+### CFG-05 — Hot-reload is rename-safe (coverage: test)
+
+The watcher observes the config file's **directory**, not the file, and
+reacts to any event (modified, created, moved) whose source or
+destination path is the config file. This catches atomic saves — write
+a temp file, then rename it over the target — which replace the inode
+and fire a move/create rather than a modify; watching the file directly
+would go deaf after the first such save. Events for other files in the
+directory, and directory events themselves, are ignored.
