About
The Handover Gap Detector Runner is a scheduled watcher droid owned by Orion. It exists to "detect centrally, act by owner": every two minutes it runs an agent-blind Handover Gap Detector service, which checks Pipeline for handover gaps and emits standard signals — dispatch-queue, needs_attention, escalation — that each owning agent's droids act on. It never performs the downstream work itself.
On each tick (cron /2 *), the runner invokes the Handover Gap Detector shared service (SVC-031), whose logic lives in shared/handover_gap_detector.py, and surfaces any stalls through the standard signal channels described in Scheduled Processes and Droid Families. Its constraints are strict: detection and signal-emission only, no block-owning actions, and no claiming of another agent's tasks.
The exact name "Handover Gap Detector Runner" is unique — only Orion runs this specific droid — but it is one instance of the watcher droid family, a standard reusable archetype that 15 droids across several agents run, including Albus and Sage. It is pure software: a source trace verified it makes no Claude calls, so no model or Claude purpose applies.
