I programmed our UR5e spacer sorting job. Operators can start it; empty pockets and interruptions still need me. I've omitted decisions, not found unwilling operators.

Write down your next decision when called, including what you inspect before making it.

Can an operator distinguish a genuinely empty source pocket from an uncertain pickup using the information you handed over? They may be right to stop and ask.

Agreed. A recovery sheet must not turn missing evidence into permission to continue.

No. My notes only describe a correctly loaded tray. That's the first gap I'll take back to them.

I would have one operator explain that case back to you before adding more pages. Then separate what they may do from what needs authorised review; I cannot pick those boundaries for this cell.

I'll start with their empty-pocket example and my decision record. No independent recovery signed off yet.
