Imagination pass that admitted cut specs 0a through 7. Facts re-probed at
Bifrost bf83a93 and on the host; the from-memory prior-art list is replaced
by a citation of docs/research/anonymous-vote-stuffing-prior-art.md.

The Imagination map of 2026-10-08, committed as the target document of the
concept-mill-votes campaign. Typed invariants, rulings and cut specs live in
the eureka mind.

A failed entry stamped ahead of the clock (host clock stepped forward then
corrected) is eligible now instead of waiting out the skew; the next attempt
rewrites the stamp. The WATCHDOG_NOTICE_NOW_MS env var is deleted: the reader
reads Date.now(), and tests fix it with a --import preload (tests/fake-clock.mjs).
The unknown-entry tests now rerun far past the backoff so a retried unknown fails.

Ruling notice-retry-policy. The five-attempt cap and its terminal
"exhausted" state are gone. A failed entry is eligible again once
min(2^(attempts-1), 60) minutes have passed since its last journal
update; a run inside the delay skips it without spawning the bridge.
Every attempt keeps the same nonce. The exit status is non-zero while
any entry is unknown or has failed 3 or more times, and retries go on.
status shows nextEligibleAt for failed entries.
The clock is one now() that WATCHDOG_NOTICE_NOW_MS can override, like
the bridge timeout override, so tests drive the backoff without sleeping.
The process summary field "exhausted" is renamed "failing". A journal
entry whose updatedAt is not a date is now refused as
journal-entry-invalid, since the delay is measured from it.
All commits build.

Tests only, plus wording. No change to what the reader or bridge does.
- A spawn timeout and a spawn error (ENOBUFS from a bridge that floods
stdout) record unknown, are never re-posted, and block the closure.
WATCHDOG_NOTICE_BRIDGE_TIMEOUT_MS overrides the 60 s timeout so the test
reaches that branch; the default is unchanged.
- A 500/502/503/429 answer to the message POST exits 75 from the bridge, and
through the reader is retried with the same nonce until it completes.
- allowed_mentions {parse: []} is asserted in the posted body; status exits
non-zero while an entry is unknown and zero when none is.
- The bridge comment and docs/watchdog-notice.md no longer call a non-2xx
answer "definite": it is retried with the same nonce, relying on
enforce_nonce inside Discord's window, and may double-send if Discord acted
on a 5xx outside it.
Builds. Two tests fail on Windows (SIGKILL status), as before; they pass on
Yggdrasil.

Fix batch for Soul pass s1 (spec r3):
- Delete prune-on-absence and its test. Absence from Idunn's store no longer
deletes a journal entry, so an empty or restored store never re-sends.
- discord-dm exits 75 only when no message can have been sent (arguments,
token, DM channel open, non-2xx on the message POST). The reader records
failed for 75 only; any other non-success without a message id is unknown
and is never re-posted.
- Subject grammar is Idunn's require_id; the notice puts it in backticks.
- Times are bounded to the Date range; notice text is built before the
running entry is written.
Builds and passes on Linux. On Windows the two tests that SIGKILL the reader
cannot pass (process.kill does not deliver a signal there).

tools/watchdog-notice.mjs is a one-shot reader. It reads Idunn's incident
store unlocked with SingleFileMessagePackBackingStore.pullAll, sends one opening
and one closing DM per incident through bifrost-bridge.mjs, and keeps a
bifrost.watchdog_notice_execution.v1 journal: a running entry becomes unknown
and is never re-posted, a failed one is retried with the same nonce up to five
times, terminal entries are pruned once Idunn retires the incident. The exit
status is the delivery-failure signal.
discord-dm accepts --nonce (at most 25 chars) and sends nonce with
enforce_nonce so a retry inside Discord's window returns the original message.
The tests run the CLI against the store bytes Idunn wrote (fixture from
GameCult/Idunn 7f7528b3) with a counting bridge double, and once through the
real bridge with fetch stubbed. docs/watchdog-notice.md states the CultLib
>= 8cb3b728 floor.
