Add typed agency pressure surface

 - The old memory-organ script family, legacy moderation-state template, and legacy moderation context exporter have been deleted. Do not revive their cleanup, agency, dream, vector-incubation, or mirror-repair behavior as compatibility scaffolding.
 - `scripts/run-void-memory-maintenance.ps1` is the first replacement memory-maintenance organ. It builds a bounded context from typed memories/incubation/candidates/runtime, loads `prompts/void-memory-maintenance.md`, and applies only allowed memory/incubation/candidate typed operation proposals through `scripts/void-self-state.mjs`. In sleep mode, memory pressure sets `sleepDirective.forceDistillation`; a real model pass returning no operations under pressure fails visibly.
 - Rumination does not write durable memory. It can only emit `record_short_term_memory`; sleep maintenance must promote short-term records with `apply_memory_distillation`, merge them into incubation and prune them, or prune them outright. A real sleep pass that leaves short-term records behind fails.
+- Agency has a typed pressure surface now: `upsert_agency_pressure` / `retire_agency_pressure` own discomforts, active tensions, self-advocacy requests, and world-advocacy requests. Candidate interventions are possible speech/actions emerging from pressure, not the pressure itself. `npm run moderation:agency-pressure:fixture` verifies the pressure enters `.cc`, renders in self-state summary, and affects mood speaking pressure.
 - Most of the deterministic legacy translation and retention code is recent compensator cruft from failed attempts to manually clean an exploded state file. Do not preserve it as an earned organ. Architect the state boundary so that bad state cannot enter, and keep only narrow historical migrations for old debris.
 - The desired agency shape is typed state operations plus derived/model-owned policy, not a permanent sermon generator in maintenance code.
 - Sleep/distillation now has a runner boundary and prompt contract, but the substantive model behavior still needs live exercising. The invariant is fixed: concrete subject, claim/question, evidence refs, live tension, and future-action implication survive compression. Bulk can die. Meaning does not get put through the office shredder and called a dream.

 6. The parent runner applies allowed operations through `scripts/void-self-state.mjs`.
 7. In sleep mode, the context carries `sleepDirective.forceDistillation` when there is short-term memory pressure. A real model pass that returns no operations under pressure fails visibly, and any real sleep pass that leaves short-term memory behind fails instead of letting yesterday's residue haunt the state. The fixture smoke exercises this path with a fake Codex child so the parent validation and application machinery are tested without relying on live inference.

+1. Rumination and memory maintenance may propose `upsert_agency_pressure` or `retire_agency_pressure`.
+2. The typed service validates that each pressure has a concrete target, claim or question, action implication, intensity, and either evidence refs/source memory ids or an explicit `evidence:missing` tag.
+3. The self-state summary renders active agency pressure separately from queued speech candidates.
+4. Mood drift reads active and ready agency pressure into speaking pressure, but it does not manufacture speech text from it.
