+# Deferred interview page work
+
+Behaviors the interview page does not build, each marked build (with its issue), park, drop, or open when the decision is still pending. Park keeps the entry for a later decision and is the reversible choice.
+
+Reason for parking: the owner's scope guard, "we want these to be, in most cases, kind of short-lived, on the fly. We ingest them and then move on". Sessions are short-lived and the page is not a durable store.
+
+## Decision gaps from the commitment rules
+
+| Entry | Decision |
+|---|---|
+| 1. A `hedged` decision kind on the page: the skill records a conditional accept as hedged, and the page has no such state | Build: #5471, after #4611 |
+| 2. The register gate grades a page export clean while commitments are unticked | Build: #5471, after #4611 |
+| 3. Addendum wording lint: whether the coined-term check becomes a script check | Open: awaiting the owner |
+
+## Deferred behaviors
+
+| Entry | Decision |
+|---|---|
+| "Accept all and have agents check them": a page button that hands a round to `/planning:audit-answers` | Build: #5472 |
+| A hidden-tab title badge | Build: #5473 |
+| Mermaid rendering, which needs a vendored renderer because the page's CSP allows no network source | Open: the renderer size is undecided, #5474 |
+| Composer extras: attachments (paste or drop images and video), link detection, markdown with code highlighting, slash autocomplete for skills and `@` for question ids, dragging a note onto a question | Park |
+| Hold sends; typed debounce | Park |
+| Server as sole writer of both files; SSE deltas with `Last-Event-ID`; a server idle exit | Park |
+| The stale cascade (automatic transitive re-staling) | Park |
+| Size-signal line and split proposal cards on the page | Park |
+| A minimum text size inside SVG | Park |
+| Monitor, plugin-monitor and channel wake rungs | Park |
+| A "What am I assuming?" button | Park |
+| A one-way/two-way door tag | Park |
+| An off-screen reply toast with a jump link | Park |
+| A SQLite store | Park |
+| Image export | Park |
+| The self-improvement loop (the interview skill improving the interview process) | Park |
+| Several sessions each taking a group | Park |
