+7. **Every invocation is short-lived — except for two named
+   interactive readers.** mu is a CLI: each verb starts, mutates
+   or reads, prints, and exits. There is no daemon, no resident
+   state outside SQLite, no background process. Two verbs are
+   deliberately and narrowly exempt because they are interactive
+   *readers*, not background workers:
+
+   - `mu log --tail` — polls SQLite once per second; emits NDJSON
+     until SIGINT or the parent closes stdin.
+   - the TUI dashboard — rendered by `mu state --tui` explicitly or
+     by bare `mu` when stdout is attached to a TTY, until the user
+     quits with `q`/`Ctrl-C`. Plain `mu state` keeps the static-card
+     behaviour; non-TTY bare `mu` prints help instead of entering Ink.
+
+   Both share the same shape, and the shape is the predicate that
+   bounds the exception:
+
+   - **Interactive, not a daemon.** The process is owned by a
+     human (or a parent script) and dies the moment that owner
+     ends it. Nothing keeps it alive across sessions; nothing
+     restarts it.
+   - **Read-only against SQLite.** Neither verb writes. The TUI's
+     act-intents (claim, close, send, ...) yank the canonical
+     `mu <verb>` command into the clipboard and exit the
+     dashboard; every mutation still lands through a fresh
+     short-lived CLI invocation.
+   - **No resources beyond stdout, stdin, and a poll timer.** No
+     sockets, no file watches, no subscriptions to external
+     services, no spawned subprocesses, no inter-process state
+     beyond the SQLite reads any other CLI invocation already
+     does.
+   - **Human-TTY gated, with static/script fallbacks.** The TUI mode
+     activates when `--tui` is passed to `mu state` or when bare `mu`
+     sees `process.stdout.isTTY === true`. Default `mu state` prints
+     the static card. Non-interactive callers (pipes, CI, `--json`, or
+     `MU_NO_TUI=1`) never enter the TUI.
+
+   This is not a precedent for any other long-lived process. The
+   anti-feature pledges in [ROADMAP.md](ROADMAP.md) ("no daemon,
+   watcher, or background process beyond what tmux / SQLite give
+   us") remain in force; a third member of this exception class
+   would need its own promotion.
