The state machine's `Stage` enum becomes the source of truth for pipeline
state. Six stages of work land together:
1. Clean wire vocabulary (`coding`, `merge`, `merge_failure`, ...) replaces
legacy directory-style strings (`2_current`, `4_merge`, ...) on the wire.
`Stage::from_dir` accepted both during deployment; new writes always
emit the clean form via `stage_dir_name`. Lexicographic `dir >= "5_done"`
checks in lifecycle.rs become typed `matches!` checks since the new
vocabulary doesn't sort in pipeline order.
2. `crdt_state::write_item` takes typed `&Stage`, serialising via
`stage_dir_name` at the CRDT boundary. `#[cfg(test)] write_item_str`
parses legacy strings for test fixtures.
3. `WorkItem::stage()` returns typed `crdt_state::Stage`; `stage_str()`
is gone from the public API. Projection dispatches on the typed enum.
4. `frozen` becomes an orthogonal CRDT register. `Stage::Frozen` and
`PipelineEvent::Freeze`/`Unfreeze` are removed; `transition_to_frozen`/
`unfrozen` set the flag directly without touching the stage register.
5. Watcher sweep and `tool_update_story`'s `blocked` setter route through
`apply_transition` so the typed transition table validates every
stage change. `update_story` gains a `frozen` field for symmetry.
6. One-shot startup migration rewrites pre-934 directory-style stage
registers (and sets `frozen=true` on items previously at `7_frozen`).
`Stage::from_dir` drops legacy aliases. The db boundary keeps a small
normaliser so callers with legacy strings (MCP, tests) still work.

Replaces the YAML-only `type: epic` / `epic: <id>` front-matter fields with
typed CRDT registers on PipelineItemCrdt. The epic-mechanism MCP tools
(`tool_list_epics`, `tool_show_epic`), the epic-context injection in agent
spawn, and the type-classifier helpers (`item_type_from_id`, `is_bug_item`,
`is_refactor_item`) now all read from the CRDT.
Schema:
- PipelineItemCrdt: `item_type: LwwRegisterCrdt<String>` and
`epic: LwwRegisterCrdt<String>` registers.
- WorkItem: typed `item_type()` and `epic()` accessors returning `Option<&str>`.
- crdt_state::set_item_type(story_id, Option<&str>) and
crdt_state::set_epic(story_id, Option<&str>) typed setters.
Write paths populate the new registers:
- create_story_file / create_bug_file / create_spike_file /
create_refactor_file / create_epic_file — each calls set_item_type after
write_story_content.
- tool_update_story intercepts `epic` and `type` fields and routes them to
the typed setters (same pattern as qa / depends_on).
Read paths migrated off yaml_legacy:
- http/mcp/story_tools/epic.rs: tool_list_epics + tool_show_epic.
- agents/lifecycle.rs::item_type_from_id (numeric-only IDs).
- agents/pool/start/spawn.rs epic-context injection.
- http/workflow/bug_ops/bug.rs::is_bug_item, refactor.rs::is_refactor_item.
- http/workflow/pipeline.rs::load_pipeline_state — review_hold/qa/epic_id
all come from the CRDT now; only merge_failure is still YAML (sweep in
929 stage 10).
All `yaml_residue(...)` wraps for item_type / epic are removed; the
remaining residue marker doc no longer references 933.
cargo fmt --check, clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings, and the 2857-test
suite all pass.

Three MCP files touched:
- status_tools.rs (story-status JSON dump): every field with a CRDT
equivalent now reads from WorkItem (name, agent, blocked, qa_mode,
retry_count, depends_on, claimed_by, claimed_at) or MergeJob.error
(merge_failure detail). One field — review_hold — has no CRDT register
yet (sub-story 932) and is wrapped in `yaml_residue(parse_front_matter(...))`
so the gap is visible at every code-search.
- qa_tools.rs:
• tool_approve_qa wraps the legacy `clear_front_matter_field("review_hold")`
write in `yaml_residue(...)` pending sub-story 932.
• tool_reject_qa now reads the agent name from the CRDT WorkItem instead
of parsing front matter on disk.
- story_tools/epic.rs: the entire epic feature (item_type, epic link)
has no CRDT analog — sub-story 933. Every parse_front_matter call here
is wrapped in `yaml_residue(...)`.
Also: new identity wrapper `db::yaml_legacy::yaml_residue<T>(v: T) -> T`
that marks a yaml_legacy callsite blocked on a CRDT-register gap. Pure
identity at runtime; the distinctive name makes the residue grep-findable
(`grep -rn yaml_residue`). Sub-stories 932 and 933 enumerate the gaps.
Filed:
- 932: Add CRDT register for review_hold
- 933: Add CRDT registers for the epic mechanism
All 2854 tests pass; fmt + clippy clean.
