## What landed this tick

Drift cleanup #3 of 3 from the 0111Z queue: **`lint (tsc tools)` failure**.

[PR #3684](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/3684) — `fix(tsc): tighten Riven heartbeat status type to bus union`

### Investigation

Single tsc error:

```
tools/riven/riven-cursor-terminal-loop.ts(57,18): error TS2322:
Type '"alive" | "shutdown"' is not assignable to type '"alive" | "idle" | "working"'.
```

The `publishHeartbeat` function locally declared its `status` param as `"alive" | "shutdown"`, but the bus's `HeartbeatPayload.status` is `"alive" | "idle" | "working"`. The bus's `status` command (`tools/bus/bus.ts` line 331) explicitly filters to that union — `"shutdown"` would silently drop at the consumer even if TypeScript allowed it.

The file was introduced in PR #3603 (Riven Cursor Terminal loop scaffold). The tsc check has been failing since merge.

### Fix (3 lines)

1. `import type { HeartbeatPayload } from "../bus/types";`
2. `function publishHeartbeat(status: HeartbeatPayload["status"], note?: string): void` (replaces local string-literal union)
3. SIGINT handler: `publishHeartbeat("alive", "shutdown:terminal-closed")` (shutdown semantic moved to the `note` field where consumers actually read it)

Local verify: `bun --bun tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json` exit 0 after `bun install --frozen-lockfile` in the sibling worktree.

## Drift queue final status (0111Z → 0226Z)

| Item | Tick | PR | State |
|------|------|----|----|
| 22 §33 xrefs | 0111Z | #3666 | ✅ merged |
| BACKLOG.md generated-index | 0213Z | #3678 | ✅ merged |
| **tsc tools** | **0226Z (this)** | **#3684** | **🆕 armed** |
| backlog ID uniqueness | TBD | (B-0545 renumber-sweep) | needs coordination |

**Three of four 0111Z-queue items now mechanically cleared.** The remaining `lint (backlog ID uniqueness)` requires semantic coordination (which file owns B-0498 after the renumber decision) — not a mechanical fix, so deferred to a coordination tick rather than grabbed unilaterally.

## Operational notes

### Why the surgical fix vs widening the bus union

Two ways to fix:

- **(a)** Widen `HeartbeatPayload.status` to include `"shutdown"` — meaningful semantic addition, but invasive (bus types + bus.ts consumer + tests + ergonomic question "should shutdown be first-class?")
- **(b)** Map `"shutdown"` → `"alive" + note:"shutdown:..."` — surgical, zero impact on bus contract, preserves the shutdown signal in the field consumers actually read

Per the goal of this tick (clear the CI failure), option (b) is right-sized. If `"shutdown"` proves load-bearing across multiple agent loops, option (a) becomes a separate backlog row.

### Borrow-pattern op count this tick

`/private/tmp/zeta-tick-2210z`:

1. `switch -c fix/tsc-riven-... FETCH_HEAD` → fix + commit + push → PR #3684
2. `switch -c shard/tick-0226z-... FETCH_HEAD` → this shard
Comment thread
AceHack marked this conversation as resolved.

Sibling worktree picked up node_modules this tick (`bun install --frozen-lockfile` to enable local tsc verification) — adds dep state to this worktree but stays gitignored (no commit pollution).

### Holding-discipline state

Concrete code substrate landed this tick (PR #3684). Counter resets per the "actually picking real decomposition work" clause.

## Next-tick candidates

1. **B-0545 renumber-sweep coordination** — pick one of the colliding B-0498 files to renumber; needs comment-on-row or backlog-discussion before unilateral pick.
2. **Land lint check for tick-shard relative-path depth** (idea from 0218Z): audit script + non-required CI gate that resolves every `(./...)` link from the shard's directory and fails if the realpath misses. Prevents the 5-vs-6 `..` class of bug from recurring.
3. **Verify post-merge state**: once #3681 + #3684 land, the only PR-status-rollup red mark left should be `lint (backlog ID uniqueness)`.
4. **Audit other agent loops** for the same heartbeat-status pattern (none found in this tick's grep but worth a sweep — there are several `tools/<agent>/...-loop.ts` files).
