las + 4b15a997 + 2026-09-16 + las/.worktrees/mvp + 1.6M — Suggested verdict: review. Reason: PR open — work in flight.The <home> directory accounts for the entire 5.4M waste total, despite its acceptance ratio being 0.0 due to it being unmeasurable.

Measurability caveat (generated, not model-authored): <home> (5.4M) ran outside any git repo. There is no diff to credit, so a 0.0 acceptance ratio there is the meter failing to see the work — not a judgement on it. Only ratios on measurable: true projects are verdicts.
Headline is accepted tokens (active lane, manual label wins over git auto-classification). Unsettled = committed-not-merged + open-loop. "Active" excludes cache replay; "spend" includes it.
Each cell = one UTC day, color intensity = log10(active tokens). Hover for date + counts.
