-items. This is standing authority to remove an orphan after salvage when every
-owning Dispatch and descendant is settled, ownership and liveness are rechecked
+items. A sweep may remove resources of ANY Axstack run on this host after salvage
+when every owning Dispatch and descendant is settled (completed or failed), its
+release is confirmed or `release_unknown`, no agent is working, the exact terminal
+has had no output for at least 60 minutes, ownership and liveness are rechecked
 from a fresh native list, and evidence is durable. Remove descendants first.
+For a settled worker dispatched into a shared or driver worktree, close its
+exact terminal individually under the same 60-minute quiet rule: native close,
+else the guarded `/quit` + `exit` fallback above. Never close the live coordinator
+session's terminal for any run (the driver's own terminal) or a user chat.
+Align/Spec adviser sessions reused between rounds remain until
+their owning phase approves or stops; the quiet rule still applies then.
+For a merged or closed PR author with an unreleased settled Dispatch, request
+native worker release first, record its result, then apply the sweep guards.
+An author worktree of a merged or closed PR is sweep-eligible when its head
+commit is retrievable from the forge (for example, the PR's recorded head or a
+remote branch contains it); unverifiable state is a hold. For an eligible
+author worktree, salvage first if dirty, under the preservation guards above.
