Reported by org-ops (census 08, R1) and re-measured here against the FORGE
rather than taken on their word: 3 install pins in the org, 1 dead.
`llm-ingestion-pipeline-security` pins ITSELF to `@v0.7.0`; that tag does not
exist, newest is v0.6.1. Anyone copying the single install command out of that
README gets a hard pip failure.
ERROR, not WARN: a dead documentation link costs a stranger a 404, a dead pin
costs them the install.
Not a duplicate of two checks it sits near. `LINK-DEAD` asks whether the repo
exists; `VERSION-TAG` reads the MANIFEST and asks whether that version was ever
tagged. All three land on guard today only because the same wrong number got
written in three places — a README pinning a bad ref in a repo with a correct
manifest is invisible to both.
Resolved against the forge, never the clone: a local tag can exist without
having been pushed, which portfolio-optimiser demonstrates directly. That uses
this session's decided acquisition model — `git ls-remote --tags` on the
register-derived https URL, anonymous, no API budget, and only for the repos a
README actually pins (nothing at all for the 19 that pin none).
A pin at a branch or a sha is a `byDesign` skip. `ls-remote --tags` cannot
answer it, and a loose pin is a different finding from a dead one.
The corpus sweep found a defect a unit test had not: offline, guard emitted the
SKIP *and* an OK reading "1 install pin(s) resolve against the forge" — a pass
asserted for a pin nothing had read. SKIP is never a pass. The OK now counts
only what was actually verified ("N of M"), and two tests pin it.
Measured before and after across all 21 clones: purely additive, no existing
finding moved. 19 repos emit PINS-NONE (OK — the check read the whole README
and found no subject), 2 emit real pins. Online, okf's 2 pins resolve and
guard's 1 does not: exactly one new ERROR org-wide, matching org-ops.
196 tests (was 187).
