(Fixed 2026-09-14: the old "exit on NO_DISPATCH" skipped verification permanently.)
+
+4.4. **Unknown-recovery (docs/publish-unknown-recovery.md):** tasks parked with "Publish outcome unknown" are the receipt-less trigger gap (2026-09-18, blocker 15). The note is the state machine; deterministic code owns every transition; you are the ferry (scan → classifier → record / retry protocol). Run this BEFORE Step 4.5 so a re-triggered build's mirrored verification-requested is visible to the verification scan on a later tick. Log every list the scan returns.
+   - Scan (code): `node {crewHome}/lib/crew-api.js --crew-home {crewHome} scan-publish-unknown`
+     Returns `{ waiting: [...], due: [...], retry_due: [...], mirrored: [...], skipped: [...] }`. `waiting` = parked < 30m — leave alone, no claim. `mirrored`/`skipped` = already handled by code — log only, take no action.
+   - For each entry in `due`: classify (code), then record the decision (code). Use the entry's fields verbatim.
+     - `node {crewHome}/lib/classify-publish-absence.js --repo-path "<repo_path>" --commit <commit> --base <base> --slug "<slug>" --trigger-ts "<trigger_ts>" --park-ts "<park_ts>" --task-id <task_id> --manifest-before '<manifest_before JSON>'`
+       Serialize the entry's `manifest_before` field to compact JSON for the `--manifest-before` value; when the entry's `manifest_before` is null, omit the flag (the classifier falls back to the time-based advance check and the Step 4.5 verifier fails closed without a baseline).
+       Exit 0 prints the decision JSON (`{ ok:true, decision, reasons, details }`) — or `{ ok:false, ... }` for a semantic non-verdict. Exit non-zero (usage/git/IO failure) → log the stderr line and LEAVE THE TASK: do NOT record anything; the claim expires and the next tick re-claims. A classifier crash is never a verdict.
+     - `node {crewHome}/lib/crew-api.js --crew-home {crewHome} record-unknown-classification --json '{"task_id": "<task_id>", "claim_expiry": "<claim_expiry>", "decision": <classifier stdout JSON>}'`
+       Paste the classifier's stdout verbatim as the decision value. If it returns `recorded: false` → log the reason and continue (another tick owns the task). The routes are the code's — log the returned decision and `routed` value:
+       verified → `publish: verification-requested` (no re-trigger); provably-dropped → `publish: dropped` (queues the retry protocol); applied-not-built / ambiguous → `publish: ambiguous` (terminal); superseded → `publish: superseded` (terminal); deferred → nothing (the claim expires; the next scan re-claims).
+     - Never invent a decision. Never re-trigger the edit for a `due` entry — classification only.
+   - For each entry in `retry_due` (a provably-dropped edit with a free retry budget — exactly one retry per task, enforced from note history; the scan only emits `retry_due` when no `publish: retry-issued` exists in the task's history): run the deterministic retry protocol via `lib/retry-publish.js`. The command owns all lock handling, journaling, diff generation, ledger writes, and cleanup with try/finally lock release — you only mediate the unavoidable `artifact_edit` tool call.
+     
+     Phase 1 — prepare (deterministic):
+     `node {crewHome}/lib/retry-publish.js --crew-home {crewHome} --task-id <task_id> --phase prepare`
+     - Exit 0 with `{"ok": true, "outcome": "ready", ...}`: the merge lock is HELD. The output carries `diff_path`, `diff_sha256`, and `slug`. Proceed to the trigger below.
+     - Exit 0 with `{"ok": true, "outcome": "superseded"|"lock-held"|"not-dropped", ...}`: terminal for this tick. Do NOT proceed to the trigger. If `outcome` is `not-dropped`, the output carries the full `classification` — pass it to `record-retry-recheck`: `node {crewHome}/lib/crew-api.js --crew-home {crewHome} record-retry-recheck --json '{"task_id": "<task_id>", "decision": <classification JSON>}'` and STOP for this task.
+     - Exit non-zero: the command failed (lock released via try/finally). Log the stderr line and STOP — do NOT trigger.

+     Trigger (agent-mediated — the ONLY prose-owned step):
+     Spawn ONE child (subagent) whose first instruction loads the artifact namespace (`tool_search.load_tool_namespace` with paths `["artifact"]`), with this exact brief — the same shape as the workflow's first attempt:
+        "The change to apply is the unified diff in the file \"<diff_path>\" (sha256 <diff_sha256>).
+        1. Verify the file: run sha256sum on it. If the printed hash is not exactly <diff_sha256>, STOP and end your turn — do not call artifact_edit.
+        2. Read the file's full content.
+        3. Call artifact_edit with slug \"<slug>\" and verbatim_request:
+        'Apply the following change to your source tree, then rebuild and deploy.

+        <the full content of the verified file, pasted verbatim>

+        - For a new file (--- /dev/null), create it with the added (+) lines as its full content.
+        - For a deleted file (+++ /dev/null), delete it.
+        - If any hunk does not apply cleanly, STOP and report the failure — do not improvise or skip hunks.
+        - Do not make any other source changes.
+        - After applying, rebuild and deploy.'
+        Edit-request contract (read carefully):
+        - Call artifact_edit exactly once with the slug and verbatim_request above. Never retry the edit yourself: if the edit is not accepted, do NOT call artifact_edit again — end your turn.
+        - If artifact_edit explicitly refuses the edit (the call is rejected — e.g. the artifact does not exist), do NOT call artifact_edit again: end your turn with exactly one line and nothing else: ARTIFACT_EDIT_REFUSED: <the refusal text, one line>.
+        - If artifact_edit is not available after the load, do NOT improvise — end your turn.
+        - You do NOT call setprovenance, artifact_inspect, or post-deploy yourself.
+        No report is needed: do not return JSON, do not summarize what you did, do not echo the diff. End your turn after the artifact_edit call."
+        Wait for the child to finish. The child's final text is your only signal.
+     
+     Phase 2 — complete (deterministic):
+     `node {crewHome}/lib/retry-publish.js --crew-home {crewHome} --task-id <task_id> --phase complete --edit-outcome <accepted|refused> [--refusal-text "<first line>"]`
+     - If the child's final text starts with `ARTIFACT_EDIT_REFUSED`: `--edit-outcome refused --refusal-text "<first line of the refusal>"`.
+     - Otherwise: `--edit-outcome accepted`.
+     - The command writes the outcome notes, appends the `-retry1` ledger entry (with the pre-retry `manifest_before` baseline), mirrors verification-requested, and RELEASES the lock in a finally block. Exit 0 means the protocol completed.
+     
+   - Crash rules (fail closed, never re-trigger blind): if this tick dies anywhere in the retry protocol, the note journal is the recovery state. `publish: retry-intended` without `retry-issued` → the next scan mirrors `verification-requested` (never re-triggers). `publish: retry-issued` without a mirrored request → the next scan mirrors it. A leaked merge lock expires after 600s. The next tick's scan never emits `retry_due` for a task with `retry-issued` in history — exactly one retry, enforced from notes, not from the ledger.

 5. **Monitor launched workflows until terminal (stay-alive — 2026-09-13):** The platform ties async workflow `agent()` authorization to the launcher's lifetime: if THIS tick ends while a workflow is still running, the workflow's next `agent()` call fails with "subagent bootstrap is no longer authorized" / "subagent reservation owner is terminal". Prevention beats recovery here, so this tick is configured with a 90-minute execution timeout (`timeout_secs: 5400` in seed/crons.json) and you MUST stay alive until every launched run reaches a terminal state. Do not exit early while a launched run is still `running` — your death is what kills it.
