Builds path (b) from §26 -- a leaf permanently serving two DIFFERENT
compatible programme codes at once, extending leaf-sharing's same-code
multiplicity mechanism to different-but-compatible codes. Architect-declared
`co_locate` pairs (validated against interchangeable()'s S1-S4 bounds, no
transitive closure so the b3v chain problem can't recur), threaded through
graph.py's checks via a new leaf_codes() resolver and fitness.py's quality
terms (additive size, stricter-of-both width/proportion). Construction-time
only, gated behind `multi_use` (default OFF, bit-identical when off).
End-to-end A/B (20k evals x 3 seeds x 2 programmes) came back net negative:
harbor-house -4.0% but health-centre +24.5% worse (3/3 seeds), because
fusing different codes' shape targets via stricter-of-both can impose a
tighter joint constraint than either code needed alone, which the tightly-
packed health-centre programme can't absorb. Written up as DESIGN.md §33;
multi_use stays default OFF, no default-flip recommended.

homemaker-py-9wi's 2-opt adjacency polish (collapse_global's local_search
kwarg) was validated on harbor-house alone; this closes homemaker-py-cdl
by extending the A/B sweep to programme-house (34 more files, 46 total):
0 regressions, 2 improvements, rest identical.
collapse_global's own default stays False since it also runs every
fitness eval via collapse_insearch (qpk) on the unmerged tree, where the
2-opt pass would add cost to a hot path the sweep never measured.
Instead default it on at the two one-shot finish-time call sites:
homemaker-collapse --local-search, and a new homemaker-evolve
--collapse-local-search wired through driver.collapse_best's
**collapse_kw.
Adds operators.mutate_ruin_recreate: un-divides one wing of a storey and
rebuilds it with the same adjacency-aware constructor the seeders use
(_assign_adjacency_aware, generalised with a new `scope` param), seeded
from the surviving circulation bordering the wing. Gated behind
enable_ruin_recreate (default off) / --ruin-recreate, same pattern as
reassociate/bridge_circulation.
A/B (qpk protocol, DESIGN.md §23): initial uniform-weight run was
underpowered (fired ~1/32 children), null. A weight=3.0 follow-up
(_MUTATION_WEIGHTS["ruin_recreate"]) showed a statistically significant
win on programme-house across 15 seeds (8W/1L/6T, mean fails 7.07->6.00,
Wilcoxon p=0.041) but no consistent effect on harbor-house across 8 seeds
(3W/2L/3T). Kept default off pending a size-threshold follow-up.

Adds operators.mutate_bridge_circulation: retypes the cheapest path between
two disconnected circulation components to circulation, directly clearing a
'level N not connected' fail instead of relying on the qi6 graded comparator
key (measured negative, DESIGN.md §18). Gated off by default via
driver.search's enable_bridge_circulation flag and evolve.py
--bridge-circulation, mirroring enable_reassociate's clean-toggle pattern.
qi6/qpk-protocol A/B (DESIGN.md §21) is directionally positive but mixed at
N=3/N=5 (never worse on total fails; clears 2/5 baseline not-connected fails
vs qi6's 0/4; one seed's RNG-trajectory divergence adds 2 new not-connected
fails) — kept default off pending a larger-N confirmation sweep
(homemaker-py-qjg) and a mutation-weight bump experiment (homemaker-py-lj3).

20-seed programme-house sweep (vs the original 5) resolves the qpk A/B's
mixed 3/5 result as small-sample noise around a true small positive: mean
fails 7.95->7.10 (~10.7%), 11W/6L/3T, paired t-test p~0.028. Flips
collapse_insearch's default from OFF to ON in evolve.py and driver.py
(_overrides_for/_fitness_for/_evaluate/search/polish_finish); opt out with
--no-collapse-insearch. fitness.Fitness itself is unchanged.

Runs the 94g finish-time cell↔room collapse inside every fitness eval
(collapse_insearch conf flag, default off, bit-identical when off) instead
of once at the end, so search optimises the collapsed objective directly.
Plumbed through fitness.py/driver.py/evolve.py the same way superpose/
conn_grade are; --collapse-insearch CLI flag.
A/B validated against the xi7 protocol (equal budget, both arms finished
with standard finish-time --collapse): POSITIVE, opposite of the 9o5/xi7
prior. harbor-house ON wins 3/3 (mean fails 80.3->72.0); programme-house
mixed 3/5 (mean fails 8.4->7.8). Kept default off pending a larger
programme-house sample; documented as a working opt-in for harbor-house-
scale-or-larger programmes. Full writeup in DESIGN.md §20.

The dominant post-collapse fail is the binary "level N not connected",
which is flat across fragmentation (a 7-component storey scores the same
as a 2-component one), so the outer search has no gradient toward
connected circulation. A finish-time convert-to-circulation repair was
prototyped and measured NEGATIVE (195->560 fails: bridging needed rooms
costs more missing-room fails than the one binary fail it clears).
Instead add graph.circulation_connectivity(G) = largest-circ-component
fraction, summed over storeys onto the score_with_grade proximity channel
(conf flag conn_grade; replaces the §11.4 leaf-grade there). It is a
secondary comparator key only — scalar fitness and fail count stay
byte-identical — restoring the gradient the binary fail lacks. Threaded
through driver (_overrides_for/_fitness_for/_evaluate/search; enabling it
implies the grade key) and evolve --conn-grade (default off).
A/B on full-budget runs pending; short smoke run confirms plumbing.
Tests: tests/test_conn_grade.py x9 (fraction contract, non-circ ignored,
monotone under (dis)connection, score/fail invariance); 276 pass.

Public-access term (preserve_public_access, default on): when the building's
only street access is an l/k ROOM neighbour of a public outside leaf (no
circulation fallback — an existential building-level check the per-leaf
objective can't see), that leaf is pinned (kept, its demand slot decremented)
so the collapse can't drop "no outside public access". Best layout 15→13
becomes 15→12 with zero new fails; sweep total 172→171, still monotone.
collapse_finish(root, **kw) -> (tree, base, coll, applied): keep-better wrapper,
scores on throwaway copies (score_with_fails merges in place), returns the
collapse only if fails don't increase.
Wiring: driver.collapse_best updates result.best (lineage +collapse, canonical
re-score); evolve.py runs it after the sharing polish behind --collapse/
--no-collapse (default on). New homemaker-collapse CLI (collapse_cmd.py) applies
it to an existing .dom, writing <stem>.collapsed.dom.
tests/test_collapse_global.py: demand-set relabel, level hard constraint, c/o/s
exclusion, no-op safety, keep-better/unmerged. 267 pass.

Ramp the leaf-share grain down within one continuous run (e.g. 4->3->2->off),
carrying the whole population across each step — graduated non-convexity over
the single hard sharing->off transition of the §15 finish.
- operators.unfold_shared_leaves(above=cap): unfold only leaves whose share
exceeds the new grain cap, leaving smaller-share leaves collapsed for the
next step. above=1 (default) keeps the full-unfold §15 behaviour.
- driver: max_share override threaded through _overrides_for/_fitness_for/
_evaluate so a phase can rebuild the evaluator at a lower leaf_share_max cap;
search(seed_pop=) evaluates an explicit initial population so a phase hands
its whole population to the next instead of restarting from a single best.
- driver.search_annealed: one phase per descending grain then a de-share
polish; unfold-above-cap between steps; cumulative accounting + grain-tagged
history; honest canonical best (byte-for-byte verified vs homemaker-fitness).
- evolve: --anneal-grain LADDER CLI (self-finishing; §15 finish not applied).
8iv settled the primitive (grid unfold beat the circulation-aware slice), so
the ramp reuses the plain balanced-grid unfold at every step.
Tests: unfold above-cap selectivity, seed_pop seeding, search_annealed phase
stitching / honest finish / degenerate-ladder fallback. 258 pass. DESIGN §16.
Head-to-head A/B on harbor-house still to run; verdict pending (issue open).

Leaf-sharing evolve runs optimised a sharing-credited objective (a shared
leaf of code X with share=k counts as k programme rooms, size re-centred on
k*target) but wrote the un-materialised genome, which the canonical
homemaker-fitness rates catastrophically worse (harbor-house: internal
1.03e-05 vs canonical 6.73e-29, 15 critical missing-room fails).
Fix: before write, driver.polish_finish() unfolds every live shared leaf
into k distinct rooms (operators.unfold_shared_leaves — pays down the count
deficit) then warm-starts a leaf_sharing=False polish search from the
unfolded genome so the materialised rooms get proportion/width/size cleanup.
Returned best.fitness is the canonical score (leaf_sharing off => internal
== canonical). This is yaa's proven unfold-then-polish path, made automatic.
evolve.py: new --polish-budget (env HOMEMAKER_POLISH_BUDGET; -1=auto=
budget//2, 0=unfold+rescore only). Interrupt forces polish_budget=0 for a
fast honest output. Default stays --leaf-sharing on (its topology-search
speed retained; output made honest by the finish). Schedule B in-run
annealing remains homemaker-py-kpu.
Verified (harbor-house 3000+1500): reported polish fitness 4.79788e-27
matches canonical homemaker-fitness exactly, 0 critical fails. Tests: 254
pass (+3 polish_finish).

Interchangeable codes (similar size/width/proportion, compatible level/stack,
no adjacency edge) form equivalence classes derived from the programme. With
--superpose (default off), each fitness eval COLLAPSES every superposed leaf to
its best in-class usage via an optimal supply->demand assignment (brute force
<=C! within cap C=4, scipy Hungarian beyond), then scores the condensed types.
Because collapse re-types on the unmerged tree before all checks, counts /
adjacency / quality are unchanged downstream -- no Node field, no graph/operator
changes -- and default OFF is bit-identical.
- programme.py: derive_interchange_classes + interchangeable (S1-S4, locked
thresholds R_SIZE=1.5/R_WIDTH=1.3/R_PROP=1.5, CLASS_CAP=4)
- fitness.py: collapse_superposition, _best_assignment, _usage_quality;
superpose/superpose_class_cap conf knobs; collapse hooked into _evaluate_full
- driver.py/evolve.py: superpose flag plumbed beside leaf_sharing; --superpose
- tests/test_superposition.py: 17 tests (derivation, assignment, end-to-end)
Closes homemaker-py-9o5 (build); validation A/B is homemaker-py-xi7.
