Parent

Deepen observation-history publication, local-day evidence, and activity selection.

What to build

Keep pending publication bounded without discarding already measured evidence. In each normal collection run, attempt recovery and check the 6,720-observation admission limit before interrogating the drive; if still full, do not acquire another observation, fail visibly, and try recovery again on the next scheduled run. The resulting gap is not a deliberate disable or made-up activity.

Acceptance criteria

At 6,720 pending observations, recovery is attempted first; if it cannot free admission, acquisition is not invoked and the collection reports an explicit unsuccessful outcome through ordinary operator-visible paths.
All previously retained pending evidence survives the full queue and restart; age alone does not delete it and a missed run does not fabricate bytes or alter monitoring intent.
If recovery drains sufficient work before the capacity check, acquisition resumes and publishes in order without bypassing older evidence.
Check the normal collection entry path, including the pre-acquisition position, with temporary observation stores and controlled acquisition spies; keep existing native service cadence and retry behavior unchanged.
