# Next Work Plan

These are parallel workstreams. Continue each in its existing specialist chat or
engineering context.

## ANALYZER-REFINE-001 — Indirect command-resolution refinement

**Priority:** P0  
**Status:** Ready

1. refine Stage5B detection of indirect and table-driven command dispatch;
2. treat missing direct `0xAD` compares as scanner evidence, not handler absence;
3. inspect additional firmware families before generalizing patterns;
4. validate source, smoke tests, and generated reports before a full rerun;
5. avoid unnecessary Stage5B runs because they exceed 100 minutes;
6. preserve provenance-distinct firmware and ranking rows.

## EMU-v259 — Descriptor-output and media-window proof

**Priority:** P0  
**Status:** Ready in separate emulator workstream

Trace consumers of `0x06E4`, `0x06E0`, `0x06E1`, `0x06EC`, and `0x06ED`.
Keep `firmware_derived_delta=false` until execution proves otherwise.

## PFES-HW-MN103S-RECOVERY-001 — Recovery programmer incubation

**Priority:** P1  
**Status:** Rev B0 admitted; repository deferred

1. run and review KiCad ERC;
2. verify module spacing and connector/mechanical footprints;
3. complete PCB layout and DRC;
4. validate safe OE/reset/unpowered behavior by design review;
5. prepare first-article read-only ATA/ATAPI bring-up;
6. return a provenance-distinct updated package;
7. request repository-readiness review only after PFES-ENG-045 gates are met.

## PFES-REPO-003 — Independent backup

**Priority:** P2  
**Status:** Blocked on another physical disk

Same-HDD repositories, releases, and bundles remain recovery copies rather than
backups.

## PFES-HW-DH40N-001 — Identify HP DH40N controller architecture

**Priority:** P2  
**Status:** Deferred

Use only non-destructive identification and do not classify it as MN103S
without evidence.
