# Track chunkification_optimization_20260608_PLACEHOLDER Context

**Status:** DEFERRED (contingency only — does not start without explicit activation)

- [Specification](./spec.md) — the 1-page contingency document
- [Metadata](./metadata.json) — activation criteria + shape_when_activated
- [State](./state.toml) — deferred status + user_corrections_log + activation-gated tasks

## Activation Criteria

This track activates only when ALL of the following are true:
1. Profiling shows a real bottleneck in a target code path
2. The bottleneck cannot be solved with existing Python packages
3. The user explicitly approves activation
