+# PR #5772: feat(B-0914.6): proximity-agent substrate-engineering substrate de-duplication (canonical-form + Jaccard clustering); 19 tests pass
+
+## PR description
+
+## Summary
+
+Google co-scientist proximity agent pattern generalized to TS-side substrate. Two de-dup mechanisms: canonical-form normalization (deterministic) + Jaccard-similarity clustering (lightweight; no embedding model).
+
+**19 tests pass / 0 fail.**

+
+## Pull request overview
+
+Adds a TypeScript proximity de-duplication substrate for workflow-engine experiments, supporting deterministic canonical-form clustering and lightweight Jaccard/token similarity clustering for near-duplicate hypotheses before ranking/evolution/CI dispatch.
+
+**Changes:**
+- Adds `proximity.ts` with Result-shaped clustering APIs, tokenization, Jaccard similarity, and representative extraction.
+- Adds `proximity.test.ts` with 19 Bun tests covering canonical clustering, similarity clustering, tokenizer behavior, errors, and evolution-substrate composition.

+## Review threads
+
+### Thread 1: tools/workflow-engine/proximity.ts:23 (resolved)
+
+**@copilot-pull-request-reviewer** (2026-05-28T11:30:45Z):
+
+P1 xref: this docblock references a “B-0914.6 backlog row”, but `docs/backlog/` has no `B-0914.6` row in this checkout. Either add the row in this PR or remove/adjust this cross-reference so the new substrate does not point readers at a non-existent backlog artifact.
+
+### Thread 2: tools/workflow-engine/proximity.ts:63 (resolved)
+
+**@copilot-pull-request-reviewer** (2026-05-28T11:30:46Z):
+
+`Cluster` is returned by both canonical and similarity clustering, but this field is documented as the canonical-form key even though `clusterBySimilarity` fills it with a synthesized similarity label derived from representative tokens. Rename/generalize the field or adjust the contract so callers do not treat similarity results as canonical-form keys.
