- check_budget.py counted scripts/__pycache__/*.pyc in its corpus note, so the
same commit reported 27 scripts on a machine that had run the suite and 16
on a clean checkout. The routing gate said 16 throughout; two gates
disagreeing about one tree was the finding.
- TOKENS_PER_CHAR was calibrated against a 67,011-character SKILL.md and the
docstring's arithmetic (0.30 characters-to-tokens) did not describe that
measurement. Re-measured here: 54,983 chars -> 12,906 tokens = 4.260; the
constant and both comments now carry the number this tree measures.
- test_budget_measurement.py pins the corpus exclusion, so a bytecode cache
cannot re-enter the count and quietly change it again.
- .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md carries what CONTRIBUTING.md asks a
contributor for: what was run, the four labels, what has to move with the
change, and the boundary that was not exercised.
