Outcome

Qodo's pass on 86b964b posted a real-review marker (created 20:56:50Z, after the 20:53:27Z trigger), cleared its summary to Bugs (0) / Rule violations (0) / Skill insights (0), and left zero unresolved threads. Quorum 1/1. CI green, base an ancestor of head, MERGEABLE / CLEAN, not draft, no blocking labels.

Findings across four rounds

Round	Finding	Disposition
1	Regex version match	fixed — abeb632
1	Non-atomic changelog write	wontfix — documented deliberate trade at stamp-changelog.sh:75-77
1	test-stamp-changelog.sh uses bash shebang	wontfix — tests/ is bash by convention and by tooling; the file reads ${BASH_SOURCE[0]}
2	Wrong helper script resolved	wontfix — $0 premise disproven by measurement; suggested fix implemented, tested, reverted as unreachable
3	Helper lookup test masked	fixed — 86b964b
3	Unchecked release_dir assignment	fixed — 86b964b, by deletion

Commits landed by this runner: abeb632, ba08193, 86b964b.

Loop-health note

Rounds 2 and 3 were spent on code this runner introduced, not on the original change. Round 3's two findings were both correct: the round-2 test inherited its PATH framing from round 2's disproven finding and claimed more than it proved. Round 4 was declared the last unattended round before handing back; it returned clean.

No qodo_wontfix_items were ever recorded. The summary blocks for the declined items carry no stable citation fingerprint, and the Qodo adapter forbids a title-only identity because it could mask a sibling finding. Qodo struck each of them itself, so nothing needed suppressing.

Round 2 disposition — 1 new Qodo finding on the round-1 fix

Qodo's pass on abeb632 flagged dirname "$0" as CWD-relative under a PATH invocation, which would let the script miss parse-version.sh or run an unintended one.

Declined on measured evidence. The repo-convention half was accurate — build-artifacts.sh:21 and benchmark/run.sh:8 do use CDPATH='' cd -- … && pwd. The $0 premise was not: under a PATH invocation the shell execves the resolved absolute path, which the kernel hands to the interpreter, so $0 already carries the real directory. Only sh script.sh from the script's own directory yields a bare $0, where . is already correct.

I implemented the suggested fix first and tested it against the decoy case before and after — identical results, which is what prompted checking the premise. Reverted rather than carry an unreachable branch, which also keeps this consistent with bump-pins.sh:42.

Kept: a test in ba08193 that invokes through PATH from an unrelated directory with a decoy parse-version.sh, asserting the real sibling wins. That lookup only became load-bearing in round 1.

Round 3 dispositions — 2 new Qodo findings, both fixed

Qodo's pass on ba08193 returned a marker and two new findings, both against the test added in round 2.

Helper lookup test masked — fixed. The better catch of the two. The test put the real scripts/release on PATH so the script could be named bare, which meant a regression to a bare parse-version.sh would still find the real helper there. The decoy only bit the ./ shape. Now invokes "$STAMP" by absolute path with $decoy_dir on PATH instead. Verified by mutation:

Resolves via	Result
"$script_dir/parse-version.sh" (baseline)	passes
parse-version.sh (bare, PATH)	fails
./parse-version.sh (CWD)	fails

The bare-PATH row passed before this change.

Unchecked release_dir assignment — fixed by deletion. Accurate: the suite runs set -uo pipefail with no set -e, so a failed cd would have left the variable empty. The masked-decoy fix removed the line's only use, so the command substitution went with it.

Both findings were on runner-authored test code, which is worth naming: the round-2 test inherited its PATH framing from a round-2 finding whose premise turned out to be wrong. Qodo's read of what it actually proved was correct.
