## Problem

A manual `crow pipeline create` instantiates **every** file in `.crow/`, and a declared variable default is applied even when the run never passed that variable. A gate is therefore only a gate if its default matches nothing.

#155 fixed the three pipelines that had no manual gate at all. It missed that a *permissive default* leaves a pipeline just as exposed. Demonstrated the expensive way: creating a pipeline with only

```
--var weekly_audit_missing=alpine-324-amd64
```

also started `build-all-versions` — because its gate `target_arch` defaults to `amd64`, which matches its own amd64 matrix rows — and `process-updates` across every row, because that gate defaults to `all`. The run was killed before any `Upload package indexes` step produced output and both alpine324 indices were verified unchanged, but `build-all-versions` uploads binaries and rewrites indexes, so the next one might not be caught in time.

Before:

| pipeline | gate | default | fired on an unrelated manual run |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `build-all-versions` | `target_arch` | `amd64` | amd64 rows — builds and uploads |
| `build-all-versions-install-deps` | `target_arch` | `amd64` | amd64 rows |
| `weekly-rebuild-missing` | `weekly_rebuild_missing` | `all` | every row |
| `weekly-audit-missing` | `weekly_audit_missing` | `all` | every row |
| `process-updates` | `process_cran_updates` | `all` | every row |
| `repair-built-stamp` | `repair_built_stamp` | `arm64` | arm64 rows |

`archive-missed-packages` was the one that behaved, because its gate variable is never declared and so matches nothing. That is the property this restores everywhere.

## What this changes

Each of the six gets a `none` option on its gate variable and defaults to it, so a manual run has to name its target explicitly. The reason is recorded next to the default, where someone would go to change it.

`none` is used rather than dropping the default so the expression always has a defined value to compare, instead of relying on undefined-variable semantics.

Cron triggers are untouched — they match on the `cron:` name, not the variable.

## Verification

`crow lint .crow/` reports all ten configs valid. Auditing every pipeline that accepts a manual event:

```
archive-missed-packages.yaml:        gate=task                    default=<none>
auto-apply-patches.yaml:             gate=auto_apply_patches      default='false'
build-all-versions-install-deps.yaml gate=target_arch             default=none
build-all-versions.yaml:             gate=target_arch             default=none
process-updates.yaml:                gate=process_cran_updates    default=none
repair-built-stamp.yaml:             gate=repair_built_stamp      default=none
trial-build-registry.yaml:           gate=trial_build_registry    default='false'
weekly-audit-missing.yaml:           gate=weekly_audit_missing    default=none
weekly-patch-proposals.yaml:         gate=weekly_patch_proposals  default='false'
weekly-rebuild-missing.yaml:         gate=weekly_rebuild_missing  default=none
```

Every gate now defaults to something that matches no matrix row.

## Problem

`repair-built-stamp.yaml` gated on `target_arch`:

```yaml
when:
  - event: manual
    evaluate: 'target_arch == "${ARCH}"'
```

That is the same variable `build-all-versions.yaml` and `build-all-versions-install-deps.yaml` gate on. A manual run passing `target_arch=arm64` to reach the repair therefore matched all three, so triggering a dry-run repair also queued a full arm64 rebuild.

I hit this triggering the alpine 3.22 dry run (pipeline 10706), which I killed. `crow pipeline ps` renders empty states on this version, so I could not confirm from the CLI whether the rebuild workflows started before the kill or only sat queued behind the running cron jobs; no output was attributable to them.

## Change

Gate on `repair_built_stamp` instead. Every other pipeline here already gates on a variable named after itself (`process_cran_updates`, `weekly_audit_missing`, `weekly_rebuild_missing`), and `target_arch` was the odd one out being shared by two.

The header now records the collision and the exact invocation, so the next pipeline added here does not repeat it.

## Verification

`crow lint` passes; `prek` clean.

Grep of every trigger condition in `.crow/` confirms `repair_built_stamp` is unique and that no other pipeline gates on `OS`, `OS_VERSION`, `R_VERSION` or `dry_run` alone:

```
archive-missed-packages.yaml:  task == "archive-missed-packages"
build-all-versions.yaml:       target_arch == "${ARCH}"
build-all-versions-install-deps.yaml: target_arch == "${ARCH}"
weekly-audit-missing.yaml:     weekly_audit_missing == ...
repair-built-stamp.yaml:       repair_built_stamp == "${ARCH}"
process-updates.yaml:          process_cran_updates == ...
weekly-rebuild-missing.yaml:   weekly_rebuild_missing == ...
```

## Note for whoever runs it

`crow pipeline create` against this instance returned HTTP 504 while still creating the pipeline. Retrying on that error duplicates the run: I created four before noticing. Verify with `pipeline ls` rather than trusting the exit status.

## Problem

`arm64/alpine321` and `arm64/alpine322` advertise a broken stamp:

```
arm64/alpine321 :: 22930  Built: R 4.4.0; NA; 2026-07-31 13:35:52 UTC; unix
arm64/alpine322 :: 24696  Built: R 4.5.0; NA; 2026-07-31 13:51:54 UTC; unix
```

The per-minor sub-slots (`contrib/4.4`, `4.5`, `4.6`) are affected too.
All 18 other slots are correct.

uvr matches the stamp's platform triple plus R minor to pick binary over source, so nothing matches `NA` and both slots silently serve as source-only, which is exactly the regression bincraft#85 added the stamp to prevent.
`install.packages()` is unaffected, since it reads `Built:` from each tarball's own `DESCRIPTION`.
The tarballs are fine (`arm64/alpine322/.../dress.graph_0.8.3.tar.gz` carries `aarch64-unknown-linux-musl`), and so is the R that built them (`r-4.5.0_1_aarch64.apk` ships `R_PLATFORM='aarch64-unknown-linux-musl'`).
Only the index is wrong.

bincraft#96 stops a stamp like this being written again, but it cannot repair what is already there.

## Why not just re-run the index update

`upload_package_index()` reuses the slot's remote `PACKAGES.db`, and cranlike's `update_db()` only reparses files whose md5 changed, so entries already in the database keep the stamp they were written with.

Dropping `PACKAGES.db` to force a full reparse does work, and it is what bincraft#85's rollout note suggested, but for an S3 repo cranlike reads each package's metadata from the CRAN *source* mirror on GitHub.
A 25k-entry slot is then 25k requests to raw.githubusercontent.com, with a real risk of being rate-limited part-way through and leaving the slot half-written.

Only the `Built` column is wrong, so this corrects it in place instead: patch the column in `PACKAGES.db`, put the database back, and let `upload_package_index()` re-emit `PACKAGES*` from it.
`update_db()` always rewrites the index files even when nothing was reparsed, so no tarball is re-read and nothing is fetched from GitHub.

## Change

- `local/repair-built-stamp.R` — repairs the generic slot plus every per-minor sub-slot. Dry-run by default; `--apply` writes. The replacement comes from `bincraft::built_stamp()` under the R running the script, so it is exactly what a healthy run would have written, and bincraft#96's guard makes a broken build image fail rather than write a second bad stamp.
- `.crow/repair-built-stamp.yaml` — manual pipeline, routed by `target_arch` to the matching agent group and platform image, with `dry_run` defaulting to `true`.
- `.crow/archive-missed-packages.yaml` — drop the two `alpine321` matrix entries. Alpine 3.21 is EOL: the website advertises only 3.23/3.24 and `process-updates.yaml` already dropped it, so that slot is retired rather than repaired.

## Verification

`crow lint .crow/` passes on all nine pipelines.
`air format` and `jarl check` are clean; the script parses, and the `/opt/R` minor-version derivation was checked against `4.4.3 / 4.5.3 / 4.6.0 / current` → `4.4 4.5 4.6`.
The repair itself is unrun by design — it needs B2 credentials and an arm64 agent.

## Rollout

1. Cut a bincraft release so `local/install-bincraft.R` picks up #96 (it resolves the latest `vX.Y.Z` tag, and #96 is only on `main`).
2. Run this pipeline with `target_arch=arm64`, `OS=alpine`, `OS_VERSION=3.22`, `R_VERSION=4.5.3`, `dry_run=true` and check the reported counts.
3. Re-run with `dry_run=false`.
4. Confirm: `curl -sS https://cran.devxy.io/arm64/alpine322/latest/src/contrib/PACKAGES | grep '^Built:' | sort | uniq -c`

`arm64/alpine321` is deliberately left alone.
