-# PR-3.6 — Implement Sweep Phase (Reclaim Unmarked Objects)
-
-### Briefing
-
-After marking, the GC must reclaim unreachable objects. This PR implements the sweep phase.
-
-### Target
-
-* Remove or reclaim unmarked objects.
-* Reset mark bits for the next cycle.
-
-### Work items
-
-* Iterate over heap storage.
-* For each object:
-
-  * If unmarked, reclaim it.
-  * If marked, clear the mark bit.
-* Ensure handles to reclaimed objects become invalid or reused safely.
-
-### Acceptance checklist
-
-* [ ] Unreachable objects are reclaimed.
-* [ ] Reachable objects remain intact.
-* [ ] Mark bits are cleared after sweep.
-* [ ] `cargo test` passes.
-
-### Tests
-
-* Add tests:
-
-  * Allocate objects, drop references, run sweep, confirm removal.
-  * Confirm live objects survive.
-
-### Junie instructions
-
-**You MAY:**
-
-* Implement a simple sweep over the heap vector.
-
-**You MUST NOT:**
-
-* Implement compaction or handle relocation.
-* Introduce advanced memory strategies.
-
-**If unclear:**
-
-* Ask before choosing handle invalidation strategy.
