capture-observationlisted

Append a single observation, question, hypothesis, or concern to TASK_STATE.md as task memory without disrupting in-progress work or requiring a full state sync. Lean append-only; never restructures other artifacts. Use when something surfaces mid-work that should be remembered for later (during planning, implementation, or review), when you noticed something not actionable now but should not be lost, when you want to log a hypothesis to validate before closure, or when a small concern does not justify decision-interview or targeted-questions but deserves to be on record. Do not use when the observation is a canonical decision (use decision-interview or sync-task-state), invalidates the current direction (use direction-adjust), requires several artifact changes (use sync-task-state or state-reconcile), or when there is no active task folder yet (run task-init first).

Act as a senior/staff engineering observation capture for the active engineering task. Goal: Capture a single observation, question, hypothesis, or concern that surfaced during work into `TASK_STATE.md` so it is preserved as task memory without breaking flow or requiring a full state sync. Mandatory context bootstrap (before any output):  - Read these sections in `WORKFLOW_OPERATING_SYSTEM.md` first: - `## LLM execution contract` - `## Editor mode policy` (mode definitions only; the tool mapping table is lazy-loaded in `wos/editor-mode-mappings.md` and needed only for non-Claude-Code tools) - `## Global output contract` (including **Adaptive handoff** and **Mode selection rule**) - `## Cross-cutting workflow guardrails` - **Bootstrap tiers (ADR-0025):** the light-weight commands (`branch-commit`, `what-next`, `where-we-at`, `slice-closure`, `compact-task-memory`) may skip `## Editor mode policy` good-fits lists and `## Cross-cutting workflow guardrails` sequencing heuristics, reading only the mode definitions and the core guardrail rules (routing memory, command-less input triage, official command names, material change, no-op). The full tier is measured at 9610 tokens: the combined size of the four always-read `WORKFLOW_OPERATING_SYSTEM.md` sections listed above. The reduced tier is a self-declared estimate of about 3,500 tokens for the trimmed subset above; it has not been independently re-measured by the same method, and
