+# --- Attendant-baked seed ---------------------------------------------------
+# bin/attendant.sh pre-bakes a context snapshot tar every warm cycle
+# (_prebake_context). When the bake is fresh and its provenance matches, reuse
+# its purely graph-bound results — todos, lifecycle, pulse, service health —
+# and run every collector with local git/file inputs live below (handoffs,
+# quests, activity, soul, addressed, questions, team presence, metrics), so
+# everything file/git-derived reflects this instant. Purely graph-derived
+# fields are then at most one warm cycle stale, and the boot path pays
+# near-zero blocking graph round-trips (live collectors ride the warm cache).
+#
+# The seed is trusted only when ALL of these hold — otherwise fall back to a
+# full live gather:
+#   - the tar extracts cleanly (atomic rename on the writer side means we see
+#     a whole bake or none, never a half-written directory)
+#   - .baked-author matches this session's author (shared machines)
+#   - .baked-local-mode matches this session's mode (a connected bake must
+#     not leak graph data into a session that switched to local)
+#   - .baked-config matches this checkout's egregore.json (org/API repoint,
+#     or a worktree branch carrying a different config)
+#   - .baked-scope matches the EFFECTIVE endpoint/credential fingerprint
+#     (EGREGORE_API_URL/KEY overrides can point at a different tenant than
+#     the committed config names)
+#   - .baked-schema matches this checkout's context.sh revision (a bake from
+#     another collector schema may be missing or misformatting files)
+#   - .baked-ts is numeric, not in the future, and younger than 15min
+#   - every seeded collector's file actually landed in CTX_DIR (a partial
+#     copy must not suppress live collectors)
