Notes for scholars
Canonical entries use dash-named directories; space/apostrophe variants are browse-tool test copies and are not linked here. Turn counts and models are as rendered in each log’s header. Run settings, technical traces, and forensic timestamps (where available) will be linked from each conversation in due course. We keep spectacle at the door; honesty is welcome inside.
