+Executing Phase 9 via `/gsd:execute-phase 9`. Waves 1-2 complete, Waves 3-4 remaining.
+
+Wave 1 (09-01) and Wave 2 (09-02) completed successfully. User paused mid-orchestration before Wave 3.

+
+## Wave 1: 09-01 Batch Command Parsing ✓
+- Batch command detection ("update plex sonarr radarr")
+- Container matching with exact-match priority
+- Disambiguation flow for ambiguous matches
+- Batch stop confirmation (fuzzy matching risk)
+- 19 new workflow nodes added
+- Commits: 9e7ff2a, f02f984, feea06c, 1274eab
+
+## Wave 2: 09-02 Sequential Batch Execution ✓
+- Loop Over Items with batch size 1 (sequential)
+- Per-container progress updates via editMessageText
+- Error isolation (onError: continueRegularOutput)
+- Failure-emphasized summary with "Back to List" button
+- 20 new workflow nodes added
+- Commits: 62f50cb, fd4c614, b704a6c, 3e5fa5d
+
+</completed_work>
+
+<remaining_work>
+
+## Wave 3: 09-03 "Update all" and inline multi-select
+- "Update all" command with update availability check
+- Inline keyboard multi-select for batch operations
+- 2 tasks, autonomous
+
+## Wave 4: 09-04 Verification and testing (CHECKPOINT)
+- Deploy and test batch text commands
+- Human verification checkpoint for all batch flows
+- `autonomous: false` - requires user testing
+
+</remaining_work>
+
+<decisions_made>
+
+- Exact match has absolute priority (user typing exact name expects that container)
+- Batch stop requires confirmation (fuzzy matching risk)
+- Comma-separated names in callback (fits 64-byte limit)
+- Two-phase execution for name-only containers (callbacks need lookup first)
+- onError: continueRegularOutput (one failure doesn't abort batch)
+- Warnings shown in detail for <= 3 (per context discretion)

+Running execute-phase orchestration. The pattern is:
+1. Read plans, group by wave
+2. Spawn gsd-executor per plan in wave (parallel within wave, sequential across waves)
+3. Collect summaries, verify phase goal
+4. Update roadmap/state
+
+Wave 4 (09-04) has `autonomous: false` so it will pause for human verification checkpoint - user needs to test batch commands in Telegram.
+
+Model profile: balanced (executor: sonnet, verifier: sonnet)
+</context>
+
+<next_action>
+Resume `/gsd:execute-phase 9` to:
+1. Execute Wave 3 (09-03: "update all" and inline multi-select)
+2. Execute Wave 4 (09-04: verification checkpoint - will pause for human testing)
+3. Run verifier and complete phase
+
+Or run `/gsd:resume-work` which will detect this file and continue.
