applied, at the human's "apply and derive": 5 stale passages rewritten (Overview framing, index intro, Lens callout answered, LATCH front-door column, pattern-page build record compressed to a dated list); Leiden→Louvain fixed in Front Door Pattern Language; 7 cross-references wired (Working Heuristics→Do It Once + Lands vs Lives, VRDK→Agent-Maintained Wiki, Borges→Agent Memory, Match Process Weight→Scott, Shipper→Infinite Backlog, AIDB→Agent Autonomy Spectrum); aliases "requisite variety" added to Communication and Control Are Intertwined; T2 given the Location-lens evidence. Derived: the build now detects unlinked mentions (a page naming another page's title/alias without linking) and lists them on /today and via graph-query.mjs unlinked; CLAUDE.md LINT bullet updated. 3 generic-alias hits left for the human ("human-agent collaboration" on Anthropic/OpenAI; a Mollick alias on Match Process Weight).
