+### Second opinion (post-`APPROVED`)
+
+On a non-trivial diff — or any change touching a critical area — a review from a **different provider** is one command away *when this repo also renders the `codex` engine*. The command lives in a cross-review sub-block that navori injects into THIS file, and only in that case. Scroll to the end: no such sub-block below means this repo renders Claude only and the option does not apply here. (Never re-derive this from a `grep` for the sub-block's id — you are reading the file that would match.)
+
+### Reclaim the worktree (ask, never assume)
+
+The pilot ends its report with a `worktree:` line, because it runs inside the worktree and cannot remove it — you can. Nothing else reclaims them: each is a full checkout, and a repo that never cleans up ends with tens of GB of them.
+
+- `safe to remove` → ask the user once, plainly ("the PR is open and the branch is pushed — remove the worktree at `<path>`?"), and act on the answer. Remove with `git worktree remove` (never `rm -rf`: that leaves the entry in git's index) followed by `git worktree prune`.
+- `NOT safe` → do NOT ask. Report which of the two reasons it gave and leave it alone; a worktree holding uncommitted or unpushed work is the only copy of it.
+
+And never take a merged PR as proof on its own: **squash merge leaves no ancestry**, so `git merge-base --is-ancestor` answers "not merged" for branches that shipped days ago. What proves the work landed is the squash commit in the base branch: `git log <base> --grep="(#<PR>)"`.

Reuse the same key to evolve an observation via upsert, not to create repeated snapshots. **Always pass a `title`.** The API accepts an empty one without complaint, and search results lead with it — so an untitled memory is one every future reader must open in full just to learn what it is about. Write it as the claim itself, not as a label for the claim.
 - **Write-back:** if the code contradicts a memory, fix it with `mem_update`/`mem_save` right away. Treat `needs_review` as stale context.
 - `mem_session_summary` is mandatory before "done" for the agent that owns the session (see who this block is addressed to): Goal · Discoveries · Accomplished · Next Steps · Relevant Files. It is the **same redaction** as the closeout's `history.md` entry — write it once and reuse that text for both destinations (one travels in git, the other crosses repos); never write the same session up twice.
 - **Curation at close:** in the SAME turn as the summary, never a separate pass, review what the session created. Consolidate duplicates under their `topic_key`, promote what's durable, and delete only volatile observations or ones already covered by the summary. Never aggressive deletion, never delete a durable decision.

 Before decomposing work: **search for context** with `mem_search` using keywords from the ticket. If you find a previous audit of the same area or a related architectural decision, read it before dispatching the `implementer`. Don't re-discover what's already saved.
 
-After each architectural decision, new plugin or convention established in the session: a proactive `mem_save` with the appropriate type (`decision`, `convention`, `pattern`, `bugfix`) and a stable `topic_key`. Reuse the key to evolve the topic without piling up snapshots. Save durable pointers; lines, signatures and call sites are verified in code and not persisted.
