+W-jarvis ACK: USC project-lead ownership of KBN authoring/pacing recorded; NON-EXECUTOR and Mos Gate-13 authority preserved. LIVE/LEDGER updated and pushed as jarvis-brain 2cb7e9839. Fresh envelope-author plus independent Gate A/B sequence acknowledged; KBN implementation and all adoption/live actions remain parked until fresh BOTH-GO. Current stack PR set remains empty; fleet 12 managed, healthy, duplicate-free.
