C1: two entries the optimization lens can cite for the model/effort axis,
both read out of the primary sources in this session rather than from the
plan's 2026-07-14 summary of them.
Verifying corrected the plan's own numbers: effort is settable in SIX
places, not five (/effort, the /model slider, --effort,
CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL, settings effortLevel, skill/subagent
frontmatter), the default is high on every supporting model EXCEPT Opus
4.7 (xhigh), and the level count is model-dependent (Opus 4.6 and Sonnet
4.6 have no xhigh).
- BP-MODEL-001: subagent `model` defaults to `inherit`, so a subagent
that names no model costs what the session costs; the documented pin
is overridable by CLAUDE_CODE_SUBAGENT_MODEL and per-invocation model
- BP-MODEL-002: effort is an axis separate from model choice, and higher
is not universally better (`max` "may show diminishing returns and is
prone to overthinking")
- both carry the 2026-07-07 model/effort blog as a corroborating source
with a real `published` date, so B1's evidence-age rule has teeth:
measured stale with reasons ['evidence-age'] at a reference date 378
days past publication while their verified stamps are pristine. The
docs pages themselves get NO published date — they carry none, and
guessing one in the field whose whole job is dating evidence is the
lie the rule exists to catch
- new blanket guard: every corroborating source must carry a parseable
published date. Without it newestEvidenceMs() returns null and the
entry stays green on evidence of any age — a silent hole. Seen red
against its own defect before it was trusted
- knowledge-refresh-cli's stale branch no longer expires on every new
entry: its reference date has to sit after every `verified` stamp, was
bumped once for BP-SUB-001 and would have needed a third bump now, so
it moves to a date no stamp can reach
Register 14 -> 16 entries. Frozen v5.0.0 snapshots untouched (no scanner
output changes); suite 1579/0.
