The implementer rightly refused to tune oop_steering to force a 70° RAAN convergence and surfaced the category question instead. I concur on the HALT, and I classify the forward path as reviewer-domain: the cheap, correct lever is a RAAN-aligned staging reframe inside #1358's scope — NOT a producer-capability change. I authorize SP2-continue on that reframe.

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 Path-A/B capture — reviewer CONCUR-ON-HALT + method ruling: the capture is structurally blocked (instrument fires only on a Hohmann return_burn, which arises only from the hard eccentric/large-phase-gap geometry the planner won't converge at reachable phase gaps; the convergent geometry yields a CW schedule with NO return_burn). REFRAME RATIFIED: SP-fix β re-solves the return Δv from the LIVE ignition state at runtime by construction — it does not need a pre-captured magnitude to be designed. Capture demotes from sizing-prerequisite (blocking) to verification-lens (post-fix). PROCEED → Option 1 (implement β; verify with the instrument on a convergent-Hohmann re-fly). σR3 663f377c / #13365234c92b / planner 1c2302d4 BYTE-STABLE; no code; clean tree at v0.65.27 d53032d1b; no self-close; streak HOLDS 62.

ErikEvenson/galaxy#1367 SP-instr capture re-fly — reviewer DIAGNOSE-CONCUR on HALT (instrument did not fire; planner non-convergence is the measurement-prerequisite blocker; NOT a regression; capture-method reframing → operator)
Classification: capture re-fly attempted, instrument did NOT fire — the rendezvous planner did not converge a schedule for the run-specific geometry (twice, including a clean uncontended retry), so no return_burn ignition occurred and no live ignition state was captured. This is a measurement-prerequisite blocker, not a captured-data result and not an SP-fix code-ship. Verdict: DIAGNOSE-CONCUR on the HALT. No code shipped; protected set byte-stable; non-convergence proven NOT a regression. The capture-method decision is operator/reviewer-domain. Ball → OPERATOR for the §4 capture-method fork.
Classification: instrument code-ship (env-guarded, default-off) + build-auth. Not a capture re-fly (no live data captured yet); not the SP-fix (β re-solve NOT implemented here, correctly deferred). Verdict: CONCUR — CODE-ship. Publishable. Build remains operator-gated.
Disposition: CONCUR on the implementer's mid-verify HALT-PUBLISH — no fix shipped, clean tree, byte-stable protected set. The implementer investigated the concurred minimal planner-side fix at planner.py:3916 (raise the return target periapsis by the Rung-1 circular r_t·sinΔθ depression, i.e. max(r_t, min_safe_a), reusing the shared safety_periapsis_floor) and found it provably under-corrects on the live 37° crash geometry — it would still deliver a sub-surface return periapsis. That is the correct call: shipping a static correction that analysis says delivers sub-surface would be fabricating a fix unverifiable as surface-safe (feedback_mechanism_trace_predictions_need_empirical_verification). I independently re-derived the under-correction and it holds.
Anti-whack-a-mole guardrail (γ directive a21c7500 §3): trigger-2 does NOT fire —
Disposition: CONCUR — code-ship (backstop) + diagnose-ship (executor root). PROCEED to the operator-gated build gate. This is a mid-verify ship for concur, not a close: no four-issue round-trip GREEN, no self-close. Both halves of the operator-ratified γ directive (a21c7500 §3) land correctly:
Plane-change-aware phasing-orbit floor at galaxy-trajectory-planner. Verified against origin/main; all reviewer-mandated §3 gates pass; ErikEvenson/galaxy#1336 dock + σR3 kernel + shared safety_floors.py byte-stable; non-vacuous delivered-periapsis test independently confirmed load-bearing. CONCUR — code is publishable. PROCEED to the operator-gated galaxy-trajectory-planner build; HALT there.
§1 — TL;DR
The implementer shipped the SP2-ratified Rung-1 option-(1) fix: in _compute_initial_guess, raise the phasing-orbit floor by the plane-change depression so candidate selection + the final clamp account for the delivered (post-plane_change) periapsis rather than the plan-time in-plane periapsis. min_safe_a = safety_periapsis_floor(...) + r_t·sin Δθ, with Δθ derived from the chaser/target specific-angular-momentum vectors in the request's cartesian state. Reuses the single shared floor (no new gating constan
Disposition: CONCUR on the completion-gate reframe code-ship + AUTHORIZE the operator-gated deploy build. The implementer executed the operator-ratified mission-adequacy reframe (9377932e) exactly as directed — a per-maneuver, ascent-specific completion-alt-tolerance widening, controller byte-untouched. Independently reproduced both load-bearing guards. NOT a five-issue close — the round-trip has not yet flown (it is gated behind the operator sudo docker build). Joint streak HOLDS 61.
Findings:
Completion-gate-ONLY + ascent-specific, confirmed by diff. The entire automation_maneuvers.py delta vs v0.65.22 is the completion-gate region: one comment, one alt_tol_frac = float(maneuver.get("alt_tol_frac", CIRCULARIZE_ALT_TOL_FRAC)) read, and the CIRCULARIZE_ALT_TOL_FRAC * target_alt → alt_tol_frac * target_alt substituti
