Summary

Extends the pull-queue rule per Aaron's 2026-04-28T18:05Z correction:
Tick close — no new push-signal; should be a queue to pull / in the future too.

The rule was already landed earlier today, but I closed ~5 ticks afterward
with the same 'no new push-signal' framing. Aaron's correction:

  1. Pull-queue is broader than 'open PR review threads' — includes
    stale fork-PR queue, open issues, BACKLOG.md rows, recent CI runs,
    external signals (peer-CLI, Amara ferries), TodoWrite tasks.
  2. 'No new push-signal' framing IS the failure-mode language — replace
    with 'pulled queue: ' or 'pulled queue: nothing to act on'.
  3. Future-Otto must inherit — the rule lives durably in this file
    via MEMORY.md index.

Concrete queue-pull this tick found substantial deferred work:

- 2026-04-27T23:58:00Z — #651 + #654 LFG merge + EAT PR #72 on AceHack
  (rescued from local commit 318d19f which never landed via PR before
  hard-reset to origin/main lost it; the 23:58Z row was 38KB substantive
  content about manufactured-patience anti-pattern + branch-protection

  evidence discipline landed durably + LFG #661 NEUTRAL umbrella
  mechanism diagnosed primary-source-grounded + PR #662 opened to
  honestly include Java in CodeQL surface. (This row was on origin/main
  already from earlier in the session; preserved as-is.)

… row

The 23:58Z row rescued from local commit 318d19f had a trailing `| |`
(extra empty 7th cell vs the 6-cell format). Markdownlint MD056 caught
it on PR #674. This is likely why 318d19f never landed via PR —
same lint failure when originally pushed.

Fix: drop one trailing pipe so the row has exactly 6 cells matching
the rest of the table.

EVIDENCE-BASED: VERIFIED via gh api jobs/73443618657/logs showing
exact MD056 error 'Expected: 6; Actual: 7; Too many cells'.

Aaron's correction this turn extends the pull-queue rule:

- The pull-queue is broader than 'open PR review threads' — includes
  stale fork-PR queue, open issues, BACKLOG.md rows, recent CI runs,
  external signals (peer-CLI, Amara ferries), TodoWrite tasks.
- The framing 'no new push-signal' IS the failure-mode language;
  replace with 'pulled queue: <findings>' or 'pulled queue: nothing
  to act on'.
- 'In the future too' — future-Otto MUST inherit this. The rule lives
  durably in this file via the MEMORY.md index.

Concrete pull this tick (which I had been missing) found:
- PR #659 with 49 unresolved threads
- PR #661 BLOCKED/MERGEABLE with 0 threads (low-hanging)
- 5 P1 issues open on LFG
- Multiple in-progress TodoWrite tasks

EVIDENCE-BASED:
- VERIFIED — gh api graphql query against PR #659 returned 50 threads,
  49 unresolved.
- VERIFIED — gh issue list returned 5 open P1 issues (#78-#82).

… lint fix)

Paired-edit lint requires MEMORY.md to be modified IN THE SAME PR as
any memory/*.md change. PR #675 modified the pull-queue feedback memory
but the prior paired-edit marker (from PR #671) wasn't itself modified
in this PR, so the same-commit-or-same-PR pairing failed.

Fix: bump the marker to reference PR #675. The MEMORY.md file is now
modified in this PR per the lint requirement.

EVIDENCE-BASED: VERIFIED via gh api jobs/73446862296/logs showing exact
lint message 'memory/MEMORY.md NOT updated alongside the memory changes
above'.

Pull request overview

Updates durable “pull-queue” guidance to reflect the broader scope of what must be actively polled each tick, and records the recurrence note so future wakes inherit the corrected framing.

Changes:

  • Expands the “everything else is pull” rule with a broader queue definition (PRs, issues, backlog rows, CI runs, external signals, TodoWrite).
  • Replaces the “no new push-signal” tick-close phrasing with “pulled queue: …” framing.
  • Appends new tick-history rows capturing late-April operational episodes and follow-on actions.

Aaron substrate-input arc captured verbatim:
- Elizabeth canonical-spelling correction
- Atari ROM canonical-naming ask
- TOSEC/Good-Tools dependency-first framing
- 'build-our-own as last resort' end-goal sharpening
- 'did you fix what it was complaining about?' speculation-catch
- 'do the right long term thing' corrective
- self-healing metrics affirmation
- elisabeth-causes-confusion §33 carve-out

Multiple self-correction cascades caught + documented:
- Python-heredoc replace failing on backtick-rich content
- Block-quoted-verbatim guard missing multi-line quotes
- Single-category SARIF snippet vs live per-language matrix
- Self-referential rule containing the word it removes

Composes with: 5-disciplines memory, self-healing-metrics memory,
emit-empty-security-result memory, absorb-and-contribute end-goal
sharpening, Elizabeth §33 carve-out, version-currency-inherits-pins.
