+**Step 7: Deterministic merge**
+
+Skip entirely if `$ISOLATION == "none"` — nothing was worktree-isolated,
+there is nothing to merge (executors already committed to the primary
+checkout in Step 6).
+
+**Merge rounds.** Repeat until no wave has a mergeable prefix left (bounded
+by `$ITEM_COUNT` rounds):
+
+1. For each DISTINCT `wave` value present among items that are
+   `status == "pending"` with a `${item_dir}/${quick_id}-SUMMARY.md` on disk
+   (executor returned) and NOT yet merged: build `$WAVE_ORDER_JSON` — the
+   `quick_id`s of every item AT THAT WAVE, in `$BATCH_MANIFEST_JSON.items`
+   array order (this IS the order `computeWaves`/`partitionByFileOverlap`
+   assigned — never re-sort it).
+
+2. Build `$READY_JSON` — the subset of that wave's items whose
+   `SUMMARY.md` already exists (an executor may still be mid-flight for a
+   sibling in the same wave; row 33 — merges happen strictly in wave order,
+   an out-of-order finisher waits):

+   Parse `mergeable` — the PREFIX of `$WAVE_ORDER_JSON` currently mergeable.
+   If empty, skip this wave this round (its first item hasn't finished yet).
+
+3. **Build the cleanup-wave manifest for `mergeable`, IN THAT ORDER** — fresh
+   from each item's own PLAN.md, never from `BATCH.json`'s `planned_files`
+   alone (Open Question 2's accepted resolution). `$mergeable` is a bash
+   ARRAY (parsed from the JSON `mergeable` array) — never a plain
+   space-joined string, which re-splits unpredictably between bash and zsh
+   (#4109):
+   ```bash
+   for quick_id in "${mergeable[@]}"; do
+     PLAN_CONTENT=$(cat "${ITEM_DIR}/${quick_id}-PLAN.md")
+     ENTRY_JSON=$(gsd_run quick-batch cleanup-entry \
+       --agent-id "agent-${quick_id}" \
+       --worktree-path "$WT_PATH" \
+       --branch "$WT_BRANCH" \
+       --expected-base "$EXPECTED_BASE" \
+       --allowed-bases '["'"$EXPECTED_BASE"'"]' \
+       --plan-content "$PLAN_CONTENT" --raw)
+     # append $ENTRY_JSON to the merge manifest's "entries" array, in order
+   done
+   ```
+   (`$WT_PATH`/`$WT_BRANCH`/`$EXPECTED_BASE` per item come from the recorded
+   `$QUICK_BATCH_WORKTREE_MANIFEST` entry Step 6 wrote for that `agent_id`
+   THIS process, when present.
+
+   **Durable fallback (#3677):** for an item Step 6 did NOT dispatch this
+   process — the crash-window guard correctly skipped it because
+   `SUMMARY.md` already existed from a PRIOR, now-dead coordinator process —
+   `$QUICK_BATCH_WORKTREE_MANIFEST` has no entry for it at all (it is a
+   fresh per-process `mktemp` file). Read `$WT_PATH`/`$WT_BRANCH`/
+   `$EXPECTED_BASE` from that item's OWN durable
+   `dispatched_worktree`/`dispatched_branch`/`dispatched_base` fields in
+   `$BATCH_MANIFEST_JSON` instead — persisted by Step 6's own durable-
+   persistence step at the time it actually created the worktree, in
+   whichever process that was. If ALL THREE are still `null` (the item was
+   never durably recorded — should not happen once Step 6 always persists
+   on dispatch, but fail closed rather than guess): route this entry via
+   `merge-routing --kind merge_failed --detail "missing durable worktree
+   record"` the same as any other blocked entry below, and do NOT attempt
+   the cleanup-wave call for it.)
+
+4. **Merge, one at a time, via the SAME bounded primitive every other worktree
+   consumer uses** (never hand-roll `git merge`):
+   ```bash
+   QB_CLEANUP_RESULT=$(gsd_run query worktree.cleanup-wave --manifest "$MERGE_MANIFEST_PATH" --raw) || true
+   ```
+   `executeWorktreeWaveCleanupPlan` isolates each entry's failure by default
+   (a blocked entry does not stop the rest of the manifest) except the one
+   carve-out where the repo is left genuinely mid-merge, which halts the
+   remaining entries in THIS manifest — resume picks them up on the next
+   round/invocation.
+
+5. **Route each entry's result:**
+   - `status == "merged_removed"`: success. Mark the item's completion pending
+     (Step 9 calls `quick-batch complete` for it — do NOT call it here; a
+     `--validate` item still has verification ahead of it). **Clear the
+     durable worktree-recovery fields now (#3677)** — the worktree no
+     longer exists on disk, so its `dispatched_worktree`/`dispatched_branch`/
+     `dispatched_base` must not keep pointing at a removed path:
+     ```bash
+     gsd_run quick-batch update --batch "$BATCH_ID" --updates '[{"quickId":"'"$quick_id"'","dispatchedWorktree":null,"dispatchedBranch":null,"dispatchedBase":null}]'
+     ```
+   - Any other status: route via
+     ```bash
+     gsd_run quick-batch merge-routing --kind merge_failed --detail "$reason" --raw
+     ```
+     (or `--kind scope_violation` when `$reason` names an undeclared
+     deletion — `partitionDeclaredDeletions`'s own guard). The routing result
+     always carries `preserveWorktree: true` — do NOT remove the worktree or
+     branch for this item; leave it for diagnosis (row 28/34/35). Do NOT call
+     `quick-batch complete` for it. Continue with the rest of the batch (row
+     33 — unrelated items are unaffected).
+
+Continue to Step 9 (`--validate` routes through the verification step first)
+once every wave with a mergeable prefix has been processed this round.

+**Step 4: Per-DAG-layer planning**

+planner discovering a dependency on a sibling item (row 14/15/22/23)
+RECOMPUTES waves for the whole batch via `quick-batch update` after each
+layer, so a later layer can genuinely differ from what `quick-batch create`
+originally assigned (row 11's documented negative space: everything starts
+in wave 0 before any signal exists).
+
+**Loop, bounded by `$ITEM_COUNT` iterations (fail-safe, mirrors
+`resumeBatch`'s own fixed-point bound) — repeat until no item is both
+`pending` and missing a PLAN.md:**

+   item's `description`, same as every other step). Call this `$CUR_WAVE`.

+   `gsd_run query frontmatter.get "${item_dir}/${quick_id}-PLAN.md" depends_on`
+   and `... files_modified`, then:
+   ```bash
+   QB_UPDATE_JSON=$(gsd_run quick-batch update --batch "$BATCH_ID" --updates "$LAYER_UPDATES_JSON" --raw)
+   ```
+   `$LAYER_UPDATES_JSON` is a JSON array of `{quickId, dependsOn, plannedFiles}`
+   objects, one per item planned this round. **If this call fails** (an
+   unknown dependency reference, or a cycle a planner's declared `depends_on`
+   introduced): the update did NOT persist — report the CLI's error, mark the
+   offending item(s) `failed` via a corrective `quick-batch update` with an
+   empty `dependsOn` for those items instead (never leave the batch
+   unrecoverable), and continue.
+
+   Refresh `$BATCH_MANIFEST_JSON` from `$QB_UPDATE_JSON.manifest` before the
+   next loop iteration — wave numbers may have changed (row 22-23).
+
+Continue to Step 6 once the loop above finds no more unplanned pending items.
