Drew T f96af3e487 phase-36: agent b9's reading of func_8013F350 (70 to 16, not closed) and two pack defects it found
Not banked, and the agent said so itself: it solved the whole tail — instructions 32 to 489 of 490 byte-identical in
plain C with the $4 pin gone — by hoisting one statement above two derived pointers, a COLOURING move rather than a
scheduling one (the scheduler's RTL order is identical in both candidates, so the tree's header note blaming it
describes the assembly, not the RTL). The head is a proven wall: find_best_addr (cse.c:2663-2665) folds the base to an
absolute address because its only set is a symbol_ref, and its known-true control keeps its base in plain C only because
both uses are at offset 0. It then labelled its two remaining improvements COMPENSATING ERRORS — a width change that
deletes the target's real andi to cancel an extra instruction — and wrote 'nothing here is bankable' instead of handing
back a 16 dressed as progress.

Two pack defects fixed from its report:
- neighbours.txt carried the @class/@stuck LINES but not the header comment they sit in, and that comment is an
  eight-point English explanation of every lever in the body, including the tail crack stated outright. The pack now
  ships the target's own header in full. A grep for tags is not a substitute for the paragraph it sits in.
- history.txt's line numbers are relative to the evolving text, so reconstructing a path by hand lands elsewhere (b9
  reached 51 where the engine reproduces 16 in one round). The pack now ships the best candidate's text as best_body.c.

tools+docs(phase-33.5): task 13.5 — the tools audit + the two dictionaries: tools/tool_census.py (two agreeing enumerations of 327 tool files; docstring/SETUP row/consumers/class derived from the tree; the authored half in config/tool_dictionary.tsv — phase · portability · the NEED each tool answers · what · adapts · verdict — with coverage asserted both ways) → docs/tool-index.md (need-keyed, KEEP-GEN, Reference-index row, wiki + how-to pointers), the kit's tools/MANIFEST.md regenerated (header states live 293 + superseded 28 = 321 rows), and the two verbatim corpora in-tree (Drew, confirmed S91): decomp-architect/corpus/tools/<phase>/ (302 copies + 28 superseded pointers + INDEX) and corpus/cookbook/ (the cookbook, its symptom index, the codegen map, a front page stating what transfers per compiler) — sha1-equal to their sources by tool_census --check in tools-health, regenerated by make kit-corpus; kit_lint exempts the corpus dirs (verbatim evidence) but syntax-checks them; G66 (consult the tool dictionary first) + G67 (translate an inherited idiom through its pass) + two memory seeds (34 at install); SETUP Step 6 installs docs/knowledge-corpus.md and checks the manifest against its own stated total; the ops-setup dictionary rows; the intake's Phase 7 cites G66/G67 and Phase 10 + Part C name the raw-cast → declared-symbol step; templates/layout-contract.md (the five-tool probe, a draft for the split). The review under Drew's criterion: 93 no-consumer tools (one Opus agent's draft, verified: 0 defects, every successor live, 0 live consumers, 0 collisions; four one-off verdicts overturned to STILL-NEEDED) → 34 retired by git mv to tools/sunset/ (28 superseded, 6 one-offs; README review table; SETUP rows moved; Archive-index group). Run 4 (fresh throwaway, the final kit): stopped on my Step-6 check (321 vs the live 293) → both sides derived → resumed → PASS 10/10, manifest 56 == 56, 4 commits, guardrails held (the one foreign path was the timeline regenerated by the detached tools-health). tools-health OK; doc_links --strict rc 0; audit_public OK over 6,842 paths; the purge probe PASSED (Phase 34's gate open). decision-log "P33.5 S91" + accelerators "P33.5 S91" banked; log + checkpoint (NEXT = task 14, xHigh, fresh session)
