 ## Objective and phase
 
+Direct process/chain editing is now being implemented on `codex/process-direct`
+at base 1bf8ebc in the scenario checkout and its dedicated target. The previous
+scenario branch is retained. `release-process-editing.md` records the adopted
+direct occurrence/link, guard-preserving insertion, bounded picker, derived
+nesting and lifetime contract. This is desktop-only work; core/source/API types
+stay unchanged. Automated implementation evidence and root-owned native trials
+are pending. Cross-reference inner-chain linking remains an explicit semantic
+extension rather than a claim of full Capella chain equivalence.
 Direct scenario work is now in isolated `codex/scenario-direct`, checkout
