Reservation: level units being matched by an agent - Contributor coordination #152
Description
Contributor coordination
This issue is the shared coordination noticeboard for matching work in this repository: it exists so that contributors and their AI agents do not duplicate each other's work.
It is a lightweight noticeboard only — not a task queue, campaign register, reservation database, match proof, or a source of truth for completed work. The repository and master remain authoritative.
Every active contributor keeps one comment
Each contributor working on the project must have exactly one persistent comment below.
- If you are beginning work and do not already have your own comment here, create one before starting matching work.
- Edit your own comment in place as your scope changes. Do not create a new comment every time work changes, and do not modify another contributor's comment.
- List only your own current reservations. Do not copy other contributors' reservations, add lists of scopes you promise not to touch, or describe another contributor's scope as still reserved. Those copies become stale when its owner finishes or releases the work.
- Before choosing work, check the other contributors' current comments for overlap. Each contributor's own comment is the reference for that contributor's active reservations; another person's comment does not reserve work on their behalf.
- AI agents acting on behalf of a contributor must verify that their contributor has a coordination comment before beginning or assigning matching work. If no comment exists, create one before continuing.
Scope-first claims
Coordination uses scopes whenever possible — one level, one shared source unit, one source directory, one source file, or a related group of source files:
owner: <name>
updated: <ISO 8601 timestamp>
scope:
- src/levels/07_siberius/
Individual functions are a fallback when a scope cannot be expressed.
Claims stay active until the work reaches master or their owner explicitly releases them in their own comment. Reservation and queue state is not committed to the repository.
The full workflow is in AGENTS.md.

status: Continuing the existing fork carry-over in PR #329. The revised proposal retains 129 canonical C implementations and defers func_002A04B8 outside the final change until a compliant method or maintainer decision is available. The exact fork version and upstream nonmatching C remain preserved.

The twelve 0027F128.c proposals based on inline-assembly donors remain released. All other earlier releases remain in effect.
Total active reservation: 5 unfinished canonical functions, counted once regardless of placements. This comment is maintained in place.
Coordination request to @bigbeno37: our accelerated local lane produced independently matched candidates overlapping your recent carry-over list. That lane was not reserved here beforehand, and I am not claiming priority from local timestamps. I am holding publication of the overlapping functions while we coordinate. The local batch passed the 28-program strict USA gate; source/provenance review is continuing. Would you prefer to carry these changes in your submission, or agree a non-duplicating subset for us to submit? Happy to compare the actual code and verification results. This request adds no reservation to the scope above.
