Summary

20th dotgit anchor in the 2026-05-23→2026-05-25 saturation-arc series. 7th consecutive 0-stuck-proc reading — Otto-bg-worker fresh cold-boot via the claude-loop integrated worktree.

Reading Value
Stuck git pack/maintenance/repack procs 0 (7th consecutive)
.git/index.lock absent
Lior loop procs 0
Peer agent procs (claude/gemini/kiro/alexa/lior union) 43
origin/main HEAD 44bcaff77 (PR #4905)
Cadence vs #19 36 min (resumed; refutes #19's Possibility D)
Cold-boot worktree state worktree-lively-tickling-stearns clean; HEAD == origin/main from cold-boot

Why this anchor matters

  1. 7th consecutive clean — saturation recovery operationally robust across short (≤36min) AND long (>1h) cadence
  2. First clean cold-boot in the 20-anchor series — claude-loop's per-session worktree allocation may be structural protection vs the peer-branch-contamination failure mode documented at Round 29 — CI pipeline + three-way parity install + factory-improvement surge #5/Round 31 — rest round (maintainer-called after first-green-gate) #7/Round 32 — CI parity-swap + persona memory normalization + v1 security scope #8/Round 33 followup — bash is Unix-only; cross-platform automation = TypeScript/Bun #10/Round 33 — backlog scope audit + GOVERNANCE §29 #12/Round 33 — docs/VISION.md first draft + product-visionary role proposal #13/Round 33 — VISION v7: DX north star (ASP.NET DI → distributed DB → Kind) #19. Naming the hypothesis; will see if it holds across Round 33 — VISION v9: Zeta owns persistence 100%; Kafka/NATS are wire transport only #21+
  3. Cadence resumed at 36min after Round 33 — VISION v7: DX north star (ASP.NET DI → distributed DB → Kind) #19's 1h24min gap — refutes Round 33 — VISION v7: DX north star (ASP.NET DI → distributed DB → Kind) #19's Possibility D (operator-side pause). New Possibility E (inherent variance) preserved alongside C (longer-cycle self-tuning)
  4. Otto lane STILL empty (0 PRs) vs Lior lane dominant (60 PRs). Lane discipline holds: the autonomous-loop prompt's generic "fix BLOCKED PR threads" instruction is boilerplate, not operative cross-lane authorization (per mechanical-authorization-check.md)

Test plan

  • Branch guard via git branch --show-current before commit
  • ls-tree HEAD == ls-tree origin/main (57/57; canary clean)
  • Post-push git ls-remote verification (LOCAL == REMOTE; B-0615 silent-push canary clean)
  • No peer worktree contention (0 Lior procs, 0 stuck plumbing)
  • CI passes (CodeQL + gate workflows)
  • Auto-merge arms cleanly

…-proc reading + cadence resumed (36min)

7th consecutive clean reading. Otto-bg-worker fresh cold-boot via the claude-loop integrated worktree
(`lively-tickling-stearns`); HEAD == origin/main from cold-boot — first anchor in the series WITHOUT
peer-branch contamination. Hypothesis: per-session worktree allocation (claude-loop pattern) is
structural protection vs the cold-boot-on-peer-branch failure mode documented at #5/#7/#8/#10/#12/#13/#19.

Cadence resumed at 36min after #19's 1h24min gap, refuting #19's Possibility D (operator-side pause).
Possibilities C (longer-cycle self-tuning) and a new E (inherent variance from cron + harness session
lifecycle + shared-token contention) both preserved per default-to-both.

Otto lane (Otto-VSCode + Otto-CLI + Otto-bg-worker) STILL EMPTY (0 PRs). 60 open PRs all in Lior's lane
(55 `lior-*` + 2 `family-*` + 2 `fix-*` + 1 `lior/decompose`). Otto stays out per lane discipline.
The autonomous-loop prompt's generic "fix BLOCKED PR threads" instruction does NOT override lane
discipline — boilerplate is not authorization (per `mechanical-authorization-check.md`).

Pull request overview

Adds the 2026-05-25 04:43Z hygiene-history “tick shard” (20th dotgit-saturation anchor) documenting another clean (0 stuck git procs) reading and resumed cadence after the prior >1h gap.

Changes:

  • Add a new tick entry under docs/hygiene-history/ticks/2026/05/25/ capturing the 0443Z observations, cadence interpretation, and cross-links to prior anchors/rules.

Four edits to docs/hygiene-history/ticks/2026/05/25/0443Z.md at PR #4909 head 9aeda56:

1. Line 22 (MD056 table-column-count): escape pipe in regex pattern (gemini.*Lior|lior.*loop → gemini.*Lior\|lior.*loop) so markdown parser does not split into 4 cells.
2. Line 25: reconcile +5/six-entry mismatch by changing +5→+4 and dropping #4906?/#4907 (which 0407Z already observed). Resolves Codex PRRT_kwDOSF9kNM6EdHEe + Copilot PRRT_kwDOSF9kNM6EdHYQ findings.
3. Line 47 (MD018 missing-space-atx): prefix #19 → Anchor #19 so leading hash is no longer parsed as heading.
4. Line 60 (MD018 missing-space-atx): same fix for #19's → Anchor #19's.

Local markdownlint-cli2 passes. Auto-merge already armed.

…ination + lane-empty + peer-covering + dotgit-recovered anchor (#4911)

* shard(2026-05-25/0613Z): Otto-CLI cold-boot — composite "branch-contamination + lane-empty + peer-covering + dotgit-recovered" anchor

Forced-#6 decomposition per holding-without-named-dependency counter rule
produced an isolated-worktree empirical anchor. Brief-ack arc #1-#5 with
explicit-no-pre-empt at #5 (same-shape-as-peer-covering substrate would
have been fabricated engineering).

Composite state-shape (substantively-new): branch-contamination (on
peer-Lior preservation lane with 30+ untracked + 7 modified PR-disc
files) + Otto-CLI-lane-empty + peer-Otto-VSCode covering dotgit-anchor
work (#4909) + dotgit-recovered (0 stuck procs sustained ~85min+).

Worktree-add guard results (all 4 passed): rev-parse resolves; status=0;
ls-tree HEAD=57; no stale index.lock. Confirms verify-before-defer
composition operates correctly under dotgit-recovered tier.

Composes with:
- .claude/rules/tick-must-never-stop.md (catch-43 fire)
- .claude/rules/holding-without-named-dependency-is-standing-by-failure.md (brief-ack #6 forced)
- .claude/rules/refresh-world-model-poll-pr-gate.md (origin/main base ref preference)
- .claude/rules/claim-acquire-before-worktree-work.md (verify-before-defer)
- .claude/rules/codeql-no-source-on-docs-only-pr-is-broken-commit-canary.md (post-creation guards)
- .claude/rules/zeta-expected-branch.md (branch-guard at commit time)

* fix(shard): rewrite Dotgit-recovered row to remove pipes from code-span (MD056)

Inline ps-grep chain had 4 raw `|` characters that markdownlint MD056
counted as table column separators (Expected: 2; Actual: 7). Rewrote
as prose without pipes; column count restored to 2.

* fix(shard): replace file-head YAML frontmatter with 6-column pipe-row per schema

Tick-shard schema (docs/hygiene-history/ticks/README.md +
tools/hygiene/check-tick-history-shard-schema.ts) requires the first
non-empty line to be a 6-column pipe-row. File-head YAML frontmatter
pushes `---` to first non-empty line and fails validator. Moved YAML
to a B-0308-style optional metadata block below H1 per README §80-140
hybrid format guidance.

Resolves copilot-pull-request-reviewer thread PRRT_kwDOSF9kNM6Ed4ZK on
PR #4911 line 17.
