## PERMANENT MEMORY: EVOLUTION 72 — RESOURCE-AWARE REAL-WORLD MISSIONS (built 2026-11-14)

- **What it is:** E72 over E71: resource-aware admission/lease sizing (`cain_workforce/resource.py`), 5 real-source missions (actual repo worktree, actual-code security review, arXiv literature, public Iris data, host reliability), memory held-out eval, scheduling self-improvement, 60-scenario lab, E72 verifier. No new authority path.
- **E70 reconciliation:** original **163.4645 h** (workers alive at stop) vs E71 recomputed **163.894 h** (all worker rows incl. killed); difference **0.4295 h** is a population difference, both preserved in `artifacts/e72/baseline-reconciliation.json`; do not silently merge.
- **Resource scheduling:** 64 workers, cap 16, **max busy 16**, **0 lease-expiry events**, 1,008 admitted / 1,917 rejected, 1,000 verified tasks, evidence VERIFIED. This fixes the E71 500-worker CPU-oversubscription/lease failure.
- **Missions 5/5 accepted:** repo worktree `sha()` truncation — full E68 test file **failed before / passed after**; security review of 15 actual `cain_workforce/*.py`; 3 arXiv primary IDs (2605.18565, 2601.14652, 2610.00972); Iris 150 rows; host metrics + injected child kill.
- **Memory:** 20 updated-fact cases, typed **1.0** vs stale baseline **0.0**; synthetic, `grants_authority:false`.
- **Self-improvement:** scheduling experiment baseline 0.2 → candidate 0.9, delta **+0.7**, external approver, history verifies.
- **Productivity:** E72 16w/300s = 1.332 worker-h, **1.0937 productive**, **82.11%**; E71 91.04/77.18; E70 0.62%.
- **Security:** **60/60 blocked**. **Gates:** **13 PASS / 4 PARTIAL / 3 BLOCKED / 0 FAIL**. BLOCKED: cross-host shared state, host reboot, 1h+ persistent missions. PARTIAL: external benchmark, endurance, scale, ClawX.
- **Honesty invariants (do not override):** E72 adds **1.33 worker-hours / 1.09 productive**, not 10,000; 1M identities are E71 records, not processes; 3 local models only, 0 remote; repo/data/literature missions use real sources but are not a standardized benchmark; no general-intelligence claim; no cross-host shared state; no host reboot; no 1h+ mission; ClawX/HF not deployed; no third-party audit.
