The attention-budget test kept an older InboxMessage fixture shape after message action hints gained canonical reply and mark-read fields. Updating the fixture makes the hooks package typecheck meaningful again without changing runtime behavior. Constraint: Production inbox payloads still expose both canonical action fields and the older reply_with/mark_read_with aliases. Rejected: Cast the fixture to any | would hide future contract drift. Confidence: high Scope-risk: narrow Directive: Keep test fixtures structurally complete when InboxMessage grows; avoid casts that bypass the contract. Tested: pnpm --filter @colony/hooks typecheck; pnpm --filter @colony/hooks test -- attention-budget.test.ts; pnpm --filter @colony/hooks test; pnpm exec biome check packages/hooks/test/attention-budget.test.ts; git diff --check Not-tested: repo-wide pnpm -r typecheck.
attention_inbox listed every stalled/dead lane by default, which made the normal coordination check expensive in active repos. This keeps the total count as the durable signal, caps returned lane rows, and lets MCP/CLI callers raise the row limit when they need the full list. Constraint: Agents need stalled lane awareness without hydrating unbounded coordination history. Rejected: Hide stalled lanes completely | loses takeover signal and makes the summary count unactionable. Confidence: high Scope-risk: narrow Directive: Keep default coordination payloads bounded; add explicit expansion knobs instead of widening defaults. Tested: pnpm --filter @colony/core test -- attention-inbox.test.ts; pnpm --filter @colony/mcp-server test -- server.test.ts; pnpm --filter @colony/hooks test -- attention-budget.test.ts; pnpm --filter @colony/core typecheck; pnpm --filter @colony/mcp-server typecheck; pnpm --filter @imdeadpool/colony-cli typecheck; pnpm exec biome check touched files; openspec validate agent-codex-make-colony-less-token-consuming-2026-04-29-02-54 --strict Not-tested: full monorepo test suite

The compact-inbox implementation merged in PR #244, but the source OpenSpec task file still had unchecked completion boxes. Recording the PR merge and cleanup evidence keeps the durable task artifact aligned with repo truth. Constraint: Follow-up is bookkeeping only; runtime code already merged in b937fb7. Rejected: Leave the checklist stale | future agents would treat completed work as unfinished. Confidence: high Scope-risk: narrow Directive: Do not reopen compact inbox implementation from this checklist; use PR #244 merge evidence as the closeout source. Tested: openspec validate agent-codex-make-colony-less-token-consuming-2026-04-29-02-54 --strict; git diff --check Not-tested: runtime suites not rerun; no runtime code changed.
