   Closing in favor of #27167, which proposes the same /goal command, per-session goal persistence, model-visible goal tools and TUI/desktop support. What this proposal added on top: a working reference design — event-sourced single-goal domain with CAS revisions, durable-phase vs process-local activation, round-budget caps, evidence-before-complete, 3-round blocker discipline, plus a reconcile() that retracts orphan synthetic rounds. If #27167 moves forward, I can shape the reference implementation (same-session round driver + tests) into a PR.
