`title: "Foo" — bar` opens with a quote and is not quoted; the previous
prefix check read it as already-quoted and left two notes broken. Probing
the value as the right-hand side of a mapping answers the real question —
does this load as written — and leaves anything that already parses alone,
whatever it parses into.
Repairs the last two quotable files in mathias/brain. Only wiki/index.md
remains unparseable, for an unrelated reason: a truncated UTF-8 sequence.

Hand-authored and promoted notes skip pipeline.BuildPages, so nothing
quotes their scalars. A title carrying an unescaped ": " yields a block
yaml.Unmarshal rejects, and every consumer that reads frontmatter drops
the note silently — 18 files repo-wide today, up from the 8 in #90.
frontmatter.Lint reports it; frontmatter.Fix quotes only what quoting can
rescue and refuses to return a document that still fails to parse, so an
unfixable file comes back byte-identical rather than half-repaired. Scan
walks a tree and reports an unreadable file as a finding instead of
aborting, so one poisoned note cannot hide the rest.
Sequence items are deliberately left alone: "- foo: bar" is valid YAML
that silently becomes a map, which is a type corruption rather than a
parse failure, and repairing it would rewrite notes that currently load.
task lint:frontmatter # report
