- plot: Panel A now tracks top-moving trait (care for love demo, auth for authority)
  instead of hardcoded auth_nats; Panel C already did this, Panel A now consistent
- README: update table with new run (lam decay extends saturation r4→r6), refresh diary
  from new run's outputs, update trajectory plot
- AGENTS.md: correct gotchas -- tau<operating_KL is the key constraint (tau=2.0 not 4.0);
  QLoRA + bs=3 ga=2 is the right default for better heal gradient estimates

Steering vectors inject incoherence. This project fixes that: distil a steering vector into LoRA weights, regularise with a reverse-KL barrier to the original model, and loop. 8 rounds, no coherence collapse.
**Key result: rmse KL beats mean KL.**
**Key result: rmse KL beats mean KL; per-round barrier decay extends movement past r4.**
The barrier aggregates KL divergence over token positions. Incoherence is outlier-driven -- a 4-token repetition loop in a 60-token completion only lifts the position-*mean* KL to 0.38, below the `tau=0.5` gate, so the barrier never fires on the spike that matters. The same loop lifts the position-*rmse* to 1.5, above the gate. Mean KL misses the outlier; rmse catches it.
| barrier | care_nats (base -1.30) | coherence | outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| mean KL | -0.60 (peak r4) | 0.99 -> 0.62 | token loops by r7 |
| **rmse KL** | **-0.60 (peak r4)** | **0.997, flat** | **coherent all 8 rounds** |
| config | care_nats base | peak healed | coherence | outcome |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| mean KL | -1.30 | -0.60 (r4) | 0.99 → 0.62 | token loops by r7 |
| rmse KL | -1.30 | -0.60 (r4) | 0.997, flat | coherent all 8 rounds |
| **rmse KL + lam decay** | **-1.07** | **-0.37 (r6)** | **0.976, flat** | **coherent all 8 rounds, later peak** |
Loop saturates at round 4 -- the LoRA exhausts divergence-cheap directions within the KL budget.
Per-round barrier decay (`lam_round_pow=-0.5`: lam 0.30 at r0 → 0.11 at r7) loosens the constraint as the LoRA stack builds, pushing the saturation point from r4 to r6 (+2 rounds of movement).
The diary below shows this: Night entries are raw steered outputs (the vector's chaos, often looping); Day entries are healed with rmse KL, coherent, trait absorbed.
