…rchive/ The Cortex is no longer a task/ruling state machine. Each science project now has one file, projects/<key>.md, holding `## Now` (where the human is, what next), `## Runs` (jobs on the cluster, open | running) and `## Log` (dated entries newest-first: run | result | lesson | note). Nothing in a ledger is inferred from results: the script records cluster facts, and a result or lesson is written only in the human's words. - scripts/cortex.py: check · new · run · running · done · log · now · issue · retire, over the new schema; move/rule/gates are gone. - projects/: every task, run, ruling and note of 2026-08/09 migrated into its project's log in the words already on file; tasks/, rulings/ and batches/ moved under archive/, frozen. - scripts/ledger_merge.py: ledger = projects/, checkin.yaml, the two pages; any change under archive/ is code. - workflows watch projects/ and archive/; README is one opening paragraph plus the dashboard pointer; AGENTS.md, REFERENCE.md rewritten; schema decision 60 records why. - tests: new skeleton fixture (four rows, three ledgers) and contract tests for every verb and every check rule.

dashboard_refresh.yml rendered this branch with PyAutoBrain main, whose conductor predates the schema, and failed. It now prefers the PyAutoBrain branch of the same name when one exists, the mirror of what the Brain's tests.yml does for the Cortex. Also `cortex.py link <project> <ref>`, the one header edit there is, so an issue ref enters a ledger through the script rather than by hand.

One long-lived issue per active project, with the ledger block at the top and the detail below: subhalo_validation#2, ep_toy_gaussian#1, slope_hierarchy_scale#2, autolens_inference#4 in the projects' own repos; PyAutoCortex#34/#35/#36 for analytic_gaussian, euclid_dr1_prelim and ic50_workspace, which have no PyAutoLabs remote. Board re-rendered. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_011UbmGoiKHHsNmMWp9GH4se

What
The Cortex is no longer a task/ruling state machine. Each science project has one file,
projects/<key>.md:## Now— two or three lines the human rewrites: what is running, what next.## Runs— jobs on the cluster right now,open|running. A finished run leaves the list and becomes a log entry.## Log— dated entries newest-first, kindrun | result | lesson | note. Nothing is ever done; the board shows the last five.Nothing in a ledger is inferred from results.
