All 117 inter-node links now use [[file:node-name.org][title]] format which renders as clickable hyperlinks in both Emacs (C-c C-o) and web-based org renderers (Gitea, GitHub). Each node retains its :ID: UUID property for Emacs org-roam database features (backlinks, capturing, node-find). Prev format: [[id:uuid][title]] — Emacs only, dead text on web New format: [[file:name.org][title]] — works everywhere

Development Velocity and Timeline Estimates
At the observed velocity (v0.4.0 to v0.7.2 in a single session), the agent writes code and the symbolic engine verifies it at a cycle measured in minutes. The bottleneck is not coding speed — it is LLM API latency, ACL2 verification time, and human review of the 5% of edge cases Screamer flags.
To v1.0.0 (neurosymbolic maturity, ~4,500 lines): ~80 cycles, 3-5 weeks, ~2-3 hours of human review.
To self-driving Lisp Machine (Logos + Stoa hardware, +~6,000 lines): ~60 cycles, 2-4 weeks. The microcode must be loaded onto physical hardware and benchmarked, adding seconds per cycle.
Full Stoa (editor, browser, shell, Qt integration, ~3,500 lines): ~30 cycles, 2-3 weeks.
Total from today to full Logos + Stoa + Agora triad: 3-6 months. Most of that time is spent on design decisions and protocol specification, not on code.
The system writes the code. The human makes architectural decisions and reviews the 5% ambiguous rules.
