Its first run separated running from working. All three roles handed off with attributed commits; it filed zero level-up proposals, committed "no proposals warranted, evidence base too thin", and opened its audit by naming the problem exactly: no .brain is accessible from the mission filesystem because brains are held in the platform. That is structural. The template's subject is every agent's .brain, which lives in the server's /data/brains volume, and nothing delivers brains into a mission — the same defect class as research and skills having had no delivery channel. It audited the only agent-shaped thing in reach, a ROSTER.md in the scratch repo, and read a guest kernel version as an agent version. Not counted as evidenced. A channel alone would not fix it: per-mission crews carry ~2 KB seed brains with no history, because missions write memory to the repo brain. The template assumes long-lived agents; the platform makes disposable ones. Recorded as a design decision, not patched.
