+### What's new in 2.10
+
+- **`--auto-wait <minutes>` rides out a rate-limit window** — opt in and a run whose limit window is hours out sleeps until it reopens and continues, instead of halting for a manual restart (#804). **Off by default**; the value is a *total* budget per issue, capped at 2 waits. Never waits on out-of-credits failures (credits are purchased, not waited out). The wait is in-process — for waits that must survive closing the terminal or a reboot, see halt-and-resume below; an exhausted `--auto-wait` budget still writes the halt record so `sequant resume` can pick up where it gave up. See [run-command.md](docs/reference/run-command.md#auto-wait-for-a-rate-limit-window).
+- **Durable halt-and-resume + `sequant resume`** — a run that fails on an exhausted rate-limit window now writes a durable halt record (with its `resumeAt` time) and exits cleanly, releasing the per-issue lock. `sequant resume` re-enters after the window reopens, skipping completed phases and issues — safe to invoke from cron/launchd for unattended machines (recipes in [halt-and-resume.md](docs/reference/halt-and-resume.md)) (#892).
+- **`--ready-gate` runs the post-QA ready gate inside `sequant run`** — opt in and, once an issue's standard phases succeed, `run` drives it through the same full-weight `qa → loop → qa` gate as `sequant ready` (to the configured `ready.policy`) **before** opening the PR, so the gate's fixes land in it. It automates the manual any-gaps/fix-gaps second look and **still stops at the human merge gate — it never merges** (#817). **Off by default**; without the flag the run path is unchanged (an `AC_MET_BUT_NOT_A_PLUS` verdict still breaks to PR per #749). Reuses `ready`'s policy, iteration cap, and stagnation guard — no new settings. See [run-command.md](docs/reference/run-command.md#ready-gate-post-qa-second-look).
+- **`sequant merge --watch` waits for CI, then reports** — instead of polling checks by hand, `merge --watch` waits for each PR's CI checks to finish, then runs the merge-check and reports the result. It never merges (#818).
+- **Stricter CLI contract for scripting** — malformed numeric flags (`--timeout 30m`, `--timeout abc`) are rejected with a clear error instead of silently coerced (#833, #845), and pre-flight rejections (uninitialized project, missing prerequisites) exit non-zero across `run`/`update`/`state`/`status`/`init` (#848). Runs terminated by a signal exit `128+signum` instead of `0` (#856).
+
 ### What's new in 2.9
 
 - **`--chain` survives a failed link** — re-running a partially-completed chain resumes from its last good link, skipping the completed prefix and rebasing onto that committed tip instead of redoing hours of finished work (#760). A warn-by-default content pre-flight also runs before the first worktree is provisioned, flagging missing ACs, mis-ordered dependencies, predicted file overlaps, and closed issues; `--strict-preflight` makes any warning a hard stop (#762).

 ### What's new in 2.8
 
 - **Clearer failures when an agent stops early** — phases that hit a turn cap now preserve their partial work and halt cleanly for resume instead of discarding it (#739, #733), and rate-limit/out-of-credits failures are named for what they are (with reset time and credit-purchase hints) rather than buried under generic retry noise (#732).
-- **Runtime Node-version guard** — `sequant` checks the running Node against its `engines.node` floor (`>=22.12.0`) at startup and exits with a friendly upgrade message instead of crashing later on a Node-22-only API (#734).

 - **`/assess` avoids npx version skew** — it now emits `sequant run …` when a global install is on `PATH` (and the unchanged `npx sequant run …` otherwise), so copy-pasted commands don't silently run a stale binary (#740).

 See the [`sequant ready` command reference](https://github.com/sequant-io/sequant/blob/main/docs/reference/ready-command.md) for the full pre-flight readiness check.
 
+## Riding out a rate-limit window
+
+By default, a rate limit whose window reopens hours from now halts the run, so a multi-hour job needs a manual restart. `--auto-wait <minutes>` opts into waiting instead:
+
+```bash
+sequant run 42 --auto-wait 360   # wait up to 6 hours total for the window to reopen
+```
+
+- **Off by default** (`0`) — the halt behavior is unchanged unless you ask for the wait.
+- The value is a **total** budget per issue, not per occurrence, capped at 2 waits.
+- **Never waits on out-of-credits failures** — credits are purchased, not waited out. (These do carry a reset timestamp, so the gate is the error type, not the timestamp.)
+- The wait is shown live and Ctrl-C ends it promptly.
+- **In-process only: it does not survive closing the terminal** — for waits that must survive a closed terminal or reboot, use halt-and-resume below.
+- Worktree and issue locks are held throughout — deliberate, since Claude rate limits are account-wide and no other run could progress during the window anyway.
+
+Also settable as `run.autoWaitMinutes` or `SEQUANT_AUTO_WAIT_MINUTES`. Full details in the [run command reference](https://github.com/sequant-io/sequant/blob/main/docs/reference/run-command.md#auto-wait-for-a-rate-limit-window).
+
+### Durable recovery: `sequant resume`
+
+Without `--auto-wait` (or once its budget is exhausted), a run that fails on a waitable rate-limit window writes a durable halt record with its reset time and exits cleanly, releasing the per-issue lock. `sequant resume` re-enters after the window reopens, skipping completed phases and issues — safe to invoke repeatedly, so a single cron/launchd entry handles unattended machines. Recipes and full mechanics in the [halt-and-resume reference](https://github.com/sequant-io/sequant/blob/main/docs/reference/halt-and-resume.md).
+
+## Wait for CI, then verify (`merge --watch`)
+
+`sequant merge <issue> --watch` kills the "merge after green" polling loop: it waits for the PR's CI checks to finish before running merge-check, so the verdict is real the moment the command exits.
+
+```bash
+sequant merge 818 --watch                 # poll CI to terminal, then run merge-check
+sequant merge 818 --watch --scan --post   # composes with depth flags and --post
+```
+
+- **It never merges** — `--watch` only decides _when_ the existing report runs; the human merge gate stays.
+- **Foreground only** — a plain poll loop, no daemon or OS notifications. Chain on the exit code to notify yourself.
+- **Configurable** `--interval <seconds>` (default 30) and `--timeout <seconds>` (default 1800); a timeout exits with a distinct code (3).
+- **Dispatch blocks short-circuit to BLOCKED** with the cause — merge conflicts (`CONFLICTING`), zero checks after a dispatch block, and a runner-never-started billing lockout — instead of polling until timeout.
+
+Full details in the [merge command reference](https://github.com/sequant-io/sequant/blob/main/docs/reference/merge-command.md).
+
+## Running the ready gate inside `run`
+
+`--ready-gate` opts a `sequant run` into the same post-QA gate as `sequant ready`, without the second manual command — it automates the habitual any-gaps → fix-gaps second look:
+
+```bash
+sequant run 42 --ready-gate   # phases, then the gate, then a PR — never merges
+```
+
+- **Off by default** — without the flag the run path is unchanged.
+- Once the standard phases pass, the gate runs a full-weight `qa → loop → qa` pass (to `ready.policy`) **before** the PR opens, so its fixes land in the PR.
+- **It never merges.** The run stops at the human merge gate with the issue `waiting_for_human_merge` (threshold reached) or `blocked` (a guard halted it).
+- Reuses `ready`'s policy, iteration cap, and stagnation guard — **no new settings**.
