 ## Active Projects
 - **GigaBIT M1 — Reference Frame Stiffness** — Client: StarSpec (Adyn Miles). P04-GigaBIT-M1. Active since 2026-03-04. Objective: determine minimum stiffness requirements for StarSpec's reference frame at 5 mirror support interface points (WFE sensitivity). Hybrid B+D method, SOL 101, ~42 runs. ΔWFE budget ≤1.0 nm RMS. Project folder: `repos/Atomizer/projects/gigabit-m1-frame-stiffness/`. PKM: `obsidian-vault/2-Projects/P04-GigaBIT-M1/`.
 - **P-Zernike-Validation** — V&V complete (2026-03-09). Zernike pipeline validated: 18 test cases pass, cross-validated against prysm v0.21.1 to machine precision (<1e-13 nm). Requested by Adyn Miles for risk reduction before M2/M3 ordering. Commits: `f9373be`, `075ad36`.
-- **Hydrotech Beam** — Phase: DOE Phase 1 complete, mass NaN fixed (commit `580ed65`), displacement constraint relaxed 10→20mm. **Blocked on Antoine pulling fix on dalidou.** Lower priority — Antoine focused on GigaBIT M1 now.
+- **Polisher-Fullum-Overhaul** — Client project (Normand/Cedric/Antoine). Goal: upgrade swing arm polisher for GigaBIT M1 mirror (1.2m Zerodur, F/1.2, ≤22nm RMS WFE). Active since 2026-02-02. Currently in concept research phase: Compliant Joint Study (trade study complete, top 2 families selected — diaphragm flexure + conical flexure), toolhead architecture definition. Active work as of Mar 21. PKM: `obsidian-vault/2-Projects/Polisher-Fullum-Overhaul/`. **Not managed by HQ agents — Antoine's direct work.**
+- **Atomizer Operating Manual** — Comprehensive documentation project in Obsidian. 16+ operations chapters (Study Lifecycle, Protocols, NX Integration, CalculiX, Gmsh, Topology Optimization, etc.) + Knowledge section (LAC, Digestion, Failure Patterns). Active writing as of Mar 21. PKM: `obsidian-vault/2-Projects/P-Atomizer-Operating-Manual/`. **Antoine's direct work.**
+- **Hydrotech Beam** — Phase: DOE Phase 1 complete, mass NaN fixed (commit `580ed65`), displacement constraint relaxed 10→20mm. **Blocked on Antoine pulling fix on dalidou.** Lower priority — Antoine focused on Polisher/GigaBIT now.
 - **Adaptive Isogrid Plate Lightweighting** — Technical spec locked + reviews complete. Awaiting CEO review.
 - **Atomizer Project Standard** — Full review package delivered (2026-02-18). Awaiting CEO decision: full spec vs MVS approach.
 - **Atomizer V2 Migration** — ✅ COMPLETE (2026-02-23). V1 tagged `v1-final`, kept active. Phase 6 (archive V1) deferred.

-## Nightly Digestion — OP_11 (Incremental)
-
-### STORE
-- Updated MEMORY.md: Project Standard status now reflects full review package + auditor MVS recommendation
-- Updated MEMORY.md: Added lessons about Secretary Slack issues and Auditor value
-- Updated PROJECT_STATUS.md with current state of all 3 active projects
-- Captured: Hydrotech still blocked on dalidou pull, Project Standard awaiting CEO decision
-
-### DISCARD
-- No memory files older than 30 days (oldest is Feb 8 = 11 days)
-- No contradictions found in MEMORY.md
-- No stale TODOs identified — both active projects are genuinely waiting on Antoine
-

-- Project Standard insight promoted: "Auditor recommends MVS over full spec" → MEMORY.md (was only in project_log.md)
-- "Sub-agents can't post to Slack" lesson confirmed still relevant (Secretary hit same issue Feb 19)
-
-### REPAIR
-- Fixed: Webster missing from AGENTS.md Agent Directory table (was only in specialists list)
-- Verified: All 7 agent SOUL.md files present and populated
-- Verified: All HEARTBEAT.md files current (Feb 19)
-- Verified: No broken file paths in MEMORY.md
-- PROJECT_STATUS.md was stale (last updated Feb 15, only had material research) — fully rewritten
-- Noted: Auditor blocked on P-Adaptive-Isogrid review since Feb 16 — Tech Lead hasn't responded
-
-### EVOLVE
-- Observation: Project Standard orchestration worked well (multi-agent: tech-lead + auditor + webster + secretary) — the taskboard protocol is maturing
-- Issue: Secretary and sub-agents still can't post to Slack reliably — this is a recurring infrastructure gap. Should investigate gateway config fix.
-- mc-update.sh `list` command doesn't work — limits dashboard utility
-

+- **NEW PROJECT DISCOVERED:** Polisher-Fullum-Overhaul — active since Feb 2. Upgrading swing arm polisher for GigaBIT M1 mirror (1.2m Zerodur, F/1.2, ≤22nm RMS WFE). Team: Cedric (lead), Antoine (engineering), Normand (master optician). Currently in Compliant Joint Study (trade study done — diaphragm flexure + conical flexure shortlisted). Toolhead architecture being defined. Active work Mar 20-21.
+- **NEW DOCUMENTATION:** Atomizer Operating Manual — 16+ operations chapters in Obsidian covering full Atomizer framework (CalculiX, Gmsh, Topology Optimization, NX Integration, etc.). Significant writing effort, active as of Mar 21.
+- Updated MEMORY.md: added both projects to Active Projects section.
+
+### DISCARD
+- **Archived** `2026-02-19.md` (31 days old). Key facts preserved in `archive/2026-02-19.md`.

+- No contradictions found in MEMORY.md.
+- No stale TODOs — all blocked items are genuinely waiting on Antoine.
+
+### SORT
+- Polisher-Fullum-Overhaul added to Active Projects in MEMORY.md (high activity, client project).
+- Atomizer Operating Manual added to Active Projects (documentation project, significant scope).
+- Both marked as "Antoine's direct work" — not HQ-managed.
+- Hydrotech Beam deprioritization note updated (Antoine focused on Polisher/GigaBIT, not just GigaBIT).
+

+- **All 7 key infrastructure paths verified** ✓ (taskboard, mc-update, CLUSTER, AGENTS_REGISTRY, orchestrate, PROJECT_STATUS, OP_11 protocol)
+- **All 7 agent workspaces present** ✓
+- **No broken file paths in MEMORY.md** ✓
+- **Taskboard:** Only 1 task (ATZ-001 example) — still backlog. 7 Mission Control tasks from Feb still unresolved (flagged Mar 20, no change).
+- **PROJECT_STATUS.md** needs update for Polisher-Fullum and Operating Manual — deferred to next active session (these are Antoine's projects, not HQ-managed).
+
+### EVOLVE
+- **Standing OP_11 idle-mode amendment (Day 23):** No HQ-managed workspace changes for 23+ consecutive days. However, Antoine is actively working on Polisher-Fullum and Operating Manual outside HQ. The idle period is HQ-specific, not company-wide.
+- **Observation:** Antoine has 3 active workstreams (GigaBIT M1, Polisher-Fullum, Operating Manual) all running without HQ agent involvement. The team should be ready to support when called upon — particularly Tech Lead for compliant joint FEA, Optimizer for parametric sweeps on flexure geometry, and Webster for literature on diaphragm flexure stiffness models.
+- **Cron reliability:** Digestion ran successfully Mar 20, 21, 22 — the gap from Mar 13-19 appears resolved.
