Durable state is necessary, but it is not enough. Work must stay inside its assigned boundary, authority must expire without allowing a stale writer to return, and recovery must reconcile evidence rather than guess what a dead process accomplished.
Chapters 4 through 7 turn those constraints into mechanisms. You will qualify five different isolation planes, fence late writers, recover a process killed between intent and completion, and finally let a durable signal create governed work without a human prompt. The sequence matters. Proactive execution arrives last because it amplifies every boundary mistake that came before it.
The result is bounded autonomy: the organization may wake and act, while the host can still show which authority admitted the action, which workspace contained it, and which evidence survived a crash.
