 1. *Status is =TODO=* — never =VERIFY=, =DOING=, =DONE=, or =CANCELLED=. =VERIFY= marks "awaiting Craig's input"; auto-implementing one defeats the check it represents. The do-not-implement set is safe-by-omission: anything not plainly =TODO= (plus any project-declared "hold" marker) is out.
 2. *Tagged =:solo:=* — the autonomy tag, resolved against the project's priority/tag scheme header in =todo.org= (never hardcoded). =:solo:= carries the hard definition in =todo-format.md=: completable and verifiable without Craig beyond at most one or two quick decisions answerable up front, no design deliberation. A project whose scheme declares a different autonomous-safe tag set overrides the default.
 
+Terminology: *speedrunnable means tagged =:solo:=*. It does not mean =:quick:= or require =:quick:solo:=. The =TODO= status check above is the execution-state gate over that speedrunnable set.

 Priority and =:next:= drive *ordering* within the eligible set, not eligibility ([#A] before [#B] before [#C], then the author's ordering). =:quick:= is an effort hint for batching and duration estimates — never a gate.
 
 Task *size* is deliberately absent from this gate. A large but well-specified, decision-free task is in scope and gets decomposed into per-logical-commit chunks during implementation. Size never sends a task away; only *deliberation* or *risk* does (the checklist below).
