-  - _Blocked: spec scheduler-sim-discrete-clock is at requirements-generated (not approved or implemented); the simulator's own session-begin clock read (sim_loop.c) still drifts at --sim-speed ≥ 1, so a replayed `from` cannot yet be shown equal at default settings_
 
 ## Implementation Notes
 - `xce-build.sh` resolves a relative build dir under `src/`: `bash src/tools/xce-build.sh lib asan xce.build.alloceq` builds into `src/xce.build.alloceq`, so iterate with `meson test -C src/xce.build.alloceq`.
 - `xce-build.sh lib` runs only the `libxce test` binary; run `meson test -C src/xce.build.alloceq "libxce alloc OOM test"` (or plain `meson test`) for the allocation OOM binary, which also wraps `vasprintf`/`__vasprintf_chk` since 2.1.
-- Simulation mode (`sim_loop.c`) still takes its own session-begin clock reading before `xce_core_begin_session()`; by design that is left to spec scheduler-sim-discrete-clock (3.1 fixed only the normal-mode recorder).
+- Simulation mode (`sim_loop.c`) still takes its own session-begin clock reading before `xce_core_begin_session()`; by design that is left to spec scheduler-sim-discrete-clock (3.1 fixed only the normal-mode recorder). UPDATE 2026-09-29: spec scheduler-sim-discrete-clock is implemented (commits 4f653d8f..d9bc36cd; validation GO): the simulator clock is pinned, and a replayed `session_start` equals the recorded `beginRound` exactly at default settings, so 5.3 is unblocked.
 - 4.2 left the `from`-excluded comments at `test_sim_verify.c` ~639-681 for 4.3, which inverts the test they document.
 - `sim_verify.c` builds descriptions with `vsnprintf` + `malloc`, not `vasprintf`: about 25 scheduler tests `#include "../src/sim_verify.c"` after `<stdio.h>` without `_GNU_SOURCE`. Same ownership contract as libxce.
 - 5.2: `xce-build.sh all` stops at the xceadmin live-HA e2e test (`test_live_config_push_against_primary_reaches_success_path`, versionTag 0); it uses controller binaries from the shared default build dirs, not this build. The spec needs only lib/scheduler/controller: built with `--incremental` per component, then `meson test --no-suite xceadmin` gave 116/116, 0 Unity :FAIL lines, 0 sanitizer reports.
