Major changes:
- Dashboard: WebSocket-based chat with session management
- Dashboard: New chat components (ChatPane, ChatInput, ModeToggle)
- Dashboard: Enhanced UI with parallel coordinates chart
- MCP Server: New atomizer-tools server for Claude integration
- Extractors: Enhanced Zernike OPD extractor
- Reports: Improved report generator
New studies (configs and scripts only):
- M1 Mirror: Cost reduction campaign studies
- Simple Beam, Simple Bracket, UAV Arm studies
Note: Large iteration data (2_iterations/, best_design_archive/)
excluded via .gitignore - kept on local Gitea only.

Study Interview Mode is now the DEFAULT for all study creation requests.
This intelligent Q&A system guides users through optimization setup with:
- 7-phase interview flow: introspection → objectives → constraints → design_variables → validation → review → complete
- Material-aware validation with 12 materials and fuzzy name matching
- Anti-pattern detection for 12 common mistakes (mass-no-constraint, stress-over-yield, etc.)
- Auto extractor mapping E1-E24 based on goal keywords
- State persistence with JSON serialization and backup rotation
- StudyBlueprint generation with full validation
Triggers: "create a study", "new study", "optimize this", any study creation intent
Skip with: "skip interview", "quick setup", "manual config"
Components:
- StudyInterviewEngine: Main orchestrator
- QuestionEngine: Conditional logic evaluation
- EngineeringValidator: MaterialsDatabase + AntiPatternDetector
- InterviewPresenter: Markdown formatting for Claude
- StudyBlueprint: Validated configuration output
- InterviewState: Persistent state management
All 129 tests passing.

New Tools (tools/):
- analyze_study.py: Generate comprehensive optimization reports
- find_best_iteration.py: Find best iteration folder, optionally copy it
- archive_best_design.py: Archive best design to 3_results/best_design_archive/<timestamp>/
Protocol Updates:
- OP_02_RUN_OPTIMIZATION.md v1.1: Add mandatory archive_best_design step
in Post-Run Actions. This MUST be done after every optimization run.
V14 Updates:
- run_optimization.py: Auto-archive best design at end of optimization
- optimization_config.json: Expand bounds for V14 continuation
- lateral_outer_angle: min 13->11 deg (was at 4.7%)
- lateral_inner_pivot: min 7->5 mm (was at 8.1%)
- lateral_middle_pivot: max 23->27 mm (was at 99.4%)
- whiffle_min: max 60->72 mm (was at 96.3%)
