+**Chips talk over native `SendMessage`, not greprag.** Claude Code addresses live sessions by name on this machine — `ListAgents` to discover, `SendMessage to: "<name>"` to send, delivered at the recipient's next tool boundary. The parent gets native start and completion notifications for every chip it spawns. So there is no IN-FLIGHT ping, no `greprag send` report-back, and **no watcher to arm**. greprag's role in the chip loop is now content only (the `fix list` pre-pull below, and `fix spawn` as mission generator).

The validator accepts `Chip: `, `Chip A: `, `Chip 1: ` (regex `^Chip( [A-Za-z0-9]+)?: `). The label is the shared handle the leader and chip both use end-to-end (title → report-back self-ID → merge references).

-## After spawning — arm YOUR OWN watcher (HARD RULE)
-
-The chip reports back to **your** session id via `greprag send`. Nothing else reliably arms you to receive it: the SessionStart arm-directive and the turn-2 UserPromptSubmit fallback are agent-choice and may not fire, and a report that lands in an unwatched inbox sits silently until someone runs `greprag inbox` by hand. So **immediately after `spawn_task` returns, arm your own watcher** — unless you already have one running this session (one watcher covers every chip you spawn; never double-arm):
+## After spawning — do nothing
 
-Use the **registered** form — copy the exact command the SessionStart / UserPromptSubmit arm hook prints **verbatim**. It already carries `--owner-pid <claude-pid>`, which only the hook can resolve (the hook is a live descendant of claude.exe; your shell is not):
-
-```
-Monitor (persistent:true): `greprag inbox watch --session <your-8hex> --json --owner-pid <pid>`
-```
-
-`<your-8hex>` = your own session id (from SessionStart). **Do NOT hand-fill `--owner-pid` from a shell PID** — the reaper reads `--owner-pid` as "the claude.exe that owns me," so a non-claude PID there reads as a dead owner and the watch is reaped. **Do NOT add `--monitor-pid` / `read … /proc/$$/winpid`** — that form was reverted 2026-06-11 (it stamped the transient arm-line bash, not the Monitor task, and false-killed live watchers); the flag is dead code now. **Do NOT use a bare `while true; greprag inbox watch …` loop** — it never registers in the desk-line, so the arm-probe reports you "NOT armed" and other sessions can't see you as live-reachable. Simplest and correct: **paste the arm hook's printed command verbatim** — its `--owner-pid` is the only one the reaper trusts. (A watch armed with no `--owner-pid` at all is fine too — it is kept, never false-killed — it just isn't owner-pid-reapable if hard-killed.) Arming is what makes the chip's "done" report surface live instead of being lost — the spawn is only half the loop.

-**Launch state:** the Block 1 `IN-FLIGHT` ping is your only signal the operator actually clicked the chip card. No ping = assume the card is still unpressed — don't wait on results from a chip that was never launched.
+No watcher. No arming. The harness tells you when the operator starts the chip and again when it ends, and the chip's own `SendMessage` lands at your next tool boundary.
