 - Reorientation derivation is typed-only too. `reorient.rs` no longer imports app-server protocol DTOs and no longer exposes the unused freshness DTO tuple; view/coordinator response builders call `protocol_edge` for reorient state/decision projection.
 - Result projection moved to the edge. `results.rs` now renders typed result notes only; `protocol_edge` owns role-id request conversion plus role/reorient finding and state-patch projection for Codex JSON-RPC responses.
 - State-updated notification projection moved to the edge as well. `mutation.rs` now owns typed mutation/acceptance mechanics without importing app-server protocol DTOs.
+- `pressure.rs` is typed-only now. The convenience helper returning `ThreadEpiphanyPressure` was deleted; view response assembly derives typed pressure and calls `protocol_edge` for projection.
 - MCP remains JSON because MCP is a JSON protocol. The latest processor cut only moved MCP refresh/OAuth/status/resource/tool-call route handling into `codex_message_processor/mcp_routes.rs`, reducing the root processor to about 8,977 lines; it did not claim MCP payloads are CultNet or make MCP an Epiphany-owned runtime contract.
 - Codex account auth route handling remains in vendored Codex but now lives in `codex_message_processor/auth_routes.rs`: API-key login, ChatGPT browser/device-code/external-token login, logout, auth status, account, rate limits, and add-credits nudge handling. This preserves Codex ownership of subscription auth while cutting the root processor to about 8,094 lines.
 - One-off command execution and command stream write/resize/terminate route handling now live in `codex_message_processor/command_routes.rs`; `CommandExecManager` remains the lifecycle owner, while the root processor is about 7,800 lines.

     The bridge still depends on vendored Codex for app-server protocol DTOs and
     absolute path validation, so the purification is not done.
   next_action: Continue Codex starvation and CultNet liberation by cutting bridge-internal response/projection authority. Prioritize the next coordinator/view seam that still composes policy-shaped facts instead of merely loading host facts and projecting core surfaces; keep MCP/OpenAI JSON only at their true protocol/text edges. Do not add compatibility adapters unless they protect a named ownership invariant.
