shard(2026-05-25/1009Z): cold-boot — sentinel-fired-AGAIN + lior-substrate-stale-superseded empirical anchor#4914
Conversation
…trate-stale-superseded empirical anchor Second 2026-05-25 fresh-session in this lane (after PR #4911 0613Z anchor). Substantively new observations: - Sentinel empty at cold-boot AGAIN (catch-43 fired AGAIN, ~4h after PR #4911 also re-armed at 0613Z); pattern: per-session non-persistence is the dominant mechanism, NOT 3-day auto-expire - 0 stuck git procs sustained ~30h since 2026-05-24 0407Z first-0-procs reading; dotgit-recovered remains stable - Cold-boot landed on peer Lior's `lior-pr-preservation-rebased` (7th+ occurrence of "lands on whoever-was-last-active's branch" failure mode) - NEW anchor: Lior's branch stages 70 `full-ai-cluster/*` files that ALREADY landed on origin/main via PRs #4910/#4912/#4913 — substrate-drift class observation; pr-triage-tiers.md Tier 1 disposition applies if Lior's branch ever pushed as PR Disposition: shard via isolated worktree on origin/main (lane-discipline preserved Lior's branch); did NOT touch Lior's WIP. Composes with the multi-anchor saturation-recovery series + the substrate-drift class documented in pr-triage-tiers.md + the catch-43 reliability of the autonomous-loop discipline.

Pull request overview
Adds a new hygiene-history tick shard documenting the 2026-05-25 10:09Z Otto-CLI cold-boot observations, including the repeated catch-43 sentinel-empty event and an empirical anchor about substrate drift from parallel PR landings.
Changes:
- Add a new tick shard file for 2026-05-25/1009Z with cold-boot state observations and operational implications.
- Record an empirical “substrate-drift via parallel-PR landings” anchor referencing recent AI-cluster PRs.
…ing-space - 7 tick-shard relative-paths used `../../../../` (4 levels) but tick shards at `docs/hygiene-history/ticks/YYYY/MM/DD/` are 6 levels deep; fixed to `../../../../../../` to match the canonical pattern - MD038 markdownlint: `A ` code span had trailing space inside backticks; reworded to `\`A\` + space` to preserve the semantic (git status 2-char code: first char `A`, second char space = staged-added with working tree matching index) without violating MD038 Both lint failures verified clean locally via markdownlint-cli2.

…staged count Addresses 2 real reviewer findings on PR #4914: 1. P0 Copilot — schema violation: first non-empty line was H1, but per docs/hygiene-history/ticks/README.md the validator at tools/hygiene/check-tick-history-shard-schema.ts requires a 6-column pipe-row first. Prepended the canonical pipe-row carrying ISO timestamp, model id, cron sentinel, body summary, PR ref, and observation. H1 body preserved below (hybrid format per B-0529 Recommendation Option 3). 2. P2 Codex + Copilot — arithmetic discrepancy: shard reported "105 staged full-ai-cluster/* additions" but the verification table later reported 70 staged. Re-counted via `git status --short | awk | sort | uniq -c`: 70 staged-A (all full-ai-cluster/*) + 35 untracked-?? (other Lior WIP) + 8 modified-M (7 PR-disc + 1 settings.json) = 113 total. The 105 was an arithmetic error (113 - 8). Corrected to substrate-honest breakdown. Both fixes verified locally: - Schema validator: shard passes (453 pre-existing violations in other shards — not introduced by this PR) - markdownlint: clean Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Addresses P2 Codex finding on PR #4914: prior shard text claimed both table rows were verified via `git ls-tree -r origin/main full-ai-cluster/`, but that command only counts files on origin/main (first row). The second row (staged on Lior's branch) requires a different command (`git status --short | grep "full-ai-cluster" | wc -l` run against the contested root checkout still on lior-pr-preservation-rebased). Replaced single-command claim with a per-row verification column that names the actual command used for each metric. Both verified counts already landed correctly (70 each); only the provenance attribution was off. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

…uration + catch-43-fired-AGAIN (#4915) 3rd Otto-CLI fresh-session cold-boot today (after 0613Z PR #4911 + 1009Z PR #4914). Sentinel re-armed AGAIN at session start (catch-43 fired 3rd time today, ~82min after 1009Z arm). Substantive observations: - Catch-43 has now fired 3 times in one day across separate Otto-CLI sessions; per-session sentinel non-persistence is firmly the dominant mechanism, not the 3-day auto-expire window - 55 open PRs ALL authored by AceHack on lior-* / family-feedback-* / fix-memory-index-* / lior-persona-update-* branches (100% Lior surface); zero in otto-cli lane - Literal task predicate (gate=BLOCKED + nextAction=resolve-threads) matches ZERO PRs; executing on out-of-lane Lior PRs would violate lane discipline + 1009Z anchor's explicit "Does NOT touch Lior's branch" - Substrate-drift via parallel-PR landings (the 1009Z empirical anchor) still active — Lior's staged ai-cluster work continues to overlap with already-landed substrate on origin/main - Recursion-saturation per holding-without-named-dependency-is-standing -by-failure.md recursion-termination clause — this shard takes the minimal-acknowledgment form rather than further pattern elaboration 7-step verify trace + composes_with section in shard body.

Summary
Second 2026-05-25 fresh-session cold-boot in this lane (~4h after PR #4911's 0613Z anchor). Substantively new observations:
lior-pr-preservation-rebased— 7th+ occurrence of the "lands on whoever-was-last-active's branch" failure mode. Now firmly established as the steady-state cold-boot environment.Disposition
