Progress update, 11 Aug 2026

Updates are bullet-point summaries generated with AI from my commits and build notes, then checked by me. Project articles and learning notes are written by me.

Dry runs didn’t consume a section and didn’t write a run log, so twenty test runs measured one section and kept nothing. Dry runs now write to a gitignored harvest folder, and a driver walks the real selection order.
First baseline over 22 runs: 2 published, 5 died before review. Claude passed 47% and Codex 18%, and neither ever rejected outright. Most objections were claims the source doesn’t support.
Raised the minimum source section from 200 to 400 words. Eligible sections fell from 1,413 to 438, and the runway from about 3.9 years to 1.2.
