…al ticks Cadence self-paced from ~1/min (during 22:08Z-22:22Z queue-saturating) down to zero shards 22:22Z-22:36Z. This is correct behavior during stable off-duty (no new substrate-worth-shipping each minute) — but a 1-hour zero-shard stretch would look indistinguishable from a dead loop in archaeology. This checkpoint shard distinguishes "stable off-duty" from "broken loop." Composes with holding-without-named-dependency-is-standing-by-failure.md: the aggregate-Holding-pattern catch fires even when each tick names a real dependency. Substantive substrate breaks the pattern without scope-creeping during off-duty. Aaron's named dependency unchanged. Cron sentinel a45af567 armed. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Pull request overview
Adds a hygiene-history tick checkpoint documenting the stable off-duty state and why a periodic shard distinguishes intentional quiet from a stalled loop.
Changes:
- Adds a new 22:36Z tick-history checkpoint.
- Records off-duty dependency state, cadence observations, and visibility notes.
- Notes a stale local untracked file as observational context.

Summary
holding-without-named-dependency-is-standing-by-failure.mdWhy this shard exists
A 1-hour zero-shard stretch would look indistinguishable from a dead loop in tick-history archaeology. A periodic checkpoint distinguishes "stable off-duty" from "broken loop."
