Per-type ranking was still starving later types: when a p05 query
matched a 'knowledge' memory best but 'project' came first in the
type order, the project-type candidates filled the budget before
the knowledge-type pool was even ranked.
Collect all candidates into a single pool, dedupe by id, then
rank the whole pool once against the query before walking the
flat budget. Python's stable sort preserves insertion order (which
still reflects the caller's memory_types order) as a natural
tiebreaker when scores are equal.
Regression surfaced by the retrieval eval harness:
p05-vendor-signal still missing 'Zygo' after 5aeeb1c — the vendor
memory was type=knowledge but never reached the ranker because
type=project consumed the budget first.

Operations
scripts/atocore_client.pyprovides a live API client for project refresh, project-state inspection, and retrieval-quality audits.docs/operations.mdcaptures the current operational priority order: retrieval quality, Wave 2 trusted-operational ingestion, AtoDrive scoping, and restore validation.
