 Item 1 substrate hardening pass: newly appended events use schema envelope version 1; replay rejects unsupported versions and non-object payloads; and `TaskLeased` carries an `expected_version` guard that is checked before append. Legacy envelope events remain readable for tolerant replay.
 
+Harness registration now uses configured `harness` and `protocol` fields, pings each configured herdr before exposing it to orchestration, selects Claude/Codex/opencode adapters accordingly, and skips unavailable or unsupported deployments at startup. This is an initial discovery/health slice; active-session discovery and ongoing heartbeats remain open.

 Recommended order:
 
 1. Add the orchestration coordinator: lease → worktree → harness session → bootstrap → lifecycle events.
