test(scrape): add abort exit 134 skip smoke; plan 041 closure

Extend run-discord-scrape-smoke with skip-abort target so OOM/abort
channel skip from plan 040 has offline regression coverage. Update
merge-readiness for 2026-05-30 and KotOR validation retry in progress.

+title: feat: Abort-skip smoke and KotOR validation closure
+type: feat
+status: complete
+date: 2026-05-30
+origin: /lfg — close plan 040 R3/R4 with offline abort smoke and KotOR retry

+
+# feat: Abort-skip smoke and KotOR validation closure
+
+## Summary
+
+Plan 040 landed OOM/abort channel skip (exit 134/137/139) but lacked offline regression coverage and KotOR host re-validation. Add a fake-CLI abort case to `run-discord-scrape-smoke.sh`, re-run KotOR validation after image rebuild, and stamp merge-readiness when 9/9 or documented skip.
+
+## Requirements
+
+| ID | Requirement |
+|----|-------------|
+| R1 | `run-discord-scrape-smoke.sh` covers channel export exit 134 (abort) — target completes, accessible channel merges |
+| R2 | `DCE_MIN_FREE_MB=0 ./scripts/run-all-smokes.sh` — 19/19 pass |
+| R3 | Rebuild compose image; `run-operator-validation.sh --target KotOR_discord_msgs` completes (may skip `yes_general`) |
+| R4 | `docs/recurring-scrape-merge-readiness.md` updated with 2026-05-30 closure and KotOR row |
+| R5 | PR #1538 body notes plan 041 closure |
+
+## Files
+
+- `scripts/tests/run-discord-scrape-smoke.sh` — fake CLI channel `134` exits 134; `skip-abort` target
+- `docs/recurring-scrape-merge-readiness.md` — host validation table
+- `docs/plans/2026-05-30-040-fix-skip-oom-channel-export-plan.md` — mark R3/R4 complete when done
+
+## Test scenarios (R1)
+
+1. Two-channel target: channel `111` exports; channel `134` fake CLI exits 134 with abort stderr
+2. Scrape exits 0; destination for `111` has appended messages
+3. No fallback `channels/134.json` created
+4. Run summary includes SKIPPED for channel 134
+
+## Verification
+
+```bash
+./scripts/tests/run-discord-scrape-smoke.sh
+DCE_MIN_FREE_MB=0 ./scripts/run-all-smokes.sh
+docker compose build   # or podman-compose build
+DCE_MIN_FREE_MB=0 ./scripts/run-operator-validation.sh --target KotOR_discord_msgs \
+  --log-file logs/kotor-retry-20260530.log
+```
+
+## Risks
+
+- `yes_general` may take ~35 min before abort; validation log is authoritative
+- Large merges need ~22 GiB free on `/home`
+
+## Out of scope
+
+- Increasing container memory for full `yes_general` export
+- New `/lfg` feature work beyond closure
