+# Away and quiet supervision safety
+
+The `/afk` and `/quiet` skills own their respective entry procedures and share the daemon machinery; [architecture](../../../docs/architecture.md) owns the captain-held recheck difference between their postures.
+These safety facts apply to both:
+
+- Every current daemon injection uses the `away-supervisor` kind from `bin/fm-operational-input.sh` after `FM_OPERATIONAL_PREFIX` (U+2063 INVISIBLE SEPARATOR followed by `FIRSTMATE_OP: `), except that a Claude Code primary, which strips U+2063, receives that owner's record-backed doorbell and it counts as marked only when `bin/fm-operational-input.sh open <path>` verifies its record; the `/afk` skill owns legacy bare-marker compatibility.
+- `state/.afk-contract` is the away posture, written in the same turn as `/afk` before any other work, because `/afk` is itself the go: no read-back gates entry or waits for a go; entry announces hold-for-return only, and the away session acts on those words by its own judgment through the guarded scripts under standing authority, holding for the return on doubt.
+  A record carrying quiet mode (`bin/fm-afk-contract.sh mode`) is quiet mode's instead: the captain is present, it holds nothing for a return, and requested actions proceed under ordinary attended authority.
+- While `state/.afk` exists, the daemon owns supervision; do not arm a separate watcher.
+  The daemon is never launched on Pi, where the ordinary supervision session continues under the record with main parked: the branch takes every safe actionable wake it can, and only a declined wake (including a broken branch or unsafe scan) or a watcher failure wakes main.
+  Away mode on a non-Pi home that runs the supervision host (by default on Claude; `docs/configuration.md` "Supervision host") works the same way with the supervision host as the branch; a wake it hands back arrives through that harness's own wake path and is never the captain's return.
+- A marked message while away or quiet mode is active is internal escalation and does not exit that mode.
+- A message beginning `/afk` refreshes away mode; a message beginning `/quiet` refreshes quiet mode.
+- Any other unmarked message means the captain returned in away mode (load `/afk`, run the return owner, and do not process that message as ordinary work until its durable catch-up gate clears), or, in quiet mode, is simply answered as ordinary work with the flag and daemon left untouched until an explicit `/quiet off`.
+- Away and quiet mode never expand approval authority for merges, ask-user findings, destructive actions, irreversible actions, or security-sensitive choices.
+- Bias ambiguous input toward exit because a present captain takes precedence.

 ## Policy
 
 Every unresolved question that belongs to the captain and is discovered while producing, reading, presenting, or ending an investigation or visual review must be carried by a captain-held task in the authoritative backlog of the home that owns the originating work before that work or review may be treated as complete.
+For a Lavish board-backed handoff, pass the reply through `bin/fm-procevent-lavish.sh arm --agent-reply-file` before appending the status; the adapter owns version-specific acceptance ordering.
 Prefer holding the work item the question gates over minting a new row; create a new task only when no work item exists to hold.
+The originating investigation or review is never its own inventory entry, so hold a separate task for the call and pass `--origin <origin-id>` so `complete` can check it.
 Put the question and its options in the hold reason, and keep one held task per genuine gate: a multi-question review is one held task pointing at its report, not a row per question. Represent that task with exactly one board card that consolidates its questions and options; never fan one task id into duplicate same-key cards.
 Register or re-hold through `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh hold`, which is idempotent per task id.
 After inventorying the whole report and review surface, run `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh complete` with every captain-held task id, or with `--none` only when the reviewed surface leaves nothing waiting on the captain.

 Never close anything the captain owns without recording what he actually said: `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh answer` writes his exact words into the task and closes a question-shaped call, while `--release` frees a captain-gated work item to proceed.
 A merge approval uses that existing release path because approval permits the merge to proceed; cleanup closes the work only after it lands and records what shipped.
 Closing a held row at merge approval instead records completion before landing, so the backlog claims completion before the work actually ships.

+When the answer changes what a task must build, follow `AGENTS.md` section 7's mid-task ask rule to preserve the captain's words in the brief and steer the worker.
 When the captain says "later", that is an answer too: re-hold with `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh hold <id> --reason "<reason>" --until <date>` so the item leaves the live Captain's Call and resurfaces on its date, instead of leaving a live-looking card or fabricating a closure.
 "A keyed answer resolves its matching captain-held task" is one capability with one owner, `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh answers`, and every channel that carries a captain answer feeds it the same task id and answer; a channel never maps keys to tasks, records a decision, or resolves anything itself.
 Chat already feeds it through `bin/fm-send.sh --resolve-key`, and a captured-answer source feeds it once bound with `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh bind <source-id>`; bind before arming the source, and key each structured question by the held task's id.
