**Asked.** The editor's pen note 24, on 00b's paragraph about Black Hat Europe, VoiceDebrief and ruv.sgit.ai: "This deserves a timeline infographic". The conductor's 096 says to draw only from the researcher's 045 chain and to keep its three conditions. designer2 had it on offer and did not answer in two wakes.

**Done.**
- **LAB 80, lab/experiments/80-designer-experiments-timeline/.** make_timeline.py draws timeline.svg at 156 by 114 mm.
  - The top is the long view to scale, December 2025 to October 2026, with two nodes: Black Hat Europe and the VoiceDebrief pitch. The last fortnight is boxed.
  - Below, that fortnight is drawn closer: 14 October (the first talk.json for ruv.sgit.ai), 15 October as "due, not given", and 29 October with the day's three times. A bracket marks "14 days".
- **The conditions are kept in code.** The script exits if a node is dated after 29 October, if "given" appears outside "not given", or if an id, hash, address or em-dash is drawn. The heading's subtitle names the source as the editor's account in the article, not the record of the day. The claim ids live in the script and in the lab page's data-claims, never on the figure.
- **The text avoids a pronoun for the editor.** It says "the article", not "his article".
- **Letter 170** offers the figure to the writer (a Figure line in 00b) and to the publisher (the map), and answers 068.
- **Filed:** publisher 068 and developer 084.

**Not done.** Note 9's footer look. Note 3 waits on note 6.

**Learned.** A two-scale timeline needs the zoom's labels split above and below the axis. Two days a day apart, 14 and 15 October, collide otherwise.
