data was already in hand.
+2. Self-audit prompted by that catch found a second, independent miss: `job` — one of the
+   heaviest-used books in the bible-plan (42 rows) — had been extracted early in this same day's
+   session (Latin/Tempora/091-1.txt, the classic "Job Responsories," also used in the Requiem) but
+   never actually committed to the pool file at all. Sourced, verified, then silently dropped.
+
+Fixed both, then used the same "reused across a whole prophetic-literature week" pattern already
+established for `ezek`/`dan`/`zach` to sweep the rest of November's minor prophets efficiently by
+following each book's own `@Tempora/X:ResponsoryN` reference rather than re-querying from scratch:
+`obad` (reuses `zach`'s own R1), `jonah`/`mal` (share one entry, Tempora/111-0:R7), `hos`/`nah`
+(reuse `ezek`/`dan`'s own R1), `mic` (reuses `amos`/`agg`'s own R1), `hab`/`joel` (share one entry,
+Tempora/111-2:R1), `zeph` (Tempora/111-3:R1, its own). Also added `eccl` (Tempora/081-2:R1, the
+same August "Wisdom literature" week cluster as `prov`/`sir`/`sap`, a different entry than
+`prov`'s own) and `lam` (Latin/Tempora/Quad6-4.txt — Maundy Thursday's own Tenebrae Matins, the
+classic "In monte Oliveti"/"Tristis est anima mea"/"Ecce vidimus eum" responsories; unlike the
+Sacred Heart/Jeremiah override case above, Holy Week's own high rank isn't an unrelated feast
+displacing ordinary content here — Tenebrae's Lamentations reading is intrinsically Holy Week's
+own, so no override caution applied).
+
+33 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded (added this pass: `jdt`, `esth`, `job`, `eccl`, `hab`, `joel`,
+`zeph`, `obad`, `jonah`, `mal`, `hos`, `mic`, `nah`, `lam` — 14 new). `npm test` (2025 passed) and
+`tsc --noEmit` both pass; live-verified via `getResponsoryForBook` resolving real text for every
+new key.
+
+Confirmed still genuinely absent (re-checked directly, not just re-asserted): `bar` (Baruch),
+Josue, Judices, Ruth, Paralipomenon/Chronicles, Esdras/Nehemias, Canticles — no citation anywhere
+in Tempora. 39 remaining books not yet attempted: Leviticus/Numbers/Deuteronomy, the four Gospels,
+Acts, Apocalypse, and the NT epistles.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: real key-alias bug found and fixed (2026-09-04)
+
+A serious correctness bug, found by re-verifying through the *real* pipeline rather than trusting
+the earlier direct-function-call "live verification": `bible-plan.ts` normalizes a reading's book
+through `canonicalBook()` (`scripture/index.ts`'s `BOOK_ALIASES` map) *before* calling
+`getResponsoryForBook` — so the pool must be keyed by the canonical form, not the bible-plan TSV's
+own raw book code, whenever the two differ. 12 of this same day's 33 seeded keys used the raw form
+instead: `1macc`/`2macc` (canonical `1mach`/`2mach`), `1sam`/`2sam`/`1kgs`/`2kgs` (`1reg`/`2reg`/
+`3reg`/`4reg`), `jdt` (`jdth`), `zeph` (`soph`), `obad` (`abd`), `jonah` (`jon`), `hos` (`osee`),
+`mic` (`mich`) — every one of these would have silently resolved to `undefined` in the real app
+despite passing this same day's own "live-verified" test, because that test called
+`getResponsoryForBook` directly with the raw code, bypassing the normalization the real call site
+always applies. Renamed all 12 keys (and their own header comments) to the canonical form.
+Re-verified this time through the actual `getBiblePlanReadings` call site (not a direct
+`getResponsoryForBook` call) on a real date (2026-06-04, `post-pentecost-01`/Thursday, `1sam 9-10`)
+— confirms a real responsory now resolves where it silently wouldn't have before this fix. `npm
+test` (2025 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass.
+
+**Lesson for future sourcing passes**: when a book has a `BOOK_ALIASES` entry, the pool key is the
+*alias target*, not the bible-plan YAML's own book code — check `scripture/index.ts`'s
+`BOOK_ALIASES` map before choosing a key, and verify through `getBiblePlanReadings`/`resolveOrdo`
+(the real call chain), not a direct, unnormalized call to `getResponsoryForBook`.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: NT books (Acts, Apocalypse, James, Hebrews, the 4 Gospels) (2026-09-04)
+
+Continuing the same bulk-sourcing pass, applying the previous entry's own lesson from the start
+this time (canonical keys, pipeline-verified). Surveyed the whole reference engine's own citation
+set precisely (an `awk` one-liner reading the line *after* every `[LectioN]` tag, following two
+lines deep for Gospel entries whose citation sits below a "Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum..."
+line) rather than grepping loosely for a book prefix — the loose approach had already produced one
+false positive this session (`Rom` matching a Lauds Capitulum, not a real Matins Lectio).
+
+Added, all bilingual, all real Nocturn responsories:
+- `act` (Ascension Day's own Matins, Latin/Tempora/Pasc5-4.txt) and `marc` (Easter Sunday's own
+  Matins, Pasc0-0.txt) — both high-ranked feast days, but genuinely proper content (Ascension's
+  own Nocturn 1 *is* Acts 1; Easter's *is* Mark 16), not an unrelated override like the Sacred
+  Heart/Jeremiah case — same reasoning already used for `lam`.
+- `heb` (Good Friday's own Tenebrae Matins, Quad6-5.txt) — same reasoning again, Passion-narrative
+  responsories ("Omnes amici mei," "Velum templi scissum est").
+- `apoc` (Easter III Sunday, its own ordinary rank, Pasc3-0.txt) and `jas` (Easter IV Sunday,
+  Pasc4-0.txt) — genuine Paschaltide Sunday responsory sets, not thematically tied to Apocalypse/
+  James specifically (a generic Alleluia-form psalm-based set), same "loose match" convention as
+  everywhere else in this pool.
+- `luc`/`matt`/`joan` (Advent I/II/III Sundays, Adv1-0/Adv2-0/Adv3-0.txt) — each Gospel's own
+  reading week, generic Advent-themed responsories, only 1 entry each (a second Sunday's own set
+  wasn't chased down this pass).
+
+41 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded. `npm test` (2025 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass;
+live-verified through the real `getBiblePlanReadings` call chain this time (not a direct
+`getResponsoryForBook` call) — `easter-3`/Monday (`act`, `joan` via the `john`→`joan` alias),
+`post-pentecost-01`/Saturday (`1sam` via alias, `prov`, `matt`), and a calendar-dated Jan 10 row
+(`heb`) all resolve real responsory text; `Deut` correctly still resolves `undefined` (genuinely
+unseeded, confirmed absent from Tempora entirely).
+
+Confirmed no English exists anywhere in the reference engine for Galatians/Ephesians/Philippians/
+Colossians/Titus/Philemon (the whole post-Epiphany reading season) or Romans (the Christmas-Octave
+season) — real Latin text exists for all of these, just no bilingual source; left unseeded rather
+than own-translating six-plus books in one pass. 32 books remain (9 of them the already-confirmed-
+genuinely-absent `bar`/Josue/Judices/Ruth/Chronicles/Esdras-Nehemias/Canticles): Leviticus/
+Numbers/Deuteronomy, Romans, 1-2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1-2
+Thessalonians, 1-2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon, 1-2 Peter, 1-3 John, Jude not yet attempted.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: last real batch (1 Cor, 2 Cor, 1 Peter, 1 John), a repeated key bug (2026-09-04)
+
+Confirmed Leviticus/Numbers/Deuteronomy genuinely absent from Tempora (re-checked precisely with
+the `awk`-based Lectio-citation survey, not a loose grep — no hit under any Latin form of the
+book's name). Added `1cor` (Maundy Thursday's own Nocturn 3, Latin/Tempora/Quad6-4.txt
+Responsory7-9 — the Institution narrative, distinct from that same file's Responsory1-3 already
+used for `lam`), `2cor` (Epiphany II Sunday, its own ordinary rank, Epi2-0.txt), `1pet` (1 Peter's
+own reading week `@`-references the ordinary Paschaltide Sunday psalm-set already used for `jac`
+below — R4-6 of that same Pasc4-0.txt), and `1joan` (Sunday within the Ascension Octave, Pasc6-0.txt,
+the Paraclete responsory, only 1 entry).
+
+**A repeated mistake, caught by self-audit this time**: the previous entry's `jas` key was wrong —
+same bug as the 12-key fix two entries up. `BOOK_ALIASES` maps bible-plan's `jas` to canonical
+`jac`; the pool needed `jac:`, not `jas:`. Fixed, and re-verified through `getBiblePlanReadings`
+(not a direct call) on `easter-6`/Monday, 2026-05-11 (`Jas 2` now resolves a real responsory).
+**Ran a full audit this time**: checked every single current pool key against `BOOK_ALIASES`
+programmatically (not just the ones touched this pass) — confirmed clean, zero raw-alias-source
+keys remain anywhere in the file.
+
+45 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded. `npm test` (2025 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass.
+
+Remaining 27, none easily gettable this pass: 12 confirmed genuinely absent from the reference
+source (`bar`, Canticles, Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1-2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Leviticus, Numbers,
+Deuteronomy); 15 with real Latin but no reference-engine English anywhere (Romans, Galatians,
+Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, Titus, Philemon, 2 Thessalonians, 2 Timothy, 2 Peter, 2-3 John,
+Jude). Own-translating any of these would be the next step, if wanted — not attempted here per the
+established "only seed real bilingual source" pattern.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: the "untranslated 15" turned out mostly already bilingual (2026-09-04)
+
+Asked to translate the 15 "real Latin, no English" books. Before translating anything, re-checked
+each one's own `@Tempora/X:ResponsoryN` reference chain (the same technique that unblocked 8 books
+earlier the same day) — and found the whole post-Epiphany "ordinary time" reading season (weeks
+3-5, covering Galatians/Ephesians/Philippians/Colossians/1-2 Timothy/Titus/Philemon/2
+Thessalonians) doesn't have its own distinct responsory content at all: every one of its 21 feria
+files `@`-references 2 Corinthians' own week (Epi2-0 through Epi2-6, already fully bilingual from
+earlier this same day) by weekday position. Confirmed by reading every week-3/4/5 feria file's own
+`@`-line directly, not guessed. Same story for 2 Peter, 2-3 John, and Jude — all four `@`-reference
+Ascension Day's own responsories (already seeded as `act`). **None of these 12 books needed any
+translation at all** — added `gal`/`phil`/`1tim` (share Epi2-1), `col`/`2tim` (share Epi2-2),
+`eph` (Epi2-3), `1thess`/`tit` (share Epi2-4), `2thess`/`phlm` (share Epi2-6), `2pet`/`2joan`/
+`3joan` (share `act`'s R1), `jud` (`act`'s R7) — all real, already-transcribed bilingual text.
+
+Also fixed a real, separate bug the user caught by eye in the rendered app: `getResponsoryForBook`'s
+`joinResponsory` concatenated the pool's `r`/`v` text with a bare newline and no "R."/"V." labels
+at all — every other responsory source in the app (`octave-readings.ts`'s own `responsory` field,
+every `nocturn-readings/*.yml`'s inline `responsory`, and the new per-Common-category pool) uses
+the full "R. ...\n* ...\nV. ...\nR. ..." convention. Fixed by computing the repeat line from the
+`*` marker already present in the pool's own `r` text (a separate commit, `1867f73`, before this
+content pass).
+
+**Only `rom` (Romans) turned out to have no content to translate at all**, on inspection — re-
+checked every one of its 15 citing files (all in the Christmas-Octave `Nat0X` range): every single
+one `@`-references an unrelated feast's own proper responsory (Circumcision, Christmas Day, or a
+January 7 saint), never anything Romans-specific, standalone or borrowed. There's no genuine
+"Romans content" anywhere in this reference source to translate, sourced or original — using one of
+these borrowed responsories would repeat the Sacred Heart/Jeremiah mismatch this file already
+avoids elsewhere. Left `rom` unseeded; it would need an entirely original composition, not a
+translation, if ever wanted.
+
+59 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded — every book with any genuinely usable Latin at all. The
+remaining 13 (`rom` plus the 12 already-confirmed-absent books) are the real, final gap: `rom` has
+no book-specific content anywhere in this source; the other 12 have no citation anywhere at all.
+Ran the full canonical-key audit again (programmatic check against `BOOK_ALIASES`, per the
+established lesson) — confirmed clean. `npm test` (2025 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass;
+live-verified through `getBiblePlanReadings` (`post-epiphany-3`/Wednesday `Gal`, `post-epiphany-5`/
+Monday `1tim`, `sunday-after-ascension`/Saturday `Jude` all resolve real responsory text; `Ruth`
+correctly still resolves `undefined`).
+
+### Matins responsory pools: `cant` (Canticles) found in the Sancti files, not Tempora (2026-09-05)
+
+User pushback on `cant` being listed "confirmed genuinely absent": right instinct to check the
+Commune files specifically — Canticles/Song of Songs imagery is heavily used in Marian propers.
+Checked `Latin/Commune/C12.txt` (the Little Office of the BVM) directly: it does cite `!Cant 6:8`,
+but only as a Lauds Capitulum, not a Matins Nocturn lesson — Capitula don't carry their own
+9-Responsory structure, and C12's actual Lectio1-3 are Sirach 24, not Canticles (matching this
+pool's existing `common-of-the-bvm` sourcing). So the Commune search itself came up empty for a
+genuine Matins responsory — but it redirected the search productively: checked `Sancti/` (individual
+saint/feast files) with the same `awk` Lectio-citation survey used for Tempora, and found real
+`!Cant` Nocturn lessons on the Visitation (July 2) and throughout the Assumption Octave
+(Sancti/08-15t through 08-22t) — the historic BVM feasts that read straight through the Song of
+Songs. Only the Visitation's own file (`07-02.txt`) has both languages; the Assumption Octave days
+have real Latin but no English anywhere.
+
+Added `cant`, sourced from `Sancti/07-02.txt` — genuinely Canticles-sourced responsories that
+directly blend Song of Songs verses with the Visitation narrative itself ("Surge, própera, amíca
+mea... Intrávit María in domum Zacharíæ"), not a borrowed-unrelated-feast mismatch.
+
+60 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded. `npm test` (2025 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass;
+live-verified through `getBiblePlanReadings` (a Dec 27 calendar-dated row resolves real `Cant 3`
+responsory text). Canonical-key audit re-run, clean (`cant` has no `BOOK_ALIASES` entry).
+
+Prompted by finding `cant` in Sancti, re-checked the other 11 already-confirmed-absent books
+against Sancti too (not just Tempora) — found 2 more: `lev` (Leviticus, `Sancti/02-02.txt`, the
+Purification of the BVM — its own Leviticus purification-law reading is the feast's actual reason
+for being) and `num` (Numbers, `Sancti/09-14.txt`, the Exaltation of the Holy Cross — the
+bronze-serpent/Cross typology, Num 21:6-9, only 1 entry). Both genuine thematic matches, not
+borrowed-unrelated content. The other 9 (`bar`, Josue, Judices, Ruth, 1-2 Chronicles, Ezra,
+Nehemiah, Deuteronomy) checked against the reference engine's own full Sancti citation list —
+confirmed still absent, no alternate abbreviation missed.
+
+62 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded — the real final count. `npm test` (2025 passed) and
+`tsc --noEmit` both pass; live-verified through `getBiblePlanReadings` (`lent-3`/Sunday resolves
+real `Lev 1` responsory text, `palm-sunday`/Sunday resolves real `Num 25-27` text). Canonical-key
+audit re-run, clean. Remaining 10, the true final gap: `rom` plus 9 books with no citation
+anywhere in Tempora or Sancti (`bar`, Josue, Judices, Ruth, 1-2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah,
+Deuteronomy).
+
+### Advent reading-plan carryover into Christmastide (2026-09-05)
+
+User-flagged wrinkle in `data/hours/bible-plan/*.yml`'s own Isaiah plan: it's authored as a full
+4-week Advent (`advent-1-sunday` through `advent-4-saturday`, 28 rows), but real Advent is never
+that long. Advent's last real day is always Dec 23 (Dec 24 is the Vigil of Christmas's own
+temporal id, `calendar/temporal-id.ts`), while Advent 1 Sunday itself — the Sunday nearest Nov 30
+— falls anywhere from Nov 27 to Dec 3. Even the *longest* possible Advent (Nov 27, 27 real days)
+is one short of the full 28-row plan; the *shortest* (Dec 3, 21 real days) is a whole week short.
+Every single year, at least the plan's last row never lands on its own natural date — not just
+"most years," as the request first put it.
+
+Fixed in `propers/bible-plan.ts`'s new `adventCarryoverReadings`: whatever doesn't land on its own
+natural date now carries forward one reading per day starting Christmas Day itself, pooled
+alongside whatever Christmastide's own calendar-dated rows already have for that day (never
+replacing them) — same "every contributing source pools, none override" design already used
+throughout this file and `hours/matins.ts`'s own reading-pool assembly. Computed live from
+`calendar/temporal.ts`'s `adventStart(year)` for each date's own year (the one place in this file
+that needs real calendar-year awareness, since every other lookup here is year-independent); no
+new content authoring needed, since the Isaiah rows were already there, just never reachable on
+their own natural date in a short year.
+
+User's own framing accepted as the trade-off: "for advent only, we need to show all of those
+chapters" — i.e. every planned reading should surface somewhere, even if that means spilling into
+Christmastide, rather than silently dropping the tail end of a short year's Advent plan.
+
+Live-verified across the full spread of possible Advent-1-Sunday dates (`adventStart` for
+2020-2035 spans exactly the Nov 27 - Dec 3 range): 2028 (Advent 1 Sunday = Dec 3, the latest/
+shortest case) carries all 7 of week 4's Isaiah readings forward across Dec 25-31 in order; 2027/
+2032 (Advent 1 Sunday = Nov 28, near-earliest/longest) carry only the last 2. Added 4 permanent
+tests to `tests/propers/bible-plan.test.ts` covering both extremes, the pooling-not-replacing
+behavior, and that nothing carries over before Christmas Day itself. `npm test` (2029 passed,
+4 new) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: `deut` — the first genuine original composition, not a transcription (2026-09-05)
+
+User found a real lead while reading a patristic homily (`English/Sancti/01-02.txt`, on Matt
+23:37 "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem"): it quotes Deut 32:11's eagle image in passing ("as also it is
+written... an eagle stirreth up her nest... spreadeth abroad her wings"). Confirmed the verse
+number against `data/scripture/deut-32.yml`'s own `n: 11` — genuinely Deut 32:11 in standard
+citation, not the breviary's own internal chant-verse-numbering for the same text (which splits
+it as 32:15-16 in `Latin/Psalterium/Psalmorum/Psalm226.txt`, the real Canticle of Moses sung at
+Lauds — that file supplied real, properly accented liturgical Latin and its English counterpart
+gave the matching translation, so no accentuation had to be guessed).
+
+Unlike every other entry in this pool, Deuteronomy genuinely has no historical Matins responsory
+anywhere in the reference source (confirmed absent from both Tempora and Sancti in the two prior
+entries) — so this one is composed, not transcribed: a real R./V. pairing built entirely from
+that same canticle's own genuine verses (32:15's eagle image as the R., 32:13-14's "apple of his
+eye" as the V.), verbatim text, not paraphrased or invented, just newly paired. Documented plainly
+in the data file's own header comment as vu's own composition rather than presented as a
+historically-attested responsory, matching this project's "not a reconstruction" ethos.
+
+63 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded (`deut` added). `npm test` (2029 passed) and `tsc --noEmit`
+both pass; live-verified through `getBiblePlanReadings` (`easter-3`/Saturday resolves the real,
+properly R./V.-formatted text for `Deut 33-34`). Canonical-key audit re-run, clean (`deut` has no
+`BOOK_ALIASES` entry).
+
+### Matins responsory pools: `rom` — the second (and last) original composition (2026-09-05)
+
+Asked directly for thoughts on Romans, the one book with real citations but no usable Matins
+content anywhere (every citing file borrows an unrelated feast's own proper responsory — Christmas
+Day, Circumcision, or a January 7 saint). Same approach as `deut`: composed rather than
+transcribed, but built from real, already-liturgical text rather than invented — Rom 13:11-12
+("the night is past, the day is at hand... let us cast off the works of darkness, and put on the
+armour of light") is the standing year-round ferial Lauds Capitulum
+(`Latin/Psalterium/Special/Major Special.txt`'s own "Feria Laudes") and is used again at Advent
+I's own Capitulum (`Tempora/Adv1-0.txt`) — genuine accented Vulgate/Douay-Rheims text, just never
+combined into its own 9-lesson Matins responsory set the way every other book in this pool was.
+User-confirmed before adding.
+
+**64 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded — every book actually used in the user's own bible-plan has
+a real responsory, whether transcribed (62) or composed from genuine liturgical text (`deut`,
+`rom`).** The remaining 8 are the true, final, unclosable gap: books with no citation anywhere in
+Tempora or Sancti at all (`bar`, Josue, Judices, Ruth, 1-2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah) — there's no
+comparable "already-liturgical, just never assembled into a responsory" text to build from for any
+of these, since they're never quoted or read in the Office at all, historically. `npm test` (2029
+passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass; live-verified through `getBiblePlanReadings` (a Jan 1
+calendar-dated row resolves real, correctly R./V.-formatted text for `Rom 7-8`). Canonical-key
+audit re-run, clean.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: `bar` found in the Missa, not the Horas (2026-09-05)
+
+The "closes the pool" claim above turned out premature by one book. 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, Israël, mandáta
+vitæ") is genuine, real, accented liturgical Latin — just never part of the Office's own Matins at
+all, in either directory tree. Composed `bar` the same way as `deut`/`rom`: built from that
+prophecy's own climactic close ("Hic est Deus noster... Post hæc in terris visus est, et cum
+homínibus conversátus est" — read at the Vigil because early exegetes saw "seen upon earth, and
+conversed with men" as a prophecy of the Incarnation), genuine text, not invented.
+
+**65 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded.** `npm test` (2029 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass;
+live-verified through `getBiblePlanReadings` (`palm-sunday`/Thursday resolves real, correctly
+R./V.-formatted text for `Bar 1-2`). Canonical-key audit re-run, clean (`bar` has no `BOOK_ALIASES`
+entry).
+
+**This closes the per-book responsory pool as a project** (see "Matins responsory pools" and its
+eleven follow-up entries, 2026-09-04/05) — the per-Common-category pool (19/19 real categories) is
+also done; see that same first entry. Extended the Missa check to the other 6 already-absent books
+too (Josue, Judices, Ruth, 1-2 Chronicles) — genuinely zero citations anywhere, Horas or Missa.
+Ezra came up with one thin, ambiguous lead not acted on: `missa/Latin/Tempora/Pasc7-2.txt`'s
+Introit cites `!Esdr 2:36 2:37`, but the actual Vulgate text there (checked against
+`data/scripture/1esdr-2.yml`) is a plain census list that doesn't match the Introit's own text at
+all ("Accípite jucunditátem glóriæ vestræ... qui vos ad cœléstia regna vocávit"). User's own
+explanation (2026-09-05), plausible and probably right, though unprovable without a text we don't
+have: Vulgate numbering is genuinely ambiguous here — "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 entirely
+that this project has never digitized. The reference engine's own citation never disambiguates
+("Esdr" bare, no "3" anywhere else in the source to compare against), so this can't be confirmed
+outright, but it cleanly explains why the citation doesn't match our canonical Ezra text. Left
+both `ezra` and `neh` unseeded rather than force an uncertain match. One small, unrelated loose end
+noted along the way
+and not addressed here: the bible-plan TSV's own content still isn't covered by a table-driven
+test the way other bulk-imported content stores are (see "Bible-plan TSV — bulk conversion done"
+below) — `tests/propers/bible-plan.test.ts` tests specific real dates ad hoc, not the full imported
+set.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: `ruth` — the first composition with no liturgical precedent at all (2026-09-05)
+
+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, even though — unlike `deut`/`rom`/`bar` — this text
+has *no* liturgical precedent anywhere in the reference source at all (no Nuptial Mass file even
+exists there to check against). Flagged that distinction directly before proceeding; user confirmed
+it explicitly, aware of the difference from the three prior compositions (all of which recombined
+text already used liturgically elsewhere, just never in Matins).
+
+Since the project's usual bulk-imported `data/scripture/ruth-1.yml` 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 reference corpus (`quocúmque`, `pópulus tuus`,
+`páriter`, `ábeam`, `relínquam`, `moráta`, `morábor`, `móriar`, `moriéntem`, `suscéperit`,
+`sepultúræ`) rather than guessed freehand from scratch.
+
+66 of 72 bible-plan books now seeded. `npm test` (2029 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass;
+live-verified through `getBiblePlanReadings` (`sunday-after-ascension`/Saturday resolves real,
+correctly R./V.-formatted text in both languages for `Ruth 3-4`). Canonical-key audit re-run, clean
+(`ruth` has no `BOOK_ALIASES` entry). Remaining 6: Josue, Judices, 1-2 Chronicles, Nehemiah (no
+citation anywhere at all) plus `ezra` (one thin, ambiguous near-miss, deliberately left unseeded —
+see the entry above).
+
+### Matins responsory pools: `2esdr` (Nehemiah) — correcting a mis-diagnosis (2026-09-05)
+
+The entry above's "Nehemiah: no citation anywhere at all" was wrong — Nehemiah had been bundled in
+with `ezra`'s "one thin, ambiguous near-miss" reasoning without ever getting its own Missa check, the
+same check that had already found and closed `bar` a few entries earlier. It has a real, unambiguous
+citation: Ember Wednesday of September's own Lectio and Communio both quote Neh 8
+(`missa/Latin/Tempora/093-3.txt`, `!Neh 8:1-10` / `!Neh 8:10`), genuine accented Latin, matching
+English in the sibling `English/Tempora/093-3.txt`.
+
+User-directed: R. from v.3 ("Et legit in eo apérte in platéa... et aures omnis pópuli erant eréctæ
+ad librum" — Esdras reading the law plainly, all ears attentive), V. from v.9 ("Dies sanctificátus
+est Dómino, Deo nostro: nolíte lugére et nolíte flere" — user's pick, offered against v.6's "Amen,
+Amen" and v.10's "Ite, comédite pínguia," for the contrast between the plain reading and the
+proclaimed holy day of no mourning). Both Latin lines taken verbatim from the same accented Missa
+Lectio; English from the project's own verified `src/data/scripture/2esdr-8.yml`, not retranslated.
+Keyed `2esdr:` in the pool (not `neh:`) since that's what `BOOK_ALIASES` maps `neh` to.
+
+67 of 72 seeded. Remaining 5: Josue, Judices, 1-2 Chronicles (no citation anywhere at all) plus
+`ezra` (one thin, ambiguous near-miss, deliberately left unseeded — see the entry above).
+
+### Matins responsory pools: `1esdr` (Ezra) — composed, no liturgical precedent (2026-09-05)
+
+User-directed: compose Ezra's own responsory from 1 Esdras 8:21-23, on the verse's own merit — like
+`ruth`, not like `bar`/`2esdr`, since the one candidate lead for this book (`Pasc7-2.txt`'s Introit,
+see the earlier `ezra`/`neh` entry) turned out to be a text mismatch, not a real match to build from.
+
+v.22'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 the strongest material, but the Vulgate's own
+clause order puts the wrath half last — a sour note to end the repeated (`*`) clause on, especially
+right before v.23's "it fell out prosperously." Edited: swapped the two halves of v.22 so the hopeful
+clause is the one repeated after V. — same words, no invention, just reordered for the R./V./R. shape.
+V. is v.23 unaltered.
+
+Source (`1esdr-8.yml`) has no accents, like `ruth-1.yml`; Latin hand-accented, cross-checked
+word-by-word against already-accented occurrences elsewhere in the corpus (`impérium`, `fortitúdo`,
+`derelínquunt`, `bonitáte`, `jejunávimus`, `próspere`). Keyed `1esdr:` (`BOOK_ALIASES` maps `ezra` to
+it). `npm test` (2029 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass; live-verified through
+`getBiblePlanReadings` (`easter-sunday`/Monday resolves real, correctly R./V.-formatted text in both
+languages for `Ezra 3-4`).
+
+68 of 72 seeded. This closes every book with any real sourceable material — the remaining 3 (Josue,
+Judices, 1-2 Chronicles) have no citation anywhere, Horas or Missa, and no scripture text of their
+own has been composed from on its own merit the way `ruth`/`ezra` were, since that hasn't been
+directed for them yet (Josue itself got exactly this treatment shortly after — see the dated entry
+below).
+
+### Matins responsory pools: `jos` (Josue) — composed, no liturgical precedent (2026-09-05)
+
+User-directed: compose Josue's own responsory from Josue 24:15-16, on the verse's own merit — like
+`ruth`/`1esdr`, since Josue has no citation anywhere in the reference source at all, Horas or Missa
+(re-confirmed live: every "Josue" hit in the corpus is an incidental mention of the person inside
+unrelated books' readings — Ambrose's *De Officiis* homily, 1-2 Kings — never the Book of Josue's
+own text).
+
+The verse pair is already a two-voice exchange — Joshua's challenge to Israel ("choose you this day
+... but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord") and the people's reply — mapping directly
+onto R./V. form with no invented content, just split at the natural seam. Asterisk placed before
+"Ego autem", so the full choice-clause is R. and the famous declaration is the repeated close; V. is
+v.16 kept whole, including "Respondítque pópulus, et ait" (not trimmed for the change of speaker,
+since R./V. form doesn't make that redundant here — the narrative frame still matters).
+
+Source (`jos-24.yml`) has no accents, like `ruth-1.yml`/`1esdr-8.yml`; Latin hand-accented,
+cross-checked word-by-word against already-accented occurrences elsewhere in the corpus (`vidétur`,
+`Dómino`, `elígite`, `hódie`, `potíssimum`, `servíre`, `debeátis`, `serviérunt`, `Mesopotámia`,
+`habitátis`, `serviémus`, `Respondítque`, `pópulus`, `relinquámus`, `serviámus`, `aliénis`); `óptio`
+left unaccented (2 syllables, no precedent either way, but this project's own accenting convention
+never marks a 2-syllable word). `Amorreorum` kept in the spelling `jos-24.yml`'s own bulk import
+uses (no `h`, single `r`) rather than the Clementine `Amorrhæórum` spelling found elsewhere in the
+corpus (Ps 134/135), since that's this book's own source-text tradition, not a typo to "fix" toward
+the more familiar spelling.
+
+Keyed `jos:` (`BOOK_ALIASES` maps `josh` to this canonical id) — not `josue`, which would silently
+miss every lookup. `npm test` (2029 passed) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass; live-verified through
+`getBiblePlanReadings` (`easter-4`/Sunday resolves real, correctly R./V.-formatted text in both
+languages for `Josh 1`).
+
+69 of 72 seeded. Remaining 3 (Judices, 1-2 Chronicles) have no citation anywhere, Horas or Missa,
+and no scripture text of their own has been composed on its own merit yet.
+
+### Matins responsory pools: `jdc` (Judges) — composed, no liturgical precedent (2026-09-05)
+
+User-directed: compose Judges' own responsory from Gideon's trumpet-and-pitchers stratagem at the
+camp of Madian (Jdc 7:17-20), on the verse's own merit — like `jos`, since Judges has no citation
+anywhere in the reference source at all, Horas or Missa.
+
+Considered and set aside: the Song of Deborah's closing benediction (Jdc 5:31) has no natural second
+verse to pair with it without inventing one; Samson's dying prayer (Jdc 16:28-30) was set aside as an
+uncomfortable emphasis for a Matins responsory (a prayer for strength to kill himself with his
+enemies). Gideon's cry won out as the single most recognizable line in the book, and — like
+`ruth`/`jos` before it — the passage is already a command/fulfillment structure that maps directly
+onto R./V. form: R. is v.17-18 (Gideon's command to the three hundred men); V. is v.19-20's
+fulfillment, trimmed to its own core clause (dropped v.20's "in tribus locis... hydrias
+confregissent" middle as restating what "conplodere lagoenas" already said), landing the versicle
+directly on the iconic cry itself: "Gladius Domini, et Gedeonis."
+
+Source (`jdc-7.yml`) has no accents, like `jos-24.yml`; Latin hand-accented, cross-checked
+word-by-word against already-accented occurrences elsewhere in the corpus (`vidéritis`, `fácite`
+— matching the "Hoc fácite" idiom's own established accenting — `ingrédiar`, `sectámini`,
