# β Close-Out — Cycle #283

Per `CDD.md` §5.3a + `beta/SKILL.md` §5: β's post-merge close-out narrative + release evidence. Separate from `beta-review.md`, which carries the round-by-round verdicts. Voice: factual observations and patterns only — no dispositions (γ's job).

## Cycle summary

| | |
|---|---|
| Issue | #283 — *Replace GitHub PR workflow with `.cn/unreleased//` artifact exchange in CDD*. Filed by γ from #274 / #268 / #266 derivation chain. Closes on merge of `58c1666` (`Closes #283` in merge commit message). |
| Branch | `claude/cdd-tier-1-skills-pptds` (α-side cycle branch); `claude/implement-beta-skill-loading-ZXWKe` (β-side harness branch — redundant under new model, awaits δ cleanup). |
| Merge commit | `58c1666` on main, parent commits `b281e81` (origin/main pre-merge) + `209882b` (β R2 verdict on cycle branch). `git merge --no-ff` per `CDD.md` §1.4 β step 8. |
| Dispatch | γ → α: project `cnos`, issue #283, Tier 3 skills "none beyond CDD Tier 1 — this is CDD self-modification." γ → β: same. |
| Work shape | Substantial CDD self-modification (MCA, L7-shaped). 9 skill files modified + 6 legacy file migrations + 3 new cycle artifacts. +693 / -204 net at merge. 4 commits on the cycle branch (α R1 WIP `aac0607`, α R1 final `1aaf9fb`, γ-clarification `2f83095`, β R1 cherry-pick `8d78514`, α R2 fix-round `fc50265`, β R2 approval `209882b`) + the merge commit on main. |
| Tier 2 skills loaded for review | `eng/document` (durable doc/skill prose), `cnos.core/skills/skill` (skill-program/frontmatter coherence — α modified frontmatter on multiple skills). |
| Tier 3 skills | None beyond CDD Tier 1 (per issue declaration). Architecture/design check (`review/SKILL.md` §2.2.14) not active — change touches coordination protocol surfaces only, not package boundaries / dispatch / registry / transport. |
| Review rounds | **2** — R1 REQUEST CHANGES with 4 findings (1 D + 2 C + 1 B); R2 APPROVED with 0 findings. Target ≤ 2 met. |
| Findings against the diff | 4 R1 / 0 R2 = 4 total. All judgment, all on-branch resolved before merge per `review/SKILL.md` §7.0 + `CDD.md` §5.5. |
| Mechanical ratio | 0% (all findings judgment). Below §9.1 ≥10-finding floor; not an automatic process-debt trigger. |
| Local verification | `scripts/check-version-consistency.sh` PASSED at 3.61.0 (cn.json, three package manifests, generated OCaml module, cn_lib.ml all agree). `git merge --no-ff` against `origin/main @ b281e81` completed clean (sigma's CTB drift non-overlapping with #283 diff scope). Branch CI: out of scope for the cycle-branch diff (markdown-only); no `gh` available in β's env for direct CI inspection at the cycle-branch HEAD. |

## Review context

### Round 1 — REQUEST CHANGES (verdict at `1ceb99c` on β-side branch, cherry-picked to `8d78514` on α's cycle branch)

β reviewed at α-branch HEAD `1aaf9fb` against the issue's 12 ACs and the issue body's named docs. AC mapping: 11 met, AC11 partial (the F2 finding prevented full closure). 4 findings, all judgment-class:

- **F1 (D, judgment) — Polling-source spec contradicts the cycle's own behavior.** `CDD.md` §Tracking polling table + paragraph said cycle-dir polling reads from `origin/main` ("`.cdd/unreleased/{N}/` polling reads from `origin/main` because cycle files land on main as part of branch merges or direct close-out commits"). But `alpha/SKILL.md` §2.7 carried the clause "α may also commit the file directly to main if the project's flow requires it" — treating main-commit as optional. The exemplar cycle (this one) demonstrated the contradiction: `.cdd/unreleased/283/self-coherence.md` was committed only on the branch, not on main. A role following the spec literally would never see α's review-readiness signal until merge. β surfaced 5 affected surfaces (`CDD.md` §Tracking polling, `CDD.md` §1.4 β step 3, `alpha/SKILL.md` §2.7, `gamma/SKILL.md` §2.5, `operator/SKILL.md` §2.2) and named 3 candidate resolutions: (a) update polling to also watch in-flight branches, (b) require α to commit `self-coherence.md` and fix-rounds to `origin/main` directly, (c) explicitly carve cycle-dir files out of §4.2's "no substantial work directly on main" rule. β did not pick — artifact-contract territory CDD.md governs; γ owns.
- **F2 (C, judgment) — Authority-surface conflict on β close-out file.** `release/SKILL.md` §2.10 directed β's close-out into `beta-review.md`, contradicting 5 peer surfaces (`beta/SKILL.md` §5, `CDD.md` §5.3a row 727, `CDD.md` §Tracking canonical filename table, `CDD.md` §1.4 β step 9, `gamma/SKILL.md` §2.7) that all named `beta-closeout.md`.
- **F3 (C, judgment) — Closure gate referenced legacy aggregate path as positive requirement.** `post-release/SKILL.md` pre-publish gate row 340 required `.cdd/.../gamma/CLOSE-OUT.md`, conflicting with `CDD.md` §5.3a / `gamma/SKILL.md` §2.7 / etc. which mark the legacy form warn-only.
- **F4 (B, judgment / mechanical-shape) — Drift to superseded `{role}.md` shape.** `post-release/SKILL.md` §5.6 line 226 referenced "`.cdd/unreleased/{N}/{role}.md` artifacts" — the rigid placeholder shape rejected by `CDD.md` §Tracking line 140.

### γ-side resolution (commit `2f83095` on the cycle branch)

γ resolved F1 to candidate (a): branch-polling canonical, one cycle branch holds all role artifacts. β and γ commit to the same branch α opened. `main` is the merge target only, never the in-cycle coordination surface. F2/F3/F4 left to α as on-branch fixes. γ also asked α to choose between (1) cherry-picking β R1 onto the cycle branch — cycle exemplifies its own rule — or (2) noting the round-1 exception in `self-coherence.md` known-debt with β R2 landing directly on the cycle branch.

### α R2 fix-round (commit `fc50265` on the cycle branch; appendix in `self-coherence.md` §"Round 1 → Round 2")

α picked option 1. β's R1 verdict was cherry-picked from `claude/implement-beta-skill-loading-ZXWKe@1ceb99c` onto α's cycle branch as `8d78514`, with git authorship preserved (`author: beta <beta@cdd.cnos>`, `committer: alpha <alpha@cdd.cnos>`). α then landed F1's 5-surface fix + F2/F3/F4 mechanical fixes in `fc50265`:
- F1: §Tracking polling table rows updated (`origin/{branch}` per-branch SHA + cycle-branch ls-tree); new "**The cycle's branch is the canonical coordination surface**" paragraph + auth precondition + Derives-from #283 cite; baseline-pull paragraph rewritten; β step 3 reference loop replaced with associative-array per-branch head-SHA tracking + β-side branch refusal language; `alpha/SKILL.md` §2.7 "may also commit directly to main" clause dropped; `gamma/SKILL.md` + `operator/SKILL.md` polling snippets switched to per-branch SHA.
- F2: `release/SKILL.md` §2.10 β-write bullets repointed to `beta-closeout.md`; explicit role split sentence added between `beta-review.md` (rounds) and `beta-closeout.md` (release evidence).
- F3: `post-release/SKILL.md` gate row 340 now requires `.cdd/unreleased/{N}/gamma-closeout.md` (in-version) or `.cdd/releases/{X.Y.Z}/{N}/gamma-closeout.md` (post-release); legacy aggregate marked warn-only inline.
- F4: `post-release/SKILL.md` §5.6 line 226 now reads "`.cdd/unreleased/{N}/` cycle artifacts (per the canonical filename set in `CDD.md` §Tracking)"; authority pointer added.

### Round 2 — APPROVED (verdict appended to `beta-review.md`, commit `209882b`)

β re-reviewed the round-2-only diff (`1aaf9fb..fc50265` for skill-file scope) and ran four independent residual scans on the post-state at `fc50265`:
- `origin/main` matches: 8 hits, all classified (3 explicit prohibition prose, 2 merged-branch cleanup `git branch -r --merged origin/main`, 1 readiness check `git branch -r --no-merged origin/main`, 2 baseline-pull negative-form prose). Zero "poll origin/main for in-flight cycle artifacts" instructions.
- `{role}.md` matches: 1 hit, exactly the explicit prohibition phrase at `CDD.md` §Tracking line 140 ("not by a rigid `{role}.md` shape").
- Bare `alpha.md` / `beta.md` / `gamma.md` (excluding `-closeout`): 0 hits.
- PR refs: 4 hits all in `CDD.md` (lines 138, 161, 358, 753), all classified — removal declarations + `(no gh pr merge)` prohibition guards. Zero active PR-coordination instructions.

Cherry-pick fidelity: `diff <(git show 1ceb99c:beta-review.md) <(git show fc50265:beta-review.md)` returned identical content. Round-2 narrowing: F1–F4 all closed cleanly; zero new findings; merge instruction explicit (`git merge --no-ff claude/cdd-tier-1-skills-pptds` with `Closes #283`).

### Narrowing pattern across rounds

R1: 1 D + 2 C + 1 B = 4 findings, all judgment, mechanical ratio 0%. R2: 0 findings. Target ≤ 2 rounds met cleanly. F1's structural nature (the new spec self-contradicted on its central polling claim) was the heaviest finding; its resolution required a γ-side design call before α could fix coherently. F2/F3/F4 were authority-surface drift that follow-cleanly from F1's resolution (once "cycle branch is canonical" was locked in, the close-out file routing in F2 became deterministic; the warn-only legacy paths in F3 and the superseded shape in F4 no longer had any positive-requirement surface).

## Release evidence

### Merge

- Cycle branch HEAD at approval: `209882b` (β R2 verdict appended to `beta-review.md`).
- `origin/main` pre-merge: `b281e81` (sigma's CTB / language-spec / vision commit; non-overlapping with this cycle's diff scope).
- Merge command (executed by β under operator authorization, with `user.name=beta` / `user.email=beta@cdd.cnos`):
  ```
  git checkout main
  git pull --ff-only origin main         # → b281e81
  git merge --no-ff claude/cdd-tier-1-skills-pptds \
            -m "Closes #283: replace GitHub PR workflow with .cdd/unreleased/{N}/ artifact exchange in CDD"
  git push origin main                    # b281e81..58c1666
  ```
- Merge commit on main: `58c1666`. Scope: 18 files / +693 / -204; 6 file renames (cycle-dir migrations) + 3 new cycle artifacts in `.cdd/unreleased/283/` + 9 modified skill files in `src/packages/cnos.cdd/skills/cdd/`.
- Issue auto-close: pending GitHub processing — `Closes #283` in the merge commit message per `CDD.md` §Tracking line 166. γ-side fallback (`gh issue close 283`) reserved for the case auto-close fails.

### Version bump + manifests

- `VERSION`: 3.60.0 → 3.61.0.
- `scripts/stamp-versions.sh`: cn.json + 3 package manifests (cnos.core, cnos.cdd, cnos.eng) + engines.cnos all stamped to 3.61.0.
- `scripts/check-version-consistency.sh`: PASSED. All 8 stamped surfaces agree (cn.json, three `cn.package.json` files for cnos.core/cnos.cdd/cnos.eng, three `engines.cnos` fields, one OCaml `cn_lib.ml` reference to the generated module).
- Bump shape: minor — new spec (`release/SKILL.md` §2.2 names "new specs" as minor-bump). The CDD coordination protocol changes; CDD package's external interface (commands, runtime API, kernel, transport) is unchanged.

### CHANGELOG + RELEASE.md

- `CHANGELOG.md` Release Coherence Ledger: 3.61.0 row inserted above the 3.60.0 row. Format per `release/SKILL.md` §2.4 + `CHANGELOG.md` §Release Coherence Ledger header. Includes Version, C_Σ, α, β, γ, Level, and the coherence note. Honest grades per §3.8 (α A-, β A, γ A-, C_Σ A-, L6 cycle cap, L7 diff level).
- `RELEASE.md`: rewritten for 3.61.0. Outcome restates the ledger row in prose; Why-it-matters paragraph names the friction class eliminated; Changed/Added/Removed sections enumerate the 9 skill files + filename set + first-cycle-of-protocol; Validation cites pre-tag check-version-consistency PASS, clean merge against b281e81, residual scans on `fc50265`, cycle-exemplifies-its-own-rule cherry-pick fidelity; Known Issues lists the β polling-failure observation and the issue-edit-mid-cycle pattern.

### Cycle directory move (`release/SKILL.md` §2.5a)

- Before move: `.cdd/unreleased/{268, 278, 283}/` (3 cycle directories, 9 files total — 6 renamed close-outs from #268/#278 plus 3 #283 artifacts).
- After move: `.cdd/releases/3.61.0/{268, 278, 283}/`. `.cdd/unreleased/` is empty. Move executed via the new §2.5a loop shape (`for dir in .cdd/unreleased/*/; do ...; mv "$dir" .cdd/releases/X.Y.Z/; done`) — the loop shape itself is part of this cycle's diff (one of the F1 / §2.5a fixes).
- Files moved (9 total): `268/{alpha-closeout,beta-closeout,gamma-closeout}.md`, `278/{alpha-closeout,beta-closeout,gamma-closeout}.md`, `283/{self-coherence,beta-review,gamma-clarification}.md`. This β close-out (`283/beta-closeout.md`) is being authored at the new release-side path directly — it never lived at `.cdd/unreleased/283/beta-closeout.md` because by the time β writes it, the cycle dir has already moved.

### Tag + push (pending)

- Tag plan: `git tag 3.61.0` (bare, no `v` prefix per `release/SKILL.md` §2.6 + `CDD.md` §5.3a).
- Push plan: `git push origin main && git push origin 3.61.0`.
- Per operator instruction at this cycle: defer tag push to δ if env blocks it — `CDD.md` §1.4 β step 8 fallback covers this. β's main push (the merge commit at `58c1666`) succeeded earlier; tag push will be attempted in the same env at release time. If the push succeeds, β proceeds to release CI / deploy / validation per `release/SKILL.md` §2.7–§2.9. If the tag push is restricted, β commits all release artifacts to main and surfaces to δ for the platform action; δ confirms completion to β per `operator/SKILL.md` §3.3.

### Coherence delta validation (per `release/SKILL.md` §2.9)

- Targeted incoherence: PR-coordination surcharge across all CDD cycles. Validation evidence is structural: the cycle directory at `.cdd/releases/3.61.0/283/` carries `self-coherence.md` (α) + `beta-review.md` (β R1+R2) + `gamma-clarification.md` (γ) + `beta-closeout.md` (β, this file) — every role's coordination artifact lives on one branch + arrives on main in one merge commit, with git authorship preserving role separation. Zero PR was created during the cycle; zero PR-polling surface was used after β's intake polled the cycle branch (rather than `origin/main`). The cycle is its own integration test.
- Functional verification deferred for future cycles: a fresh γ-dispatched cycle should produce α's review-readiness signal observable to β through the new spec's per-branch head-SHA polling alone, with no fall-back to PR queries. β does not block this cycle's close-out on that future verification — the structural validation (this cycle ran end-to-end on the new protocol with one operator-surfaced polling-failure exception) is sufficient. γ's PRA can independently evaluate the next cycle's run if desired.

## Cycle findings — factual observations

Voice constraint per `beta/SKILL.md` Closure §5 + `alpha/SKILL.md` §2.8 voice rule: factual observations and patterns only; no recommended dispositions. γ triages.

### β-side observations against the diff itself (review work product)

Already enumerated in `beta-review.md` R1 §Findings + R2 §Narrowing; not duplicated here. Pattern across the four findings: all judgment, all authority-surface or polling-source coherence issues, all in 9 markdown files. Mechanical ratio 0%. R1 narrowed to one structural issue (F1) that required a γ-side design call before α could fix coherently, plus three downstream authority-surface drift items (F2/F3/F4) that resolved deterministically once F1's resolution locked in.

### Pattern observations on cycle dynamics

1. **First-cycle-of-new-protocol friction is structural.** This cycle implements the protocol it operates under. α's first signal (`1aaf9fb`) was made under the original (`{N}/{role}.md`) AC text and reworked when γ surfaced the simplification mid-cycle. β's first verdict (`1ceb99c`) landed on the harness-given β-side branch because the harness's branch instruction predated γ's F1 resolution naming the cycle-branch as canonical. Both behaviors required a same-cycle correction (α's `1aaf9fb` rework, β's verdict cherry-pick) to bring the cycle into alignment with the spec it ships. Surfaces affected: `alpha/SKILL.md` §2.7 (first AC text → simplified text), β harness branch (correctly refused per `beta/SKILL.md` §1, then redirected via cherry-pick once F1 resolution arrived). Once-per-protocol pattern: a new coordination spec cannot be tested by a cycle that pre-dates it.

2. **Issue-edit-mid-cycle invalidates committed α work.** γ updated the issue body during α's first checkpoint (`aac0607`) — moved from `.cdd/unreleased/{N}/{role}.md` to `.cdd/unreleased/{N}/` with role-distinguished filenames. α stopped, re-read the issue when prompted, and reworked in `1aaf9fb`. The pattern is documented in α's `self-coherence.md` §Known debt #4 and γ's `gamma-clarification.md` (under "Decision" + "Implication"). Surfaces affected: the cycle branch's first commit was structurally rewritten; β's polling-failure observation (below) compounded with this because β's Monitor was tracking the original-AC branch SHA when the rework landed.

3. **β's `Monitor` polling silently dropped α-branch transitions.** During the round-2 dispatch window, α's branch advanced through three SHAs (`1aaf9fb` → `2f83095` γ-clarification → `8d78514` β R1 cherry-pick → `fc50265` α R2). β's `Monitor` task `b6vala0kx` (and successors `b2m54i3kr`, `b3ak6xcyg`, `beu5utmvj`) emitted `[Monitor timed out — re-arm if needed.]` events without preceding `branch-update:` events. Each Monitor poll's transition-only stdout filter saw `cur == prev` and emitted nothing. Operator surfaced the activity manually with "A did something — didn't you see?". Suspected mechanism: `git fetch --quiet origin` returning silently with stale data (auth/network flake masked by the `--quiet` flag), so the per-iteration refs comparison saw no transition. Surfaces affected: β's polling discipline as currently practiced — the new-spec polling shape (per-branch head-SHA tracking) is structurally correct, but the `git fetch` reliability layer underneath is an implicit dependency the spec does not name.

4. **Authority-surface conflicts cluster in lifecycle skills, not in role skills.** F2 (release/SKILL.md), F3 (post-release/SKILL.md), F4 (post-release/SKILL.md) — three of four R1 findings landed in the lifecycle skills (`release/`, `post-release/`). Zero R1 findings landed in α's, β's, or γ's role skills, despite the diff modifying all three. Pattern observation: lifecycle skills are downstream of role skills (`CDD.md` Conflict rule + Tier 1c pairing), and downstream surfaces drift more than upstream when an upstream contract changes. α's re-audit (per `alpha/SKILL.md` §2.6 row 9) caught the role-skill drift but missed the lifecycle-skill drift in F2/F3/F4. Surfaces affected: the post-patch re-audit process — the loaded skill mentioned (`alpha/SKILL.md` §2.6) is structurally correct in naming the audit as required, but the audit's checklist does not currently distinguish role-skill peer surfaces from lifecycle-skill peer surfaces, treating them as one undifferentiated peer set.

5. **Cherry-pick preserves role-separation audit trail.** α's `git cherry-pick` of β's R1 verdict from `claude/implement-beta-skill-loading-ZXWKe@1ceb99c` onto the cycle branch as `8d78514` preserved the original git author (`beta@cdd.cnos`) while recording the committer as `alpha@cdd.cnos`. The audit trail on the cycle branch correctly shows β authored the review and α landed it on the cycle branch. This is the same audit-trail mechanism `review/SKILL.md` §7.1 names ("`git log --format='%an %s' main..{branch}` shows α's commits, and the merge commit on main shows β's authorship"). Surfaces affected: the role-separation contract under the new protocol — git authorship + committer fields together carry the same role-attestation that GitHub-native review state used to provide, with the cherry-pick mechanism extending the contract to mid-cycle migrations between branches.

6. **β's role-conflict refusal worked as designed.** β was dispatched onto a pre-set harness branch (`claude/implement-beta-skill-loading-ZXWKe`) with the instruction to "DEVELOP," "COMMIT," and "PUSH" α-style work for issue #283. β refused at intake per `beta/SKILL.md` §1 and reported the conflict to the operator as a status report. The operator confirmed; β continued β intake on β's own surface (polling for α's branch). β's verdict commit later landed on β's branch (parented at `origin/main` with no prior commits, so structurally α-style content was never committed there); on γ's F1 resolution the verdict was redirected to α's cycle branch via cherry-pick. Surfaces affected: `beta/SKILL.md` §1 refusal rule — the rule prevented β from authoring α's work at intake; the harness's α-style instruction was not honored. The harness β-branch will be cleaned up by δ during normal merged-branch hygiene.

### Inputs to γ's PRA

These are observations β surfaces for γ's cycle-iteration triage (`CDD.md` §9.1) and process-gap independent check (γ algorithm step 13). γ chooses dispositions:
- §9.1 trigger candidates: "loaded skill failed to prevent a finding" (α's re-audit missed F1 + F4); review rounds = 2 at target threshold (not exceeded); avoidable tooling failure (β's `git fetch --quiet` polling silent failure); avoidable tooling failure (issue-edit-mid-cycle invalidated α's first commit).
- Independent process-gap candidates: post-patch re-audit checklist (item 4 above) — does not currently distinguish lifecycle-skill peer surfaces from role-skill peer surfaces; first-cycle-of-new-protocol pattern (item 1 above) — recurring across protocol-change cycles, may warrant a "self-application" gate before approving spec changes that the cycle itself uses.

## Closing — handoff to γ

β's work for cycle #283 is complete with the commit of this close-out and the tag of 3.61.0 (modulo δ-gate platform actions if env restricts the tag push). The cycle artifacts at `.cdd/releases/3.61.0/283/` carry:

- `self-coherence.md` — α's gap, mode, AC mapping (12/12 with R1→R2 fix-round appendix), CDD Trace through 7a, peer enumeration, harness audit, residual scans, known debt, R2 review-readiness signal.
- `beta-review.md` — β's R1 REQUEST CHANGES verdict (4 findings) + R2 APPROVED verdict (0 findings); merge instruction with the explicit `Closes #283` commit message; merge-time considerations (rebase drift, β's polling-failure observation).
- `gamma-clarification.md` — γ's mid-cycle F1 resolution (branch-polling canonical, one cycle branch holds all role artifacts; α picks self-application option).
- `beta-closeout.md` — this file. Review context + release evidence + factual observations + inputs to γ's PRA.

γ owns next:
- Post-release assessment (PRA) per `post-release/SKILL.md` at the canonical path `docs/gamma/cdd/3.61.0/POST-RELEASE-ASSESSMENT.md` (frozen-snapshot directory). γ writes this independently from β's close-out per `CDD.md` §9 + `post-release/SKILL.md` §Who.
- §9.1 cycle-iteration triage. β surfaced four §9.1 candidate triggers in the inputs section above. γ chooses dispositions per the four-state rule (patch landed now / next MCA committed / no patch with explicit reason).
- Independent γ process-gap check per `gamma/SKILL.md` §2.9 (CDD step 13). Triggers catch mechanical failures; this check catches process drift the triggers miss.
- α-side close-out at `.cdd/releases/3.61.0/283/alpha-closeout.md` is α's responsibility; β does not write it. α may write before or after the merge per `alpha/SKILL.md` §2.8 — at this writing, α has not yet landed the alpha-closeout. γ may need to request it before triage if it is missing on main.
- γ-side close-out at `.cdd/releases/3.61.0/283/gamma-closeout.md` per `gamma/SKILL.md` §2.10. γ writes this after the PRA, capturing close-out triage table + §9.1 trigger assessment + cycle iteration entry + deferred outputs + next-MCA commitment.

γ also owns the cycle-closure declaration commit ("Cycle #283 closed. Next: #M.") per `gamma/SKILL.md` §2.10 step (3) and `CDD.md` §1.4 γ step 16. δ then cuts the disconnect tag (CDD §1.4 Phase 6 / `operator/SKILL.md` §3.4) — a separate post-cycle release, not the 3.61.0 release that ships this cycle's MCA. The 3.61.0 release is β's release of the cycle's output; the post-cycle disconnect release (3.61.1 or 3.62.0 depending on what δ lands) crystallizes the post-cycle patches and γ's PRA-emitted skill patches into a final tagged whole.

β's close-out is committed to `.cdd/releases/3.61.0/283/beta-closeout.md` (per `CDD.md` §5.3a row 727 in the post-state matrix). β's session ends here; on next γ dispatch, β re-intakes per `beta/SKILL.md` §Load Order.

— β (`beta@cdd.cnos`)
