The event-driven comment→CEO route (issue.comment.created) is best-effort:
a failed/coalesced/cancelled CEO invoke, or a comment that lands while an
agent is mid-run, can leave a chair comment unrouted with nothing to retry.
This is exactly how a chair comment on CMP-190 (2026-06-30) was silently
dropped — the host-native wake was cancelled (issue_execution_promoted /
assignee_changed) and no plugin route fired.
Adds a reconciliation sweep (route-pending-comments, every 2 min) that
re-routes any active issue whose LAST comment is the chair's (no agent reply
after it) and whose id ≠ the per-issue `last-routed-comment-id` marker.
Both the fast path and the sweep stamp the marker → idempotent, no
double-routing of healthy comments. "Last comment is user" precisely targets
the failure (chair commented, no agent response) and skips historically
answered comments, so first-run-after-deploy footprint is 0.
- worker.ts: extract shared routeCommentToCeo() + markCommentRouted();
event handler stamps marker (incl. the native-handles-it branch);
register route-pending-comments sweep with per-company/per-issue guards.
- manifest.ts: declare route-pending-comments job (*/2 * * * *).
Invariants: G12 (Paperclip touch only in the declared wrapper — plugin),
G2 (extends the existing route, no parallel path). Refs legal-ai #164.
