Development record
2026-10-18 — The pre-run blocker sweep asks four fixed kinds and reports the run likely autonomous only when none is open (facilitator-on-delegation, itd-2610170638184486 planning prep): before or as an autonomous run starts, the orchestrating session asks each session by message, as the product thinker chose, for (1) a design decision not yet made, (2) a step only a person's hands can do, (3) work it depends on from another session, and (4) a credential missing or expiring within the window; each session writes its answers into its checklist, the orchestrator puts them to the person together, and says the run is likely to stay autonomous only once every session reports none open. The kinds are the four the draft's press release names; the message route stays within the coordination prep's bound that a question put to a person may travel by message (grounds: itd-2610170638184486 press release and scope split; the coordination prep's stance-bound decision; iss-2610170619247185, every blocker known at 20:48)
