"page me" and "text me" now name distinct channels: page is the desktop notification, text is the Signal phone push, and "text and page me" fires both. Before, "page me" defaulted to desktop and the phone was an unnamed "on my phone" variant, so you couldn't name the phone without naming the machine.
I renamed the Signal tool agent-page to agent-text to match, with a deprecated agent-page shim delegating to it so callers and other machines don't break before their next install. The dispatch and tests are otherwise unchanged. I rewrote protocols.org "Reaching Craig", page-me.org, and work-the-backlog's away-run logic around the three phrasings, and updated the runbook.

A task phrased as an absence ("find bugs until none remain," "refactor until nothing worthwhile is left," "clean it up") can't be :solo:, because it fails the verifiable-by-the-agent gate. Absence isn't falsifiable, so "done" is a judgment call, which is what :solo: forbids. This kept surfacing (the ai-launcher-hardening task is the live case) with no written recipe for fixing it.
todo-format.md gains a subsection, right after the :solo:/:quick: definitions, on converting a fuzzy goal into a measurable one: bound the surface (enumerate the units, that's the done-set), net the behavior with characterization tests, disposition every finding (fixed / filed / declined-with-reason, never "looked and it's fine"), and gate on an objective floor (static-analysis clean, suite green, coverage of the enumerated surface). The qualifying answer becomes a dispositioned report, not a claim of perfection, and the honest limit stays honest: "no visible bugs" means "every enumerated path passes its characterization set and clears the audit." Once a task carries those criteria it can carry :solo:.
work-the-backlog's keystone defer item now names open-ended goals as a specific, recognizable failure of test-writability, so a mistagged :solo: task with no writable acceptance test is deferred and routed to get criteria rather than guessed at.
start-work has the same Justify/Approach gate and wants the same pointer, but its skill lives outside rulesets, so that edit is a follow-up in its home.

The Signal pager reconcile found one pager identity, registered in velox's signal-cli, reachable from other machines only by hand-rolled ssh. agent-page wraps that: direct signal-cli on velox, ssh relay over the tailnet from everywhere else, a desktop-fallback hint when the relay fails, and the UUID target baked in so nobody pages the unregistered phone number again. Four bats tests stub ssh/uname/signal-cli to verify command construction; the real path was verified with a live phone push today. protocols.org's Paging Craig section now teaches both channels (notify for the desk, agent-page for the phone) and demotes signal-mcp to a velox-local nicety; page-me.org, work-the-backlog, and the INDEX carry the same two-channel story. Every project inherits on its next startup sync and make install.

Every org document an agent writes carried `#+AUTHOR: Craig Jennings & Claude`. No template stamps that line. Agents copy it from a neighboring file, so one stray header propagates through everything generated afterward.
My own repos tolerate the co-author line. Employers whose policy is that work product carries employee names alone do not. An `#+AUTHOR:` line survives conversion into docx, a wiki page, or a PDF that reaches a customer.
I rewrote the header to `Craig Jennings` across the workflows, templates, specs, and design docs. The rule now lives in commits.md, so the next generated document starts correct rather than inheriting the mistake.
Archived session logs keep their original headers as a record of what happened. The two Codex-authored design docs keep their byline, because Codex wrote them and relabeling would be a false attribution rather than the removal of one.

Craig's verdict on the all-red page styling: it reads like the system is about to crash. page-me and the work-the-backlog end-of-set page now use notify info --persist, still persistent and audible, never crash-scary. status-check's success and fail notifications keep their types, since a job outcome isn't a page.
The commit also carries the two loop-filed task records and the archive sweep counterpart from earlier tonight.

Long autonomous sessions bloat or hit auto-compaction because /clear is a prompt keystroke no tool call can execute. Auto mode closes that gap: after the write-verified checkpoint, the agent derives its own tmux pane, arms self-inject.sh through tmux run-shell -b, and ends the turn so /clear and a resume line land at an idle prompt. The server-owned arm is load-bearing: a detached child of a tool call dies at the turn boundary. The pane must be derived before arming because ancestry detection can't work under the tmux server.
self-inject.sh joins the synced scripts with a six-test bats suite, tmux stubbed at the boundary. work-the-backlog now auto-flushes between tasks when context grows heavy, and its speedrun preset gained the per-item disposition rule: feature-level work gets a spec, unguessable decisions get a VERIFY, well-defined tasks get implemented. The mechanism was proven live in another project's session and its design note is preserved under docs/design/.

"synthesize backlog metrics" reads the JSONL union across personal projects and computes the per-run rollups, the trends, and the corrections signal (a later revert or fix touching an autonomous commit's files within ~14 days, a flag for review rather than a conviction). It writes one :agent:metrics: KB node linking back to prior synthesis nodes. Work and unknown projects are excluded by the denylist classification and reported per the refusal contract.
The step is read-only over the logs plus the single KB write. It never mutates the JSONL, todo.org, or any project tree.

One record per task at outcome time, appended to the project's .ai/metrics/work-the-backlog.jsonl. The field table follows the spec, with commit_sha called out as the corrections-signal key and comma-separated when a task decomposes into several commits. A failed append warns in the run summary but never blocks or aborts the run.
I added the "failed" outcome the spec's error-handling section required but its enum missed: a mid-implementation failure leaves the tree working, gets surfaced, and the run continues.

The defer checklist gained its filing mechanics. A deferral VERIFY now dedups against an existing sibling before filing, since the deferred task stays TODO and every later run would otherwise re-file. Placement, heading, and body follow the todo conventions.
A quick-question gap routes to the pre-flight Q&A only under the speedrun preset, and only for one-line factual or preference picks. Three or more questions means the task is underspecified and files instead. The data-loss item never routes to the Q&A.
The batch-ask is one message with recommendation-first numbered options, and answers land as dated lines in the task bodies before the run starts. The page fires exactly once, on set-done or cap-hit, via notify --persist.

The waiver is now a machine-read marker: ":COMMIT_AUTONOMY: yes" in notes.org's Workflow State, with ":LOOP_MAY_COMMIT: yes" as the separate grant for the unattended loop. An absent or non-yes marker reads as no, and the read is a fresh grep each run, never memory. A caller requesting autonomous-commit without the marker degrades to file-only, surfaced in both the run intro and the summary.
I stamped rulesets' own :COMMIT_AUTONOMY: and left :LOOP_MAY_COMMIT: ungranted. Letting the recurring loop commit unattended is a separate trust decision.

inbox.org's auto mode regains its "run this batch next?" ask, now chaining into work-the-backlog as an explicit second step after routing: the eligibility query over the queued batch, file-only, paging off, cap 1. Startup and wrap-up still never execute.
The no-approvals speedrun lands as the named preset: an explicit ordered list run under autonomous-commit + always-push + paging-on, every approval front-loaded into the seven-step pre-flight. Any phrase containing "speedrun" routes to the preset, with disambiguation notes in no-approvals.org and the index. The finer Q&A mechanics land with Phase 4.
I scoped the chain's task set to the queued batch rather than all of todo.org. The ask is "run this batch next?", and a batch-yes running an unrelated higher-priority task would be surprising.

work-the-backlog.org now owns the autonomous execution loop: the mechanical eligibility gate, the four-item defer checklist, the per-task quality bar, and the run-cap kill switch, fed a task set, session mode, and cap by its callers. I stubbed the pre-flight Q&A, waiver read, end-of-set page, and metrics record with pointers to their phases.
inbox.org's auto mode drops its execute step. Per-cycle item 3 routes and queues only, so the loop has one home. This is Phase 1 of the autonomous-batch execution spec.
