No reviewer has touched them \u2014 reviewed_at is empty on all 14 pending proposals. They are not stuck on a pointer problem; they haven't been reviewed at all yet.\n\n3. The \"stuck\" cause is absence of review, not bad pointers. The pointer issue is real \u2014 telegram-doc and telegram-resolved-attachment refs aren't the same as confirmed `public.sources` rows \u2014 but that's a quality concern a reviewer would flag during review, not a pre-review blocker.\n\n4. The two applied proposals got through because they were canary/procedural (edge canary) or had explicit m3ta sign-off on a narrow scope (Leo guiding-policy revision).\n\nSo the honest answer: pending proposals are stuck because no reviewer has processed them, and when review does happen, some will need source rows created in `public.sources` before evidence can be formally attached. Pointer hygiene is a second-order problem that surfaces during apply, not the root cause of the backlog.\n\nNext Cory-style follow-up: The proof-changing action is a reviewer/operator working through the pending queue \u2014 starting with the 3 approved-but-not-applied proposals (`14fa5ecc`, `ac036c9d`, `a64df080`) before clearing the pending backlog.

The product flow is: review packet \u2192 authorization \u2192 apply tool \u2192 postflight readback confirms rows changed.\n\nWhat the Tier 1 demo proves: Leo can receive input, evaluate it, and write a structured reviewable proposal to durable Postgres storage in real time \u2014 that's the coordination-primitive that matters.\n\nWhat it does not prove: that canonical `public.*` changed.
