Investigating the "dead cap" turned up the opposite of what it looked like, plus a worse problem next to it. The Plan Review replan loop was NOT unbounded. U3 re-owned the cap-park in the graph: requestPreMergeOptionalStepFix parks via parkPlanReviewReplanCapExhausted at awaiting-approval with reason plan-review-replan-cap, on both an explicit finite budget and the unbounded default. That capability has been live throughout. What was actually dead: 1. PLAN_REVIEW_GATE_REPLAN_CAP = 8 — an unread constant belonging to the out-of-graph triage gate (runPlanReviewBeforeExecution) that U10/R4 deleted. Its companion column Task.planReviewReplanCount was persisted, serialized and reset but never incremented or compared. A constant and a column that look like a live safety ceiling while enforcing nothing are worse than no ceiling: they answer "is this loop bounded?" with a confident yes. Deleted, ratcheted in legacy-tombstones.test.ts, and the column documented as legacy/never-written with the live owner named. 2. planReviewReplanCap — an operator-facing setting, declared, validated, documented in settings-reference.md and editable in the Workflow Editor, that NOTHING read. Lowering it changed nothing. The unbounded backstop was instead hardcoded to PLAN_REVIEW_FEEDBACK_HISTORY_LIMIT — a bound on how much reviewer PROSE is replayed into the next planning prompt, whose own comment says it is "bounded independently of persistence and retry accounting". Two unrelated concerns shared one number, so trimming prompt history would have silently tightened a safety ceiling. The backstop now resolves from the setting, defaulting to the new DEFAULT_PLAN_REVIEW_REPLAN_CAP = 15 — the previously-effective value, so this is a pure re-wiring rather than a silent behavior change. The existing 15-attempt regression test passes unchanged, which is the evidence for that. 0 is honored as park-on-first-REVISE. An explicit planReviewMaxRevisions / node maxRevisions budget remains a stricter, earlier gate. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
