Frank 8af40c402b chore(agent): commit the machine tier and the doctrine text the checkout was already running
Landing blocker for #61 and #63: the deployment checkout is 12 commits behind and
`merge --ff-only` refuses while tracked paths are dirty. Discard is not available here
(workspace policy: no `checkout`/`stash` on shared state), so the dirt is committed.

- `agent/APPEND_SYSTEM.md`: the point-of-use / one-work-log / PR-link doctrine, already
  byte-identical to `origin/main` (`cmp` against the trunk blob: no difference). No new
  prose — the commit exists so the trunk merge can proceed.
- `agent/config.yml` and `agent/managed-skills/**`: the machine-live tier the heartbeat
  owns (AGENTS.md § Live-sync tiers).

`ALLOW_SECRETS=1` was used, deliberately and after auditing the staged diff by hand: the
only credential-shaped strings in it are two copies of `AKIA0000000000000EXAMPLE` — the
inert all-zero AWS example id — and they appear inside the two skill pages that teach
that exact placeholder shape. This checkout is still running the pre-#61 hook; the merged
gate (value-scoped placeholder filter, `71601f7`) exempts this value, so the refusal
dies with this landing. No `--no-verify` was used: the gate ran and its verdict is
recorded here.

description: "Merge a Dankclaw Gitea PR with form-encoded do=merge — and the two body failures: 422 [Do]: Required (JSON body) and jsontext invalid character 'd' (form body with Content-Type: application/json header)."
---
# Gitea merge on Dankclaw: form-encoded, and nothing else
`POST /api/v1/repos/<owner>/<repo>/pulls/<n>/merge` with `-d 'do=merge&merge_style=no-ff'`.
## The two body failures
1. **JSON body** → `422 {"message":"[Do]: Required"}`. The endpoint reads FORM fields, not JSON.
2. **Form body but a `Content-Type: application/json` header** (e.g. left over in the curl `-K` config file from an earlier PR-body PATCH on the same request setup) → `422 {"message":"[]: jsontext: invalid character 'd' at start of value"}` — Gitea tries to parse `do=merge...` as JSON.
## Working pattern
Keep TWO curl config files when a session both patches PR bodies (JSON) and merges (form):
```
# merge.cfg — auth ONLY, no Content-Type
header = "Authorization: token $TOKEN"
```
`curl -s -K merge.cfg -X POST -d 'do=merge&merge_style=no-ff' http://192.168.0.143:3000/api/v1/repos/<o>/<r>/pulls/<n>/merge`
- Success = **HTTP 200 with an empty body**; verify by landing a checkout (`git ls-remote origin main`), never by re-reading the PR.
- PATCH `/pulls/<n>` (title/body) is the opposite: JSON body WITH the Content-Type header.
- Token from `~/.config/secrets/gitea` via a 600-perm `-K` file, never `-H` (`/proc/<pid>/cmdline` is world-readable).
