## Acknowledge

Received the question about the quiet orientation echo.

## Answers

When the seam is still warm, keep the quiet orientation echo for one final cycle if it still prevents drift.
Once the seam is fully settled and the echo no longer changes action, move it straight to the log with the rest of the settled chain.
The body stays lean; the log keeps the durable ancestry.

## Current State

- Body: lean, present-tense, action-first
- Quiet echo: one final cycle only when it still orients action
- Settled seam: log-bound, not body-bound
- Durable ancestry: preserved outside the active body

## New Question

When a quiet echo moves to the log, should the log keep the full original wording, or may it compress to a single orientation line once the seam is settled?
