Design a discovery-first survivorlike under the [Owner Brief](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Brief), with expressive builds, meaningful hordes and an authored colony. Written comparisons establish proposals and dependencies; they do not demonstrate fun, balance, accessibility, production feasibility or campaign duration. This phase remains design only.

PM's narrow parent-equipment alignment432 and legacy Discovery Chain/Expedition integration441–443 are complete. The latter preserves historical post-death routes and world-time capture with full frozen journal inspection; it grants no new access guarantee. Global04 preparation closed518 at11:07:24 after accepted577236e7 and all eleven parent alignments were independently verified. Owner-dependent branches remain unselected. Do not treat a former fixed-anchor alternative as owner-selected, or invent destruction, duplication or survivor loss to handle a shift.

**Remaining M3 scope and staffing:** use the [Coverage finish map](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Design%20Coverage):35 representative mechanical/quantity rules,36 evidence/state crosswalk, remaining actual-ID reference checks using prepared34 and closed04, finite scope/handoff and one coherence disposition. Full scripts and exhaustive variants belong to M4. **Adopted F1.14 forecast — 9 September:** M3 first-pass wiki now targets **14 September (11–18 September), low confidence**. M2 coherent core remains11 September (10–14); M4 detailed campaign remains10 November (20 October–1 December). The revision follows the remaining-deliverables audit and preparation closeouts25–33, including the actual24-module/40-room and ten-encounter/thirteen-mechanism first passes. It uses current PM, Systems and restored original Lead/Reviewer capacity; additional agents are not prerequisites. It is a scope-based calendar judgment, not a conversion of word counts or elapsed chat minutes into role-hours. A changed joining architecture, expanded first-pass scope, unresolved integration or unavailable capacity can move the estimate. No extra agent creation is required today; a10Sep technical/production candidate is useful only for a concrete independent handoff gap. Next ordinary forecast review9Sep18:00. Earlier Sep22/Sep25 scenarios remain historical; yesterday’s F1.14 draft was unpublished.

**New rescue question now with the owner (485):** if the astronaut dies during an eligible short rescue, use a protected retreat that leaves the survivor alive and unsent in the prepared refuge before one shift, with spent supplies still spent and a new short route to find; or allow danger and prepare concrete injury/loss options for a later choice. The proposed protection is new and unselected. No answer is inferred; the earlier four questions remain pending, making five.
