Delete branch "land/task/santi-compact-escape"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
room: offer the way out as the only tool
Refusing every ordinary call while the ceiling is exceeded left no way
out, because the operation that resolves it is reached through the shell
that is being refused. A soul met this exactly as built: it read the
refusal, judged correctly, tried the compaction twice with a named range,
was refused both times, and went back to the work it had been asked for,
which was refused too. It was not avoiding the block. It was sealed
inside one.
The tool layer already answers this. A surface is not a fixed list but a
function of the strand's state, and a constrained state replaces it with
the single operation that lifts the constraint: a clock strand is offered
wake and denied shell, a due feedback barrier is offered the call that
settles it. A strand over its ceiling is now offered compact and nothing
else. That is not the ordinary surface growing a second entrance; it is
the surface narrowing to one exit.
Adding the branch closed a cycle, since the estimate weighs the tools it
would offer and the offer now asks whether the strand is crowded. The
crowding question does not need instructions or tools to answer, only the
live bytes, so it takes a path that does not weigh them rather than being
boxed into a loop.
Verified against the strand that had been sealed: offered one tool, it
absorbed ten slots into one on the first call and resumed.
