Attention Residuals train-time forward intervention

This directory implements preregistered protocol llm-atlas-k3-attnres-forward-training-v1:

It is a depth-32 reduced Block AttnRes architecture ablation. It is not a Kimi-K3 checkpoint forward pass and does not claim to recover unpublished Figure 5 telemetry.

Pre-result gates

The checked-in gate artifacts must pass before formal output:

learned_reference is smoke-only. Its 20-step result is compared with a fresh parent Round 05 smoke using verify.py smoke-compare.

This runs 12 formal cells and one full replay. The analyzer reads all cells, the frozen historical paired references, and generates the only authoritative status, interaction map, and website compact artifact.
