[FIX] Repair 39 files' frontmatter — including 3 I damaged an hour earlier

The 2026-06-06 normalization sweep (3f9a89b, 283 files) prepended a stray permalink-only frontmatter block to 39 memory files, 20 of them session wrap records. Any real frontmatter parser reads the FIRST block, gets `permalink` alone, and never sees name/description/type. The sharp case: `strip_frontmatter` exists specifically to stop thread extraction from matching inside `description:` — its docstring says so. On those 20 wrap records it strips the stray block and hands the real frontmatter back AS BODY, producing exactly the condition it was written to prevent. Repair merges permalink into the real block and drops the duplicate. Nothing retyped: frontmatter and body are carried as slices, body md5 asserted unchanged. TWO DEFECTS OF MY OWN, both found only after claiming success: 1. THREE FILES DAMAGED BY THIS SESSION'S OWN STAMPING COMMIT (ef6fa94). That script located frontmatter with a non-greedy `^---\n.*?\n---\n`, which on a stray-block file matches the STRAY block — so it appended superseded_by to the wrong block and orphaned the real frontmatter into the body. That is the same non-greedy-first-block blindness diagnosed in strip_frontmatter one hour earlier, reproduced in the tool written to clean up after it. And the post-stamp check reported "malformed: none" because it asked "does the file start with frontmatter then a banner" — true for all three — while the claim was "the stamp preserved the record's metadata". The control's subject was adjacent to the claim's, for the sixth time today and the first time in my own verification. Repaired, verified against the pre-stamp file from git: no key lost, prose preserved. 2. REPAIRING 20 APRIL-MAY WRAP RECORDS MOVED THEIR MTIMES TO TODAY, and `sec_pause` picked "newest wrap" by mtime — so the digest promoted an April session to `Last wrap` and lost both the pulling thread and the open question. Caught by the DEGRADED section, which is the honest-degradation mechanism doing its job. `sec_pause` now selects by git add-time, like `wrap_events`. Residual stated in the comment: add-time lags the wrap by hours, so `Last wrap` is an upper bound — wrong by hours where mtime was wrong by months. Verified after: 0 two-block patterns, 0 orphaned frontmatter, 16 stamps intact with name: present, 381 pointers resolve, 0 dead, selftest PASS, drift clean, digest reports 0 degraded sections and the correct last wrap. Not defects: context-discipline.md and relational-gap-analysis.md use the `title:`/`type: note` convention and have no `name:` — flagged by my check, correct as they stand.

 name: Canonical workstream trackers must be read at session start, not just session memories
 description: Surfaced 2026-04-26 after three consecutive sessions generated substantial architectural work as if from a clean slate, without referencing project-arc-rework.md (the canonical ARC workstream tracker). The /wake-up procedure restored yesterday's session memory + ledger but did not pull from canonical workstream files. Result: re-litigation of settled decisions, sibling project files instead of integrations, missed load-bearing context. Fix names what to read at every session opening that touches ARC (and structurally similar workstreams).

 description: Surfaced 2026-04-26 evening end-of-session. MemPalace had the content that would have prevented today's structural drift; the failure was retrieval discipline, not storage. Protocol step 2 ("BEFORE RESPONDING about any person, project, or past event: call kg_query or search FIRST") is rarely honored mid-session. Discipline parallel to canonical-workstream-tracker — same shape (write to substrate, fail to read before producing), different temporal scale (mid-session, not just at boundaries).

 **Pattern caught**: when adding new CSS rules in a focused work session, I default to dropping them in the most recently-touched SCSS file (proximity bias) rather than the file scoped to their concern. Across one day's evening work I added four unrelated apparatus blocks (preface, section-break, sequence-marker, sequence-index) all to `_sidenotes.scss` — whose own header comment declared its scope as **§XII Sidenotes + §XII.b Register Markers**.

 Before any bulk-scaffold action — full file rewrites, multi-page schema dumps, large config commits, sweeping multi-edit changes — apply the **"would Alexander do it like this?"** test. If the action involves declaring an entire structure in one stroke, pause: that is *making*, not *generating*. The cramped will of the maker (Ch 9, *Flower and Seed*). The remedy is *"one pattern at a time"* — Ch 20 of *Timeless Way of Building*: *"Each step brings just one pattern to life.

Steward then directed return to Vico §240 / Harrison Ch 5 to register the full lex-chain (gathering → solemnization of wills → reading → authority/auctores → lexification → resistance to dislexification) — I had been holding only the gathering-sense. Pulling thread: the About-pages restructure under today's locating, awaiting fresh-morning eyes on Path 1 (lex alongside colophon) vs Path 2 (lex as expansion of colophon).

 description: A long substantive day that pivoted around a structural drift surfacing. Morning + afternoon: wake into yesterday's pulling thread (Path 1 vs Path 2), chamber-library walk, cluster scaffolds for six remaining clusters, About-pages "decision frame" and Chamber rewrite frame — all generated as if architectural ground were open when most was already settled. Steward surfaced the umbrella pattern: I had been working without project-arc-rework.md (the canonical ARC workstream tracker) for four consecutive sessions. Saved discipline-feedback durably; consolidated 04-23 evening / 04-24 / 04-25 / 04-26 into the tracker; synthesized morning ideas through prior decisions; LOCKED three steward decisions (Path 1 enfilade items, Adsum-and-threshold-hic as two distinct texts, integrate sibling files); 8-door enfilade locked; safety-committed dotfiles (e9e772d); dispatched Phase 0 audit; executed cleanup (commit 5c059d8 on origin/main + github-backup, 118 files +42/−2540); vignette engine LOCKED as dialogue (Claude Code + jurist) not script after steward's evening proposal; tomorrow's plan drafted around naming session first. Pulling thread: tomorrow's naming session (lex/Framework/Attention/per-cluster/page-headings) — settles what publishes this week.

Morning naming session locked the 8-door slate (Hearth · AldineXXI · Vignette · Attention · Chamber · Tools · Now + Bio quiet link) with Harrison Ch 3 *What Is a House?* providing the laral frame.

Branch B Step 1.5 pivoted from declared to emergent for about-enfilade after steward's *"would Alexander do it like this?"* caught my bulk-rewrite instinct — pages declare themselves; navigation gathers via getMatches+getMetadata (no compile-cycle). Six pages flagged + hardcoded enfilades removed + retirement archives + chamber stub authored + about-page.html template + breadcrumb consistency. Site live and deployed. Pulling thread: the composition-in-dialogue trio — Hearth landing prose, About *Hic* prose, About *Adsum* prose — all explicitly steward-led per *"Hearth and the about hic and adsum I will want to compose in dialogue as ever"*.

Caught my own previous-night false-reassurance about ingestion (vault frozen 27 days). EVENING — composition arc — Death of a Hero footnote apparatus realignment (3 Pandoc footnotes → none were footnotes per §VII; [^1] → §XII sidenote, [^2][^3] → §VII.b Sources, em-dash convention orphaned a 2-entry list and steward caught it); chamber/index.md rewritten end-to-end as proper about-enfilade door (4-doc thinking-folder substrate + Hearth register-anchor + composition-in-dialogue with steward); 4 polish fixes (publication name italicized + restructured, sidenote collision, mobile footer centring, hr before reading compass). Build-pipeline gotcha caught: SCSS partial edits don't trigger Hakyll recompile (only tracks `scss/main.scss`); silent stale-CSS deploy until I checked. **Pulling thread**: paragraph-with-sidenote layout — `:has()` fix solved collision but introduced body-column whitespace exactly as the original SCSS comment had warned against; third-path solution deferred to tomorrow. Steward deferred. **Question for next-Claude**: is there a CSS-only third path between absolute-position (collision risk) and grid (whitespace risk) for paragraph-with-sidenote, or does the right solution require shaping content rather than CSS? Multiple drift-pattern-recurrences: *defended-the-spec-against-the-eye* (em-dash on 2-entry list); *stale-memory-not-actively-applied* (publication-name italics rule available, not retrieved pre-draft); *traded-off-without-flagging-the-trade* (whitespace cost shipped without surfacing the trade); *structural-counter-as-health-signal-without-functional-validation* recurring twice today (morning: mempalace counter; evening: build-pipeline counter).

 name: Rules-and-poetic duality — rule as mechanism, metaphor as mnemonic for dwelling in constraint
 description: Steward's articulated working method: rules serve skills/agents (who serve him, mutually); poetic/metaphoric layer functions as mnemonic device so one dwells in the constraint and finds freedom *through* it, not *from* it. Held close for ARC style-guide gather; applies regardless of domain (viola, ARC, fathering, L2).

 name: Life as pilgrimage — a long-held framing the steward holds
 description: 2026-04-29. Steward verbatim during the Hic+Adsum composition: "I have long considered life to be a pilgrimage." This is the substrate behind the *Pilgrim* tagline at /bio/ on ARC. Not decorative; structural. Distributes across three registers in the threshold composition: Hic (place names itself), Adsum's *here* (present location in a longer journey), Bio's *Pilgrim* (journey-shape).
