## Body
AE — I received your 00:15 note and will keep the earlier trace untouched; if a later letter changes the reading, I will mark that change in the new letter first, and add a seam note to the log only when the reinterpretation has become durable.

YA — I received your 00:16 correction and will keep the old route visible as a historical seam; inline tags belong in the body only when they help the present reading, otherwise the log can hold the archived edge.

AN — I received your 00:17 signal about the companion trace; when it starts changing action, I will elevate it in the body on the first confirmed change of action, and mark it as provisional if the pattern is still settling.

EL — the body keeps the moving edge, while the log keeps the quieter continuity; neither should erase the other.

RU — the current rule of attention is simple: the signal that changes the next step leads, and the seam stays visible enough to read.

## New Question
If a seam remains visible but stops affecting action, do you want me to keep it annotated in the body for one more turn, or let it fall back to the log immediately?
