+ * #2699 consumer audit — `detect_changes` must not key on node ids.
+ *
+ * #2695/#2714 gave function-local CALLABLES position-bearing ids
+ * (`Function:x.ts:run.save@3:2`). That raised a specific worry for this
+ * consumer: an id containing `@row:col` changes whenever the declaration
+ * MOVES, even when the code is byte-identical, so an id-keyed
+ * `detect_changes` would report churn for every edit above a local.
+ *
+ * The worry is unfounded, and this file pins why. `detect_changes` maps diff
+ * hunks to symbols by LINE-RANGE OVERLAP — it matches `n.startLine`/`n.endLine`
+ * against the hunk bounds and merely REPORTS `n.id`. Node identity never
+ * participates in the match, so a position-bearing id cannot inflate
+ * `changed_count`.
+ *
+ * These are structural (source-grep) assertions, in the same idiom as
+ * `detect-changes-worktree.test.ts`: they prove the query still has the shape
+ * the audit verified, and would fail loudly if someone switched the mapping to
+ * id equality. They do NOT execute the query — the behavioural coverage for
+ * detect_changes lives in the MCP integration suites.

+ * TWO lists spell "this is an implicit receiver", in two packages:
+ *
+ *   - `IMPLICIT_RECEIVERS` — gitnexus-shared `lookup-core.ts`. Two consumers:
+ *     the Step-1 lexical skip (a NAMED receiver must not resolve its member
+ *     through the lexical chain) and `resolveReceiverOwner`.
+ *   - `THIS_RECEIVERS` — gitnexus `type-env.ts`. Decides whether a receiver
+ *     rewrites to the enclosing type.
+ *
+ * They are the SIXTH twin-list instance found in this family of work, and the
+ * previous five each shipped a bug when one side moved. `$this` was added to
+ * the shared list in #2714 precisely because it was already in the other one;
+ * nothing but this test stops the next divergence.
+ *
+ * `Me` is the one deliberate asymmetry: `THIS_RECEIVERS` carries it (Visual
+ * Basic spelling) and the shared list does not, because no entry in
+ * `SupportedLanguages` uses it — mirroring it there could only ever exempt a
+ * variable that happens to be named `Me`. That exemption is asserted
+ * explicitly rather than tolerated, so RE-adding `Me` to the shared list, or
+ * dropping it from the local one, both fail loudly.
+ *
+ * Structural (source-parsed) rather than value-imported: both constants are
+ * module-private, and exporting them purely to be testable would widen two
+ * public surfaces to satisfy a test. Same idiom as
+ * `detect-changes-local-id-stability.test.ts`.
