+2026-08-02 census input (dev->minted rename, punkshell 0.43.0): the layout `src/vfs/_config` boot
+mains are OUTSIDE the thin-layout sync channel (make.tcl/build.tcl/manifests/gitignore.in only) -
+the project-0.1 layout's punk_main.tcl was found 285 lines behind canonical (pre-G-033 vintage) and
+was token-swept in place rather than upgraded. The census should record each derived project's
+_config vintage, and the reconciliation/pull design (G-027) should decide whether _config joins the
+sync channel. The package_mode rename (dev -> minted, clean break) adds to every stale kit's
+catch-up delta: kits accept only the mode vocabulary they were baked with.
