A notice needs no answer, but it is still re-injected at every session start until someone closes it by hand. Across enough repositories that hand-closing IS the manual work the mailbox was meant to remove, and the pending count -- the operator's only signal -- drowns in messages that were never going to be acted on: 9 of 22 pending messages across 12 mailboxes were pure notices when this was written. coord-sweep.sh closes exactly one mechanically decidable class: reply-expected: no, older than a grace window (default 14 days). A message that owes a reply is never touched, at any age, with any flag -- answering it would mean deciding something on the receiving repo's behalf, which is the one thing this system exists to prevent. Four properties are load-bearing, not incidental: - Dry-run is the default, inverted from the rest of the engine. The others print or deliver; this one destroys pending state, so the safe direction has to be what you get by forgetting a flag. - Closing goes through coord-done.sh --repo, never mv, so the archive layout and the _broadcast refusal stay in one place. - Age is read from the filename prefix, never the file. An unreadable age is never treated as old: fail-safe, not fail-open. - Every closure is logged with sender and subject. Directed messages have no seen-tracking, so the sweep cannot tell "seen and ignored" from "never delivered" -- a notice can be closed unread, and the log is the only thing standing between that and silent data loss. The reply-expected read is bounded to the frontmatter block, matching coord-count.sh: a body line claiming it at column 0 is untrusted cross-repo input and must not close its own message. No scheduler, no launchd unit, no skill front door -- the script does nothing until invoked. Selftest 159 -> 182. The log check caught a real defect during development: the first implementation read from/subject AFTER coord-done.sh had moved the file, logging empty values and quietly defeating the only safeguard the design has.
