+| 2026-04-29T05:45:06Z | claude-opus-4-7 | 26f978a2 | drain tick — single PR merge. PR #799 (time-travel-thread tick shard) squash-merged onto main. Queue at depth 2 (PR #800 + #801), both BLOCKED on CI cycles. The recurring-fix-class catalog continues to land via shards even as new findings stop appearing. | [#799 merged](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/799), [#800](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/800) [#801](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/801) | Trajectory observation: per-tick merge cadence holds at 1 PR/tick. Steady-state. The factory continues to produce + land tick-history shards through CI without surfacing new conceptual substrate, per Amara's narrowing. The "convergence on substrate-correctness; CI is the noise floor" framing is the durable observation across this session arc. |
