 ## Follow-ups
 
+- Planner review of `977445b..a795e0c` returned `Standards Pass / Spec Needs
+  Fix` and requires direct final-ASAR composition smoke, distinct cold/warm
+  prompt milestones, live 4-parent/4-child UI pressure plus cleanup proof, ASAR
+  path enumeration for OpenCode residue, and the declared Linux x64 RPM target.
 - PI-160 should integrate candidate `a795e0c` and this task record, then perform
   canonical project-memory reconciliation in an integration-owned worktree.
 - Keep missing macOS x64/arm64 artifact/runtime/resource/performance evidence as
