Owner

Frontmatter on every page except index.md: source_of_truth, last_verified,
verified_by. Applied to the three claim pages now, before the stage-2 pages exist,
so retrofitting is not a later cost. The lexicon carries source_of_truth n/a.

source_of_truth is written path#symbol rather than path:line. A line number goes
stale on any unrelated edit above it, and no date-based check can notice; a symbol
survives refactors. Check 6 therefore resolves the value - file exists, symbol
grep-present - instead of only validating the date.

verified_by is agent-and-host (hermes-debby, codex-valhala) so a model swap does
not make the ledger ambiguous.

Date arithmetic goes through python3 because date -d and date -j disagree between
GNU and BSD userland, and python3 is already a repository dependency. If it is
missing, check 6 prints SKIP and does not silently pass.

Verified by probe before committing - six distinct failures, one per branch:
missing frontmatter; symbol absent from the cited file; date 620 days old;
malformed date; impossible date (2026-02-31); future date. With the probes removed
the run is 47 passes, 0 failures, exit 0.
