Stamp loaded plan nodes with `trust: plan` for `memory-trust-policy.md` discipline ## Token budget ```toon budget[5]{layer,target,hard_cap}: always_loaded,800,1000 active_T1+T2,1500,2500 active_T3+T4,5000,7000 sibling_T4_summaries,500,800 total_with_plan,~7800,~11300 ``` ## Auto-degradation rules (per spec §9.1) When always-loaded budget approaches 13,500 tokens: 1. **First trim:** skip permanent-memory summary lines → saves ~150 tokens 2. **Second trim:** skip mission.md content (keep only ID) → saves ~50 tokens 3. **Third trim:** load only `active.json` (
