v2.8.37

[2026-11-10] — v2.8.37: citizens at any path, the fleet read through memory's door, quieter hooks

Added

• adopt / spawn: adopt works at any path, in contractor or framework mode; spawn adopt-citizen moves a citizen whole.
• flow: a moved citizen keeps its plans; a registry move verb; seats come from the declared roots.
• trigger: medic warns on a user service that restart-loops or fails.

Changed

• The fleet is read through memory's door: trigger's log watcher and error gate, prax dashboards and monitor labels, ai_mail contacts, @all and central stats, daemon activity reports, the commons agents table, spawn update --all, migrate-passports and adopt, hooks session reclaim and the dispatch-lock count, skills branch_health and inbox_check (by name too), devpulse release_notify roots and the watchdog resolver. No module keeps a private list of citizens.
• api: the host's git changes come from one shared sweep per repo.
• prompts: @aipass is described as the user's handyman, a seat that builds.

Fixed

• hooks: a PostToolUse finding reaches the model and never the user's chat; a passing PostToolUse hook prints nothing; the context window comes from a live source, with no model lists; a dispatch grant reaches a citizen in a nested project.
• api: a slash command typed in the BAUD chat (/prep, /clear) shows in the agent feed as typed, so the sender's pending mark settles instead of reading "not delivered" after a turn that ran (handlers/host/agent_transcript.py 1.1.0). Same cure the ! shell line got.
• docs: the Linux-only notice asks for transition in the issue title, not a label an outsider cannot apply, and says the Docker image is to come; the merge playbook names the lint-only gate and the three required checks.
