The steward's scope point on yesterday's discharge, taken. Renaming the key closed
one trigger; the next will need the same hand-rename by whoever is in session. If
census 01 found decay is how gates fail here, a schema that cannot express "answered"
is what produces the decay, and renaming keys one at a time is living with it.
Filed while there is exactly ONE instance and three tracked deferrals remain. The
window matters: once a second is renamed by habit the convention is established and
the schema question stops being asked. Filed, not built — that was the direction.
Carries a sharper half the rename surfaced: resolution must be unsatisfiable without
a pointer, so a discharge that records THAT a gate closed but not WHAT closed it
becomes impossible to express rather than merely discouraged. Plus two conditions on
the recommendation (resolved blocks stay counted as a closed ledger; a dangling
pointer is a register-integrity defect) and three required controls.
Also writes the missing reverse pointer into FOOL-BONES §6. The discharge block
already pointed at the derivation record and 06b3d8b's message named it; the record
did not point back. Written at both ends now — one direction only is how a successor
learns a gate was closed but never why.

Executes the standing run-once authorization filed in PENDING.md, against
FOOL-SEED-RULE.md at d6377af572 — filed and
pushed before the beacon timestamp, and clean in the working tree at the
moment of execution.
Pulse chain 2 / index 1917365, timeStamp 2026-08-25T12:00:00.000Z, fetched
by curl at ~12:38Z. outputValue recorded before anything ran, and served
UPPERCASE as the historical dry run predicted; passed to derive_fool.py
exactly as served, so the single normalization point at line 79 did the
lowering. No wrapper, shell step or hand edit touched it.

Ranges were filed 2026-08-22, before the value was knowable; the axis
permutation came entirely from the entropy component. The draw is entropy,
not judgement, and the record says so where it can be read backwards.
Verified at execution rather than relayed: selftest 16/16 with both positive
controls and the negative control; provenance SHA re-derived from git; seed
recomputed independently of derive(); passed value asserted byte-equal to the
served JSON field; epoch-ms verified against the named instant.
Ran ONCE. No retry, no second pulse, no regeneration. Owed and deliberately
not done here, so no edit touches the rule: the abandonment -> retirement
harmonization, and §5's stale "12 checks" (the selftest now runs 16).
