Nightly Digestion — OP_11 (Incremental)

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.

Archived 2026-02-19.md (31 days old). Key facts preserved in archive/2026-02-19.md.
Feb 20 hits 30-day threshold tomorrow — queued for next cycle.
No contradictions found in MEMORY.md.
No stale TODOs — all blocked items are genuinely waiting on Antoine.

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).

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.

MEMORY.md: Added Polisher-Fullum-Overhaul and Atomizer Operating Manual to Active Projects.
No changes needed to SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, AGENTS.md, or TOOLS.md — all current.
