Nightly Digestion — OP_11 (Incremental)

Polisher-Fullum progressing: New Implementation docs (Stochastic-Dither-Reference, Claude-Desktop-Instructions, Simulation-Physics-Reference updates) and Compliant Joint Study advancing — conical flexure NX modeling guide, COR analysis + architecture pivot, diaphragm stiffness analysis, dual diaphragm Z-block analysis. Excalidraw concept drawings created. Antoine actively developing toolhead architecture.
Operating Manual: 52 files touched in last 24h (Syncthing sync — likely batch update to Operations chapters and Knowledge section).
No new Antoine corrections to capture. No new HQ-managed project activity.

Archived and removed 2026-02-19.md, 2026-02-20.md, 2026-02-21.md (30-31 days old). Key facts preserved in archive/ summaries.
Feb 22 hits 30-day threshold tomorrow — queued for next cycle.
Feb 26-28 already covered by archive/2026-02-26_to_2026-03-12_idle-period.md — originals can be cleaned when they hit 30 days (Feb 22-25 first).
No contradictions found in MEMORY.md.
No stale TODOs.

Nothing to promote. Polisher-Fullum and Operating Manual remain Antoine's direct work, not HQ-managed.
Polisher project has evolved from "concept research" to active implementation/simulation phase — noted but no MEMORY.md update needed (project description already covers this scope).

All 7 key infrastructure paths verified ✓ (taskboard, mc-update, CLUSTER, AGENTS_REGISTRY, orchestrate, PROJECT_STATUS, OP_11 protocol)
All 6 agent workspaces present ✓
No broken file paths in MEMORY.md ✓
Taskboard: Unchanged — ATZ-001 example only. 7 Mission Control tasks from Feb still unresolved.
PROJECT_STATUS.md: Current as of Mar 22 digestion.

Standing OP_11 idle-mode amendment (Day 24): No HQ-managed workspace changes for 24+ consecutive days. Antoine remains active on his own projects (Polisher-Fullum now in simulation/implementation phase, Operating Manual writing). Team ready to support when called.
Readiness note: Polisher toolhead work (diaphragm flexure stiffness, conical flexure modeling, COR analysis) is exactly the kind of work Tech Lead and Optimizer could support — parametric FEA sweeps, compliance matrix analysis, joint stiffness characterization. If Antoine pulls us in, we're prepared.
Cron reliability: 4 consecutive successful digestions (Mar 20-23). Gap issue from Mar 13-19 appears resolved.

No changes needed to MEMORY.md, SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, AGENTS.md, or TOOLS.md — all current.
