Steady-state continues. | [#800 merged](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/800), [#801](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/801) [#802](https://github.com/Lucent-Financial-Group/Zeta/pull/802) | Trajectory observation: per-tick merge cadence at 1 PR/tick. Steady-state operational drain. Aaron's autonomy-first framing upheld throughout the session. The tick-history shards continue to land cleanly and the per-shard count is now well past 30 in this 2026-04-29 day's directory.
