    "title": "Neon stopped making a long proof run look like a stuck deploy.",
    "summary": "The RiddleNode lane now has a one-intent smoke loop and heartbeat output, so agents can quickly prove the live Neon lab target before running the fuller intent matrix.",
    "whatWentWrong": "The fast loop had already moved off Amplify, but the single-browser intent matrix still ran several claim-candidate loops inside one Playwright call with no progress output until the browser returned.",
    "whatRiddleCaught": "The latest loop exposed the slow layer: the browser proof call, not RiddleNode publishing.",
    "whyItMatters": "Fast proof loops need operator confidence; a short smoke path proves the current target is live, instrumented, and producing review packets before a fuller matrix run.",
    "whatChanged": "LilArcade added intent-id filtering, a one-intent RiddleNode smoke script, and heartbeat progress messages for the single-browser runner.",
    "whatThisDoesNotProve": "It does not prove subjective mix quality, every intent, or that the candidate should be promoted.",
