## Summary
- bump the central Delivery reference skill to v1.9.0
- define `READY_FOR_DELIVERY` as the exact Focus-admitted, pickup-ready Task state
- remove the obsolete second Focus `InBacklog` admission gate throughout the workflow
- preserve existing authority: Delivery claims an exact READY Task by moving it to `IN_PROGRESS`
## Validation
- `git diff --check`
- semantic assertions for version, required READY wording, and stale Focus `InBacklog` language
- byte-for-byte parity with the loaded v1.9.0 Delivery reference
## Review status
- Automated independent reviewer could not run because standalone Codex and Claude CLIs were not authenticated; review remains required before merge.
