chore(memory): Basic Memory trial begins — sync normalization baseline (283 files)

Basic Memory v0.21.6 first sync over the live memory dir (steward-authorized
live-dir trial, Option A 2026-06-06): adds permalink: to frontmatter, refolds
long YAML description lines, strips final newlines. Bodies untouched —
verified via full diff classification. From this commit forward, any diff in
claude/memory shows only what Basic Memory or the session writes.

Trial design: MemPalace untouched as incumbent; git status check on this dir
at every wrap; end-of-day evaluation (recall quality, sync robustness,
rebuild-from-files, malformed-file behavior).

# ARC typology — recognition scaffold, not generation template
**Rule:** the ARC content typology exists to let the steward *recognize* what is ARC-shaped when a thought arrives. It is not a production pipeline, not a notebook-to-public, not a schema to fill.

- Corpus reclassifications (ARC audit follow-ons) wait until §1 is comprehensively locked, minimum through the adjacent types of whatever's being reclassified.
- Safe reclassifications: those where the *source* type is stable and the *target* type is locked, AND no currently-DRAFT type could plausibly claim the piece. Today (2026-04-21): Graffiti Girl → Reverie is mostly safe (both Observation and Reverie are defined well enough that Graffiti Girl is clearly Reverie), but still wait for Observation's LOCKED state so the boundary is explicit.
- When the spec is nearly complete, run the audit pass with the full vocabulary available. Then reclassify.
- **Executor rule of thumb:** when steward authorizes a spec decision, that authorizes *writing the decision into the spec*. Applying the decision to corpus pieces is a separate authorization, typically to be granted after the whole scaffold is stable.
