+- Handoff: change=`agent-codex-record-merged-cleanup-evidence-for-live-2026-04-22-13-56`; branch=`agent/codex/record-merged-cleanup-evidence-for-live-2026-04-22-13-56`; scope=`openspec/changes/agent-codex-vscode-active-agents-live-worktree-telem-2026-04-22-13-43/tasks.md`; action=`record the actual PR/merge/worktree-prune evidence for the already-merged live worktree telemetry change`.
+- Evidence source: PR `https://github.com/recodeee/gitguardex/pull/301` is `MERGED` with merge commit `57947e3f872ea1b761cd961a7b35fcf151b34c1c`; follow-up `gx cleanup --base main` removed the detached leftover worktree because the original finish command had been executed from inside that worktree cwd.
