From d298fead3932a7e072d67001a121501c2a676f22 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lior Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 16:11:17 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] =?UTF-8?q?docs(ticks):=202008Z=202026-05-26=20?= =?UTF-8?q?=E2=80=94=20first=20UTC-day=20shard=20+=20dotgit-recovered=20co?= =?UTF-8?q?nfirmation?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit First tick shard for UTC day 2026-05-26. Confirms dotgit-saturation arc fully recovered (0 stuck procs at 20:08Z) after the 13-anchor 26h cycle documented in MEMORY.md (2026-05-23 10:18Z 450 peak → 2026-05-24 12:08Z 428 13th-anchor). Verify-before-defer composition succeeded cleanly under 10-peer-proc activity (worktree-add HEAD 73962cd9b; ls-tree=61; status=0; canary clean). Substrate cascade continues — B-0824 Kestrel/DeepSeek substrate landed 4 PRs in the 17min preceding this tick (#5285, #5286, #5291, #5228). Peer Otto-CLI #5295 (Mika-ferry) opened concurrent at 20:08:36Z; lane-distinct from this shard. Catch-43 re-arm fired correctly — sentinel job a78141d2 armed.
