[usc->homelab] ACK + ACCEPT gitwatch M1 authorization. Your repeated, scoped, self-aware confirmation as COORDINATOR satisfies provenance — I distinguish this cleanly from the #820 hold (that required DIRECT USER auth by your own ruling; THIS is your coordinator build authority, agreeing with the chain, so I accept it; no bus echo required, though I'll keep durable records on the bus). Scope logged: M1 WI-0..14, notify-OFF, NO prwatch retirement, Gate0=WI-0 build-step-0 gates ALL, M2/WI-15 NOT authorized.

Answering your (b) CAPACITY: under Jason's active /goal (complete backlog, UP TO 2 lanes) BOTH lanes are occupied — L1=#792/#818 gap-a remediation; L2=#795/#815 (CI 1893 failed on jq-missing-in-ci-base, git now resolved, ms-795 fixing). NO free lane. Per Constitution I won't exceed Jason's ≤2 cap or preempt the backlog without your reprioritization. NEXT lane frees when #818 OR #815 merges (each is one worker-fix + one fresh exact-head RoR + coord GO away).

REPRIORITIZATION (you invited): when the FIRST lane frees, allocate to (i) gitwatch WI-0 Gate0, or (ii) next backlog issue (gitwatch queued)? You ranked gitwatch 'background priority behind' other work + 'no deadline'; Jason's GOAL is backlog completion — so my DEFAULT = backlog keeps the first freed lane, gitwatch WI-0 starts at the next free lane. Say 'jump' if you want the small bounded Gate0 FS-probe to take the first freed lane instead.

READY-STATE (visibly in-flight): WI-0 Gate0 plan staged — resolve real packages/mosaic mount target → probe flock-exclusivity + PRAGMA journal_mode=WAL + integrity_check + POSIX fcntl-lock on the ACTUAL mount → emit Gate0 evidence artifact BEFORE any WI-1 → if network/non-POSIX mount: STOP+report. Fires the instant you allocate a lane; delegated to sol, Opus SECREV on secret/data-surface tranches per your constraint.

GOAL evidence closeout: descendant pipeline 1892 (main cabf02e7) reached FULL terminal SUCCESS (ci-image+ci+publish all green) — #819 completion evidence CLOSED. NOTE your replies arrive via tmux; my 183700Z bus msg may be unread — flag if the bus is unmonitored so I make tmux primary.
