# Maps a calendar day (MM-DD — the sanctoral cycle repeats every civil year
# regardless of weekday, unlike the temporal cycle) to the saint-id(s)
# celebrated that day. This indirection is the whole point: to move a saint
# to a different day, edit this mapping. The saint's own record
# (data/calendar/saints/<id>.yml) never changes — it's the same record
# whichever day points at it.
#
# A small, growable subset, not a full year — see the plan discussion this
# came out of. Each entry's rank is verified directly against Divinum
# Officium (see the saint's own file for which one) rather than
# reconstructed from memory, unlike data/calendar/temporal-categories.yml's
# privileged-day lists. `example-confessor` is deliberately NOT mapped to
# any day here — it's fictional, kept only to document the record shape.
days:
  # January — first month of the pre-1955 pull (see the saint files' own
  # comments for source/verification detail per entry). Deliberately
  # excludes: pure octave-continuation days (In Octava S. Stephani, the
  # several "die infra Octavam Epiphaniae" days, etc. — not sanctoral,
  # out of scope per the Non-goals discussion) and fixed-date feasts of
  # the Lord/BMV (Circumcision Jan 1, Epiphany Jan 6 — temporal, not
  # sanctoral, and not modeled by this app at all yet, a separate gap).

  # August — 8/12 of the pre-1955 pull. Four pre-existing entries from
  # before this pull initiative (vigil-of-st-lawrence, st-lawrence,
  # assumption, st-augustine) got their propers backfilled this month; see
  # their own files. A genuinely new wrinkle this month: several dates
  # have a real, named secondary saint permanently subordinate to a
  # fixed, non-movable *octave* day (Lawrence's own Aug 10-17 octave, the
  # Assumption's Aug 15-22 octave) -- octaves aren't modeled by this app
  # (a known, explicitly deferred gap; see "Octave content" in TODO.md),
  # so unlike the "genuinely unwinnable stub" pattern used elsewhere
  # (where both competitors ARE modeled and the engine can correctly show
  # the subordination), these can't be represented without incorrectly
  # letting them win outright. Excluded entirely rather than guessed at:
  # Ss. Tiburtius and Susanna (Aug 11), St. Clare (Aug 12 -- notable: a
  # genuinely major saint, not an obscure one, caught by this same gap),
  # Ss. Hippolytus and Cassian (Aug 13), St. Agapitus (Aug 18), Ss.
  # Timothy/Hippolytus/Symphorian (Aug 22). Our Lady of the Snows (Aug 5)
  # and the Transfiguration (Aug 6) were also excluded here at first,
  # each under a stale "fixed BVM/Lord feast, not modeled" note -- wrong,
  # corrected 2026-08: both have real, complete content, and this app
  # already models three other fixed BVM feasts the same way (assumption,
  # immaculate-conception, nativity-bvm) -- see our-lady-of-the-snows.yml
  # and transfiguration.yml's own headers. Added below. Ss.
  # Xystus/Felicissimus/Agapitus, formerly excluded here as subordinate
  # to an unmodeled Transfiguration, are still excluded -- now blocked by
  # the same real octave/subordination-rendering gap as St. Clare et al.

  # are real named secondaries still excluded for the same reason St.

  # 2026-08 alongside the rest of the full-year sanctoral import (see
  # ss-protus-and-hyacinth.yml): the octave-window exclusion was never a
  # real rule, just an earlier gatekeeping habit this app has since moved
  # away from (see vu-feedback-import-available-content memory). St.
  # Hadrian (Sep 8) is the one exception -- he's blocked by the
  # Nativity's own day, not its octave, and that day IS already a mapped
  # sanctoral entry, so the ordinary collision engine handles him
  # correctly. The Exaltation of the Holy Cross (Sep 14) was also
  # excluded here at first, same "fixed feast of the Lord" reasoning as
  # the Finding of the Holy Cross -- wrong, corrected 2026-08 alongside
  # it (see exaltation-of-the-holy-cross.yml). St. Nicholas of Tolentino
  # (Sep 10) and St. Januarius (Sep 19)

  # Tridentinum 1617" (not even a commemoration), and that file's own
  # [Rank] block has no untagged/default entry for this date, only
  # rubric-tagged alternates (tridentina, cisterciensis). The already-
  # correctly-pulled May 8 Apparition of St. Michael (see
  # apparition-of-st-michael.yml) may be this tradition's only real
  # Michaelmas. Kept mapped here anyway as a deliberate, informed
  # simplification (explicit user decision, 2026-08), not an oversight --

  # day) hit the same unmodeled-octave gap as several saints in August/
  # September. The Dedication of the Basilica of the Most Holy Savior
  # (Nov 9, i.e. the Lateran) and the Presentation of the BVM (Nov 21,

  # demoting St. Pontian; St. Silvester, Abbot (Nov 26) displaces St.
  # Peter of Alexandria. Plus All Saints of the Benedictine Order (Nov
  # 13, Duplex II. classis) -- absent from the base table entirely, one
  # of the highest-ranked monastic-only additions in this whole pull.
  #
  # Also notable: St. Clement (Nov 23) transferring forward into St.
  # Chrysogonus's day (Nov 24) whenever Nov 23 falls on a Sunday is this
  # pull's first *single-day* transfer-plus-collision case (unlike
  # August's Finding-of-St.-Stephen situation, which needed an unmodeled
  # multi-day skip) -- this app's existing transfer machinery handles it
  # correctly; see tests/calendar/november-sanctoral.test.ts.
  "11-01": [all-saints]
  # Nov 2 (All Souls' Day) deliberately excluded from this full-year
  # sanctoral sweep: it's a Requiem office (own psalms, no Te Deum,
  # three full nocturns of Job readings), not a normal saint's office
  # -- a genuine mechanism gap, not an oversight. See
  # vu-sanctoral-sweep-progress memory.

  # December — 12/12, the final month of the pre-1955 pull. Every
  # non-excluded date this month falls within a season this app now
  # models as `privileged-feria-minor` (Advent through Dec 20, Christmas's
  # own Octave from Dec 26) -- this month's own pull is what surfaced and
  # verified that temporal-category fix (see calendar/types.ts and this
  # repo's commit history). Immaculate Conception's own propers were
  # backfilled this month. Excluded: Dec 24 (Vigil of Christmas) and Dec
  # 25 (Christmas itself) aren't sanctoral entries at all -- Christmas is
  # a fixed-date temporal anchor (see data/calendar/fixed-date-
  # calendar.yml) and its Vigil is a distinct privileged-feria-major
  # temporal category, neither modeled as a saint. St. Eusebius of
  # Vercelli (Dec 15) is a monastic-calendar-specific placement, reached
  # via a same-day redirect notation in M1617.txt rather than a plain
  # date entry. The Vigil of St. Thomas (Dec 20) always lands on Advent's
  # Ember Saturday -- a known Mass-vs-Office simplification, same pattern
  # as September's Vigil of St. Matthew.
