…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.

…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.

…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.
