A lease is a pipeline: `integrate --slice <id> --apply-to-control` lands one green sibling onto control (refusing if anything but this lease moved control), and `add` starts new path-disjoint siblings from the current control tip while others still run. |
 | `check task-graph <slug>` | Validate `tasks.md` slice dependency graph for cycles, unknown deps, malformed tokens, duplicate IDs, missing `Dependencies`, and `depends_on` mismatch. Prints a non-blocking `ADVISORY size:` line (and records a `size-advisory` metric) for each slice with 12+ Writer allowlist files and no `Size rationale:`. A `Dependencies` ID may carry a `(via <interface>)` suffix (empty or unclosed is a malformed token); prints a non-blocking `ADVISORY edge:` line (and records an `edge-advisory` metric) for each edge with no via, or whose via text is not a case-insensitive substring of the dependency's `Consumes / Produces:`.

Advisories print only when the graph is valid. |
 | `check regression <slug> [--update]` | Compare the workspace's structural progress facts (phase ordinal, checked ACs, met/abandoned gates, done slices, resolved questions, present artifacts) against the recorded `regression-baseline.json` high-water mark; `--update` ratchets the baseline forward under the feature lock and prints each blessed regression. |

Diff modes mark units overlapping changed hunks with `*`; stable content-derived cluster hashes let `.devrites/dup-ignore` dismissals survive line moves but resurface on structural edits. Staged mode reads index blobs and excludes untracked files. Bounded heuristic: successful scans/leads exit `0`; usage, unavailable input, and partial scans exit `2`. |
