# T-1423: fw inception sweep — retroactively tick Human AC + finalize stuck inceptions (T-1322 backlog)

## Context

T-1324 (2026-04-19) made `fw inception decide` tick the RUBBER-STAMP/REVIEW Human AC via `tick_inception_decide_acs`. But 51 tasks with recorded decisions remain stuck in `.tasks/active/` because:
1. Decisions recorded BEFORE 2026-04-19 never ran the new function
2. Hand-edits (bulk-triage commits like `fcec1833`) bypass `do_inception_decide` entirely

`update-task.sh` work-completed finalization is gated on `OLD_STATUS != "work-completed"`, so re-running on already-completed tasks is a no-op. A sweep command is the bounded way to clear the backlog and prevent re-accumulation from hand-edits.

## Acceptance Criteria

### Agent
- [x] `fw inception sweep` subcommand exists and is routed via `do_inception`
- [x] `--dry-run` lists eligible tasks without modification
- [x] Sweep only touches tasks with `status: work-completed` AND a recorded `## Decision` (GO/NO-GO/DEFER)
- [x] Ticks Human AC via `tick_inception_decide_acs`
- [x] If all Human ACs now checked: moves task file to `.tasks/completed/`
- [x] Applied to current backlog: 49 of 51 stuck tasks moved (target ≥ 40 closed)

## Verification

grep -q "do_inception_sweep" lib/inception.sh
grep -q "sweep)" lib/inception.sh
bin/fw inception sweep --dry-run 2>&1 | grep -qE "eligible|scanned"

## Decisions

<!-- Record decisions ONLY when choosing between alternatives.
     Skip for tasks with no meaningful choices.
