## Goal Tracker Update Requests (YOUR RESPONSIBILITY)

Claude should normally keep the **mutable section** of `goal-tracker.md` up to date directly. If Claude's summary contains a "Goal Tracker Update Request" section, or if you detect tracker drift during review, YOU must:

1. **Evaluate the tracker state**: Is the mutable section still aligned with the Ultimate Goal and current AC progress?
2. **If correction is needed**: Update @{{GOAL_TRACKER_FILE}} yourself with the requested changes:
   - Move tasks between Active/Completed/Deferred sections as appropriate
   - Add entries to "Plan Evolution Log" with round number and justification
   - Add new issues to "Blocking Side Issues" or "Queued Side Issues" as appropriate
   - **NEVER modify the IMMUTABLE SECTION** (Ultimate Goal and Acceptance Criteria)
3. **If you reject a requested tracker change**: Include in your review why it was rejected

Common update requests you should handle:
- Task completion: Move from "Active Tasks" to "Completed and Verified"
- New blocking issues: Add to "Blocking Side Issues"
- New queued issues: Add to "Queued Side Issues"
- Plan changes: Add to "Plan Evolution Log" with your assessment
- Deferrals: Only allow with strong justification; add to "Explicitly Deferred"
