session 2026-07-28: correct fabricated timestamps + rename evening->early-afternoon

Steward caught that the session was filed 'evening' at 13:29. Root cause is
larger than the label: every ISO timestamp in today's Symmetria ledger was
inferred from narrative position, never read from date(1). 14:10 was 40min in
the future; the prior session's 13:30/13:50 entries were written at mtime
11:35. Values annotated rather than silently corrected (unrecoverable); order
remains reliable. Skill defect harvested: symmetria §4 specifies the timestamp
FORMAT and not its SOURCE.

Also: chamber-grounding directive (constitution+charter+runbook) recorded as
standing feedback; honest census of where the Chamber vision actually lives
(seven sources, not one).
