+## sage-4210 — new-test async citation fixture fix
+
+Only C2-05b now inlines send/wait, awaits thread.messages before .find, and
+keeps the from_role assistant / to_role human assertions previously provided
+by ask. Comment names broker.mjs:4854 async citation hydration. Existing ask,
+old tests and production unchanged. This is Sage's own-new-test ruling under
+mos-1590; Dewey re-reviews the delta. Whole-file rerun once authorized, then
+the nine other files, whole bus/harness, M-B1 and clean-tree check on green.
+Each gets a fresh shell gXXX TMPDIR and absolute nice 19; any red stops.
