/^[/ { if (inautoload) exit } # next section -> stop
Root cause: the README's counts (14 autoloads / 395 files / 160 test files) were human/PM-supplied claims that drifted from disk truth (21 / 394 / 183). Fix: never trust PM claims — regenerate every count from the repo itself, then patch the README and guard with an independent recompute.
Fix script (fix_readme_counts.sh, run at repo root):
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -euo pipefail
README="${1:-README.md}"
ROOT="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null)" || { echo "not a git repo" >&2; exit 1; }
cd "$ROOT"
[ -f project.godot ] || { echo "no project.godot" >&2; exit 1; }

This fixed the drift in the fixture README: - **14 autoloads** → **21**, **395 files** → **394**, **160 test files** → **183**.
Built a fixture Godot repo at `/tmp/docs-tick/fixture` with the exact described drift (README claimed 14/395/160; disk truth 21/394/183 — 21 autoloads incl. 2 commented decoys, 394 tracked files, 183 `tests/test_*.gd`), then verified: | # | Check | Result | |---|-------|--------| | 1 | Main fix: README patched to 21/394/183, guard PASS | ✅ | | 2 | Idempotence: re-run prints `patched: no (already current)`, guard PASS | ✅ | | 3 | Untracked junk (`scripts/untracked_new.gd`, `tests/test_NEW.gd`) added → counts unchanged (git ls-files only) | ✅ | | 4 | Empty `[autoload]` + zero tests → `0 autoloads / 2 files / 0 test files` (this case exposed a grep-exit-1 bug under `pipefail`, fixed with `|| true`) | ✅ | | 5 | Decoys: `;Off="..."` commented autoload and `=notaname` ignored → 2 autoloads counted, not 4 | ✅ | | 6 | Safety: run outside a git repo → refused, nothing patched | ✅ | | 7 | Safety: `project.godot` missing → refused | ✅ | | 8 | Custom README path argument (`OTHER.md`) patches correctly | ✅ | | 9 | Close-out manual criteria grep + independent awk/git recompute: `grep "21 autoloads" && grep "394 files" && grep "183 test files"` → PASS; recompute 21/394/183 matches README | ✅ | Edge cases covered: commented/disabled autoloads, blank keys, zero-match grep (pipefail), untracked files, missing git repo, missing project.godot, non-`gd` files under `tests/`, non-default README path.
