+| 2026-04-29T05:28:44Z | claude-opus-4-7 | 26f978a2 | twenty-fourth tick — single PR merge. PR #790 (twenty-first tick / PR #787 merged + transient-CI-flake recovery shard) squash-merged onto main. PR-merge count continues across the session arc (see prior shards for cumulative narrative; per-shard counts have drifted historically and the running total in any individual shard should be treated as approximate). Queue at depth 2 (PR #791 + #792), both BLOCKED on CI cycles. Steady-state operational drain continues. | [#790 merged](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/790), [#791](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/791) [#792](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/792) | Trajectory observation: per-tick merge cadence is now 1 PR / tick on average — the upstream wave has cleared, the queue runs down without surfacing new threads or fixes. Aaron's autonomy-first framing remains upheld: nothing this tick beyond mechanical drain, no new conceptual substrate opened. The post-substrate-completion phase is operating exactly as Amara's narrowing prescribed. |
