Subject: [PATCH 1/6] recall.py dispatch: in-force neighbours of the ids a
 brief cites reach the subagent in its Agent prompt

neighbours(text, schemas, excluded, k, left) is the one query helper admit and dispatch share; fan_out and plain_id replace admit's private thread bookkeeping and id test. The fake binding answers view of any id and queries by text with scores.

+## 2026-11-06: dispatch recall, anchored on the ids a brief cites
+
+Hands, cut `eureka-substrate:cut_spec:cut-dispatch-recall-anchored.r1`.
+
+Evidence. Ruling `eureka-substrate:ruling:recall-triggers-rescoped` (operator: "I'm not sold on the recall hook tbh, this would only trigger off my messages? I don't think that would reliably close the knowledge gaps we're seeing"); the research pass `dispatch-recall-map` (a `PreToolUse` hook on `Agent|Task` can rewrite the brief with `updatedInput`, and settings hooks fire inside subagents; the anchored query beat the whole-brief query on precision in `recall-gap-replay` and `probe-anchored-vs-whole-brief`); two acts on 2026-11-06 against rulings nobody had queried.
+
+What changed. `tools/recall.py dispatch`: a `PreToolUse` command hook on `Agent|Task` that appends the in-force neighbours of the records the brief cites to the brief itself. `neighbours` is now one text-taking helper (with `fan_out` and `plain_id`) shared by admit and dispatch; admit's output is unchanged. `tools/test-tools.sh` gains the dispatch driver (D1 to D13) and the fake binding answers `view` of any id and queries by text with scores. The hook is not installed by this change.

Prompts under 3 words are not queried. Never blocks: any failure exits 0 with empty stdout; its own deadline is `RECALL_DEADLINE_MS` (4000) for the whole run (stdin read to 4 MiB, answer read to 1 MiB), so set the hook `timeout` above it.

 What changed. `tools/recall.py dispatch`: a `PreToolUse` command hook on `Agent|Task` that appends the in-force neighbours of the records the brief cites to the brief itself. `neighbours` is now one text-taking helper (with `fan_out` and `plain_id`) shared by admit and dispatch; admit's output is unchanged. `tools/test-tools.sh` gains the dispatch driver (D1 to D13) and the fake binding answers `view` of any id and queries by text with scores. The hook is not installed by this change.
 
+Fix pass (Soul s1): recall is per anchor. One cited id failing or refused no longer silences the rest: the other anchors' neighbours still reach the subagent and the failed id gets a status line naming it and the failure kind (`CheckFailed`, `Refused`, `NotHeld`); nothing prints only when no anchor could be checked. Every cited id, not just the first six, is kept out of the neighbours. D8's deadline check is bounded by the fake's own sleep, so a loaded host no longer fails it.

Subject: [PATCH 5/6] recall dispatch driver: D17 pins the hard stop (stdin
 held open, mutant without the exit timer fails it); D16 pins the mixed
 deadline; docs say silent only when no anchor answered

 What changed. `tools/recall.py dispatch`: a `PreToolUse` command hook on `Agent|Task` that appends the in-force neighbours of the records the brief cites to the brief itself. `neighbours` is now one text-taking helper (with `fan_out` and `plain_id`) shared by admit and dispatch; admit's output is unchanged. `tools/test-tools.sh` gains the dispatch driver (D1 to D13) and the fake binding answers `view` of any id and queries by text with scores. The hook is not installed by this change.
 
+Fix pass (Soul s2): dispatch driver D16 pins the mixed deadline (one anchor out of time gets its CheckFailed line while another answers; silent only when no anchor answered) and D17 pins the hard stop (payload written, stdin held open: exit 0, silent, at the deadline; the mutant with the `os._exit` timer neutered hangs and fails D17). Docs say the same.
 Fix pass (Soul s1): recall is per anchor. One cited id failing or refused no longer silences the rest: the other anchors' neighbours still reach the subagent and the failed id gets a status line naming it and the failure kind (`CheckFailed`, `Refused`, `NotHeld`); nothing prints only when no anchor could be checked. Every cited id, not just the first six, is kept out of the neighbours. D8's deadline check is bounded by the fake's own sleep, so a loaded host no longer fails it.

Subject: [PATCH 6/6] test-tools: restore the two literal CR bytes 52c54b7
 turned into newlines

The context-pack CRLF fixture (sed 's/$/\r/') and the CR-stripped check (tr -d '\r')
need a literal CR; an editor on Windows split each line at it. Byte-identical to
db2b250 on both lines (Soul s3 finding crlf-fixture-stripped).
