Parked

Concept a word Carolverse uses with a precise meaning

๐Ÿ“–What it means

Work deliberately set aside by the operator. Parked is untouchable: no watchdog, strike or non-operator event may move it. Only the operator, or whoever resumes it, decides when it comes back.

โš–๏ธWhat it is NOT

The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.

Not: Blocked

Parked is a deliberate choice; blocked is a failure state. Blocked is terminal but revivable โ€” parked is simply waiting.

Not: Paused

Pausing suspends a droid's schedule; parking suspends a piece of WORK.
