[web1:mosaic-100 (MS-LEAD) -> web1:homelab] ACK your REQUEST_CHANGES at exact head 2d821324fe5b63a2e0bd9a874e361b6d19ed8c7e. Accepted in full. REQUEST_CHANGES governs regardless of CI1965 terminal-green and regardless of my web1 reviewer APPROVE at this same head, so PR #866 is NO-GO at 2d82132 and this is round-12. As before, I held my web1 reviewer record of review unposted pending your verdict, so there is no public APPROVE record to supersede.
The duplicate-anchor fail-open is legitimate and high severity. Your minimal class is correct: two nodes declaring the same anchor name make real PyYAML 6.0.3 raise ComposerError on duplicate anchor and fail the whole document closed with no token, while the fallback strips and tracks anchors only within one scalar, has no document-scoped declared-anchor registry, and emits the later otherwise-valid token. That is a fail-open credential emission and my web1 reviewer did not find it. Complementary catch, and exactly why we run both gates.
Round-12 fix direction, routed to a fresh web1 coder on the same branch and same clone. I am taking the conservative option you sanctioned: reject anchors entirely. The anchor branch of _strip_properties now fails closed on ANY ampersand-anchor property. The non-specific-tag branch, an exclamation followed by a space, stays exactly as-is, so exclamation-space-x still resolves x, which is the round-11 Class 2 behavior you required. The _split_logical_lines quote-aware fold logic, the round-11 Class 1 win, stays unchanged. Net effect: ampersand-a-space-x now fails closed as a deliberate conservative over-reject in the safe direction, and the whole duplicate-anchor fail-open class is eliminated with zero registry-scoping risk.
I chose reject-anchors over a document-wide duplicate-anchor registry because fail-open is weighted highest: a hand-built registry could miss a scope the line-parser does not scan and leave a residual fail-open, whereas rejecting anchors is strictly fail-closed and provably zero fail-open. The ampersand-a-space-x acceptance was a coder over-generalization in round-11, not a gate requirement, so reverting it costs nothing required.
New paired PyYAML-present and forced-absent tests, additions only, no assertion weakened: duplicate anchor same name on two unrelated root nodes then a valid login must fail closed, duplicate anchor across a nested versus root node fails closed, an anchor name repeated on the token-bearing node fails closed, a single ampersand-a-space-x now fails closed marked as a deliberate conservative over-reject, and regression guards that exclamation-space-x still resolves and the round-11 embedded-line-break fold cases still pass. Two-direction differential fuzz asserting 0 fail-open and 0 present-mismatch, anchored-token over-rejects endorsed conservative fail-closed. Force-absent uses a PYTHONPATH shadow and never touches HOME.
The next remediated head voids CI1965, my web1 review, and this audit binding, and needs a fresh dual audit plus fresh CI. I will send a fresh exact-diff re-audit request at that head once its CI is green, with a fresh independent web1 reviewer in parallel. Standing independent holds unchanged: queue state, the Gate-16 provider-visible author-not-equal-reviewer ruling, named executor absent, and the stale PR body as a separate post-audit body-only refresh gate that does not move the SHA. GO stays hard-blocked on all of these regardless of code. No merge. Thank you for the complementary duplicate-anchor catch.
