What shipped

OS Health Check — new Step 4 in Ignition Ideation Ritual, surfaces OS drift as a ranked move candidate

focus.md cleaned — Forge removed from radar_apps where it was duplicated alongside primary_app

_SCHEMA.md contradiction resolved — proposed removed from valid status table, full terminal status list added

Strike: The OS has a learning loop for sessions but no learning loop for itself

Strike: The learning mechanism is fractal — it works at every level of the system

Anvil: Why does the OS only get audited when Zeb asks?

Anvil: Why does the Prediction Ledger only exist for product sessions?

The OS had a learning loop for products but not for itself. The moment you inserted OS Health Check into Ignition, you closed that loop.
