## Nightly Digestion — OP_11 (Incremental)

### STORE
- Reviewed current manager long-term memory, recent digestion history, `shared/PROJECT_STATUS.md`, and cross-workspace memory/doc timestamps.
- Confirmed no new substantive agent-workspace activity since the Mar 29 digestion pass; no new technical/project facts required promotion tonight.
- Preserved the only meaningful lesson from the Mar 1–12 idle run by compressing those notes into `memory/archive/2026-03-01_to_2026-03-12_idle-digestion.md`.

### DISCARD
- Pruned twelve stale manager daily notes past retention threshold by archiving and removing `2026-03-01.md` through `2026-03-12.md`.
- Confirmed those files were repetitive idle-period digestion logs and did not merit separate active-memory retention.
- No contradictions found in active manager memory during this pass.

### SORT
- Kept the March 1–12 compression at the archive level because it is historical operational context, not company doctrine.
- Left project facts in `MEMORY.md` and `shared/PROJECT_STATUS.md` at the correct abstraction level.

### REPAIR
- Refreshed `shared/PROJECT_STATUS.md` timestamp for the current digestion cycle.
- Spot-checked current operational surfaces: manager/shared docs and recent memory files remain internally consistent with the presently quiet HQ state.
- No new broken path references were introduced in the reviewed files.

### EVOLVE
- The idle-noise pattern remains real: long stretches of nightly digestion still create low-value repetition when no work changed.
- Existing amendment proposal stands: add an OP_11 idle-mode rule to reduce cadence during 7+ day no-change windows. This remains a proposal only and needs CEO approval before protocol change.

### SELF-DOCUMENT
- Added this digestion note.
- No changes needed tonight to Manager `MEMORY.md`, `SOUL.md`, `IDENTITY.md`, `AGENTS.md`, or `TOOLS.md`.
