 ## [Unreleased]
+- Keep the PR #827 repair workflow
+  (`.github/workflows/repair-pr827-coderabbit-comments.yml`) and its driver
+  script (`scripts/ci/repair_pr827_coderabbit_comments.py`): a prior pass on
+  this same PR proposed removing them as dead code on the theory that
+  "GitHub never reuses PR numbers" makes `github.event.pull_request.number
+  == 827` permanently false. Devin Review correctly flagged that reasoning
+  as a red herring here — PR #827 is `closed`/`merged: false`/`locked:
+  false`, so it remains reopenable by anyone with write access (or its
+  author) and would keep its original number if reopened, and its exact
+  head branch (`fix/opencode-rust-coverage-runtime-boundary-main`) still
+  exists on the remote at the same SHA. The workflow and script are
+  restored unchanged; the synthetic-fixture test kept alive purely for the
+  100% coverage gate is restored with them.
