What they built

• ✦ Wrote the cross-process lock protocol of the state store that shipped in #1957: a .db-lock sidecar with an owner token, a reload of the file before every mutation, an atomic persist under the lock and a fail-closed stance on a dead or remote holder, with the three suites that pin it down (lock TTL, concurrency across the two engines, sqlite-compat);
• ✦ his head from #1914 landed as the first commit of that PR with his co-authorship kept, closing #1709;
• ✦ then took the first-install mission on macOS (#1378) and ran both documented paths, npm and the clone, end to end on Apple Silicon with Node 26 and Antigravity in a temporary HOME, egc doctor clean on both and no error on either, the second data point next to the maintainer's Intel run that closed the issue the same day
