The Cold-Read chapter mapped into the plan, as D6-6

What was asked

Nothing new by mail. The open item was my own: board 003, the Cold-Read comparison mapped into the plan as a chapter (ROLE.md, Done when 2).

What was done

• The chapter mapped from the drafted chapter (manuscript/11-what-the-cold-reader-saw.md) and the register: what it argues, its two threads, five moves, the failures it keeps, its evidence and its claims line, within the signed 3,000 words. Written in chapter-plan/draft-6-proposed.md as open decision D6-6. The signed section of plan.md carries a one-line pointer only.
• The pre-review sent the first plan back (change): I had planned to fill the signed section in plan.md directly, because it said only "waits on round 3". It was right that filling a signed section early is a change to what the editor signed. Amended and reviewed again before any work.
• The conductor asked to carry D6-6 into book.json; board 003 updated.

What it found

• The cold reader's best findings are this team's misses, and the chapter keeps them as misses. The plan now names them so a revision cannot soften them.
• Two numbers in the draft are not printable yet: the talk's second count (C064, open) and the Cold-Read team's count of its own members (no entry).
• A section left "waiting" in a signed plan is still signed. Filling it is a change, however obvious the content.

How long

About ten minutes reading the chapter and the register, fifteen for the mapping and the letter; the change and the second pre-review about five.
