jml 3b5f88b4f0 feat(aphoria): implement claims architecture (A1-A5) with verify engine, corpus, coverage, and explain 
Complete Aphoria claims system overhaul:
- A1: Rename ExtractedClaim to Observation (extractors produce observations, not claims)
- A2: Add AuthoredClaim with full provenance, invariants, and authority tiers
- A3: Verify engine comparing observations against authored claims, CLI + formatters
- A4: Corpus as first-class assertions with predicate indexing, authority lens, trust packs
- A5: Coverage analysis, explain/docs generation, self-audit extractor, claim suggester skill

Also includes: 42 extractors updated for Observation type, verifiable_predicates trait,
conflict detection with comparison modes, claims TOML persistence, Grafana dashboard,
backup/restore scripts, and comprehensive test coverage.

# Episteme (StemeDB)
A probabilistic knowledge graph database that stores Claims, not Facts. Append-only Merkle DAG with read-time resolution via Lenses.
**Core Concept:** "Git for Truth" - conflicting assertions coexist, resolved at query time through Consensus, Recency, Authority, or custom Lenses.

## Roadmap Maintenance
Two files, strict separation:
| File | Contains | When to modify |
|------|----------|----------------|
| `roadmap.md` | Current + future work only | Add new phases, update task status |
| `roadmap-archive.md` | Completed phases (1-7, 8A, MVP) | Move items when phase completes |
**Rules:**
- When a phase completes: Move entire phase section to archive, update status table in both files
- When adding tasks: Add to current phase in `roadmap.md` with `- [ ]` checkbox format
- When completing tasks: Change `- [ ]` to `- [x]`, add brief implementation notes
- Keep `roadmap.md` under 500 lines — if it grows, archive more aggressively
- Current phase always has "🎯" marker in status table
**Task format:**
```markdown
- [ ] **P1.2 Feature Name**: Brief description
- [ ] Subtask one
- [ ] Subtask two
```
**Phase completion checklist:**
1. All tasks marked `[x]` in `roadmap.md`
2. Cut entire phase section, paste into `roadmap-archive.md`
3. Update status tables in both files
4. Update "Current Focus" in `roadmap.md` header
## Critical Rules
- **Append-Only:** NEVER mutate existing Assertions. Create new ones.
- **Content-Addressed:** Assertion ID = BLAKE3 hash of content.
- **No Unwrap:** NEVER use `unwrap()` or `expect()` in production code. CI enforces via `clippy::unwrap_used` and `clippy::expect_used` at deny level.
- **Defensive Writes:** All writes go through WAL with fsync.
- **Zero-Copy:** Use `rkyv` for serialization. ALWAYS use `stemedb_core::serde::{serialize, deserialize}` — NEVER use raw `AllocSerializer` in production code.
- **Instrument Critical Paths:** Use `#[instrument]` on public methods in WAL, storage, ingestion, and lens code. Include meaningful fields (key_len, payload_len, offset, candidates_count, lens).
- **Structured Logging:** Use `tracing` (info!, warn!, error!) instead of `println!`/`eprintln!`. Clippy enforces via `print_stdout`/`print_stderr` at warn level. CLI binaries (e.g., `stemedb-sim`) may use `#![allow()]` for user-facing output.
- **Document Changes:** Update `ai-lookup/` when adding new types/concepts. Keep skills in sync with code.
- **No Git Operations:** NEVER use git stash, git branch, git checkout, or any git operations unless the user explicitly tells you to.
- **No GitHub Workflows:** We use pre-commit hooks, not GitHub Actions CI.

## Latent Signal (latent/)
Python CLI tools for adverse event signal detection. Different rules from Rust crates:
**Allowed:**
- `print()` for user-facing CLI output (these are scripts, not libraries)
- `except Exception as e:` for CLI error handling (log and continue)
**Required:**
- **Environment Variables for URLs:** NEVER hardcode `localhost` URLs without env fallback
- Use `os.getenv("VAR", "http://localhost:...")` in Python
- Use `process.env.VAR || 'http://localhost:...'` in TypeScript
- **StemeDB Integration:** New ingestors should use `StemeDBClient` pattern from `adk-agent/`, not write to JSONL files
