+- 2026-04-01T12:29:10+02:00 — 2026-04-01 issue #357: President supervision now hard-skips hibernated rigs before any start, refresh, or wake decision, so actionable-no-forward-motion, pending-plan-underfilled, and Ralph checks cannot trigger manual-refresh|rig=<rig> or restart mayor/<rig> while the rig remains hibernated. Regression coverage: test_president_runtime_supervision.sh.
+- 2026-04-01T12:29:13+02:00 — 2026-04-01 issue #366: when Ralph keeps completion pending, plan-state completion.acceptance now mirrors the effective status and clears live terminal fields; declared terminal acceptance metadata is preserved under completion.acceptance.declared_* for operator forensics. Regression coverage: test_ralph_mode_config_and_state.sh.
+- 2026-04-01T12:29:33+02:00 — 2026-04-01 issue #378: _president_supervise_rig_mayor now hard-skips hibernated rigs before any start/refresh/wake decision, so President cannot restart or poke mayor/<rig> while manual hibernation remains active. Regression coverage in test_president_runtime_supervision.sh and test_president_runtime_latest_main_proof.sh asserts no refresh, wake, or mayor start on a hibernated rig.
+- 2026-04-01T12:30:26+02:00 — 2026-04-01 issue #356: added explicit regression coverage in test_plan_tick_duplicate_closeout_successor_refresh.sh for the duplicate-closeout refill case. A completed task with stale duplicate-closed lineage now proves two fences together: unchanged task signatures stay completed via merged lineage retention, while materially changed task payloads clear stale completion bookkeeping and dispatch a fresh successor instead of relaunching the killed duplicate lane.
+- 2026-04-01T12:30:37+02:00 — 2026-04-01 issue #379: while Ralph keeps a rig pending, plan-state now rewrites completion.acceptance.status to the effective pending status and preserves stale terminal acceptance metadata under completion.acceptance.declared_* so verified/blocked drift cannot make successor work look done.
+- 2026-04-01T12:31:03+02:00 — 2026-04-01 issue #377: _resling_pre_dispatch_revalidate now falls back to REST issue/pull endpoints when gh issue view or gh pr view flakes, so mayor stranded-rig recovery can still spawn workers from already-open sgt-authorized queues during GraphQL/live-query failures.
+- 2026-04-01T12:36:39+02:00 — 2026-04-01 issue #379: _plan_state_snapshot must preserve the live pending Ralph override from plan-state when completion.rollup is ralph-* or Ralph says completion is blocked; otherwise re-sync from SGT_PLAN.json can reintroduce stale verified/blocked acceptance and make successor work look terminal again.
+- 2026-04-01T12:37:14+02:00 — 2026-04-01 issue #379: _plan_state_snapshot now applies the live Ralph completion override immediately, so plan-state cannot briefly rehydrate stale verified/blocked terminal acceptance while Ralph remains unmet; _plan_state_update_completion also preserves incoming completion.acceptance.declared_* forensic metadata instead of stripping it on the pending rewrite. Regression coverage in test_ralph_mode_config_and_state.sh now covers stale blocked metadata as well as verified metadata.
