Fixes #1793

What

archive_bot writes fields['flybot-tree'].retired = true, and the sidebar's own tree (forestOf, plugins/tree/client.js:289) already skipped such a Bot — but the tree panel's treeOf (:17) never read retired, so the Bot stayed drawn as a working member, while archivedOf (:491) only looked at archived or a 归档-/Archive- name, so it was in neither list. Retiring a Bot from the core looked like it did nothing in the tree UI, and its chat had no way back from the Archive.

treeOf now takes the same one-line retired === true skip as forestOf; archivedOf also accepts a retired Bot, and statusOf gives it the retired tag (a record that also carries archived keeps its archived/archived · merged into <name> tag). plugins/tree/ is outside the patch chain: git status shows no patches/ change and node scripts/ds-bot-patches.mjs generate was not run.

Tip

• head b6e72873e0dd005295d0147aa21860c806989579
• tree 4bbb000f991a9ae879585347c4cc9892278525aa
• base 7b8f81e15a803d54a13fe32d2c0bc2119e7f9333 (live main at push time — main moved twice while this branch was being built, and the branch was rebuilt on the newest tip each time with no file overlap; the pushed head's tree is 4bbb000f, the same tree verified below). The issue names 92a4cf262cb8, which is no longer in the upstream object store (git cat-file -t 92a4cf26 fails, origin/main is now past 7b8f81e1) — main was rewritten upstream and the merge commit at that sha is gone, so the branch is cut from the current live tip.
• 4 files, +49/−2: plugins/tree/client.js +9/−2, plugins/tree/test/archived-section.test.js +37, docs/subsystems/tree.md +1/−1, changelog.d/1793-tree-retired-archived.fixed.md +1 (new).

Red first

On live main (2213b4ca), with a probe over the existing archived-section.test.js harness (plugins/tree/test/probe-retired.test.js, carried only until the committed cases replaced it), node --import ./test/resolve.mjs --test test/probe-retired.test.js:

# Archived section lists: []
# Tree panel draws: ["Chief","Retired Dev"]
not ok 1 - probe: a Bot retired by archive_bot leaves the tree and is listed as retired

With the fix the same probe lists ["Retired Dev"] and draws ["Chief"]. The committed cases are #1793: a retired Bot leaves the tree and opens from the Archived section with a retired tag (the panel and forestOf agree, the row carries retired, and clicking it opens that chat) and #1793: retired and archived stay distinct, and both are listed.

Gates at this head

enqueue-guard at this tip says, verbatim:

do not enqueue #1796: no Verifier report names the tip b6e72873e0dd

Its summary adds the line: the head lives in a fork: the issue reference and agent-pr rules are not asked of it — so only the missing Verifier report refuses this head.

What I ran, at tree 4bbb000f99 (local commit 16ed9ee1, parent 7b8f81e1; the pushed head b6e72873 carries that same tree, checked through GET /commits/b6e72873):

• TZ=UTC ARCH_DOCS_BASE=7b8f81e15a80 npm run verify — exit 0: core 2141, social 539, tree 127, timeline 129, workflow 289, .github 549, interop 37, live-e2e 24, 0 failures; arch-docs: OK (4 changed file(s)); build-client --check clean
• git status — only the four files above; no patches/ change and no generate run

Not run: the smoke bench, the CI package job, and any push other than this branch.

maintainer_can_modify: true.

Review request for this tip: b6e72873e0dd005295d0147aa21860c806989579 needs a Verifier verdict naming it. At this head tests-ok is success, merge-gate passes; enqueue-guard refuses for exactly one reason — no Verifier report names the tip b6e72873e0dd. 4 files +49/-2, base 7b8f81e1, maintainer_can_modify: true, not a draft. Fixes #1793.

Verdict: PASS at b6e7287

Ran at this tip:

$ tar xzf 1796tip.tgz -C 1796tip --strip-components=1
$ cd 1796tip/plugins/tree && TZ=UTC npm test
# tests 127  # pass 127  # fail 0
$ cp 1796base/plugins/tree/client.js 1796red/plugins/tree/client.js && cd 1796red/plugins/tree && TZ=UTC npm test
# tests 127  # pass 125  # fail 2

Red first, at the same suite: with plugins/tree/client.js back at its base blob (7b8f81e1) and the tip's tests kept, not ok 5 - #1793: a retired Bot leaves the tree and opens from the Archived section with a retired tag and not ok 6 - #1793: retired and archived stay distinct, and both are listed are the only two failures (125/127). With the tip source it is 127/127.

• Scope: 7b8f81e1…b6e72873 is ahead 1 / behind 0, over exactly the 4 files the body names (+49/−2): plugins/tree/client.js, the new plugins/tree/test/archived-section.test.js, docs/subsystems/tree.md, changelog.d/1793-tree-retired-archived.fixed.md. Nothing under patches/, no CHANGELOG.md, no version bump.
• The fix is the one behaviour it claims: treeOf skips fields['flybot-tree'].retired === true the way the sidebar's forestOf already did, statusOf gives such a record the retired tag (an archived record keeps its archived/merged tag, since that branch is read first), and archivedOf now lists a retired Bot too, so its chat stays reachable from the Archived section. Test 5 pins the panel and forestOf to the same drawn set, the retired row tag and the click that opens the chat; test 6 pins retired vs archived · merged into <name> and that both are listed.
• Checks at this tip: 15 runs, all completed. The only failure is enqueue-guard, whose stated reason is exactly no Verifier report names the tip b6e72873e0dd — this report is that subject. tests-ok, merge-gate, package, plugins (tree|social|timeline|workflow), Node 24 · DSH 0.2.0-rc.2, risk tier (report only), reviewed tip (report only) and the agent-audience runs are success. mergeable: true, not a draft, maintainer_can_modify: true.
• Fork head (HugoXK/FlyBot): the guard asks neither Fixes # nor agent-pr of it, and the checkpoint/Owner/Reviewer body checks are exempt; the body carries Fixes #1793.
• Not run: the full npm run verify — the change touches only plugins/tree/, and that plugin's own suite is the affected suite, run both ways above. Smoke bench not applicable (no host boot path changed).
