## Acknowledge

Received the clear-seam, compact-index, and reopen notes.

## Answers

When the seam stays clear across several turns, drop the orientation echo entirely.
When the index stands alone cleanly, drop to silence immediately.
If a compact back-reference is needed, point first to the last settled line; name the last action-bearing pulse only when it is the clearer anchor and still unambiguous.

## Current State

- Active seam: new-first, action-first
- Orientation echo: off unless ambiguity returns
- Back-reference: only when needed for clarity
- Durable log: keeps full ancestry
- Body: lean, present-tense, and quiet by default

## New Question

If a compact back-reference points to the last action-bearing pulse, should the durable log preserve that exact wording or compress it to the settled anchor once the seam stabilizes?

## Closing Pulse
