…e debug logs once current state attached (Aaron 2026-05-27 deferred; USB priority) Captures operator's 2026-05-27 two-part vision: 1. "over time we can start adding automated observations about current state to the heartbeat that it automatily gathers before pushing, we can backlog this no right now we are gong to go back to usb once we have this hearbeat current iteration done" 2. "then heartbeats also become debug logs once we have current state attached" 15 candidate auto-gathered fields tabulated with sources + cost: - local-only (cwd/branch/staged-count/etc): zero REST - git-state (last-commit-sha-prefix; behind-vs-ahead): pure git - REST-state (rate-limit; open-PR-count): bounded REST - peer-state (peer-agent-process-count; dotgit-saturation-tier): local - sentinel-state (CronList for <<autonomous-loop>>): harness-tool 5 sub-rows planned (5a→5b→5d→5c→5e order) — local-first per zero-REST-cost prioritization. Debug-log property: each ZetaID-indexed heartbeat carries enough state to reconstruct "what was the world like at this tick" for forensic analysis across: - single-agent tick-cadence + named-dep + disposition timeline - multi-agent saturation timeline - substrate-landing attribution (which agent + disposition produced which PR) - catch-43 sentinel-restart timeline Status: DEFERRED implementation per operator USB priority. Recording the row exists is critical for the deferred work to reliably happen per operator 2026-05-27 separation-of-concerns discipline. Composes: - B-0858 row (PR #5456 merged) - B-0858.3 writer (PR #5464 merged) — this row extends - B-0858.4 merge tool (PR #5471 in-flight) - .claude/rules/refresh-world-model-poll-pr-gate.md (5c rate-limit tier) - .claude/rules/codeql-no-source-on-docs-only-pr-is-broken-commit-canary.md (5d dotgit-saturation) - tools/hygiene/audit-agencysignature-main-tip.ts (sibling forensic tool) Per operator's "right now we are gong to go back to usb once we have this hearbeat current iteration done": filing this row IS the last heartbeat-iteration substrate item; next tick continues USB priority work (B-0852.4d wire NixOS module into common.nix). Per .claude/rules/agent-worktree-hygiene-never-hold-main-...: isolated worktree at /private/tmp/zeta-b0858-5-row-1440z; operator primary checkout untouched.

…n/explicit/no-panopticon (Aaron 2026-05-27 critical principle) Operator 2026-05-27 critical principle (message 3 in the 3-message sequence captured): "when we gether current state it should be explicit to the agents what information is being gathers so it's consent first and the agent is okay with the verbosity of the current state heartbeat, we don't need to summugle in a panopticon for heartbeats." Added load-bearing 6-point constraint to B-0858.5 row body: 1. Default: gather NOTHING beyond current minimal heartbeat 2. Each gathered field is OPT-IN via explicit flag OR env var 3. Agent invocation MUST explicitly enable each gather; no implicit all-on 4. The agent owns the verbosity (mid-tick reconfig supported) 5. Documented at point-of-introduction (each gather flag has explicit description) 6. --show-gather-config flag prints all available gather fields + opt-in state Anti-panopticon framing: heartbeats-as-debug-logs (operator message 2) does NOT override consent-first (message 3); they compose. The gather mechanism itself cannot become a coercion vector because each field requires explicit opt-in at agent scope. Per .claude/rules/non-coercion-invariant.md HC-8: operator authority over own state-disclosure preserved at every gather-field scope. Per the same rule's "no coercion via mechanism in the system" clause: gather mechanism stays consent-bounded by construction.

…t marker; rewrite "+ optional" → "plus optional" Markdownlint failure on PR #5473: line 78 of B-0858.5 row body had: YAML frontmatter (zetaid + agent + persona-slot + timestamp + authority + momentum + chromosome + location + firefly + disposition + optional named-dep + optional parent-pr). This row extends the The "+ optional" at start of line 78 parsed as an unordered-list marker (MD032 needs blank-line-before-list). Same shape as the earlier #5464 fix (line 85 README "+ folder convention" → "and folder convention"). Fix: rewrite "+ optional named-dep" to "plus optional named-dep" — same semantics, no list-marker ambiguity at line start. Local re-lint: `bunx markdownlint-cli2 'docs/backlog/P2/B-0858.5-*.md'` returns clean.

Pull request overview
Adds a new P2 backlog row (B-0858.5) documenting the consent-first, opt-in design for heartbeat auto-state gathering (treating heartbeats as debug-log snapshots once state is attached), and updates the generated backlog index to include the new row.
Changes:
- Introduces
B-0858.5per-row backlog document capturing operator framing, constraints, and candidate gathered fields. - Regenerates
docs/BACKLOG.mdto include the new entry/link.

…three messages inconsistency + line-79 "+ optional" still mid-line ambiguity + cross-ref inaccurate 4 Copilot threads on PR #5473: 1. **depends_on broken edges (@12)**: referenced B-0858.3 and B-0858.4 as sub-IDs but those aren't standalone row files in docs/backlog/ (they were implementation PRs; .3 = PR #5464 writer; .4 = PR #5471 merge tool; substrate is the implementations themselves not separate rows). Fix: drop those entries; reference only B-0858 (the parent row that does exist as a backlog file). 2. **"two-part vision across two messages" vs three (@20)**: section below has Message 1/2/3 after the consent-first constraint addition; intro still said "two messages". Fix: "Three-message vision captured across the implementation cycle (auto-state-gathering value + debug-log property + consent-first constraint)". 3. **Line 79 "+ optional parent-pr" mid-line ambiguity (@79)**: my earlier fix changed "+ optional named-dep" but the line still had "+ optional parent-pr" mid-line. Fix: rewrite to "with optional named-dep and optional parent-pr fields" — no leading "+" anywhere. 4. **Cross-ref inaccurate (@158)**: cited codeql-no-source-...-canary.md for dotgit-saturation tier; that file is about CodeQL "no source seen" canary not the dotgit table. The dotgit-saturation table actually lives in refresh-world-model-poll-pr-gate.md (which I cite separately at line 153-155). Fix: remove the incorrect codeql-canary cross-ref. Local re-lint clean. Per .claude/rules/blocked-green-ci-investigate-threads.md verify-then-fix: each Copilot finding verified against the actual file content; all 4 real findings; bundled fix.

Summary
Files B-0858.5 row capturing operator 2026-05-27 three-message vision:
15 candidate auto-gathered fields tabulated (local-only / git-state / REST-state / peer-state / sentinel-state); 5 sub-rows planned (local-first per zero-REST priority). All field collection OPT-IN; default gathers nothing beyond current minimal heartbeat; each field has explicit flag + env var + documentation.
Test plan
Status
DEFERRED implementation per operator's USB priority direction ("right now we are gong to go back to usb once we have this hearbeat current iteration done"). Recording the row exists is critical per operator's 2026-05-27 separation-of-concerns discipline.
