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).

name: Chamber-library cruft restoration project — 186 files need work, 62 are load-bearing voices
description: 47% of the chamber (186/399 .md files) carries cruft from EPUB/HTML conversion residue. 124 are CLEANUP (strip_cruft handles), 62 are severe RECONVERT (need source EPUB + repair pipeline). Load-bearing voices in the severe bucket: Bachelard ×3, Arendt ×3, Adorno, Heidegger, Plato, Marcus Aurelius, Alexander, Lévi-Strauss. Precondition for "discourse with the library" — the steward's actual aim.

This is a multi-day substrate restoration project. **15–35 hours of focused work** across the two phases, plus verification and re-mining. Per the chamber-Alexandrian-foundation memo: this is per-file craft, not batch processing; the quality bar applies equally to first and last voices admitted. *Building what you will not need to rebuild.*
The aim is not "throughput" — it's a substrate the steward can trust enough to talk *with*, not just search through.
