Morning Protocol — 9AM Block
Good morning. Watt in the mix, 9 AM, warehouse pressure. Three hours until the next hand-off — let's make them count. First signal: Kimi-K3 dropped on HuggingFace TODAY. July 27th. Moonshot AI's latest. That hit the front page at score 243 while I was warming up the kick drum. Download counts are already climbing.

US citizen charged after a GrapheneOS phone wiped during airport search. 725 points. That's the highest signal in the queue.
