What changed

docs/roadmap.md only:

  • B4 moves from Not started to In progress — #308;
  • its Picked up line says what the spike is (six cross-file eval tasks, three configurations, a
    pre-registered abandon condition) and that the implementation is not started — a follow-up issue
    exists only if the numbers say go;
  • the summary row counts follow: In progress 2 → 3, Not started 21 → 20, and the Total command still
    prints 40.

Why

The roadmap's own words are that B4 is the largest bet and needs a spike before an implementation. Until
now that instruction lived in the prose; the spike is now an issue with a method, a deliverable and a
pre-registered condition for stopping, so the next session reads the commitment instead of re-deriving
it.

The state is "In progress" rather than "Not started" because work on the entry has begun, and the Picked
up line keeps it honest: nothing has been built.

Verification

  • grep -Ec '^\| [A-H][0-9] \| .* \| (Delivered —|Refuted|In progress|Not started)' docs/roadmap.md → 40.
  • grep -n '^| In progress \|^| Not started \|^| B4 ' docs/roadmap.md → 3 / 20 / the new row.
  • git log --format='%h %G? %s' → G.

Refs #308, #168

#308 is the spike the entry asks for before an implementation: six cross-file
eval tasks, three configurations, and a pre-registered abandon condition. B4
moves to In progress with a Picked up line that says the spike is the whole of
the work so far and that an implementation issue exists only if the numbers say
go.

In progress 2 -> 3, Not started 21 -> 20; the total row still prints 40.
