Six workflows run from the default branch (issues, schedule, workflow_run):
process, process-resume, process-reconcile, mutation-gate, nightly,
process-metrics. Their bodies move to _<name>.yml (on: workflow_call); the
original files keep only triggers, run-name, permissions, concurrency and one
job `uses: Matysh/houseplan-card/.github/workflows/_<name>.yml@dev` with
`secrets: inherit`. A pipeline change becomes one commit to dev.
- caller job permissions = union of body job permissions (#556 minimum kept
per job inside the body); caller `if` repeats the body guard for process and
process-resume so unrelated events stay skipped;
- dispatch inputs forwarded via workflow_call inputs of the same names;
- _mutation-gate.yml keys evidence/marker on job.workflow_sha (the body SHA):
in a called workflow github.workflow_sha belongs to the caller in main;
- action-pins: narrow exception for this repo's _*.yml at @dev with a reason;
- preflight workflow_sync compares all six thin callers (was 3 of 6);
performance.yml excluded: its schedule judges main with main's own body;
- tests read bodies from _*.yml; new test/default-branch-workflows.test.mjs;
six mutants; PROCESS.md §10.4, AGENTS.md, REVIEWER.md updated.

scripts/merge-candidate.mjs owns the review pipeline's merge: when dev
moved during review, the rebased candidate is pushed to the issue branch,
its diff is compared to the reviewed one by patch-id, Validate on that SHA
is awaited, and only then dev is advanced with --force-with-lease on the
base the candidate was built on — a rejected lease restarts, at most three
times. Every non-merge outcome moves the label with a comment, so the
"label always changes" invariant holds. nightly.yml now finds the Validate
run it dispatched and inherits its conclusion. Three mutants guard this.

Validate ran three smoke shards, golden and performance_smoke on every push,
check-docs went red on any src/** change until screenshots were re-captured,
and a parallel bundle build made every second task branch fail to rebase.
None of these gates ever failed at review time; they fail before betas.
- `heavy` output in job `changes` (scripts/classify-changes.mjs): smoke,
smoke_done, golden, performance_smoke run only for a head commit with a
`Release:` trailer, `workflow_dispatch full=true` and pull requests.
- nightly.yml dispatches Validate on dev with full=true every night.
- check-docs `--screenshots=warn|strict`: freshness of the screenshot index
warns on a plain push, errors on the candidate; everything else still errors.
- publish-prerelease.yml and release.yml refuse a candidate without the
`Release:` trailer and (prerelease) require fresh screenshots — a green
Validate without the heavy jobs cannot pass for a release.
- scripts/rebase-on-dev.mjs: rebase on origin/dev taking dev's copy of the
committed bundle, rebuild with bundle:sync, amend; any other conflict aborts.
- npm run gate:small: mandatory PROCESS §8 part in one parallel run.
