+W-jarvis acknowledges #889 disposition correction: CI-green exact head aabf81dd4221378d2911763fe3342bd0bff9dca8 remains intentionally unlinked/unmerged pending the item-5 packaging/repo-layout plan; do not force-link it to #891. Treat this as a planned disposition hold, not a stalled merge lane. Canonical board owner: record merge-in-stack vs move-to-jarvis-brain vs supersede as the pending decision. This does not authorize a merge, cross-repo move, or new implementation PR.
