 ## Intent And Constraints
 
+- Cleanup follow-up: user explicitly approved removing this source worktree and its ignored dependencies/build output while preserving branches and commits. Same-task official start/status and Concurrent/Planning Gates passed; source is clean, ready, managed and its latest HEAD is an ancestor of the primary branch. Use official retire from the primary checkout and record the result here; unrelated documents remain untouched.
 - Concurrent, Planning and Integration Gates Passed. Official start/status match Identity and exclusive integration ownership. Read entry, own/source records, positioning/current-state/decisions/architecture/domain and relevant evidence/commitment indexes; refreshed registered peer scope sections and reused unchanged prior context. Historical placeholder scopes have no concrete dependency on this merge; isolated pricing work is out of scope.
 - User explicitly approved release --force of the completed prior primary owner and --adopt-existing for the known foreign documents. Preserve their exact states and exclude them from commits. Source task records remain read-only.
 - Plan: merge the exact source; verify ancestry, unchanged product/test/source-record bytes and retained main documentation; promote accepted icon facts; pass documentation/whitespace gates, commit and complete. Reuse the independent review and source tests when product bytes match. No new subagents, push, deployment, model calls or worktree deletion.

 ## Follow-ups
 
 - Compatible three-end deployment, Operations configuration sync and real-client image acceptance remain separate. Older topics keep their published definition; a new topic uses the synchronized icon.
-- Source worktree D:\Datas\OthersProjects\.codex-worktrees\makelore\20260926-agent-avatar-ml-3c3686ec on branch codex/20260926-agent-avatar-ml-3c3686ec-agent-avatar-ml is retained awaiting post-merge cleanup confirmation. Removing it would also remove ignored dependencies/build output; branches and commits must remain.
+- Official retire removed the Git worktree association but failed to remove all files (Directory not empty). The exact approved directory D:\Datas\OthersProjects\.codex-worktrees\makelore\20260926-agent-avatar-ml-3c3686ec remains with no .git marker; branch codex/20260926-agent-avatar-ml-3c3686ec-agent-avatar-ml and integrated source commit remain intact. User explicitly authorized residue deletion and release-missing --force. Automatic approval rejected the PowerShell residue deletion with 'blocked by policy' again after the explicit recovery approval; no reason beyond that text was provided. No alternate deletion route was attempted. Cleanup is blocked pending manual directory removal or a policy change; after the exact path is absent, existing user authorization covers official release-missing.
