 ## Operational notes
 
 - **Lior process returned mid-tick** (PID 52138) after one tick of being gone. Lower frequency than the 4-tick contention burst observed earlier, but still firing. Pre/post-commit ls-tree canary clean (53/53 root throughout).
 - The meta-loop pattern (Copilot catches new issues on just-merged PR; follow-up PR addresses them) is now a confirmed operational invariant: required-checks-only auto-merge produces async-review remediation cycles.
-- Borrow-on-existing pattern continues to work; `/private/tmp/zeta-tick-2210z` has been the primary borrow target across 7 ticks without rotation.
