sync SS3.3 L527-530 excludes shun-table names from the ordinary phantom scan. The predicate already existed and its call site hardcoded false; S5 supplies the durable state through a borrowed ShunSet whose .none identity leaves every existing construction site unchanged. The literal reading is kept: an igot for a shunned hash still CREATES the phantom (SS3.3 L511-514) -- it is simply never requested, so the phantom is inert and permanent.

Three consequences the reviews forced out:

A shunned phantom no longer counts as unresolved. It was told about and refused, not asked for and withheld; counting it made zit pull fail on every future pull, since the peer re-announces each round.

The server consults the set too. SS3.3 states the filter on the phantom scan without qualifying a side, and a server under push-receive is a receiver, so an inbound igot could otherwise walk a shunned artifact straight back in.

parseIgotCard now rejects a name that is not 40 or 64 hex, as parseGimmeCard already did (artifact-format SS3.2 L349-350). Widening the shun predicate to answer false for an out-of-domain name would have been the fail-open fix. check-in: 1c41f96e86 user: dmestas tags: shun-implementation
