Pull request overview

Adds a new tick-history shard documenting a 2026-05-01 10:55Z autonomous-loop “pause-discipline operating” tick, capturing resolution notes for two PR threads while explicitly staying within existing v2 class vocabulary.

Changes:

• Add new tick-history shard at docs/hygiene-history/ticks/2026/05/01/1055Z.md.
• Record the tick’s timestamp/model/cron sentinel plus body, PR refs, and observations as a single-row shard entry.

[Copilot]

P1: This shard row includes a literal || inside the body cell. Unescaped | characters will be interpreted as extra column separators when these shard rows are later collated/rendered as a 6-column table, breaking the column alignment (and the current validator won’t catch it because it only enforces a minimum pipe count). Please escape literal pipes inside cells (e.g., use backslash-escaped pipes or replace with words like “double-pipe”).
