The operator's answer (2026-11-10, yes) to the design question of issue 1966 note 195: two take-in-waits conditions stood with nothing waiting, because a wait the watchman learnt of (its seed from indexer_pending, or the own-build-unknown pending) could end without a take-in.taken, and nothing reconciled its kept findings with the indexer's pending state.

Design 47, Taken in by the indexer it names, bullet 'A wait is bounded, said and recoverable': the watchman's seed ends every take-in wait and finding whose key indexer_pending no longer names; the indexer's taken event covers every key indexer_pending named a taken merge by. Built by mesh-delivery branch fix/1966-take-in-ends-every-wait (in review).

A design edit of a few lines (playbook 08 step 4): the operator's Approve is its review. go test ./... at hq's root passes.

The operator's answer to the design question of issue 1966 note 195: a take-in
wait whose taken event was never heard stood for ever; the indexer's pending
state is what waits. Also says the indexer's taken event covers every key its
pending tool named.
