7//   lessons     byxin_lessons               corrections that bind next time, injected before the facts
8//   self-report byxin_history + byxin_affect the brain's state, measured, never a mood
9//   comparator  handler + byxin_nli         citations, numbers, claims checked against what was shown
10//   history     byxin_history               every answered question is an episode with declared provenance (answering_layer)
11//   shared brain bridge.py hub             every session in one project reads what the others did, and who is editing what

14// WHICH BRAIN. A project that is itself a ByxIn tree is served by its own brain (its record, its lessons, its loop
15// lock); any other project by the brain vendored here, its record kept per project outside this folder. One brain
16// per project: a second one beside a live loop would share its engine and spoil its measurements.
