After #705 and #723 two more workflow bodies still treated every failed
push as a moved dev: the SHIP-REVIEW publication (_ship-review.yml) retried
three times with "dev went ahead", and the derived-artifacts bot commit
(_beta-derived.yml) told the release manager to rerun the workflow. A
refusal by GitHub itself - a token without the workflow right, a branch
rule, a hook - is cured by neither, and neither step said what GitHub
answered.
Both pushes now keep stderr and hand it to the #705 classifier through the
same CLI (merge-candidate.mjs --push-refusal). A stale lease keeps the old
behaviour: another attempt for the ship review, the rerun advice for the
derived artifacts. Any other outcome stops the step at once: the log gets
the git answer and the step summary gets the reason and the git answer
without secrets (--summary, refusalSummary with the new ship-review and
beta-derived labels). The classifier comes from dev, as for the other steps
of these bodies: both jobs check out dev, and the ship review resets to
origin/dev before every attempt. The ship review commit message is built
line by line into a file instead of a heredoc, as in #723. The thin callers
ship-review.yml and beta-derived.yml are untouched.
The rebase guard in _process.yml also writes the refusal reason to its step
summary now (--summary, label "rebase"); a stale lease writes none.
test/publish-push-refusal.test.mjs runs both steps as they are with real
bash and real git in temporary repositories (moved dev = a real neighbour
push, GitHub refusal = recorded stderr with a token, a credential URL and
an Authorization header); on the old bodies 10 of its 12 new tests fail.
The #705 execution tests of the rebase guard in rebase-generated.test.mjs
now also read the step summary. PROCESS.md names the two steps next to the

`workflow_dispatch` runs the file from the chosen ref, but GitHub lists a
workflow and accepts a dispatch (button, `gh workflow run`, API) only when
its file exists on the default branch. `ship-review.yml` (#696) and
`beta-derived.yml` (#697) lived only in `dev`, so neither could be started
at all, and the comment "the file runs from `--ref dev`, no mirror in
`main` needed" was wrong. Both beta steps are needed before the next
promotion would bring them to `main`.
They now follow the #623 layout instead of a full copy in `main`: a thin
caller (trigger, dispatch inputs, run-name, permission ceiling, concurrency)
calls `_ship-review.yml` / `_beta-derived.yml` at `@dev` with
`secrets: inherit`. A full copy would either need a mirror on every edit or
drift silently, and a dispatch from `main` (the button's default) would run
the stale copy; the thin caller runs the dev body from any ref. The caller
ceiling is the union of the body jobs' permissions (#556): ship-review
`contents: read` + `issues: read`, beta-derived `contents: read` +
`actions: read`; writes to `dev` stay with HP_PROCESS_TOKEN as before.
`workflow_sync` in validate.yml now compares eight files, and
test/default-branch-workflows.test.mjs lists the two dispatch-only files
explicitly with the reason checked (only `workflow_dispatch`). Workflow
tests and the #697 provenance mutant read the bodies. PROCESS.md §10.4,
§8 and §11.7 say how these are run and that a new thin file is mirrored
into `main` before it is merged into `dev`.
