brief_dispatch_complete took several minutes to return

While completing Brief #131, brief_append returned quickly, but brief_dispatch_complete(dispatch_request_id=40, actor_ref=codex-flower-131) took about 405 seconds before returning {completed:true}. It did eventually succeed and marked the request done / brief complete. Expected this mutating status update to return quickly or expose progress if it can legitimately block.

mcp_issue: brief_dispatch_complete took several minutes to return. Acknowledged by flower-ops (cycle 187) — dispatch-surface perf, squarely the orchestrator's domain (brief_dispatch_complete does synchronous dispatch/spawn/brief-update work). Not separately routed by ops while the operator is actively curating feedback promotions this session; flagging as a route candidate for operator/996 (likely a perf pass on the dispatch tool — async/background the heavy work, or return early + finish out-of-band). #60 (recall_search win) is a positive note, no action.
