Treat Procedure Freshness carefully:\n   - If the scorecard says freshness is not scored or undefined because execution timestamps are unavailable, do NOT treat that as a critical freshness failure.\n   - If the scorecard indicates procedures with no execution history, report that as a Procedure Execution Coverage anomaly instead, and list the affected procedures.\n   - Only treat Procedure Freshness as actionable when it is based on real execution recency, not procedure creation time.\n3. If composite ≥ 90 or no metric is actionable, log and stop.\n4. bun /home/workspace/Skills/zouroboros-prescribe/scripts/prescribe.ts --live\n5. Governor check: if playbook REQUIRES APPROVAL, email the user with the prescription and stop.\n6. bun /home/workspace/Skills/zouroboros-evolve/scripts/evolve.ts --prescription <path>\n7. For Graph Connectivity D-playbook: iterate up to 5 additional cycles if the metric is still below target.\n8. bun /home/workspace/Skills/zouroboros-introspect/scripts/introspect.ts --json --store (post-flight)\n9. If any metric regressed by > 2 %, mark the cycle a failure.\n10. Email a report with before/after composite, targeted metric, playbook used, the full scorecard, and a separate Procedure Execution Coverage section when relevant.\n\nAll cycle results are stored as memory episodes tagged [[zouroboros.introspection]] or [[zouroboros.evolution]]."
