+- **A receipt carry with both a changed path and a moved-context path gets one scoped re-check instead of deadlocking.** founderstar#563 merged a base that took `SAVE_VERSION := 83` under the branch's reviewed `:= 84` and also moved a block next to a reviewed hunk. Carry called the constant file changed, J1's re-check refused because context had moved, and the scoped review opened only when nothing had changed, so every rules-number PR needed a fresh /ship. Now a hunk whose added lines are byte-identical and whose removed lines differ only by the base's edit of the lines the branch replaces counts as a context path, so carry and finish put it in the scoped-review packet for one reader and never carry it silently. When real changed paths and context paths come together, carry writes one packet: the range-diff, the changed paths' diff, then the context hunks. The existing 400-line and 64 KB caps count the whole packet, `range_diff_sha256` binds all of it, and the reader's record names `range_base`, which the carry reason logs. Past the caps, carry refuses as before. A changed path alone, or context paths alone, keep their routes with unchanged output, and a branch-side change to an added line still needs review. (GST-1561)

+**Changed and context paths together (GST-1561).** When the base also moved

+changed paths' diff, then the scoped-review sections of the context paths. The
+400-line and 64 KB caps count the whole packet, and `range_diff_sha256` binds
+all of it. The record also names `range_base`, the commit the reviewed range
+starts from (the fork point, or a landed stack parent), and the carry reason
+logs the context paths and that `range_base`. A context section over 200 lines,
+or a packet over the caps, prints `RECHECK: not eligible (<why>)` and stays
+`RECEIPT_CARRY_PRODUCT_CHANGED`. A changed path alone, or context paths alone,
+keep the routes above, and their output is unchanged.
+
+The same scoped review also covers a hunk whose only difference from the
+reviewed one is the base's edit of the lines the branch replaces. The base took
+`SAVE_VERSION := 83` while the branch's `:= 84` line, reviewed against `82`,
+stays byte-identical. The branch's added lines must match byte for byte, and
+the lines just outside the reviewed hunk's removed range must be lines the base
+kept, landing just outside the current hunk's range (`lib/ship-patch.ts`
+`comparePath`). The path then counts as a context path. Carry and finish put it
+in the scoped-review packet, and the reader checks that the branch's value
+still holds next to the base's. It never carries without a reader. A hunk whose
+added lines changed, that now also removes a line the base never touched, or
+whose range holds a line the base added (a base hunk at or next to the replaced
+lines that adds more lines than it removes) stays a changed path. A [mechanical retake](#mechanical-retake) does not apply
+here, since the branch retook nothing.

 **Rewritten history.** `write` records `head_tree` (the reviewed head's tree)
 and `product_patch_id` (its product patch against the base), and every carry
 rebinds both to the new head and keeps the earlier trees in `carry.trees`.
