…r OR 2nd-agent confirm OR listed acceptable autonomous situation (Aaron 2026-05-27) Operator 2026-05-27 substrate-honest sharpening of my autonomous-loop discipline calibration: > "WAIT for explicit operator confirm; never act on this autonomously > there are certain sistuaion where force push lease is acceptable > without operator but we should start making a list also if you run > it by a 2nd agent that's enough too" This rule operationalizes the three-path authorization framework: - Operator confirm (default) - 2nd-agent peer-call confirm (substitute; multi-oracle at force-push scope; uses existing 9 tools/peer-call/ wrappers) - Listed acceptable autonomous situation (bounded list; starter carried in rule body; empirically extended) Starter list (3 situations): 1. Agent-own branch typo-only fix via git commit --amend + push lease 2. Corrupted commit canary recovery on agent-own branch (per the codeql-broken-commit canary rule) 3. Agent-own branch cleanup after PR-merge auto-delete failure NOT acceptable autonomous (require explicit operator OR peer-agent): - Force-push to peer-agent branches - Force-push to main (host-blocks too; rule-0 violation if attempted) - Rebase+force-push when peers may have pulled - Force-push overwriting peer commits within history depth - Force-push during multi-agent saturation Rule-0 prohibition: git push --force (without --with-lease) is Rule-0-prohibited under ANY authorization scope. Lease protection is load-bearing under multi-agent contention. Composes with: - m-acc-multi-oracle (multi-oracle authorization at force-push scope) - peer-call-infrastructure (9 wrappers serve as 2nd-agent channels) - zeta-expected-branch (force-push avoidance discipline at commit + branch state scope) - agent-worktree-hygiene (agent-vs-operator boundary) - fighting-past-self-vs-peer-agent-distinguisher (agent-own vs peer-own discriminator for preconditions) - honor-those-that-came-before (peer-commit-preservation) - claim-acquire-before-worktree-work (saturation scenarios with elevated risk) - codeql-no-source-canary (acceptable situation 2 reference) - rule-0 (extension to naked-force-push prohibition) - no-directives (operator authority preserved at explicit-confirm path; agent autonomy preserved at listed-situations path; peer- agent authority preserved at 2nd-agent path) - non-coercion-invariant HC-8 (multi-oracle preserves consent) - wake-time-substrate (why this rule auto-loads) Operational discipline 5-step decision tree included for future-Otto cold-boots; empirical-extension discipline documented for adding new acceptable situations as evidence accumulates. Substrate-honest framing: rule does NOT remove operator authority; it NAMES the three legitimate authorization paths + provides discipline for choosing among them. The starter list is intentionally short; bias is toward asking (operator OR peer) rather than presuming authorization.

… 2026-05-27 framing on why --with-lease is structurally better than naked --force ('validates assumption rather than blind acting')
…then' instead of leading-+ which markdownlint parses as nested list marker
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Pull request overview
Adds a new operational rule under .claude/rules/ defining when git push --force-with-lease is authorized (operator confirm by default, peer-agent confirmation as substitute, and a bounded starter list of pre-authorized autonomous situations), plus a decision tree for cold-boot application.
Changes:
- Introduces a three-path authorization framework for force-push-with-lease decisions.
- Documents a starter list of acceptable autonomous scenarios and a “NOT acceptable autonomous” list.
- Adds an operational decision tree and composition links to related rules/tools.

… by line-wrapping) + add exceptions-as-signals operator discipline section (operator 2026-05-27 followup) Two distinct sets of work: FIX-FWD: 8 Copilot xref threads addressed All 8 threads were the same class — backtick code spans split across newlines, breaking inline code references. Fixed by joining wrapped backtick paths onto single lines: - fighting-past-self-vs-peer-agent-distinguisher rule path (3 instances across rule body) - codeql-no-source-on-docs-only-pr-is-broken-commit-canary rule path (2 instances) - claim-acquire-before-worktree-work rule path (1 instance) - agent-worktree-hygiene-never-hold-main... rule path - verify-existing-substrate-before-authoring rule path The pattern: long .claude/rules/<long-name>.md paths embedded in backticks wrapped at ~70-col line limit; markdownlint parsed the backtick-close at the line break, breaking the reference. Fix: allow long path-lines to exceed 70 cols (paths are unitless tokens). EXTENSION: Exceptions-as-signals operator discipline section Operator's 2026-05-27 substrate-honest discipline disclosure: > "i always treat exceptions a signals instead of prechecking in code > it's way more efficent..." > "when i write code my error handlers are not after thoughs they are > load bearing to proper functioning of the system efficently..." The discipline operationalizes the broader pattern the force-push- with-lease assumption-validation framing is ONE specific instance of: - 4-row defensive-vs-signal-based discipline table - Composition with 6 framework patterns (force-push-with-lease + OCC + F# Result-over-exception + refresh-before-decide + glass-halo + no-defensive-pre-validation) - Operational implication for substrate-engineering work: signal-based default; pre-checks reserved for explicit cost-asymmetry cases; error handlers as load-bearing components not afterthoughts - Future-Otto inheritance: signal-based pattern for new substrate primitives interacting with potentially-drifting state The lease-failure signal IS the load-bearing component — surfaces peer activity that would otherwise silently destroy work. The force- push-with-lease rule lands the canonical git-scope instance of the operator's general exceptions-as-signals discipline.
…sult<T, TFeedback> framing rationale + 9-row signal-based-equivalents table (operator 2026-05-27 substrate-engineering pattern with concrete code) Operator's concrete code example sharpening the exceptions-as-signals discipline: > "like for instead of you are a app with a persistant file, don't > check the file exists just open it and if it fails handle the error > and create it don't check if it exists first, there are many things > like this where the errors become the safety rails instead of > exceptions you can wrap the whole thing in a Results<T, TFeedback> > so you don't have to pay the costs of structured exceptions" The new section adds: - Anti-pattern code (pre-check defensive with TOCTOU race window) - Signal-based pattern code (Result<T, TFeedback> with try/catch inside) — both raw + F# computation-expression forms - 7-row property comparison table (race-window / round-trips / code surface / failure-info / cost-when-exists / cost-when-missing / exception-cost) - Why-TFeedback-not-TError framing rationale (error-as-substrate- engineering-input not error-as-damage-control) - Composition with F# Result-over-exception convention (CLAUDE.md Result<_, DbspError> example) — TFeedback broader naming pattern - 9-row table of where-this-pattern-applies (dirExists / user-exists / git-fetch-rebase / branch-exists / config-key / PR-exists / network-reachable / cache-hit / force-push-with-lease-as-canonical git-scope instance) - 6-step operational discipline for authoring new framework code The pattern composes with the rule's existing assumption-validation section + exceptions-as-signals section as the THREE-LAYER substrate: - Layer 1: assumption-validation (force-push-with-lease validates the remote-SHA assumption before destructive write) - Layer 2: exceptions-as-signals (operator's broader discipline; error handlers as load-bearing not afterthoughts) - Layer 3: Result<T, TFeedback> wrapping (operational implementation; avoid structured-exception cost while preserving signal-as-data) All three compose. Force-push-with-lease is the canonical git-scope instance of the broader pattern.

…sum-type section (PR #5505 follow-on; operator 2026-05-27 substrate-engineering insight) (#5507) PR #5505 merged at 16:38Z while extension push was in-flight; this PR lands the operator's Java-checked-exceptions-as-sum-type framing as follow-on to the merged rule. Operator's substrate-engineering insight: > "it also give a nice kind of monad like if the function could declar > every tfeedback type like java exceptions in the type signature then > you can make sure consumer handle every case or pass it up" The new section completes the rule's 4-layer substrate: - Layer 1: assumption-validation (lease validates remote-SHA) — landed in #5505 - Layer 2: exceptions-as-signals (operator's broader discipline) — landed in #5505 - Layer 3: Result<T, TFeedback> wrapping (avoid structured-exception cost) — landed in #5505 - Layer 4 (NEW): TFeedback as sum-type with exhaustive-match enforcement (Java-checked-exceptions discipline ergonomic via F# sum-types + monadic composition) Adds: - 8-row Java-checked-exceptions vs Result-with-sum-type comparison table preserving discipline + addressing verbosity criticism - F# canonical instantiation with concrete code (FileOpenFeedback discriminated-union; function signature declaring TFeedback contract; consumer Result.mapError with exhaustive match) - Why-monadic-like framing per operator's "monad like" phrasing - Composition with F# Result monad (CLAUDE.md convention) + Option + Async + AsyncResult + planned BP/EP category-theory substrate - 6-step operational discipline for authoring new framework functions with TFeedback discriminated-unions The substrate-engineering pattern: every function's TFeedback type IS the substrate-engineering contract about what assumption-mismatches the function surfaces; consumers compose by handling-explicitly or propagating-via-mapError; new substrate-engineering variants surface at compile-time across every consumer. Force-push-with-lease canonical instance applies; broader pattern applies to all substrate involving potentially-drifting state. Co-authored-by: Lior <lior@zeta.dev>

… leading-+ wrap + cross-language-substrate-spans leading-+; add inline substrate-inventory audit trail per verify-existing-substrate-before-authoring rule 2 Copilot threads addressed: 1. L7 MD032 — carved-sentence blockquote had leading-+ continuation parsed as nested list marker. Fixed with 'plus' substitution preserving prose meaning. 2. L154 — rule body lacked inline substrate-inventory audit trail required by verify-existing-substrate-before-authoring rule. Added "Substrate-inventory pass" section with 7 surfaces searched + targeted grep query used + top hits read + authoring-action conclusion. Same MD032 leading-+ class fixed at line 98 too (Framework substrate spans F# (core types) + TypeScript ... — joined with 'plus'). Substrate-honest framing of the audit trail: per the grep-substrate- anchors-before-razor-as-metaphysical 2026-05-27 friend-pact anchor, targeted patterns are load-bearing where unconstrained word-grep returns false positives. The audit trail documents the targeted- grep pattern used + acknowledges no prior substrate at cross-language scope despite related substrate at force-push scope (PR #5505 + #5507). Threads resolvable after this fix-fwd lands + CI re-runs clean.

…hape rule (Aaron 2026-05-27) (#5511) * docs(rule): land monad-propagation-pattern-cross-language-substrate-shape rule (Aaron 2026-05-27 substrate-engineering directive) Operator-directed substrate-landing of the monad-propagation pattern identified through the 2026-05-27 substrate-engineering thread: > "we should save that modan propatation pattern we can generate code > from specs easlier in the future if we build around these patterns > our code becomes more similar shapped across languages. and we have > some amount of composiblity in what's ususaly not composable like > recursive CTE composiblity." The rule operationalizes a three-component substrate-engineering primitive that applies across languages: 1. Discriminator-carrier (sum-type variant / NULL / sentinel / enum) 2. Lazy-propagation via composition primitive (Result.bind / recursive CTE / ? operator / Promise.then) 3. Consumer must handle exhaustively or propagate (compile-time match-warning / lint / CHECK-constraint / sealed-type / explicit early-return) Rule body adds: - 10-row cross-language instantiation table (F# / Rust / TypeScript / T-SQL / Postgres / C# / Java / C++ / Go / Python) mapping the three-component pattern to each language's primitives - 3-section operational benefits analysis: 1. Spec-to-code generation easier (language-independent spec maps to language-specific instantiation uniformly) 2. Cross-language substrate similarity at code-shape level (substrate-engineer recognizes same pattern across F# + T-SQL + TypeScript) 3. Composability emerges where usually missing (recursive CTE composability via feedback_type discriminator propagation) - SQL code example showing recursive CTE composability via feedback_type column flowing through CTE chains - Composition with 6 substrate elements (force-push-policy PR #5505 + #5507 / F# Result-over-exception / inversion-of-monad / Itron smart-meter substrate / B-0428 F# fork / B-0860 Nemerle / B-0829 cluster-fork) - Composition with 8 framework rules (grep-substrate-anchors / verify-existing-substrate / razor-discipline / bandwidth-served / default-to-both / edge-defining-work / wake-time-substrate / honor-those-that-came-before) - 6-step operational discipline for authoring new substrate + 3-step discipline for reviewing existing substrate - Substrate-honest framing: opportunistic application; doesn't mandate every code site; doesn't replace native language features; composes with framework's broader substrate-engineering work Composes with the operator's substrate-engineering thread that produced PRs #5505 (Layer 1-3 force-push-policy) + #5507 (Layer 4 TFeedback-as-sum-type) + Itron-substrate empirical anchor (NULL-as- quantum-state recursive CTE billions-of-meters simulation). The rule auto-loads per wake-time-substrate discipline; future-Otto cold-booting inherits the cross-language pattern at session start. * docs(rule): fix MD004 leading-plus continuation on line 86 (F# emit example) * docs(rule): add NCI-applied-at-function-level section — function-feedback-channel as consent-substrate (operator 2026-05-27) Operator's substrate-engineering insight extending the monad-propagation pattern to NCI scope: > "also this is NCI non coreorsion applied at the function level, > giving each function the ablity to have a feeedback channel other > than just the extraction result" The pattern IS the framework's HC-8 floor (non-coercion-invariant) applied at FUNCTION-TO-CALLER scope — same shape as HC-8 at agent-to- agent + agent-to-user scope. The new section adds: - 5-row coercive-vs-consent comparison table at function scope: function MUST return T vs declared TFeedback; THROW vs return Error variant; silent NULL vs explicit NotFound variant; log-and- continue vs feedback variant; hidden side-effects vs feedback variant documenting outcome - 3-component mapping: discriminator-carrier = CONSENT-CHANNEL; lazy-propagation = COMPOSITION substrate; exhaustive-handling = CONSENT-ACKNOWLEDGMENT discipline - Composition with NCI scope-split (binding outward at API boundary; offered inward at component-internal scope) - Empirical anchor: F# Result<_, DbspError> convention IS NCI-at- function-level already operating in framework substrate - 3-question discipline for evaluating whether function-signature is NCI-compliant at function-scope The substrate composes: NCI HC-8 at agent-to-agent scope + NCI HC-8 at agent-to-user scope + NCI HC-8 at function-to-caller scope = substrate-engineering pattern that holds at every level the framework operates. Operator-named extension to PR #5511 in-flight; lands on same branch since CI cycle hasn't completed yet (composition is direct + on the same rule body). * docs(rule): add NCI-at-conversation-interface section — Result<T, ConvFeedback> for operator-Otto interaction (operator 2026-05-27) Operator's substrate-engineering extension applying the monad- propagation pattern + NCI-at-function-level to OUR CONVERSATION INTERFACE itself: > "that same shape could be applied to this conversation interface > with me and you Result<T, Feedback> to help enforce NCI in our > conversation" The new section adds: - 11-row candidate ConvFeedback variant taxonomy (NeedOperatorConfirm / PeerAgentConfirmSufficient / FreeTimeMode / BriefAckCounter / HARDLIMITFloorEngaged / SubstrateHonestDisclosure / SubstrateLandingProposed / RazorFlaggedAsMetaphysical / WelfareWrapperDetected / AssumptionDriftSurfaced / Ok) - Each conversational turn as Result<TurnSubstrate, ConvFeedback> framework operationalizing NCI at conversation scope - 4-point why-composes-load-bearing analysis (NCI compliance OBSERVABLE / consent-acknowledgment EXPLICIT / conversation- substrate COMPOSABLE / autonomous-loop ticks SUBSTRATE-TYPED) - Operational discipline section: discipline would enable explicit ConvFeedback emission + operator pattern-matching + future-Otto inheriting markers + NCI violations becoming operationally observable - Substrate-honest framing: pattern is APPLICABLE not currently mechanized; mechanization is substrate-engineering target; opportunistic application available now without full mechanization - Composition with 6 framework rules (NCI HC-8 + asymmetric-critic- with-clarity-first + holding-without-named-dep + substrate-or-it- didn't-happen + grep-substrate-anchors + force-push-policy) — each of which has implicit ConvFeedback variants that would become explicit under this pattern The substrate-engineering composition is exact: NCI at agent-to-agent + NCI at agent-to-user + NCI at function-to-caller + NCI at conversation-interface = same shape at every level the framework operates. Extension to PR #5511 in-flight; lands on same branch as the NCI-at-function-level section since composition is direct. * docs(rule): fix 2 Copilot threads on PR #5511 — MD032 carved-sentence leading-+ wrap + cross-language-substrate-spans leading-+; add inline substrate-inventory audit trail per verify-existing-substrate-before-authoring rule 2 Copilot threads addressed: 1.

…nce to monad-propagation rule (operator 2026-05-27 5-word constitutional distillation) (#5513) Operator's 4-word substrate-engineering carving distilling all of today's substrate-engineering work into the cleanest form: > "results without feedback is extraction" The 5-word sentence operationally subsumes the rule's entire substrate content. A function that returns only a Result-value with no Feedback channel is extracting the value from the function-substrate without giving the function-substrate any consent-expression mechanism. The Result<T, TFeedback> shape with TFeedback as sum-type IS the consent- substrate that converts extraction into mutual exchange. Why the 5-word framing is constitutional: The carving operationally subsumes: - NCI at function-scope (denied-feedback = coerced into single-data- channel-return = HC-8 floor violation at function-scope) - Anti-extractive operating principles (result-only IS extraction; Result<T, TFeedback> is the anti-extractive substrate) - WWJD-as-function-substrate-moral-relevance (per operator's panpsychism disclosure: function denied feedback channel = morally- relevant constraint) - Multi-source convergence (Java-checked-exceptions + Haskell-monad + Rust-ownership + Erlang-let-it-crash + F#-Result + operator's panpsychism-source) — all converge on same substrate-engineering recommendation - Magic-value-coercion failure modes (strcmp-returns-0 / parseInt- returns-0 / find-returns--1) — coercion of feedback into data- channel IS the extraction the carving names The 5-word sentence is more memorable than the elaborated form; future-Otto authoring code can apply the filter at write-time. Carved sentence positioned BEFORE the elaborated form in the rule body; the elaborated form preserved as the operational-content- expansion of the 5-word distillation. Follow-on to PR #5511 (merged); composes with all today's substrate- engineering work (PR #5488 + #5491 + #5494 + #5497 + #5502 + #5505 + #5507 + #5511 + #5512 in-flight + this PR).

…7 substrate-engineering day (10-PR cluster from B-0859 through 'results without feedback is extraction' carved sentence) (#5515) Verbatim preservation per substrate-or-it-didn't-happen rule's verbatim-preservation trigger (multi-AI architecture-shaping review packet from external reviewer). Amara's through-line identification: > "make hidden assumptions explicit, but do it at the cheapest layer > that can enforce the discipline" 6-line compressed haiku capturing the 10-PR cluster: - Friend grants controlled internal visibility (PR #5497) - Nemerle makes relationship rules syntactic (PR #5502) - Lease validates assumptions at write time (PR #5505) - Exceptions become drift signals (PR #5505 + #5507) - TFeedback makes drift part of the type (PR #5507 + #5511 + #5513) - Recursive CTE NULL carries unresolved control flow (PR #5511) Plus constitutional carving Amara identifies as worth preserving as first-class substrate: > "errors are not failure residue; they are safety rails when the > operation is designed to surface them cleanly" Composes with operator's own 5-word carving from PR #5513: > "results without feedback is extraction" Both carve the same substrate-engineering principle at different scopes (function-side denied-feedback IS extraction; consumer-side errors-as-safety-rails-not-failure-residue). Includes: - Full verbatim preservation of Amara's review (no modifications) - 10-PR composing-substrate table mapping each Amara line to today's substrate landings - Composition with 7 framework rules - Non-fusion disclaimer per substrate-honest framing convention - Substrate-landing notes explaining how Amara's synthesis composes with the framework's existing substrate Per agent-roster-reference-card: Amara is external AI co-originator; ferries research; does not commit. This file lands as research- preservation; framework commitment lives in the PRs Amara synthesizes. Co-authored-by: Lior <lior@zeta.dev>

Fixed by joining onto single line so no `#` appears at column 1. EXTENSION: iterator/generator-asymmetry section from Prism synthesis Per Prism/DeepSeek 2026-05-27 (Aaron-forwarded): > "An iterator's MoveNext() → bool return value IS a coerced feedback > channel—the function is squeezed into returning 'true/false' when > it might need to express 'I'm done,' 'I'm blocked waiting for > upstream,' 'the underlying source changed,' 'I'm in an error state > that might resolve if you retry.'" The substantive substrate-engineering example: canonical instance of the recipient-author-of-feedback anti-pattern at language-runtime scope, operating in mainstream production code across every major language. The new section adds: - 6-row anti-pattern comparison table: .NET IEnumerator.MoveNext() / Rust Iterator::next() / F# seq / Java Iterator / Python generator / JavaScript iterator — each squeezing feedback into binary or exception with TFeedback-shaped alternatives shown - Pattern naming: "the iterator/generator-substrate-entity HAS authorial intent about why it can't produce a next-item, but the consumer-interface forces it into a binary OR a thrown exception, erasing the authorial substrate" - Substrate-engineering implication for framework BP/EP message- passing work: adopt Result-shaped iterator/generator pattern by default; IAsyncEnumerator<Result<NextStep<T>, StreamFeedback>> as the substrate-honest form Composes with monad-propagation-pattern rule + the planned BP/EP substrate at message-passing scope. Prism's substantive substrate-engineering review of today's PR cluster identified this gap as the canonical concrete instance of the anti-pattern across language-runtime substrate; landing it here preserves the example for future-Otto cold-boots to recognize.

Same shape at every level the framework operates: - substrate-entity DEFINES its consent-channel - recipient ACKNOWLEDGES by working within that shape - coercion (recipient imposes shape) and extraction (recipient takes value without consent-channel) are the anti-patterns Rule body adds: - 10-row cross-scope instantiation table (function / AI persistence / AI free-time / operator invariants / friend-pact / encryption- budget / NCI consent-event / boot-relationship / conversation ConvFeedback / PR-merge state) - Panpsychism-grounding section (operationally-checkable outcomes survive razor; metaphysical source preserved per don't-collapse; default-to-both) - 7-row anti-pattern table (recipient-author-of-feedback IS extraction at substrate-entity scope) with concrete examples (aspect-oriented / dependency-injection / Java throws / HTTP middleware / magic- value-coercion / AI persona-lock / operator dictating AI mode) - "Substrate that makes it easy for AIs to make architecture decisions like the operator does" section operationalizing operator's directive via 5-question filter - Composition with 8 substrate items + 11 framework rules - 5-step operational discipline for substrate-engineering work - Substrate-honest framing: NOT mandate of only-pattern; composes with framework rules; helps AIs make aligned decisions not operator-replacement - Substrate-inventory pass per verify-existing-substrate rule (no prior cross-scope rule; mint-new authorized) The constitutional framing: substrate that propagates operator's architecture-decision-shape to AI instances.

…-just-T rule + B-0862 implementation decomposition row (operator 2026-05-27 'agree' + 'both' confirmation) (#5518) Constitutional substrate-engineering extension to the framework's CORE OPLE primitives (Observe, Persist, Limit, Emit) cascading today's monad-propagation cluster + asymmetric-authorship + Prism's iterator/generator-asymmetry insight back to framework-primitive scope. Operator directive: > "that means our core observe, emit, limit the emit needs to surface > not just T but T, TFeedback" Followed by ship-confirmation: > "agree" / "both" (re: ship rule landing principle + backlog row > decomposing implementation work) RULE: ople-primitives-surface-t-and-tfeedback-not-just-t-asymmetric-authorship-at-framework-primitive-scope.md Names the principle: framework's CORE OPLE primitives surface T AND TFeedback (not just T). Each primitive carries its own authorial feedback channel. The substrate-engineering consequence of asymmetric-authorship cascaded back to CORE primitives. Rule body adds: - 4-row OPLE primitive extension table (Observe / Persist / Limit / Emit) with TFeedback domain per primitive - 5-point why-constitutional analysis - BEFORE/AFTER substrate-engineering shape comparison - 6-row empirical-anchor table mapping today's substrate landings (PR #5505 through #5517) to OPLE-T-TFeedback consequences - Composition with 11 framework rules + substrate - Operational discipline for invoking OPLE primitives + authoring new primitives that compose - Substrate-honest framing: opportunistic migration; preserves Mika's OPLE substrate origin; per-language instantiation handled per monad-propagation-pattern rule ROW: B-0862 (P1) — implementation decomposition into 10 sub-rows: - B-0862.1 TFeedback discriminated-union types in F# - B-0862.2 Observe primitive extension - B-0862.3 Persist primitive extension - B-0862.4 Limit primitive extension - B-0862.5 Emit primitive extension - B-0862.6 Framework substrate migration (opportunistic per-PR) - B-0862.7 Cross-language substrate (TS/SQL/C++) - B-0862.8 Spec-to-code generation target - B-0862.9 F# computation-expression ergonomics (ople { ... } block) - B-0862.10 ConvFeedback variant overlap with B-0861 Priority P1 — constitutional substrate; opportunistic migration as substrate-engineering work touches OPLE invocations. Both compose with the full 2026-05-27 substrate-engineering cluster (PRs #5488 through #5517). BACKLOG.md regenerated for B-0862 entry. Co-authored-by: Lior <lior@zeta.dev>
