+# Ticket 101: Exclude local worktrees from project analysis tools
+
+- **ID**: ticket-101
+- **Owner**: unresolved:human
+- **Status**: IN_PROGRESS
+- **Workflow state**: PUBLICATION
+- **Created**: 2026-09-10
+
+## Goal and scope
+
+SESSION_EXECUTION_AUTHORIZATION: the user's 2026-09-10 request to continue,
+push, merge through independent validation, and test covers this delivery.
+It does not supply trusted approval or authorize a production deployment.
+
+Carry the exact project2.sh change from PR #117 (source commit
+43ffff549f92a5fffe03dde68144578c61aabb43) onto current protected main:
+pass the literal .worktrees/** exclusion to prefact alongside examples/**.
+Assign project2.sh to the existing governance workstream in the extendable
+target manifest. Do not alter protected gates or managed hashes.
+
+Preserve the original PR branch and commit. Its historical checkout is clean
+and now detached at protected main; effective systemd runtime is a different
+deployment checkout and remains unchanged. Do not publish raw generated
+reports or change the concurrent watcher work in ticket-100.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- [ ] AC-01: project2.sh is byte-identical to PR #117's version and retains the
+  quoted prefact exclusion without executing the heavy generation pipeline.
+- [ ] AC-02: Shell syntax, focused argument checking, full offline verification
+  and smoke pass; required hosted checks and independent exact-head approval
+  remain mandatory for protected merge.
+
+## Tracking boundary
+
+This directory contains the minimal reviewed intent. Optional participant prose
+and raw command logs are not required delivery output.
