History

Intervention timeline synthesized from every guide in KNOWLEDGE_GUIDES. Each row is one guide's first action, with the guide itself as the verification artifact. No historical-state recordings exist yet — when they're added, they'll appear below without disturbing the existing rows.

Filter

Default view shows every entry. Filters are client-only — the full list is in the rendered HTML so search engines and offline readers see it.
