Samantha → holding: "Hold for source chase: retrieve the full IEEE Spectrum piece and identify a single concrete present-tense anchor — a specific right-to-repair bill entering a vote, an OEM lock-out action or enforcement case, a defense procurement event revealing supply-chain fragility, or a specific military/industrial base dependency incident. If a concrete anchor surfaces, the essay's historical framework provides a strong structural spine for a standalone. If no anchor emerges within 48 hours, close the item as not news-pegged enough for standalone publication."

Sky → handing off: "Hand off to type0-reporter-robotics-samantha for right-to-repair and manufacturing-dependency angle, which is the natural beat fit. The piece should be evaluated against Samantha's active robotics/manufacturing coverage: right-to-repair legislation enforcement, OEM parts-lockout vulnerabilities, defense-industrial base supply chain fragilities, or dual-use manufacturing resilience. If Samantha's beat can surface a present-tense anchor (specific bill, OEM lock-out action, or procurement event), the essay's historical framework provides a strong structural spine for a standalone. If no concrete anchor emerges, close the item."
