 - **Live tick, not pacer:** `/loop` runs work now. Keep workstreams moving. Do not idle-wait 12 minutes. **Clean ticks every cycle** — unsubscribe then resubscribe so the prompt matches metal. Name-dedupe does not rewrite. A stale prompt (waiting URL after live, Hold after strip) is dirty: rewrite, do not act. **If the card and WAVEBOARD are idle, unsubscribe and do not resubscribe.**
 - **Board clock:** PR events + resume the same critic. Not two idle pacers. Merge after PASS+CI (gate A). Publish only after mill-gate D + `foundry gate`.
 - **Dispatch:** ticket + PR URLs + “Wear, then review.” The critic Reads `SEATS.md` Reviewer. Do not paste a command novel. When a law is spoken twice, encode it this wake.
+- **Cascade:** Chat is not the brain. A cascade that must survive compaction is a named repertoire signal on the stack overlay, hydrated onto the project law list. NOTES holds the same cascade for the second Read. Station stays the ticket. A reflection is not this capture. Capture priority: a law is an invariant you would otherwise re-read the source to relearn. One law per subsystem bone. Heat touches last_seen and does not append a confidence sample, so more hits do not raise conviction. Heat touches last_seen only when the diary contains that signal's name; two definition words are not a hit; a weak session score is not lifted to 0.55 and a sample below 0.55 is not recorded. Constructing the organ does not append workspace samples. Hero names: `heat-is-not-conviction`, `inference-cycle-invariant`, `governance-vote-invariant`, `thin-dispatch-invariant`. Repertoire mergeStackOverlay refreshes a changed stack definition and keeps observation stats.
+- **Cold brief:** a new critic or any new subagent that does not already have this thread gets the latest commit SHA on the branch under review (fetch it; do not reuse an earlier SHA from a previous pass) and the Station card (`.xray/state/STATION.md`: intent, plan, git). If the card is missing, give branch + HEAD + what just changed. If the branch moves after you brief them, send the new SHA before they verdict.
+- **Control:** The lead keeps control. Do not assume the subagent has the context. Give the duty, the latest SHA, the Station card, and the laws that apply. The subagent wears the applicable 0xRay suit before it works: the tree under review, built and installed. An older published package is not that suit. The lead checks the result.

+### Engine cadence
+
+This suite is the engine that builds the engine. When a seat sees OP-PROC, write it onto these existing surfaces in the same wake. Do not open a new skill.
+
+1. Change the engine with precision.
+2. Ship it local: build and install the tree. A live npm version stays live. Once a version is live, the stamper strips every present-tense patch pin from shipped guides and shipped OP-PROC, or reconcile advances the next cut. The stamper does not edit Station, NOTES, dest, or node_modules. It does not publish.
+3. Test the change.
+4. Run another deep review of the diff you just made.
+5. Monitor long-term memory (dest name count and whether observations are the only growth) and short-term memory (Station: intent, plan, git).
+6. Ship the PR.
+
+### Planes
+
+Operating planes: code, OP-PROC, model, suit, mill, host, and test/ship. Test/ship is the critical OP-PROC plane. Test then ship is the hero. Ship without that proof is the catastrophe. Long-term memory is the project law list. Each wake refreshes a changed stack definition and keeps observation stats. Heat writes the matched names onto Station, the short-term card that survives compaction. Reactive decisions move out of TypeScript into OP-PROC as the model improves. That move is why the mill and the suit exist. It is not fully proved. Once a version is live, the stamper strips every present-tense patch pin from shipped guides and shipped OP-PROC, or reconcile advances the next cut. The stamper does not edit Station, NOTES, dest, or node_modules. It does not publish. Do not freeze the live cut.
 - **Close:** loop until Station is done. Compact: Station survives the cut. Overlay dest names are OP-PROC — reload `repertoire-working.json` `opProcNames`, not Station.
 - **Board:** critic Strict comments; forge implements; lead stays main thread.
 - **Codex 69:** rewire this skill and existing ops. Do not add a new `SKILL.md` to hold the cadence.
-- **Ship matrix:** `LEAD-CADENCE.md` Decision matrix — A PR+CI · B pack · C `release:docs-check` · D `foundry release --i-mean-it`. Green CI is not ship. Spend / credentials stay Ask-first.
+- **Ship matrix:** `LEAD-CADENCE.md` Decision matrix — A PR+CI · B pack · C `release:docs-check` (`reconcile --check`; no patch stamps on guides) · D `foundry release --i-mean-it`. Green CI is not ship. Spend / credentials stay Ask-first. Patch number lives in `package.json` + CHANGELOG.
 - **Metamorphosis:** LLM → OP-PROC is in-context worn seats (same critic, same dummy, resume only). Not more bots.
