Editing a mention added a second timeline entry on the referenced issue, because the lookup skipped neutered rows and the match compared the reference action. Removing and re-adding a mention, or changing "closes #1" to a plain "#1", left the old row behind and inserted a new one. Match on the target issue alone and write the new action to the row that already exists, so one entry survives every edit, as on GitHub. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5

Maybe it's better to go for per-issue dedup. Initial investigation shows that it may require a migration, that's why I put it off. |

Don't duplicate issue cross-references when editing a comment. It dedupes per-comment, GitHub dedupes per-issue which would be a much bigger rewrite that I will leave for later.
