Changes

Remove artificial two/three-attempt validator termination; persist read-only retries with exponential backoff.
Repair orphaned authorized next steps through existing admission, without worker effect replay.
Pace successful but unevidenced correction loops, releasing capacity while waiting; no lifetime continuation cap.
Atomically persist diagnostic events with assessment checkpoints and dedup receipts.
Preserve scope, deadlines, approvals, manual stops, unknown worker-effect fences and legacy explicit reset.

Verification at main `212961f`

Regular npm run build passes, including plugin materialization and assets.
Sequential tests: 59/59 passed.
Full candidate suite: 1629 tests, 1619 pass, 9 fail, 1 skip.
Fresh unchanged baseline: 1613 tests, 1603 pass, 9 fail, 1 skip. Exact same failure names: unavailable Matrix native module and directory-permission assertion. No candidate-only failures.
Typecheck and git diff --check pass.

Release

Not deployed. Use existing protected integration, publisher and distinct deployment integrator. A local build does not activate agents. Recent 64-receipt novelty window is a bounded cost safeguard, not a proof of semantic progress.
