Frank a5fe045b58 docs(vault): one fact, one owner — repair the doubled pages, single-source the facts

Structural repair:
- 13 pages were the same document twice (each exactly 2x its HEAD size),
  a second frontmatter block whose closing fence had been glued onto a body
  line by a frontmatter rewrite that re-read its own output. Un-doubled by
  cutting at the second frontmatter and keeping the copy whose body is a
  superset; the orphan census reports 0 lost tokens against HEAD.
- log.md: one entry per date, bare `## YYYY-MM-DD` headings, newest first —
  66 dated headings merged into 34, titles demoted to bold leads, every
  content line verified present. The file had been descending at the head
  and ascending at the tail.

Ownership moves:
- New `LLM/frank-medium.md` is the locator for the retired Dankserver
  endpoint: era windows quoted from each era page's own banner, no numbers
  restated, and the two unresolved date conflicts recorded instead of
  silently resolved. `frank-archon.md` links to it instead of restating the
  pre-rename window.
- The four Pipeline-Parallelism stubs (frontmatter only, no body) are gone;
  `Multi-Node Runtimes.md` owns runtime construction, launch, mixed-vendor
  verdicts and cross-split spec decode, and the four links that pointed at
  the stubs were repointed at it or at the drafter page.
- Authentik's three stub pages fold into `Authentik.md`, with the process
  detail and the outpost reference split out so the parent stays under the
  length hint.

Verified corrections (host census + live probe, 2026-10-19):
- The MXFP4 checkpoint two pages called the "on-disk rollback" is gone:
  /home/dank/models/ holds StillDeadcode, rad and tpl.jinja. Stated once, on
  the era page that owns that payload; the swap page now links to it.
- frank-medium-radiance-mxfp4: the 4.24/7 accept rate belongs to the DFlash2
  arm measured on the FP8 target, not to the MXFP4 era; the 3-family soak run
  census is kept once (155 requests) instead of twice (~120 and 155).
- Fleet shapes re-confirmed against the live endpoints before touching any
  page: 3x200000 fp8 KV, 2x200704, 2x262144.

Index rows are regenerated, not hand-carved. Net -1,849 vault lines.

PICO-8 Asset Standards

Ensure every PICO-8 asset (tileset, spritesheet, character sheet, or asset sheet) is cohesive, production-grade, and ready to drop into a game without rework.

Palette discipline

Use the PICO-8 16-color palette exclusively.
Establish a dominant color family (2–3 related hues) for the main subject.
Reserve accent colors for highlights, danger zones, and focal points only.
Maintain consistent color roles across all assets in a sheet (if shadow is dark blue on one tile, it is dark blue everywhere).

Perspective & lighting

Choose ONE perspective per sheet (top-down, side-view, or isometric) and never mix.
Apply light from a single consistent direction across all tiles and sprites.
Shadows follow the same shape logic on every asset (e.g. all cast shadows point bottom-right).

Detail flow & hierarchy

Start tiles/props from the palette's dominant colors, then add edge highlights and shading.
Keep tile density uniform — avoid one hyper-detailed tile next to empty flat tiles.
Props and decorations should read clearly at 8×8 or 16×16 without zooming.

Sheet organization

Group related assets together (terrain together, props together, characters together).
Leave consistent spacing between assets for clean cropping.
Label sections visually through grouping, not text.

Cohesion checks (before finishing a sheet)

All colors appear in the PICO-8 palette.
Perspective does not flip mid-sheet.
Lighting direction is consistent.
Edge treatment (dither, outline, anti-aliasing style) matches across assets.
No orphan tiles that don't connect to any neighbor.

Common pitfalls

Mixing 8-bit and 16-bit detail levels.
Using outline style on some tiles but not others.
Forgetting the palette constraint — colors outside the 16 PICO-8 colors.
Inconsistent tile edge connections (a grass tile that only connects to one dirt variant).
