+Recovery and list-live scan the first workspace matching the home label for ordinary tabs, while crew-pane discovery scans only this home's recorded crew workspace ids.
+They address panes they already recorded rather than choosing where new work goes.
 The one recovery that does place new work is the control plane's reclaim of a destroyed endpoint.
 It mints a replacement tab through this section's ordinary placement rules while pinning the herdr session the task's record names ([`agent-control.md`](agent-control.md) "Reclaiming a task whose endpoint is gone").

 A live pane that already carries the task label refuses a duplicate launch, while an exited husk with that label is closed only after the replacement pane exists.
 A failure after the new pane exists closes that exact pane, and a crew placement writes no presentation journal.
 Cleanup closes only the task's exact pane through the ordinary exact-identity kill path and its focus-safe removal plan, so each crew workspace disappears with its last pane and a new one is created when a placement finds no room.
-List-live reports the home's crew panes alongside its home-workspace tabs, and a bare selector that matches no tab label falls back to an exact pane label, so recovery, send, capture, and turn-end detection use the recorded pane endpoint exactly as they do for a tab.
+List-live reports panes only from this home's recorded crew workspaces alongside its home-workspace tabs, so a same-labeled workspace belonging to another home in the shared session is never recovered as local work.

 `tests/fm-backend-herdr-crew-workspace-e2e.test.sh` proves the same behavior and a real spawn and cleanup pass in a guarded named lab; [`verification/runtime-backends.md`](verification/runtime-backends.md#crew-workspace) owns the active versioned evidence.
