Build the rules in ADR 0047's sections "A later status change" and "An edit to a decided record": how the sign-off rule treats a record that is superseded, deprecated, or edited after its decision.

Acceptance:

  • Tests against the live forge API and a test repo:
    • A record superseded by a decided record that links back passes with no new token.
    • A deprecated record passes only with ADR-DEPRECATE NNNN from a contributor who did not open the PR that set it.
    • An edit to a decided record fails until the token for its current status is posted after the PR that made the edit, by a contributor who did not open that PR.
    • The first decision keeps its author: a contributor who gave the first token and later superseded the record does not become its author.

Depends on #661. Decision record: ADR 0047.
