Christopher Williams 3519afe441 phase11: tools/sf3_free + cookbook 179-180 — the EIGHTH rule defect, and the token table
179: a rule every worker must follow belongs in a TRACKED tool, not a copied script. The registry
free-check lived in a worker's staging dir and the orchestrator told everyone to copy it. It was
WRONG -- it reported TAKEN if ANY ledger row for the address was not 'released', so a row that was
wip and later released stayed blocked FOREVER. Worker E found it and measured 13 released rows
reading as taken, several of them the cheapest rows left, and the same stale pattern existed for
workers A and D too. Fixed and promoted to tools/sf3_free (tracked, docstring explains the bug).
A copied script cannot be fixed for the people who already copied it.

180: worker E's maspsx=epilogue token table, MEASURED not inferred -- 5 rows REQUIRED, 3 HARMFUL
or NO-OP, 2 HARMFUL-but-unmatched. Three of E's fourteen claims sit on that list and TWO would
have failed outright if the token had been applied by shape. The cheap read: '4 bytes SHORT with
the token on' means the token was unnecessary.
